When we were a boy, wa learned that' hor­ net's nests built on the ground would keep one warm, simply by sitting on the roof of one and leaving a sky light uncovered for,tire heat to escape. THE wife of Joseph Freund, who formerly kept the Meat Market near the bridge, in this village, but lately resided in Chicago, died quite sud».< denly at the residence of her father,' Wni Frett, near Johnsburgh,last week. She was sick with typhoid fever, but was not considered dangerous uutll a few hours, before her d<>ath. THERE are some people who go to Chicago for Photographic work, but it Is safe to say that none ever have after once giving L. E. Bennett, of this vil­ lage. a chance to show what ho can do. His Gallery is over Perry & Owen's store, and we do not exaggerate when we say he has no superiors in that line in the Northwest. The excellence of his work commends itself to all. When you want pictures of aBy kind in the best style and finish, call on L. E. Ben­ nett. You are sure to be pleased, - MRS. H. H. NICHOLS has fitted up the room in the second story of her block and now has the handsomest and best arranged Millinery an'd Dress making Parlors to he found in the county. She has just returned from the city with a new stock of Millinery and Ladies Furnishing Goods, to which she Invites the attention of the ladies of McIIenry and surrounding country, being confident she can pleas9 them in quality or price. Her stock is com­ plete and will be kept so by frequent visits to the city, and the latest styles brought out as sonn as they appear In the city. Remember her rooms are directly over her store, where she in­ vites all to call, whether in want of goods or not, , / CONCERNING what are kno vn as "standing advertisements,*' in news­ papers, which some merchants say are useless, it has been remarked, and truly, that they commaud confidence. The man who for years resides in a community and lives a respectable life, even though ho be of moderate ability, will grow in confidence and efeteem of his tellows. On the same principle a newspaper advertlsemnt becomes fa- miliar^?the eyes of the reader. It may not be carefully read every day, still it makes the name and business of a man familiar and its continued presenci in the columns or a paper in­ spires confidence irt the stability of the advertiser.--Ex, THE lovers of the Play will be glad to learu that J. F.

This company needs no recom­ mendation from us as they havo before appeared before a McHenry audience and are well and favorably known here and we predict for them full houses. During their 6tay they will bring out some df the most popular Dramas and Farces of the day, and no lover of the Play should fail to visit Grand Hall every evening.

EDITOR PLAINDEALER: -"- Andrew Cook, one of the earliest'liid most prominent of Lake Counties citizens, died about 6 O'clock on the last day of the old year, at the age of 83. From the day of his settlement, over forty years ago, on the farm which had ever since been his home up to a compara­ tively short time before his death, he had always been active in private and public enterprise. He was a man uni­ versally respected lor his good judg­ ment, kind, obliging manners, and sterling iutegrity. Robert Taggart has been spending his vacation at home. He returns to­ morrow to Ann Arbor, where he will graduate In dentistry next June. Mr. Sweneon's enterprise in provid­ ing a good, comfortable hall, though rather small for a skating rink, good skates, and oiher attractions, Is being rewarded by a constantly in:reas!ng patronage, 'i'wo masquerades have been held, and another is contemplated soon, A change in Methodist church service will begin next Sunday. Until further notice Mr. Lee will preach morning and evening on the second and fourth Sundays of each month. The first and third Sundays he will spend in Volo He especially desires a full attendance next Sunday morning at the usual hour halt past ten.

Dr. Shaver is a young physician of more than ordinary abilities, being ex-House Surgeon ^of Cook Co. Hospital of Chicago. If good wishes make success he can not fail to be decorated with the crown of vic­ tory. The G. A. R. boys had uiade arrange, ments for a series of popular lecturts and entertainments for the winter, but being discouraged by the small appre­ ciation of Prof. Meekes' superb read­ ings, and not caring to deplete their treasury to iuruish amusement and In­ struction to a community that shows Its appreciation of a realty good thing, by staying at homo, cancelled all eu~ gagements and gave the scheme up. S. L. Smith, who will be remembered by many of our citizcus as a student at the Richmond High school when Prof. B. F. Stanley taught it, came out from Waukegan to attend the,wedding of his old school-fellow. "Eddie" Robin­ son, and to call on other old frlenc's. He speut the afternoon and night with Dr. K. R. Bennett, a former school­ fellow, and returned to Lake County on Friday. Mr. Smith graduated in law at the Chad wick law school, Iowa, not long since, taking tfie gold medal for the best Thesis, li!s subject being "Lex Laei." He lias opened an office for the practice of his profession in Waukegan with very flattering pros­ pects of succe s. . The masquerade at the Opera House Christmas Eve was a great success. Three hundred and seven admission tickets were sold at the office, and seventy-two for the dance. At least 400 people were In the house. Supper was served at Mr. A.4\ Gray's and won lor Mr. and Mrs. Giay much praise As near as we could count there were nearly one hundred masques, and many of the costumes were worthy of es­ pecial mention; anu were of everv variety from the aesthetic to the ludi­ crous. Two ladles skated together most of the evening the costume of one represented Morning .and the other Night. Winter was nuinerou£ly rep­ resented and tiiere was a !£rge darkey element. Clowns-and negro wenches. Chinamen and Turks, monkeys and men,all mixed up together and gliding swiftly around the great hall presert- ed a strange and incongruous spectacle. Mr. Coulman must have taken "a mint', of money. Dancing sommenced about 10 o'clock and was kept up all night. The music was furnished by Mudgett's band for the dunce and the Richmond Cornet Band played !n the earlier part of the evening for the skaters. . The festivities at the M. E. church on the eve before Christmas was very pleasant indeed. The altar was-arched and decorated with evergreens. Above the main arch burned 24 wax tapers which we suppose represented the date of the month. Beneath the tapers hung a silver star, and under the star, in kilver letters, the word "Jesus." The altar was loaded with Christmas gifts. The ex^rcisee opened with singing by the choir and school, followed by Sup­ erintendent Downing iu prayer; 3d singing; 4th recitation by four little gi rls; 5th, scriptural recitation by May McConnel and choral response, "Glory to God;" 7tli, song and responses by scriptural texts by school; 8th, song by school; 9th, Sauta Claus, wife and chil­ dren came in, causing much merriment hut the Santa Claus was a poor bur­ lesque and the family worse yet, and that part of the entertainment had better been left out; 10th, singing "Christmas Bells;" 11th, recitation by Geo. Wells; 12th, distribution of pres. ents by Messrs. liavthorn and Faber. who both should have spoken louder in making the announcements, as there in ay have been some one in the con­ gregation who wished to hear the names. Eddie Gillespie, Chase Cole and Santa Claus'distributed the pres­ ents as they were called oft. The very pleasant exercises closed with singing' and repeating a benediction by the whole Buuday school. of poems, Miss Ella CoppeamBIth ; Vol­ ume of poems.
