My! but wasn't there a good sized
growl sent up from the 200 people who
were in attendance at K.of z. reception
last Tuesday night when they started
for home and found no street lights to
illumine the intense darknessp
Fresh fish, recently snatched from
the muddy Maumee, are for sale on the
market. Pickerel sell at 8 cents per
pound. Where is Col. Freeman John
son? This is the first time the fish sea-
son opened up and found the Colonel
absent.
The great majority of so-called
cough cures do little more than impair
the digestive functions and create bile.
Ayers Cherry Pectoral, on the con-
trary, while it cures the cough, does
not interfere with the functions of
either stomach or liver.
The schools of this place adjourned
on Monday last in honor of the birth
day of George Washington. The flag
floated from the top of the building and
the scholars enjoyed the holiday and
were thankful that George Washington
was of such greatness that his birthday
was made national holiday.
The parties from Maumee who
were here Investigating the prospects
of connecting Perrysburg with an
electric light plant seemed to feel
satisfied that Il sufficient number of
lights could be put in to make the in
vestment paying one, and there is
some hope that Perrysburg may yet
be supplied with light that can be seen
on dark night.
The Maumee river steamboat COM
pany will see to it that the Northwest
ern Gas Co. remove the gravel bank
which was thrown up when dredging
for the purpose of laying the pipe line
across the river last fall. The embank-
ment thrown up will interfere with
navigation and has been, no doubt, the
means of keeping the ice from floating
away more readily this season.
The Wood county newspapers are
earnestly advocating the construction
of graveled or macadamized roads. 1t
has always been a mystery to us why
so fine an agricultural county as Wood,
with a tax duplicate of over eighteen
millions of dollars, should have the
worst roads of airy county in North
western Ohio. Putnam county, with
a tax duplicate OF only one-half that OF
Wood county, has nearly two hundred
miles OF graveled or macadamized
roads, and would not do without them
| for double what they cost. There is
no reason why Wood county should be
behind it's nelghbors in the matter Of
public improvements, and we are
pleased to see that its newspapers are
at work trying to rub the moss off the
backs of its sleeply Inhabitants
Putnam Co. Sentinel.
Those parties using postal boxe.
will please pay their box rent promptly

The Sheridon Wheel factory have
been making several large shipments
OF wheels during the past week and il
nearly every mail they are receiving
orders from all parts of the country
Even Toledo merchants, with theil
several wheel factories that have beer
doing business for years. are sending tC
the Sheridons for wheels. There
surely must be something in the Sheri
don wheel or it could not be sold in the
homo of the Gendron and Harris
wheels. The new sign being painted
across the entire front of the factory
by Will Cranker is very attractive an(
shows up very conspicuously. Mr.
Greene, the president of the company
has been making tour of several c
the larger eastern cities and his reports
arc favorable for Il good seasons busi
ness. Mr.. Greene is acknowledged ont
of the shrewdest of business men and
if there is any business in the countr!
he'll get it.
