1t is splendid publication, the letter

do credit to any of the high class
magazines devoted exclusively to
literary pursuits. The number before

In the Storms Icy Grasp.

The heaviest snow since 1857 be-
gan to fall about O'Clock Saturday
afternoon. From that time until
Monday about the same hour it came
down almost without intermission,
the size of the flakes and the volume
varying somewhat.
The weather was intensely cold,
the thermometer registering lower
than for many years. Monday night,
which was the coolest, it was 2
degrees below zero.
The snow fall was Is inches.
| That is what the melting out test, as
made by Z. Powell, Government
| observer here, showed. But it is
| hard to convince most people that
| it was not from 20 to 24inches. The
concensus OF opinion puts it at
about 20 inches. although it drifted
so it was difficult to determine with
| anything like accuracy what it really
was Much of the snow was very
tine-what is called hominy snow
and lay close and compact when it
fell. Otherwise the ground would
have been covered to a depth of two
to two and one-half feet. probably.
The railroads had to annul all
trains, and from the time the regular
passenger trains got in Sunday after
noon. somewhat beIated. until late
Tuesday afternoon there was no move
ment Of either passenger or freight
trains. Think of being snow bound,
with trains tied up between stations
and no mail for more than IS hours.
An unusual occurrence in this part Of
the country certainly.
These are dangerous times for the
health. Group, colds and throat troubles
lead rapidly to Consumption. A bottle OF
| One Minute Cough Cure used at the right
time will preserve life, health and a large

Laboring Under Difficulties

No one who has never had expert
ence in printing otfice-handlng
cold type, ink that is SO thoroughly
concealed that it will not flow with
out heating, and water that freezes
almost by the time it is applied in
making up forms-can have an ade-
quate idea of the difficulties under
which we labor in getting out a
paper this week. And but for the
legal advertisements carried we would
be very much tempted not to under
take the task at all.

The bride, who is daughter Of
Alex and Melissa Register, is worthy
and respectable girl and suitors for
her heart and hand among the colored

Some Cold Weather.

Apropos of the cold spell which
we have experienced during the past
week, the following figures will be of
interest. The winters OF 1861
were the coolest known to the then
oldest inhabitant. And there is no
record of any colder weather in this
latitude since that time
Jan. 10th, 1856, it was 10 degrees
below zero; 18th, II degrees; 21st,
9 degrees; oath, ? degees; Feb. 9th,
6 degrees.
Jan. 23rd, 1857, it was Is degrees;
Jan. oath, degrees.
The big snow of 1857 came in
January. 1t began to snow on the
18th and showed almost continuously
until the 23rd Snow. remained on
the ground about six weeks Hence
it is that many persons. have. the
dates wrong, some. Saying the snow
fell in February, while others say it
was in March. 1t was on the ground
all during February and the first par
of March. but it was in January it
showed.
Jan 4th, 1898, there was a heavy
fall of snow, perhaps the deepest
since 1857. 1t showed four times
during the month, none of it melting
before more came upon it.
Feb. 8th, 1895, it was one degree
above zero. Feb. 18th, 1899, 2 de-
grees below is the coolest known
since Jan, 1857.

IT is A TRIFLE.
THE COMMON TROUBLE, ACID DYSPEPSIA
or SOUR STOMACH.
Now Recognized as Cause of Serious Disease

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach, is form of indi-
gestion resulting from fermentation of
the food. The stomach being too weak
to digest it, the food remains until fer
mentation begins, filling the stomach
with gas, and a bitter, sour, burning
taste in the mouth is often present.
This condition soon becomes chronic and
being an every day occurrence is given
but little attention. Because dyspepsia
is not Immediately fatal, many people
do nothing for the trouble.
Within recent period q remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and is becoming rapidly used and pre-
scrbed as radical cure for every form
Of dyspepsia.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
all druggists for 80 cents per package.
1t is prepared by Il. A. Stuart Co, Mar
shall, Mich, and while it promptly and
effectually restores Il vigorous digestion,
at the same time is perfectly harmless
and will not injurc the most delicate
stomach, but on the contrary by giving
perfect digestion strengthens the stom-
ach, improves the appetite and makes
life worth living.
