Adam Lohr was visiting friends
here last week. He left Garrett coun-

the wilds of Oregon where he spent
many years as a shepherd and where
he acquired fortune of probably no
mean proportions. He has many tales
to tell of his adventures in the woody
west. OF late years his home has
been in Ohio where he expects to re-
turn after visiting his relatives in

sojourn at Jessup's Cut-the vilest

During the civil war, as we'll as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea
was one of the most troublesome
diseases the army had to contend
with. In many instances it became
chronic and the old soldiers still suffer
from it. Mr.. David Taylor of Wind

these. He uses Chamberlain's Collie.

Farmers and tOwnspeople who send
to the cities for the goods catalogued
or advertised by the department
stores are striking blow at the pros
perity of the country towns. Utmost
cases they can buy just as cheaply
at home and the home dealer can be
found if the article is not right. The
home dealer helps pay the local taxes
and he and the people of the COUNTRY
towns make market for farm pro-
duce. The larger the country towns
become the better market is made for
the farm-a market which does not
waste the prices received in paying
railroad freights to the city. Doing
ones shopping elsewhere means the
concentration of business in the hands
of few overgrown concerns. 1t
means also ruin to business in the
country towns, and will end in loss
of population and loss of value of
property. The country towns should
be enco uraged, not starved out.
