Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely; bones are spliced; pipes take
the place Of diseased sections OF
veins; a~nticeptic dressings are APP
piled to wounds, bruises. burns and
like inquiries before inflammation
sets in, which causes them to heal
without maturation and In one-third
the time required by the old treat
ment. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts
on this same principle. 1t Is an anti
ceptic and when applied to such In
%juries. causes them to. heal very
quickly. It also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep a bottle OF Pain
Balm In your home and 1t will save
you time and money. not to mention
the inconvenience and suffering
which such injuries entail. For sale

Neighborhood Picnic.

A regular good old time picnic was
had last Wednesday at the George
Barnett spring miles north west Of
this city. The men prepared pot
of nice hash, from a tender beef,
mixed with such vegetables as belong
to this delicious dish. The ladies bak.
edthe pork, fried the chicken, cooked
the bread, pies and cakes in great
abundance. The spread was beneath
the grand old oaks which surround
this noted spring. This community
is very congenial one, and when
they get together, pleasure and good
feeling prevail, and something good
to eat is certain to be provided.
The chief attraction of the after
noon was the ball game, Buffalo vs..
West Springs, resulting in a victory
for Buffalo by score of 10 to s.

Migrants.

The city of Uuion as the population
increases the loafers and vagrants in
crease. The city fathers have it in their
power under the law to apprehend every
one who is able to do work, found loaf
ing about the town. When a person "a
taken up and brought before the mayor
or council charged with vagrancy, it is
the duty of the mayor or council to uues-
ton the person so accused as to his
means of support and his daily occupa-
ton, whether he works one day in the
week or every day, whether he is perma-
nently employed or does odd jobs, if odd
Jobs how much of his time is thus Ia
ken up. To get rid of vagrants and
loafers is to get rid of bad set, some
times thieves, and other law breakers.
No town or city in the State allows loaf
ers or vagrants to remain long in the
corporate limits without knowing their
business and how they make a living.
Union is full of them. They won't work
for any one at any price, and no one
blames them when they live without it.
But in justice to those who do work and
try to make an honest living, the va
grants ought to be compelled to work,
Those who don't work must of necessity
live upon the labor of those who do.
otherwise they would perish. There is
