Much Sickness g,

There has been more sickness in Henry
county this winter than we have had for
many years. Nothing very serious, but near
ly everybody is troubled with colds, coughs,
sore throat &c. Saur & Balsley have full
line and complete stock of the remedies in
general use for the cure of the above named
disease, remedies which can be relied on as
doing just what they are recommended to do.
They are cheap, easy to take and not in the
least injurious to even the smallest children.
Saur & Balsley have been in business for
many years and their long experience in bu-
siness enables them to secure that which is
best and most reliable. A few doses of the
right kind of medicine, if taken in time. very
often prevents long spell of sickness and it
has been known to save even life itself.

Mr.. stanley's Personal Nara tive.

The interesting fact is announced by
Messrs. Charles Scribner's Sons that they
have acquired from Mr.. Henry M. Stanley
all the American rights for his personal mar
rative of the expedition for the relief of Emin
Pasha. Prior to the appearance of the COM
plete work, Scribner's Magazine will publish
an article upon his last journey by Mr.. Stan
ley. 1t will be illustrated and is certain to
be as important contribution as any that
has ever appeared in an American Magazine.
Readers may have noticed that Mr.. Herbert
Ward, who was one of Stanley's officers.
makes no mention of the expedition in the
article recounting his experiences upon the
Congo, which appears in Scribner's for
February, the fact being that Mr.. Stanley
has reserved the sole right to describe this
most remarkable of all his African un der.
takings.

Madam Fry Concert.

No doubt one of the best entertainments of
the season will be the Madam Fry Concert on
Saturday evening, at the Opera House.
Madam Fry, in connection with her three
talented daughters, compose a quartet
which 1t is difficult to excel, in both vocal
and string music. Quite a number of our
citizens have heard these ladies in concert
and all pronounce them artists of high abili-
ty. Mr.. Wentworth, who intersperses the
concert with recitations, is an elocutionist of
we'll known ability, and wherever he appears
pleases everybody. Our citizens should Sc
cure seats at once for this entertainment.

in this country that meets with the approval
of the public, especially of farmers: 1t is

he has right to pass, and if he is prevented
by the other and an accident should happen
thereby, the man thus obstructing the road is
responsible for the damage done. No man
