an earlier age. The number of fat hogs
marked in 1881 is 6o3, ,457 head less than
during the previous year The average

Don't Sign PaperS.

People who thoughtlessly sign docu.
ments often put their property in peril,
and many men have been ruined by in.
dorsing for friend. How often have
good-natured mems fortunes been di-
minished by obligations incurred care
tessly or without thought of conse-
Quences. During the war the teamer
Jessie was seizod because it was sup
posed she was blockade runner. The
case was delayed in the courts for eigh-
teen years, fact which is very dis
creditable to our lawyer rules. In the
meantime all the parties defending the
ownership of the vessel ha disappeared.
The only responsible person that could
be found was young girl of seventeen,
whose father was on ons of the bonds.
An obligation of the seventy Thousand
dollars has been rolled up, which this
young woman will be forced to ray un-
less the law somehow interposes to fave
her. She will be ruined financially, as
hat sum is greater than her nheritance.
Here is case in which a person.is pun
ished who is entirely innocent of any
offence. But the moral of this instance
is: Don't put your name on bonds or
notes, for it may injure not only your
self, bat your innocent children.

No disease which does not confne a man to
his bed so completely units him for business
as dyspepsia. When the stomach is foul, the
brain is always muddy and confused, and as
the cares and anxieties of life are sufficient
burden for the organ of thought to bear, with
out being tormented by the miseries born of
indigestion. it is highly desirable for the
brains sake, as well as for the sake Of every
other portion of the system, that the disordered
stomach sh uld be restored with the utmost
dispatch to healthy, vigorous condition. This
object can always be accomplished By course
Of Hostetter's Stomach bittets, the purest and
best OF vegetable specifics, which evacuate,
the morbid humors throueh the bowels
rouse and tones the torpid stomach aud reg
ulates the liver, imparts frmness to the
nerves and clears the sensorum Of its mental
cobwebs: Persons subject 10 attacks of indi-
gestion, bilious headache, irregularity of the
bowels sickness of the stomach or ''the blues, .
should take the Bitters cnce or twice day
throughout the present season.

Frankly Acknowledged.

At recent trial in the Lenawee
county courtroom, a young Adrian
lawyer was defending client charged
with larceny. A female relative was on
the stand, and, on direct examination,
had sworn to statement directly oppo-
site to one she had made to the young
lawyer in his office. The youth started
in on the cross-examination with great
vigor and an extended fore finger. The
following was about the way the matter
eventuated
Lawyer understood you to swear
so 'and-so on your direct examination
Witness" Yes, sir"
Ibid You not say to me SC. and so
in my Office ?"
w." Yes, SIR"
L.-"Well, and now You come upon
the stand and swear directly the oppo-
site?"
w." Yes, SIR"
L.-"Then you must lie in one or the
other statements ?"
w." Yes, SIR"
L." And which is the truth?"
w." Which I have just sworn to-"
Let is, eh? Now, will you tell
ME why you lied to mea"
W.-Oh. you looked like fellow
could "stuff."
We leave it to some of the writer's of
narrowing fiction to describ. the feel
lngs OF the young limb of the law. We
are not equal to that sort of thing.

Value Of Jersey Cattle,

The question is asked, why do Jersey
and Alderney cattle bring such prices
as they are selling forp The stockmen
OF the country. and all of that class Of
farmers who use brains in the manage
ment of their farms, are inquiring for
the best methods and best material to
accomplish this. There are large class
OF farmers who, from their location and
previous education and practice, prefer
to use their farm for butter dairy, and
on inquiry they find that a Jersey
COW will make butter cheaper at less
cost than others; that the same amount
Of feed fed to Jersey COW will produce
more; hence there is demand for them,
and the demand makes the value.
Farmers are beginning to understand
the value of machine suited to the
wants of their business Breeders
