The buildings, together with the arrange, ment of the race track and other things, will compare favorably with those of any county in the State. The exhibits were fine and the man agement well organized.—Dorches ter Eagle. COUGHS THAT ARK STOPPED Careful people see that-they are stopped. Dr. King’s New Discovery is a remedy of tried merit.
