His tongue win hardly Dear inspection at any time; if it is not white and furred, it is rough. at all events. The digestive system is wholly out of order and Diarrhea or Con stipation may be a symtom, or the two may alternate. There are often Hemor- roids or even loss of blood.

There may be giddiness and often headache and acidity or flatulence and tenderness in the pit of the stomach. To correct all this, if not effect a cure try Green's Au gust Flower; it costs but a trine and thousands attest its efficacy. K0TI0E OF DISSOLXmOIT.

All remember the two Frenchmen with the bears who were at Defiance and Hicksville fairs and made quite a prolonged stay in this part of the coun try, exciuiiK universal auiuiiauiuii ouu wonder everywhere.

They went to the shed where the Frenchmen ana bears were stopping for the night ana snot one oi tne Dears, whether Billee or Jumbo we have not yet learned anyway, one of them is dead. The roughs also shot and killed a steer in a freight car near by.

Suit for $600 damages has been brought against the participants in the shooting, and as they are responsible and well-known residents of the town, will most likely tuit thn damases.

Joe people have shot one bur glar, and Spencerville never lets a thief escape: Antwerp is a hummer after them but Hicksville never captures a man. It has been suggested as a good plan for the town or citizens interested to own a couple blood hounds and when any stealing or house breaking is indulged in, put the dogs on the track before it gets uiu ana let mem tracK up tne tmer. xn Farmer township there are several blood bounds kept for the purpose of trackinsr thieves. There might be more sense in keeping a couple blood hounds than so many useless dogs that are afraid of I their own shadows.
