Good News to the AmIcted.

DIR. frances visits at the Miller
House Napoleon are becoming very
busy days for him; during his last visit
he was pleased to discharges number
ofhis old patients whom he had treated,
who feel themselves permanently
cured, and express their heartfelt
thanks to the Doctor for the benefit
they have received from his treatment.
The great secret of the Doctors success
is that he is recently from the great
hospitals of the country, and has the
latest and most approved remedies at
his command. He prepares his own
medicines from the finest drugs and
chemicals purchased from the most
reliable drug firms in this country and
Europe. His next visit will be Wednes-
day, April 80.

lHE American system of ''treatipg,,
III oar rooms and other places where
strong drinks are sold, has been made q
misdemeanor by law in Nevada. Tho
anti-treating law "makes setting ,em
up" punishable by fine and imprison-
meht, either or both. 1t is made wafer
light, ana therefore water tight, and
would require ingenuity to evade it.
which when possessed can be enployed
10 better advantage than in law-break-
ing. The first section of the act makes
1t unlawful to treat or to be treated and
fixes the penalty for its infractiop. The
other sections constitute any attempted
evasion of the law greater offepse than
Its open violation and attach still moro
severe penalties for practicing chicanerv
or subterfuge. The fines when collect
ed go to the school fund or the county
In which the offense is committed and
conviction had. This Nevada law is
founded on the principle that treating
is a vice, rather than drinking is a per-
nicious habit. Liquor selling is licensed
and therefore lawful. A man NAV 60
IN a saloon and pay for all the liquor he
wants to drink himself, but he is not
permitted to pay for his friends tipple.
The theory is, that under this regula-
ton party of ten or dozen drinking
after they treat all around often have
more than they can carry. The law
covers allkinds ofdistilled spirits, wines,
malt beverages and even takes i'm cider.
Lemonades, soda and seltzer are exempt
from its provisions, but to pay for
another mans ice-watcr would be re-
garded as chicanery and subterfupe.

Flour or Grist Mill.

The propriety Of building grist mill In Napoleon
by the farmers Of the county and others interested
is subject that has been talked of slightly fol
several years, but dec ded action has been taker
to inaugerate the enterprise. This article is for tn.
purpose of arousing in the minds of Others who have
not given much thoug to the subject, to more
| serious investigation, for we think the time has
| arrived for action in this matter. We have taken
the abuse of monopoly in this business long enough;
we know that mankind are inclined to bear, to be
swindled and robbed even when they know this to
be fact, rather than to rid themselves of it. The
time has come when those who commit these
abuses not only in Henry county, but in other Sec
tions OF the country, that they had better stand
from under for they will hear something drop, If
they do not repent and do works for repentance
We propose to build mill by cooperation Of suf-
flcent capacity to more than compete with any
thing in this county, both in quality and quantity.
Some of us have been interviewing the different
millwrghts, not only of this but in other States in
regard to prices of machinery and the erection of
the same. Milwrights are encouraging us In erect
ing burr mill for custom work, and will warrant
not only the work and machinery but the -four
shall be superior to whatSwe are receiving ut our
to"h ulis ~ thlo duu Ii, all we want
is just Dues which farmers are satisfied they are
not getting nOw either in milling, buying or selling
We expect to save enough in three years to pay us
for all the stock invested, and If will pay
you small dividend in few years, enough to pay
interest on the money invested. Wake up farmers
and let rid ourselves of these curses that are now
In our midst. Reform of those now in our midst
would save themselves and us from further trouble,
but we fear they scared in their sins and there
is chance of repentance for them, although they
seek it with tears.
We will soon make an appeal to the farmers and
all interested for them to convene in Napoleon and
take decisive action on this matter. Come one,
come all and give your influence to an enterprise
that will save you more money than the amount of
your taxes. This meeting will be to organize joint
stock company. The mill will cost less than fifteen
thousand dollars Notwithstanding the exaggerated re-
ports OF the cost Of town mills The talk is among
some to apply steam power, others want water pow

DANGEROUS SURGICAL OPERAIIoE.-A fatal
mistake. At the time DR.. Vance, Of Cleveland per-
formed the operation on lady for the removal Of
cancer of the stomach he found when too late that
the poor woman had no cancer TO be removed. Tho
disease was indigestion, and II he had taken the
Shaker Extract Of Roots (Siegcs Syrup that awful
distress at the pit of the stomach which made the
doctors think she had cancer, would have been re-
the head, with pains in the side and back all vanish
after using this wonderful remedy The tired ian
gqid feeling gives place to strength and yigor.
Mrs. Della Marsh writes from Pea Ridge, Benton
Co., Ark. that she had dyspepsia In the worst form
for i've years. and that nothing gave any relief until
she used the Siege Syrup She Rays that two bottles
cured her, The Shaker Tar Capsules are good for

Good Economy.
1t is much easier to make money than it
is to save it. 1t is sometimes necessary to

wood in such way that it will last al
most forever, besides improving the looks
so that if you should want to sell you

erty. Paints and oils are cheap, brushes
are cheap and labor is cheap. Saur has
very large and complete stock of paints,
oils and varnishes, which he guarantees to
be strictly first-class and to give satisfac-
ton. 1t embraces all the latest and most
popular tints, shades and colors as well.as
all the old and staple ones. Remember
that Saur makes speciality of the John

Attention !


Farmers and others who raise chickens:
You all know that many OF your eggs have
weak and broken shells and some only
covered with thin lining. What is tn e
reason? The want of limestone, which is
not plentiful in our ground. Ground oys-
ter shells supplies this; 100 lbs is enough
for 100 chickens one year, and costs you
$l,25 per hundred lbs. If substitute is
not found for limestone the fowls eat their
own eggs; never feed them egg shells. II
100 chickens only lay one bad covered egg
each, the loss would pay for the substitute;
but the loss is much greater than one i'm
perfect egg for each fowl. The use ofground
oyster shells is also healthy for the fowls,
and prevents chicken cholera. We will
keep this chicken feed for you. ryitand
look for the result.
