Xo sot of men have ever been more slandered and harassed than the Americans who have gone to work to develop nn American tin- ptaie industry. 1 Heir motives arc constantly maligned nnd their ac tions are continually misrepresent ed. It is rather remarkable, .under the circumstances, that any pro gress should be made in the estab lishment of a business which has been so stamped with odium by those who do not favor its growth on American soil. Hut in spite of ancers, jeer9 and wiinui misrepre sentation the investment of capital in tin-plate machinery seems to go on steadily. The quantity of tin piaie nere last year was small as compared with the volume of bust ness done, but a good start was made whichwill be actively followed up this year. The work now under construction will be making themselves folt in tho trade from month to mouth and before summer is on us it will be soon that the industry is at last fairly established. Tho experiments now being conducted by some of the domestic manufacturers with a view to tho avoidance of much of the hand labor hitherto employed tire at last being crowned with suc cess, and it looks as though ISlCi would bo in more t nan one respect a notable year for the American tin-plate trade. The- Iron Ago. La Crippe. No healthy person need fear any dangerous consequences irotn an attack of la grippe if properly treated. It is much the same as a severe cold aud requires precisely the same treatment. Remain nuiet lv at home and take Chamberlain's Couirh Remedy as directed for a ee vore cold and a prompt and com plete recovery is sure to follow I his remedy also counteracts any tendency of hi grippe to result in pneumonia.

We bespeak a cordial reception for Mr. Thomas or his representa tive from every progressive or public spirited citizen and any person who is interested in cduca tion and mental culture. To start with our library will contain over 500 volumes of standard literature, comprising works of history, biocrraphy, science, religion educa tion. poetry, fiction, references and miscellaneous.
