THE Medical Times says that nothing yet has been discovered in the way of a remedy for diptheria that compares with alcohol. It should be diluted with equal parts of water and given in small and repeated doses as soon as possible after the disease makes its appearance. This is a remedy that everyone should remem­ ber. It is simple, readily' possessed, cheap and reliable. No matter where you go you will al­ ways find those who obstruct your path­ way, always those who belittle your en- deavor, who ridicule your efforts to suc­ cess; who prove great stumbling blocks to progress, who are continually predict­ ing your failure, who lie about, you who discourage any effort you may make, and who rejoice over your failure, those who are envious, cruel and jealous. .You can't] escape these people, they are in every coH ner, in every city and town.' Knowing this, there is but one way ,to do, and that is to thrive and hustle. Dim--At his home, near Volo, Lake County, March 27th 1889, .1 OHN STOFFEL.

M., at his home near Volo, surrounded by his family and intimate friends, with the consciousness of being at peace with God, and all men on earth. Deceased was born near Koblents, Germany, December 81,1827, and qame to America in 1847, and soon after bought his present farm near Volo, where he, with his family, has resided ever since, highly respected by all, a true and upright christian to his end. Mr. Stoffel leaves a widow and ten children, nine sons and one (laughter, to mourn his loss, and miss him as a-kind father from their infancy to the time when all must return to dust. His re- hmins were "followed to their last resting place in the Johnsburgh Catholic Ceme­ tery, on Saturday, by a vqst concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends, from near and far, to thus pay their last sad respect to his memory. v " " V# ntUHES Manda Van Amy Owan B A Olaaa in German.

TOWN XEETINGh Town Meeting in McHenry on Tuesday f" was but little different than in former years, two tickets being m Ithe field and the usual amount of earnest, energetic work being done on both sides. A Demo­ cratic and Peoples' Caucus were called, MARRIED, at Todd Seminary for boys,, on Monday, March 4th, *jt889, Edwarc Haffner, of Harvard, and Miss Anm Barrel 1, of this city, the Rev. R. K.

They will make their future 'home at Roufcfbrd.--Wwidatock Democrat. : Now is the time to clean up your yards and prepare for the hot summer. The warm days of the past few weeks make us all think that spring has come, and that the debris of last year will soon begin to make itself heard through the nostrils of the community. It is not pleasant and wholly unnecessary. If each owner of a house or lot will go to work at once and cleanse the cellar thoroughly, carrying out everything which ought to be out, put gome fresh lime in its place, then gather up all the Stuff outside and make a bonfire of the whole, our town will be much more pleas ant than if this is neglected an<| v$re will starve out a lot of doctors. .'?[ but the Democrats finally changed thei|$ into a Citizens' Ticket. Therefore, oa Tuesday morning, there was presented to the voters the Peoples Ticket, headed by F. K. Granger; for Supervisor, and the Citizens' Ticket, headed by Win. Stoffel, for the same office. The balance of the two tickets'were the same, with tlge excep­ tion of Collector and one Constable. Four hundred and thirty-four votes were polled and resulted in the election of F. K. Granger for Supervisor by 59 major­ ity, and Wm. Schreiner, Collector, by 105 majority, these being the two offices on which the contest seemed to center. The Peoples' Ticket was elected entire with the exception of one Constable. The following is the ticket elected en* tire: Supervisor--F. K. Grai Town Clerk--F. G.

Probably nine Read the advertisement ia anofchstff^ppopfe out of ten will hurry or run across a track ahead of an approaching train or cross a street ahead of a vehicle, rather than wait the necessary five or ten seconds to letifc pass in frontof them. The #mount of nerve force expanded in the repetition of this performance a num­ ber of times each day is considerable, and more than counterbalances the time saved by the hastening. The effect upon one's vigor is not noticeable, but it must be of a wearing nature. Don't do it again. You will live just as long, if not longer, and will accomplish more ^ach day through the energy conserved. ^ v EASTER PARTY. _ kt the McHenry House, McH^whr, 111 Monday evening, April 22d, 1880.

This wine is principally sought for by mothers who have nursing infants at the breast, the best supplying medium to be found. The wine makes good blood.
