 We are requested to state that a one- armed man, signing himself as W. l. Fambro, agent, and claiming to come from Cincinnati, Ohio, has been swindling the farmers in this town with bogus new process for making butter. Look. out for him!

 This time it was the editor who blundered. Mir. s, E. Cheney gave $6O0 for two acres of land near the depot and not $500 for one The man who buys of Cheney will have to give thousand and we don't want him looking up old numbers on the Enquirer and claiming that he has been swindled.

 A man and his wife were in town, last week, giving instruction in the art of re- viving and improving photographs by at. taching them to concavo-convex glass. The process was claimed to be new one, but this is mistake. Mir. Judd, our res, ident photographer. was taught it long ago; but, after few experiments, gave il up. It is one of those ''dodges" for mak ing pictures that look rather nicely for { short time. but the process is one tha requires no skill, and the pictures are not permanent. Mir. Judd would be glad te teach classes the "new" art at con siderably less price than was charged by these itinerant artists.
