We tried to get the names of them all and failed, but they deserve the highest praise for the way thvy per: formed their difficult part. “The ho_1'~a”‘0 gave 1 hay ruck ride out into the countr_1- one niUht last week, and the society young 11901119 with recruits from Fort Sheruhm. had one Monday nitrht. Just the 11e11ther for such things Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Merrill of Galeshurg, Ill., uncle and aunt of Mrs. F. C. Clark are visiting here {hr a .few days. after which they will continue their journey to Ohio to visit relatives there. The (lruggists of Wuukegun are safe as well as enterprising fellows. They guarantee their medicines'to cure or~~ kill. Thats what most medicines do when the doctors don't interfere, too much! Among the dignitaries and out of towners at the baby SllUW Friday évening were Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Chandler and Mrs. J. R. McQuiston of Chicago and Rev Mr. Ham-h of {he Bethany church. Judge Fullerton suggested to us the other day. that We ought to learn gait while perhaps he ought to take up the wheel. We opine that he would make a better cyclist than we should golfer.

The man who filled the Presby terian pulpit Sunday morning not only tilled. but he had magnetism enough to charge his congregation. The lieadle did not have to go around and wake sleepy hearers; the preacl.- er did that by his preaching. That's tl.e kind to have. “I like to hear Uncle Jireh preach." said the boy. “because he goes licketysplit." We hear of much complaint of some of our shabby sidewalks. Now that the sidewalk ordinance has been revised, amended and crystalized into permanent shape, We trust the plank walks will be put into good repair all over the city.
