A Craze,

The building of electric roads in Ohio is
said to be developing the proportions of a
craze" It is craze, however, which has a
perfectly rational and substantial basis in
public necessity. Financially the move
ment, which is not confined to one State or
section, will be of service to the whole
country in providing ample employment for
both labor and capital,

WHO LIVED HERE LONGEST?
Old Pioneers Becoming a Scarcity as
the Years Go BY.

A NoRTHwEST reporter on election day
talked with an individual in the person of
Edward Gum who; SO far as We now know,
can lay claim to Being the Oldest pioneer in
Henry county living. That a man of his
age should live in one county life time is
an incident of no small importance and If
he be the Oldest pioneer it is grand dis
tinction.
It is the purpose of the NORTHWEST to fer
rit out the Oldest living resident in Henry
county and let our thousands of readers
know who he is.
With this issue we hold our columns upon
to all who wish to have printed the name,
date of birth and place of birth of any resi-
dent whose residence here be longer than
Mr.. Gunn's; also, that we may know who
our oldest pioneers are, we propose to pub
lish all those who have lived here sixty five
years.

THE ENSATIoNAL !.

One half the world, 1t is
said, creates surprise and di-
version for the other half.
And then the first half by re-
alizing its work, finds amuse-
ment, recreation and food for
thought. And thus we all are
entertained and find life rob-
bed of its gloomy aspect. Then,
taking this view of it, the "sen-
sational'' is not always to be
condemned. In many cases
a surprise is often termed SEN
sational, but this is not to be
commended, for many object
to the term.
We can cite to you many
surprises that partake of the
sensational phase and which
are good and Wholesome sur
prises, too, doing nobody any
harm, instead everybody a
large portion Of good, but
space forbids us mentioning
any other than those given by
Saur & Balsley year after year
in the shape of rare bargains.
At the end Of each season
this firm studies the wants OF
its immense patronage, and,
comparing them with the mar
ket, are enabled to keep con-
stantly surprising the adjacent
country with new assortments
at ever reduced prices.
As the winter season is near
idg its close, Saur & Balsley
have marked all goods down to
the lowest notch so that the
stock will not have to be car
ried over. 1t is by making
this kind of warfare on prices
that this firm has ever been
able to meet it's patronage
with a new stock as each sea-
son opens. From now until
spring you can get at almost
your own price anything in
plush goods, toilet sets, books
and stationery, albums, fancy
cards for teachers, knick-
knacks, ETC., etc. This class
OF goods MUST go, even if at a
sacrifice.
With the opening Of spring
when Improvements is in or
der everywhere, you will find
this house desirable headquar-
ters for the best paints and
oils, wallpaper and window
shades, a very little amount of
money sufficing to purchase
all you need to re-beautify the
home, Especially is attention
called to the John w. Masury
paints which have never been
known to fail in test. Wall
paper is in stock and consists Of
more lovely shades and designs
than ever.
In Drugs and Patent Medi-
cines there is no necessity to-
recommend Saur & Balsley as
they are recognized as leaders
and head and shoulders above
all competitors in this line.

b argains in Paint and Paper.

Now is the best time to paint and paper in
the whole year. Wall and ceiling papers and
decorations are all made during the fall and
winter, henceitis in tho spring time when
you get all the latest and incest styles and
best patterns. Saur & Balsley are in the
field with the incest and largest stock which
they have ever been able to show to their
customers. Those who contemplate having
any apering done this spring should not
fail to examine this stock. They will not
only be pl eased but surprised to see how
very cheap they can nicely paint and paper
a room. This house also has very large and
complete stock of all kinds of paints in all
shades and colors, oils, varnishes, brushes,
etc., which they guarantee to be as good as
any made and to be strictly reliable, having
been thorou ghly tested in every way 80 that
it is no longer an experiment but reliable
fact.
