This was a Maga­ zine to be issued semi-annually, and on which Mr. Andrus has spent a good deal of time and money, but owing to the fail­ ure of some large advertising contracts •he was obliged to throw up the enter­ prise. Had he succeeded on the lines marked out it would have been a publi­ cation of a highly interesting character. IN our notice of the new school build­ ing last week, we failed to mention the very efficient Janitor that has been en­ gaged for the present year, Mr. John R. Brents.

NOTICE.--I will-Meet with those who are interested in having a Night School, at the Public School Building, Monday evening, at 7:30. My object in thus giv­ ing my time free of charge is that those who are unable to attend the public school may have an opportunity to ob­ tain a better knowledge of book keeping, arithmetic, writing, spelling, etc. There should be a very large attendance this year. I hope all who are in any way interested will be present at the first meeting, as this will determine, largely, whether we shall have a*a evening school, and what course we shall adopt. Chil­ dren and those who do not care to work need not come. Respectfully, W. H. 8TBAYER. 1 TfAjjmay be able to get a large oity weekly, filled with murders, scandal cases, chicken fights, etc., for less money than you pay for your local paper, but these city weeklies never advertise yourcounty and make your property valuable. They do not help along your schools and churches, they do not publish your county news, they say nothing of you or your town, and have no interest in you. A good newspaper is as much advantage to atown or country as are good schools. If one of our farmer friends should bap- pen into one of those city offices he would find out in two minutes that he had no welcomelthere, such as he would receive in a printing office at home, btand by your home paper; it stands by you and is ever on the lookout for yoor Interest. --Ex.

I could not go anywhere, not even to ray next neighbors, without hav­ ing sick headaches; but since I got glass­ es from Prof. Moses, one year ago, Aug. 10,1892,1 have never hadthe sick head­ aches once since. THOMAS MCALLISTER. WOODSTOCK, III., Aug. 13,1892. Prof. Moses:--Since I have used your glasses my eyes have been very much stronger, and 1 have been able to see without effort. Without them I think I should have been blind by this time. Hare worn them but one year. MRS. CLARA DICKERSON. NUNDA, III.. Feb. 9,1893. This is to certify that I have been great­ ly benefitted by Prof. Moses' glasses. My eyes have troubled me for 10 years, now they i re stronger, and I have only worn his glasses three months. I feel that I recommend tbe glasses very highly. * Yours truly. MRS. G. HUNT. MATFFIWT.O, III., Sept. 23,1893. I bought my glasses of Prof. Mopes a year ago, and I am very much pleased with them. They have helped mv eyes and have also helped my headaches a great deal, and I can highly recommend PrpfcMoses. MRS. H. W. BELDIN. v SIGNAL TRIUMPHS WON. By Dr. Prioe's Cream Baking Powder. Two signal triumphs have been achiev­ ed by Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. First it received Highest Award and Di­ ploma at the World's Columbian Expo­ sition of 1893. Next it secured Highest Award and Gold Medal a&the California Midwinter Fair of 1894. At both Fairs it surpassed all competitors in every re­ spect. The award, in each instance, was for strongest leavening power, perfect purity and general excellence. It was sustained by the unanimous vote of the judges. Tbe victory at Chicago establishes the supremacy of Dr. Price's as the "The Foremost Baking Powder in the World." The triumph at San Francisco confirms 4^4 emphasizes it. & THE Republican rally held at Nunda on Wednesday evening, Oct. 10th, was a success in every particular. There was from 600 to 800 persons present. The best of attention and good order pre­ vailed. Every one seemed to have come to hear. Col. Isaac Clements was the principal speaker, and he held the large audience for nearly one hour and a half, deeply interested. All Republicans, and many democrats, say it was one of the beet political speeches they ever heard. His speech was on the line of protection and its effect upon America and American in­ dustries and the laborer. His arguments were logical, Mid convincing. He gave every person credit for an honest politi­ cal opinion, and said if he believed demo­ cratic principles and policies tbe best for the country he would be advocating those principles instead of Republican principles. He compared the present condition Of the cbuntry, financially, with the condition two years ago, show­ ing conclusively that Republican policies were the best for American industries and American labor. Judge Donnelly was present and spoke very briefly, de­ fending himself and the. other county candidates on the Republican ticket, against the many unfair and unjust things reported to have been said by a few democrats and a few disgruntled, sore-head republicans, who have joined themselves together, not for any princi­ ple, but from pure love of revenge. The ^Tood stock Cyclone Band and the Crystal Lake Campaign Band were present to render music for the occasion. The Re­ publican candidates for the several county offices were present and each one responded briefly to the calls from the audience, stating their position, and adierence to Kepublicanism, each mani­ festing perfect confidence in the sui^ess of the Republican ticket the 6th of Novem- beraext. -- ^ ^ , „ . . . , / : j a . k - & 3 1 .

I must say, however, I cannot praise Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin enough. For the past six months I have been troubled with gastric dyspepsia and indigestion. I could not eat or sleep with any comfort and was really dead for want of food and rest. I tried may kinds of medicine?, but none helped me until my husband brought home a bottle of your Syrup Pepsin. After taking a few doses I felt better, and using it two weeks now I can eat anything and go to bed and sleep, where before I could not, and life seems now worth living. If you wish to use this letter you are are welcome to do so. MBS. NELLIE P. CLOUGH, 647 Austin Av., Chicago. For sale by J. A. Story. 7ml Awarded. Highest Honors-World's Fair.
