We are glad to see DR.. D. D. Carter out
again after his severe attack of grippe
The Doctor is looking pretty considerably
the worse for his hard tnsle with this
miserable disease, bnt it is hoped that a
few days of bright weather will bring
him around all right.
A special agent of the weather and sig
nal service was in town this week. He
found that Lee Bargelt had dropped the
awning over his spring and summer eye,
and in consequence will announce bright
and warm weather to prevail from now
on.
We learn from the GreenbrieF hide
pendent that the condition Of Rev, J. c.
Dice, of Upperville. Va, was greatly i'm
proved at last accounts, and that strong
hopes of his recovery are entertained
The trouble WIS pneumonia, followed by
partial paralysis,
Garden making has commenced in
earnest, and every body is at it in full
rush. The ladies all have sharp and
dlsagreeable look of positive command
about them, while the men are walking
around with their backs bent up in a
camel like hump that is pitiful TO see.
The fi.hermen of this section have been
having irst-class luck this week, and
some splendid strings OF large yellow
suckers. the best fish in our streams, have
been brought in. On Monday evening
and night between one and two hundred
very fine ones were caught by Woodstock
fishermen.

Rev. MI Bushong, of this place, showed
US a Chicago paper published in the in
terest of Carter HARRISON for Mayor, that
was printed in thirty-four different
languages. 1t gives pretty good idea of
Chicago's make up, and the work an as
piring politician has before him in that
lively city.
Rev. Geo. E. Henderlite and Mr.. w. T.
Williams left Tuesday for Piedmont, W.
Va, to attend the session of the Winches-
ter Presbylery, now being held at that
place. The report from the church here
is favorable one, the congregation rails
ing the handsome sum of 81 400 during
the ten months they had minister. One
hundred and twenty-six dollars were con-
tributed for foreign missions.
La Grippe has again broken out and i;
spreading rapidly in this place and vicin
lity. In some cases whole families ar'
down with vt, many of the cases being o.
severe type. Take care Of yourself, re
main quietly in the house and avoid al
Exposure Is the safest plan. By far tb'
greater number of deaths have resulted
fiom a relapse brought on by exertion auC
exposure too soon after the patient wa
supposed to haye entirely recovered from
the first attack.
An exchange says; Don't expect an.
advertisement to bear fruit in one night
You can't eat enough in a week to las
you a year, and we don't believe you cal
advertise on that plan either. People,
who advertise only once in six month
forget that the people cannot remem5e
anything longer than about one month
If you can arouse curiosity by an adver
tisement it is a great point gained 90
Quitting advertising in dull times is lik
tearing out a dam because the water /
low.
