Last Notice to subscribrs.

On July Sth we sent to our pat
rons bills for subscriptions. So far
we have received but a very small
per certage Of the amount repre-
sented by the statements. Patience
has ceased to be virtue with us
and we insist that the accounts be
settled at once. If a settlement or
some satisfactory arrangement is
not made of the accounts by Sept.
18th we will be compelled to resort
to legal methods to collect what is
due us. This is a very expensive
way of making collections and
in many cases the costs will amount
to more than the claim is worth,
both of which our friends will be
compelled to pay in the end.

moved to Troy. Mrs. Spiker died
August 3rd, 1896, of dropsy and
heart disease, having been confined

fering which she PATIENTLY endured
unto the end.
In Maryland she belonged to the
English Lutheran church, but when
she removed to Plqua, she united
with the First Presbyterian church
She was the stay and comfort of hel

Crops.

Flowing for fall seeding is nearly
finished. Corn is caring, and gives
promise Of being the best crop in
years, but more rain is needed, par
ticularly by the late planted, to as
sure the best results; the growth of
fodder is large. Much of the wheat
that has been thrasbed is below the
average in quality, owing to expo
sure to rains and late gathering.
Grass and late potatoes show quite
plainly the need of more rain.
Vegetables are very plentiful

The attention of the Republicans
of Garrett county is directed to
the call published in this issue for
the primaries to select delegates to
attend the convention at Oakland.
Since 1878 there haYe been nine
epidemics of dysentary in different
parts Of the country in which
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was used with
perfect success. Dysentery, when
epidemic, is almost as severe and
dangerous as Asiatic cholera.
Heretofore the best efforts OF The
most skilled physicians have failed
to check its rayages, This remedy,
however has cured the most maig-
nant cases, both of children and
adults, and under the most trying
conditions, which proves it to be
the best medicine in the world for
bowel complaints. For sale by
