There ain't so many wells out there and so in winter they prepafe for summer's drouth by storin' up the rainfall in each tub and cup. A native said, for quite a while he'd hauled his water seven rriile. WThen he says that I says, "Do tell, I'd think that you would dig a well." "It's just as far that way," says he, "this state is dry as dry can be. We've got fish six months old, no joke, that's never learned to swim a stroke; we have to soak our pigs until they're tight enough to -hold their swill,** t Some clouds were sailin' through the sky, so I says, "Stranger, by and bye you'll get a drop of rain by heck,"| "'That thiere old ranger stretched hisj nock and shook his head, "No use, he j says, "them clouds don't look like rain | to me; there ain't no rain will bring] us joy, them's empties back from! Illinois." When I git back to home I| ain't a-goin' to make no complaintf no matter how hard it may rain; before| I git soaked up again the rain will fall for quite a spell. I'll go and shake hands with my well and slop around awhile, you bet, until my feet are nice and wet. The floods we've had ain't been so good, but if you'd come out here you would thank Heaven for a thunder shower and stand and soak for half an hour. You think that too much rain is tough, but worse than that is not enough! is doubtless true, but still, the bachelor usually has enough change to img silk socks by the dozen pairs. A bachelor is a fellow that gets onlyhalf as much mileage as a married man out of a pair of socks. Which 0. W. KLONTZ, M. D. Physician and Surgeon (Also treating all diseases of the Eye.

I Golf is a form of work made expensive enough for a rich man to enjoy it. It is physical and mental exertion made attractive by the fact you have to dress for it in a $200,000 club house. Golf is what letter-carrying, ditchdigging, and carpet beating would be if these three tasks had to be performed on the same hot afternoon in short pants and colored socks by gouty looking gentlemen who require a different implement for every mood. Golf is the simplest looking game in the world when you decide to take it up, and' the toughest looking after you have been at it ten or twelve years. It is probably the only game a man can play as long as a quarter of a century and then discover that it was too deep for him in the first place. The game is played on carefully selected grass with little white balls and as many clubs as the player can afford. These balls cost from 75c to $2.50, and it is possible to support a family of ten people (all adults) for five months on the m6ney represented by the balls lost by some; golfers in a single afternoon. A golf course has 18 holes, 17 of which are unnecessary and put in to make the game harder. A "hole" is a tin cup in the center of a "green." A "green" is a small parcel of grass costing about $1.98 a blade and usually located between a brook,' a couple of apple trees and a lot of "unfinished excavations." The idea is to get the golf ball from a given point into each of the 18 cups in the fewest strokes and the greatest number of words. The ball must not be thrown, pushed or carried. It must be propelled entirely by about $200 worth of curious looking implements especially designed to provoke the owner. Each implement has a specific purpose and ultimately some golfers get to know what that purpose is. They are exceptions. After each hole has been completed, the golfer counts his strokes. Then' he subtracts 6 and says, "Made th$t i in 5." That's one above par. After; the final, or 18th hole, the golfer adds! up his score and stops when he has j eached 87. He then has a swim, some; refreshments from his locker, sings Sweet ^Adeline" with six for eightj ther liars, and calls it the end of a perfect day. • ] Twice; T o l d Tales Interesting Bits of News Taken From the Columns of tk* Plaindealer Fifty and Twenty-fire Years Ago Note to Husbands: If it hgg a breakfast nook, she wiH think any°house is 11 right. - Phone 181 WM.

August, 187^ We have no hestiancy in saying that Henry Miller, proprietor of the Johnsburg Marble Works, is one of the finest marble workers to be found in this section of the country, and that the monument and tombstones gotten up by him are equal to the best to be found, while his prices are one-third lower. Mr. Miller is a very fine workman and charges only living rates. Among the improvements daily going on in our midst we notice a new six-foot walk being built from the Riverside Block, running north past H. Colby's drug store.

BARBERRY FOUND IN A GREAT MANY PLACES Ninety-six common barberry bushetwere found growing on sixteen different properties in McHenry county during the last two weeks, according to the agents of the U. S. Department of Agriculture who are conducting a survey of these harmful bushes. A hedge consisting of twelve large bushes was discovered at the Orchard Beach Sanitarium in McHenry. Another clump of bushes were discovered in the Ringwood nursery. On the George J. Sayer's estate near Pistakee, twelve bushes were found growing near the poultry house. The agents will continue with a survey in rural territory in the southwest part of McHenry township and northwest part of Nunda township this week. They foot-scout all territory and no one should be alarmed to see two or three young men garbed in khaki scouting through their fields or timber, for the barberry scouts travel down every fence row and through'every wooded area. 'We have received splendid cooperation from the people in the territory we are working," said Mr. Ham, who is in charge of the work in McHenry county. "Last week we found bushes on properties where the owners were only there during the week-ends. Upon calling at these places Saturday afternoon, we found that the people knew all about their bushes. The neighbors had told them about them and given them bulletins. Consequently they were anxious to have us take out the bushes. We appreciate the splendid spirit of cooperation which we meet on every hand." H. D.
