Reasons Why the Dairy Swing
Churn is Superior to Others.

!. THE QUANTITY OF BUTTFR.-All
portions of the cream meet an equal amount
Of concussion, and falling the distance it
does, receives u harder stroke than can lie
given il with dasher. Hence all the
.lobulcs will he broken at once. and not
leave u portion of them in the buttermilk
uubroken. Each vibration of the churn
submer.es large quantities of fresh air in
aud under the milk. which congeals each
globu!e broken, so it will gather. Hence it
will produce from one To- six ounces more
butter to the gallon of milk.
>. THE QUALITY OF BUTTER.
being no paddles, floats or other contrivance

its natural grain. Tn the contrary, the
grain. color and flavor are greatly improved
by its superior ventilation. and the large
quantity of air submerged in the cream,
together with its unsurpassed way 81 gather

makes the finest granulated butter in the
market.
3. CLEANLINESS IN COSSTRUCTION.-it
has no iron journals that work in and
through the cream. thus saving AN ounce Of
hutter. which ALWAYS collects around the
journals of crank churns and becomes black
with the oil and wear of the iron Journals,
which will mix with and spoil the rest of the
butter.
4. CLEANLINESS IN OPERATING.-Th
operator does not stand over tina churn while
using it, thereby obviating all danger of
dropping hairs and dirt from the clothing
into the cream. as the most repulsve thing
in the world is any foreign substance in
butter.

The County Paper.

No man is too poor to take his coun-

il is false economy to get along without

The city papers do not take the place
of county paper, although some people
seem to think they do. The city pa
pers are all right in their way, but
they don't give you what you are most
interested in-your county news.
You cannot learn from them when

Ats A. NJ, Friday, September %,
1894, Mrs James w. Redden exchanged
mortality for life eternal. The last two
years of her life she was greatly afflicted,
but by the grace of God she was
enabled to suffer his will as heroically
as before she had done it. She was
gentle, thoughtful, kind, patient and
loving; she never tired OF enun:erating
her blessings. and was grateful for
every act of kindness shown. Her life
was one of rare Christian beauty and
faithfulness. A visit to her sick room
was always benediction. She trusted
in the everlasting arms that had carried
her all the journey through, even to
her old age. and we belive it can be
truly said Of her rs of EnOch, '.She
walked with God, and is not, for God
has taken her" The church militant
mourns the loss of such, but the church
triumphant rejoices over their acquisi-
ton. She leaves husband and nine
children. The funeral services were
held at the VI. +. Church, conducted
by her pastor, Rev. \. 5. Beanie, ON
Sunday afternoon. \ large number of
friends assembled TO pay their last
tribute of respect. .'The memory of
the just is blessed. \ FRIEND.

AN AWFUL DISCOVERY.
\ Bright Young Lady Inhales
ChlOrOfOrm While Asleep.

Miss Duhamel, a bright young lady
of near Galena, met with a singular
death last Tuesday night, the particulars
of which are indeed sad. The young
lady had suffered during the day with
toothache and finding no relief from the
various remedies suggested, upon re-
firing took small dose of chloroform.
After taking the dose she placed the
cork and put the bottle under the pillow
within easy reach should it be needed
during the night. But the cork had
not been tightly placed in the bottle,
and during the night the medicine oozed
out, stealthily taking away the life of
the innocent sleeper. As she did not
respond to the calls of her parent the
next morning. her room was entered
and the lifeless body of the young lady
found 1t was an awful discovery for
the fond parent and all efforts to resus-
citate the body were in vain. She was
about Is years of age and the idol of
the home.
