Berlin is yet almost the same as when the first
inhabitant trod its soil, j. e., not many houses
and plenty of mud. 1t is. however, only as yet
embryotic, as there are improvements making

In some respects this quaint old town is up
even with struggling time, and in others it is
away back on the dangerous and dark frontier;
for it has nice new two-story school building,

pay their preacher. 1t has two blacksmith
shops-a colored and white; has three stores,

effect that the employees went to dinner leaving 80

PiIes2 Piles! Piles!
A Sure Cure Found at Last!
No One Need Suffer!

A sure Cure for Blind, Bleeding, Itch
ing and liberated Piles has been discov-
cred by DR.. William, (anIndian remedy,)
called DR.. Williams Indian Ointment. A
single box has cured the worst chronic ca
ses of 25 or 80 years standing. No one
need suffer five minutes after applying
this wonderful soothing medicine. Lo-
tions instruments and electuaries do more
harm than good. Williams Ointment alb
serbs the tumors, allays the intense itch
ing, particularly at night after getting
warm in bed,) acts as poultice, gives in
slant and painless relief, and is prepared
only for Piles, itching of the private parts,
and for nothing else.
Read what the Hon. j. NJ. Coffinbury of
Cleveland says about DR.. Williams Indi-
an Pile Ointment: | have used scores of
Pile Cures, and it affords me pleasure to
say that / have never found anything
which gave such immediate and perma-
nent relief as DR.. Williams Indian Oint-
ment.

Ninety Years Old.
DAY of Samuel Baker.
Mr.. Baker has been permitted to live unusually
long time. He has lived under the administration
every President of the United States, having been
born while George Washington was serving his first
term as President. 1t long way to look back
over, and our old friend certainly cannot complain
that the Lord has not been good to him. He has been
intimately acquainted with this Nation from its BIRTH
He has heard the crack of the save-drivers whip
has witnessed the birth of the Republican party-of
which he has long been jealous member-and has
watched its course through the heated agitation, the
bitter oraorical contests the clash of arms and the
final death-grapple, when it destroyed forever the
Demon of Slavery he has this great party deve
op into the grandest and most progressive political
party on earth. Speaking from political stand
point Mr.. Baker say in the language ofthe hymn
Mine eyes have the glory of the coming of the
Lord.'
MIR. Bakers children gathered about him to cele-
brate his Goth birthday. All his children pres
ent except Mrs. Williams of Norwalk, Ohio. OF the
members of his family present there Fanny and
her husband, James Martin; William s. Baker, James
Baker, and Jennie, now Mrs. Jack Gilliand.
1t was a pleasant party, and we wish, ere laying
down our pencil, to express the fervent hope tina
Uncle Sammy may live to celebrate his Tooth birthday
and still live on.

WE call your attention to the adver-
tisement of Simmons Liver Regulator,
which appears in the paper Of to-day.
This standard remedy, the only genuine
of which is manufactured by j. II. Zeilin
& Co., and of which they are the sole pro-
prietors, does not deserve to be classed
with the many 'patent" nostrums so lib
orally advertised throughout the country.
1t is one of the very best preparations in
use, and is recommended by the regular
practitioners of medicine. 1t has large
sale in this city, and can be found in all
our drug stores. A bottle or package
should be found in every family, as it's
judicious use is almost sure to prevent a
bilious attack if taken when the symp-
toms first show themselves.

A Link Of Sausage Z

John Dicus owns dog-a spotted pointer, with
long tail. John loves his dog, and the dog loves
John. 1t seems that Dave Warren loves the same
dog-but whether the dog reciprocates Dawes affic-
tion, have not learned. On last Sunday John
caught Dave in possession of the dog. John did not
wish hurt Dave, he caught hold of the dog and
attempted to pull him away. But Dave held on. Now
the tug Of rather the tug of dog. After
pulling poor dog nearly in two-fguratively speak
ing-the Mayor succeeded in getting the dog away
from them, when he appointed George Blagg receiver
of the dog until the dispute could be settled But
believe the dispute is stir unsettled-for the dog
capped from the receiver. Perhaps the only way for
the boys settle this quarrel will be to sell the dog
the butcher for sausage meat and divide the pro-
ceeds. At all events, there should be street
brawls. 1t makes the pointer ashamed!

The Disadvantage of Being Ugly

One evening last week. an irrepressible female from
the North end of town undertook to storm the South
end-and marshaled her full force horseback
While parade, however, Officer Jared Martin
appeared upon the scene and Immediately proceeded
to unhorse the fiery Amazon-but not lightly and low
ingly did the fiery Hattie spring to the ground, not
much. She just wrapped herself around the horn OF
the saddle and held for dear life But Jared yank-
ed her hence, and politely taking her arm offered her
his company the way up to headquarters. But
Hattie Indignantly gave him the mitten, right ther
and there. She taunted him with not being hand
some. She gave him to understand that if some hand
some officer, like Owens would escort her. she woult
go-but not with Jared, no, never.
All this had more effect upon Jared than the gen
tie murmuring of the summer breezes. He haan'
time to send for any bette looking officer, he
tremendously boosted her right along to the Gala

Unless the food is properly prepared in

Dyspepsia and its accompaniments are

Sufferers with dyspepsia experience a
