Miss Ida Baumgartner, of Linn Grove, was a guest last evening of Prof, and Mrs. L. E. Opliger. Mrs. Fred Bentz and two-children I left this afternoon for Fort Wayne !to spend a few days with her sister, Mrs. Schleicher. Mrs. Schleicher and two children returned to their home at Fort Wayne after visiting her sister. Mrs. Fred Bentz for several days. Speaking of Mr. Clarke, who lectures he.fe April Ist, the Cleveland Leader said: The large audience sat spell-bound during th e entire lecture. His flights of oratory were pen pictures in themselves. His anecdotes brought forth rounds of applause, and the only sorrow expressed was that the lecture did not last longer. You often hear of an expression called a “bull,” and It may be that some of you do not understand what the term means, says th e Chicago News. Webster defines it as “an expression containing an apparent congrulty, but a real incongruity of ideas.” Two on three examples will be better than the definition. An Irishman said to a friend who was studying for the priesthood, “I hope I may live to hear you preach my funeral sermon.” A woman requested that her body b e opened when she died for fear that she might be burled alive. The board of councilmen in a southern city ordered that the new jail should be built of the materials of the old jail and that the old one should be used until th e new one was finished. — -Q-— ■ ■ THE ADAMS COUNTY DETECTIVE ASSOCIATION TO REORGANIZE.

FROM OLD MEXICO (Continued from page 3.) itms through it is nearly a hundred feet deep. Our next stop was at El Salto del Abra, where we walked . through a passage or tunnnel cut in , the rock and came out near a cascade j three hundred feet of a fall. Cliffs , th:«e thousand feet above us draped with the rarest and most beautiful fdrns and orchids. A wonderful place to see. Another stop was at Punente de Dios the “Bridge of the Gods." We walked through a coffee plantation down about a thousand steps to where a lushing mountain stream laps in a great cascade to a deep green pool passes under a stone natural bridge, and takes another leap. All this time w e are climbing up the mountains. Sometimes we can see our track winding so it looks like six tracks. There is so much to tell you about my trip I must not spend more time on this. We reach San Luis Potosi after daik. It is time for dinner, so I will close and serd this letter on. I will begin at San Luis next time and give you a brief sketch of how we have spent our time, and what we have seen. With love to rail, MRS. MORRISON. —— o_ — HARRY PETIT WAS HERE.

Considerable wo*k is being accomplished by the two factions and their Saturday meeting is expected to be of the real waifn variety.

G<iorge Cook, St. Thomas, Ont., | writes: “Dr. Leonhardt's Hem-Roid cured me of a ve:,y bad case of Piles of over ten years’ standing. I had tried everything but got no permanent cure till I used Hem-Roid. I had Blind and Bleeding Piles and suffered everything. Ointments and local treatments failed but Dr. Leonhardt’s HemRoid cured me perfectly.” Hem-Roid is a tablet taken internally which removes the cause of Piles.

IT SAVED MY LIFE WRITES ECZEMA PATIENT. Bedridden Sufferer Completely Cured by Use of D. D. D. External Wash. One of the most remarkable Eczema cures recently credited to the well known D. D. D. Pre.-cription has just been recorded in Chicago. Mrs. E. Hegg. 1550 West Madison street, under date of Dec. 9, 1907. writes as follows: “I suffeied three) years with Weeping Eczema. It started with a little spot on my knees and spread so fast over my whole body. I spent hundreds of dollars and went to every good doctor I heard of, but kept getting worse. Nothing would stop the awful itch and burning. “I had to stay in bed from the middle of May to tht middle of July. Then I tried D. D. D. Prescription. This is the 9th of December and I am entirely free from the terrible disease. D. D. D. saved my life. “When I began this treatment, people wer e afraid of me I looked so terrible. My husband was the only one who would take cane of me. D. D. D, stopped the Itch at once so I could sleep, which I had not done before. Then I began to get better fast and now my skin is clear and white, not a spot anywhere.” Just a few drops of D. D. D. Prescription applied to thet skin brings relief —nothing to swallow or drink. We vouch for D. D. D. Prescription, also the cleansing D. D. D. Soap. (Name and address of druggist.) Get a bottle today if you have any skin disease. Begin your cure at once. o SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. What is Causing the Increase of Catarrh in D«catur? Catarrhal troubles aie increasing, not only in Decatur, but all over the country. Catarrh is a germ disease and, to cure it, germ life in the nose, throat and lungs must be destroyed, and. this can be done only by breathing Hyomei. Thejre is no dangerous stomach drugging when Homel is used: no tablet or liquid mixtures whereby the digestion is often destroyed and intestinal troubles added to the horrors of catairh. B loathed through the nose pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit, its healing balsams penetrate the most remote air cells, destroying the catarrhal germs so that quick recovery follows. The complete outfit costs but SI,OO and Holthouse'; Drug Co. agree to refund the money should Hyomei fail to do all that is claimed for it.
