Mr. Hardin Norris, clerk of the drug store of R. Shoemaker, Perry, 111., nays: "A man came into our stare the other day and said, I want a bottle of that stuff that saves children's lives.

It's the medicine you sell for croup." ile alluded to Cham berlain's Cough Reraedp and bought a bottle before he left the store. For sale by Dr. J. E. Pbinnev. An agent of some eastern depart ment store, was in this town selling bills of goods to our citizens and soliciting other trade for the future last week. Of course, we presume be made his new customers believe that they were getting goods at very much reduced rates, but we will warrant he did rot tell them the money tliey were seocing out of the town to an eastern depai tmcnt store for goods would not benefit your home mer- cliaots or your town. It is our candid opinion, the quality of noods bought of these traveling fakirs will in some way be inferior to goods that might be pur chased of our reliable liome merchants. Even if the goods, sent away for are a little cheaper, is it 1b right thing to ig nore the home stores? We do not say it is so here, but we have known instances where people would run in debt at the home stdres and then when they did get hold of a little money, would wend it Away to the department stores and let tlie Accommodating merchant at home wait until they were ready to pay them. We believe Hie all wrong, and, If ur good citileos ever expect to build up a nice, thriving little town in their midst, tliey most by all mM-s support and pat ro lire thv home inorcbwta aim burners otorpnata.
