In his essay on "The Pleasures Of
Eating" Count Rumford says: "The
pleasure enjoyed in eating depsnds-
first, on the agreeableness Of the taste
of the food: AMI, secondly. upon its
power to affect the palate. Now, there
are many substances extremely cheap
by which very agreeable tastes my he
given to food, particularly when the
basis or nutritive substance Of the food
is tasteless; and the effect of any kind
of palatable food (of meat, for inxance)
upon the organs of taste, may Ne in.

the size of the particles of sucl food,
and causing it to act upon the paate by
a larger surface. And il means lie used

which may easily he done by mixing
IL with some hard and tasteless sub.
stance. such as crumbs Of bread rem

of the kind, by which long mastcation
is rendered necessary-the enjoyment
OF eating may he greatly increased and

afforling him much pleasure at the

Notes from New Bavaria.
NEW BAVARIA, Feb. 81, l

New BAVARIA, Feb. q, 1885.
EDITOR NORTHwEsT:-We have no
ticed communications from various
parts of this great Democratic county
in various publications of your worthy
journal, and felt somewhat sighted
that our section of the county had not
been represented. Ifyou will allow us
space now and in the future, we will
try and keep you, Mr.. Editor, as well
as your worthy readers, posted on the
topics of the day.
Firstly we desire to say that busn ess
has been quite lively during the past
winter. Logs have been coming to the
Hornung factory en- nadsse, in fact there
are now over one million and half
feet of logs in the yard, together with
probably five hundred cords of bolts of
eye measure. Jacob has been attend
ing to the measurement and you can
tell the people of the whole county that
no more honest factory man has ever
lived in this county or any other; he
is without doubt the best man among
men; he understands his business to
perfection and is liked by every one
who has dealings with him.
An uncommon occurrance we desire
to make known to your readers is, that
on Wednesday morning the 25th of
February, Christ Hess, driving one of
Jacob Hornung's teams hauled 5000
feet of Sycamore lumber to Kuhn Bros
mill at Defiance, while his comrade
Charles Speith, could only carry 4,S0(
feet of the same kind of lumber to the
same place. Some of the old drivers
and owners of horses may perhaps OBJ
ject and doubt this but we know exact
ly whereof we speak, and should any
one desire to know the names and pedi.
gree of the horses hauling the loads we
are ready to give them in the next
issue of your journal.
Next in order would naturally be
politics. AS to the various county
Offices to be filled we can say that we
have heard the name of George Daum
an old and original settler in this town
ship spoken of, while some people are
trying to push forward the names O.
John B. Mess and Bill Zieroff; as to the
competency of the last two gentlemen
we will leave that to the ballot box or
the first Monday in April; for our par
we consider Mr.. Daum worthy of any
position he may ask of the people.
| Now, Mr.. Editor, fearing you will
permit us no more space we will clos'
for to-day, and should you desire tt
hear weekly reports of our doings We
will endeavor to give them to you cor
rectly. Truly yours,
BENEDICT.

Sunday morning Eli Kelb, a convict
from Seneca county, committed suicide
at the Penitentiary by taking morphine.
He was sent up March IA, 1878, to serve
fifteen years for assaulting with intent
to kill one of the directors of the Seneca
County Infirmary. Previous to that he
had served q term for crime COM
mitted in Henry county.-Bee 2d.
KELB was sent up from this coun-
ty in 1873 for burglary for two
years, under the name of James Wilson.
He was serving the present term for as
sault with intent to kill one of the Di-
rectors of the Seneca County Infirmary,
and an indictment is now pending
against him in that county for the mur,
der of an inmate of the Infirmary,
which he confessed since he has been
in prison. This seems to have weighed
on his mind, ,and was the cause of his at
tempts to take his life. He tried to
commit suicide September 8, 1876, by
mutilating his person, but was discov.
cred in the act and prevented. On
March, Is, '79, the prisoner tried to escape
by scaling the wall, but was discovered
and brought back. The prisoner was
twenty-seven years old when received
at the prison, and had but one arm and
two fingers on the hand, having beer
badly cut up in a railroad wreck.

Roller-rink Osborne, the gay young
masher who recently caused sensation
by marrying Becca Kearsley, the Bucy-
rus heiress, has at last come to grief and
is now languishing in prison cell.
Col. Sterling, the guardian of Kearsley
girl, got letter saying that the giddy
Sylvester made little history while
stopping at Ridgeway, Pa. There he
married, April %, 1884, girl named
Ella Harps. After two months Osborne
deserted Ella, and started on roller
mashing tour, and his wife heard moth
ing from him until the Bucyrus esca-
pade. Col. Sterling went to Ridgeway
and investigated, and Monday a
brother of Ellis came to Ohio with the
colonel for the purpose of identifying
Osborne. This he did, and the roller
rinker was promptly arrested on the
charge of bigamy, and taken to Upper
Sandusky Jail. He will be tried in
Wayndot county because of his mar
riage with Becca there.

Building Boom in Napole on

Building Boom IN Napole On
While the prospect for the erection
of large number of buildings IN Ma
poleon during the spring and summer
of 1885 is not quite so flattering as 1t
might be, or as other seasons have
been, there will be more than the usual
number decorated outside and inside
and additions built, and large and ex-
tensive improvements made on those
which have been in the course of con-
struction. That good times are near
at hand, and better still a coming, is
evidenced, not only by the prepara
tions for extensive improvements in
and around Napoleon, bu: throughout
the country everywhere. Saur has
already made all the necessary ar,
rangements and purchases of the dif-
ferent kinds of materials for the spring
trade, which will be largely in demand
at prices which cannot fail to attract
the attention of all close buyers. The
outside decorations which, within the
last few years have become so very
popular and fashionable, and can only
be made with good paint, can always
be found nice and fresh in all shades
and colors, and in any quantity to suit
purchasers at Saur's Drug and Paint
Store at lower prices than have ever
been known on some quality of goods.
Even old buildings which are almost
ready to tumble down, can, with few
dollars worth Of these colored paints,
be made to look nice and good as new.
For Cne inside decorations within the
last five or six years paper has largely
taken the place of paint for several
reasons; the two principle of which are,
first, that 1t is very much cheaper, and
consequently can be changed oftener;
and second, that it can be made to look
more rich and beautiful, and 1t needs
no special artist from Paris or London
to apply 1t. Great improvements are
constantly being made in these paper
decorations for Walls and Ceilings
The designs for wall paper and window
shades this coming season are great
Improvement over those of the past.
The patterns are smaller and the soft
colors on exquisitely tinted grounds,
are much easier to match with furh-
ishing. Our colors so far have been
too glaring, the hues presenting toe
strong a contrast. White grounds
have re-appeared, showing. the lighter
tints to perfection. All who appre
ciate the new and beautiful, will be
pleased to look over the grand stock a,
Saur's Book and News Depot, even
though they may not want to make
any purchases. In the line of all kinds
of brushes for the painter or white
washer, Saur always carries CON-
plete stock, which he warrants to give
satisfaction. Making his purchases
direct from the manufacturers he is
prepared to replace any brush that
may come to pieces before worn out
free of charge. Everybody can always
depend on finding large and com,
plete stock Of everything in the line Of
Drugs, Medicines and Books, in addi
tion to the above. No department or
part of his stock is ever neglected, but
everything is selected and purchased
with the greatest care with reference
to pleasing customers in quality as well
as price.
