Horse obituary.

Horses like humans are destined 10
turn up their heels" ut times, and wond
their spiritualistic way to horse heaven,
sometimes ut great loss - their owners.
Within the past week, Two prominent
flyers in this vicinity have ended their
earthly eareor, and are nov numbered
among the things which were. On Tues
day, Frank Simpsons SIX year cid Sl,OVo
troLter gave up the ghost, and Mr..
Simpson ls accordingly loser th5 amount
OF valuation placed on the animal, winch
was sired by Toge, dam ShsrttRch, and
was regarded as oDo OF the dust lliters'
in this vicinity. Bag Harry, the pacing
horse owned by Jos SpeIde!. also passed
in lis chips yesterday, after prominent
life on the tWsG. Harry WAS purchased a.
sherilps sale NJ SteubanVI,le by Mr..
SpeiIel for $500, although no was valued
ut much higher price AID ~ his prime
WAS regarded a. among the fastest pacers
then in existence, his recorded time 'e.
ing 2:l9. OF late years, however, he
Las tailed rapidly, being IL years OF age
at the time of his death, but no.with-
standing this fact was able TO perform his
work in =. %, which is considered good
for al old horse. At Wellsburg last fall,
HarrytooiS the first money in the pacing
race, and was taken thence TO Sm;thheld,
Ohio, and entered for the races ut that
place. Bat ri Smithdeld he was poison
cd by parties having big money on
the result and failed TO get away ia the
races. 1t may be that the effects OF his
being poisoned was tho indirect cause OF
his death Mr. Speidel since his owner
ship OF Harry has used him as family
horss, for which purpose there was mono
better.

necessary to the total eradication OF all
bilious attacks, prompt to start the secre.
tions OF the liver, and give q healthy tone
to the entire system. Indeed, 1t is no
ordinary discovery in medical science to
nave invented q remedy for these stub
born complaints, which develope all the
results produced by heretofore free use
of calomel, mineral justly dreaded by
mankind, and acknowledged 10 be des-
tructive In the extreme to the human
system. That the properties OF certain
vegetables comprise all the virtues OF
csiomel without its injurious tendencies,
is now an admitted fact, rendered indis'
putable by scientific researches: and those
who use the Mandrake Ellis Will be fully
satisfied that the best medicines are those
provided by nature In the common herts
and roots OF the fields.
These Pills open the bowels and correct
all bilious arrangements without saliva.

Citizen enters squire's office, very much
enrsged-"Squire, have justices authority
to proceed against persons for SANDER;
Squlre-"Yes, sir; yes, sir; here's the
law on the subject" and he quoted from
the statutes. "What is the nature OF
YOUR case, and who is your slsndererT
Citizen "Well, Mr.. -, insists on
calling me Squire, and be CAD, sir, 1t must
and shall be stopped. I've always borne
the reputation of an honest msn."
The squire gszed at the citizen mo-
ment, snd then, collecting himself for a
final effort, seized the statutes from
which he had been quoting, but too late
70 do injury to the citizen. whose form
disappeared rather suddenly through the
