small valley on a ravine In the hills just

quicksilver. There are many believers in

The Explorers y Trip.

Several members Of the boat club at
Frankfort Main recently re-
solved to row to Mayence by night. 1t
was just IL o'clock when they seated
themselves in their boat, grasped. their
oars, and babe their friends on shore
farewell. They pulled vigorously all
night, greatly enjoyed the heathful
exercise, the gloom and quiet, and the
wierd beauty of the river. Their own
chagrin and the wild delight of their
friends may be imagined when they
found at sunrise they had forgotten to
weigh anchor, and were still fast to
the float from which they had embarked.
They are now not known to all Frank
fort as the explorers"

Peter Was Right.

The great Peter Cooper is credited
with the following:
I'm all towns where a newspaper is
published every man should advertise,
even if nothing more than a card tell
ing his name and business in which he
is engaged. 1t not only pays the adver-
tiser, but lets the people at a distance
know that the town you reside in has
q prosperous class of business men.
As the seed is sown, SO it recompenses.
Never pull down the sign while you in
tend to do business, for it often indi-
Gates that your grip commercially is
broken. The judiciOus advertiser will
receive, ten dollars for every one in
vested in the columns Of a local paper.

Indigestion's Martyrs.

Half the diseases Of the human family spring
from . disordered stomach. and may be pre-
vented by invigorsting and tonin that abused
and neglected organ with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters Let it be borne in mind that the liver.
the kidneys. the intsstines, the muscles, the lie-
aments, the bones. the nerves. the integuments
are all renewed and nourished by the blood. and
that the digestive organs arc the grand alembic
in which the materials of the vital tiuida arc pre-
pared. When the stomach fails to provide
healthful nourishment for its dependencies they
necessarily suffer. and the ultimate result. II the
evil Ii not arrested, will be chronic and probably

goetion may be prevented by the timely and
regular use OF that sovereign antidote to dys-
pepsia, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

Something Wrong.

There is something wrong in Con-
necticut. Three men were recently
convicted in that State of embezzling
the funds of a bank and sentenced to
hard labor in the State Prison for four
years. When the courts become SO far
lost to a sense of propriety as to con-
Wet rich embezzlers it is time for the
wealthy to look about them and see
where they stand. If this kind of a
thing becomes epidemic the first thing
we know it may become as much of an
offense to steal a million dollars as it
is to fitch a loaf of bread, and it may
meet with a severe punishment.
