Sanitary
Bedding.

Every bed comfort we offer is home
made right here in Bellefontaine, of
standard make silk prints or flannel
cite, filled with clean, sanitary cotton.
We make them in four and five pound
weight, prices are no more than what
you are asked for Eastern made goods.
We can safely say that every article
we offer is perfect in this line. What
a comparison there is when you come
to think of Eastern made comforts be-
ing sold over the country by merchants
who claim to sell reliable goods.
Those cheap factory made comforts are
filled with the sweepings and off-scour-
ings of different factories collected to-
gether and sold at ridiculously low
price. They are undoubtedly unsani-
tary in every way and might safely be
called good subjects for health officers
inspection. Yet such goods are sold
nearly every day. Stop before you
buy and think of the risk you are run
Mug and the possible consequences.

The rain that came Sunday afternoon
and evening was badly needed, but il
it had continued warm no one would
have objected. The fly is working in
some of the early sown wheat, but the
present weather will stop their work
for q while.
Mr.. Fred Stabler came near losing
his barn by fire one night last,week. A
hand staying with him set the lantern
on the stairway, and Mr.. Stabler, not
seeing it, threw fork full of hay down
the steps, upsetting the lantern. and
spilling the oil over the feeding room.
In a moment it was all ablaze. A
water tank at the corner of the barn
and half bushel in the feeding room
saved the barn. Mr.. S. was burnt in
the face, and now wears his hair clip
ped, and is minus moustache.
A revival will be held at the Breth-
rem Church at this place commencing

Belts in Big Demand.

There is no article of personal adorn-
ment now in bigger demand than the
belt. It's the great leader in all fancy
goods stocks. Last season the run was on
leather belts, followed later by a nal
row, plated satin belt. This years
productions are distinguished from las
both by width and shape. In place OF
a uniform width, three-quarters to an
inch, as formerly, the new belts nearly
all show bodice effect; that is, wide in
back and narrow in front with a dip.
They are made in satin, with very mar
row plaits. Some have fancy orna-
ments in back, others are severely
plain. Due to the extreme width, ali
have stiffening in back to keep the
plaits in shape.
We suggest that you look through
the line before they are picked over.

The Republicans have about so. 00(
majority on all the State tickets, but
Nash.
| They carried four Democratic Sena
torial districts, the 18th, 10Th, 3Oth and
/ 33d.
They elected their Representative es
in Muskingum, Perry, Hardin, Cler-
mont, Marion-Morrow district, Pauld-
ing, Ross, Stark, Van Vert and Wash
ington,-al close counties. The Demo
Gratis carried Highland, Guernsey,
Knox, and one in Mahoning that ought
to have been carried by the Republi-
cans.
The Democrats gained ten Repre-
sentatives in Cuyahoga, and two in
Columbus.
The Democrats elected all their tick
ct in Cleveland, but candidate for
Common Pleas Judge.
The anti-saloon league claims to have
helped elect several Democratic Rep
resentatives, where the Republics n
candidates were opposed to county
local option.
Clarke, of Columbus, the author of
the local option bill, was defeated for
reelection. All the liquor interests
in the State, worked against him.
The Republican vote in Logan
county is over $50 more in 1901 than in
1899.
The Prohibition vote in Logan
county was ia; two years ago. 70; last
year, lis. There was no canvass of the
county.
Hardin county did splendidly. She
gave Nash 462 majority, Harding 497,
and Willis, Qfor Representative $40.
Lucas county, Toledo gave Nash
over 3, 900 majority and elected the en-
tire Republican county and legislative
ticket.
Tom Johnston and his band elected
the entire Democratic Legislative
ticket, but Nash has a small majority
in Cuyahoga. That will help pass the
county local option bill, as their votes
won't count in the Republican caucus
Capt. Will Amos, the Democratic
candidate for Senator in the district
OF Shelby, Darke and Miami
was defeated by Harrison, Republican.
