far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in

agents down their threats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

A perfect town that in which you
see farmer patronizing the home
merchants, the laborers spending
the money they earn with their owl
tradesmen, and all animated by a
spirit that will not purchase articles
abroad if they can be bought at
home. The spirit of reciprocity be-
tween the mechanic, tradesman and
laborer, farmer and manufacturer
results every time in making the
town a perfect one to do business in.

lnfant mortality is something
frightful. We can hardly realize
that Of all the children born in
civilized countries, twenty-five per
cent or nearly one quarter, die be-
fore they reach one year; thirty
seven percent, or more than one
third, before they are five, and one
half before they are fifteen.
We do not hesitate TO say that a
timely use Of Castor;a would save a
majority of these precious lives.
Neither do We hesitate to say that
many of these infantile deaths are
occasioned by the use OF narcotic
preparations. All the drops, tine
lures and syrups sold for children
complaints are composed principally
of oPium or morphine. They arc,
in considerable quantities, deadly
poisons. In any quantity, they
stupefy, retard circulation, and lead
to congestions, sickness, death,
Castoria operates exactly the re-
verse. 1t causes the blood to circu-
late properly, opens the pores OF
the skin and allays fevers. Then
the child sleeps. He gets we'll.

FRuIrs.-An observing farmer
told us Monday that he had no fears
of short fruit crop the coming
season: He says the late sleet will
cut no figure, except, possibly, as
an advantage, as it will keep the
fruit buds back and thus avoid the
danger of their being killed in the
spring. He says if sleet or freeze
should occur in February or March,
after a mild winter and the buds
were consequently well advanced,
why, then, their name would be
Dennis. As it is, he anticipates a
good fruit year.

fish be turned into the rivers and

eggs nearly all of them are devour-

old they are able to take care OF
themselves. This plan is to be used
hereafter in the propagation of shad,

An exchange says that the latest
swindle is carried by means of a
double fountain pen, one end OF
which is filed with good substantial
ink, the other with ink, that fades
away in day or two. The sharper
writes his agreement, contract, OF
whatever particular way he may
have chosen, with the ink that will
fade and his victim signs with the
other end of the pen in the ink that
will last. In few days he has a
slip of paper with nothing but a sig
nature over which he can write a
note and easily turn it into cash.
Look out for the fountain pen
swindler for he is dangerous.
