little paper that deserves a place in
history 1t reads:
Prof. R. F. Leakins,
Tonsorial Artist,
Detachable Barber And
Physiological Hair Cutter,
Sharpsburg, Maryland.
Hair Cutting Done
with Ambidexterity
1t isn't very long ago that house
wives began to get excited about
frozen foods. So let's take look
at the ad of ]. c. Bolinger, as print
ed in this June 80, 1884 issue.
After telling his customers that
he had full line of sun umbrellas
from rs cents up, and large stock
of fans from 2 cents up, he made the
following announcement:
The greatest discovery of the day
is the celebrated preparation known
as Antipermatine which will keep
fruit without cooking or sealing air
tight. The fruit retains its original
f1avor-no more stirring or cooking
for an overworked woman-guar-
anteed a sure thing the fruit can
be seen and tasted at my store. I
have the sole agency for this town.
J. H. Beachley advertised brown
sugar, Az and 612 cents a pound;
best "a" sugar (some people call it
granulated) cents a pound; Simp-
sons best prints, 5 and GA cents
per yard; fruit of the loom bleached,
8 cents per yard; nice ginghams, 5
cents yard; Appleton A muslin,
414 to 712 cents a yard.

1 am indebted to Ray Bolinger for
a copy of the first issue of the Eve
ming Enterprise, dated Friday, June
80, 1884, which was published in
Sharpsburg. The little daily paper,
published in connection with the
Sharpsburg Enterprise { weekly
paper), had a subscription rate of
6 cents a week or Is cents month.
The remarkable part of it was, that
even at that time the paper was
represented in New York through
the firm Geo. P. Rowell and Com
pany, a newspaper advertising
bureau. The editor was Theodore
E. Mace.
Here are some of the news items:
The editor stated that on Wednes-
day, June Is, 1884, the day of the
great rainfall in Sharpsburg, a
large iron kettle, about Is inches
deep that sat in his back yard, was
full of water the next morning and
he pointed out that the kettle, which
couldn't catch water from any other
source than a rainfall, was abso-
lutely empty before the big rain
started.
j. c. Bolinger (Ray's father), who
ran general merchandise store in
Sharpsburg, had the first floor of his
residence flooded during the rain.
Editors Note: Stop in at Bikes
Shoe Shop sometime and ask Ray
where he was when the first floor of
his home was flooded.
The Board of County Commission
ers, at a special session held on Tues
day, passed an order directing the
issue and sale of $4,000 of 4 per
cent bonds, authorized by an act
of the Assembly of Maryland to fund
certain Indebtedness of the School
Board. The bonds will be of the
denominations of $1OO and $500 and
will be sold at Public Sale on Tues
day, July 1st.
New Temperance Alliance Organ
ized-At Temperance meeting held
west of Hagerstown on Sunday af-
ternoon and addressed by Rev. w.
H. Williams of this place, an aux
iliary alliance of SIS members was
formed, with the following officers:
Charles McDade, president; S. Mil
ford Schindel, secretary; and George
Eylerly, treasurer.
Sure Cure-The following is said
to be a sure cure for the stiffness
that is now prevalent among the
hogs in this and other neighborhoods.
1t has been successfully tried by
some of our citizens; and, as it is
simple and costs nothing, we would
suggest trial of it. Dig hole in
the ground until you reach clay,
dig the clay out until you have
place big enough for the hogs to
wallow in-then fill with water and
let them go in.
Now let's look at SOME of the ads.
