The merited reputation for curing piles, sores acd skin diseases acquired by DaWitt's Witch Hazel Salve, has led to the making of worthless counterfeits Be .?ore to get ooly DeWitt's Salve. J. S. Hugbson & Co. There 19 much dissatisfaction cmong the firemen 00 eceouot of the action of the Mayor last week in fining one of their numb-r for | riding without a lantern on bis way to the fire on Tueeday night. 1 The City Council was to h*7f? met la3t Wednesday night, bot failing to obtain a quorum, tbey adjourned to meet Thursday evening at 7 o'clock. The council did not meet again Thursday night. Only tb; Mayor and two Aldermen were prient. There will probably be co meeting now until the regu? lar time. Tba most sooth i og, be-iliog and antiseptic j application ever demised is Dewitt's Witch Haze! Salve. It relieves at oece end cures ptle9, sores, eczsma and skin diseases. Be ware ef imitations. J S. Hugbson & Co. The new Bartlett Street Church, Baptist, is cow in a fair way to completion. T?e weatherboarding is on and Ve roof i? being corked on. This church will present quite a neat appearance wheo finished. The ladies of the Methodist Church held a meeting Sor.day after the morning serv-ce, to formulate plans for the purchase of a new organ for tba church They raised some? thing over $400 at the meeting lt has not been decided yetas to the kind of organ to be bought, but they may purchase one finer than any in tbe city. Pepsin preparatioos often fail to relieve n?igestion because they can digest only albuminous foods. There is one preparation that diges'S ali classes of food, and that is Kodol Dyspepsia Care. It ceres tbe worst cases of indigestion and gives insrant raJief, for it digests what you eat. J. S Bogbson & Co. A negro undertook to drive a spirited borte in a wagon and lead a wild eyed ox at the eame time last Saturday aod the result was a general mix up 00 Main street. No serious damage was done, bot a lady who was scated in a buggy in froot of Hcghsoo's drug store had a narrow escapa, sa tbe wagon was backed agairst the boggy and very nearly overturned it. Tba new road across Black River has not yet been completed and turned over to tbe County Commissioners. The latest informa, tion is that the causeway is practically finish? ed and will be ready to be thrown open for traffic within a short time, bot as yet noth? ing has been dona toward openiog the ap* preaches on either side of the swamp. There ara now neighborhood roads leading to the causeway, but they will require considerable improvement before they can be considered firs: clars puolic highways. When threatened by paeumonia or any other lung trouble, prompt relief is necessary, as it is dangerous to delay. We would sug? gest that One Minute Cough Core be taken as soon as indications of having takeo cold are noticed. It cores quickly and its early use orevents consumption. J S Hugbson A Co An outhouse in the rear of Capt. A P. Vinson's residence was burned on Tues? day morning, Jan. 8tb. The firemen were obliged to string about 1200 feet of ho3*> io order to re?cb the fire When water w.e obtained, the building WHS completely destrny9d. It was fono'l, aleo, '.hm an attempt had been made to set fire to a chickeo house near bv, bot ?he fire appeared to h ;vp gone cut From all appearances it seems that the fire had an incendiary oripto. It might have caused qui'e a disasierous fire, as the outbuildings were near the re?ider:c?s of no'h C'-pt. Vinson, and Mr. C W. S tan st ll. Af soon as the new water mains are put down th:s section rf the city will bive a much better fire protection This season there is a large death rate among children from croup and lung trou? bles.
