Boley is a graduate of and has his diplo­ ma from the Zymotechnical Institute, the brewery school of Chicago. The proprietors of the McHenry brewery hereby give notice to their kind friends in Mchenry and Lake counties, or any other part of the country, to return all empt}' beer kegs, f, £ and i sizes, to the brewery for repairs, as they have purchased all such kegs of Grot & Dam- gard and claim them as their property. Thanking our kind friends for past favors and trusting to receive their fut­ ure patronage. Yours very truly, THE MCHENRY BREWERY. A Bit of Pare Sentiment. Alice Brown's "Grief Deferred" in the March McClure's is a delicious bit of pore sentiment. It is the story of a wo-, man who refuses to give way to the sor­ row of a youthful love affair, putting off her grief from day to day until she be- oomes an old lady, when thru a combi­ nation of circumstances she finds that she need never give way to it. "I've had more happiness than most folks have in their whole lives," she says at th&end, "I've had all there is." Side >ide with this main theme, runs er love story of youth. Clears the Complexion. riuo Laxative Fruit Syrup stimulates piver and thoroughly cleanses the am and clears the complexion of Dies and blotches. It is the best lax- for women and children as it is and pleasant and does not gripe or ten.

Florence Welch of Holcombyille has been enrolled in the grammar depart­ ment, eighth grade. Miss Kawer reports a very pleasant and restful vacation with home folks and Chicago friends. The , junior officers as chronicled in last issue should have read: -'Louise Evanson, president." Tbe members of the senior Glass are having some warm discussions. And why not?--heat is the subject.

Come out,*and cheer our boys on to victory. Itwill be a hot­ ly contested game. After vacation we come back feeling like the two college boys. The first had learned nothing; the second had forgotten everything. Quite a number of our boys nand girls were visiting our sister schools during the week. All report: "McHenry is good enough for mp." We regret to lose Mi A Pearl Sayler from our senior , class, within three months of graduation. She goes with her parents, who have moved to Elgin. Charlie Malscb, son of John Malsch, who, with his family, has moved from Ringwood to West Waukegan street, has been enrolled in tha fifth grade, room 3. v 1 On account of the regular annual move we have dropped from our roll Helen Benson, Lucy Benson, Florence, Evelyn and Olive Sayler, Royal Harrison and Clarence Dates. The music department, under the su pervision of Miss Annie C. Jewett, is thoroughly uniting all grades of pupils in one concentrated effort. No other school exercise carries with it so much of the moral power of education. No active work has been done in the way of practice for field meet The boys are thinking and planning, com­ paring ability ani imagination. Boys, ability coants, and can only be acquired by early, constant and continual prac­ tice. In passing turn the first room, we noticed the following quotation on feb* board: : /; "Politeness is to do and sayi The kindest thing in the kindest way." There is a great lesson in this, and from the "Excuse me" and "Thank you" we hear from the little fellows we are in­ clined to think they are learning it well That is right, children* Am the twig, so will be the tree. Our library, tho not stocked with the latest books, contains some very val­ uable and helpful books for both' old young. We are glad to see the boys and girls of the grades making good use of them, yet deplore to find the students of the high Bchool lessening somewhat in their desire for good reading. Re­ member, "Nothing can take the place of good books." ' 'Some are to be tasted, others to be swallowed and some few to be chewed and digested." Now is the great memory period. Take advantage of it and enjoy intercourse with super­ ior minds. In the best, books great men talk to you and give you their most precious thoughts and pour their souls into yours.' A WOTLD TO THE BOYS. If you have anything to do, do itat once. Don't sit down in the rocking chair and lose three-quarters of an hour in dreading tbe job. Be sure that it will seem ten times harder than it did at first. Keep this motto. Be on time in small things as well as great. The boy who is behind time at breakfast and at school will be sure to get "left" in the important things of life. If you have a chronic habit of dreading and putting off things, make a great effort to cure yourself. Brace up! Make up your mind that you will have some backbone. Don't be a limp, .jelly-fish i kind of a person. Depend upon it, that life is very much as you make it. The first thing to decide is, What are you going to make it? The next thing to do is to take off your coat and go to work. Make yourself necessary some­ where. There are thousands of boys and young men who wouldn't be missed if they would drop out of it tomorrow. Don't be one of this sort. Be a power in your own little world, and then, de­ pend upon it, the big world will hear from you.--Standard. TROLLEY LINE TO LAKES, Yta Harvard, Fox Lake, XcHenry and •V'- • Crystal Lake. wattkegan Gazette: If tbe Tiratw of the Chicago Metropolitan Elevated Rail­ road Co. and certain interurban men are carried out electric cars will be run­ ning between Chicago and Lake Geneva, Wis,, over the Metropolitan structure before long; The elevated road com­ pany has asked for a permit to extend its Humboldt Park branch to the oity limits at Seventy-second avenue. The plan is to connect there with a project­ ed interurban line which will extend throngh McHenry and Harvard, Fox Lake and Crystal Lake. From Harvard to Lake Geneva an electric line is al­ ready in operation. Transportation--quick, direct, and cheap--is promised to three millions of residents in the territory southeast, south and southwest of Chicago by the construction of one of the largest inter urban traction systems in the world Entrance to Chicago is to be by an ele vated structure built over the Lake Shore an^i plans have been perfected and the corporation which will build the lines'will be organized within a few days in New Jersey. Access to Chicago from all points in northern Indiana and northern Illinois with the possible extension of the bys tem to Indianapolis and St. Louis, in contemplated. In addition, a system oi electric lines interlacing tbe whole of this big territory and furnishing con nections with every part is projected. Behind the undertaking is said to be large capital.

F Yoakum, of the Frisco railroad system, and representatives of Robert Mather, of the Rock Island holding company William S. Reed of Chicago, who is president of three of the traction com panies represented in the deal, also is interested in the proposed corporation and may be head of the new corpora tion.

A benefit entertainment for the Pha- len family is being arranged for by the citizens of McHenry and will be held at the Central opera house next Saturday evening, March 10. The participants in the evening's pro­ gram will be, with but a few except tions, local people, who are now in progress of rehearsing for the event. The program, as may be seen below, is one of the best ever attempted by our citizens, and it is up to the public to do its share by attending. It is unnecessary to state the reason for this entertainment, as every mi woman and child in McHenry and the surrounding country are aware of the great misfortune that befell this esti­ mable family only a short two weeks ago, when the father was so suddenly taken from his family, being one of the victims in the dynamite explosion.. The OUR WEEKLY PICK-UPS ITEMS! PICKED UP ABOUT TOWN DURING THE WEEK. E. M. Owen is repairing and patting in shape the store lately occupied .by J Story, opposite the mill.

When the weather is favorable the work will be pushed rapidly. McHenry has about fifty marriageable young ladies, moet of whom are hand­ some, sprightly and intelligent; besides, we have about fifty more approaching that state, but a little under sweet six­ teen.

They bad decided to buy the Thompson place last fall but changed their minds later and decided to buy nearer their old home south of McHen­ ry. Mr. and Mrs. Ward have made many friends dnring their stay here. Girls, God bless 'em, have their pe­ culiarities. When they are little they won't even go into tbe parlor at night without a light, because there might be a man in there. When they grow older they won't have a light, because there is a man in there four or five nights a week Queer, isn't it? Waukegan Gazette: Frederick Clark, of Grayslake, son of James Clark, was fonnd insane and sent to Elgin. He is 17 years of age. Recently his father sent him to town to buy some boots and be spent all the money playing pool and then ran op a bill of $30 in pool and bil­ liards which his father was obliged to North-Eastern Journal: At the dairy show in Chicago last week the Wieland exhibit of market milk took first prize for being tbe best milk produced in the state of Illinois. The same milk was also third in the United States, being t)eaten by one dairy in Maine and one in Pennsylvania. When we consider that hundreds of samples from all parts of the world were on exhibition, we have reason to be surprised that Conrtland Hastings' dairy should stand so high. Mr. Hastings tells us the milk was taken from, not one, but all his fine cows. Indeed, one of tbe requisites was mixed milk. Cleanliness was another. As marked by points the milk stood 98, en­ titling the Wieland Dairy company to a diploma. Rah! for the Wieland Dairy Co., Rahl for Court Hastings and Rah! for Spring Grove that beats the world! A Fine Lot of Hogs. Last week A. C. Matthews purchased of Jos. H. Justen, who resides near Ringwood, a bunch of eighty porkers weighing 32,250 pounds, or an average of a trifle over 278 pounds each. The hogs were about ten months old and brought their owner tbe neat snm of $1,885. They were shipped to tbe Ker- ber Packing Co. at Elgin, for which firm Mr. Matthews is agent. Mr. Jns- ten turns out an exceptionally fine lot of porkers each year, but this iui ut»k0 all previous records. If yon are a candidate for a township or a village office why not let the people know of it thru the columns of The Plaindealer? Oome, gentlemen, speak family, by the loss of Mr. Phalen, are left almost penniless and everyone cap­ able of doing so should turn out next Saturday evening, thereby helping one of the moet worthy causes we were ever called upon to respond to. The expense of bringing forth this entertainment is especially free from cost, everyone taking part having only too willingly donated his or her servicee. The use of the opera house has been granted by the Gilbert Bros. Co. with­ out charge, while The Plaindealer Co. donates all printing and advertising. As the Phalens were not employed at the canning factory, the company pro­ moters do not feel obliged to settle the doctors' and funeral bills, as they have done, and are doing, with thoee of the employes who were killed or injured, j The company promoters have shown that they are willing to do what is hon­ est and right. Now, why should not we, as citizens of McHenry, do our part for the family which is sadly in need of assistance? If you feel that yon will be nnable to attend the entertainment, liny a ticket, anyway. Tickets are now on sale at G. W. Besley's and N. H. Petesch's drug stores.
