A Straight Tip, It is a well established fact that the heaves in horses results from colds, fol­ lowed with cough and possibly distem­ per. At this season of the year the ani­ mal is more likely to take cold than at any other, and with the change from grass to dry feed the conditions are favor­ able for the trouble to advance and be­ come serious disease. Taken in time this may be easily avoided. A few doses of Weare's Sure Cure for Heaves will pre­ vent these diseases, or cure them if al­ ready started. The sooner ic is given the less will be required and the more certain the permanent removal. Particular Notice. All persons indebted to the estate of Richard Bishop are notified that the same must be paid at once. *•> J. B. PERRY, Administrator. McHenry, Nov. 11th, 1895. 19ml Dr. Weare's Sure Cure for Heaves.

The tire was located on what is known as the Thomas Lum­ ley farm, and a load from town drove over only to find that they could do nothing. It appears that one of the men knocked the lantern from a nail and when it struck the floor the flying oil caught fire and scattered the flames in every direction. In an instant the fire wae at the top of the hay mow. Calling to the others to turn the cows loose he proceeded to get the horses out of danger, which was done without diffi­ culty, as the fire was in front of them, and when cut loose ran into the yard. There were foi'ty-eight, cows to turn out, which consumed much valuable time. Had there been two more it is quite probable that they would have perished; as it was the timbers were falling as Mr. Carlson,, the tenant, emerged with the last one. Five buildings were destroyed, two barns, granery, corn crib and tool house, together with all their contents, which consisted of sixty tons of hay, five hundred bushels of oats, ninety bags containing feed, several loads fod­ der 2orn, feed cutter, tread power, crush­ er, grinder, in fact of all the machinery necessary to carry on a large dairy farm All that was saved was two cultivators and a truck wagon. Some insurance was carried, but iust how much has not been ascertained at this writing. At the best Mr. Carlson will be a heavy loser, N U N D A . The drouth is broken. Farmers can husk. The cisterns are filled. We hope to have Indian summer soon. Miss Hattie Andrus, daughter of Mrs. O. L. Andrus, of this city, died last Wed­ nesday, Nov. 6th, after a long illness.

Ochger, pastor of the church, officiating, the church being crowded with sympa­ thizing friends and neighbors. The re­ mains were laid to rest in the Union cemetery. Geo. F. Rushton was calling on a few of his host of frieuds in this city, Satur­ day, on his way from Woodstock to Elgin. The entertainment given by the pupils in the second room of our public school last Friday night, at the rink, was a de- eidod puccrs*. The exercises consisted of songs, recitations and selections from Hiawatha with tableaux. Every pupil having a part done splendidly. Great credit is due Miss Miller in training the pupils of her room for this entertainment, as they all performed in such a way as to indicate discipline and thoroughness, both of which traits Miss Miller possesses. The attendance was large, there beint? some 300 persons present. The receipts were about $17, the admission being only five and ten cents. This entertain­ ment is only the beginning, as it is the intention of Prof. Calhoun to have something prepared and given by the pupiis of each room during the year and thereby giving the parents and patrons an opportunity ofj seeing and realizing what the principal and teachers are doing for their children. The proceeds are to be used in purchasing pictures for the room that gave the entertainment. Both principal'and teachers in our public school are doing excellent work, and if parents and patrons will take the time and visit the school they will understand better what kind of work is beiUg done.
