A Crisis.

Suppose that upon the announcement Of
each new invention, all using similar inven-
tons should order at once, who can fancy the
bedlam that would ensue How novel to use
a new patent charm daily and wash three or
four times a week in order to keep pace with
the new washing and wringing machines that
would pour in from every quar,er Think of
the farm covered with patent plows, rakes,
mowers. etc etc. Think too. of the poor in
valid who would only have time to draw the
cork and take one dose of the latest medicine
when the druggist would rush in with a still
later. much better, more certain and more
wonderful catholicon. Fortunately the PEG
pie are conservative and reluctantly discard
the trusted, tried and true for the glamour OF
the new. Nowhere is this principle be,.~.
demonstrated than in the steady increasing
sale of Or. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, which for
over quarter Of century has held the field
against all others and has from one genera.
ton to another given entire satisfaction. Its
cures are numbered by thousands.

Bloomington Notes.

-Woodhouse and Morse have a large stock
of new stoves at marvelously low prices.
Edward Connel has been very i'll with
bilious typhoid fever, but is recovering slowly.
Our trout pond is building quite rapidly.
1t has splendid location and is fed by one OF
the best springs in the county
Albert Cilley since the first of January
has borne untold suffering from fever-sore.
He has gone to Chicago under DR.. GAYS
guardianship to have his leg operated upon.
The necessity of amputation is feared.
-Hurrah for temperance Bloomington
has for a number Of years almost daily pre-.
sented disgusting scenes of drunkenness. Sa.
loon brols have been frequent and Saturday
evenings especially one could not traverse the
streets without being saluted with chorus OF
course and obscene language from drunken
men and boys. License or no license was
voted at the polls, with grand majority for
the latter. Saloon men are considerably
wrathy over the result, but why they should
be we are at loss to comprehend, since as
they argue more liquor is always sold in towns
having no license than those having If the
laws are properly executed we shall have az
quiet and orderly a town as need be-
The death of Deacon Kilbourn cast deem
gloom over the community, especially the
Congregational church of which he was an in
fuential member. His Illness was of short
duration attended with much suffering, which
he bore with heroic fortitude. For MANY
years he has lived here loved beyond expres.
sion by his family, and respected very hi ghly
by all who knew him. In his removal his fam.
lily, friends and society NEE, with loss greater
than words can express. Many friends SYM
pathize most heartily with his bereaved ones.
Mr.. O. w. Graves, an old resident of
Blakes Prairie, has sold his farm and viii,
soon move away. He is a mode farmer, a
steadfast friend, an obliging neighbor and
man noted for straight up and down honesty.
He and his family have large circle of friends
who deeply regret their removal. The COM
munity in which he locates will gain our loss
OF which it may be justly proud He has
been Superintendent of the Blake's Prairie
Sunday School for several years in sue,
cession and labored hard and successfully to
promote its welfare. Many friends wish him
success in whatever business he may engage.
If Lille doesn't keep Pat straight IL will
not be for lack of brooms, rolling pins and

made long ago handsomely The Odd Fellows
are standing on the street corners waiting
patiently waiting for BARLEY to come home.
