If people troubled with colds, would
take Ayers Cherry Pectoral before go
ing to church or places of entertainment
they would avoid coughing, greatly II
the comfort of both speakers and hear
ers. Public speakers and singers fine
that the Pectoral wonderfully increases
the power and ~lexibility of the voice.
We invite the patrons of the DEMocRA,
to the very kind proposition in anothe
column, made by our old friend Ton
Brennan, of Sweetwater, Tenn, AMI
hope to hear a good report in the contest
for the 'peck of wheat" The sample
sent US by Mr.. Brennan can be seen a
the office. Go in Boys, and see who viii
get the prize!

We are not now surprised at William
| Mikesell being beaten for his second
term for Auditor, and only wonder why
the majority against him was not twice
as large! An official who would treat
his successor to the position as shabbily
as Mikesell has treated Hi Robbins, de-
serves nothing else than defeat. Billy,
if you are not ashamed of yourself, yor
ought to be. Many of your friends feel
that way.
An exchange says: ga New York man
has invented a burglar alarm that rings
a bell and lights the gas as soon as the
burglar sets foot on the continuance,
which he cannot very well help if he en-
tiers a house where it is in use. The in
ventor proposes to rent them for five
cents a day. This includes the keeping
of them in order" Bring them right
on. We want a ton of them scattered
about town Immediately.
How frequently is the honesty and in
tegrity of many persons disposed OF by a
smile or shrug? How many good and
generous actions have been sunk into OBJ
livion by a d~istrustful look, or stamped
with the imputation of proceeding from
bad motives by q mysterious or question
able whisper? How often does the re-
putation of a helpless, innocent creature
bleed by report?
For RENT-A house with four rooms,
a good lot and other conveniences. Lo-
cation south of Cooks grain house. APP
ply to c.. F. Brooke, First National
Bank.
The barn on the widow Lesh farm, a.
bout three miles east of Eaton, was de-
stroyed by fire on Saturday morning last,
the blaze occurring at about l o'clock
David Allbaugh lives on the farm. A
bout 400 bushels of wheat and some farm
implements were burned. Probably an
incendiary. Loss estimated at $500, and
fully covered by insurance in the Ohio
Farmers. There is about one fire per
month occurring in this county among
the farming community, and whether
from the result of devilishness or care
lessness, is a question to be solved.
No use of being robbed now! Read
in another column the certificates on the
Electrical Burglar Alarm, and go and
purchase one Immediately. Henry NJ.
Young is the agent for Preble county.
This Burglar Alarm is certainly the most
important invention of the age, and will
n a measure put a stop to house-break-
ing, horse stealing, and other crime 80
prevalent at present all over the coun-
try. The certificates of the gentlemen
who have tested their workings, are SUI
ficient guarantee that there is no hum
bug abou. the instrument.
The question is frequently asked
"What are the wedding anniversaries? ?"
and IL is not always ready with the in
formation. The following is the official
table: First is the paper; second, straw !;
third, candy; fourth, leather; fifth,
wood; tenth, tin; twelfth, linen; fif-
teenth, crystal; twentieth, floral TWEEN
ty-ifth, silver; thirtieth, pearl; thirty
fifth, china; fortieth, coral fftieth, gold,
and seventy-ffth, diamond. The ami
versaries generally celebrated are the
wood, tin, silver and gold. The others
though none are obligatory-being
matters of personal inclination.
There are few of us who do not at
times feel ruffled and frightened and de-
pressed at the criticism or ridicule or SUI
pericial judgments which may be pass
ed upon US. Perhaps the feeling itself
is natural and not without its possible
use. But that depends wholly upon how
we treat it. If it simply arouses US to
review our position, to examine into the
exact quality of the criticism, and give
it its due weight, and thus tostand stead
lastly upon a still firmer. basis, it has
done a good work. But if, in our terror
at being censured or laughed at, we sud
denly repudiate our opinions, or let &c
our principles, or abandon our plans, or
change our methods, then we nave be-
gun to forge for ourselves chains of slav-
cry which will bind US with ever firmel
bonds to the most tickle and unreasona.
