Kidney Complaints
of all description are relieved at once, and speed

of the coming fourth, however, will take place
on the previons day, Saturday. The "Glorious
Fourth" is celebrated in different ways by dif
ferent people, ways too numerous to mention
and people too numerous to mention, including
those who get "gloriously," or rather beastly
drunk on that day ; but it seems to us that the
proper method for grown up folks to celebrate
the dav is to devote it to the serious considera
tion of their duties as citizens of a nation of
freemen, a nation fast becoming one of the lar
gest and wealthiest on the face of the earth.
For all Female Complaints
nothing equals Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prevrip

man could desire to be. lam thoroughly sat

THIRD ANNUAL FAIR
OF THE
Butler* County
Agricultural Association
-OF--
WESTERN' PEKSSYLVASIA,
TO BE HBLD ON THEIR OBOGNDS,
AT BUTLEIt. PENNA,
—ON—
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday,
September 21st, 22nd and 23rd, 1880.
LIBERAL PREMIUMS TO BE GIVEN.
TO THB PUBLIC :
We take pleasure in presenting to the people
of our County the Premium List of the Third
Anuu.il Fair of the Butler County Agricultural
Association.
Our prospects for a successful meeting are
very flattering indeed. We have secured the co
operation of rep resell tat ivc farmers in different
sections of the county, whose names cuarantee
the success of ar.y enterprise with which they
may be identified.
The management are determined that the As
sociation stall lie devoted exclusively to the ad
vancement of the Agricultural, Mechanical and
other domestic interests of the county, aud will
spare no means to make the coming meeting all
that could be desired by both exhibitors and
1 visitors. Aud we earnestly ask the co-opera
tion of the citiz' ns of onr county, especially the
farmers, in making the coming Fair a success,
and iu doing so, would say that we are fully
alive to the fact that without the co-ojeration of
the farmers, no Agricultural Fair can be made a
success. And believing, as we do, that the inter
ests of agriculture are best advanced by these
annual meetings, we hope the citizens of the
County will look on it as a matter in which we
all have a common interest; and let it be remem
bered that the management cannot make an
Agricultural Fair a success without theeo-oper
atiou of tho-.e most interested in Agriculture.
If you have any article of merit on the farm,
in the shop, or iu the house, bring it along and
put it on exhibition, aud if you don't get a pre
mium yoa will ut least have the satisfaction ot
knowing that you have contributed to the en
joyment of others, and of helping to make our
Fuir a success.
A new feature of our Association is, that it is
our intention to pay all premiums which are not
protested, on the last day of the Fair, so that
exhibitors can take their premiumi home with
them.
A Grand Cavalcade at one o'clock, p. M., of
each day will be one of the features of the exhi
bition, and will be well worth a visit to the
grounds, ns each and every animal on exhibition
can then be seen.
All articles are admitted to competition free,
except for speed, horses and cattle, and every
body is invited to compete.
Another new feature of our coming exhibition
is, that there will be only three days of the Fair,
the first to be devoted to making entiles, and
arrangement of articles and animals on the
ground, and the two other days to exhibition.

We are confident, from a long experience In tlons and use no other Soap, and have a reputation
using iSd «eommendlng FRANK SIDDALLS second to no laundry In white
SOAP, that one trial, according to the very easy clothes; the superior work we have been enabled
printed directions, will overcome all prejudices. It to turn out having secured '
i.i»n really haa wonderful merit for shaving, toilet, the best gentlemen s furnishing stores In ttis city.
The following are the Directions for Use, so simple that • child can understand them.
Dont do anything; so ridiculous aa to buy the Soap unless you intend following them.
4fg-SIOO positively forfeited If it injures the clothes, or vrlll not do everything claimted.
First, put the white clothes in • tnb of water, only made warm enough to be comfortable
for the hands. Then take one piece out at a time on the wash-board, rub the Soap lightly
over it, roll it np and put it back into the same tub, and so on with each piece until all
have the Soap rubbed on them. Then go »way and let them soak at least twenty minute*,
without touching them, when the dirt will all be loosened, and a very little rubbing on
the wash-board, out of that one suds, will make them perfectly clean, being particular to
turn each piece while washing so as to get at the seams. Then wash lightly on the wash
board, through a lukewarm rinse-water (without any Soap,) »o aa to get the dirty suds out.
Then put through blue-water, and on the line, without tcalding or boiling a tingle piece.
Afterward put flannels and colored pieces to soak, and wash them exactly the same way.
It is important not to heat the wash-water in a tin, brass or copper kettle. A tea-kettle
will heat enough water for a large wash with this Soap.
Just Think What You will Save by this Easy Way of Washing /
No Wash-boiler! No Steam! No Smell of Suds through the House I
It has the remarkable Property of keeping the Dish-Cloth, Wash-Rag and
Sponge always Sweet, and of Washing Freely in Hard Water.
