AVhat It Huh Done.
About twenty years Mr. James
Bailey originated and put on the
market the popular remedy,
Bailey's Cholera Cure, for Dysen
tery, Diarrhoea, Cholera Morbus,
and all acute Stomach Troubles.
The reputation it has made,
the endorsement given it by
every one who has had occasion
to use it, has proven a source of
great satisfaction to its proprie
tors. What it Will Do.
If von will only be liberal,
spend twenty-five cents, you will
be within the pale of an absolute
security from the dread ravishes
of these Bowel complaints which
carry off more victims during
the three hot months than any
other disease known. Baily's
Cholera Cure will cure. Will you
accept this? You can't afford to
run the risk. For sale by Wal

THE FAIR.
Let The People Rejoice, Fair
Time is Near at Hand.
Oct. 16, 17, 15 $ 19.
AN EXH I B I T ION OF TH E PEOPLE,
For the People and r.v
the People.
Now is the time to begin to
make preparations for the Fall
fair. Watch every opportunity
to provide something that will
help the exhibition and enable
you to make a creditable display
for yourself aud your neighbor
hood. If you cannot prepare
more than a single specimen,
provide that, lor if everyone does
likewise there will be ajmammoth
show. The premium mav be
but small, and the trouble serious
but every person should be pub
lic spirited, and value as the best
part of the award, the welfare of
the industry represented, and the
honor of securing a prize over
ambitious competitors.
The Society, in its efforts to
hold a successful fair, has the
liberal support of the whole com
munity in which it is located,
who will work in harmony with
the managers to secure an ex
hibition well worthy or their
united efforts. No dcubt but
tint many people who have
been repeatedly attending fairs
in the past, have thought their
was much ot sameness in them,
but we aim to get up an exhibi
tion that will not be a repetition
of former shows, or a rehersal of
played out features, but a live,
progressive fair, abounding iii
new sights and features, and in
teresting because fresh aud
strange to the eyes of all who
behold them. We hope to be
able to make this the most mark
ed and memorable of any lair
ever held in this section of the
country. We shall delight to
hear such words of praise from
those who attend, as, that thej
fair exceeded any previous con-j
ccptiou.and in every particular!
it was better than expected -
The fair we hold is devoted to
the interests of the community
in which you live, and no one
can reasonably afford to ignore
its claims for patronage. No
matter how many other fairs and
expositions one may attend, the
home fair has the best and strong
est claim upon him, aud he
should give it attendance also.
He who is most slow in mak
ing a promise is the most faith
ful in its performance. For this
reason the public have assurance
that our Fair this year will be a
full and fair representative oi
whatever is put upon the bills.
