"Owney" is the name of dog which
has attained more distinction in this
country than the average human citizen
can hope for. He made his debut into
the U. S. Mail Service at Albany, N. Y,
about seven years ago. The boys on
the trains took fancy to him. He
seemed to love travel and has been all
over the United States and Canada as a
protege of the postal employees. He ar.
rived here from Cincinnati, via the B. &
o. S. w., in charge of Baggage Master
Greene, Friday, and was soon ensconsed
in the postoffice. He has been written
up in the eastern magazines, and had a
constant throng of visitors during his
few hours in this city. "Owney" bears
a commissiog as railway postal clerk
He is a bright dog. though getting a
little aged and travel-worn.

Attention Farmers.

In the face of the demoralized con-
dition Of business for the past two years
the light running Plano Harvester and
Binder has had wonderful sale, not
only in the Uuited States but in nearly
every Nation in the world, and now
with the return of prosperity she takes
the lead and stands today without a
rival wherever introduced. Progress is
the history of the Plano. There are many
exclusive features that cannot be found
on any other competing machine. The
Fly Wheel, a marvel OF the age. The
friction clutch reel has only to be seen
to be admired. The Rocking Lever,
Twine Tension, and self-adjusting chain
tightener, &C., &c., puts her head and
shoulders above any machine in the
market. As proof of its popularity in
Highland county, we have already sold
and ordered one car load of machines to
the best farmers in the county, with q
f1attering prospect of selling two car
loads more this season. We also handle
the Jones Chain and Sprocket drive
mower, which is also an advance ma
chine. 1t is a matter of fact that is
inevitable that the Chain and Sprocket
gear is bound to drive the nett of cog
gearing out of every mower, and will take
their place. The chain drive principle
avoids friction, vibration, noise, and
above all, provides direct power and
with the double edged knife, with which
it is provided, makes it the lightest
draft and longest lived machine in
existence. Come and see our machines
before purchasing. First door south oi

Mary Fay Rose infant daughter of
John w. and Nora Rose was born at
Mowrystown o. March Goth, 1895 and
died May Sd, 1895. Whooping cough
with other complaints, was the cause of
her death.
The messenger came, the summons
was answered, and thus has gone from
our midst one whose life was dear and
growing dearer to all around her.
Weep not for our Mary deceased,
Our loss is her infinite gain.
A soul out Of prison released,
And freed from her bodily pain,
With songs let us follow her flight,
And mount with her spirit above
Escaped to the mansion OF light,
And lodged in the Eden Of Love.
