The good weather of Saturday was toe
good to be wasted, so farmers labored
industriously in the fields, and mer.
chants were not as busy as usual.
On Thursday afternoon a terrific storm
of wind, hail and rain passed over the
country to the south of us. Henderson
& Darstis wagon was caught out it and
when it came home it had no covering
to speak of.
Merchants who have goods to sell in
vite customers to call in and see them.
If you find such an invitation in the pa
pers call in and see them.
We owe an apology to Brother Baker
of the Bellevue Local NeuS: Last week
we copied a little speech of Ben Whites
at a Murphy meeting. from the NeuS
and inadvertently gave credit to the
Gazette. The Neus is SO lively local
sheet that we would not deprive it of
any proper credit.

Pimples, Blotches, Boils, ETC., which can
be done by purifying the blood with DIR
Bulls Blood Mixture. Uued everywhere.
The NJ. E. Sunday School Picnic. on
Tuesday last, was pleasant affair. The
attendance was large and everything
passed off agreeably. The picnic was
held at Green Springs.
A new elevator is being erected at the
Eagle Mills, of Mcconnell & Rockwell.
The peculiar appearance THE North
ern horizon, just before the storm on
Sunday evening, attracted much atten-
ton. The storm came up muchike the
one on Monday evening previous, but
was not so severe or of so long continu-
ance.
There is an unusual demand for Hcra-
dies" this year. The farmers need them
badly because the ground is too soft to
admit of using mowers. And several Of
our townsmen-Lew Young and Renz
Hawkins-have had occasion to use them
| this week, both being happy fathers.
Corn, which promised SO well in this
and Wood county has been seriously in
jured in places by the wet weather much
, of it being scalded. With good weather
from this on, however, there will still be
large average crop,though the individ.
usl loss will be heavy.
Wheat is said to be heavier thanit has
been for years, in this county, and il
successfully harvested will be an unpre
cedented crop. The heavy storms did
but slight damage to it, and all that is
needed is good weather to complete the
work.
Fine job work, at low prices, at the
JEFF Office. Call and examine work
and learn prices.
Attention is directed to the advertise
ment of an excursion to Lake Side and
Put-in-Bay, to take place on Tuesday

| A dwelling house in Amanda town
ship belonging to person whose name
we did not learn, was struck by light
ming on Sunday night last, during the
storm, but fortunately no one was in
jured, nor was the house set on fire. The
shingles, cornice, and siding were badly
knocked off
