N. r. Aliens sons are busy with a
large extension to their already large
tannery. About half the space be-
tween the old vat room and the
bridge is being dug up for the addition
of fifty more watts. Ny, how that com
pany grows!
What other lead are Cowie and
Alexander working on now? They
have not departed from our coasts yet,
but seem to be as busy as ever. They
are not given to talking, but upon be-
ing questioned merely state in a sug-
gestive way: Remember that Jacob
son is not dead; neither are We."
- When you go into crowd or
where a number of men are talking"
remarked a good friend to the reporter
and don't hear those men say word
against their neighbors or fellow bust
ness men, you may conclude that they
are all pretty good fellows. Of course,
it may be that the opportunity don't
come right, but did you ever think
how much easier it seems for some peo-
pie to say unkind words than it is to
speak good words? Whenever you
find man who says nothing unkind Of
any one, you can tie to that man every
time.
=" People don't seem to care what

count in peaches, if it does in other
things. Now I can sell fifty baskets Of
twenty-five centers easier than | can
half that number at thirty cents, altho'
much better peaches. But on other
goods my customers only want good
goods. Look at that canned corn.
Three cans for quarter. Pretty good,
too. But I can't sell it. The same
people that buy cheap peaches won't

d. Conway Lloyd has taken a
pledge that he will drink no more. The
pledge was made this morning and was
evidently meant. The reason for it
came from the fact that he got into
some trouble Thursday night which
probably would not have occurred had
he been in his sober senses. The con-
sequences of the act might have been
very serious, but by agreement with one
of the aggrieved parties the matter has
been quietly settled. This paper has
been requested not to give the details.
Considerable fun is being had a
the expense of a Kenosha citizen who
built coal box supplied with cover,
and shute at the bottom from which
to withdraw coal as needed. The cover
is supplied with paddock, while the
shute is not, and still the owner rests
in a sense Of perfect security from the
depredations of the willy coal thief.
This equals tho exploit Of the individual
who sawed a large and small hole in
his barn door for the accommodation of

Cancer
OF the Breast.

Mr.. A. h. Crausby is one of the best
known and most highly respected citi-
gems of Memphis, and resides at 15a
Kerr street in that city.
Some years ago his wife noticed a
small lump in her breast. She though hit
nothing of it, but it increased in size
rapidly, and soon broke through the
skin and commenced to discharge.
She was at once put under treatment
of the best physicians, but they 7ery
soon found that they could do her no
good, and simply prescribed antiseptics
to keep the place clean. Both her
grandmother and aunt, by the way,
had died with cancer, and when APP
prised of this fact the doctors said that
they would not attempt to save her;
that she was incurab1e. Although the
cancer had by this time become deep
seated and her health very low, one of
the most noted specialists of New York
then treated her. After treating her
awhile, this doctor admitted that the

Gone day happened to read an adj
vertisement of S. S. S., recommending
that remedy for cancer, and in view of
the failure of the most eminent pl1ysi-
clans in the country, confess 1 had
little faith left in any human agency.
However, purchased a bottle of S.S.S.,
and to my delight it seemed to benefit
her. After she had taken a couple of
bottles the cancer began 10 heal, and
ties more cured her entirely. You can
probably better understand how re-
markabIe this cure was when explain
that the cancer had eaten two holes in
the breast two inches deep. These
healed up entirely, and although ten
years have elapsed, not sign of the
disease has ever returned, and we are
assured of the permanence of the cure,
which we at first doubted.
Gas my wife inherited the cancer, 1
certainly regard S. S. S. as the most
wonderful remedy in the world, and it
is truly a Godsend to those afflicted
with this terrible disease. You may
be sure that shall always be grateful
to that remedy, for without it my home
would now be deso1ate and my chill

S. S. S. Cancer is becoming alarm

The stockholders of the Shenan-

their recent annual meeting, passed
the following resolution:
Z hat the stockholders here assem-
bled, voicing as we are assured, the
sentiment of each and every member
of the society, renew as we have so
often had occasion to do, our sincere
thanks to Mr.. G. B. Rouss for his
continued liberality in aid of our As
sociation. ''May he live long and
prospect" is our heartful wish.
President Mccain in his report of
the last fair said:
Our warm friend and patron Mr..
Chas. B. Rouss not only honored us
with his welcome annual visit. but
made his usual munifcent donation
TO the Society's funds; without which
assistance during the past ten years
candor compels me to say that we
would not have been able to attain
our present enviable condition. No
mark of honor and respect which this
Society can extend TO Mr.. Rouss can
possibly discharge the lasting obi
cations which we owe him.

The principal feature of President
Cleveland's message is recommen-
dation that the present drain upon
the national finances be remedied by
the retirement of the greenbacks and
the outstanding treasury notes issued
in payment of silver purchases under
the act of 1890, the Sherman act.
Foreign relations are treated in an
able manner, aud departmental mat
tiers are left to be noted by the houses
in the form of the annual reports of
the cabinet officers. The message
closes with an appeal to Congress to
promptly and effectively consider
the critical financial situation, and
the President declares that he is pre-
pared to cooperate with the peoples
Representatives in perfecting any
other measure than that which he
suggests, should such an alternative
be preferred.

large and each one'sImatcrial gain be great. it
would not he surprising il it suddenly dawns
upon many that good health has been greatly
Impoverished by the low condition of the
