Marion.

Noah Stivcrson has purchased q
part of Sam st. Clairs farm consist
Ing of near 40 acres, and has rented
the balance of the farm for yrs.
longer. Noah IL a first class tenant
and good neighbor and we would
advise Sam to keep him as long as
he needs a ten1nt. Horace
Blackston intends moving from the
Dan Wright farm to the Isaac
Hunsaker farm today. .... Mr..
Chas. Hornmiller expects to move
out about the first Of April, this
farm formerly owned by Mr.. A. s..
Beery contains 100 acres and is in
good condition, but Horace will
find enough to do to keep him busy.
We welcome Mr.. Blackston hack
into our vicinity again, but we fear
he will not stay long from the fact
that there is not enough grubbing
for him to do on this farm. Miss
Mary Scholl who has been teach
ing school Mt Jobs Ohio returned
home on the 9th and reports very
prosperous term of school. This is
the result of nearly all our teachers
who go away to other parts of the
county, or other counties to teach,
OF this we feel proud and trust
they all will make an effort 10 re-
tain and increase their recommen-
dations.. -. Miss Jen ME Palmer
we are told has accepted q spring
term of school in Perry Go. and is
there teaching at present. Abe
Hickman was to Logan last Thurs.
day and said he had to take the
bottom road when he got to the
pike. This we believe to be the
most commolious plan, from the
fact that if you take the top road,
you are likely to continually be
annoyed by strangers and others
who are on the bottom road asking
If they are on the right road to I.o-
gan or wherever they are going.
..... Mr.. Jacob Ashbaughs wife
died on the 9th and was buried
at Harmony U. B. Church on the
9Th. This is great loss to Mr..
Ashbaug for man can experience
no greater loss in this life than the
of the family. He has our
sympathy. I'VE have been in
formed that Noah Ruff has sold q
bunch of timber to Il man by the
name of Sheets for which he is to
receive in the neighborhood of
$3.50 .... Wonlcr if our old con-
lldential friend j. S. Beery who
lives in Missouri reads these meag-
er items from Marion? How about
it Josh ?. .....S Sam st. Clair of Bear
Run went to Logan last Thursday
before the roals got bad.

Human Ingenuity.

Certainly, for the mechanic, human
ingenuity has never produced better
liniment than Salvation (which now
stands unexcelled for curing his sprains
and bruises caused by fall; or cuts
and wounds the result of an accident
with his tool or saw. Salvation Oil al
ways kills pain. ''Recently, fell
about twenty feet and was very MUCH
bruised on my leg and side, but after
bathing them with Salvation Oil the
bruises soon disappeared. I think Sal
vation Oil is just the thing for sores
and bruises" A. Jacob Rice, $40
Church St., Easton, Pa. Salvation Oil
may be bought anywhere for 25 cents.
Substitutes offered by dealers may cost
less; hence, do less. Salvation Oil,
however, never disappoints the user.

don, Ohio, and L. G. Sparks Of Pom
eroy, Ohio, are visiting their broth
er, Prof. A. NJ. Sparks, of the
! Heights and the occasion is, it be
made memorable by having an in
formal reunion of the family. The
members have never been together
since they were children, about
thirty years, and no doubt it will
prove to be one of the bright spots
in their lives and many will be the
"reminiscences recalled of their
childhood days when they gather
ed around father and mothers
knee and begged for just one more
story before prayers and the good
night kiss. The following are IT,"
members of the family present who
will gather around the festive
board on this joyful occasion:

Applies at Home.

Permit us to remind our citizens
of the law passed by the last Ohio
legislature as TO throwing tacks,
glass, etc, upon the streets in front
of their places Of business. We
have now about arrived at the
time of year when the bicycle
makes its debut. There will be an
unusually large number of wheels
in our city the coming season.
This law will be inforced, through
Difference to the demands of this
class of our citizens. 1t is no longer
the boy alone who uses the wheel.
The professional and business men
have alike adopted the wheel. 1t
is the veal of this class Of taXpay-
ers that law must recognize and
executive power protect. Its
rights have been so recognized by
the Ohio legislature. They will
now see to i; that the executives
infoice it. SO we would urge our
merchants especially TO guard
against casting any tacks, glass
and such destructive material in
front of their places of business.
The law not only Furnishes willful
violations but negligent ones, as
well. 1t behooves all to guard well
their obse rvance of this wise piece

condition. 1t was undoubtedly bad
case of la grippe and recognizing it as
dangerous he took immediate steps to
bring about a speedy cure. From the
Remedy and the many good recon-
mendations included therein, we con-
cluded to make a first trial of the
medicine To say that it was salts
factury in its results, is putting it
very mildly, indeed. 1t acted like
magic and the result was speedy and
