A STIRRING BUSINESS.
Yes. a regular revolution business,
in which one sale helps to make another.
The people make us stir arou-.d to
fill orders, a-.il evidently believe we do
a fair square business. Seeiog we have
such a large patronage too, convinces
others they better try us, and so the
trade increases. We're happy over it.
and so are ail our customers. The de
mand for our bread, cakes and candies
(our own manufacture), is greater than
ever, but we are ready to supply the
demand. As the holidays are now com
ing on you will be thinking of Clear
Toys. Give us a trial on these goods.

PAID $5,000 FOR TWO BRICKS.
An Ohio Parmer Thoaght They Wera
Gold, Bat They Turned Oot la be Clay.
Alliance, O., Nov. 14. One of the
most novel, curious and extremely
well laid plans for fleecing money
from credulous farmers has just been
unrouea within a few miles or this
city. The victim Is Herbert Kose, on
of the wealthiest farmers In this sec
tion, and that he should fall Into the
trap is the wonder of the community.
The schemer gave his name as
James Mcintosh, and his home as
Arizona, lie gave out that he and an
Indian were interested in a gold mine,
and that he was In this section hunt
ing for his uncle, whose name was
Hubert Rose. He learned that he
lived in Salem, and that he had re
cently moved to Ravenna. Going
there, he was informed that he was
dead.
Learning that Hubert Rose lived
here, and being almost heartbroken
over the loss of his uncle, he worked
upon the sympathies of the unsus
pecting farmer, who did not tumble
until too late.
Gold bricks were shown him, which
were tested and proved to bo genuine.
The schemer offered n third interest
in the mine, and, furthermore, he
would dispose of the two bricks,
which ho valued at $30,000, for $3,000.
Mr. Rose consented to Interest him
self in the mine aud also take the
bricks at that figure. A time was set
for the transfer and at night, when
the moon was shining bright, $3,000
were given for two bricks, not of gold,
but of burned clay covorod with
bruss.
Mr. Rose is a very much bent mnh
and Is using every means In his
power to intercept the swindler. Un
suspecting farmers in Indiana and
elsewhere in this Stats have been
bitten by the same scheme. Mr. Rose
reels satisfied that nie nuggets were
good gold nnd still believes that such
was the c;ise, a confederate changing
them for worthless stuff after the test
had been maJe.
A FOOLISH HEIRESS.
Sh F.lopc. With a Married Man and
Loet a Legacy.
BfFFALo, N.Y., Xof. 14. Rev. E. A.
Devare, of Dayton, Ohio, is in this
city searching for his pretty niece,
who, he claims, el iped from Dayton
two weeks ago vith George Eis, a
married man and the father of two
children.
Lulu Devare, a pretty, sweet-faced
girl of seventeen, lived with her
grandmother, who has an elegant
house on Detroit street, and Is said to
be possessed of a large fortune. Not
long ago the old lady made a will and
Lulu was designated as her sole heir.
The fortune is sail to amount to
nearly $30,000 and the girl has about
$40,000 in her own name In a Dayton
bank.
Lulu met George Eis and fell In
love with him. He proposed that
they elope, and she consented. Two
weeks ago last Tuesday they took a
train for Franklin, Ohio. From there
Miss Devare telegraphed to her uncle
and grandmother, saying she would
explain later. From Franklin they ar
rived here last Thursday and engaged
rooms, giving their names as Mr. and
Mrs. George W. Graham.
There they met Charles Burns, a
young man who formerly resided in
Dayton. Eis recognized Burns, and
yesterday he and Miss Devare disap
peared. This morning Mr. Devare
swore out a warrant for the arrest of
Els, charging him with abduction.
The grandmother has made a new
will, leaving the girl entlrelv out, and
tho $40,000 in the Dayton Bank has
been taken in charge by Miss De
vare's guardian.
Black Diphtheria Derastatlng Ohio.
Batavu, Ohio, Nov. 14. Black
diphtheria in an unusually virulent
form is epidemic at several points in
Warren and Clermont counties. The
disease first appeared at Hill's Station,
in Warren county, and practically the
whole village has the disease, the
deaths averaging nlnety-nine per
cent of the coses. Business is wholly
suspended and the schools are closed.
From Hill's Station the scourge spread
in all directions, and fully 500 cases
now exist. The death list is something
frightful. Physicians are almost ex
hausted, and funeral processions are
never out of sight. The epidemic is
attributed to low water consequent
upon the long drought.
Cor, Campbell at Dona Piatt' Funeral.
West Liberty, O., Nov. 15. Donn
Piatt was burled to-day at Mac-o-chee.
The ceremony was the simple service
of the Catholio Church, and the body
was laid to rest in the family tomb
without display, but the long line of
carriages that followed the hearse to
the grave told of the esteem in which
he was held. The Rev. Father Wil
liam Conway, of Bellfontalne, per
formed the obsequies. Archbishop
Elder being unable to be present.
Among the pall-bearers were Gov.
Campbell, Col. Frank S. Bond, of New
York; Gen. Henry M. Cist and Judge
Moses F. Wilson, ot Cincinnati.

New York, Nov. 18. Sixty-nine

A FORTUNE
Inherited by few, is pure Mood, free
from hereditary taint. Catarrh, con
sumption, rheumatism, Scrofula,
and many other maladies born in
the Mood, can be effect uallv eradi
cated only by the use of powerful
alteratives. The standard specific
fur this purpose the one lest
known nnd Approved is Ayer'S
Sarsaparilla, the compound, con
centrated extract of Honduras sar
saparilla, nnd other powerful altera
tives. "I consider thai I hare been
SAVED
erer.il hundred dollars' expense, by using
AVer's Sars.-iparlila. and would strongly
urge nil who are troubled with lameness cr
rheumatic pains to give it a trial. I am sure
It will do them permanent good, as It has
done me." Mrs. Joseph Wood, West I'latts
hurgh. N. Y,
Dr. .1. W. Shields, of ftmllhvlllf. Trnn..
says: "I regard Ayer's Sarsaparilla as the
best blood medicine on earth, and knowf
many wonderful cures effected by Its use."
" For many years 1 was laid up with ftcrof
til a. no treatment being of any benefit. At
length I was recommended to plve Ayer'S
Sarsaparilla a trial. 1 did so. and
By Taking
about a dozen bottles, was restored to per
fect health weighing 230 pounds and am
now a believer In the merit s of Ayer's Sarsa
parilla." James I'etsy. Mine Hoss, Kreck
enridgeC'oal Co. Limited!. Victoria, Ky.
" My niece, Sarah A. I.osee. was for years
afflicted with scrofulous humor In the blood.
About IS months ago she began to use
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. and after taking thrcs
bottles was completely cured." E. Caflall,
