To the Afflicted.


DR.. France, the experienced and skillful
specialist, will make his next visit to the
Miller House, Napoleon, on Wednesday, July
29th. His specially is chronic or long stand
ing diseases, diseases of digestion, kidney
and bladder diseases, diseases of women, etc.,
etc. 1t is well known fact, and one that ap-
peals to the Judgment of every thinking per-
son, that the physician who devotes his whole
time to the study and investigation of GER
tain class of diseases, must become better
qualified to treat such complaints than he
who attempts to treat every ill without giving
special attention to any class of diseases.
Medical science offers vast field for investi-
CATION, and no physician can, within the
brief limits of lifetime, achieve the highest
degree of success in the treatment of every
malady incident to humanity.

A correspondent from Deshler says:

The energetic citizens of Deshler are now
agitating the extention of the Deshler d Nc
Comb Railroad to Napoleon. This is just
what is needed by the residents of this far-off
corner of Henry county, where it now entails
a drive of twenty-four miles or ride by rail
of fifty or seventy five miles, the county seat
would be brought within a half hours ride.
This should meet with encouragement from
the citizens of Napoleon, as it would open up
direct intercourse with this rich section and
give them another route to Toledo and the

Young men who have no special work to do
seldom amount to much. Idleness will ruin
the most promising young man. 1t does not
matter much in what work a young man may
engage if he is always busy. The honor is
not in the vocation but in the man. The
young man who determines upon some special
line of work and then devotes his time and
energy to that work will not n AXE failure OF
life. The world is waiting for men of action
We have no sympathy for the young man who
spends his time loaing and talking about

The following is clipped from the Adrian
Record. Mr.. B. was former Napoleon boy,
mention of whom we made last week, con-
cerning his sad death:
John Biggin's Dog.-When boy of or
years, John Biggins, who suicided here last
week, paid five cents for dog. The canine
has always been a fast friend of his purchas-
er. After John had taken the fatal dose, the
dog lay under the bed of his master, an un.
usual thing for him. After his death, when
laid on the cooling board, the disconsolate
quadruped took his station under that. Mex
morning he was out at the door moaning pit
eously, expressing his grief as well as pool
friendiess canine could. At the funeral ht
followed the hearse to the grave as CHIEF
mourner.
