ORNAMENTAL PENMANSHlP. - We
were shown, last week, samples OF
ornamental penmanship executed by
pupils of Prof. s. p. Benjamin. The
wreath sud bird pieces executed by
the Misses Ackworth and Rubbins OF
Kent, were very fine. The pieces ex-
ecuted by Mrs. G. g. Hendryx are ele-
giant and show great proficiency in this
beautiful art. The rapid advancement
of all both in plain and ornamental
penmanship is simply wonderful.

A QUEER NOTION.

Many people think it is cheaper to
buy 25 cent sizes of a proprietary med
icine. But they make mistake. Fol-
instance. DIR. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry contains about eight times the
quantity of ordinary % cent cough
balsams. Besides it takes q less quan.
tity of Wistar's Balsam to cure q cold
A single dose is often sufficient. For
deep seated Colds and Consumption it
has proven itself to be the best and
quickest cure ever discovered.

The Value of Pure Wine in
Sickness.

Sickness.
The chief difficulty with reliable
wines has been their scarcity and ex-
orbitant price, but this has been re.
moved by the introduction of . pure
Native Wine, produced from the
Oporto grape by Mr.. Alfred Speer, Of
New Jersey. We understand that he
has submitted his wine TO the test OF
many of our celebrated ply sicians,
and all concur in it's purity, medicinal
properties, and superiority to the best
imported Port Wine. Most of them
prescribe it in cases of debility, affec.
tions of the kidneys, and chronic
complaints, requiring tonic, sudorifie
or diuretic treatment. - Examiner

DEMOCRATIC MEETING AND POLE



DEMOCRATIC MEETING AND Poll
| RAISING.
| The announcement that the Dem
ocracy of this place would raise 8
Hancock and English pole on last Sat.
urday afternoon, was the means OF
bringing a large crowd of people to
town-not only men, but a large mum.
Der of ladies. A fine shower at about
noon laid the dust and cooled the air
somewhat, making everything quite
accomplished under the direction of
the following officers:
President of the day--C. A. Myers.
Committee of Arrangements d.
Barclay, V. Clark, J. Fifer, John Bar
clay.
Pole-Hiram TuttIe, T. H. Clark, s.
Elliott, T.. Fish.
Flag-C. A. Myers, Frank Shultz.
At 3 o'clock everything was an
nounced ready and more than two
hundred persons gathered to lend a
helping hand. The command to raise
it being given, steadily but surely it
rose, till in half an hour, it was stand
ing erect, the grandest pole ever erected
in the county. At this moment the
Band added to the enth usiasm by
playing Hail Columbia" The pole
bears at a height of more than a hun
dred feet, a beautiful Hancock and
English streamer, made in the nation
al colors, red, white and blue. The
ropes were removed and our national
flag run up. The cannon now pealed
forth in tones of thunder to the sur
rounding country that the work was
accomplished.
1. T. Siddall, Esq, being introduced
made short but appropriate address.
The meeting adjourned with three
cheers for the grand success with
which we met in raising this hickory
pole-the emblem of the Democratic
party, and three rousing cheers for
Hancock and English, the next Pres.
ident and Vice President of the United
States.
The pole is. is.undoubtedly,t the finest in
the county, and will compare favora-
bly, with any in the State. 1t stands
ll6 #. above the ground, and is as
straight as an arrow. On the top were
left few branches, which were nicely
braided together.
THE EVENING MEETING.
was we'll attended. Our spacious Hall
with it's immense seating capacity, was
and many were unable to get
in. The meeting was addressed by ].
II. Nichols aud l. II. Siddall, Esqs., Of
Ravenna, who discussed the political
issues of the day in an able and i'm
partial manner. Music was furnished
by the Edinburgh Band aud the Han
cock Glee Club.
Take the meeting as a whole, it was |
the grandest ever held in this |
town. There was not a flaw in the !
whole days work, and everything |
passed off as smoothly as could be
wished. 1t shows, from the interest |
that the Democracy of
this place are awake to their duty, and |
1t the coming elections, I predict we
will make ehandsOmeDemocra gains. |
let us keep up the interest |
awakened, and victory will |
crown our efforts. We hope to have |
another meeting before the October |
