being intoxicated was fined 85 which
he paid, and thanked the officer for

him. The Judge fined him 85 for in-
toxication, and $10, and costs and 10

A few years ago nearly all newspapers
published, at this season, recipes for summer
complaints. Now such items are seldom
met with. Publishers have learned that.

for these diseases and as it is in general use
everywhere they have quit publishing these
recipes. No one 'havin a. bottle of this
