assembled, That there shall be appointed
by the President, by and with the ad-
vice and consent of the Senate, q COM

Williams Bros, history Of Lorain
county, with a few exceptions, gives
very general dissatisfaction in this local
ity.
The site for the water works has been
settled upon at last. They are to be
constructed upon the west side OF the
west branch of the river, and just south
of the Fair Grounds.
The gas works are nearly completed,
lamps all set, and in few days more
the town will be lighted with gas.
Mr.. E. E. Myers of Detroit, the archi-
tect whose pl,ns for the court house
were adopted, is now busily engaged in
preparing the plans and specifications
in detail. As soon rs he completes
them he will then draw the plans fer the
new NJ E. Church, which is to be built
here during the coming season. This
church will be q magnificent building,
surprising all the others in every re-
spect, and occupying one Of the finest
sites in town.
The extreme dry weather is eing seri-
ously felt in this locality, and If We are
not blessed with good rain very soon,
all crops and garden produce will receive
an irreparable injury.
Our new ban1 gave the first strawber-
ry festival of the season last night. 1t
was very largely attended.
The Anti-Hayes Republicans begin to
think that there is some backbone in
Rutherford after oil, and are little more
kindly disposed toward him.

THE BEAUTIFUL INDIAN MAIDENs.

The maidens of the famous Seneca tribe
of Indians who once roamed over the PIC
turesque and beautiful valleys and lofty
hills of the upper Allegheny river now the
famous oil regions of Pennsylvania, were
noted among all the neighboring tribes for
the wealth and beauty of their tresses,
which were of remarkable length and eN-
quisite fireness of texture, and in color SO
black, that the simile of the ravens wing
was hardly just comparison; an elegant
background that brought out the olive
brown complexion of the maidens, and
formed an exquisite and charming picture
of savage female loveliness delightful to be-
hold. Why their hair was of such rare
beauty and of such extreme length was
deep, puzzling mystery to the maidens of
all the neighboring tribes. and was source
of continual jcalousies on their part. 1t
has long remained mystery, and would
no doubt have died away altogether with
the rest of the Indian traditions had not
the discovery of petroleum oil furnished
the cue, and mankind now possesses the
great secret which had remained sealed
within the Third Sand rock of oblivion.
until released by the hand of scientific in
dustry, it gushes forth in treasures of petrol
cum to the world. But the knowledge was
practically useless to the prematurely bald
and gray as no onei in civilized society could
tolerate the use of refined petroleum as q
dressing for the hair. But the skill of one
of our chemists has overcome the difficulty,
and, by a process known only to himself,
he has, after very elaborate and costly ex-
periments, succeeded in deodorizing pc
troleum, which rend7-- it susceptible of
being handled as daintily as the famous
eau de cologne. The experiments with the
deodorized liouid on the human hair were

NUMBER OF WORDS IN USE.

The vocabulary of the ancient sages of
Egypt was about GS5 words. A well-edu-
Gated person seldom uses more than 5000
or a, 900 in actual conversation. Accurate
thinkers and close reasoners employ o
larger stock, and eloquent speakers may
rise to command of 10000. Shakespeare
produced all his plays with about Is, 900.
Millions works are built up with 5000, yet,
with all these, there is not enough to accur-
ately describe the superiority and general
excellence of the world-renowned Carbo-
line, which is an elegant dressing, removes
dandruff, cleans the scalp, prevents the
hair from falling out. restores the hair on
bald heads, restores it to its original color,
makes it grow rapidly, will not stain the
skin, contains not a particle of lead, silver,
sulphur, or other deleterious drugs. 1t is q
natural product of the earth, containing
the elements required by the hair to feed
upon. A few applications will show its
restorative qualities. Does not require
months of continued use before you can
perceive any result 1t is cooling, cleanly,
and too much praise cannot be bestowed
upon it. Sold by all dealers in drugs and
medicines. Price One Dollar bottle We
advise our readers to give it trial, feeling
satisfied that one application will convince
them Of its wonderful effects.

The Trespass Law.

Representative Estill, editor of the
Holmes County Farmer, says in his
paper
"As the sporting season is coming on,
it may be well enough to give the points
incorporated in the new trespass laws,

own farms. The law of 1877 requires
farmers to go to the trouble and expense

formity to the law. The lsw as amend
cd provides that whosoever shall trespass
on another's property, without having
received verbal or written permission
from the owner, his agent, or a person
in charge Of inclosed or improved lands,
shall be fined not more than twenty five
nor less than five dollars or imprisoned
not more than thirty nor less than five
days or both.

SULLIVAN.

May 10, 1879.
We are wishing. hoping, and begging
for rain.
A new buggy belonging to Mr..
Markle, in the western part Of Troy,
was stolen one night last week. As
soon as 1t was missed, Mr.. Markle, Jake
Frost and Laban Ford started in pursuit
and overlook the thieves just east Of
Homer. They had nice team, which
we afterwards learned was stolen at
Attics. The property was all recovered,
but the thieves escaped.
Read this all ye who do not believe in
house cleaning. A gentleman living in
Homer, hid away eighty dollars under
the carpet about Is years ago, and on
taking up the carpet this spring for the
first time since then, the treasure was
found. Moral: clean house every year,
then you will be sure to find all that
lays under the carpet.
