WE would call especial attention to the advertisement, to be found in another column, headed the "Best Plane in the World." This Plane is manufactured by the Gage Tool Co., at Vineland, New Jersey, and is univesrally endorsed by carpenters to be the best working Tool on the market. It is for sale by W. P.

Airewlaw in force July 1, 1889, com- pels the father or guardian of a minor to come in person with the applicant before the County Clerk t# secure a marriage license, or if the parent can't come, then a written consent must be furnished, witnessed by two witnesses, and one of those witnesses must come with the ap plicant before the County Clerk and make oath to the fai:t that the parent signed said permission. Minors desiring to secure a licqpse to marry will save trouble and expense by complying. A newly elected justice of the peace who holds fort||. not a thousand miles from Monmouth delivered the following chargo to a jury the other day: "Gentlemen of the jury, charging a jury is a new busi ness with me, as this is my first case. You, as well as myself have heard all the evidence in the case. Ton have also heard what the learned counsel havesaid. If you believe what the counsel for the plaintiff has told you, your verdict will be for the plaintiff; but if, on the other hand, you believe what the defendant's counsel has told you then you will gire a verdict for the defendant. But if you are like me and don't believe what either of them said, then I'll be d---d if I know what you will do. Constable, take charge of the jury." THE people in buying merchandise shruld patronise merchants in their own town. Men who have established a place of business and who help pay the taxes. It is not safe to buy of the ped dlers, for if the article purchased proves not as represented, you have no redress. With a reliable merchant you have. When traveling doctors come along and put up in the parlor of a hotel, and flood, the country with advertisements, representing that t!iey can cure every disease that flesh is heir to, charge fabu lous prices for their great skill and rare wonderful medicines, go hot after them, even though you should read a few testimonials from a few deceived people i a the community. Sugar works rapidly in catching flies. It works well in pro curing testimonials. Patronize your home physicians, men you can rely on, and who have vastly greater knowledge than these traveling quacks. This rule will&pply to all lines of business, and those merchants who give you credit when your finances are low, are the men you should patronise when yon have the cash.

It has proved the most gigantic success Of all the summer pieces that have ever been produced at that theatre, and the greatest financial and artistic sue cess that Chicago has eyer^ kuowit. It has proved to the management one thing: That the more lavish and elabo rate the expenditure, the more generous the patronage on the part of the public. "Bluebeard Jr." cost over $60,000 for its production, a sum of money that would start ten of the leading attractions in the country. Constant changes are being made and new features introduced, thus keeping up continuous interest. One of the moKt. novel features that has ever been seen on the stage will go in from next Sunday night. It is a procession and dance of children.. There are over 40 thoroughly trained children init. They represent the familiar stories of juvenile literature, such as "Robinson Crusoe and his man Friday," "Puss in Boots," "Jack the Giant Killer." "Little Red Riding Hood and her Grandmother," "Aladdin and the Magician," "AliJJaba and his Donkey," "The Babes in the Wood," "The Old Women who Lived in a Shoe," "Cinderella and the Prince," with their Flunkies, Ponies, *etc. This will undoubtedly prove one of the great est featunos for children ever sseo on the stage. During the last ten days a great many features in the way of musk! and danciughave been introduced. As the piece is given, one may see the perform ance every week and find something new and interesting in it. o Pair Loosis.

We want povelties, and old relics. Will each one send something for the Fair? Will each one commence now and boom the Fair? Discuss it with your neighbor. A. S. WRIGHT, Sec. snsak Xackin's Pardon. A great u>au people are criticising Gov ernor Fifer for pardoning Joe Mackin. Those who do so should bear to n)jnd that Mackin was convicted of perjury instead of ballot box stuffing. His pur>* ishment was more severe than it could have been if he had been convicted of elec tion frauds. They should also remember that Mackin was simply the tool of the leaders of the Democratic party in this state and that they were playing for a United States Senator. While Mackin was serving in the "pen" those who in spired him and who were to reap the ben efit of his crime were posing as reformers; that the Democrats in- the legislature tried their "level best" to hold on to the fruits of his "fine work." They should also reujember that the Democratic party of several states by just such methods keep control and send 40 congressman from Republican dis tricts in the south and the Democrats of the north enter no prptest against the great crime. They should also remember that judges and prosecutors and prominent men of all parties in Cook county urged the gov ernor to grant the pardon. While we think the crime of Mackin was one which deserves much severer punishment than our lenient laws impose, the governor only yielded to a general demand for the pardon of Mackin, made by those who did not regard him as the actual criminal t h a t d e s e r v e d t h e p u n i s h m e n t , W , Mathews in Urbanu Herald, itKKcroRr. ft A.
