"Congressman" Thomas, our taih r

from Ashland a little high, and pitched

the language used was not nice. Slier

too looks nice, and his prospects for
peaches are excellent. Andy has a
good home and is a Xo. 1 farmer; made

We are requested by the Mayor to
stale that owing to the recent disturb

hope they will whoop it up lively for

We could not help noticing the
beautifully improved appearance of
the road along by Jno. Cummins'

down. A smooth carpet of grass cov

think every farmer would follow his
example. It takes so little time and
does help the looks of the country so
much, besides the weeds will take the
farms soon here if allowed to grow as
this year.

Wayman's Foundry.
During a recent visit to Mr. Way
man's Foundry at this place we learned
the following facts, which we again
put before the people, although we
have called attention to some of them
before. In the first place Mr. W. has
been making many new improvements
has agood brick Foundry building now,
a good oven to bake the forms in, a
young blast Furnace, a brass furnace
and various other new means of mak
ing and doing every possible kind of
work about machinery. "Repairs, ex
tras" and all sorts of castings made on
the very shortest notice. Now please
to remember this to start out with.
COST.
It costs no more to get castings
made, home here, at this Foundry
than to send off, and frequently not as
much. In but two instances has Mr.
Wayman been obliged to charge more
than the list prices for extras and such
things and in these two cases they
were very unusual pieces. An idea
prevails that to duplicate parts of bro
ken machinery, &c, a pattern must be
made, this is not so. Wayman takes
the old wheel or plate and by filling up
the worn oi broken places with plas
ter of paris he has a pattern all ready
and for this he does not charge extra.
The habit of going to the agencies is
so strong it is hard to break it up, but
Mr. Wayman can tell you of a dozen
instances where farmers have tele
graphed and waited and waited and
sent for extras for several days and
then happen to think that maybe he
could make them and got them in a
few hours. Xow this is worth remem
bering, and trying the experiment to
see whether he can make them first be
fore you fool around elsewhere.
We here saw Frank Morrison work
ing on the "insides" (patent of course)
of his " Water Witch" Wayman says
he is getting to be a first class machin
ist, if he isn't a Xo. 1 Marshal.
N'ote by Editor.
Mr. Wayman need not think he is
the only man that suffers from the pro
pensity to send off and get poor
work at bigger prices often the smart
Alecks around town who live and get
their living here habitually send off
for all their printing and some of
them will want to send off for men
to vote for them this fall.
Our Louisville Letter.
Louisville, Aug. 5, 1878.
Ed. Herald, Drunkeness and
loud talk, resulting in an old fashion
ed fist fight between "Fritz" and Mrs.
Zade, the woman who truly cares for
the town herd, made up the street
varieties on Sunday, " Uncle Sam
there's an increase of crime." How
long are the county authorities going
to let this work of selling whisky with
out license continue, are the wants of
the public schools so well provided for
that this source of revenue is no longer
needed, if so we have reached the ze

downward road to decay.

Since giving them the poison they have
been running round as "crazy as loons"
and the river bank is line with dead
rats, in fact it has created a terrible
commotion among them and they have
all left, thanks to the "Centennial Rat

An Undeniable Truth.
You deserve to suffer, and if you
lead a miserable, unsatisfactory life in
this lieautif ul world, it is entirely your
own fault and there is only one excuse
for you, your unreasonable prejudice
and skepticism, which has killed thous
ands. Personal knowledge and com
mon sense reasoning will soon show
you that Greene's August Flower will
cure you of Liver Complaint or Dys
pepsia, with all its miserable effects,
such as sick headache, palpitation of
the heart, sour stomach, habitual cos
tiveness, dizziness of the head, nervous
prostration, low spirits, &c. Its sales
now reach every town on the Western
Continent and not a Druggist but will
tell you of its wonderful cures. You
can buy a sample bottle for 10 cents.
Three doses will relieve you.

"German Syrup."
Xo other medicine in the world has
ever given such a test of its curative
qualities as Boschee's German Syrup.
In two years three million four hundred
thousand small bottles of this medicine
were distributed free of charge by
Druggists in this country to those af
flicted with Consumption, Asthma,
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
gists m every town and village in the
United States are recommending it to
their customers. Go to your Druggist,
and ask what they know about it. Sam
ple bottles 10 cents. Regular size 75
cents. Three doses will relieve anv
case. 3Stf-alt
