Misunderstanding and ironing and
washing rough dry. The best of work
at low prices. Call on Mrs. Mehaffey,
opposite Rehfuss' tannery.
In a New York court an attorney de.
nounced the Clerk as a liar, and the
Clerk hit him in the mouth, loosening
his teeth. In Eaton court for an attor-
ney to call another a liar, is considered
a joke.
Hancock county papers are cautioning
their readers loudly against the Bohe-
milan oats agents. 1t would seem that
a sensible man would hardly need to be
cautioned against buying oats at $40 per
bushel.
Table Linens, Napkins, Towels and
Towelings in great variety, cheaper than
ever before sold in Eaton-Mammoth

Why is it that men are always in a
hurry when they are in a barber shop?
Men who have done nothing for a week
and do not expect to do anything for the
next week make a terrible fuss if they
are obliged to wait half an hour for their
turn.
The candidate for Mayor or Council
man who won't pledge himself to oppose
all unnecessary street work, and help to
cut down Corporation taxes, ought to get
the go by. Our Corporation taxes are
too high. Give US "Reform'' and de-
feat of the fellows who have "axes to
grind"
If a we'll be poisoned, woe be to those
who drink thereat. 1t is worse to poison
the fountain of life for ones self, and for
posterity. Often by carelessness, or mis-
fortune, or inheritance, this has been
done. Ayers Sarsaparilla frees the
blood, the vital stream, and restores ap-
petite, strength, and health.
1t is now fashionable to look clean,
lank and hungry" Why this style of
supposed loneliness should be preferred
to good natured looking plumpness is an
unanswered conundrum, and it can only
be attributed to another craze, which is
rapidly making a great part of the world
akin in the. new species OF madness.
We are selling Dayton Carpet Chain,

The Agricultural Board held a called
meeting last Saturday in the office of
Secretary Farr, and agreed to rebuild
the stabling that was destroyed by fire a
short time ago. President Snyder and
Philip Miller were appointed a commit
tee to draft specifications of the build
ings.
a young man of business reputation
and means from Cincinnati, was in Ea-
ton last week looking around for a room
to open out a new business. He inform
ed US he was we'll pleased with the place,
but couldn't find e ROOM. He left for
Greenville or Sidney. Won't some Of
our capitalists build a few business
rooms? We have the ground, why not
utilize it?
No other medicine is SO reliable as
Ayers Cherry Pectoral for colds, coughs
and all arrangements of the respiratory
organs tending toward consumption. In
all ordinary cases it is a certain cure,
and it affords sure relief for the asthma
tic and c~onsumptive, even in advanced
stages of disease.
We are indebted to J. W. B. Siders
for a handsome copy of his "Songs of a
Pleb." We make no p%retension to crit
icising poetry, but know that many con-
tributions in the work contain fine and
excellent sentiment, equal to older and
more popular authors. The book is hand
somely got up and well printed, and
sells at IS cents, $1.0O and $500 per copy.

A person presenting claims to the
County Commissioners for damages for
sheep killed or injured must bring with
him two DIsINTEREsTED freehold witness
es who have examined the sheep and
will testify to their value. It is also the
duty of the owner to first find out if pos
sible whose dogs killed the sheep, and
that it wal not his own dog. This is re-
quired by Section 4215 of the Revised
Statutes, and will save trouble and delay
if complied with.

A demure looking lady agent has can
vassed Springfield selling a new improv-
ed glove fitting corset. The woman was
such a glib talker that she sold a corset
to almost every young lady in the place.
She called herself Mrs. Miller, and ap-
peared to be a very nice woman, though
she seemed to take extraordinary pains
in fitting the corsets on and seeing that
they were just so, alleging as for so do
ing that the fit was very particular. 1t
now turns out that the alleged woman
was a young man in woman's clothes
and clean shaven. The young women
who bought the corsets are furiously an
CRY, but of course it is a pretty hard mat
ter to find a woman who will admit hay
ing bought a corset. The police are on
the lookout for the young man.
The amount realized from the enter
tainment on Wednesday evening last,
given by the Knights of Honor for the
benefit of the poor of Eaton, was $46.15
1t ought to have been double the amount.
