NEWS AND NOTES.

l
! Taking the Encampment degrees is
a step in the right direction The En-
| campment has appropriately been termed
the High School of Odd Fellowship, and,
like the descendant of Abraham, its
membership should be multiplied as the
stars of heaven and as the sand upon
! the seashOre.
How is this for arecord? Mrs. Sarah
| f. Helson of Manchester, N. H., has a
record for attendance at lodge meetings.
She has been Secretary of Social Rebekah
Lodge in that city for fifteen years and
has missed but four meetings in all that
time.
HAPPY AND HUNGRY.

sufferer with that most annoying disease
dyspepsia. After paying out hundreds
OF dollars, the only medicine found that
would do me any good was Sulphur Bit
tiers. Six bottles cured me. Now | can
eat well and am happy and hungry

lie is said to have sent greeting to the
Washington correspondents in these
terms: Boys, there will be no sentry
standing in front of the vice presidents
room henceforth. You will not be
forced to dive into your pockets and fish
out card to be transmitted to me on a
salyer. The door will stand wide open.
There are sofas inside for you to occupy.
You will walk right in, and if am not
there you will send for me. Wherever l
am the newspaper man is welcome"
GOOD LOOKS.
Good looks are more than skin deep,
depending upon healthy condition of
the vital organs. If the liver be mac
tive, yeu have bilious look and if your
kidneys be affected you have pinched
look, if your stomach be disordered you
have dyspeptic look. Electric Bitters
is the great Alternative and tonic, acts di-
rectly on these vital organs. Cures PIN
pies, blotches, boils, and gives a good
complexion. Sold at c. d. Gibson's
drug store, SOC bottle.
1t is no use blinking the fact that in
a very few years the United States will,
if she perseveres in lfer present course,
possess a navy which will be second to
none possessed by the European powers,
and may, quite possibly be superior to
the best of them. Even the lnman liners
that have just been placed under the
stars and stripes are being much more
completely armOred than our own con-
vertible merchant cruisers. These pro-
ceedings are warning to all the great
powers, but to none of them is the warn
ing more significant than to ourselves.
