LITTLTE pigs in el6ver is the latest puz­ zle over which the world will soon go crazy. It's a sort of 15 block puzzle, calculated to haunt a man waking or sleeping, and when solved drive him crazy with delight. THE Ringwood Dramatic Company have advertised an entertinment, to take place at Band Hall, in that village, on Friday and Saturday • evening of this week, April 1.2th and 13th, at which time they will present the Three Act Temper- anca Drama, entitled " Out in the Street," and the Farce-Comedy, in Three Acts, entitled "Cupid's Capers." The Ring- wood Dramatic Company have an envia­ ble reputation as ft/ first class amateur organization, and are sure of drawing a full house whenever they announce a Play. For full particulars see programs. SOME men try advertising as the In­ dian tried feathers. He took onefeather, laid it on a board and slept on it all night. In the morning he remarked, "White man say feathery heap soft,-" white man d--m fool." Some business men invest a quarter or flf^y cents in advertising, and then because they do not realize a great increase in business they declare that advertising does not jf pay. A man should not expect returns so disproportioned to his investment. Every little advertisement is doubtless worth all it costs, but a twenty-five cent local cannot be expected to revolutionize J business and turn trade out of its aeous-j tomed channels.

Granger Nunda, ...John Gracy Algonquin, W. P. Thompson IT is not work but worry that kills Worry bestows a score of wrinkles where work plows one; worry brings on a hun­ dred gray hairs where work silvers one. It is not steady running that renders a watch unreliable, but the minute parti­ cles of dust that come between the bear­ ing surfaces. Work does not wrack a bit of mechanism, but friction does. And worry is the friction of life. Work is a Saul that may have slain his hundreds, but worry is a David that numbers his victims by tens of thousands. In a re­ view of one's acquaintance, it can be noted at any time that the worker; not the worrier, attains success. The latter dies before he succeeds, and his mantle of worry rests upon his weaker survivors, his wife and his children. The worker plods on, does the best he can and per­ mits some one else to do the worrying. He will live to a good old age and never figure as the corpse in an item headed "Suicide." Beware of the potent demon, worry! Proceedings of the Board of flttltiw, McllKKa?, April, lat, 1889, , Board met pursuant to adjournment. Present, Howard.

A. HOWARD, Pre*. J. VAUAB-VKK. Clerk. AL.GOM&UIN. i A'S 1 • V" Wednesday h'< THERE was an old preacher who told*, some boys of the Bible lesson he was go­ ing to read in the morning. The boys finding the place, glued together the con­ necting pages. The next morning he read on the bottom of one page': "When ^ Noah was one hundred and twenty years old, he took unto himself a wife who was' •then turning the page--"140 cubits long, 40 cubits wide, built of gopher wood and covered with pitch inside and out." He was naturally puzzled at this. He read it again, verified it, and then said: "My friends this is the first time I ever met with this in the Bible, but I ac­ cept it as an evidence of the assertion that we are fearfully and wonderfully made." THE Comedy of " The Heroic Dutch­ man," by the McHenry Dramatic Club, at Riverside Hall, on Thursday and Fri­ day evenings of last week, was a success in every particular. The house was well filled each evening and all went away more than ever satisfied that McHenry has home talent of which she has just cause to feel proud, and an amateur Dramatic Club that is second to none in this section and far ahead of many trav­ eling organizations. Time and space will not allow us to particularize, but we must say that Frank C. Going, as Sank, fairly outdone himself. He is a natural, easy actor, and has a wealth of fun at his tongues end at all times. His Banjo act brought down the house, and he was obliged to repeat it several times before the crowd would be satisfied. The re­ ceipts of the two evenings was about $65, and the Club are feeling good Over their success. EASTER PARTY. At the McHenry House, McHenry, IB. Monday evening, April 22d, 1889.

THE strong attachment of trabarrfoer* to a well-conducted newspaper is fully confirmed by all publishers. So long as a paper pursues a just, honorable and judicious course, meeting .the wants of its customers in all respects, the ties of friendship between the subscribers and the paper are as hard to break by an outside third party as the link which binds old fridnds in business or social life. Occasional defects and errors in a newspaper are overlooked by those who have become attached to it through its perusal for years. They sometimes be­ come disatisfied with it on account of something which has slipped into its columns, and may stop taking it; but the abscence of the familiar sheet at their homes and offices for a few weeks becomes an iqpupportable privation, and they hasten to take it again, and possibly apologize for having stopped it. No friendship on earth is more constant than that contracted by the reader for a journal which makes an honest and earnest effort to merit its continued support.--Ex. • i" niil̂ r .. ̂ Not so"Emilo. They could not get^ im to speak French. When spoken to Sii that tongue he never failed to reply ?!n English. The only exception to this rule was in his prayers, which had been taught him in French when he was a baby, and which his mother supervised nightly; but even his prayers did ilot long re­ main an exception, for by and by he began to attend the public school, and at the same time a Catholic Sunday school, where pupils and teachers, be­ ing mainly of Irish descent, spoke only English. At the end of his second attendance at Sunday school he had mastered his prayers in English, and that very night astonished and shocked his mother by refusing to say them in French. "It is no use, mother," he said, in an­ swer to her expostulations, "I don't be­ lieve God knows anything about French, for if He' did, somebody in this grea' big country would talk it. I don't want] to be a Frenchman; I want to be a Yankee." "Ah!" exclaimed his mother. "It is lis the priest used to say; we lose our language and ourselves by coming here!"

Cowlin, of Woodstock is the right man for you to see or write to if you have any claim against Uncle Sam. Be on your guard. Comrades, beware of false and miss leading circulars or let­ ters which may reach you from foreign pension Attorneys. They don't know anything about your particular case as they inform you they do. When such statements are made you may rest as­ sured the parties making them are frauds of the worst kind. EDITOR PLAINDKALER H. B.

Mothers who have the care and draught of nursing infants need the aid of strength­ ening tonic to make up the nourishment required for the growth of thechild. Ale, porter, and loger beer have often been r _ recommended. Of late, since physicians have become aware that the Port Wine • 'i produced by Alfred Speer* of Passaic, N. y ® J., is strictly pure, they have prescribed • it instead of ale or porter, as being more ^ blood making. This wine is principally f sought for by mothers who have nursing infants at the breast, the best supplying medium to be found. The wine makes good blood. Druggists generally keep it, and sell it for a dollar a bottle.--Ifaqwrer. •I CONSUMPTION CURED.
