Fire at La Belle.

A destructive FIRE occurred at La
Belle last Saturday night which de.
stoyed nine buildings and entailed a
loss of about $4,000. The IRE started
IN the wareroom OF ]. N. Haldeman,
aud was clearly the work of incen dia-
rles. Among the business houses
burned were Haldeman's hardware
store, Balls drug store. Ohnesorge's
shoe shop. Scott's restaurant, Moore's
drug store, Bakers barber shop.
Strode's residence and some others.
The hotel was saved only by tearing
away a building between it and the
fire. The citizens, without any fire ap-
paratus did noble work in battling the
flames and the wonder is how they did
so well. The buildings destroyed
were all frame, and the loss, occurring
in the dead of winter, will be severely
felt by the town. News, Canton.

The best business man in the city of
ALBANY to day said yesterday that he
spent the most money for advertising
when people felt poorest. THAT is the
time he said, when people read ad-
vertisements. L! they find a store ad.
vertislng bargains they will leave
their old place and so to the newer, and
the new one, if it is smart, will keep
them every time, The old fashioned
business man will feel that he must do
things in modern style if he wants to
swim with the current. - Albany

Many persons are under the erro-
neous impression that liver complaints
belong to the category OF incurable
diseases. If they could see the testi-
monials showing the cures that have
been effected by Mishler's Herb Bitters,
their ideas on that point would change.
Mrs Annie Musselman, of Lancaster,
Pa, says: Il suffered for ten years
with liver complaint, and our best ply
siclans failed to relieve me. Mishler's
Herb Bitters cured me-"
