WE are under obligations to L. Bowen, of Chicago, for a copy of the Na­ tional Bankruptcy Law, passed by the last Congress. JF GEO. SOMKRS, of Chicago, has rented rare. J. P. Going's house, on the West I Bide, and is now occupying the same with -4his family. THE "Merry-go-Round" is drawing large crowds each evening and the young folks are enjoying it highly. They will probablv remain here another week. A KANSAS editor claims the possession of a Persian lilac bush over twenty-five feet in diamater. An editor who can lilac that must be invaluable to his party in a local political campaign. / . THE McHenry Creamery Company are I now receiving about 11.000 pounds of f|' Milk daily. They have sixty-four pa- y irons, and this average is good for this \ aeason of the year. WHERE is the Ordinance in relation to test driving on the streets? There are a few smart ones who need a lesson in A|his respect. It might do them some good. -v. THE Rev J. R. Clark, of McHenry will deliver a temperance address at the M,' E.

LETTERS of incorporation have beet Issued tp the Chicago & Fox Lake Elec­ tric Railway Company, organized to build an electric line from a point in Lake County through McHenry County to the Wisconsin state line.. ON account of the drying up of the pastures there is a prospect of a milk famine in Chicago. The receipts have / .1 fallen off greatly, and it is thought that \T ~ a price of $2 per can will be paid before N^>ctober around. How many kernels are there in a head of pats? The crop this year is unnaally good and when the threshing com- fuences some great yields will be report­ ed. A farm hand has been counting and found 181 kernels in one head. Next. FARMERS are cautioned against shod­ dy clothing sharps who are operating about this vicinity. They are frauds. - The safe rule is to always buy from re- epomible dealers, at home. Never buy from strangers who drive about the country to offer "groat bargains." JOSEPH JXJSTEN has a full blood Clyde Horse, eight years old, that is one of the ^ w handsomest animals of this 'breed that y , We have seen for many a day.

Ice Cream, Cake and Lemonade will be served and to good social time can be enjoyed by all. Every­ body cot dially invited. IN our article in relation to the manu\ facture of Watches, last week, we omit, ted to state that Mr. Anners was en­ gaged for some time in repairing this class of Watches and makes each part now entirely from memory, having no pattern to work after. This proves that he is a workman of no ordinary ability. A ROCKFOUD lady made a bed tick to send to a soldier at Camp Thomas and placed it in a box similar to one contain­ ing her wedding dress, which she was •Oon to wear. By mistake the bridal robe went to Camp Thomas and the tick was stowed away at home. A telegram sent caused the garment to be sent back. AT the close of the Concert in the City Hall on Tuesday evening it was an nounced that the Lady's Quartette would give another entertainment at Riverside Hall, on Monday evening next Since that time the matter has been re­ considered and such entertainment has been POSTPONED until some future time, due notice of which will be given. ,T>R. J. L. ABT, will on or about August list, moye with his family to Chicago, where he will open an office for the prac­ tice of his profession. During his resi­ dence of four years here the Doctor has made many-warm friends,-beth-profes- sionally and otherwise, Who will much regret his decision to leave us. The best wishes of all will go with him in his new fleli.^ . THE fourth Quarterly Conference of the McHenry charge of the M. E. Church will take place at the church in West Mc-1 Henry, July 30th, at 11 A. M. Preaching by Dr. Hardin, followed by communion service at 10:30. Let every oue hear the Doctor.

LOUIS physician who is a con­ firmed old bachelor, was started out to reform the habit that prevails of dress­ ing babies in long clotheB. He says that it is necessary for the proper development of babies that they shonld have plenty of leg room in which to kick. The St. Louis doctor is no doubt right. This thing of beginning at the very start in life to deprive a free American citizen of the right to kick is in violation of the principle of republican government, and should have an end put to it at once. THE letters (<ss" are to be found at the beginning of acknowledgments and near­ ly all other legal documents, but not one in a do sen can tell what the cabalistic "ss" is for--even some lawyers can't. i"be abbreviation is a contraction of the Latin word "scilicet," which isalsoacon- traction, having originally been written as scirelicate, neither of which, you will notice, has more than one (,s." The word entire or its abbreviated state is equivalent to the old English "to-wit," still widely used, the design of both being simply to call attention to what fol­ low.--Ex.. f As will be seen by his card on the first stage, Dr. David G. Wells, late of Chicago, has succeeded Dr. J. L. Abt in the prac­ tice of medicine In this village, Dr. Abt having decided to move to Chicago where he will have a wider field. Dr. Wells has had a large experience in practice, both in Chicago and Michigan, and comes highly recommended ss an able physician and an upright, honorable gentleman. He is a very pleasant gentleman to meet, and we predict will build up a lucrative practice here. His office a£id residence will be in the same rooms occupied by Dr. Abt, in the Nichols' Block, over the PLAINDEALER offioe. v - ~ . W . C . T . U . I n s t i t u t e . Mrs. Mary E.

Mr. Compton is an old settler of Lake and McHenry Counties, and is an honored and respected citizen, and his many friends here will be glad to know that he is well and enjoying life to its fullest extent. He is a staunch friend of the PtAINDEALER and remembers us by sending a list of six new subscribers to be added to our list, for which he will accept our thanks. FIRST ANNUAL PICNIC. St. Patrick Court No. 746, C. O. F., will hold its first Grand Annual Picnic in Gage's Driving Park, on Saturday, Aug. 6th. k*' fine Dancing Pavilion will be erected and good music furnished for the occasion. Dancing will continue during the afternoon and evening. Refreshments will be served on the grounds, and games, races, and contests will furnish amuse­ ment for those who attend. The com­ mittee who have the Picnic in charge concluded that a Basket Picnic would be much more popular than a dinner served by the Court, so all are invited to come and bring their baskets, and spend, a day of enjoyment and recreation. For further particulars see bills. COM. A The Garden Olty Quartet e made no mistake %hen we said that a rich musical treat was in store for our citizens when the Garden City Ladies /Quartette made their appearance at the City Hall, in this village. On Tues­ day evening the house was filled and we do not exagerate when we w»y that the nntertainment has not been sur­ passed by any that has ever been given here. To attempt* to describe it and do it justice would be impossible. It must be heard to be appreciated. The entire audience was held spell bound for nearly two hours, and they were repeatedly recalled by the de? lighted audience. As we said before it was a grand musical entertainment, and should they ever visit this place again it would be necessary to procure a larger HaU to accomodate those who would be sure to attend. A FLOUR merchant at Edgar, 111., let the story get out that while he was stooping over his flour bin a $150 dia­ mond ring had slipped off his finger into the flour. He appeared to be greatly exercised over the loss, got a notice in the local papers, but finally announced with a sigh that he would have to give it up; that the ring was in the flour somewhere; that he supposed it would turn up in a sack of flour, but he had no idea which one. Well, you * ought to have seen the boom that guileless man fiad in the flour trade. For .the next week be had to hire extra help to fill sacks ourof th it bin. One man who never bought a sack of flour from him before came in and laid up in a winter's supply. And the smooth merchant whistled softly as he filled the sackB and winked the othor eye.--fixchauge. A SOLDIER in Camp at Chickmauga gives some timely advice about letter writing to soldiers. "Allow me" he writes, "to advise the people at home who h&ve friends in the army to write often but do not whine; do not tell them how bad you want them to come, they cannot come; do not tell them of your troubles, they have troubles of tfceir own ; do not tell them of the good thingH you have to eat, it does not assist them in digesting army rations; don't enlarge on the parties, dinners or picnics you at­ tend. Write them cheerful letters. Tell them how much you love them fSr being brave men--do not pity them, but be brave yourselves and do everything in your power to dispel homesickness and your boys will make soldiers you may be proud of." * Devil's Lake, A strictly first class excursion to thi* wonderful and mysterious Lake Thurs­ day, August 4.

The Teltchers' Annual Institute will be held in the School House, Woodstock, Illinois, August, 15-19. The First session will be held in the High School Room at 8:30 A. M., Mon­ day, August 15th. The Institute will be divided into sec­ tions and C. W. Hart will have charge of a special section in the sciences of Bo­ tany, Zoology and Physics. All parties who contemplate teaching in the county next year, are expect­ ed to attend this institute. When di­ rectors apply to this office for teachers, those teachers who attend this and other educational meetings will be given the preference. The institute is an excellent opportun­ ity for professional training. Young teachers, and students who are planing to teach should by all means attend. A teacher who does not take interest enough in his work to attend a meeting of this kind, will not take interest enough in his school to make it prof­ itable for directors to hire him. Direc­ tors cannot afford to waste public money on persons who do not improve every opportunity to fit them for their work. In the Renewal of Certificates the num­ ber of days attendance at the institute will receive much consideration. The school law allows teachers three days in one term and five days in any school year to attend Institutes without loss of time. All schools in McHenry County should be closed during Institute week in order that every teacher may have its advantages. School Directors. Since school direc­ tors are a prominent factor in educa­ tional forces of a county, they are cordi­ ally invited to attend any or all sessions of the Institute. Directors should make it a point to attend educational meet­ ings to become better acquainted with the teachers and observe what teachers are interested in their work. We hope to see many directors and friends of education at this Institute. Board. Good accomodations may be had at reasonable rates in the Hotel and private families." W. E.

There is one chance in a person's life­ time which, if taken advantage of, leads to prosperity and happiness.
