Adam- son, members of the Chicago "Mendels­ sohn Quartette," will assist in the enter- taiDment Friday evening at City Hall. Do you ever find any letters in your hnsband'e pocket? Asked one married lady of another. "Only those I give him l» post" was the sarcastic reply. THE long dry spell in this section was broken on Saturday night by a heavy rain, followed on Sunday night by a big frost. The bracing air makes every­ body feel better. THE entertainments by the "Watt of tbe Sea Co." at Riverside Hall, on Wednesday and Thursday evenings of list week were well attended, and all were well pleased. They were a good deal above the average of traveling Compa­ nies. •£* . . r K •y: , J p- LOOK not mournfully into the past; it domes not back again. Wisely improve the present time, for it is thine. Then Shalt thou be prepared to meet! the shad­ owy future without fear and with a man­ ly heart. For all may have, if they dare choose, a glorious life or grave. AND now there comes to the front a new game, called "progressive halma." Just what it is only those who have played it or seen it know; but it catches the society people and gives them some­ thing new to go crazy over for a time. Just what the next thing in "progression" Will be is yet to be told. V V IT is said that in a district in Mead county, Kansas, there is only one family, 'the husband and the wife constitute the school board, and they employ their only child, a daughter, as teacher, who, of 4 course, has no pupils. Recently they mined her salary from $35 to $40 a month. JOHN EVANSON & Co. have sent in a fpew advertisement but too late for this peek, but in the meantime do not fail to sail at their store and see the bargains they are offering in Fall and Winter Goods. They are offering Dress Flan­ nels at 25, 35, 45, 50, 85 and 95 cents fier yard, and all other goods in propor­ tion. Don't fail to read their advertise­ ment next week. ON Friday last, at the Libertyville Fair, Harry Gunn, of this city, drove A. -J. Raymond's Morgan Stallion, Green Mountain Boy, a half mile in 1:19, the last quarter in 39 seconds--a 2:36 gait. Be had been handled for speed just two weeks, and had served eighty mares this season. The horsp*never was driven for speed until he came into Mr. Goon's • bands.-^Waukegau Patriot. THE Lake Geneva Herald says: "Al. Key wood, of Greenwood, 111., met with an accident while at the lake last Sunday. While riding on one of the steamers with bis feet hanging over the railing, his legs Were caught between the boat and the pier and badly jammed. He was mad because the captain had failed to blow the whistle as he neared the pier, not . knowing that it was contrary to rules bere to blow whistles on Sunday. JUDGING from the weather we have been having the past few years, there seems to be some mistake in the months that go to make up the different seasons of the jear. As it has been of late years, Janu- .ary, February and March should, "Winter; April, May and June, Spring; July, August and September, Summer; October, November and December, Fall. "Either the weather is 'way off or the one •"who conceived the idea of naming the reasons and different months in each, was off. BERT STEimrae, of Gary, spent Sunday in this village. JonN MORTON, of Kansas, was calling on friends in this county last week. , W. E. COLBY will occupy the Mrs. L A. Clark house this winter. WILL BONSLBTT, arrived home on Sat­ urday after an absence of about ten months. FRANK BARMAN, of the firm of Barbian Bros., is attending to business in St. Louis, Mo., this week. MIHS ABBIE FLETCHER, of Winona, Minn., is visiting with E. Lamphere and family this week. ATTORNEY C. P. BABIES and Sheriff Udell were attending to professional busi­ ness in this village the first, of the week. PHILLIP GIESELER, of Fairfax, Iowa, an old-time resident here, was calling on friends in this vicinity the past week. DR. O. J. HOWARD has moved into Mrs. Wm.

All interested are invited to be present. * W. A. CRTSTT, Vice President. JCLTA A. STOBY, secretary. SMALL acts of kindness, how pleasant and desirable do they make life. Every dark object is made light by them, and every tear brushed away. When the heart is sad, and despondency sits at the entrance of the soul, a trifling kindness drives away despair and makes the path cheerful and pleasant. IT is unlawful for a husband to get his wife's mail from the post office and open it. For this offense a man was fined twenty-five dollars and costs in the United States court at Des Moines last week by Judge Liras, although it was proven that the letter was written by an­ other man to the defendant's wife. This is very discouraging to a man who wants to keep posted in the current events of the day. THE residence of Edward Wallace, on the old Mark Hickox place, northeast of this city, in Greenwood township, was destroyed by fire last Monday. It seems that Mr. Wallace had been burningbrush early in the day and supposed that the fire had gone out, but the high wind in the afternoon blew it to the house, which was soon in ashes. There was an insur­ ance of $500 on the property.--Demo­ crat. TRIFLES are said to be as light as air, but if you let one bother you to-day, to­ morrow you will be worried twice as much by a trifle half as large as the one that bothered you yesterday. There is nothing that grows large quicker than the habit of worrying and borrowing trouble, and there is nothing more use­ less, for all that worry ever accomplished was the stamping of a few more wrinkles and the turning of a few more gray hairs. A CLERK in an English parish was told to give out this notice: "On Sunday next the service in this church will be held in the afternoon and on the follow* ing Sunday it will be held in the morning and so on alternately until further notice." What he actually did give out was as follow?: "On Sunday next the morning service in this church will be held in the afternoon, and on the follow­ ing Sunday the afternoon service will be held in the morning, and so on to all eternity."

THERE is no use trying to "down" the Georgia editor, for he is bound to get there. Witness the following from a State exchange: "We have taken wood, potatoes, corn, eggs, butter, onions, cab­ bage, chickens, stone, lumber, labor, sand calico, sourkraut, second-hand clothing, coon skins and bug juice, scrap iron, shoe pegs, rawhides, tan bark, office dogs, sorgum seed, jugware and wheat straw on subscription, and now a man wants to know if we would send the paper six months for a large owl. We have no precedent for refusing, never having de­ clined anything, and if we can find a man who is out of an owl, and needs one, we'll do it." The Chicago Bxpoaltlon.

A. S. WRIGHT. September 1st, 1891. Visit Evan son's" Clothing and DIY Goods Sale, it will pay you big. You are able to tell twenty men about your business in a week and write or send circulars to thirty families in the same time. The newsf*aper tells of it to thous­ ands of men every week, and keeps tell­ ing it all day for six da> s of the week to every member of thousands of families. Talking about your business to those you see or sending circulars to those whose address you know is cracking a pop-gun from your door-step; using the newspaper is firing a cannon from a hill­ top.

A FEW days ago a member of one of our churches said to the editor that he thought we should subscribe more for the support of the gospel in this place. To our reply that we annually contrib­ uted more for the churches of the place than he did, he looked surprised, but we had oUr proof read; here it is: During the past year we have published 1,364 lines advertising church fairs, sociables, entertainments, etc. At our regular rate of 7c per line this would have amounted to $95.48. We received for the same --nothing. Our job book Bays that dur- the same time we printed bills, dodgers, etc., which at our regular rates amount­ ed to $23.50; We did the work for $15.50, a donation of $8.00, all our profit, and a little more. This makes a total Bum of $103.48. We are not finding fault with this donation--not at all--but hereafter please don't taunt us with not contributing our share to the support of the two churches, for we think we do. Now don't you?--Ex. A MUSICAL and Literary Entertainment will be given in the City Hall on Friday evening of this week. The following is the programme: PART FIRST.
