Any unusual exposure or quick change in temperature causes roughness and un easiness. Sometimes you have a feeling of tightness as if some foreign body were there. You can treat it with troches and washes, but you don't reach the seat of the trouble. Throat weakness is a symptom of more general disturbance. Scott's Emulsion of Cod liver Oil does cure weak throats by nourishing and strengthening the system. Book about it sent free. SCOTT & BOWNE, ChemLtt, New York. Scld.

June 18, 1897. Rev. Smick of Albany is conducting the meetings at the U. P. church. Some of our people attended a picnic at Springer's grove yesterday. We did not hear of it until it was too late, how ever, it was too cold a day for a picnic. We were presented with a package of nice ripe cherries by a young lady friend, who said "don't put mv name in the paper" and we will do as he requests and et more cherries. Mr. B. F. Crow of Baudon, Coos coun ty, ia visiting friends here. J W Barton is painting F M French's house. II M Stone invited ns to take a ride with him and see his garden. We find that he hts a nice field ol corn and squashes and his potatoes, although planted late are setting there. We vis ited the old saw mill but found that the machinery had been taken away and the large boarding house had been destroyed by fire. We asked Mr Stone if it wai the work of an incendiary, bis reply was "no, some rascal set it afire." There was no insurance on tte building and no one in it at the time. Mr Wade ia now at work trying to Im prove tbe condition of the high wa vs. We would like to avcept the kind in vitation of "Belinda Jane" abd attend the picnic at Jefferson but we are not able to walk so far, however, we bare a brother there, be is an M D and bas a large mustache, "but d..n't say I toll I you so " Perhaps Young Aiuerica wilt be there as he can get on the brakes any morning, but as for ice cream we doubt if he has any nickels to spare ss he is very fond of candy hearts and soda pop.
