500 Reward. 800.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, re-
quires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-
nally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation OF
the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
tiun and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have SO much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars tor any
case that it fails to cure. Send for
list of testimonials. Address.

The Canning Factory.

Work will commence on the new
canning factory on Monday. Messrs.
Rothwell & Lovett assure us that af-
ter they get fairly started the work
will be pushed forward with all pos
sible dispatch. They also say that
the lot-holders have not taken up all
the acreage for corn and tomatoes.
They want 400 acres and are about
100 acres short. They will be pleased
to have outsiders come in and con-
tract for the baance. Those plant
ing this year will have the preference
in after years.

Hints to City Gardners.

Potatoes and onions should not BE
put in the same bed,
Asparagus should be sown as soon
as the ground is in proper condition
Cucumbers should be planted after
a rain as they are mostly water
Their other ingredient is cholera.
Beans and corn have great affinity
for each other, therefore, they shonid
be planted together.
Lima beans should be planted in the
light ofthe moon, eyes down. Other
wise there is danger of the vines
growing the wrong way.
Peas should not be stuck until they
are up. There is danger of their
sides splitting if stuck before being
planted.
Lettuce and radishes must not be
planted at the same time. as one
grows in the ground and one out of
it.
1t is not best to keep horse radish
about the stable. This may seem
strange but nevertheless it is true.
Artichokes are very dangerous and
should be eaten with great care.
Tomatoes do not grow in cans but
on vines. They are green until they
become red.
Potato bugs are fond of Paris green.
They eat it with avidity and then
cease to exist.
English sparrows make good pot
pies. Italians soak wheat in rye
whisky and when drunk capture them
with ease.
Greens are relished by many people.
Just now garlic is the only green thing
visible unless it is city man trying
to teach his wife what he knows
about gardening or an EDITORS lamen-
table attempt to impart the same
to his readers.
P. S.-Grant Pitzer is not one of the
green kind. He wisely rented his
garden to neighbor on 1.-The halves"
If he realizes on the venture it will be
just double what he could have gotten
in any other way. AT.

For the Armenians.

The Armenian sufferers have been
the source OF another work of charity,
which caused some of our citizens to
organize society to obtain money for
them. A committee was appointed
and work will be commenced at once
to raise funds for this worthy cause,
one to which almost every city and
town in the Union has contributed.
Mrs. w. N. Inch was elected chair
man; Mrs. J. c. Frazer, secretary and
treasurer, and Mrs. Z. Boyd Faux
ner, Mrs. VIM. Stewart, Mrs. N. d.
Baker, Mrs. John Pitzer, Mrs. c. J.
Faulkner, Mrs. j. B. Snodgrass, and
Misses Name Cunningham and Belle
Stewart form the balance of the COM
mittee. An entertainment, assisted
by the Italian orchestra that visited
this city few weeks ago, and rem
dered such delightful music, will be
given in the near future. The orches-
ira alone will draw a large audience.

Don't think because you are sick
and nothing seems to give you relief
that you can't be cured.
There must be cure for you some
where. Ifyour doctor can't cure you,
perhaps he has mistaken the cause.
Anybody is liable to make mistake
sometimes.
One in three Of us suffer from indi-
gestion, and one out of three dyspep-
tics doesn't know it. That is, he
may know he is sick, but he blames
it to something else.
Indigestion is the cause of half of
our dangerous diseases.
Shaker Digestive Cordial made
from tonic medicinal roots and herbs,
is the most natural cure for indiees-
ton. 1t relieves the symptoms and
cures the disease gently, naturally,
efficiently, giving fresh life, strength
and health to sick dyspeptics.

When the Cows Come Home

SThe light on the mountain falls aslant,
4 The birds in the bush are still;
#The cricket chirps in the pasture plant
When the cows come over the hill
The swallows circle about the caves,
A pale start mounts the sky;
fThe squirrels rustic the golden sheaves
When the cows are passing by.
Over the valleys the shadows creep,
Dark ming the green of the pine;
Down in the garden the honeybees sleep,
Missing the breath of the kline.
The twinkle of bells is sweet to my eai,
But sweeter the words of song
That the singer is slowly bringing near
As she follows the COWS along.
She sings of a lover whose faith is fast
Wherever his footsteps roam;
And her cheeks grow red when We meet
at last,
AS the cows are nearing hoWe.

and an initiative and referendum

Tuesday evening "The Golden Giant
was presented, an entire different yer.
sion, by the way, from that presented
some months ago 10y the French Co.
Wednesday night, the powerful drama
"The Octoroon" was enacted with
Alice Roseland in the role OF "Zoe,"
and last night "Streets OF New York"
with that talented actress in the mart
of Aida Bloodgood. The play for to.
night is Bargain Husband" one OF
the company's best pieces. Tomorrow
afternoon the beautiful play of "Pearl
% Savoy" will be presented as a matt.
nee, at which children will be admit
ted to the reserved seats for 1Oc, the
price for adults remaining at l5c.
Saturday night. will be presented the
rollicking comedy, "Muldoon's Pic
nic," which affords ample scope for
many amusing specially acts.
While every member OF the COM
pany is deserving OF credit and re-
ceives warm plaudits from all parts of
the house, special mention should be
made of the general and specially
work of Chas. Horn. His topical
songs are always received with ap.
plause, and his character delinea tions
are excellent. Mercedes Gerrie is a
youthful actress who will make her
mark in the near future. Viola Rosa
is good in those parts requiring the
physique and address of the matron,
and La Petite Lille is just a charming
little bunch OF childish innocence and
precosity, which will bud into a
sweet flower before the prodigy is out
OF her teens.
