NOTICE,

In June, 1879, moved my photo
graph gallery from Jefferson street to
my present location in the new Union
Block, on Main street, where [ have
one of the finest lights and best ar
ranged galleries in the western part of
the State. Nothing but first class pic
lures are made by me, and all are fine
ly re-touched and .artistically finished
at less prices than the photographers
of the city, from where l have quite a
number of patrons in charge, and my
work is better than that of most of the
city photographers. warn my pat
rons that the rooms on Jefferson street,
formerly occupied by me are now oc-
cupied by another man, with whom l
have no business connections, and that
any representations of his to the con-
trary are false. JOHN. p. ORR.

From the Stureis. Mich. Weeklu

Mr. John Brast, living in Sherman Township,
informed us few days ago that his feet had
been so terribly frost-bitten that he could hard
ly stand the pains caused thereby. He hap
pened to think of ST. JACOBS OIL-which he
always keeps hahdy-rubbed his feet twice
with the remedy, and the pain disappeared en-
tirely He not only values ST. JACOBS Oil as
an unexcelled remedy for great many other
painful diseases, to which mankind is subject,
but he also asserts that it is real invaluable for
the many diseases horses and stock are subject
to, and which so often play havoc with the
prospects of the farmer and stock-raiser.

HARDENING SMALL TooLs.-It is
said that the engravers and watch
makers of Germany harden their tools
in sealing wax. The tool is heated
to whiteness, and plunged into the
wax, withdrawn after an instant and
plunged in again, the process being re-
peated until the steel is too cold to en-
ter the wax. The steel is said to be-
come, after this process, almost as hard
as the diamond, and when touched
with little oil or turpentine the tools
are excellent for engraving, and also
for piercing the hardest metals.
