ALMOST A FIRE.. J. Campbel's
steam shingle mill caught fire on the
roof last Saturday. He had been ran
ming the mill in the forenoon but in the
afternoon the help were away, and
Charlie Field, IL years old, had been
packing shingle, and after eating his
lunch from his little pail, went to the
brook not far away fishing. On his re-
turn he saw the fire OH the roof with
the Goals dropping into the dry saw
dust beneath, and with the little dinner
pail carrying water from the tank, put
out the fire above and beneath, and
saved the mill. Bravo Charlie.
Rev. Charles E. Gordon commenced
his labors with the Congregational
church last Sabbath. The audience was

he will be installed during the present
month. The long needed outside paint
is not on the church yet, but we trust it
will be put on before installation.

IN THE WHOLE HISTORY OF MEDI-
CINE, no preparation has ever performed such
marvellous cures, or maintained SO wide reputa-
ton, as AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL, which is recog-
nized the worlds remedy for all diseases of the
throat and lungs. Its long-continued series of
wonderful cures in all climates has made it univer-
sally known as a safe and reliable agent to employ.
Against ordinary colds, which are the forerunners
of more serious disorders it acts speedily and sure
ly, always relieving suffering, and often saving
life. The protection it affords, by its timely use
in the throat and lung disorders of children makes
it an invaluable remedy to be kept always on hand
in every home No person can afford to be without
it, and those who have once used it never will.
From their knowledge of its composition and Of
fects, Physicians use the CHERRY PICTORIAL extern
sively in their practice, and Clergymen recommend
it. 1t is absolutely certain in its remedial effects,
and will always cure where cures are possible.

What a Tottering Fabric

Is system depleted of vitality and irregul ar
in its functions. 1t is only judicious and
prompt medication which can save it from a
speedy and total collapse. The tonic and
regulating properties of Hostelter's Stomach
Bitters particularly adapt that benign medi-
cine to revive physical vigor and reform those
bodily irregularities which are n barrier to its
permanent restoration. Biliousness and con-
stpation are totally overcome by it, and the
digestive activity and thorough assimilation
which it promotes have the effect OF increas-
ing the vivifying and nourishing qualities Of
the blood. The Bitters are also an excellent
detergent of the vital current since they com
municate a healthy stimulus to the bladder
and kidneys, which are the most important
channels for the escape of its impurities.
Pure, agreeable, and of botanic origin, thor
ough and prompt, but never violent in its ac-
ton, the reasons for the transcendent popu-
larity of this medicine are both cogent and
appreciabe.

A Romantic Murder.

The novelist who is looking for the
plot of frst-class sensational story will
find in the history of romance in real
life parallel to which can scarcely be
found outside the pages of fiction. That
it should have occurred in this evening
of century of railroads and telegraph
lines and newspapers is, perhaps, the
most singular of the whole affair. The
scene is laid in Pickens county, Georgia
First we have the pretty, popular, impet
uous daughter of u respectable citizen
running the usual career of country
belle, winding up, as it properly should,
in matrimony to young fellow of her
own class, upon whom the bonds of wed
lock appear to have hung very lightly.
During the Christmas season of 1877 his
attentions to a lady so enraged the young
wife that she stabbed her to death in
country ball room. Around the wife,
thus become murderess, the husband,
his father and brethren formed a body
guard and fought their way out of the
building where the tragedy was enacted.
With a loyalty and devotion to the guilty
woman rarely witnessed in these prosaic
days, they resolved that she should not
be surrendered to the officers of the law,
and in few days, armed and equipped,
they moved from Pickens county, no one
daring to oppose their progress. In a
short time they disappeared, and the sad
event was gradually dying out of the
memories of ALI save the friends of the
murdered woman.
Recently, however, the fugitives were
party was organized to effect their cap
ture. A long chase, a desperate resist
ance, an attempted rescue, and two prison
cells for husband and wife and baby
child are thus far the completed chapters
of this Georgia romance. A case in which
50 many of the darker as well as the bet
ter qualities of human nature are so curl
ousIy blended seldom finds its way into
the news columns of the daily journals.
