Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener-
ally needed in the Spring, when the Ian
guild exhausted feeling prevails, when
the liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of a tonic and Alternative is felt. A
prompt use of this medicine has often
averted long and perhaps fatal bilious
fevers. No medicine will act more sure
ly in counteracting and freeing the sys-
tenn from the malarial poison. Head
ache, indigestion, constipation, dizziness
yield to Electric Bitters. Only fifty cents
per bottle at NJ. Friedman's drug store. /

A prominent western newspaper
recommends flax tea as an excellent
remedy for whooping cough. 1t may be
good but it is not to be compared with
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This
preparation will allay the violent fits OF
coughing and make them less frequent
and less severe. 1t also ~liquefies the
tough mucus, making it easier to expec'
torate. Complete recovery is much
quicker, too, when this remedy is given.
There is no danger in giving it to small
children, as it is a pleasant syrup and
contains nothing injurious. For sale at
% aud 30 cents per bottle by NJ. Fried
man, Druggist.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, d. c., April 26, '97.

WASHINGTON, u. ", ApTll 70, %.
The chief pie distributor and his
assistants having gone to New York
to take paIt in dedicating the mon
ument 10 Gen. Grant, the pie hunt
ers who hadn't the money OF the
railroad passes to accompany them
are taking a rest. About half OF
Congress has also gone, as it was
previously agreed that the House
and Senate should meet to-day and
Thursday only to adjourn.
1t is becoming apparent that the
administration is preparing to let
down some of the civil service bars
to the office pastures. Mr.. McKin-
ley has been talking over the matter
with the, civil service commission,
and two of his cabinet-Gage and
Wilson-have publicly advocated
modifying the Civil Service Rules
as applied to their departments.
Some surprise was expressed by
Ohio men who were not inside the
game, so to speak, when Judge Day,
of that State, who IA supposed to
be preparing to 60 to Cuba, as a
special Commissioner, allowed him
self to be nominated First Asst.
Secretary of State. They knew that
Judge Day had resigned two Judge
ships, both paying more salary than
any Of the Asst. Secretaries get,
and that he wasn't exactly the
sort Of man who would a r to be
any body's assistant. Well, he is
TO be Sherman's assistant only in
name. So far as the matters he
will handle are concerned, he will
be Secretary of State, and if Mr..
Sherman, who is giving visible evil
dence that he feels his age, gets
tired OF the worry and resigns, the
portfolio will be given toJudge Day.
What Mr.. Sherman thinks Of this
programme would make interesting
reading, but unless he concludes to
add another volume to his "Recol-
lections" the public will have to be
content with guessing. Had Sher-
man not been in Hanna's way to
the Senate, he would never have
been made Secretary of State, and
he would not be persuaded to with
draw it should he tender his resig-
nation.
Senator Foraker won his fight
against Bellamy Storer, Of Ohio,
without having to ask for votes in
the Senate to reject his nomination
to be Asst. Secretary Of State.
Storer was nominated Minister to
Belgium instead, and Foraker has
no objection to his going there.

ent but did not vote, supported

Town ENuMERATIoN.-Mr.

Durlauf has finished the enumera-

finds $50 females, and 275 males
total 525. Last year it was 271
males, and 241 females-total 512-
showing an increase this year of 13.
Taking the usual basis Of 4 to a
child this would indicate a popu-
lation Of 200 in Jasper at present.
If our people would work in har-
mony this could be doubled by the

Mrs. j. c. Hazlett, contained the
following clipping from the Fair
mount, w. Va, Inder.
An interesting history of this
town and vicinity, was recently
found in an old table, by DeForrest
L. Rathbone, who is now plumber
at Warrington. Mr.. Rathbone and
his mother, Mrs. ]. w. Shannon,
lived in Palatine in 1892, and while
there, some neighbor gave them an
old fashioned table, out of which
DeForrest made flower stand. A
few months later they moved to
Warrington, taking the table with
them. Not long since Mrs. Shan
non decided to go to Olean, N. Y,
and DeForrest packed up their
goods. Upon coming to the flower
stand he decided that he would
take the walnut board which form
ed the top and throw away the rest.
In removing the top he found a I
per placed between some brackf ?,
which ran from the legs to the cel-
ter of the top, and the top itself
