HOPEWELL..

Not hearing from this place for some time, I thought we should be represented in one of the best papersof the «ii«y as well as our neighboring towns. Health is comparatively good... .Thomas Craig is hauling wheat to Mt. Comfort.. ..

Health about Mohawk and vicinity is not quite so good. The grippe seems to have taken afresh start. Mrs. Wallsmith is improving slowly, when we look back and think what she has passed through it seems almost miraculous that she is alive. We hope to see her well again to enjoy life after so mnch pain Samuel Barnard has been sick with the grippe, but is now able to be up James W. Murphy, head sawyer in the saw mill of Newman & Albea, met with a serious accident while belting the machinery preperatory for work. He threw his arm in such a shape &s to come in contact with a small picket saw, entering the arm near the elbow and cutting the arm quite half off partly severing the bone. It is impossible to tell at this writing just what the wound will amount to. Mr. Murphy is a laborer and depends upon his daily labor for ths sustenance of his family which make this accident doubly hard on him It seems that the vicinity of Mohawk, is getting more than its share of painful accidents. Some of these seem more than we can bear for they have taken loved ones from us that seemed as dear to us as lite, but we go taimly on awaiting our turn to go, may we be ready .A. O.

Those who have their binders should take pattern after Mr. Snider Aquilla Grist was in this vicinity Friday doing business for the Hancocjt Farmers Insurants Co. of which he is a director. Mr. Grist is a clever gentleman and a good business inan and is doing good work for the Co. he represents... .There was a nice little wedding in our neighborhood Saturday evening the contracting parties being Mr. Walter Breece of Philadelphia. a»d~Miss Rachel Foster of Mohawk. It is said that Mr. Martin Breece of Mohawk WHS best man. We wish them joy through life.. ..The gas well will be drilled at one*. Mr. Cole has the coutract. It will 1.j sunk on the lot of Mr. F. Wilson jus', north of his store house we expect a gusher. There has been so much gas spent in getting this well started it will take a good flow to replace what has ahvttdy been used JACK.

This estimable lady, and mother who has past her 90th year, has generally enjoyed good health and has retained wonderful preservation of mental faculties. In her religious belief she has always been a follower of the Quakers We thank our dear frieuds for the very a it ei ing appreciation of our productions. We are glad that, our efforts are being appreciated, and we are also delighted with the courteous treatment accorded us by the Editor of the Greenfield REPUBLICAN, Mr. W.S. Montgomery.

Another one of those delightful dances which the VVilkiusoniaiis are noted, was given last week at Loundenbjicks hull. As usual Markleville was well represented jind the major part of the night w:as spent in triping the heavy l'aiitjistic. Had it not been for the confounded grippe, we would have had Dr. Lundy Fuse.-11 shoulder his violin and went down there and shown a thing or two as the maz. were performed in the days of yore.. One thing suggests another, and this recalls many pleasant remembrances of the time past and the many pleasant evenings we spent with Lundy and the ladies at the country dances. Talk about dancing girls, why the barnyards were actually over run with them and they were right at home on a waltz, polka, catillion rand schottish, and such music as the doctor rendered, was enough to make the sanctified dance. Lany was equally as proficient on the floor as he was with the viollins, and well we remember how the good Doctor always came in for a handsom share of praise....We are inclined to indulge a remembence about subscribing for a journal in which the home news are faithfully cherished, something in which you are more directly interested in, we intimate that you take the Greenfield REPUBLICAN, a conservative paper in which you will get full value for investment.

Alongside of such showing as this, how insignificent must appear the Madison County papers We had the pleasure of making the acquaintance, Wednesday last of Mr. J. M.

Heelings to the hand of each with a cordiality that is an evidence of friendly feeling.

There is no danger from whooping cough when Chamberlain's Cough Remly is freely given. It liquifies the tough tenacious mucus and aids in its expectoration. It also lessens the severity and frequency of the paroxysms of coughing and insures a speedy recovery. There is uot the least danger iu giving it to children or babies, as it contains no injurious substance. o0 cent bottles for sale by V. L. Early. March.

"J have just recovered from a second attack/)f the grip this year," says Mr. Jns, O. Jones, publisher of the Leader, Mexia Texas. In the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and I think with considerable success, only being in bed a little over two days, against ten days for the first attack. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first but for the use of this remedy as I had to go to bed in about six hours after being 'struck' with it, while in thfi^v first case I was able to attend to bnsin^^r1' about days before getting 'down. 50 cent bottles for sale by V.
