Last Thursday morning he had a load on the Chicago market that sold for $10.15 per cwt., the carload netting Mr. Owens the high sum of $1,981.97. Had not two of the largest hogs died on the way from the Owens place to the station the load would have brought oyer $2,000, The president of the commission company that sold the load said the check tendered Mr. Owens was the largest that had ever been paid for a single carload of hogs by th» company. Mr. Owens was present when the hogs were sold and returned home last Friday morning.—Benton Review.

Constipation and Indigestion. "I have used Chamberlain’s Tablets and must say they are the best I have ever used for constipation and indigestion. My wife also used them for indigestion and they did her good,” writes Eugene S. Knight, Wilmington, N. C. Chamberlain's Tablets are mild and gentle in their action. Give them a trial. You are certain to be pleased with the agreeable laxative effect which they produce. For sale by B. F. Fendig. c As previously*mentioned the Ladies of the Pocahontas and the Ladies of the G. A. R. provided fever bands for each member of Co. M before their departure from Rensselaer for the Mexican border. The flannel alone for the bands cost SBS, and the labor of making them was considerable. The ladies to raise funds to pay for them have decided to hold a lawn ice cream and cake festival in the court house yard on Wednesday evening of next week during the band concert. Tickets will be sold at 25 cents each and it is’ hoped a liberal response will be met when the committee offers the tickets for sale. All money received from the social over the amount required to pay for the bands will be turned over to Co. M’s treasury for the benefit of the members.
