Thi is a good time to sub
serine for the 1-ulton County
Nkws. Only a dollar a year id ad
vance. Wasn't the present you got in
Fort Bedford Coffee a nice one?
On Monthly 11. Mini-po Patter
son sold his new building on Wa
ter street whore ho now resides,
together with the hardware
store, to County Treasurer Geo
B. Mellott. Possession to be giv
en the first ot April. This is a
very desirable property, and the
hardware store, which was estab
lished about a year ago by Mr.
Patterson, has a strong and grow
ing patronage. We wish the new
proprietor success.
With mighty good coffee and
valuable presents free in each
pack, you will find Fort Bedlord
Coffee cheaper by far than oth
ers, even if you do pay a cent a
pound more for it than other cof
fee. George Fraker of Fort Little
ton, met with a painful accident
on his way home from Three
Springs recently which might
havo resulted in the loss of
an eye. While descending a steep
grade near William-Geannger's
he was thrown out of his sled
against a barb wire fence. We
think the law prohibits a fence of
this hind to be constructed along
the high ways, if not it should be
so.

SOMETHING, WORTH KNOWINO.
When a splinter has been driven
deeply into the hand it can be ex
tracted without pain by steam.
Nearly fill a wide mouth bottle
with hot water, place the injured
part over the mouth and press
tightly. The suction will draw
the flesh dowu and m a minute or
two the steam will extract the
splinter and tho luilammatiou to
gether. Children Poisoned.
Many children are poisoned
and made nervous and weak, if
not killed outright, by mothers
giving them cough syrups con
taining opiates. Foley's Honey
and Tar is a safe and certain rem
edy for coughs, croup and lung
trouble, and is the only promi
