dence. Lucas county, last Monday. Frank
Manor. as he was familiarly called. was
born May 18th. 1872, at Miami, now Lucas

ON account of the war his father moved to
what is now Fremont, and from there to Up
per Sandusky, and after the close of the war
again moved to Maumee and shortly after to
Providence, where Frank grew from boy
hood to manhood. He was perhaps more
widely known in the Maumee Valley than
any other man, and was in himself an ency-
clopedia of early "reminiscences. Thus ends
the life of one who for more than three quar-
ters of century was resident of the Mau-

The discovery by the inhabitants of a locality hitherto unvisited by the estilent scourge ot fever and ague, that it exists in their very midst, is decidedly startlin. Such discoveries are made at every season, In every part of the Union. Subsequently, when It Is ascertaiHed, as it invariably is at sucl times. through the valuable experience of some one W ho has been benefited and cured, that HO-tetter's Stomach Bitters is a thoroughly etficacious eradicator of the malarial poison, and a means of fortlfying the system against it, feeling of more se curity and tranquility reigns throughout the whole neighborhood. Besides the febrile forms of mslarial disease, dumb ague and ague cake are removed by the potent action or the Bitters, to which science also gives lts sanction as a remedy for rheumatism, dyspePsla, constipation, liver complaint, debility, kidney troubles, and all diseases lmPairing the organs of digestion and assim- ilation.
