At a dance across the line in our sister state of Ohio, on-last Saturday evening, a large number of those who attend dances, met at the willow Harveys for the purpose of dancing, drinking whiskey and fighting. All of which was indulged in to such an extent that several went home with black eyes and bruised and bleeding noses. Among the numder was one Thomas D. Drake, of the Hoosier state, who had just finished a fine pair of black eves for William Walls, which was done to the satisfaction of all. but one—Essig, who feeling that Drake was deserving of a mark, went at him with,a knife and carved him up in fine shape. Drake is under the care of a doctor with some hope of recovery, but in a very serious condition. A Fatal Mistake. Physicians make no more fatal mistake than when they inform patients that nervous hea rt troubles come from the stomach and are of little consequence. Dr. Franklin Miles the noted Indiana specialist, has proven the contrary in his new book on “heart disease,” which may be had free at W. H. Nachtrieb’s who guarantees and recommends Dr. Miles unequaled New Heart Cure, which has the largest sale of any heart remedy in the world. It cures nervous and organic heart disease, short breath, fluttering, pain or tenderness in the side, arm or shoulder, irregular pulse, fainting, smothering, dropsy, etc. His Restorative Nervine cures|neadachei' fits, etc. Letter List.

Why, when I was a leetle shaver wimmin couldn’t c’llect a sent o’ their 1 day’s arnins, for ’t pro ierly b’longed to their husbands, her time bein’ his’n; if she went out to work, the muney she arned was ritefuliy his’n But now, owin’ to these rantin’ wimmins rights wimmin, things is changed an’ in most of the States property law is tampered with.

prope t is’cu • ulau d. us couist ii b'longs o the man, tot he’s made it all, she haint done 1 othin’ but a leetle housework, an' its per ect'y preposterous to think o’ sich a thing as her havin’ a third to will awxy in case she died fiist—-he’d likely give it to her gals, or to some church what don’t need it, an’ her man dus need it to carry on his bizness, for he’ll hev to marry agin. The law ’lows ’at men kin take better <are o’ children, so it’s all rite for him to giv ’em away. I beteeve thar’s but foui States foo'ish ’nuff to give the mother ekal legal rite to the childern. Thar is lots o’ trubble made by wimmin gettin’ out o’ther. spear. So meny on ’em hev •ot together in W. C. T. U.’s, an’ other nonsensical doin’s, to talk matters over til they hev ben gettin’ fanatercal like, so they find fault with man’s just laws. They du say the age o’ consent otter be more’n ten years old; thet boys are perfected by meny laws regardin’ miners til they are 21. an’ theta gall’s most preshus poseshon kin be taken when a child. Wall, if, they can’t sell nothin’ but their virtue in childhood, don’t ye see a havin’ it so ’ll tend to make mothers careful? Let ’em be kept as of yore at their nittin’ an’ quilt patchin’ and thar’ll be no danger. Spinnin’ ’ain’t ■xpected of ’em now-a-days—mores the pity, for the more work wimmin an’ gals hev to do the less time they hev to think. It has all’us been disastrous to give lamin’ to those you’d keep in subjection, an’ this trubble all comes from edicatin’ galls. My Mandv kin reed an’ rite, an' thet’s nuff tor a woman to no to bring up a family. She's willin’ to be rooted by me—as the Bible enjoins ’bout wives; howsomever, sense the temperance craze she’s bound to work with those wimmin an’ I’ve sot my foot down agin it. She’s alius been willin’ heretofore to let me go to the polls Kr her an’ I promise her I’ll vote again licker, but that I can’t do every time, for ’taint popelar an’ best. She’s inclined to worry on ’count o’ our boys. A good mother’s sort o’ like a hen, redy to file at anything she’s feared will go fur her young ’uns. Mandy’s a queen in her hum, thar I let her rool, only I don’t ’low no nonsense with my money. I give her 25 cents now an’ then when she asks for it, pervided she tells how it is to be spent—she noes better’n to by any gewgaws. An’ she’s sartin’ to never darken my doors agin if she thinks o’ votin’, so she never will. Like meny anuther sensibel woman, she’s satis fled with her rights. She’s willin’ to work an’ slave a hull life time as wife an’ mother an’ to die at last a beggar—an’ I’m willin, that she should! Yours trewly, Zachariah Hardhack. An Important Communication From Tipton. I have suffered with rheumatism for over one year. Have tried every remedy I could think of, but found no relief until I took Hibbard’s Rheumatic Syrup, which has done me more good than all the other medicines I ever took. I am fast being and am satisfied that by continuing •he use of it a short time longer.it will work a complete cure. It is a great remedy and should be highly recommended. Mrs Tom J.
