While Sheridan was in Europe during
the Franco-P russian war he wrote let
ter to exCollector Thomas Murphy, OF
New York, in which he said:
"The German line here is 600 miles
long, and extends from Berlin to Paris,
and / merely want to say that il had
%, 600 of the men that 1 had with me
down the Valley I'd make them shorten
these lines d. quick"
Mr.. Murphy's comment on this is:
"You see Phil was IN American, and he
believed what seemed impossible to the
Europeans was easy ofaccomplishmentto
Americans.

a more unmilitary looking man never

very short, and each year seemed to add
to the rotundity OF his figure. His

through the war Democrat, most EN-
phatically say, No! His paper Is q
gatling gun of abuse and TRADE, ever
pointed towards the Democratic party,
and always open to any Republican
who might wish to turn the crank and
replenish the ammunition. He draws
from large bank account ofimmagina-
ton any facts (?) that suits his fancy,
and TeprOduces them to the people as
glarlng crimes of our county commits
sioners. By quotation of the records,
wholly immaginary, he portryas the
failure to cross a st" or dot an "i' as q
penitentiary offence. The ellison
bridge nonsence, by which he claimed
that George Daum robbed the county
of $50, proved only q typographical
error, as the printer, in setting the type
for the Commissioners report, inverted
a 6 thus making 8. Yet, he claimed
to have taken it from the records, and
even went so far as to quote thevoucher
as s, ,942 when the correct number is g.
435. Mr.. ellison himself said, with the
use of forcible adjectives, that Malley
deliberately misrepresented it to the
people. The base charges against E. r..
Barnes have been refuted by Mr.. Pill
liod, he can say nothing detrimental to
Jas. Ragan, and Henry Bostelman since
he came into office has saved the coun-
ty over $500 by his close financeering.

Where Log Cabins Flourish.

A party of American gentlemen, who
had been camping out on an island in
the great Lake Nipissing, Canada, last
summer, were returning in a sail boat
and were yet seven miles from port
when the sun went down, and with it
the sailing breeze.
A discouraging situation, truly.
Never mind, can row you there
inside of two hours" said the guide
who had charge of the party, and their
murmurs arose.

are four of US in this heavy boat-its a
big job you undertake." said one.

fore and can do it again." cheerfully re-
piled the brOad-shouldered Irishman,
as he slowed away the sail and bent to
the oars. He was splendid oarsman
and the boat was soon under headway
again.
"What would I not give to enjoy
your health and strength" remarked
the professor.
"Yes, 1 am pretty healthy, and
though | am past sixty feel as strong
as ever,n replied the guide. "But only
three years ago stood at Deaths door,
and never thought to pull an oar
again. You see, was in the woods all

"Yes, went twenty miles through

"How was the cure etfected?"
IAN old Scotch lady, who had come
over from the States, gave me a pre-
paration Of balsams and herbs, which
she said the early settlers in America
used, and it soon stopped my cough and
put me on my feet again.
One has but to travel along the
frontier to learn how easy it is to get
along without doctors, and how effec-
tive are the natural remedies which the
old grandmothers know how to pre-
pare. They often cure where the best

A Paying Investment.

Inere is certainly a Time TO
talk and q time to be silent, and
believing that it is the time to
talk, and as we have something
to say of vast Importance, we
wish all to lend a hearing ear.
But before we come down to
business, and the convincing
proof that it is a paying invest
ment to call upon us, we wish
to relate a little incident. A
friend of ours, who is a locomo-
tive engineer, says that our
competitors remind him of an
engine, stalled on an up grade;
they puff and blow, but they
can't get to the top. That is
the whole story, he says, you
get there every time! An old
proverb says: Taste the pud-
ding for it is chuck full of plums,
and the proof Of the pudding is
in the eating thereof. Now, we
are chuck full Of good things for
those in need, and who is not
in need, and we save you mon
ey every time.
This is just the season of the
year to pick up bargains with
us, and even if you do not wish
to use the goods now,. it will
pay you to lay them by until
you do. Our wall paper de-
partment is not thinned out by
any means, being full of nice
stylish patterns of ceiling and
side decorations, which we are
selling at prices which cannot
be duplicated in the wholesale
markets at present. These goods
were bought or contracted for
before the recent raise in the
price of wall paper, and we are
selling them to our customers
at no advance. Think of it, you
can make your room comforta-
BILE on an outlay of a few dol
lars at the most. Prices will
never again be SO low. We also
have a full line Of window shades
and curtains, together with all
the necessary fixings.
And as this is the sickly sea-
son Of the year, and colds tax
ing possession of almost every
one, it will be q good invest
ment to lay in supply of our
never failing remedies for relief.
Our drugs and medicines are
fresh, as no stale goods are kept
on hand. In connection with
all necessary remedies for the
human body we also have rem
edies and preventatives of dis
ease for animals. 1t is a good
investment to keep your ami
mails also in a good and healthy
condition. If they feel bad give
them some Of our remedies and
place them again in good work.
ing condition. A sick animal
can no more work than a sick
man or woman can. We guar
antee our medicines pure.
Our book and periodical de-
partment is full and complete,
and it is astonishing how low
books can be bought. Why,
you can buy enough literature
to last you a whole year at a
very small outlay. All the lat
est publications Of the day, and
school books, bibles,papers,pe
inks, pencils, in fact everything
in the stationery line in stock.
The cold winter evenings are
coming on, and now is the time
to provide yourself with reading
matter. It isa good investment.

iety, and our paint department
