Very Imnortant.


Every local Union should at once appoint
one of it's members to act as a local agent,
who shall Immediately place himself in COR
respondence with the transportation agent
of his State and thus keep thoroughly in
formed as to Convention arrangements
This local agent will in turn inform his
Union. Past experience has proved the
necessity of such plan. Therefore bear
these points in mind:
First, do not trouble the National
Transportation Agent with your questions !;
he has all he can do to look after the
State Agents and the Railroad and Boat
Companies.
Second, do not trouble your State Agent
with communications from half dozen
different people from the same Union,
thus putting him to the trouble of writing
six letters where he ought not to be asked
to write but one.
To recapitulate: The local Unioners will
gain the information which they need re-
garding ways of getting to Detroit, accom-
modations, etc. of the local Agent. The
local Agent will look to his State Agent
for his instructions, and the State Agents
will receive their instructions from the
National Agent. Very truly,
H. M. FOWLER,
Natl. Transportation Agent.

How to Reach Manchester.

Like Rome, "All roads lead to Blan-
chester" The beautiful little city where
the Ohio Universalist Convention will
situated on the Baltimore & Ohio South
western railroad, forty miles east of Gin
cinnati, at which city it makes connection
with all roads in western Ohio. All dele
gates and visitors from Washington AS
ISOLATION will reach Manchester by this
road. Delegates and others from Ra-
VIENNA, Kent Brimfield, Akron, etc., will
find the Cleveland, Akron & Columbus
Railroad the best route to Columbus,
where they will take the B. & o. This
road runs through trains to Cincinnati
and connects with the B. & o. S. w. a
few miles east of Manchester. Those
nearest the Cleveland, Cincinnati & Chi
cago, or "Big Four'' route will take that
road to Columbus, and thence on the
B. & o. to Blanchester Those going
from points west of Toledo will take
either the Columbus, Hooking Valley &
Toledo or the Ohio Central for Columbus.
Our people at Attica and Marguerite will
find the Columbus, Shawnee & Hooking
their best route. Those living at or near
Westville, Conover, Plattsville, Miami
City, Greenville, New Madison, Pales-
tine, Ell Dorado, New Paris, etc, will find
the P. G. G. & St. l.. to Columbus the
most direct route. Those going from
Eaton, Hamilton, Springboro, Ridgeville,
Mason, etc, will take the most conyen-
lent line to Cincinnati, and thence to
Manchester via the B. & o. S. w. Ry.
Our people at GAINESVILLE, McConnells-
vile, etc., will take the Cincinnati &
Muskingum Valley route to Washington
Court House, and there transfer to the
B. & o. All residing in Columbus, and
adjacent places, will take the B. & o.
road at Columbus. Our friends at Spring
field and London may find the Ohio
Southern road to Washington Court
House the most convenient route.
1t is our opinion, although we are not
positive, that those residing near the
B. & o. and B. & o. S. w. roads can
purchase through tickets and obtain GER
tifcates to Manchester from any station
on their roads. To be certain, however,
you had better make inquiry of local
agents.
In order to secure reduced rates on all
roads connecting at Columbus and Gin
cinnati, tickets and certificates must be
obtained at stations where through tickets
to all points are sold.

Reduced Fare to the Annual Meeti ng.
Arrangements have been made by
which delegates and others desiring to
attend the Annual meeting of this Asso-
citation, in Philadelphia, May 10Th and
Goth, may secure reduction of fare on
the Certificate Plan
Providing one hundred delegates Ter
others) shall have paid full fare one way,
and hold certificates from ticket agents
at starting points, to all persons going
who have paid rs cents and upwards for
the same. That is full fare going, and
one-third returning.
Things to be remembered: Certificates
are not kept at all stations. If, however,
the ticket agent at local station is not
supplied with certificates and through
tickets to place of meeting, he can in
form the delegate of the nearest import
ant station where they can be obtained.
In such case the delegate should pur-
chase local ticket to such station and
there take up his certificate and through
ticket to place of meeting
Going tickets, in connection with
which certificates are issued for return,
may be sold only within three days
Sundays excepted prior to, and during
the first three days of the meeting ex-
cept that when meetings are held at dis
tant points to which the authorized limit
is greater than three days, tickets may
be sold before the meeting in accordance
with the limits shown in regular tariffs.
Reductions expected on all roads con-
nected with the New England Central and
Southern systems. Full particulars Civ
en- in the church papers next week.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cuous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

VACATION DAYS.

In the Lake Regions of Wisconsin,
Northern Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa and
South Dakota, along the lines of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway, are
hundreds of charming localities preemi-
nently fitted for summer homes, nearly
all of which are located on or near lakes
which have not been fshed out. These
resorts range in variety from the ''full
dress for dinner'' to the flannel shirt cos
tune for every meal. Among the list are
names familiar to many of our readers as
the perfection of Northern summer re
sorts. Nearly all of the Wisconsin point
of interest are within a short distance
from Chicago or Milwaukee, and none of
them are so far away from the "busy
marts of civilization" that they cannot
be reached in a few hours of travel, by
frequent trains, over the finest road in
the Northwest-the Chicago, Milwaukee
& ST. Paul Railway. Send a two cent
stamp for a copy of ''Vacation DAYS"

sorts, and list of summer hotels and
boarding houses, and rates for board, to
