An egg merchant, who goe. from house to

that he expected to have to pay 80 cents a
dozen for eggs before Christmas.
This is remarkable. when we reflect that
the poultry industry of this county last year
amounted to nearly seven hundred million
dollars; and even then, We had to import
several million dollars worth of foreign eggs.
Our own egg-rsisers ought to have this money
The demand for fresh egg. for food alone
far exceeds the supply. At fifty cents per
dozen eggs are as cheap As beefstesk for
food. Many persons who keep hen. will
probably not have an egg to sell when they
reach fifty cents. Some one may ask, what

There has been no limit to the abuse

licans and Republican news papers be-
cause Of the many stories in circulation
uufavorable to the private life and morals
OF the recent democratic candidate for the
Presidency. How unjust these criticisms
have been is plainly evinced by the fol

issue of November p
This outrageous falsehood originated

and statistics show conclu.ively that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat and

everyone, without exception, receives vast
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable soil
they start into life and develop, at first slowly
and are shown ~ slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
raVages they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if al
lowed to proceed will in time cause death.
At the onset you must act with promptness
allowing q cold to 20 without attention is
dangerous and may lose you your life. As
soon as you feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, obtain a
