THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1886. Communicated. Editor Nappanee News : 1 see" that my proposition to administer the affairs of the County Treasury for $2,000 and refund the balance of the receipts or fees, is criticised by the Goshen Times and Elkhart Review, aud certain politicians, on the ground that I am holding out an inducement for votes, as contrary to law. Let those papers and parties criticise, and put such constructions on the proposition as they may, I am not offering this because I am zealous for the office, but because I feel that exorbitant salaries allowed some of the county officials, and that I know that the official work can be done for a grea deal less and thereby save thousands of dollars to the tax payers of the county. I am making no effort at canvassing the county. The money that is expended in a thorough canvass for votes, should be left in the County Treasury to lighten the taxes of the people, and not be paid out to officials to be lavished in a useless canvass. My motive is for the welfare of the people, and the proposition is made in all candor, and in the earnest hope that it will lead to a great reform in this matter. God helping me I am willing to stand to my proposition let the results be what they may. Yours Respectfully, Geo. Freese, Sr. Attempted Suicide. The Goshen Daily Neivs of last Friday says that last evening about 6 o’clock Dorsey Chamberlain, who lives on the North Side, a man with a family and about 43 years of age, attempted to shuttle off this mortal coil by taking laudnum. Mrs. Chamberlain was absent at the time, but when she returned she soon discovered what was the matter, as the laudnum was in the house for medicinal purposes, and she took energetic measures to counteract the effects of the drug until the arrival of Dr. Miller, by the free use of mustard and walking him around. When the physician arrived he administered an emetic, and the patient was soon beyond danger. No reason is assigned for his desire to leave this beautiful world, his wife saying it was a surprise to her. MILFORD. BY J. I. C. Maus Cammack started on Monday to his home in Washington City.

It cures cholery and all bowel difficulties. Food makes blood and blood makes beauty. Improper digestion of food necessarily produces bad blood, resulting in a feeling of fullness in the stomach’, acidity, heartburn, sick-headache, and other dyspeptic symptoms. A closely confined life causes indigestion, constipation, biliousness and loss of appetite. To remove these troubles there is no remedy equal to Prickly Ash Bitters. It has been tried and proven to be a specific.

A Corpse Racket. At Kendallville last evening as the Lake shore train from the east, whieh arrives here at 6:36, was pulling out of that city, a forlorn looking but welldressed citizen got on board. His sad countenance had a depressing effect on all around him, and his tear bedimmed eyes were a subject of comment and an object for attention on the part of the passengers. A well-to-do Boston gentleman who was ou his way to lowa to locate was particularly affected, and engaged the careworn stranger in conversation. Very reluctantly indeed did the well dressed mourner tell his tale of woe and sadness as he gulped great sobs and the flood gates to his heart ran over with briny tears as he told of a dead wife on the train who had died far away from her home, and was being brought back to be consigned to the tomb among those she loved so well. Would the Bostonian lend him a SIOO until he arrived at his destination and could get a check cashed, said the mourner, as he told the man from Boston that he must have the money to pay the conductor for his dead wife’s passage. The SIOO was forthcoming, and the grief-burden, ed stranger moved his seat to give his grief full scope until his home was reached. He suddenly disappeared, and a man from Boston is now a hardhearted howler who would not lend a man a cent if accompanied by a certificate of character from President Cleveland or George William Curtis. —South Betid Times. Burglars stole S3O in money from the residence of W. S. McClenathan, in Goshen, last Sunday night. Petersons Magazine for November is on our table, the very queen of lady’sbooks.

Fence Rail Philosophy. Come, neighbor Slack, as we have ' been near neighbors for many years, never having an unpleasant word, wo can now afford a pleasant chat for mutual benetit. Now tell me how it happened that you lost your best cow the other day. and then your family horse. Yes, yes, l am sorry for you. Cows will sometimes get choked when they eat in a hurry, if very hungry. I always give my cow the potatoes too small to plant or cook, which will not choke them; it pays to take the time to select them, or, perhaps, to cook them. Yes, “forgot to feed the horse at night, and he got out of the stall and found the way to the grain, which happened to be uncovered.” Well horses are intelligent, and can see when' we keep grain, and, if very hungry, will try and get some. We would do just so, I suppose, but I am sorry for your loss. I always keep the door carefully fastened. It is true that you and neighbor Swain bought the same amount of land, at the same time, and of the same quality, and that he has become, wealthy, but. I do not think with you that the difference is owing jto “luck.” Bear with me, for I feel kindly to you. Your cattle broke into the corn held and destroyed nearly half of your corn, eating some, and breaking down much more, while he had hundreds of bushels to sell. No, I beg your pardon, but your cattle are not a “breaehy” breed any more than his. His feed was better than yours, simply because he scattered fertilizer on his mown lands, freely, having an abundance of fall feed, while yours was so light that your cattle, when hungry, broke over your senses, which were not as good as his, while they should have been better. Hungry cattle are “breachy,” and will break down senses, if possible. You say you cannot “afford to buy fertilizers,”'but the sale of Mr. Swain's corn gave him the means of fertilizing most of his farm; it paid him, and it will all of us. Poor senses and hungry cattle can never be afforded, while such cattle are always “breaehy,” without any regard to the “breed.” Yes, he did sell his corn higher than you did yours, because he carefully watched his paper, noticing the market prices, and seized upon the exact time for the sale, while you was late in marketing what little you had to spare. Do you remember, that while he was send- * ing his to market, yon went two days to the circus, one to the boat-race, that you “camped out” for a week, besides some other losses? Do yon remember that you attended the “spiritual eamp meeting” for nearly a week, right iu haying time, aud lost much of your best hay by the storm that followed, while Mr. Swain got the last of his in the day before?

You say that you cannot afford to take a paper, but ( he gained enough, by watching the market, to take papers for all his neighbors, while his contains much useful matter for his family. I tell you neighbor, that it pays, that every * farmer can afford—particularly, if he uses his money in this way, instead of spending very much more for that vilest of all weeds, tobacco, —to take a good agricultural paper, a good family paper, one to aid his wife in her labors, and a religious paper. My friend, let me assure you that we control our “luck” as much as our cooks do our meals. The man who spends more for whiskey and tobacco than for improved farm machinery, papers and good books, will be “unlucky.” who neglects hi# business, is indoleut, keeps more stock than he can feed, will have poor and breachy cattle. On the contrary, he who is temporate, intelligent, plans his business well, is careful and methodical, does as he agrees, meets his bills promptly, gets new ideas about his business as fast as possible, looks after the weeds, plants and harvests at the right time, is economical aud industrious—not over-taxing himself, keeps out of debt as far as possible, stops paying interest—if he must owe—at the earliest time, will be “lucky,” if he has good, common sense.—lFeSfem H(mmetn.
