SOMETHING FOR NOTHING.

We have heard of the bov who want
ed to eat his cake and keep it too, but
never before Of q business man who
sold his goods and then gave the pur-
chaser credit for the amount paid. To
learn about this send to James vicks
Sons, of Rochester, N. Y, who agree
to do this ir their Guide. The Golden
Wedding edition Of Vick's Garden and
Floral Guids 10 certainly an artistic
work, with its twenty-four pages litho-
eraphed in colors, and nearly one
hundred more pages filed with hand
some half-tone illustrations, photo
graphed from Flowers, Fruits, vegeta.
bles and homes.
While this Guide is really too expen.
siye to give away, they give it with q
Due Bill for 25 cents worth of seeds fuI
only l5 cents. Another new feature il
the doing away with the old packet ol
Vegetable Seeds and stating the quan
tity in each case, the buyer getting
more for bis money.

MORE DESTRUCTIVE THAN WAR.

The liquor traffic is = gigantic curse
on our fair land, Itrobs the poor. burns
houses, destroys property. robs mothers
Of happiness and destroys the manhood
and womanhood Of the young. Because
the Spanish American war killed a
couple Of thousand Of our people, the
papers have been teeming with the
news for months. and tho nation will
not done mourning for some time to
come. During the short time these two
thousand were killed with Spanish bull
lets, the liquor traffic, our own enemy,
maliciously and sternly murdered eight
times that many. and yet we hear not q
word against it, save the wailings OF the
unfortunates themselves. We wish we
could speak loud enough 10 tell the
world with one breath of its great sir
IN perpetuating the liquor tra6ic. Ken

DANGERS OF THE GRIP.

The greatest danger from La Grippe
is of its resulting in pneumonia. II

this remedy for Ia grippe We have yet
to learn Of single case having resulted

was next called He testified that the
aeiendant came to the home on the
10Th of December with a man who gave
me name CT j. w. Mackay. and the
defendant gave the name of j. G. Fair.
Did they have the money to support
the names? interjected Mr.. Stivers,
ironically
proceeding, the witness said they
stald there most of the time till Christ
mas. On that morning defendant came
IN and was given bed 13. He got up
ABOUT noon. and witness noticed he
was disabled. He was lame in his left
leg. witness examined the bed and
found big eliot of blood on the sheet
and on the mattress. He said he had
sprained his ankle. He went away
and did not come back.
William Ferguson, also of the Work
ingmen's home, identified the defend
ant as the man who gave the name
of James G. Fair at the home. On the
night of the Oath he and his partner
were not at the home, but they came
back next morning early. Witness did
not see them Christmas morning.
Deputy Sheriff P. H. Sidley was the
next witness. He testified to having
had conversation with the defend
ant at the county Jail about the 10Th
dress, and witness found bullet wound
in the left leg just above the knee.
Asked how he got it, Moore replied
he got shot Christmas night at Walk
erville. Witness asked who fired the
shot, and defendant replied, you
know"
The state rested and Judge Nichols
asked the defendant if he wanted to
put in any evidence. Moore replied,
mo, sir; I don't think it requires any
evidence / don't think the state has
made out a case"
Mr.. Stivers said that in the absence
of counsel for the defendant. he did
not care to argue the case, but would
merely point out the provision of the
statute only requiring the state to
prove public offense had been COM
mitted to have defendant in fell
ony case to be bound over. Justice
Nichols made the order and Moore
was led back to the county Jail. No
bail was fixed, as the defendant said
he could not give bonds.

Afectionatc Dogs.

Montpelier Argus: An illustration
of the devotion OF animals occurred
last Saturday, the chief actors being
the two dogs of c. p. Pitliin, one on
Irish and the other an English setter.
The dogs are devoted to each other,
and are together almost continually.
Last Saturday the Irish setter went
on the ice on the river behind Mr.. PITT
kin's residence and broke through
when near the opposite side, being
precipitated into the water. The ami
NAL made desperate efforts to get out,
but the ice continued to break on the
edge under its paws every time it at
tempted to climb out. In this way
the dog moved to near the center of
the river, where the swift current COM
menced to draw it under the ice. When
the dog broke into the river the Eng
lish setter appeared to be greatly dis
turbed. and when it failed TO get out
rushed up and down, evidently trying
to devise some plan for rescue.
When, however, the dog commenced
to be drawn under the ice. the Eng
lish setter set up eart-brealting
howl and ran to the barn, where
George Fitzgerald was at work, and
barking and evidently trying to tell
him to follow. at last got him to the
river bank, where he saw what had
happened and pulled out the other
animal from the river. When the Irish
setter reached the shore the other
seemed overcome, and barled and
made the most extravagant demon
STATIONS of joy, tapping the other and
very plainly showing that it realized
the danger from which the ,ther had
escaped, and it's thankfulness there
