With but few exceptions correspondents
complain of the cool nights that have
distinguished the past week The tenn
peratureS of the day have also been ger
orally low and the amount of sunshn,
deficient. The precipitation that was
much needed in the southern portions Of
the section occurred generally throughout
the district, i'll some localities being cN-
ccSSivc.
Tcmperature-Thc mean temperatures

low the aVe!a-r, although the higher
readings Of tho latter part Of the week
have somewhat tended to bring them
nearer to the normal.

week has been well distributed over the
district, although the amounts have va
ried greatly in different sections. In

been excessive. number of stations re-
porting over three inches for the week
while in southern parts Of New England
only light showers have occurred, the
correspondents reporting amounts of .Ul
to 03 of an inch. Although in the south
ern portion Of the section the rainfall was

tarded by the cool nights that have pre-
vailed during the week, and there has
been but little advance. except in grains
and grass. the rains that have fallen hay

is somewhat thin. Corn in the south, j.

a constant reader of the Dayton Volks-
zeintung. He knows that this paper
aims to advertise only the best in its
columns. and when he saw Chamber

ing a bottle of it for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the most
terrible pains in her back and could
get no relief. He says: After using
the Pain Balm for a few days my wife
said to me, L feel as though born

had entirely vanished and she could
again take up her household duties =
