IT is asserted that there is jpnors joy in a printing office over one sinner who pays in advance and abuses the editor on every occasion, than over the ninety and nine who borrow the paper and sing bis praises without contributing a cent to keep him out of the poor house Blessed are the meek, for they shall in­ herit the earth, and obtain the material for fencing it in on time. ; ' NEWSPAPER men are blamed with a Tot of things they can't help, such as partial­ ity in mentioning visitors, publishing news about some folks and leaving out others, etc. This is undoubtedly true, but the newspaper man simply prints news he can find out.

I JOHN EVANSON and James Laughlin, yof this village, have purchased the State Line Factory, near Harvard, and will immediately put in a new boiler, new machinery, make a general improvement and put the factory in first class shape throughout. Mr. Evanson has been connoted with several factories in this county for the past fifteen years, and is well and favorably known to the trade. Mn Caughliu is a practical butter maker, understanding the business in all its branches, and we congratulate the pa­ trons tit the State Line Factory that it has fallen into such good and reliable hands. The patrons can rest aaepred of a square and honest deal. A MAN steals a horse, sells it to an innocent party,- who buy# it in good faith. The owner comes, takes away his horse and the man who has bought it is a loser to the extent of the purchase price. A knave procures a farmer's signature to a paper purporting to be an agency con­ tract for the sale of some machine. By tearing off a part of it the remainder with the signature becomes a promissory note. Rascal number one sells it to ras­ cal number two and the latter sues to re­ cover. The courts decide that the farmer must pay the "innocent" holder of the fraud tainted paper. Is there anything of joint in these cases? It iooks so. The choir of the Universalist church have secured a date from Prof. A. M. Straub and Dr. F. M.

V EDWARD SUTTON was exhibiting a colt on our sireets to-day that is something to brag of. He was sired by the Percher- on stallion "San Salvator," is only five months old and weighs 700 pounds. His dam is a grade and weighs about 1,300. This is only one of many colts from "Sau Salvator" to be seen in this section, as be is proving himself one of the best producers of draft horses ever in this county. His colts are not only large but clean limbed and rangy. Mr. Sutton challenges any one to produce five colts of the same age that will beat five he can produce from this horse. Lovers of fine horses should call and see this colt.

It was a craft of unusual size, with flat bottom, its sides armed with iron plates fastened into great beams of wood. When finished the builders thought it a floating castle, impregnable to the artillery and mis­ siles of those days, which should crush all opposition, as it contained a great number of men, some of whom were placed like sharpshooters in the tops of the masts, and the rest protected by the bulwarks. They were so confident that the^raft would rout the enemy that they csijled It "Finis Belli," thinking it^no doubt" would put an end to the war. Unfor­ tunately, however, the early ironclad j/ACivt/U «* iiiUUiti, stuck upon a bank of the Scheldt after a very short and unhappy career. The Spaniards were greatly amused with the untimely end of the vessel, while the brave burghers of Ant werp changed the name from "Finis Belli" to "Per- dito Expensal," or "Money Thrown Away." The crew then deserted the ship, and the Spaniards, after defeat­ ing the Netherlanders in a naval bat­ tle, carried the monster in triumph to Uli ouuu the camp of Alexander, of Parma, where . Jn this city it became one of the sights of the times. The city of Antwerp was taken August 17, 1585, and so the first iron­ clad on record came to an unfortunate end.

Those of Esilud, Russia and Austria* Dancing at the Same BsIL It is not often that the lieirs to three of the worlds most powerful empires are dancing at the same ball, so a quadrille d'honneur at Buckingham palace the other night was a mem­ orable occasion, says London Figaro. The prince of Wales and crown princes of Russia and Austria were footing it together, and subsequently the Aus­ trian archduke and the czarowitz were noticed waltzing with their backs al­ most touching each other. The heir of the czar is very fond of dancing, a taste which is shared to the full by his betrothed, Princess Alix of Hesse. The Austrian prince is inclined to be awk­ ward, and managed to entangle his spur with disastrous consequence to the gown of Princess Louise of Batten- berg. He is described as a taciturn young man and rather inclined to be morose. During his visit to England he avoided all the society he could and really only went to court because he could not very well stay away. At the state ball he managed to wander to a comparatively obscure corner, to­ gether with the Japanese prince, where the two royal gentlemen doubtless consoled each other with anecdotes. Another prit »e to whom the Austrian deigned to be civil was a royal high­ ness from Siam, whom he delighted by addressing in a few words picked np by the archduke while in Bangkok. JAP WOMAN TOOK CORE*. / r -~ Ml press Jlnga Conquered the Coon try and Won Everlasting: Renown. It is to a woman that Japan owes her claim to Corea and to the naval suprem­ acy of the eastern world. The first naval expedition which made Japan's "arms to shine beyond the seas," as the chroniclers of the day so psoudly wrote, was planned and conducted by a woman, Empress Jingu, and it was directed against Corea. Empress Jingu, according to the Japanese chron­ icles, was young and beautiful and as pious and obedient to the gods as beau­ tiful. As a reward for her fidelity Heaven inspired her with determina­ tion to conquer Corea. So Jingu, or­ dering a fleet to be colleoted, set out In 201 A. D. upon Japan's first naval expedition. The empress won a rich reward for her courage and energy, and Corea became tributary to Japan. Immediately upon her return a child was born to the empress, who, when he grew up, became a great warrior, and is now worshiped under the name of Ilachiman, god of war. In later times it became the fashion to attribute the Corean victory to the influence of the unborn child. All over Japan there are temples erected in honor of both Hachiman and Jingu, and as late as 1874, when the Japanese troops left for Formosa, many of them prayed for the special protection of Hachiman, god of soldiers.* BURMESE DACOIT&' • Lawyer Mistaken for On* and Fired • Upon at Rangoon. The excitement among the English in Birmah over the robbers and mur­ derers they call dacoits may be im­ agined from the following, says the Rangoon Times: A Mr. Birch, an advocate, was going in the evening in a sampan with a Eurasian clerk. Suddenly another boat with natives in it drew near and hailed. Neither Mr. Birch nor his clerk nor the boatman, who was from Chitta- gong, could understand much Burcfiese, and, fearing dacoity, he .made signs to his boatman to pull as fast as he could. The other boat immediately opened fire and Mr. Birch was hit in the thigh. Mr. Birch, being armed with a Der­ ringer, returned the shot and a pretty sharp duel began. A police boat eventually arrived and the thing was stopped. It turned out that the na­ tives were not dacoits, but an anti- dacoit patrol, who opened fire on Mr. Birch's party because their challenge was not duly answered. The Rangoon Times questions whether, in the pres­ ent unsettled state of feeling, the at­ tack on a European was purely a mis- take..

J. erinan, of Dimondale, Mich., we are per­ mitted to make this extract: " I have hesitation in recommending Dr. King's New Discovery, as the results were almost marvelous in the case of my wife. While I was pastor of theiBaptist church at Rives Junction she was brought down with Pneumonia succeeding La Grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last hours with little interruption and it seemed as if she could not survive them A friend recommended Dr. King's New Discovery; it was quick in its work and highly satisfactory in results."
