A poor half starved wretch last Sun

great, and the puissant W. IL Conyers
Arose in his might, and struck his knuck

.against the -door, it is u-icertain which,
as th culprit vanished in the opaque
mist of the night. We have not leaf nod
whether the loss was covered by insur
ance. The barked knuckles have been
on exhibition at the Post-office and ether
places of public resort for the past week.

The editor of the mist says he is in
favor of incorporating St. Helen, so as

We have received the Art Amateur
for October. One article entitled " Bed
room" is just beautiful as well as sugges
tive. So much of our happiness depends
on our surioundings, it is wonderful how
people have neglected them. People
decorate themselves, while their homes
are like dens ; it is not poverty that
causes this but lick of taste, and simply
becauso they do not know how. As a
case in hand wo will mention Mrs. Ben-
ham, she can make the roughest home
look like a palace, she possesses the pow
ers of discrimination and combination.
Nature gave her good taste ; to those
for whom Nature has not done so much,
we would sa subscribe for the Art Am
ateur, No. 23 Union Square, New York.

! IN MEMORIAM.
Died at the residence of her son Abe
Neer at Neer City Nov. 6th. at 9 a. m.
Mrs. Elizabeth Neer of paralysis aged
67 years. Her maiden name was Eliza
beth King. She was born on Ne w Year's
day 1816 either in England or on the
Atlantic Ocean when her parents were
in traiisito America, . Her father mar
ried a Pennsylvania Dutch woman for a
second wife, so she understood that- lan
guage and married Caleb Neer, a Ger
man ia Butler City, Butler County,
Pennsylvania. They left there with
four children in the emigration of 1852,
coming here in company with Mrs.
Frantz and children, Aaron Broyles,
Mr. and Mrs. Fowler of Coffin Rock,
Daniel Messner and wife and Mrs Eat
on. They took up a Donation Claim on
Germany Hill, and suffered all the hard
ships and privations ofthose early times.
She was a very industrious energetic
woman and would labor all day in St.
Helen thei fack on her back food for
her little fivraiiy,- while her husband was
preparing land for cultivation. She
bore in all 13 children, and seven aro
living grown to manhood and woman
hood. She afterwards exchanged her
land on Germany Hill for Idnd at Neer
City, where possessed of all tho comforts
and luxuries competence can briug, she
died. One of her daughters married
Mr. Ranck, the County Judge of Clarke
Co. W. T, and her grand daughter Lulu
Ranck was adjudged the queen of beau
ty in the celebration of 1882 at Vancou
ver. Jjer children are all energetic men
and women, and "rise up and bless her."
In her last sickness she was sensible.
She wished Mrs. -Fowler and Mrs. Fos
ter to prepare her grave-clothes. She
desired to see her coffin which was ex
ceedingly beautiful. We never atten
ded a f unrral whero everything was so
lovingly done; there was no clergyman,
so we were requested to make some re
marks at the Court House, and at her
grave. We did, and particularly had
freedom at the cemetery in the grand
old woods that witnessed the heroic
struggles of this excellent pioneer worn
an. Mrs. Fowler and her brother, Mr.
Cross, who both, have very melodious
voices sang at tho Court House, and at
the "rave some of the old familiar
hymns cf long ago. The last melody
they chanted waa exceedingly beautiful,
and so sho was laid to rest amid the
tears of children and old friends of
years agone by the side of her dead off
spring, and left in the care of the All
father with the glorious arch of Heaven
above her grave with the winds to sing
her honored requiem. Instead of the
wild whoop of the cavagp, the cry of the
panther, and growl of the bear bereft of
its young will float above her the steam
whistle 'of the; mill, the car and steam
boat, the ringing of Uic church bell, and
the sound of the hammer and all the
hum of civilization. She helped to lay
the foundation of this great state, and if
there is olie crown brighter or one seat
better in Heaven it is reserved for the
old pioneer woman. Her memory will
crow sweeter and sweeter as the ages
roll by.
1 rojn the low ground of Itvth she rose
Triumphant over all her foes,
Iu the pure light of He-ivc fclie-stands,
. Receiving justice from God's Lauds
His mercy will not pass her by,
He heard her dyin wi.ih and sigh.
With teuder hand He led the way,
Up to the pearly gates of day.
The angels stood, iu.it tier on tier,
To welcome home the pioneer,
They dried her eye, they shook her hand,
No stranger she in foreign land;
For cabin rude tho landscape marred
Innnanuel's palace golden-starred
For scanty tare of olden days,
The richest viands Heaven displays
For dress thai, hardly kept her warm.
Is glorious robe upon her form,
On tresses, growing young and brown.
Is a transcendant sparkling crown.
We'Jt cease our sol a, and dry our lears'
God V nows them well, the pionoers.
Especially he calls them good,
As they have done all that they could,
Kncomium this the most sublimo
That Jesus gave in olden time.

B. J. Kendall & Co. Gents:-! take
pleasure ia infoming you that I uswl
nearlp all of the Lottle3 of Kendall's
Spavin Cure that you sent me from St.
Louis, according to directions, and to
my satisfaction (and I must say to my
surprise) in about t'.vo weeks my mare
was entirely well of her lameness caused
by a bog spavin of over one year's stand
ing and in three weeks time the swell
ing was all gone and the mare is now
entirely well and can trot as glib as ever.
I consider the bottle of Kendall's Spav
in Cure worth to me SI 50 00 an the
animal was worthless as she was on three
legs and could scarcely get around on
them and now she 'is the finest buggy
animal in these parts and with the rem
inent of the bottle after curing the mare
I have nearly cured a very severe corn
on the ball of my big toe that has given
me great pain for two or three years.
I have onlv applied Kendall's Spavin
Cure four times and the corn now is
nearly out by the roots and without any
pain. Iu .short I think it is the best
lini icnt that is in use. I have Kendall's
Treatise on the Horse and his Diseases
and I would not take any money for it
if I could not get another. Hoping you
great success 1 remain .
