There ■jis not a merchant here but who will glally keep in stock any article there is a demand for. Our merchants are energetic and up with the times, and should be encouraged.

The proprietors furnishes checkers and a board for use of tho players, and every man wlm loses a game is obliged to bring in a scuttle of coal. Either the games are very long up there, or the stove consumes whole heaps o f coal. I f every fellow who loses ii game down here at Carlt Wright's was oblige to carry n similar load, enough muscle would he used up ia a day to move a coal yard, cnles, wagons and all, and Zacn Hook and a few others would be laid up for the remainder of the winter. —Xenia Republican.
