LIKE D MONEY!.
Dr.. D. A. Bisbee Offers Popular
Medicine at Half Price.

DR.. ID. A. Bisbee, the popular druggist, is
making an offer that is just like finding money,
for he is selling a regular 50 cent bottle of DR..
Towards celebrated specific for the cure Of
constipation and dyspepsia at half price. In
addition to this large discount he agrees to
return the money to any purchaser whom the
specific does not cure.
1t is quite unusual to be able to buy fifty
cent pieces for a quarter, but that is what this
offer really means, for it is only recently
through the solicitation of Druggist d. a..
Bisbee that this medicine could be bought for
less than fifty cents. lie urged the proprietors
to allow him to sell it at this reduced price for
a little while, agreeing to sell a certain amount.
The result has justified his good judgment, for
the sale has been something remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with headache, dys-
pepsia, dizziness, sour stomach, specks before
the eyes, or any liver trouble, should take
advantage of this opportunity, for DR.. How
ards specific will cure. But if by any chance
it should not, DR.. D. A. Bisbee will return
your money.
The specific is very pleasant to take, coming
in the form of small g%ranules, and there are
90 doses in every package. 1t is especially
convenient when travelling, and no one should
start on a journey without a bottle of this
reliable medicine.

SOME QUEER HAPPENINGS.
Odd Occurrences During the Great
Struggle Between the North
and South.

"Queer things said the major, ac-
cording to the Chicago Inter Ocean,
happened in the old army. In De-
cember, 1862, I was at Holly Springs,
Miss. looking after the business on
the several southern railways just
opened by Grant. Holly springs
at that time was Grants Sec
ondary base of supplies. and was
well to- the rear of his divisions
marching southwark. 1t was crowd
ed with military stores, and was
guarded by about loo men under
the command of Col. Murphy. On the

a Popular Ente rtainment

The popular Parker family has been
secured to give an entertainment at the
town hall Wednesday evening, Sept. Il,
for the benefit of the new church. The
family consists of John II. Parker, con
cert banjoist and vocalist; Mildred Cal
vert Parker, the phenomenal child violin-
list, (she is only s years DID, and Nine.
Inga l.. Liebrich, pianist and soloist.
This company is very highly commended
by the people and press.
The Burlington News says: "The
Mandolin solos rendered by little Miss
Mildred Parker, the phenomenal child
mandolinist, were very pleasing and the
marvellous skill displayed in a child so
young aroused long and hearty APP
plause."
The Burlington Free Press says: "As
was expected, the great feature of the
performance was John ii. Parker's
artistic work on the Banjo, which won
for him vociferous applause"
The New York Clipper says; John
Parker's selections on the Banjo were
done with a correctness of information and
reading in strong contrast to the ordinary
tum-tum and false notes of the usual

night of December 10 | was sleeping
with Nichols, a telegraph operator,
in a room above the telegraph Office,
near the depot; when Col. Murphy
walked us up.
This was about three o'clock on
the morning of the Goth, and the
colonel vas very angry because Mich
OILS did not answer promptly. He
said Van Dorn's cavalry had driven
in his pickets, and that the confed-
crates would attack in force at day
light. lie wanted to report the situa-
ton to Gen. Grant, and Nichols began
to call L. s., the signal for Grants
headquarters, but got no response.
Nichols repeated that call, L. s., a
thousand times, it seemed to me-,
when at last Beckwith, the operator
at Grants headquarters, answered,
and we shouted in %gladness. Murphy
dictated "A dispatch to the effect that
he would be attacked at daylight by
u superior force, and that all was
lost.
LAS the colonel turned TO leave the
Office | called his attention to a large
force of cavalry in blue coats dash
ing toward us in the dim light of the
early morning, and told him with
such a force at his command all wa
not lost. He said we had no cavalry
outside the lines, and sWure the men
riding toward us We're confederates.
Then he and others ran from the
building, while Nichols and my old
colored servant, Moses, and myself
remained. The cavalry in blue coats
dashed up to the depot, where POO or
800 unarmed union soldiers were
sleeping, and sabered the poor fell
lows as they came from their blan-
kets. We were soon i'll the midst OF
a hot fight, and, remembering Grants
order to never let a telegraph instru-
ment fall into the hands of h ene-
my, | caught up IA heavy club and
smashed every instrument in the
room.
"Then Nichols ran and | hid in a
closet, while old Moses prospected,
We soon smelled smoke, and discov'
cred that the confederates had set
fire 10 the building. Looking out we
saw Col. Murphy at the head of about
a hundred men charging the confed'
ate lines. He would break their line
then charge back and strike at an
other point. He kept this up longer
than l thought any man could, but
at last was surrounded and forced tc
surrender. At this juncture l decid
ed to surrender myself, and was soor
one of 200 prisoners sent out by the
road on which Van Dorn's mounted
men were still pouring in.
They were a nondescript lot. in
%rantrymen mostly, mounted on farm
horses and mules, most of them rid
ing without saddles or brides, ant
hundreds of them with only rope
'halters. But They were as noisy a!

q Painful Accident.

Mrs. Mary Leno, wife of Levi Leno,
of East M~iddlebury, was the victim of a
painful accident on Thursday, while
coming TO the fair. The horse driven by
Mr.. Leno became frightened by some
workmen at the road side, and suddenly
sheered to one side. The wagon was
overturned and Mrs. Leno thrown into
the ditch. She sustained a compound
fracture of the left ankle. the bones of
which protruded through the flesh. The
unfortunate woman WAS taken to the
office of DR.. Noble, where the fracture
was reduced and she was subsequently
taken to her home.

THAT night 1 realized that l was
again in the enemy's country fully
armed and equipped for a fight and
with a parole in my pocket. This
had a serious look when the pickets
were driven in by a great crowd of
men bearing down on camp. We soon
discovered the supposed confederates
were colored men who had escaped
from Van Dorm, and among the first
to come in range was old Moses. He
was wild with delight when he saw
me, and | felt better over my parole.
In time | reported to Gen. Grant, who
refused point-blank to recognize my
parole, as it was issued to a civilian.

Letter to w. M. jackson.

Dear Sir: You are an artist, what do
you know about paint?
White lead is 1000 years old, and zinc
about 80. The Greeks knew white lead.
Lead and oil is old-fashion paint, and
zinc is a baby comparatively. But zinc,
if properly ground with lead, prolongs
the life of the paint from about three
years at the most, 10 six.
Do you know that? 1t isn't your bust
ness to know it; but you are an artist.
The sun, that paints for you, destroys
lead and oil, but scarcely affects Devoe.
Devoe is the paint that lasts six years
yes, two or three times six years in favor
