paving from SO so to IS. 80.
Eddie McMurphy has been confined for
several days but is about again.
Bert Evans and sister, of Mercer
county, have returned home after spend
ing several days, visiting friends in this
vicinity.
There were several persons at the circus
in Erie yesterday. The menagerie con,
sisted of three elephants. one camel, two
tigers and one lion. The performance
was good.
The gravel pit opened last Thursday
with one train and crew of thirty men,
mostly from below. Mr.. johnson, from
the Rock Island yards. is in charge Of
the men in the pit.
| Steve Vosburg came near causing q
conflagration in town one day last week.
He was in an upper room shooting fire
CRACKERS, when the bed accidentally
caught fire and in an instant all was
ablaze. The burning material was thrown
out of window and extinguished before
any other damage was done.
Geo Rough, formerly of this vicinity.
and one of Canoe Creeks old settlers and
| pioneers, is here visiting some of his old
friends. His present abode is in Kansas
where he owns a large farm. He. in
company with his wife, drove through in
a top buggy. preferrIng to travel that
way. On his return trip he will visit
Iowa and Nebraska.
The Fourth of July will soon be at
hand and people will want to know where
to spend the holiday IN order to derive
the greatest amount of pleasure with the
least fatigue and trouble. Just such a
place will be found on the old Hillsdale
fair grounds. There is an abundance of
shade, spring water, etc. Swings will be
erected and refreshments of all kinds
kept on the grounds. Let everybody
come and bring their friends. The invi-
tation is general and extended to all;
don't forget the place-Hillsdale fair
grounds.
Quarterly meeting will be held at Rose
Hill July 18th. 1t is not yet known
whether Elder Wendell. the liberal. or
Elder Bender. the radical. will preside.
The church has had terrible breach
especially the radical faction. Out of the
1875 delegates To the general conference,
l 10 voted for the amendment to the con-
stitution, allowing members of secret So
cieties TO join the church. The remain
ing fifteen drew off from the church and
are going To attempt to hold all the prop
erty. As nearly as we can dete rhine out
of about forty members of this class. all
but four are liberals. and at Rose Hill all
except one are liberals. so it is more than
probable that liberal elder will hold the
quarterly meeting. The liberal element
here are very indignant at the action of
one of the radicals last Sunday at the U
b. church in making the announcement
that Elder Bender, the radical, would
hold the next quarterly meeting. and we
heard it frequently expressed that the
gentleman was getting out of his place.
We will in the near future furnish a
statement of this church affair from Prof
Beardshire, of the Toledo, Iowa, college.

ed many articles of ornamentation and

A wedding feast had been prepared by
the parents of the bride and groom, and

The usual treatment of catarrh is very
unsatis factory, as thousands of despair
ing patients can testify. On this oini
trustworthy medical writer says:
Proper local treatment is positively nec-
cessary to success. but many. if not most
of the remedies in general use by physi-
clans afford but temporary benefit. A
cure cannot certainly be expected from
snuffs. powders. douches and washes "
Ely's Cream Balm is remedy which
combines the important requisites of
quick action, specific curative power
with perfect safety and plessantness to
the patient.

PARLOR SCIENCE.

sumo rasy anu interesting Expert
ments In which salt aud Water are
the Main Ingredients simple
Things OF science.
An interesting homemade method of
natural decoration consists simply in TAX
Ing glass or goblet and placing in the
interior little common salt and water.
In a day or two a slight mist will be
seen upon the glass, which hourly will
increase. until in very short time the
glass will present beautiful appear
ance. being enlarged TO twice its thick
ness. and covered with beautiful salt
crystals. packed one upon an other, like
some peculiar fungus or animal growth.
A dish should be placed beneath the
glass, as the crystals will run over.
The color of the crystals may be
changed by placing in the salt and wa
ter some common red ink or a spoonful
Of blueing; this will be absorbed, and
the white surface covered with exquisite
tints.
No more simple method of producing
inexpensive or beautiful ornaments can
be imagined, and by using different
shapes of vases and shades an endless
variety of beautiful forms can he pro.
duced. The glass should be placed where
there is plenty of warmth and sunlight.
Another scientific experiment which
may interest some of the older, as well as
the younger members of the family, NAV
be made by suspending from the ceiling a
thread which has previously been soaked
in very salt water and then dried.
To this fasten light ring and announce
that you are about to burn the thread
without making the ring fall. The
thread will burn, it is true, but the ashes
1t leaves are composed of crystals of salt
and their cohesion is strong enough to
sustain the light weight of the ring at
tached to the thread.
Another form of the same experiment
is to make little hammock of muslin to
be suspended by four threads, and after
having soaked this in sailed water and
dried il as before directed, 10 place it in
an empty egg shell.
Set the hammock on fire; the muslin
will be consumed and the flame reach the
threads which hold il without the egg
falling from its frail support. With
great care you may succeed in performing
the experiment with full egg in place of
an empty shell. taking the precaution,
however, to have it previously bard
boiled, that you may escape an omelet in
case of failure.
Another curious experiment is that of
putting an egg into bottle without
breaking the shell. Soak the egg. which
must be fresh. for several days in strong
vinegar. The acid of the vinegar will
eat the lime of the shell. so that while
the egg looks the same it Is really very
soft.
Only little care is required to press
the egg into the bottle. When this is
done, fill IL half full of lime water and let
1t stand. The shell will absorb the lime
water and become hard again, and after
the lime water is poured off you have the
curious spectacle of an egg of the usual
size in a small necked bottle. which will
be great puzzle to those who do not
know how il is done.
