NEW WESTVlLLE. o.

New Westville, o., Sept. 22.-Mary
Meyers has been in with scarlet fever.
She is now recovering and the family
will soon be out of quarantine.
Raymond Mattix, son of John and
Caroline Mattix, died on Thursday of
last week, Sept. 10th, and was buried
Saturday in the cemetery south of our
village where other members OF their
family have. been buried. He was only
sick a few days, and as he had been
exposed to scarlet fever, was in quar-
antine at the time. on that account.
The doctor in attendance however pro-
nounced it tonsilitis, but to protect
others against possible contagion, the
other members of Mr.. Mattix's family
are placed in quarantine for the pres
ent.
Clarence Mattix, young son of
John and Caroline Mattix, while play
ing in their yard, dropped knife into
what was supposed to be an empty
gasoline can. He wanted to get the
knife, SO lighted match, and held
1t inside OF the can. The small guam
tity Of gasoline which had remained
in the can, exploded and burned his
face badly. 1t is thought he did not
inhale any Of the flame, or that his
eyes are not seriously injured. The
doctor in attendance says he is doing
as we'll as could be expected at this
date.
The authorities have taken string
ent measures to prevent any possible
spread of scarlet fever In the village
or neighborhood. All who have been
exposed are in quarantine, and we
hope none of these are going to take
the disease.
On account of the general fear Of
contagion, 1t has been decided to hold
no services in our church until furth-
er notice, and not to open our school
for this week.

For months Richmond citizens have
seen In these columns enthusiastic
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills by Rich

they confirm their statements after
years had elapsed if personal expert
ence had not shown the remedy to be
worthy of endorsement? No stronger
proof of merit can be had than cures
that have stood the test of time The
following statement should carry con-
viction to the mind of every Richmond
