Piles! Pilesi PiIesi
I 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,30 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. M. 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 DIR. Williams Indian Oint
ment.

Contributions.

i always read with interest, contribu.
tions made to our County newspapers
and I cannot believe otherwise, than that
many of my friends derive pleasure from
a perusal of these same articles. 1t mat
ters little, in certain sense, whether the
articles be meritorious or not, so they are
written and published. Emanating as
] they do from those with whom we are
intimately acquainted and associated, we
are always curious to know what they
may have to say through the newspaper,
and, yes confess, hoao they aoiU sayit.
If the production be good one we are
willing to learn something from it, and
feel glad to meet our friend in this new
way. But if on the other hand, the effort
be rather an exposition of inability than
otherwise, while it may bore somewhat
the indulgent editor, yet the same end is
answered in the above case, and we derive
a certain human pleasure in noting the
mistakes of our fellow beings in their
new enterprise of writing for the press.
Of course the contributors mostly belong
to the class of profitable and exact wri-
tOIo, anu budU luOuSuO COIlSOloO HtS. l.
read with pleasure, in the last issue of
the STANDARD, an article from Judge.
LongbOn. Now, / meet the Judge fire.
quently, and talk with him, and yet 1 feel
glad and anxious to read his contribu-
tions to our county papers. On Wednes-
day of last week, in company with others,
listened to few remarks made by Mr..
Longbon at the Union Schools, on the oc-
casion of a Webster birthday celebration.
Among other things in connection with
the life of Mr.. Webster, the Judge in his
well known manner of delivery, took oc-
casion to relate few anecdotes of our il
lustrious ancestor, and "great expounder
of the Constitution" To illustrate his
ability at repartee, he related the follow
ing and presume somewhat well known
anecdote.
Mr.. Webster and MI. Calhoun were
both Senators in Congress, one from
Massachusetts,, the other from South Car
olina. On certain occasion when the
two Senators were out walking, drove
of mules passed along and Mr.. Calhoun,
thinking it good opportunity to joke his
friend called out.
"Mr. Webster, there goes body of your
constituents"
Yes rejoined the great orator, "they
are going down to South Carolina to teach
school,"
In the same issue of the STANDARD, 1
read articles over the signatures of Tom
Morgan and Jim McClung. These two
gentlemen I especially remember as for
midable opponents in country debates.
Both formerly trained the tender twig,
but Excelsior" has been the motto, and
now Jim is prepared to interpret United
States law to the satisfaction of cause
and client and moreover is chief Exexu-
tive of one of our American Courts of
Justice. 1t is not known at present what
business Tom is engaged in, but it is gen.
orally supposed that he is testing the
charity of Minnesota feminalty. Ohio
girls may become justly indignant if
through the weakness Of some "Star of
the North" Tom is induced to change his
savage manner of living.

Webster Centennial.

As promised, we went to the School
House on Wednesday, before three
O'Clock. We went directly to Miss Vesta
Gray's room, second door on the left,
from the front door. We found some SO
children, from the ages of to 10, per-
haps. They were subject to the best of
drill, and in few minutes, when the
bell rang for recess, and tapping was
kept up upon drum, these children
marched out with the regular tramp of
veteran soldiers.
After recess Miss Gray asked the chill
dren several questions about the history
Of Daniel Webster, when we were re-
quested to talk to the children. They ex-
hibited good manners, and paid strict
attention.
Mr.. Allison, superintendent, having
come in, invited us to visit other rooms
We went up stairs, and went into room
on the left, where we found Mrs. Allison
in charge of a school of children aged
perhaps from 10 up to Il years. They
had just got through their exercises, and
we were pressed to talk for time
which we did, and soon after we had con
cluded Rev. w. D. Cherington, the regu
lar speaker came in, and addressed tht
school.
We had no time to visit other rooms
but we observed all the pupils, as they
filed out Of the building, and the same
thorough drill was observed by all.
Our Public Schools are most ably man
aged, and do much credit to Superintend
ent, teachers, School Board, and the chill
dren and citizens of our town.

Do NOT for moment think, because
we have not this year spoken of the great
marble shop of Adam w. Long, that he
has quit, or in any degree abated his eff
forts to get out the finest work in marble,
of any shop in the State. OF course, in
the winter, when the roads are so bad, he
cannot put up heavy jobs; but his work
in the shop is pushed with much energy,
and it is good time to order your work,
and then it will be ready to put up in the
spring.
Call at Longs shop, on Church street,
Jackson, and see specimens of the kind
of work done there.

TIMES were never more prosperous
in Jackson county than they are at
the present time. Any man who is
able to work can get constant employ
ment, and good wages. The coal and
iron industries are bringing large sums
of solid cash into the county, and the
people who had so severe lesson during
the panic, from 1878 to 1879, are careful
to place their money where it will do the
most good, and consequently they buy
their goods of o. S. Miller, of Jackson.
He keeps a full stock, and sells at lowest
rates.

ON THE DEATH OF MRS. SARAH PLUM
MER.
Sarah, when last looked on thee,
little thought so soon,
That friends amid a weeping train,
Should follow to thy tomb.
Dear Sarah come back to the room,
And drive from its corners the shadows of gloom;
Oh! it's so stIll so dreary and cold,
Since you have left the home of the old.
Since you have left the shadows for light,
Since you have gone with the angels so bright,
oh, I'm so lonely since Sarah has died,
Would were resting there by her side.
Sarah, dear Sarah, I've buried you low,
Oh, why should call you-forever know,
That while your dear body is resting below,
Your spirit has gone on the wings of Gods love,
And there, dear Sarah. I'll meet you abov5.
But ere she passed from earth,
She raised her eyes to heaven,
And saw with faiths bright eye,
That rest for her given.
Her face shone with beauteous smile,
As she viewed that vision bright
And then she passed away,
In the realms of eternal light.
