Next week is the time set for the first
o. N. G. to come to Eaton to spend a
week in camp at the st. Clair Springs
The men composing this Regiment are
all business men and mechanics, and
come here because they need a short re-
spite from their duties and cares and la
bors Of their business. The coming of
these patriots, who in the days when the
Republic needed the strongest hearts and
hands to save it from destruction came
nobly to the front and furnished that pre-
cious material, will give US such IN ad.
vertisement as could in no other way be
obtained, provided we do the clean thing
with them. Let Eaton, therefore, rise
to welcome them with an open hand, a
happy greeting and a hearty hospitality,
and 80 shall we do ourselves proud, and
reap a rich harvest which will be enjoy
ed not only by ourselves but by them,
and which will rebound to our credit and
make US stronger in our homes. These
are solid business points to be consider
ed by all who feel an interest in the rep
utation, welfare and prosperity of our
city.

We understand that the Mayor has or
dered that all groceries and other houses
of business be closed on the Sunday the
soldiers are in Eaton. OF course if the
Mayor has done SO he has made a Ounce
of himself. If the weather is favorable,
there will be in Eaton on that day at the
lowest estimate 5000 people. How are
they to be fed? Only by every grocery
and saloon in the city setting out lunch
and other provisions, just as was done
in the good, quiet Quaker city of Rich
mond n year ago, on a similar occa-
sion. The Mayor and the Council should
not attempt to act the fool about the bu-
siness, but appoint a good strong police
for the day, allow all places that can ac-
commodate strangers to be open, and ar
rest every disorderly or intoxicated per-
son found on the public highway. If
this plan is adopted there will be no
trouble. The crowd that will probably
be in Eaton, must be properly taken care
of, and not to do SO to the extent of our
ability will be criminal and a stigma on
the place and our citizens.

The unpleasant odor produced by per-
SEPARATION is frequently the source of vex-
alton to persons who are subject to it.
Nothing is simpler than to remove this
oder much more effectually than by the
application of such Ingredients and per-
fumes as are in use. 1t is only necessa-
ry to procure some of the compound
spirits of ammonia and place two table
%spoonsful in a basin of water. Washing
the face, hands and arms with this leaves
the skin as clean and fresh as one could
wish. The wash is perfectly harmless
and very cheap. 1t is recommended on
the authority of an experienced physi-
clan.
The contract for the building of our
new School House was awarded to Mr..
William McCabe, of Eaton, for the sum
Of $4,000. 1t is gratifying to all that an
Eaton mechanic received the job, and
one that is competent in every respect
to do it in first class style. Marks Ma
ton will furnish the brick-the Trunk
boys and Simeon Bartch the stone work.
The building is to be under roof by the
first of December and entirely completed
by the first of September, 1854. The
tearing away of the old building was
commenced the same day the new one
was let to contract. Every good citizen
should encourage the enterprise. 1t will
be a credit to our city and in ten years
hence there will be none to lament its
| structure.

CAMPBELL PROCESS.
FANNY FERN.

In speaking of matters at Idaho Springs, Colorado, the Denver Fri
 bune says: The new building now in course of erection for the Campbell process of treating ores Is advancing rapidly to completion under the su
 peryision of Mir. George V. Northey, who is the general manager for the company owning this process. It is located on the site of the old Star mill, where several processes have been tried, and, phoenix-like, others have sprung from their ashes. A number of months ago Col. F F Osbiston shipped several car loads of Freeland ore to the Pacific slope, and had 1t treated by the process in question, under conditions that left no doubt of its successful applica- ton to the ores of this region. Act ing upon this experiment, Col. Osbis- ton has interested himself in the en- terprise under consideration, and his long experience m mining and milling are sufficient guarantee to the public of the feasibility and sue

Says a writer in the Boston Post . T recollect an occasion when young stock actor did Tsomething of more than average merit, but had no ex, p1ctation of summons before the curtain, and the minute the curtain fell, rushed to his dressing-room to make a quick change of costume. The call becoming imperative, the stage-manager hastened to summon him, and found him with his trousers of. In frantic haste his clothes were hurried upon him, and, half bewil- dered, he was ushered before the cur tain. Following the hearty applause he received, came a burst of daughter. He retired and found that ln the con- fusion his trousers had been put on so that when he faced the audience they'didn't."

I ana garden work, find time for men i tai culture; whose little book-shelves hold well-read copies of our best authors. Women-sound physically, mentally, morally; women, whom the Man of the Period, who most surely exists, has never found. Now and then, some man, fit to be her mate, in his rambles in the sweet summer time, is struck as I am by these gems hidden amid the green hills, and ap propriates them for his own. But for the most part, the more sensible a man i5, thi bigger the fool he mar ries. This is especially true of biogra phers! What wrong then, to the great army of sensible, earnest wom- en m either country to pick out a butterfly as the national type. Be cause a few men in New York and London and Paris wear corsets, and dye their whiskers and hair, and pad out their hollow cheeks and shrunk- en calves, it does not follow that Victor Hugo, and John Bright, and the great army of brave men who won our late victory, are all popin- jays. For every female fool I will find you male mate. So when the inventory of the former is taken, the roll-call of the latter might as well be voiced. Are women so "fond of gossip?" Pray, what is the staple of after dinner conversation when the wine comes on and the women go off? Do women "lavish money on personal adornment?" How many men are there who would be willing to tell on what, and on whom their money was worse than lav- ished? Do women leave their nur- sery altogether to hirelings? how many corresponding men are there, whose own children under their own roofs, are almost entire strangers to their club frequenting fathers? And yet what good, noble men are to be seen foH the looking? Faithful to their trusts. faithful to themselves, unmoved by the waves of folly and sin that dash around them, as is the rock of G1bralter.
 I claim that justice be done by these writers on both sides of the water, to both sexes. Fools, like the poor. we shall have always with us; but, thank God the "just" man and the "just" woman ''still live" to re- deem the race; men worthy to be ia thers; and large brained women, who do not even in this degenerate day, disdain to look we'll after their own household.

cess of the undertaking. The ob-
 jects that first strike one as being novel in this section are two cylin- ders of sheet iron lined with brick and reaching from the basement to the top of the building, night of about forty feet. One of these is three feet, and the other four and a half feet in diameter. The largest one of these is the desulphurizing furnace, while the smaller one carries off the waste products of combustion. The wasting is accomplished by ig- nited jets of crude petroleum intro duced by Parson & Northey's hydro. carbon injector. The capacity of the works will be about forty tons per day, and it is claimed that the most refractory ores can be successfully treated; indeed, the process seems to be specially adapted for ores of this class. Ninety-fve per cent of the assay value of the mineral can be extracted. The object is to take the low grade ores of the district and convert them into smelting ores. A boiler of fifty and an engine of thirty horse power will run the crushing machine.

Othsr "GirIs of the Period. ,

am inclined to believe that there are a great many kinds of women, both in England and America. This idea seems to be lost sight of, by the writers of both nations, who have lately undertaken to describe the feminine element, under such titles as ''The Girl of the Periodn or "The Woman of the Time;" presenting to our view monstrosities, which no doubt exist, but which are no more to be taken as specimens of the whole, than IS the Bearded Woman, or the Mammoth Fat Girl.
 New York, for instance,is not wholly given over to the feminine devil Angels walk our streets, discernible to eyes that wish to see. Noble, thoughtful, earnest women; sick of shams and pretence; striving each, so far as in her lies, to abate both, and to diminish the amount of physi- cal and moral suffering. .Then,I never go into the country for a few weeks summer holiday, that I do not find large hearted, large-brained women, slowed away among the green hills, in little cottages, which are glorifed inside and out by their presence; women who arnfa tl-o ll,c-- -f l.,.---

point of rumors and news, yet the mere
absence of anything startling, good OF
bad, was accepted as good omen. Had
it not been for the marked firmness in the
Vanderbilt shares the market would have
possessed no attraction. Up to II 80 O'Clock
mean quotations did not average quarter
OF per cent. Sales were small, and the
phrase nothing new" was heard on all
sides. There has been considerable buy
ing for Investment. A prominent Wall
street house bought to take out of the
street 100000 worth Of stocks this morn
ing, including Rock Island, Illinois Cen
trala nd Missouri Pacific. Inquiry among
other commission houses shows growing
demand for good class o. stocks. The
impression seems to be that stocks are a
little better buy than bonds at the moment
Points were given to buy Lake Shore for
turn. They came from sources usually
good, and it was evident before noon there
was disposition to give the stocks higher
quotations. All the Vanderbilt stocks
were closely watched, and were bought by
supposed Morgan brokers at intervals.
There has been SOME buying again to-day
on rumors current for several days of an
impending rise on the Gould stocks. 1t
is safe to say that. these stocks are very
closely watched as Mr.. Gould's
part of the alleged programme is to ad-
vance his specialties. Points were given

the pool, and its secure aIia4ce with
the Vanderbilt system would be a
bull point for the market. A
prominent broker said II think
it will be waiting market until
well into July. The season is later
than it was last year, and there is more
uncertainty in regard to crops. 1t is not
safe this year to discount the wheat crop
We want to see just how it is gong to turn
out before going into July deal, A little
improvement in the commercial situation
would be a great help. If it comes that
would probably turn the scale in favor of
agood advance. Agreat deal depends on
Mr.. Gould. There is good bull clique
on the street. 1t has captured some of
the former bears, and has fastened them
so that they are likely to stay. Mr.. Gould
has been asked to help. If he comes in
and stays the combinsti on will be the
strongest that has been in the street for a
long time. 1t is best, however, to go slow
for few weeks yet"
