a Good Joke.

\ parishioner stopping with his pastor
was mortified to see him visit closet az
ter each meal and quietly take drink
from n suspicious looking bottle. His
duty compelled him to demonstrate with
the good man on this deplorable practice,
but his modification was increased when
he was shown that il was a bottle OF DR..
s A. O. Simmons Liver Medicine that was
used, and he was assured that TO that ex-
cellent remedy the people were largely
indebted for sermons free from dyspeptis
symptoms with which they had been
afflicted until he was cured by this relia-
BILE remedy
This medicine is for sale by Buck \

THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

Business Transaotsd-Reardon Reads tn,
.Hs Riot Act. - ,,s.r..
The County Commissioners held reg
ular meeting this morning, all of the mem
bers beiHg IN attendance. h h Ni
Before proceeding ts business, Mr.. JOSEPH
NJ. Reardon got on his dignity on account
OF the Board of Controls action yesterday
inrefusing to confirm certain bills that hac
been referred to that Board for approval.
He was particularly bitter and out Oh
sorts because Mr. Charles @. Jenner, the
assistant of Clerk CsppelIer. had not sent
in to the Board Of Control for con
frmatiOn the names Of certain
Courthouse employees, who now are uni.
able to get their pay from The Treasurer,
the Auditor being unable to draw his war.
rant on the same on aeeouDt Of the non.
confirmation Of the appointments. ...
Mr.. Reardon asked Of Mr.. Jenner why he
had not sent in the names Of the Treasur-
ers and Sherifi's appointees. Mr.. Jenner
took 1t eoolly, and when Mr.. Reardon in
Sisted, after an ifppassionate speech
on an answer, Mr.. Jenner
h..SSndiv feinarked thai he had tone as bad
been done heretofore. He said il had
hitherto hardly been expected of the Board
of Control to receive the names of ap-
pointees but that the Board generally ac-
quiesced in the appointments and allowed
the Courthouse employees to draw their
salary without being confirmed by the
Board of Control.
At this point Mr.. Reardon's excited mind
took cooler course, and the matter was
dropped. As O little petty revenge, how
ever, he voted blank on motion to ap-
point Mr. Jenner as clerk of the Board in
the absence of County Auditor Cappeller.
A communication from Post e Co. as 10
furnishing the Courthouse with a cheaper
aud better quality of gas than furnished by
the Cincinnati Gas-works, was received and
filed.
An application from G. G. Smith to have
taxes refunded was rejected on advice of
County Solicitor Charles w. Baker.
The latter was also instructed to give q
complete and definite opinion as to the
right of allowing the refunders of taxes in
the cases of Jacob Pfau, +. C. Bradford, r.

Association, and Macneale & Urban.
