The Creamery Package Mfg. Co.
shipped a creamery outfit to Roth
drum, Idaho, today. Outfits have
been sent to Washington this spring.
This shows that Mankato can COM
pete with any house in the country in
the creamery line, as well as in other
lines, such as flour, fbre-ware,
cement, etc.
Three of the WinnebagO Indians
came on horseback from ST. Clair this
forenoon, with a certificate from the
Mcpherson town board, and received
the S25 wolf bounty money, mentioned
yesterday. The only one of the party
who can talk any English at all is
Yellow Bank, and he talks very
brokenly. These Indians are camping
near st. Clair and have not been in
the county more than a year.
Horace G. Latourelle, of Mime

that Erickson went to Wisconsin, and
is now informed that he has re-
turned to KasOta.
We learn that G. G. Quinn, who
last fall purchased an orange ranch at
Riverside, Cal, and located there, is
making money. The ranch cost him
$4,000, and he will clear $4,000 on it
this spring. The freeze in Florida
has had good effect on California,
causing better prices for fruit and a
consequent rise in the value of land.
We are under obligations to the

In the spring women need Paine's
celery compound.
The average American woman, says
a well known writer, wears herself
out twenty years before her time. She
begins the Wearing-Out process as a
child, staying up at night until the
whole family retires; and keeps it up
as a growing girl, staying awake until
ten or eleven o'clock when she should
be asleep by nine; and as women she
has so many things to do and to keep
up with that she positively hasn't a
minute to rest.
By and by her cheeks grow thin and
haggard: languor takes the place of
her old time high spirits; she has a
generally worn-out air; her nerves are
gnawed by pain, and sleeplessnesS
makes fearful inroads upon her
health.
Her physician tells her simply, that
her nervous system is exhausted, and
that help must come by feeding the
brain and the entire nervous tract,
richly, rapidly and completely. 1t is
the experience of the most careful
medical men in the country that
nothing proves so uniformly success
ful as Palne'S celery compound IN cases
of brain, weariness nervous inability;
failure of vital force, dyspepsia, sleep
lessness, and for restoring health and
vigor to the brain and body when eX-
hausted by over-work or dissipation.
Every such weary, nervous, thin
blooded person should take Paine's
celery compound. 1t makes such peo-
pie well.
Paine's celery compound improves
the general health by making new,
ruddy blood and refreshing the
nerves.
1t teammates the languid body, and
vitalizes the important organs so that
they work in harmony with each
other.
The accomplished editor of the
Oakland, Ill. Ledger, "a portrait of whose

wife is given above, says in his own
paper, editOrially:
'Our leading druggist, DR.. W. G.
Gregory, informs us that his sales of
Paine's celery compound have been
wOnderful; in fact, he states that he
has in six months sold more celery
compound than all other medicines
combined. There has been constant
demand for it.
zone of the noticeable cures that
this medicine has made is the case of
Mr.. Phil Cinard, who last spring was
Republican candidate for county
treasurer Mr. Clinard's nerves were
all unstrung; he had no appetite and
was all rundown. He commenced
using Paine's celery compound, and
today there is not a more well and
vigorous citizen in this whole COM
munity than Mr.. Clinard. Another
case that comes closer is that of the
wife of the editor of the Ledger. Every
one in Oakland knows that Mrs. Year
gin was confined to her bed for three
whole months with neuralgia. At
times her pains were awful, so much
so that her hands would clinch and it
| took the united strength of two per-
sons tO straighten out her tingeNS DR..
Garvey, the family physician treated
her for months, but all he could do
was to alleviate the pains, not effect
ing a cure. Along last winter she
commenced using Paine's celery COM
pound.
Q"She commenced to gain in flesh at
once. Her pain all went away; her
vitality increased weekly, and today
there is not more healthier woman
in town than she. Her neighbors all
marvel at her recovery, and ask her
the cause, and she has no hesitancy in
saying that it is all due to Paine's
celery compound. This is given voun-
tarily in the hopes that others who
are afflicted may be profited by using
this great medicine, which today is
without peer in the land"

DEATH OF MRS. PARRETT.

Mrs. Geo. N. Parrett, of Rapidan,
died at her home Tuesday evening of
pneumonia, after an illness of but two
weeks. She was daughter of the late
Col. b. f. Smith, and had been resi-
dent OF the county for the past thirty
eight years. A husband and three
daughters survive her, and mourn the
loss of loving wife and mother. Her
age was fifty-six. She was highly re-
spected by all who knew her, and her
death will cause sorrow among her
large acquaintance. The funeral will
occur from the farm at half-past ten
o'clock tomorrow, and the remains
will be inferred in Glenwood cemetery,
in this city.
