I owed flvo hundred on this farm, five hundred dollars then. But I hev prospered far beyond tho gen'l run er men.
A

Tlireo chairs wuz in our sittin room but fifty years ago, But wo hev prospered wonderf'ly, an now there's five, you know. We've gained a lamp, a puddin dish, an extra yoke er steers, A grin'stone, an a dinglo cart, an all in fifty years.
It's all true wa't our pastor said, tho worl moves fast today. An with a quick, electric whiz goes spinnln on its way It jeBt goes spiunin on its way until its work Is done, But there's few spinners, my dear wife, who've spun ez we have spun.

The new bridge at the Endeen Ford is at last completed. The ford is a rough and difficult one and the need of a bridge has long been felt.

When Bourke Cockran in the Chicago convention said that the 25,000 Democratic soldier votes of New York would not support Cleveland he voiced the sentiment of not only the Democratic soldiers of New York but of every community and of every State in the Union. Already two life long Democrats soldiers of this neighborhood have declared their intention of voting against Cleveland and Stevenson. The memory of Cleveland's proposition to give back the rebel Hags and his pension vetoes does not set well with them. They will vote for the man who has never vetoed a pention bill and who "led the brave boys in blue," to capture some of those very flags that Mr. Clevelond wished to return.

Eternal Vigilance
Is the price of health. But with all our precaution there are enemies always lurking about our systems, only waiting a favorable opportunity to assert themselves. Impurities in the blood may be hidden for years or even for generations and suddenly break forth, undermining the health and hastening death. For all diseases arising from impure blood Hood's Sarsaparilla is the only UDapproached remedy. It is King of them all, for it conquers disease.
