Missed the Bird but Bagged the Coon

While party of young men were gun
ming on Monday last covey of cartridges
were flushed near McKinsey's mill. The
party was slightly separated and in a
bunch of greenbriars when the birds arose.
Clarence Dare drew bead on one and
fired, but instead of bird falling a yell
went up. A hasty search as to the cause
showed that James Davis, colored, had
received part of the load in the back and
legs. For the next few minutes he was
undecided whether to die or fight, but
after being convinced that it was purely
accidental and that he was not seriously
hurt Davis relented and will now apply
for pension.

Merit in medicine means the power to
cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla possesses actual
and unequalled curative power and there
fore it has true merit. When you buy
Hoods Sarsaparilla, and take it according
to directions, to purify your blood, or
cure any of the many blood diseases, you
are morally certain to receive benefit.
The power to cure is there. You are not
trying an experiment. 1t will make your
blood pure, rich and nourishing, and thus
drive out the germs of disease, strengthen
the nerves and build up the whole system.

catarrh Means Danger,

Because if unchecked it may lead direct
1y consumption. Catarrh is caused by
impure blood. This fact is fully estab-
lished. Therefore, it is useless to try to
cure catarrh by outward applications or
inhalants. The tue way to cure catarrh
is to purify the blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla
the great blood purifier, cures catarrh by
its power to drive out all impurities from
the blood. Thousands of people testify
that they have been perfectly and per-
manently cured of catarrh by Hoods
Sarsaparilla.

Coal is $1.00 ton higher than
last year. Not because it cost more
to mine and transport, not because
there is a general rise in prices,
but because an irresponsible
monopoly has been given the
privilege by special law to rob the
public, Many of these coal
''barons" are foreigners. A short
time ago J. P. Morgan, Rothsohilds'
principle agent in this country,
bought the Reading railroad and
all its belongings for almost song,
which includes the ownership or
control of most of the anthracite
coal fields of Pennsylvania.
This coal monopoly will collect
from the people of Cecil county
alone dollar a ton on all they use
this winter which will foot up
many thousands of dollars, Pause
a moment and think. Every family
that burns 5 tons of coal this winter
will pay tax to this coal trust OF
$5. 90. w. j. Bryan came out
boldly and without disguise and
declared he would do all that lies
in the power of President of the
United States, if elected, to break
up these robbing trusts and
thousands of people who will "fork
over'' 50 to $40 to the coal harons
this winter voted against him and
for the trust candidate who stands
for the continuation of these monopo-
lies. How can such absurdities be
accounted for?

About BOrax Soap.

Borax costs more than
soap. There is no induce
ment, therefore, for soap
makers to use it for profit.
Borax softcns the wash
water, and leaves the hands
soft and smooth.
Consequently it is a good
thing in soap.

Gent quantities to be de.
