the u. $. District Court. Not being able TO
furnish the bond, Crowley was remanded to
jail. The evidence adduced before the Com
missioner showed clearly that Crowley was
the man who presented the bill and who re-
ceived the change for IL, and also that he had
tried the same evening to pass II at several
other places. II was also learned that the
bill had been in Crowley's possession in Wes-
ton for two years or more, and that 1t was
well known in that town. The bill itself is
9nOt calculated TO deceive, being most plainly
spurious, and had it not been at night could

A Successful Firm.

For years the readers Of THE TINES have
noticed week in and week out the advertise
ments OF Hostetter & Smith. We can say
nothing that would add to the reputation Of
this frm In the wes'. They have been before
the public for quarter Of . century, and In
every village, hamlet, or settlement, you will
ind In the neighbOrhood q supply Of Hostel
ter's Bitters. They say man should by all
means have in his household copy Of the
bible and of Webster's dictionary, and We
think that he Is crininalIy negligent unless
he keeps constantly on hand Hostetter's Bit
ters; for while his morals and his mind both
need careful training, he should never forget
the laws Of health. Prevention ID better than
cure, and In no manner can disease be 50 we'll
avoided a. by using these Bitters. In Leav.
enWorth we teIieve that HoStetter 4 Smith
alone sell three times as much as any other
medicine drm in the country. The reason of
this great success ID that they keep their
goods up 10 the standard.

LET one of our loved ones be taken
away, and memory recalls . thousand
ssyings to regret. Death quickens recol.
lections painfully. The grave cannot
hide the white faces of those who sleep.
The coffin and the green mound are cruel
magnets. They draw US farther than we
would 60. They force US to remember.
A man never sees so far into human life
as when he looks over o wife's or moth
er's grave. His eyes get wondrous clear
then, and he sees as never before what it
is to love and to be loved; what it is to
injure the feelings of the loved Golden
Rule.
