Birthday Surprise.

The friends of Mrs. J. C. Willis, of Ea-
ton, amounting to threescore or more,
concluded to give her a surprise on last
Friday evening, I'd inst, it being her fif-
tieth birthday. She being persuaded to
call on a neighbor to spend a portion of
the evening, her friends proceeded in her
absence to take possession of her house,
and with well-illed baskets of the sub
stantials and luxuries of life, proceeded
to fill the long tables until they almost
groaned beneath their load. Finding on
her return many of her kindred and 9th
er friends, from both town and country,
and the tables so bountifully supplied,
she had not language to express her feel
ings. After being presented with many
valuable and useful presents in a neat
little speech by DR.. w. P. Webb, the
guests partook of the bountiful repast,
after which the time was occupied in so
cial converse, music, &C., until a late
hour when all returned to their homes
well pleased and no doubt wishing Mrs.
Willis many more such agreeable SUI
prises, and that they all might be there.

Below will be found the circular sent

Below will be found the circular sent
out by the Executive Committee ALI
ance Movement" in Preble county, to
each candidate on the Republican and
Democratic tickets nominated in the
county. OF the sixteen candidates out
for official positions, but ONE had the
courage to reply to the circular, and that
one the "Stalwart" Independent Repub-
lican candidate for Probate Judge, B. F.
Morgan, who, after accepting the terms
OF the circular, was unceremoniously
Sighted by the alliance Convention !''
Where was Mr. Sheppard that he refused
to endorse or reject the sentiments of the
circular? Are they not the same he has
been promulgating all over the county
for several years? And Mr.. Lake, Cook,
Crisler and Quinn? Have you gentle
men all gone back on your Murphy re-
cords? Here is something for the con-
sideration OF the good temperance peo-
pie of Eaton and surrounding country to
moralize over a little:
To THE CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE II PRE-
BILE Co.:
Believing the liquor traffic to be the
crying evil of the day, and believing the
only efficient method of dealing with it
is by constitutional prohibition supple
mented by legislative enactments, and
since there is no question before the peo-
pie to compare with it in Importance,
we ask that all candidates asking the
suffrage of the people answer without
equivocation the following questions =
Are you in favor of submitting to a vote
of the people al amendment to the con-
stitution of the State prohibiting the man
ufacture, sale and importation of alcohol
ic beverages, and will you, if elected to
Office, use your influence and position to
secure the same? An early answer is
requested, that they may be duly con-
sidered before the time of holding the
Temperance Convention, as the Alliance
Movement will not oppose the election
of those who plant themselves squarely
on the affirmative side of the question
but will nominate in opposition to those
who e~quivocate or remain silent. Direct
all communications to Jacob Chambers,
Eaton, o., before the 3rd day of Sept,
the time of holding Convention.

The recent annual Normal was very
successful. Many of the teachers ex-

merits of these Normal sessions to the
notice OF other teachers. The instruc-

sessions. Those desiring to attend a su-
perior school at a reasonable expense,

Ancient Perfumery.

Jules Simon traces back the origin OF
perfumes to the early times Of the Chi
nese Empire and mentions a curious
fact which prevailed among the fine
ladies of the Celestial Empire of rub
bing in their hands round ball made
of amixture Of amber, musk and sweet
scented flowers. The Jews, who were
also devoted TO sweet scents, used them
in their sacrifices, and also to annoint
themselves before their repasts. The
Scythian women went step farther,
and, after pounding on a stone. cedar,
cypress and incense, made up the in.
gradients thus obtained into a thick
paste, with which they smcared their
faces and their limbs. The composition
emitted for a time pleasant odor, and
on the following day gave to the skin a
soft and shining appearance. The
Greeks carried sachets of scent in their
dresses, and filled their dinng-rooms
with fumes Of Incense. Even their
wines were often impregnated with de-
coctions of flowers. or with sweet-scent
ed flowers themselves, such as roses
and violets. There We're also appro-
pirate scents for each limb and each
feature, and the elegsnts of Athens re-
sorted to, such ellcminate refncmenss

liquid perfume, and causing them to fly

from their feathers over the heads and
