THYSICIAKS TEST OFTEK prescribe, at this time of year, medicines that have for their basis pur brandy or whisky. If tbe patient gets impure spirits

these made poisonous nyoisnonest cuy rectifiers the effect is Tery harmful. A reputation for securing and selling only pore and unadulterated liquors, is worth

something to a man. Such a reputation August Kreusrer has earned by many

Tears of exnenence. and persons who re

quire whisky or brandy for medicinal purposes, may rest assured that when they buy it of Kreuger, they get it as it comes from tbe distillery, without any doctoring. Tbe best of anything is none too good for tbe people, and while they are buying they should get the best it is cheapest. Yorj oc&HT to see tbe handsome spring stock of suitings just received by Ben. McGee, at bis great clothing emporium, on the south aide of tbe square. He is receiving orders every day for suits or single garments. Some very toney styles of spring clothing now in stock, and great pleasure taken in showing them. Among the late arrivals is a stock of Hats for young and old men all sizes and styles. This is something you will need, and you bad better buy it before tbe stock is picked over. The new styles in neckwear, for gentlemen, are very handsome, and yon should examine tbem. Every article that goes into tbe furnishing department for gents can be found at McGce's at reduced figures. . No Hardware house in this region carries a larger or more care-

The town of Bedford was depopulated on tbe day of the circus in Bloomington. Tbe committee of the Old Settlers would find Bloomington abetter and mote central point ibr the regular annual meeting than the Ketch am fiirm. Canvass tbe matter, deciJe upon the best location, and Bloomington will be selected. The dressmakers of this place have more orders than they can fill by Com men cement. The rage for good clothes is on the increase. But no oae should object how would the better half of creation look without them. The scarcity of ice will be a matter of indifference to Kev. W. P. McNary, he having been presented by bis congregation with a silver ice pitcher. Now if they would give him an ice house it would be a (n)ice arrangement. Under the genial sunshine the deep mnd has disappeared, and clouds of dust arise now in its stead. Loud calls are being made for sprinklers of streets, to manufacture a little mud. We are never satisfied. We make the assertion without fear of successful contradiction, that ours is the largest and most com

Yockey, of tbe Bedford Banner, was here last Friday a return game of political ten pins Feltus having accompanied a candidate for Prosecutor on a visit to Bedford the week befere. 'Squire Chandler is no longer Postmaster at South Granger, Polk tp., tbis county. Mrs. Anna Burgoon is now Uncle Sam's agent at that point. A good selection, too. Soon the agony will be over, and candidates will realize whether all their talk and hand-shaking

has been in vain. Thus far in tbe

race all are sanguine and happy is

the belief that they will prove to be

the men the people will honor with the nomination. James Stout had his left band

terribly lacerated by a Jack, last

Friday. He was endeavoring to

place a bridle bit in tbe animal's

mouth when it closed it jaws on bis left handnd begun to slowly chew. Stout was in great agony and was unable to release his band til I, pulling out his pocket knife with his right band, he opened the blade with his teeth and forced the point into the brute's mouth until it relinquished its hold. Stout's hand is horribly chewed. Five boys, employes in Bollenbacher!s spoke factory at Smitbville, were arrested last Wednesday, charged with committing a rape on a six year old girl named Ketcbam. Two of the boys, (Edgar Burkit and Miles Welch) were discharged after being brought here, and the others, Frank Bookman, John Howard and Hood, were to have had a preliminary examination on Monday. There are some peculiar circumstances connected with this case the rape is said to have been perpetrated on the night of April 10th and nothing was known of it till the 24th. Now is the time to clean alleys,' back yards and other places where filth accumulates, before the hot weather sets in. You may save a large doctor's bill by removing a small pile of rubbish. Look to your

cellars, cisterns and outhouses.

The city primaries occurred on Friday night last. In the 2d ward Ben. Yoss was nominated for coun

Waldron was renominated by ac

clamation ; for tbe short terra (W.

B. Hughes having resigned) there were two candidates Chas. H. Sibert and Wm. H. Slocomb. A ballot was taken and the result was a tie. The convention then adjourned till Saturday night. At 7 o'clock the convention was again organized, the candidates presented being W. H. Slocomb, Chas. H. Sibcrt and Samuel Kerr. A ballot resulted in the nomination of Slo-

The wheat in the vicinity of

Bloomington does not seem to have

been injured by the frost, but in

Do not forget tbe meeting this (Tuesday) evening for perfecting arrangements to decorate Soldier's graves on the 30th inst. This day has always beeen properly observed in Bloomington, and we feel assured that the present occasion will be no exception to the rule. Stuart & McPheeters have been doing a large amount of work on the Harrodsburg woolen factory during the past month. Al. Hays, the foreman of the tin shop,has been superintending these improvements as well as taking an active band in the work. The proprietors are well pleased with the improvements. Edward Clay, son of J. C. Clay, who resides near Harrodsburg, met with a serious accident last week. He was plowing with a double team, and stepped in front

and between tbem to entangle some

of the harness, when the horses took fright and ran. Young Clay was thrown on the plow and was dragged some distance when, by the

plow catching on a stump he was

thrown out, with no other injuries

except a sprained ankle and some

bruises. But it was a narrow escape from death.

One of the most provoking

things to business men is to send out statements to those who owe them and have no attention paid to

the bills, lhe natural assumption is that when a man sends you a dan he wants bis money, and tho very best tbiug you can do is to answer

it in some way even if you cannot

pay at once. If not prepared to

pay at once write and say when you

can. At an events s:ive some satis

faction. To throw the statement

aside and pay no attention to it,' is bad treatment to those who have

given yon credit, and they have a

perfect right to suBpcct that yon do

not intend to pay until you have to. Therefore, don't fail to answer all
