ASTONISHING Success.

1t is the duty of every person who
has used BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP to
let its wonderful qualities be known to
their friends in curing Consumption,
severe Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneu-
monia, and in fact all throat and lung
diseases. No person can use it without
in mediate relief. Three doses will re-
lieve any case, and we consider it the
euty of all Druggists to recommend it
to the poor dying consumptive, at least
to try one bottle, as 10000 dozen bot
ties were sold last year, and no one
case where it failed was reported. Such
a medicine as the GERMAN SYRUP can
not be too widely KNOWN. Ask your
Druggist about it. Sample bottles to
try scld at 10 cents. Regular size rs
cents. For sale by j. P. Brookins &
Son, Eaton, o., and j. II. Bohn, Cam
den, o.

DANIEL PAYNE, who has been a very

DANIEL PAYNE, who has been a very
prominent and respected citizen of
the town of Camden, in this county,
for a great many years, died in that
place on Sunday afternoon last, aged
about 60 years. He was the Demo-
cratic candidate for Representative in
this county, against MI. Hawley, in
1876, and was a man of very fair in
telligence and business capacity.
Woman is a mighty handy thing to
have about the house. She doesn't
cost any more to keep than you'll give
her and she'll take a great interest in
you. If you go out at night she'll be
awake when you get home aud then
she'll tell you all about yourself and
more too. OF course she will know
where you've been and what kept you
out so late, and will tell you. Right
after she gets through telling you
that she will ask you where you have
been and what kept you out so late.
And after you tell her and she won't
believe you, you mustn't mind that,
and if, after going to bed she says she
hasn't closed her eyes the whole night
and then keeps up the matinee two
hours longer and won't go to sleep
when she has a chance, you mustn't
mind that either-it's her nature.
A young mans interest and duty
both dictate that he should make him
self indispensable to his employers. He
should be so Industrious, prompt and
careful that the accident of his tempo
rary absence should be noticed by.his
being missed. A young man should
make his employer his friend, by doing
faithfully and minutely all that is en-
trusted to him. 1t is a great mistake to
be over-nice or ~fastidious about work.
Pitch in readily and your willingness
will be appreciated, while the ''high-
toned" young man who bubbles about
what it is and what it is not his place
to 90, will get the cold shoulder. There
is a story that George Washington once
helped roll a log that n ofhis cor
porals would not handle, and the Great
est Emperor of Russia worked as a
shipwright in England-To LEARN THE
BUSINESS. That's just what you want
to do. Be energetic, look and act with
alacrity, take an interest in your en-
ploycr's success, work as though the
business was your own and let your
employer know that he may place alb
solute reliance in your word and on
your act. Be mindful; have your mind
on Year business; because it is that
which is going to help you, not those
outside attractions which ONE Of the
''boys'' are thinking about. Take a
pleasure in work; do not 60 about it
in a l~istless, formal manner, but with
alacrity and eheerfulness, and remem-
Der that while working thus for 9TH
crs, you are laying the foundation of
your own success in life.
