"Two physicians had a long and stub* born fight with an abscess on my right lung, " writes J. F. Hughes, of DnPont, Ga., "and gav? me up. Everybody thought my time hnd come. As a last resort I tried Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. The benefit I re* reived wap striking and I was on my feet in a few days. Now I've entirely regaiued my health."

The following from the Whitewater Register will probably call up a differ­ ence of opinion regarding a time hon­ ored theory: It is a foolish notion to suppose that the ringing of bells or the *ttanging"jof tin pans will cause a swarm of bees to settle, says Country Life in America, The real origin of this custom dates back to the' reign of Alfred the Great, who in order to prevent disputes regarding the ownership of a swarm, or* dered that the owner should alway* ring a bell when his bees swarmedanil' ever since then, the good farmer's wife has been rushing out with ringing bells whenever the bees swarmed, and the fact that they settled verified, in her own mind, the belief that the bell did it.. The Original/ • Foley & Co., Chicago, originated Honey and Tar as a tbroat and lung remedy, and on account of - the great merit and popularity of Foley's Honey and Tar many imitations are offered for the genuine. Ask for FOLEY'S Honey and Tar and refuse any substi­ tute offered, as no other preparation will give the jSame satisfaction. It is mildly laxative. It contains no opiates and is safest for children and delicate persons. •. - Willing-to be Annexed. There is strong talk of annexing Nunda and Crystal Lake. The citizens of Nunda are dead willing to be an­ nexed and take the name "Crystal Lake" Many of the residents of Crystal Lake are fighting the matter .energetically, fearing that annexation will increase their taxes. A petition is now being circulated, calling for an election' to settle.the matter. Via the North-Western Line.
