Any person wishing to purchase a first class cosking-stove, will please call on JOHN HALE, at the Eagle office, psrlhe ball, at, Scbirmeyer & Phillips’ hall, on Wednesday evening, gotten up by Burt and Nave, on the spur of the moment, was a grand success, completely eclipsing all former efforts <f the kind.

CrifOn Friday night of last week the dry goods house of Gillim & Co., of Newville, Wells county , was entered by some daring rascal, who succeeded in easing the aforesaid gentlemen of about seven hundred and fifty dollars.

We are pleased to learn that our county is about out of the draft. Most all of the townships wil] fill theirqnotas by the last of the week. The men to fill the quota of this township were taken to Wabash on Wednesday, and are sworn into the service bv this time, without doubt, •» frrWe see by the proceedings of the legislature that the senate lias had under consideration a bill to increase the fees of state and county officers. That portion of the bill relating to the fees of auditors, recorders and clerk was stricken out, and the section relating to sheriffs'! fees laid on the table.

TO OUR PATRONS. We would again remind our readers that this season of the year is a lime when they are sonstantly liable to sudden coughs, influenza, sore throat, &c., while the children are in constant danger from croup, throat and lung complaints. It is important that every’ h“ad of a family should provide a remedy that is ready at all times for immediate use, whether assailed at. the dead hour of night, with the breaking out of a hard cold, the racking of a violent cough, er the children with that most dangerous of all dis-eases-»-croup —or at the midday hour, you should always be prepared. In Cue’s Cough Balsam, you will find a really and effectual remedy. It grapples and controls instantaneously the most stubborn coughs, while in croup it is a sovereign cure. The price is hut forty cents per bottle—the bottles twice the size of any other at the same price. Delays are dangerous. You should always have, it in the house. It can be found at nil our drug stores. FeL3 , 1 pill WT TUI'S SlLfi.
