Ask your grocer for JL As every day passes, most every wee child asks questions galore that near drive mother wild. The what and the where and the whyfore of things, are words to the singsong that every kid sings. You mustn't do that and you must not do this are things a child's told so he won't go amiss. You're aiming to help him, and hope to get by, but always are stopped when the youngster asks "Why?" Too often all parents lay rules down offhand that minds of the wee folks can ne'er understand. 'Tis well to explain them. Tis well to be stern. For, knowing the whys, is the way children learn. When talking things over and making rules clear, you're helping the child to go right without fear.

Sary Jane says the trouble is, mine didn't git the care like his; he plowed his soil and harrowed it until the soil was fine and fit, he mixed up some formaldehyde and soaked the seed, and when it dried he sowed it even with a drill, and so it grew and grew, until the field was covered thick and green, the finest field you ever seen. Sary Jane says, "I tried all fall to git you started up so'a you'd haul manure and wheat and get a yield, the trouble is, you loaf around and will not cultivate your jrround. > When Sary Jane gits a spell I just keep still and let her yell, it ain't no use to argue with these women gii sore at their men.

For our Thanksgiving chicken we are indebted tt> our townsman, F. A. Hebard, for which he will please accept our thanks. We learn that a man by the name of Darrell, who resides near Wauconda, committed suicide on Monday by taking a dose of arsenic. He was a bachelor and about 45 years of age. No cause is assigned for the rash act. Not within the memory of man were the roads known to be so bad at this time of year as_ now. It is almost impossible to get along with a team and an empty wagon, and with a load it is utterly impossible. And still it rains with no prospect of letting up. With this state of things of course trade of all kinds is almost at a stand still, and should it continue we shall soon be cut off entirely from the outside world.
