is entitled "The Footprints of Time:"
A complete analysis of our American

civilization; the religion of the Old

from official sources. 732 pages, illus

would know how our government is
organized in its different departments,
should obtain a copy of this book.

Court, of a couple of sudden deaths in
that neighborhood last Sabbath. Mrs.
Hiram Hurst, while on her way to

in the great toe, and only lived some
five or six hours. The other was a lit

some five or six years, who died last

If you mean to bring us Corn or
Oats bring it now. We don't want it

corn or potatoes, or something of that
sort and when they get the offer are
never ready to haul it. We know the
roads are bad, but people have hauled
corn for cash, all the time. Main St.

A Card.
Ed. Herald: It appears that a
wrong impression was gathered from
my remarks at the M. E. Church last
Friday night; that many construe my
language so as to express sentiments
opposed to temperance and ask for an
explanation; which, with your per
mission I will give; not that I think
they have any right to demand it but
as I had no thought of creating such
an impression I can have no hesitan
cy in correcting it. First, I deny say
ing one word against temperance, and
defy any one to quote one sentence,
that I uttered that evening, in oppo
sition to it. My remarks were to the
effect that in the temperance move
ment the object should be to do way
with liquor entirely; and that there
were but two way's of doing it, the one
being by moral suasion, and the other
by preventing the sale and manufac
ture of it by law. That if they purpose
using moral suasion they could not ex
pect to accomplish the object by organ
ization; and I sti'.l think that the
place to use moral suasion effectually
is the home, I further stated that if
they purposed preventing the sale of it
by law that there was some probabili
ty that when they had sat quietly by
and seen the liquor traffic growing in
their town and knowing too all that
Mr. Finch told them and yet did not
enfoice the laws they had, that they
might relapse into that old lethargy
without doing any permanent work;
that a man should not wait for a time
of excitement but should do hi3 duy
in the matter, at the polls always. This
is the substance of my remarks and I
think no one can find any opposition to
tPinperance in them. I learn that
some one after I had gone mnde the
assertion that I ridiculed the -red rib
bon movement in school." Concern
ing that I would say that any one has
only to ask my pupils and satisfy him
self. Some may say that all this is not
sound red ribbon sentiment; and I
would answer as I said that evening
that there were pome things about it
that did not meet my views; while I
recommended the object iu view 1
could not approve of some things done
in the movement and in this I can see
no drference of principle, but only a
difference in method. This 13 all the
explanation I have to make, and as no
one can sustain a charge of using my
influence against temperance or of
keeping any one out of the movement
I cannot see that any further explana
tion is necessary. If any are not satis
fied they should show some valid rea
son why not or hold their peace.

We intended noticing more fully
the amputation of Mr. Frederick
Lewis's left leg close to the body, in our
last issue but could not at that time.
Mr. Lewis was fireman on one of the
B. & M. 11. R. freight engines and was
hurt on the night of the 23d of Oct.,
last by running into a heavy rock slide
just west of South Bend. He had his
left leg badly fractured the lower end
of thigh bone being split and the bone
itself broken a little above the knee,
the ends forcing great holes thiough
the flesh, besides this he had the inner
and outer side of thigh and knee
crushed by the tender against the cab,
the flesh sloughing out and leaving the
bones exposed. The attempt was made
to save the limb and partially succeed
ed for three months, when the lower
portion of leg commenced swelling and
threatening gangrene. A consultation
of Surgeons was called by Dr. Livings
ton, consisting of Dr. S. D. Mercer,
John Black and Wm. E. Donelan who
decided to amputate the limb which
was done on the 15th inst, close up to
the body. Dr. Mercer attended to the
tourniquet, Dr. John Black to Chloro
form, Dr. Donelan to flaps and instru
ments and Dr. Livingston removed the
limb and tied the arteries. The patient
came very near dying from chloroform
shock, owing to his weak condition and
it required greatexertion on the part of
the medical gentlemen present to res
cue him from imminent peril of
death. lie is now doing pretty
well and may recover if no unfor
seen accidents befall him or intercur
rent diseases set in. Dr. L. is hopeful
but regrets that he cannot feel certain
about his recovery just yet.
A girl who formerly lived in St. Lou
is writes from Colorado to an old
friend: "This is the handsomest 200
acres I ever put my foot down on."
Her father ought to get 100 acres more
and have a lawn around her foot.
"Some confounded idiot has put that

No other medicine in the world has

thousand small bottles of this medicine

Druggists in this country to those af

Croup, severe Coughs, Pneumonia, and
other disease of the Throat and Lungs,
giving the American people undeniable
proof that German Syrup will cure
them. The result has been that Drug

their customers. Go to your Druggist,
