The hunting season was inaugurated last week by a dozen of our best sports men, but who forgot to bring their game along home. Try again, boys. Constable Ard escorted a prisoner to jail on Tuesday, charged with larceny. Andrew Stover is now a resident of Coburn and occupies his new house. Mrs. Warntz, of Woodward, has also moved here.

Tight Lacing, The Absurdity of the Custom as well as Its Effect upon the Health of Slaves to the Fashion. There would be no tight lacing if girls could be made to understand this simple fact that men dread the thought of marrying a woman who is subject to fits of irritable temper, to bad headaches, and other ailments we need not mention, all of which, every body knows, are the direct and inevita ble product of the compression of the waist ; men like to see a small waist, certainly ; but there is great difference between the waist that is well formed and in proportion to the rest of the fig ure,and a waist which is obviously and artificially compressed, to the destruc tion of that easy and graceful car riage which is one of the chief charms of a woman's appearance. An unna tuially compressed waist is far more certain of detection than a mass of false hair or a faint dusting of powder. The rawest youth that enters a ball-room can pick out the women who have straightened themselves artificially. If a young woman, to obtain the ap pearance of a dragon -fly, has been sub jecting herself to considerable physical pain, and who has been laying up for herself a pretty store of ailments which only want time to pronounce thsmselvss, could only see the stare of scarcely disguised contempt and undei stand the scornful pity which greets the result of her labor, we should have a change of fashion. Through all changes, women remain true only to one fashion ; whether her clothing is as long and lank as that of a Grecian Virgin, or wether she builds around the lower half of her figuie a rotund and capacious structure of steel, she i 3 ever faithful to the tradition of a small waist ; and sho will weaken her circu lation, she will incur headache, she will crack her voice and she will rum her digestion, all to produce a malfor mation which wise men regard with pity and fools with derision. The ladies can be fitted with a corset which will not compress the waist, but give support,health, and comfort to the body, aud easy and graceful carriage to the appearance lias been fully demon strated by the celebrated philanthropist Mme. Dean, of Brooklyn, N. Y., who lately patented a corset which is a com bination of shoulder-brace and spine suppoi ting corset, and while combin ing the benefits of both, is extremely simplified into a first-class corset. They are specially constructed with two curved springs so as to fit exactly on and support the shoulder-blades and another spring to support the spine. Made of the very finest tempered clock spring, thus creating a complete sup port for the spine and supplying a cov ering for the open space in the back, thereby protecting the spine from cold and giving a smoothness of fit to the back of the dress, making it a valuable and most necessary corset for general use. Tt has already received the high est commendations from the loading modistes, the fashionable dressmakers. and the most eminent physicians of the United Furopc, • The Old bMnblished Cornet Mouse of Lewis Soiiiele &Co ,T.) > Broadway, New YoiU, havo been engaged to man ufacture them, which is a guarantee that they will be made of ihe best ma terial and workmanship. A reliable agent is wanted to introduce these goods in this county. For particulars see advertisement in another column. Petin Hall Itemo.

Some of our town folks were to the Union county fair last week,but unfor tunately struck a disagreeable day.

Woodward, nominee for legislature, was in town on Satur day looking up his democratic friends and giving them a general shake. Mr. A. Ileckman and wife, from O hio, left on Tuesday last for their home in the West. Mr. Ileekman reports a nice time during his stay among us and has still a liking to old Centre. We would like to have you with us again, Andy. On Sunday evening last. Miss Puella Dornblazer delivered a very able address on foreign missions, in the Lutheran church at this place. The house was crowded with eager listeners and active part was taken in the cause by a collec tion of over $37. Our town was thrown into quite an excitement pn Sunday afternoon over the runaway of J. C. Condo's horse. Mr. Condo had been to the meeting at the Reformed church and when at home and in the act of unhitching the horse became unmanageatle, upsetting the buggy, started down the road at a furious rate. After running about two miles the horse was stopped in his wild career. Result—a wrecked buggy, but nobody hurt. Plain Jack. ADVICE TO MOTHERS.
