Housekoepers Want the Best Food.

1OuSehcefSfo tshhe sAO 1SCSs OcAs What Scientists say:
 Prof. Arnold of the University of New York: 1T consider that each and every ingredient of oleomargarine but ter or butterine is perfectly pure and wholesome, that the oleomargarine butter differs in no essential manner from the butter made from cream. It is great discovery, blessing for the poor, in every way a perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article.
 Silver Churn Butterine is prepared especially for fine table use. Every de- tail of it's manufacture is perfect. Re- cent chemical experiments show that in nutritive and digestive properties Silver Churn Butterine is fully equal to the best creamery butter; while in keeping quality Silver Churn Butterine is much superior.

Shooting ar Mardis.

Another shooting scrape took place
at Mardis yesterday afternoon. From
what the INDEPENDENT can learn,
Sam Jones and J. H. Call, between
whom there is bal blood, met at the
postofhce at Charleston yesterday
afternoon and after the exchange of Il
few words, Call drew his pistol and
commenced shooting at Jones. The
first two shots went through Jones'
left elbow, missing the bones and
making a flesh wonnd. Jones crap
pied with Call and both fell to the
floor. While struggling, the revolver
was discharged several times one of
the bullets striking Jones' left ley
above the knees, ranging downward
and coming out just at the right of
the knee. Another went through his
clothing, grazing his abdomen and
another grazed the upper part of his
right shoulder.
Jones was brought to the &C unity
hospital to-day on No. 4 by Tom
Short who witnessed the shooting.
Short wore out a complaint against
Call this afternoon and Sheriff Ma
teer left - once to arrest him.

An Indian Shot.

a drunken Indian shot an Indian at
Gardnervillo Sunday afternoon,
wounding HIM severely i'll the heel
and leg. The shooting took place in
the Chinese wash.house, where the
victim was sitting on Il chair with his
legs crossed and his feet resting on a
table. The drunken Indian stepped
into the back door of the China house
and fired one shot. The bullet pas
sed through the left heel of the vic
tim and ploughed along the right leg,
lodging, it is supposed, i'll the right
thigh. The bullet has not been
found. The wounded man was
brought to Genoa and is being looked
after by county physician Young
He will recover. The weapon used
was a Winchester rife. 1t seems that
whisky and domestic troubles caused
the shooting, as it is stated that the
wounded man was trying TO win the
affections of the other mans mahala
The shooter disappeared Immediately
after firing the shot and the officers
have not been able to find him.-Ge.

n Timely Reminder.

Each season forces upon our con-
sideration it's own peculiar perils to
health. The advent of Fall finds many
reduced in strength and vigor, poor
ly prepared to continue the business
Of life. The stomach and bowels, the
great highway Of animal economy, is
especially liable to disorder in the
Fall. The nervous system has also
suffered i'll the struggle. Typhoid
fever and malaria in particular find in
the Fall that combination Of earth,
air and water that mark this season
as especially dangerous. The falling
leaves, the decaying vegetables con-
tribute their share of contamination.
Hoods S~arsaparilla furnishes a most
valuable safeguard at these important
points, and should be used in the
Fall before serious sickness has laid
you low.
