Happy days and restfnl nights" result, from using Ayers Sarsaparilla. It so regulates all the bodily functions and strengthens the nervous system that worry and fatigue are comparatively unknown and life is truly enjoyed. It is certainly a most wonderful medicine.

In my rambles last week I stopped a few minuteg at Philadelphia. I learned that the ladies of the M. E. church, who like all christian ladies, are doing their best for the good cause. Every Saturdaynight they serve the eager people with ice cream and other refreshments in the Atberton and BurK room.

Dr. Bell reports a good practice, worthy of his talents as a physician which would insure a large practice. His son Charles is aspecial ist with Dr. Thrasher at Cincinnati. He is competent, able and sure tc succeed.

I was informed that C. L. Black is building an elegant residence on his farm near town. Link is a jolly son of his father, Rufus Black who is now in Bernie Mo..

On the road toward Mohawk evidences of the heavy rainfall were on every hand which had caused all farm work bo be suspended.

As a matter of course I took refuge in the evening at the capacious and ever hospitable residence of Casper Herr. Mr. Herr being one of our most reliable patrons and vali 1 friends.

There is no mistaking the genuineness of the hospitality ever displayed to the way-farer. Every member of the family from the biggest to the least is a hustler and thrift and good management is displayed in every rence panel and a blade of growing crop. I never leave this model home without wishing all were like ir..

At Mr. Herr's I met our veteran hardware man, C. W. Gaut He was accom panic by a Mr. Gildersleeve. Gathered around the organ iu iho parlor our son^.s vibrated the morning air, till a listener would have supposed onrhearrs were as light and glad as those of the little birds which sang in the trees out side.

Passing through Mohawk, the citizens, I observe whiiing awa}r the time after the manner of the renowned Wouter Van wilier.

At this stage of my route I met the inmitable Howard Roberts, doing himself proud in the insurance business among the people.

At Fortville I met Paul Hagan who informed me that his mother was paying an extended visit to her daughter, Mrs. Noble Warrum Jr. who resides iu Logan, Utah. Noble is now editor aud proprietor of the Logan City Journal. Although an ameteur in newspaper work, Noble IIHS talents which when developed will surely pif:« him among the leaders of his profession. Paul, with G. W. Shnltz is running the Fortville elevators. They buy «ll kinds of grain paying the highest market prices.

Being at Fortville I of course stopped at the W isemau house, as do all people who appreciate good, palatable and whole some cooking. If you eat go to Wiseman when in Fortville.

White & Son, wagon makers were laying out their skill iu the usual way turning out vehicles which are unsurpassed for beauty and durability. Their ad iu this paper is a sure guide to the place where first class vehicle* can be purchased «t a low figure.

Spii iger Brothers, always abreast of the times, had a large aud elegant display of all the goods in their line. This large furnishing house is kuown all over the country, and from the manner in which their business is increasing its popularity is still ou the increase. Their goods are arranged in an attractive manner and consists of articles to suit all classes of society.

The ever wakeful hardware men, Haskell and Cook Brothers sold five of the matchless McCormick binders in one day last week. They have also sold two car loads of fence wire this spring and other goods in proportion. It is well worth any ones time to take a look through their implement, vehicle and hardware emporium which is oue of the most extensive in this part of the state.

The genial {banker, I. W. McCo.inell discoursed a few minutes ou government and finance. His remarks display a soundness of reasoning and demonstrate his ability as a shrewd linaucier.

Four of Fortville's enterprising busiuees men, viz W. Claytor, A. Pilkentou, J. Whetsell and Mr. CouKlin, were abseut, attending the vijuueapolis convention so that I was deprived of the pleasure of interviewing them this visit.

On my way to Alfoute I encouutered a half mile of the worst road in this county it is south of the AlJIonte church.

At Alfonte I grasped the hand of P. A. Randall and congratulated him on his marriage to au Ohio lady. His broad smile indicated that he is highly pleased with his choice, Miss Lizzie Myer. It was also an admonition to his bachelor brother, Will, to go and do likewise. Randall Brothers do an immense business there and bring much trade from the surrounding country to that point.

Mrs. Rebecca Craig has recently engaged in the dressmaking trade at Alfonte I am informed that she is skilled in the art aud is rapidly building up a good business.

At Pendleton, I met F. N Felt, T. J. Wilson, and Ed'Curry all of Greenfield, doing the people ou the fruit tree business This is the maiden effort of one-or two of the boys but they were meeting with success.

Fussell & Dunwoody are now owners of the Lewark Livery barn. I met Mr. Fussell who is an agreeable quiet gentleman possessing all the requirements for success. The firm owns some splendid stock. See horse notes.

The Pendleton glass factory is course of construction it will be a twenty-pot plant. The timber is furnished by Randall Bro's. of Alfonte and Springer Bro's. of Fortville.

I heard that C. B. Keesling has purchased an elegant white hearse. I went with him to see the vehicle and do not exagerate iu saying that this is one of the finest iu Indiana. Its cost was $1000. Mr. K. has two fine hearses and is prepared to do promtply undertaking in all its branches as an embalmer he has few peers. He employs the best and most improved modern processes and ie an expert in his line. Iu the direction of funeral ceremonials he displays superior management and a tender respect, which has made him popular and led to the great demand for his services.

G. W. Sturm was on the run about his business. He is having an immense trade in his line. He hat dies all kinds of vehicles and farm implements and sells nothing but is first-class in every particular.

I met Part White at Keeslings. He owns the brick aud the tile factory at Pendleton. Mr. White is spoken of as being one of Pendleton's most honest and industrious citizens. He manufactures large quantities of excellent brick and tile but with the large capacity of hismills it is almost impossible to fill the demand. He is furnishing the brick for the new glass works and the new Masonic block. stopped in at the neat little harness shop of Geo. Ireland while in town. Mr. Ireland is without doubt a skillful mechanic in his line. He showed me a fipe douple set of $60 harness that he had just completed for C. B. Keesling. Th'ey are beauties aud display Mr. Irelands: ability as a harness maker. I would cheerfully recomend, George to the peopie if there are any who chance to bestrangers to him. as a nice young man and a good workmau. Like nearly all Pendleton people Mr. Ireland is a patron' of this paper.

I took the liberty of calling on J. AV. Cain and his new wife at their new home. Young Mrs. Cain is an agreeable and intelligent lady, and Georges gloomy bach-. elor-hood has been turned into the happiness enjoyed by a contented benedict.
