The same rag can be procured at Norris' for just one half the money. If he had spent a little money in judicious advertising he might hav«- reaped the benefit of all those sales himself.

A New Swindle. An exchange tells us of another swindle that has been brought to light. Swindler No. 1 calls upon a farmer with a patent wagon tongue and informs him that having made a big thing out of it he i* on his way home with only this county for to sell. He tells the farmer that he can have it for $250 and if he wants it to write to him. In a few days patent right man No. 2 comes along. He has heard the farmer has the right of the county for the patent wagon tongue, and he made a big thing of it in Pennsylvania, he wants to buy the right of the couuty and he offers $100 and pays $10 to bind the bargain. The farmer writes to No. land sends bis note for $250. He= never hears of either of the men again, but his note comes up for collection in a neighboring town, and the farmer is out 1350. FOR the size and variety o£his stock of stoves, the excellent assortment of hie hardware, and general reliability, Jacob Bonslett is unexcelled.

In the Logan, Iow^Hfiwrrei^ of Sept. 14, we find the olijjili of John W. Stodtar, a former resident of this county and favorably known here, his falter, Samuel Stoeker, having lived hers for many years, "from which we make the following extract: " DIED,--At 8 o'clock p. M., on Thurs­ day, Sept. 7, John W. Stoeker, aged 58 years, 3 months and 5 days, after a sick ness of reveral weeks. Few men who have lived in Harrison county have been so closely identified with the progress of the county as John W. Stoeker. He did not live for himself alone, but to benefit materially all who oame in contact with him. Always a stirring, energetic man, one who made friends readily and retained them always he used every means to advance the ma­ terial interests of this county which he chose as' a home nearly tbirty-seYen years ago. He was born la Caledonia county, Ver­ mont. on June 2,1835. His father was a Methodist minister and had learned the trade of atone mason. His mother died when he was about five years old As soon as he was old enough, according to the custom of those days, he was ap­ prenticed to a miller to learn that trade, At thirteen years of age he left the miller and went to Lowell, Mass., where he worked in a woolen mill until 1858, when his father's family came there and bought a farm, on which he made his home until he was 21, when he moved to MeHenry county, 111., for the purpose of starting some woolen mills for a man named Deeds. In 1856 he came to Bu­ chanan county, and farmed one year. March, 1857, found him in Harrison county, Iowa, at Little Sioux, where he worked as a carpenter and sometimes in a sawmill. In May, 1860 he was married to Susan B. Bonney. Five children were the result of this union, three of whom are living. On Aug. 18, 1862, he volunteered in Co. C, 29th Iowa Infantry, as a private and served until September 1st, 1865, when lie was mustered out as first lieu­ tenant at Davenport. His promotion waa honestly earned by competency and bravery. For quite a long time he was the commanding officer of his company, Capt. Bacon being wounded and a pris­ oner. Nature made him a soldier. His own worthiness, his bravery on the bat­ tlefield, his competency and faithful dis­ charge of every duty with wh'ch he was entrusted made him an officer, and these qualities united with a care for his men, endeared him to every man in his com­ mand with a love which endured and found expression in the quivering lips, the voice broken with sobs and tears at his grave. He leaves a widow and three daughters to mourn the loss of a kind husband and loving father. He was buried by the (J. A. B<, Fuller Post, No. 38, in charge.

After having become somewhat ac­ quainted with my work in MeHenry, I find there are many young folks in the village, who, for various reasons, are not in our school. Many of them areemploy- ed during the day and could not attend achool if they so desired. Now, I pro­ pose to organize an evening class to meet two evenings in a week, providing there are a sufficient number who are interested enough to come and do good, honest work. I will teach book keeping, commercial arithmetic, and the forms and law of commercial paper. Other ad­ vanced work given if desired. There wil be no expense whatever beyond the cost of paper and blank books used. I shall donate my services and will continue the work during the winter providing there are those who wish it. I can give anyone a fair knowledge of the above branches if he will apply himself. Now I wish every one who would care to do any work of the kind to think of the matter and men­ tion it to others, and later on, if I think the attendance will warrant it, I wil! ap­ point a time for a meeting. I hope there will be a large number who will appre­ ciate this opportunity, as I am confident that with your assistance I can make DBcfa a school productive of good results. W. H. STRAYER.
