There is no medicine 30 often needed
iu every home and 30 admirably adapted
to the purposes for which IL IL intended,
as Chamberlain's Pain Balm. Hardly .
week passes but some member of the
family has need of it. A toothache or
headache may be cured by II. A touch
Of rheumatism or neuralgia quieted.
The severe pain Of burn or scald
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less time than when medicine
has to be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before Inflammation
sets in, which insures a cure in about
one. third of the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive i'm.
mediate treatment before the parts be.
come swollen, which can only be done
when Pain Balm is kept at hand. A
sore throat may be cured before it be-
comes serious. A troublesome corn may
be removed by applying it twice a day
for week or two. A lame back may be
cured and several days Of valuable time
saved or pain in the side or chest re.
lieved without paying doctor bill. Pro.
cured so cent bottle at once and you
will never regret it. For sale by w. R.

The Same Way In Highland.

The water in the East Fork is lower
than it has been any time within fifty
years. 1t may be crossed with dry feet
at almost any point, but many who
cross it are dry anyway, even in high
water times. Last week there was net
enough water in any one spot to admit
the filling of the reservoir. According
ly trenches were dug in which the
water was forced to collect, and the
Batavia two horse water works was
presently supplied. 1t is not known
what disposition the fish are making of
themselves. Possibly they have pooled
their interests somewhere, and may be
found in bunch in some shady nook.
1t would be great joke if some expert
angler would happen their way and
capture the entire two dozen. Possibly
rain may fall before this paragraph is
printed. We have discounted the
weather on three days sight many
times, and have most always been left
on it. We hope to be this time. It
should be stated that the wells of the
town afford enough water for drinking
though its tough match. and
might not work altogether but for the
humane Influences that control a nun.
Der of people, impelling them to sacri.
fec their share of the water to their
neighbors But We shall get along The
rain must fall sometime, like wool,
wheat and other things. The rain must
eventually come down and the creek
come up -Clerm0nt Courier

There are Democrats in this county,
indeed, the majority ofthem, who are op.
posed to Brice's financial policy. They
were counted out by Brice's methods,
and some of them are not timid or slo "
about expressing their sentiments. Such
men as Hon. Uric Sloane, who has more
brains than all the Brice gang, speak
right out in meeting. They don't pro.
pose to be chained like captives to the
chariot OF Brice, and paraded as trophies
OF his triumph. And they are not alone,
by any means in the State of Ohio. The
Morgan County Democrats, in con.
vention, the other day adopted the fol
lowing resolutions
"We are opposed to the return of Cal.
win g. Brice to the United States Senate
and instruct our candidate for the Lepis.
lature, if elected, to do all in his power
to prevent the election of either Foraker
or Brice, and to vote for some person
known to be in favor OF independent
silver coinage and an increased supply
of money.
We pledge our support to Charles
and Thomas Dolson, our
for State Senate in this the
Ninth Fourteenth district, and com.
mend them for their out.spoken advo.
cacy OF the free coinage OF silver and
the retirement OF SenatorCal,inS Brice."

In Jacksonville, Florida, one day
recently, they had the following bit Of
animal show which came to them
very Unexpectedly:
An alligator crawled out of the St..
Johns River at the foot of Main street
Friday afternoon and dashed up the
thoroughfare, lashing out with its tail
and snapping his ugly jaws at every.
thing that came in sight. It was 2:30
o'clock when Captain Lovelace, of the
steamer Manatee, which was lying at
the foot of Main street, saw a sixteen
foot saurian leisurly ascending one Of
the piles that support the dock. Capt.
Lovelace hurried for his Winchester,
and just as the gator was clearing the
dock gave it q shot that took effect
somewhere about the tail. The shot
seemed to enrage the scaly monster and
it Immediately began a mad fight up
Main, one of the principal business
streets of the city. Hundreds of people
were on the sidewalks, many ladies
among them, and the sight of the gator
created the greatest CONSERVATION. The
sourian seemed to be in savage mood
and dashed from one side of the street
to the other, lashing his tail and grind.
ing his jaws together. The ladies
screamed and rushed to cover, while
the men reached for their hip pockets
and began fusilade. The bullets rat.
tied like hail on the gators scaly sides,
