Stop Your Cough!

The wonderful results and immense sale
of HALES COUGH CORDIAL the Dost
season, ought to convince the most skepti-
cal; still we are going to continue the same
liberal offer that we have made heret ofore,
VIZ: Any person suffering with cold,
cough or sore throat, who will call at Fred i.
). Schroeters Drug Store and purchase a
bottle ofHALE'S COUGH CORDIAL, use
one.half of it, and if they then conclude
that it is doing them no good, they can re-
turn the balance and receive back their
money. Who would not test this medicine
on such liberal terms? No medicine ever
sold in this vicinity that produced such
magical results. All we ask is that Won
will try it.

freight was safe. To be sure his own pocket
book was down in the dressing room with
several dollars in it; but if that was stolen no

Prompt Reinforcement.

When the physical energies are over
tasked or flag through weakness or disease,
they need prompt reinforcement. Renewed
vigor is most speedily supplied through the
medium O. a tonic stimulant, and among
medical resources of that class. Hostetter 5
Stomach Bitters assuredly deserve pre-
eminent place. Weakness, whether con-
stitutional or arising from disease or over
fatigue, cannot be better compensated for
than by a resort to this prime strengthen
ing cordial. The enfeebled invalid, the
convaescent and the aged and infrm find
that it is an unfailng source of vigor aud
comfort. It's combined tonic and Alternative
properties also constitute it an invaluable
remedy for Indigestion, weakness of the Or
gans of urination, constipation, torpidity of
the liver, and many other irregularities and
disabilities, and render it an invaluable
protection againss malaria, as we'll as dis

The Re-appertiOMment.

The bill before the legislature re-appor-
toning the state into Senate and Assembly
districts has passed both houses, The Senate
by 20 to IL and the Assembly by Al to Sc.
By this bill, Jefferson county is divided
into the same number OF districts as before,
viz: Three Assembly districts and one
Senatorial district
lst Assembly District-City of Water
town, (including the 9Th and 9th wards, in
Dodge county, Towns of Watertown,
Ixonia and Concord.
I'd assembly District-Towns Of ASsalan,
Pennington, Lake Mills, Milford, Oakland,
Waterloo, village of Waterloo.
Sd assembly District Towns of Cold
Spring, Hebron, Jefferson, Koshkonong
Palmyra, Sullivan, Sumner
The only change made in the districts
of this county by the re-apportionment, is
by taking off Concord from tie I'd district
and adding it to this (lst) district. The
addition of Concord makes the population
of this assembly district over $1,000
while by taking away Concord The I'd dis
trict is reduced to less than 10000. There
is, we think, an evident unfairness in this.
In swamp a few miles from Water
town three or four foxes have taken up
their abode. Several hunters came with
their hounds feeling sure that they would
cover themselves with glory by taking the
entire lot and bearing them to town in
triu mph. During the hunt each man dis
charged his piece no less than dozen times
and the result was one foA--unlucky animal
fell victim. Night closing upon the
city and the swamp, the Watertown sports
men reluctly gave up the chase and called
in their hounds, but not before the follow
ing occurrence: A farmers boy hearing
the hounds yelling and supposlng that they
were hunting on their own hook as hounds
often do, shouldered his musket, having
previously placed three buckshot upon the
load OF shot already IN 1t and Wended his
way to the swump with the intention of
making the number of worthless dogs one
less. Guided by the yelling he soon found
himself in sight of dog. A good chance
at long range presented itself and placing
eye our boy took aim and fired. Without
utterng sound the hound dropped IN the
tracks. 1t soon recovered and staggering
to its feet took its way. It manifested no
disposition to know what had hurt it, but
proceeded III the same direction in which it
was going when it fell. 1t has not been
back to the swamp since.-Pazmyra Enter

THE FRANK CASE This case that has oc-
cupied the attention of the Circuit Court
for the past.two terms, during nearly two
weeks, involving large expense to Jefer-
son county, was finally decided on Saturday
last, by a verdict of E'not guilty" The
previous trial last fall resulting in dis
agreement of the jury. The case has at
tracted a great deal of attention in both
Dodge and Jefferson counties, and probably
few people can be found who have not ex-
pressed an opinion one way or the other in
the case. To the credit of the District At
torney of Jefferson county, it should be
said hat be has worked with unfinching
zeal to convict the accused, but the evil
dence brought before the jury was hardly
sufficient to convict, being altogether of cir
cumsta1tial character.

Money in Popcorn.

A Chicago paper prints letter from
q boy, or young man, who tried an ex.
pertinent with pop corn. He planted
one acre, and sold Al bushels of corn
for SAT, and the fodder from the one
acre for S., this giving him clear
profit of S27, 40. We commend this
statement to the boys on the farm.
Those who have never grown pop corn
will scarcely credit the statement, but
those who have, and understand how
close the rows can be to each other, and
how many perfect ears every hill turns
out, will not be surprised at the figures.
There are several varieties-whitea and
rice-like kernel-variegated, showing
on one cob many different colOrs-and
all should be planted some distance
from other corn. The yield il always
good, and The ears are nearly uniform
in size. A good article always brings
q good price, and, since popcorn balls
and other preparations in which pop
corn appears to have been in favor,
there has been good demand for it.
Popcorn should be planted on good
soil, and treated generally as other
corn. 1t natures early, and the ground
can be cleared for winter wheat or 9TH
er fall crops.-Rural New Yorker.

Weighiug E1gs.

IT Ia, and for aught / know always
has been, the practice to sell eggs by
the dozen, without any regard to their
real value. There are probably but few
wi ho ever consider the real difference
in the size and weight between a doZ-
en- small and dozen large eggs. Many
of the small eggs in the market will
not weigh a pound to the dozen, while
the largest will weigh over II pounds.
My largest Brehma eggs will weigh
over II rounds to the dozen; they will
average over II pounds. Such eggs are
really cheaper at 40 cents than small
ones at 80 cents a dozen. A Mr.. Har-
ris, of Boston, says he weighed some
of his Plymout Rock eggs, and the
largest weighed 80 ounces to the dozen;
the small sized eggs of the same sort
weighed q ounces. Yet most purcha-
sers would be unwilling to pay any
more for q dozen of Mr.. Harris large
eggs than they would have to pay for a
dozen of the smallest in market. The
time will probably soon come when
eggs will be sold by weight, or stan
dard weigh. for dozen will be estab-
lished by law. There is also as much
difference in the quality as in the size.
am satisfied that feed affects the quail
ity of eggs as much as it affects milk or
butter. Seme eggs are little better than
rotten ones for table use. AS long as
the consumer considers any egg to be
an egg, without any regard to quality
or size or real value, lit .le pains will
be taken to produce better article
