HEee your pulse quits
beating regularly, you
immediately summon a
doctor, for if you don't,
trouble is likely to follow. When
the pulse of your watch is irregular
you should have the doctor attend
to it for the very same reason. We

are ust as much doctors in our way
as any physician. We clean out
the whole system, repair all break-
ages, oil up and adjiist the works so
that the pulse will be strong and
regular, and a regular pulse means
perfect time. Our charges are very

Who nevi on the Cole. farm miles'
West of Lendesboro, met With a very
had loss on Wednesday evening of
last Week, by the bottling of his. barn,.
and contents; 'which included,. thie
years crops, and pert of his imple-
ments, - together With two bored& and .
a colt. Mr. Wiltse had gone to: Clin-
ton in the afternoon with his wife,
who was on her way to•Mitchell; and
he bad not tetarried when the fire -was
discovered, though he reached honie
shortly afterwards. The hired man
had put the horses in the stableat five
o'clock, leaving everything perfectly
safe, and had gone into the village.
There is no doubt whatever that the
firc. was incendiary.. Tyro different
persone met a mate on the road, div-
ing from the direction of the fire, and
'although both asked him where the
fire was, he gave no reply:, but drove
hurriedly on. The neighbors who
hurried. to the scene did good effective
work in saving some of the outbuild-
ings, and Mrs Cole desires to thank.
most sincerely those who. did so at great
risk, Mr. Wiltse had an insurance of
0800 on the contents, and Mes Cole,
who, owns the property, had an foster-
ance of $850 on the barn, and $150 on
her contents, in the Meltillop Motunl;
but the loss in both instances will be
'much greater than the ineueatice. A
good deal of sympathy is expressed
for Mr. Wiltse, who is an iedustrious
young man, and this was his first year
on this farm ; the loss he•has sustained
has so disheartened him that he has
concluded to give up his lease, the
owner of the farm consenting) and. he
will go elsewhere to start again He
will have an riection sale of his effects,
ou Saturday next Nov. 4th; and' his
neighbors should see that everything
put upt brings its full value. Mr Thos
Cole Will evork the farm in connection
with his own, next year. • •
