Henry R. Durkee, of Chicago, but
formerly of this city, is the guest OF
friends here.
The business of the Chicago Cash
store has increased SO rapidly that
they were compelled to put in new
shelving, and every nook and corner OF
the place is now used in the storage
and display of goods.
81 can't see how any family lives
without Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy" says ]. R..
Adams, a we'll known druggist, OF
Geneva Ala, in a letter inquiring the
price of dozen bottles, that he might
not only have it for use in his own
1 family, but supply it to his neighbors.
The reason some people get along
without it, is because they do not know
its value, and what vast amount OF
suffering it will save. Wherever it be-
comes known and used, it is recognized
as necessity, for it is the only remedy
that can always be depended upon for
bowel complaints, both for children and
for adults. For sale by Starkweather
& Co.'s drug store.
The prairie fire which did so much
damage in the town of Somers, to the
northwest of the city the past two or
three days, was at last conquered. 1t
was finally got out Thursday night.
The farmers today tell of some very
narrow escapes for some of their prop
erty. Thomas Irving says that the
fire got within ten feet of $500 worth
of hay he had stacked, before it was
got out. He had several hundred tons
in the path of the flames, which he
had to load onto wagons and remove
in order to save it. The damage done
will mount up to a considerable in some
instances. All sorts of means were re-
sorted to to get the fire out, from water
20 blowing.
Few men in this country are better
or more favorably known to the drug
and medicine trade than Mr.. E. j.
Schall, buyer in the proprietary med
icine department of the Meyer Bros
Drug Co., st Louis. He says; My
boy came home from school with his
hand badly lacerated and bleeding, and
suffering great pain. dressed the
wound and applied Chamberlain's pain
Balm, freely; all pain ceased, and in a
remarkably short time, it healed with
out leaving scar. For wounds, sprains,
swelling and rheumatism, know OF
no medicine or prescription equal to it.
I consider it a household necessity"

The law compelling bicycles to keep
off the sidewalks consigns them to the
wagon road and thus puts them in the
same class as other vehicles. They
are supposed to have as much right to
the highway as carriages and teams,
but nevertheless there are certain drlV-
ers who do not consider the wheel
man as entitled to any privileges.
Because he requires little room they
are not disposed to give him any.
When meeting a wagon he has right
to half the road, but since he cannot
hold his own against horse he has to
take what he can get 1t is perfectly
| legitimate for him to leave his wheel at
the side of the road, but since it is so
easily moved it is regarded as a nuts
ance and the cyclist is cursed for leav-
ing the "pesky thing" in the way.
On the other hand the bicycle is the
least troublesome of all the conveyan-
ces on the road. When wheelman
stops in a drive he puts his machine
out of the way of other vehicles.
When he meets his neighbor driving
through the country he uses about
two feet on the edge of the road while
his friend takes the balance. If there
is jam in the street the bicycler dis
mounts, takes his wheel out of the
way and allows the other fellows the
whole place. In spite of these facts,
however, there are certain persons who
are continually seeking opportunity to
abuse the wheel and the wheelman.
