equally so, while great deal OF the So

is the product of the potato. Through
out Germany the same uses are COM

spirits from the potato is most extern

to many of her foreign possessions as
the produce of the grape, and is placed

A Down Town Merchant.

Having passed several s1eepless nights dis turbed by the agon1es and cries of a suffering child, and becoming convinced that Mrs. Wins lows Soothing Syrup was just the article needed. purchased supply for the child. On reaching home end having acquainted his wife with what he had done, she refused to have it administered to the child, ,as she WAS strongly in favor of Homeopathy. That night the child passed in suffering, and the parents without sleep. Returning home the day following. the father found the baby still worse; and while contemplating another sleepless night, the mother. stepped from the room to attend to some domestic duties, and left the father with the child. During her absence he admin istered portion of the Soothing Syrup to the baby, and said nothing. That night all hands slept we'll and the little fellow awoke in the morning bright and happy. The mother was delighted with the sudden and wonderful change, and although at first offended at the deception practiced upon her, has continued to use tho Syrup, and suffering crying babies and restless nights have disappeared. A single trial of the Syrup never yet failed to relieve the baby, and overcome the prejudiees of the mother. Sold by all Druggists. 25 cents 8 bottle. jan12 MWS1tw.

 Tomorrow evening one of the best enter tainments Of the season is to be given at Goes Opera House, when MT. George Edgar will appear in Shakcspeare's great tragedy of 'sOthelIo." He will be supported by Mir. Joseph WheeIock as 'Iago" and frst-class company throughout. The New York Even ing Post says of Mir. Edgar in Othello: ssHis curt, imperious, but not discourteous manner is good, and his quiet, d1gniied treatment of the scene with Brabantio was excellent. He at least saw clearly that OtheIlo was too dis tinguished soldier to pay much heed to the railing of an angry old man and too used to command, to fear that his orders will not be obeyed. The address to the Senate was very well delivered. not with any great display of Oriental grace or eiocutionary skill, but with certain awkward frsnkness which was very effective. The apparent effort of the speaker to think of what he had to say was novel and clever" &
