THAT TOOTH THAT is stealing sleep and enjoyable hours, will be a valuable asset to life it it is not removed. That unwelcome sensation will be Uppt away, if you will care for that tooth when the very slightest annoyance presents Itself. IT WILL CREATE contentment because the tooth will continue to be of service to you. It is seldom that my patients have cause to wish they had gone to another dentist. Let meet you at an early hour, to talk with you about your teeth. DR. J. W. HORTON

HOME-COMING IS OVER.

Friday’s Attendance Better Than Anticipated, And Big Crowd Was Out to “Jack’s Fire Show.” The attendance at the home-com-ing Friday was better than anticipated, it being rather better than the opening day, and the crowd out at night to Jack Montgomery’s fire show was quite large, there being practically the whole town out and hundreds from the surrounding country. The fire show was along the same lines as the fire show at the 4th of July celebration here last year. A temporary frame structure, or the front and one side to one, rather., was erected on the vacant lot north of Washington street and just west of the river. Colored fire and fireworks were fired off. making a realistic fire, the fire-team and fire paraphernalia came tearing down the main street at breakneck speed to the scene. The “guests” of the Newall Hotel—for such the structure was called—were “rescued” by the firemen, but the “hotel” was beyond “saving” and it was soon a “mass” of blackened timbers. Altogether this show .was the most exciting of all, and while nobody got hurt nor killed, the possibility of such accident was great enough to lend spice to the affair, and a fewwomen and children were pulled out of the way of fire wagons in time to save them from being knocked down.

The balloon ascensions, except for one flight made Thursday forenoon was a complete failure, either the fault of the balloonist or the balloon, and it doesn’t make much difference which. The balloon man and his wife pulled out on an early train Saturday morning, leaving his Dutch assistant with but $2 for his services, but the amusement contractors from Chicago who had contracted the features here, settled Dutchey's board bill and took him to the city with him. A reduction was made to the committee for the balloon's failure to "go.” The register of former residents who were visitors here during the we» k was very incomplete, and several registered who ought not to have done so. The list below gives the names of those registering, we having excluded from this list some who registered from Remington and Wheatfield and a few others who should not have been on the list. Otherwise, we believe, the list is complete. The names have been bunched to save spate, and others who failed to register have all been mentioned in The Democrat in its last week’s issues: Nancy E.
