In 18G3 the great bill was passed in Congress, but Allen never took any land. He moved to Sharon township, this county, and began farming. Shortly afterward his wife died.

A REAL LUXURY I 1 Looking out over the many homes of this country, we see thousands of women wearing away their lives in household drudgery that might be materially lessened by the use of a few cakes of SAPOLIO. If an hour is saved each time a cake is used, if one less wrinkle gathers upon the face because the toil is lightened, she must be a foolish woman who would hesitate to make the experiment, and he a churlish husband who would grudge the few cents which it costs. If your grocer sends you anything In place cf SAPOLIO, send it back and insist upon havLg just what you ordered. SAPOLIO always gives satisfaction. On floors, tables, and painted work it acts like a charm. For scouring pots, pans, and metals it has no equal. Everything shines after it, and even the children delight in using it in their attempts to help around the house. c Ipf"0'000'101 aubrtltute eh .per foods lor SAPOUO to maka a bettor prottl.
