G. W. Clark, living near Morocco, was here last Wednesday, and while unloading some wheat at the Sayler mill, his team took fright and ran away, and was finally brought to a short stop by running into the iron fence surrounding Simon Thompson’s property. One of the horses was thrown onto the the fence and -was seriously injured by two of the iron pickets, which penetrated the breast of the horse and cut two very large gashes, that had to be attended to by Dr. Kannal. He went at the work with the eye of an old professional, and it was but a short time until the wounds were taken care of nicely, and there is no doubt but that the animal will get along all right. Mr. Clark left the horse here with Mr. Kannal so that he may carefully look after the wounds, that they may heal properly. Persons who sympathize with the afflicted will rejoice with D. E. Carr, of 1235 Harrison St., Kansas City. He is an old sufferer from inflam atory rheumatism, but has not heretofore been troubled in this climate. Last -winter he went up into Wisconsin, and in consequence has had another attack. “It came upon me again very acute and severe,” he said, “my joints swelled and became inflamed; sore to touch or almost to look at. Upon the urgent request of my mother-in-law I tried Chamberlain’s Pain Balm to reduce the swelling and ease the pain, and to my agreeable surprise, it did both. I have used three fifty-cent bottles and believe it to be the finest thing for rheumatism, pains and swellings extant.” For sale byF. B. Meyer, druggist. The “Olden Times” concert that was given by the choirs of the Methodist and Christian churches, at the Opera House last Friday evening was a complete success in every particular. We have not the time and space to go into details and give an account of each number on the program, but from the applause of the audience it seemed as if it was all satisfactory from start to finish. After the entertainment, ice cream and cake were served by the ladies. The amount cleared was near 824.

He would call at the houses and places of business and ask if they had any umbrellas that needed repairing. If they had, he was sure to get them, but the trick was, he never returned with them. Mrs. Margaret Lamson died very suddenly last Thursday morning of appoplexy, at the home of her son, Thomas Lamson, about seven miles west of Rensselaer. The funeral services were held last Friday afternoon by Rev. E. Boech. It’s all the same, a slight cold, congested lungs or severe cough. One Minute Cough Cure banishes them. A. F.
