It has eight legs; 4 to walk on; two to shuffle together an' to tickle with. Flies are found all over Amerky, but mostly on bald heads. He are the cause of much cussin' by folks what he pest­ ers with his tickling legs. The fii can­ not be snuck up fer he has eyes in his back rite behind the shoulder blades. The fii loves to get on a baby's nose and shuffle his feet. It is fun to leave him bee on the baby's nose ef yer mother ain't eroun' to land on yer fer it. The fly is commonly called a fii, but he has another name. Pop calls him helluv- anuisance." Harvard Herald: Herbert Megran of this city has a remarkable record- as a student in the Harvard public schools. When he finished the prescribed course and graduated a year ago it was noted that during his whole school life, be­ ginning in the primary department in 1895 and finishing in the high school in 1905, he had not been absent a single day nor tardy even once during the ten years. As a souvenir of this never-be- fore record in the Harvard school the board of education presented him with a diploma, certifying to the record he had made. This diploma has just been re­ ceived and it has been duly signed by the president and secretary of the board and the superintendent of schools, so it is needless to say Herbert, Who is now attending the Illinois university, will {wise this highly.

The annual opening dinner will take place at the Riverside dining hall on Decoration Day, next Wednesday, May 30. All plans for this great event are now being perfected, and if we are not badly mistaken the opening dinner will go down in history as one of theswellest events that ever happened in McHenry; at least, the management is sparing no pains or expense in making it such. The spacious new dining hall will, on this day, be formally opened to the public. One of the most special feat­ ures of the day will be the presence of Kirt,land's Chicago six-piece orchestra, one of the finest musical organizations in the country. Thre9 members of the fatuous organization are also members of Innes' band which is now filling an engagement at the White City, Chica­ go's |1,000,000 enterprise. The program to be given by the orchestra is a most carefully selected one and will far sur­ pass anything of its kind ever heard in McHenry. Just think of it, you will listen to this sweet musio while you are eating one of the swellest dinners ever brought before you. The dinner will consist of all the deli­ cacies the season affords and an enor­ mous crowd is expected. The entire building will be in holiday attire on this day and visitors will be given the privilege of going through the remodeled "Riverside House of today." . QUARTER OF A CENTURY.

Barth Performs Ceremony. - A simple butmoet impressive wed­ ding ceremony was performed at St. Mary's Catholic church in this village at nine o'clock Tuesday morning, the bridal pair being Miss Susanna Weber and Mr. William A. Bishop, both well known and popular young people of McHenry. The last sounds of the pealing bells had not quite died away^ere the bridal pair, escorted by their attendants, were marching up the center aisle of the church to the beautiful strains of a wed­ ding march. The bride wore a gown of white, with a bridal veil, and carried a bouquet of pink and white carnations. She was attended by her twin Bisters, Barbara and Christina, the brideemaids also being attired in white and wearing pink and white carnations in their hair. The groom's attendants were his two brothers, Lewis and Fred. 1 Arriving at the altar, the pastor spoke the words that bound the two for life, after which high mass was celebrated. A wedding reception was tendered the young couple at the home of the groom's mother, which was attended by only the nearest relatives and a few intimate friends of the newly wedded pair. Many beautiful and useful presents were received during the day. The groom is the son of Mrs. Jacob Bishop, and has made McHenry his home nearly his whole life. He is a faithful and trusted employe of the Bor­ den Milk company, with which firm he has been connected for over three years. He is an upright, honest young man and has the respect of a wide circle of friends. » The bride is the eldest daughter of Mr. Nicholas Weber, who resides about a mile northeast of the river bridge on the Pistakee Bay toad. §he grew to womanhood in this vicinity, where her friends are numberless. The happy young couple will go to housekeeping at once, having already rented and furnished the E. Perkins residence on North Green street, where they will be at home to their friends hereafter. A wedding dance was given at the McHenry House hall in the evening, which was attended by a large craw* of young people. Birthday Surprise. A company of friends called upon C. Matthews last Friday evening to re­ mind him that he had just passed his fifty-sixth mile stone in life. As usual, Mr. Matthews closed his market at eight o'clock, and upon reaching the top stair leading to the living rooms over the market, he was greeted by a merry company, who had gathered there with­ out his knowing the least thing about it. If there ever was a surprised man, A. C. was certainly one last Friday evening. Arrangements were at once made for the evening's entertainment, which consisted of games1 and every­ thing that goes to make up an evening of enjoyment. At a late hour refresh­ ments were served, after which the company returned tor their respective homes wishing the host many happy re­ turns of the day. A fine rocker was left Dy the company as a token of es­ teem, as well as a remembrance of the occasion. The following were present: Messrs. and Mesdames John Kimball, Eli Brink, Frank Kimball, A. M. Brown, Bernard Harrison; Misses Bernice Kim­ ball, Frances Kimball; Mrs. E. Hunter; Messrs. John Hunter, Starr Brink and Earl Brown. P re-Decoration Day Dance. J. W.

If you had all the wealth of Rocke­ feller, the Standard Oil magnate, you could not buy a better medicine for bowel complaints than Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. The most eminent physicians can not prescribe a better preparation for colic and 'diarrhoea, both for children and adults The uniform 'success of this remedy has shown to be superior to all others. It never fails, and when reduced with water and sweetened, is pleasant to take. Every family should be supplied with it. Sold by G. W Gems or Learning:.

After fifty long years of activity in the millinery business, km. M. A. Searles has decided to close out her en­ tire stock of goods and retire from the business. Mrs. Searles started in the business when' there was'nt but one shape in hats, and during her fifty years of activity has become more thoroughly acquainted with the business than prob­ ably any other milliner now living. Her record is one which is very seldom equaled not only in her business but in any other business. During all this time she has traded with but one mil­ linery supply house in Chicago, which has aise just recenty celebrated their fiftieth anniversary. For years and years the subject of this article ooa conducted the only millinery store in McHenry and the surrounding country. Thru her fair and honest treatment she succeeded in building up a fine patron age, and right today is holding some of the same trade she had when she first opened np in McHenry, which surely speaks well for her reliability and good work. Another fact, which proves beyond any doubt her good service Is these many years, is that she had never had any trouble with anyone, her work al ways giving the highest satisfaction to her hundreds of customers. The Plain- deale congratulates Mrs. Searles upon her most splendid record. In regard to Mrs. Searles golden an­ niversary the Wauconda Leader in a recent issue says: "Mrs. Searles, for years a leading mil­ liner in this section and for many of these conducting the only store of this kind in McHenry, is going to close out her entire stock and quit business. Here is a business career to be proud of. She has always carried the beet of stock and her work was of such a degree of excel­ lence that she numbered the patrons by the number of families in the trade radius of McHenry from the time of going into business till the present time. "She has always done as she has ad­ vertised to do and now that she has de­ clared her intention to close out, patrons know that she means just what she ad­ vertises to do. Watch her ad and call once more at her store. It's fifty yean and out."
