SPECIAL NOTICE !!

After large expenditure OF mon
ey, time and patience, | beg to ar
nounce that / have secured the SER
vices of the best Bread and Cake
baker in the State, and am now
fully prepared to furnish every day
s0athout fail, the very best BREAD.
ROLLS, BUNS, CAKES, &C., at
popular prices. use only the fin
est material; keep everything clean
and nice about the Bakery and you
can always rely on getting pure,
sweet and wholesome bread. My
bread guaranteed not to contain
alum or any other deleterious sub
stances, as the -four, ect., used does
not require the use OF anything to
make the bread white. Call and
see for yourself. This is strictly
speaking, a Marietta enterprise,
managed by an old citizen and is
intended to help in u modest way in
building up and adding to the pros
perity of our little city. Every dol
lar spent here remains in Marietta,
and adds that much to her prosperi-
ty. This enterprise should and is
receiving the cordial support of our
people, to large extent, but should
receive the patronage of all her
citizens, especially those who love
good wholesome bread. When in
want of fine Groceries you know
where to get them at, and am glad
to say that my trade is an evidence
that you are good Judges of what to
buy. Poor goods should be sold at
poor prices; unfortunately they are
not sold that way, as many OF you
know to your sorrow, but if you
want the very best class of Grocer
les at fair prices, you should not
neglect to call and examine my
stock and get quotations. / buy none
but the best as my few ''brief sum-
mers" Of experience here taught me
that they are the cheapest.
Yours truly,

INDIANA SOLID.

The delegation from Indiana will be
solid for Gen. Harrison at the Chicago
convention. A special from Indianapolis
says:
Conventions were held in each congress
sionaI district in Indiana on Wednesday
for the selection of delegates to the ma
tional republican convention. The con-
tests i'll some of the districts between the
friends OF General Harrison and Judge
Gresham was spirited, but the victory of
General Harrison was sweeping one.
III some districts there was no opposi-
ton to him, and in all of them except
Ole the delegates chosen were instructed
for him. The Xth district delegates were
given 10 instructions for the reason,
stated in resolution, adopted by the
convention. that it was deemed advis-
able that they should be free to vote as
might seem best for the party, and the
interests of the state. The delegates who
were elected in that district, however,
are pledged to General Harrison, thus
giving him practically solid delegation.

IMPURE FOOD.

Exceeding caution should be exercised
in the purchase of a new article of food.
Many recent cases of serious illness have
been reported from the use of the new
patent foods for infants, from INFESTED
baking powders, and cheap flavoring ex-
tracts. The desire for rapid wealth ill
duces INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers to
place anything before the public that will
sell at large profit, without regard to
it's usefulness or healthfulness. At pres
ent there is great raid upon the baking
powder market, and so many impure and
adulterated articles of this kind have
been found peddled about the country
that the authorities in several of the
states have taken the necessary action to
expose them. The report of the Ohio
state food commission has shown that a
large number of the brands sold here are
made from alum phosphates, or a cheap
and adulterated cream of tartar. The
danger to the public is made still greater
by the unblushing efrontery with which
the proprietors of these impure powders
advertise them as perfect, claiming for
them all kinds of false and impossible en-
dorsements.
The official report of the Ohio state
food commission gives the names of
number of these impure powders, and the
amount of impurity and inert matter in
each as follows:

White Swelling.

Mr.. M. s. Hamlin, one of the best known
insurance men in North Carolina, writes
from Winston, as follows: "Ever since
was seven years of age I have had what
the doctors call hip disease, and which I
call white swelling. My hip was drawn
out of place. There was swelling at the
knee-joint, where there is profuse run
ming, which has been there for years. OF
course this has greatly depleted my sys-
tenn, together with surgical operation on
the leg bone. I tried every known blood
purifier to build up my system, but none
did me good until took s. s. 8. use 1t

CIRCUMSTANCES have arisen which
rnakeit important that delegates friendly
to the nomination of Mr.. Blaine should
be sent to Chicago.-Duluth Tribune.
VIII the Tribune be more explicit,
please, and state what the circumstances
are? Mr. Blaine has unequivocally de-
clined to have His name presented to the
Chicago convention, which means that
he docs not want to be nominated. To
construe the letter in any other way is to
charge him with political trickery worthy
Of pot-house POLITICAL, and would GER
taiuly lower him in public esteem. Mr..
Blaine is an able man and would make a
president Of whom his party would be
justly proud. His reputation now rests
upon broader basis than mere political
s!lrewdress-he is statesman of breadth
ard Independence. But he certainly
would have to descend from this exalted
position if it were understood that his
courageous and able letter must be read
between the lines to ascertain its true
import, and that directly opposite the
plain construction of its text.
