THE numerous Picnics failed to' bring the much needed rain and it looks now as though our County Fair would break the record and also go dry. O. E. CHURCHILL, Secretary of the L$ke County Agricultural Society, will accept thanks for a complimentary to. the com­ ing Fair. REMEMBER Lamphere's Bus leaves the Riverside House every morning at 7:30 for the Woodstock Fair. Secure your seats the night before. A CORRESPONDENT propounds this query. If a bicycle has equal rights with a horse in the road, why does not a hofrse have equal rights with a bicycle on the sidewalk? EVERYBODY, his wife, sisters, cousins and aunts, will attend the Fair at Wood­ stock this week. If we could only have a little rain how much mors pleasant it wpuld be.___ ' .

The birds nested early, owing to warm' weather, and the rains were notsufficient- . ly heavy to flood out the pests. The result is that nearly every hen is now fol­ lowed about by a full brood of young, which will be big and strong winged when the shooting seasons opens September 15.

As many who could not be attended to last week are desirous of seeing the doctor before he leaves for other points where he hi* reg­ ular appointments, he has arranged to afford this opportunity. The number of hie patients in this vicinity is constantly increasing, which is, in itself, an evidence of his ability and skill.

He has been a successful farmer graduated at law school, tried twenty- iour cases without losing one, has prac­ ticed medicine, and for a number of years was a book-keeper for a large trust.

Salt is a necessity, sugar a lux­ ury. Vicious men are saltpeter, stern men are rock salt, nice men are table salt.

M., for the purposeot auditing bills against said town. C. H. GRANGER, Town Clerk. " THERE seems to be need for a visit of the fish commissioner to Aurora. For some reason the Ssh in Fox river above Aurora are dying by the hundred. Be­ tween Batavia and North Aurora es­ pecially the banks of the river are lined with dead fish, more than the fishermen could catch in five years. The cause of the phenomenon is not known. Some think the glucose factory at Geneva is pouring poisonous matter into the river. The Batavia paper mill may be to blame." Bo «va tfe»E%la Coarkto ̂ ̂ x > DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS. Democratic voters of the Town of McHenry are requested to meet in town Caucus, at the C$y Hall, in the village of of McHenry, on Saturday, 3ept. 1,1894, at 4 o'clock p.

PER ORDER TOWN COMMITTEE. A Full Hotua. Sir. Howe's lecture, at Volo, last Sun­ day evening, was listened to by a large and appreciative audience. The Doctor held his audience spellbound for over an hour while he wielded his eloquence in favor of progressive Christianity. He will lecture again at the same place next Sunday evening on Christianity vs. In­ fidelity. A crowded house and aa elo­ quent address* is anticipated. The Bloomington Leader says a new variety of swindler is at large in the land. Be represents himself as a traveling agent for a large printing concern, and agrees to do work for less than the cost of the paper used in the job. After re­ ceiving the order, which of course mufit be signed, not for publication, buit' a% a means of identification, he proceed^ t6 make the necessary changes so that the order makes a note. This indisposes of to some bank and in dne time it reaches the maker. • ft r" •?*"" H. MILLER & SON, dealers in Marble and Granite Monuments, in this village, are constantly building up a commenda­ ble trade in this and Lake counties. They have now on hand some very handsome Monuments, which it will pay you to call at their shop and inspect. AI1 who have had dealings with Messrs. Miller & Son have found them to be gentlemen of the strictest integrity who always do pre­ cisely as they agree, and any orders left with them are sure to come out just as ordered. We advise onr readers who may be in need of anything in their line to consult them before placing their orders elsewhere. ALL newspaper men know that the untold stories are the most profoundly interesting, just as the unsung- songs are ott-times the sweetest. T]|§re is hardly a journalist alive who does not know enough about things of which he never speaks professionally to light fires of tattle which could never be quenched Tetthe splendid and inspiring fact re­ mains that very few of such newspaper men ever show themselves unworthy of confidence. Politicians know this par­ ticularly well, and when they are ac­ quainted with the man, talkunresevedly. At the end of the interview that sort of a newspaper man always asks. "How much of this shall I print?" THESE are the times that try the soul . . . . tZ?; ?tZ SW.. the mail some glowing,' generous offer from some large-hearted manufacturer of windmills, oil stoves, threshing ma­ chines, dictionary holders, and a score of other handy things, without which it is thought the life of the quill-driver will forever remain a hollow mockery and an aching void. Invariably Mr. Manu­ facturer wants ye printer man to insert a nice big adv. in his paper. Then if the man of ink will send to the man of gall 'steen dollars, he will secure for himself and heirs forever the inalienable right to do as he .pleases with this wonderful anti- eiiptitfal, oentrifugal, and doubl»-action, spring-bar, never-get-out-of-repair ma­ chine. We've had lots of fun with these fellows, one time and another,and we ex­ pect a few barrels of the same commod­ ity before snow flies.--Ex.

Through the columns of the PLAIN- DEALER I wish to kiudly thank the ones wh<f helped me through the sickness and death of my little daughter. To my neighbors I will say that sickness and death sooner or later comes to all, and in that time of need may yon never suf­ fer for the want of care and sympathy is the wish of MRS. EVA QUIQLEY.

MATHIEU, the famous Juggler, who has been with the Kickapoo Medicine Company here the past two weeks, has few equals in his line, as was shown by a test experiment here a few days since. A good many thought that in doing hiB Cigar Box act that he had boxes specially prepared for that purpose, and to prove to them that they were wrong he went into Barbian Brothers Cigar Store, took twelve empty boxes from their shelves and performed the act as easily as he had done with his own. His perform­ ance is indeed wonderful. He is filling an engagement this week and next at the Grotto Music Hall, Chicago. Jttilet Vxcurslon- Excursion to the prison city Tuesday, Sept. 11.

O., met at Mrs. Dodge's on Wednesday evening, to initiate four new members. Refreshments were served and a pleasant evening pass­ ed. The H. F. B. O. is a fraternal insu­ rance society, with a disability benefit and one which any person in need of life assurance should investigate. I have heard a great many say of late "I would like to belong to a society in which 1 might draw part of my policy in case of losing a hand, foot, eye, or of becoming totally disabled." The H. F. B. O. is just the society you should join. Read what Dr. Talmage says of it. On Thursday of last week Frank Fay, one of Ringwood's successful Teachers, and Miss Mary E.
