' A certain writer says, "nothing Is easier than ridicule; and in nine canes out of ten where ridicule is used, it is resorted to only because it is the only weapon available. The man of intelli­ gence will use his reason In the argu­ ment with his opponent; the man of knowledge wi l l use his k n o w l e d g e ; but the man who has neither knowledge nor intelligence must resort to ridicule. It Is a poorly rumished armory which - supplies no better weapon." p meson a L. MRS NETTIE TAYLOR, of Belvldere, was calling on friends here last week. W. H.

It Is a detestable habit aud one that should ,be stopped at once. AN editor is a man whose bizness is to investigate a nuspaper. Ho writes editorUI, grinds out F poetry, inserts deaths aud weddings, sorts manuscript, keeps a waste basket, 'blows up the devil,' steals matter, fites out other people's battles, sells his paper for one dollar and fifty cents a year, takes white beans and apple-sass for pay when Ije can get it, raises a large fam­ ily, works nineteen hours out of twenty-four, noze no Sunday, gets darned bl ever body, l ives poor, dies middle-aged, and often broken-hearted, l eaves n o ruunny . i s r ewarded f o r a l i f e of toi l bi a short but free obituary puff in the opersitiou paper."--Josh Billings, SLANDER, foul mouthed and vile is hell's choicest offspring. Its mission is to curse and blight--its incentive, the lowest and most debased motives in human nature. Wjfthlu its ^llmy em­ brace it stains, crushes and destroys the whitest flowers of purity and inno­ c e n c e , a n d t a k e s a f i e n d i s h joy I n hatching their death struggles. No Uves'LE^pult'e, no ciiaracter so innocent, and no serine so sacred, that It will not t ry to poison and blight . Even t o the solemn portals of death it relentlessly pursues Its victim, and with its blood­ stained hand tears aside the shroud of murdered Innocence and secretly thrusts its cold steel Into the lifeless body. Ghoul Mice, its venomous fangs tear open the grave, and seek to leave their foul imprint upon tlie meulderl ng dust. Let the slanderer be burried beneath the indignation of outraged innocence so deeply that society wil l forever be ri 1 of his stings and insults. _Boys Take Notice. At a meet ing of the vil lage Board on Monday evening, a resolution was passed instructing the Marshals to ar­ rest all. boys found throwing snowballs a t t eams , or per sons on f oo t w i t h i n the corporate limits of the village The Board mean business, and will in­ sist that this resolutions be enforced.

KING'S EVIL Was the name formerly give^ito Scrotal* because of a superstition that it could be cured by a king's touch. The world Is wiser now, and knows that SCROFULA | can onlv be cured by a thorough puiffle** tion of' the blood. If this is neglected, the disease perpetuates its taint tnrongh generation after generation. Among na earlier symptomatic developments are Eczema, Cutaneous Eruption*, Te­ non, Boils. Carbuncles, Eryilpdai, Purulent Ulcera, Nervous and Phy­ sical Collapse, etc. If allowed to con­ tinue, Rheumatism, Scrofulous Ca­ tarrh, Kidney and Liver Diaeaaea, Tubercular Consumption, and vari­ ous other dangerous or fatal maladies, are produced by it. Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is the onlypoverfttl and ttlmnt rdtobU blood-purifying medicine. It Is so effect­ ual an alterative that it eradicates from the svstem Hereditary Scirofula, and the kindred poisons of contagious diseasea and mercury. At the same time tt en­ riches and vitalizes the blood, restoring healthful action to the vital organs and rejuvenating the entire system. This great Regenerative Medicine Is composed of the cenulne Honduras Sarsaparilla, with Yellow Dock* StU* lingia, the Iodides of Potassium and Iron, and other ingredients of great po­ tency. carefully and scientifically com­ pounded. Its formula is generally known to the medical profession, and the best whvskian# constantly prescribe AYXR'8 &.K<»p>Bii i.t as an Absolute Cure For all diseases caused by the vitisrtwti the blood. It is concentrated to the high­ est practicable degree, to beyond any other preparation for which like eAdi are claimed, and Is therefore the cheap«t, as well as the best blood purifying cine, in the world.
