range to burn kiln of brick in this imme-
date vicinity early next season. AT pres
ent we have none at all in stock. the new

New UNIroRMs.-The Graccham Cor
net hand has treated its members 10 new
uniform. We have not seen it but from
the description we have had Of it, they
make a fine appearance. We are unable
to give other than the color of the goods
which Is gray, but we will rest in the hope
that they will shortly pay our town visit,
discourse some Of their best airs and treat
us nil to sight Of them in their new
clothes.
BECOMING SERIoUs-The failure Of
wells in our town las finally become a Sc
rious matter. Within the past ten days Il
large number have failed and with the ex-
TIA draught upon those which have held
out thus lar, we may expect them to hold
out but little longer. There is no ice in
town and with warm weather and creek
water, our people 50 accustomed to the
best of water will suffer greatly. Our
mountain stream is pure and the water
drnkable when cool and without rain
shortly, this must be our sole supply.

They cured me of ague, bliousness and
kidney complaint, as recommended. had
a half bottle left which used for my two
little girls, who the doctors and ueighbors
said could not be cured. l would have
lost both of them one night If had not
given them Hop Bitters. They did them
so much good continued their use until
they.were cured That is why say you
do not know ha.f tho value Of Hop Bitters
and do not recommend them high enough,
