OBITUARY. - Emma, the nine years old daughter of J. L. and Ellen Lewis, died of diptheria Wednesday Feb. 18th, after an illness of four or live days. Emma was a lovely littledar ling (too lovely for this world) that just stayed long enough to make us become thoroughly attached to her and to prove her loving qualities. e are often too fond of the little prattlers that make life full of hopes and joys. We sometimes place all our affection- and future hope in them losing sight of the great fountain-head of all love and hope. To the bereaved parents I would say, remember, that while you have lost part of your earthly hope you have gained another gem .in the eternal realms of bliss that should, nerbnns, increase your desire to make good your calling on the Lord. Em ma, we believe that thouha.it joined the angel band and art feasting on theambrosial fruit of the tree of life that grows on the banks of the crystal stream that flows from the fount of God. It is useless to inquire of thee whether thou wouldst ex change thy home among so many little innocents fortius world. Let us all strive to have white winged angels to carry us to our future home as Emma had. A Fiuexd. Let quality, not quantity, be the test of a medicine. Ay it's car saMiiilhi is the conceutrated ex tract ol the best and purest ingre dients.

Let our motto be, 'Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.' If we do our part well and faith fully, the great author of rain and sun shine and of all good, will do his par:. Th -re should be a grod crop of Irish potatoes planted, and a good crop of oats sown. By all means let us try to have a good garden, look ing well to the onion and tomato crop. These are very assential to the health of t he family. Farmers ought to lead some good agricultural paper. They would see many things that could be reduced to practice, and that would be helpful. The farmers who belong to the alliance ought to attend the monthly meet ings, and discuss farm sub jects. It will only require n half day out of each month, and that half day could and ought to be well spent. In conclusion let us not forget that for all our success we are dependont upon the Lord. T. Some Deplorabe Facts. Editor Democrat: The recent raid made by the sheriff, in Potter-town, after the Kentucky and Potter town roughs, has developed some facts which should be made public. The night before the raid, three persons, of Meat Cam) township, carried the news of the intended raid to the in habitants of Potter-town. How the news of the intend ed move of the sheriff was ob tained before any one was summonsed for the raid, we leave for the steriff himself to conjecture. But that it was so carried, we have the word of t wo cit izens of Potter town. We are also informed by the residents and friends of the roughs over there, that a number of the possee took particular pains to inform them that in case the sheriff and his men found the out laws, they should assist them in their efforts to resist ar rest. There wasquiteanum ber of the possee who oppen lyopposed trying to arrest them. But that they wou'd go to the relatives and open ly espouse the cause of such desperate characters, is hard to believe. Someof them, at least, are men who lay claim to resiH'ctabilty ajid christi- auity; and some of them claim large property which iikI cicat" bile.

I then tried, successively, several articles recommended hy druggists, ami all alike fell short of accomplishing tl.e desired result. The last remedy I applied was Ayer's llalr Vigor, which brought a growth of hair in a few weeks. I think I used eight bottles ill two years; more than was necessary us a restorative, hut I liked It as a dressing, and have continued to use it for that purpose. 1 believe Ayer's Hair Vigor possesses virtues far above those of any similar lueparat ion aowon the market."
