A gentleman walked into our office Monday, and after looking over the exchanges for a while looked up and said; “Well darn a man that don't advertise. I have been looking for a half an hour for the name of some Clinton jeweler, but I cannot find a jeweler’s advertisement in any of the Clinton papers.” It only makes us think that the fool killer had better appoint a few deputies.—Schell City News.

Butler has two good school houses for white children and is now building a good house for the colored children. When this is completed her school facilities will be second to no town in this part of the country. These schoo] houses contain spacious rooms, fineiy furnished, well lighted, and furnished with good blackboards, cloak rooms and all the conveniences of the most improved school house architecture. Such advantages with an able corps of experienced teach- ers will enable the pupil to do better work than ever before. We are credibly informed, that the standard of scholarship is not only higher but that the grading is closer and the | work is more thoroughly done than in any previous year. The course of study has been thoroughly revised and much new and interesting mat- ter introduced, so that it now cor |"esponds with the work in the best | city schools.—Record.

When he got through he gave them all another package of medi-/ cine, pocketed his $18 and skipped. Now if a man has a good thing he will advertise it and sell it through the proper channel, so you will be able to get it. Don't bite on another man’s game, you'll get left.

The all-absorbing topic at the present writing is the prospect well being sunk in the north part of town. The drill has penetrated mother earth to a considerable depth and among other things has struck a vein of natural gas. It is well known that Butler fora long time has had an inexhaustible supply of gas of a certain quality, but we are happy to say that this last produc- tion will burn. Without doubt our find will be of great benefit to our town and county by attracting man- ufacturing enterprises, and we have good reason to feel elated. But there are other things that must not be overlooked in the general excite- ment. Among these is the great house furnishing enterprise that we are conducting at the Opera House in this city. Besides the usual heavy stock of staple furniture, we have added a large line of carpet, rattan, plush and leather rocking chairs that must be seen to be ap- preciated. We still keep up our practice of making our customers a handsome present with their bill, j and of course prices inust be right J. & H. J. K.
