Schreeves will preach next Sunday at our school house, immediately after Sunday school. A cordial invitation is extended to the general public to attend. John Garriott of Farr, is a frequent visitor at our place and the surprise and consternation of our correspondent can well be imagined when he learned for the first time that Mr. Gr.riott was endevoring to dry up the fountain where we have been accustomed to asuage our thirst. You may be on the right track, John, but golly, won’t it be hard to go thirsty for two long years?" The Prof, of our high school no longer wears the bright smiles as of yore, and while we do not claim to be a prophet or the son of a prophet, yet we do not hesitate to pred>ct that the gloom that now surrounds him would he speedily dispelled if he could, like our Dunnville friend, go off into a Jeminy ht and view a certain young damsel who is now said to be a resident of Rensselaer.

Mr. Dunnville's vision, which reads like a chapter from "Ardath" or the story of a dead self, dropped in as it was by the side of the practical things of this life, strikes us as inappropriate as it would be for an artist to paint a glacier amid a tropical scene, but nevertheless we are glad that he for once was in the spirit though he does not tell us like John the revilator on what particular day it occured, and we are still gladdei that like Paul he did not hear things ‘‘unlawful for man to utter," for had it been so the world might never have known how easy it was for our friend to take hold of his boot straps and lift himself out of the real into the supernatual, which we are assured is by no means a very easy task. We are very sorry, however, that no "Daniel is left to interpret the hand-writing on the wall." Still we have no doubt but what those fantastical figures and musical sounds that greeted his ear was suggested to his troubled imagination hy the familiar sights and sounds that greets every traveler that sets foot within the limits of that little benighted place known as Dunnville. But before concluding this article we would suggest that perhaps it mights he interesting to the general public if he would give a definite statement of the strange sounds and sweet music that greeted his imagination as he stood perspiring on a lonely depot platform one July morning, near tjie beginning of the present century, vainly watching for the girl that failed to materialize.

The greatest danger from colds and grip Is their resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlaiu'e Cough Remedy taken, all danger wilt be avoided. Among the tens of thousands w)m> have used this remedy for these diseases we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventative of that dangerous disease. It will cure a cold or an attack of the grip in less time than any other treatment. It is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by A. F. Long.

Last Wednesday being the last day of her sch >ol, the patrons came in loaded with cakes and pickles and bombarded her until she surrendered to the idea of eating a large amount of pickles. Quite a few of the young folks of Dunnville called on Miss Heath last Sunday evening and enjoyed a very pleasant evening. The chief feature of the evening was a tear-producing musical solo by Bro. Frank McCarthy, in which he demonstrated great musical ability.

THE TWO STORES, - SURREY, IND.

We have completed arrangements ahd made contracts with the largest and most responsible retail firms in Chicago to take our eggs and other Produce for 1903. We are enabled to eliminate all commissions and freight heretofore paid on shipments of such products. We sell direct to the retailers in the city who formerly bought all Produce from Commission Merchants. To be as exact as possible, when eggs are selling at 14c on South Water St., in Chicago, we get 15c per doz., here on our track, thus doing away with any expense, . also making it possible for us to pay Chicago prices at all times! Farmers will bear in mind that we will never pay more than we can secure, but this arrangement will make it possible for us to always pay more than any other firm. THE HIGHEST PRICE We will guarantee to sell onr goods at rock-bottom prices for cash. Formerly it was necessary to make up a loss on our egg sales by selling our Merchandise higher (other firms have to do this even yet.) We pay you cash for all Produce if you want it. Thus you can see that we don’t have to sell you goods to make up any loss. It will be advisable for every customer to watch our prices, as yon will always be paid the top quotations for any produce you bring to us. We publish this statement to further demonstrate that ‘‘The Two Stores” • are the most responsible and reliable establishments in this County. We may have peculiar methods but they are such that insure the customer the fairest, the best, and the only satisfactory treatment.

Miss Tillie walked across the table from east to west and Miss Lora likewise north and south, each devouring ever)thing as thev went, this formed a plus sign on the table, which means more. 1 thought for a while we would need more. But poor Barney bad to wait; but his time came at last and it took him about two hours to fill up—well you must take into consideration his length. The afternoon session was equally as good as the forenoon, which ended in a testimony meeting, all testifying to the good they received from the institute this winter. While a coramittee in an office worked, Out by the window an eavesdropper lurked, Though very eager to hear what was said; Hearing the door-latch click, the rascul tied. Down the side walk he did fly, Loosing his boots,or mighty nigh. Around the buggy shed he did go. But where he stopped I don’t know. » Once an elevator man, I guess. Resigning his position by request. Immediately joined the whittling orowd, A better possition—as lie allowed.
