The recent grading of the streets

Still we have plenty of rain and
corn and weeds are growing very
rapidly.
The picnickers of the fourth

Hands are awful scarce and we

as the eastern fields are over run with
hands.
The editor of these columns, and
wife, spent Sunday visiting with MIR.
Krisle, talking over the Great fair

the right hand of fellowship and
may they live long and enjoy life.

Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After
Ten Years of Suffering.

II wish to say a few words in
praise of Cham berlain's cholic,
cholera and diarrhoea remedy"
says Mrs. Matte Burge, of Mar
tinsville, Va. 81 suffered from
chronic diarrahoea for ten years
and during that time tried var
ious medicines without obtaining
any permanent relief. Last
summer one of my children was
taken with cholera morbis and |
procured a bottle of this remedy.
Only two doses were required
to give her entire relief. 1 then
decided to try the medicine my
self, and did not use all of one
bottle before l was well and ]
have never since been troubled
with the complaint. One cannot
say too much in favor of that
wonderful medicine" This
remedy is for sale by VIM F
Fee.

that could not be cured by the

Mr.. G. w. Dalgarn, the well
known civil engineer, who has been
visiting for several weeks past his
old home at Meade, Kansas, has re-
