Exposure.

Fevers are common at from one to ten
years of age; and are often brought on
by over-fatigue, exposure to the heat OF
the sun, cold drafts of air, improper
food, worms, etc. They are known by
the red face, swelling and throbbing Of
the veins of the neck, hot head, quick
pulse and rapid breathing. Such fevers
find their prompt cure in Humphreys
Specific No. One, which soon quiets the
fever, induces perspiration, and thus
cures the disease. An experience in the
use of these specifics in thousands Of
cases, extending over period OF forty
years. under almost every variety OF
subject and circumstances, has proved
them to be absolutely pure, and only
productive of good.

Fourteen Were Taken From the Court
House BY Election Officers Yesterday.
Yesterday was a busy day st the office
OF the Board OF Commissioners, where
Clerk Henry Pendleton and Clerk
Mitchell began the work Of getting out
the ballot boxes and ballots in the
hands OF the election officers. Fourteen
precincts were supplied during the day
and il is hoped to have all the remand
er distributed to-day. Election dis
tricts not supplied to-day will have the
boxes sent by special messenger Mon
day; but it is desirable not TO do this
because OF the expense, il It can be
avoided In every ballot box was
placed a large collection of stationery
i'm the shape Of ink, pens, tacks, pins,
Irvine, mucilage, blOtters, sealing wax.
two candlestickS and four candles, and
several other articles, as well as several
sorts of blanks, cards OF instructions,
tally sheets, poll books, etc, the whole
making up an interesting collection.
Mr.. Pendleton delivered short talks
about every ten minutes in the way OF
explanations aud instructions to cleo

FAILING INTO LINE.

Voters Will Resent the "InteIligencer's"
Methods at the Polls.
All day yesterday reports came In
thick aud fast of voters who were dis
guSted with the lnteHigencer'S campaign
OF mud-throwing, and who announced
their intention Of voting for Albert A.
Franzheim for Sheriff on Tuesday.
Democrats aud Republicans alike said
that such a personal onslaught had no
charms for them, aud that they wanted
nothing 20 do with a cause which de-
pended for success upon such methods.
Their American ideas OF fair play could
not stand the sort OF thing the people
Of Ohio county have been treated TO
through the IlteItgeucer, and many who
have been known as Republicans and
who will vote the Republican ticket for
the most part, said they would record
protest against such campaigning.
During the day it pleased the Repub-
lican managers to send out a tall bluff
from the South Side about having big
money TO bet on MofIat down that way,
and during the afternoon the horns
were hauled In when a Republican who,
like many another, can't stand the IN
telligeHcerS warfare on character, went
down with six hundred dollars in cold
cash to bet on Franzheim. That was a
settler.
The community will probably be
treated to another bucket of slush
through the columns of the Intelligenccr
this morning, but just what form the
thing will take is hard TO determine.
There was a general smile around town
Yesterday at the story that the Republi-
can candidate for Sheriff bad attempted
10 stop the hltellig0lcer'S veuomOus at
tacks. Such a story is about as i'm
probable as anything the IHtClligeHcer
has yet said, and that is saying a good

Tho Daughter Speaks.

A lady, apparently of great wealth,
had been for more than an hour impos.
ing upon the unceasing endeavors of a
patient saleswoman to fit with ready
made costume the daughter of the "shop-
per-" child of about eight years. The
hope Of adding one more sale to her
days list buoyed the dropping spirits of
the saleswoman and made her indefati-
gable in her efforts to please, but her
hope was In vain, for her customer final
ly said, "Well, 1 will not decide now.
but I will return this afternoon" where
upon her child quickly remarked, "Why,

Owls XIII Many Mice.

Mr.. Nicholson has issued an appeal to
landowners and country folk generally
not to kill off every bird of prey, but,
instead of mailing the skin of an owl or
. hawk on barn door because it bears
an evil name in the poultry yard, and is
in the black books of the gamekeeper
to preserve it, within limits, at least as
sedulously as the partridges and pheas-
ants in whose interests it is destroyed
The barn owl (Aluco fammeus) is unde-
niably the farmers friend and by no
means the sportsman's enemy. From
observations made during the nesting
time it has been calculated that it will
bring to its callow young mouse about
once every twelve or fifteen minutes,
and as many as twenty good sized rats,
perfectly fresh, have been counted in a
single nest. A nest containing five
owlets was placed under a hencoop,
and no less than twenty-four rats, large
and small, brought there by the parent
birds, were found lying outside the coop
the following morning. = Edinburgh

Destroyers of Grasshoppers.

There is small reptile out west
known as the fence lizard, which
catches and eats a great many grass
hoppers. The species is very common
in the infested regions. Skunks are
most active enemies of the insect and
have been known to ascend trees for the
purpose of catching them. For obvious
reasons it will hardly be practicable to
encourage these particular mammals,
but no such objections would apply to
toads, which are apt to swarm wherever
the choppers" are, gobbling the latter
greedily.
Many planters in California employ
docks Of turkeys for the purpose of free
ing their orchards and vineyards Of
grasshoppers. One turkey will destroy
an almost incredible number in a single
day Incidentally the birds are fattened
at the cheapest possible rate. They are
so fond Of such food that sometimes
they devour too many and die of indi-
