A SCREW pRoJECTILE.

The latest ideas in projectiles is the
screw, and it is claimed that it has both
greater accuracy of flight and penetrating
power than any other sort. The entire
body of the projectile is formed of two
twisted threads or blades; that is to say
it's shape is similar to what would be OBJ
tanned by the twisting of riband of
metal upon it's own axis, thereby produc-
ing a body without any cylindrical center
somewhat in the form of twisted
auger or twist drill.
- The projectile may be formed as n solid
shot, or as a central, longitudinal cavity
for the explos i've to enable it to be used
as shell. The periphery or edges of the
threads OF blades may be made smooth to
enable the projectile TO be thrown from
smooth-bore gup; or the projectile may
be provided with soft metal studs or pro-
jections Oh the threads or blades to fit
into tiie grooves of n rifle gun. The
threads are curved off at the fore end of
the projectile to facilitate the action of the
latter both in passing through the mir and
in penetration.

The Darlington, Wis, Journal says edi-
torially of popular patent medicine:
eve know from experience that Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy is all that is claimed for it, as on
two occasions it stopped excruciating
pains and possibly saved us from an I'M
timely grave. We would not rest easy
over night without it in the house" This
remedy undoubtedly saves more pain and
su ffering than any other medicine in the
world Every family should keep it in

sooner or later. For sale by the Chas.

There is gang of desperate toughs in
Dodson township, whose existence has
been a terror to many citizens. They
are said to be guilty of many crimes and
defy the authorities. Among these fel.
lows are the Foxes, two of whom, Ned
and Josh, came in town one evening
last week, began filling up on booze, and
then disappeared. Next morning they
came into town again with buggy load
of live chickens. They had scarcely
gotten into town until Deputy Sheriff
Williamson had them ndersurveillance.
He followed them to Smith & Harris
grocery, where they disposed of sixty
pounds of live chickens Undoubtedly
stolen). However, there was not suffic.
lent evidence to justify an arrest. But
officer Grant Troutwine took hand in
the affair and soon ran the Foxes in for
drunkenness. They were fined $5 and
costs each, and lodged in Jail. The
authorities have been hoping to hear
from those who lost the chickens. If
you have lost any fowls call on the
officers and see if they can't give you
some comfort.

II have sinned; have repented,
have trusted have loved, 1 rest,
shall rise I shall live ;"--summarizes
the mortal and immortal life of sinner,
saved and sainted.
The "earthly," may comprise the
scriptural allotment of three score years
and ten, or it may pass as the morning
cloud of early dew.
Frank Rowe, second son of James B.
Rowe and Annie link Rowe was born
in Hillsboro, Ohio, January 9th, 1878.
Thoughtful, manly, capable, good, he
was, therefore, beloved by kindred and
friends with whom he was associated in
business, social and churchly relations.
Nearly two years ago, a painful and
serious accident all but fatally wrecked
his somewhat frail constitution.
While scarcely eighteen years of age,
he has filled the responsible position OF
assistant local ticket agent, for the Bal
timore and Ohio Railway, with fidelity
and courtesy.
In his fathers home, where the Death
Angel, has come 80 sadly often, his
young spirit was chastened by the loss
of his mother, grandmother, aunt, and
brother. Since the death of this be-
loved brother in the early autumn of
last year, a gloom has rested over his
tender heart that time has failed to re-.
move. The longing for length of days
80 characteristic of youth has seemed
