takes less shortening than any other
-four and makes lighter whittier and

Intelligence has just reached tins
office of the death Of an old landmark
and familiar figure in this locality,
that of Joshua Knowlton. He died at
his home in Cross county, on New
Years day at the age of SO years. The
deceased was one Of the pioneers OF

viable record AS to his christian and
charitable walks in life. He was "a

The city hog, lat his own free will still
disports himself in his favored mud
bath, which CAN be found in various
parts of the town, and is lasting
monument to the great esteem in which
his sacred rooter is held by kind
