Party, by the Young People1 cial Club, at the City Hall, on Thurs ay evening last, was quite largely at- nded and all report a good time. A goodly number of the older people were also in attendance.

Church, held at the City Hal on Friday evening last, was well attend­ ed and everything was served up in fine style and to the entire satisfaction of all. X^he entertainment which followed was* first class and altogether proved a suc­ cess, financially and otherwise. PROF.

They are working in the state and are liable to drop among you at any time. They are canvassing with a fine grade of wheat, which they allege will yield an average of 58 bushels to the acre. The grains are large and there are mure of them on the stalk. You will be required to sign a contract, and if you don't lose your farm you will be in luck. A FARMER in Jo Daviess county sold twenty-two head of wheat-fed hogs. He weighed the porkers before he began feeding them.» He fed exactly thirty-five bushels of cracked wheat and the hogs gained 110 pounds for each hog. He paid five cents a bushel for having the wheat crafeked and the hogs sold for five cents a pound on foot. By a little figur­ ing it will be observed that he realized f 1.52 for his wheat. THE quaint little women of Kate Green- away are to be seen in a magazine for the first time since their creation. Miss Greenaway has heretofore always drawn them in color and for book publication.

A child is born, the doctor in at­ tendance gets $10, the editor notes it and gets 0; it is christened, the minister gets f 4, the editor gets 00; it marries, the minister gets another fee, the editor gets a piece of eake, or 000; in the course of time it dies, the doctor gets from f>5 to $10," the minister gets another f4, the undertaker gets f 25 to $50, the editor publishes it and receives 0000, and the privilege of running free of charge a card of thanks. AN exchange says no man is satisfied with his lot in life. One man is strug- ling for justice and another is flying from it. One man is saving all his money to build a fine house. Another is trying to sell his for less than it coat him. One man is spending all he earns in taking a girl to the theatre and sending her flowers in hopes of making her his wife, while his neighbor is spending all the money he makes to get a divorce. One man goes through many battles of war without a scratch and gets killed on the railroad. Another man escapes all dis­ eases the flesh is heir to and dies a suicide. AN exchange has the following: If you would increase your happiness and pro­ long your life, forget your neighbor's faults, forget the slander you have heard, forget the temptations, forget the fault finding and give a little thought to the causes that provoked it. Forget the pe­ culiarities of your friends and only re­ member the good points that make you fond of them. Forget all personal quar­ rels or of histories that you may have heard by accident, and which, if repeated would seem a thousand times worse than they are. Blot out as far as possible all the disagreeables of life, they will come; but they will only grow larger when you remember them; the constant thought of the acts of meanness--worse still--malice --will only ta^d to make you more fami­ liar. Obliterate everything bad from yesterday, start out with a clean Bheet for to-day, and write upon it for sweet memory's sake only those tilings that are lovely and lovable.

IN the Doland, South Dakota, Timea- jRecord, we find the following: Died, on Monday afternoon, November 5th, 1894, at 3:30, of typhoid fever, anies Fryfir, aged 62 years. Mrs. Fryer was born at Corsley, Wilt­ shire, England, November 13.1832, and at the age of 22 was united in marriage with James Fryer, after which they came to America and located at Rome, N. Y In the spring o£)l872 they came west, settling at Rochester, Minnesota, but moved to McHenry, Illinois, the same spring, where they resided until 1886, when they moved to South Dakota] with the exception of two daughters. They settled on a farm near Doland, where they have resided ever since. Mrs. Fryer leaves to mourn her depart­ ure a husband and ten children, five boys and five-girls, all of of whom live near Doland, except Mrs. Claxton and Mrs. Page, who still reside near McHenry, III. The funeral services were held at the Irving church, Wednesday morning at 1 o'clock, and a large concourse of pie were present to pay their last re- ipects to the memory of the departed ne. IN MEMORY OF OUR DEAR MOTHER. We have laid her down to rest. . Her weary march is o'er, And how blessed is that rest With God and angels forevermore. Our dear mother she has left as, She was always kind and true, Always had a kind word for us, When she our troubles knew. Every day we will miss her, As our duties we perform, To look around about us And not see her dear form. From that home we would notcedl her, To this world of pain and care. Though our hearts are filled with sorrow And it is so hard to bear. But we' are'reconciled to the will of Him Who is always just and right, For we know that she is happy In that blessed land of light. s.r. PARTICULAR NOTICE.

One of the dangers which menaced travelers in the early history of Cali­ fornia was an attack by highwaymen. An old stage driver who drove over a part of the long line between San Jose and Los Angeles relates an interesting incident of those early days. He says: I remember once, says a writer in the Youth's Companion, in a lonely coast- range canyon, through-which the road wound, we had a little experience that was thrilling for the moment. It was a moonlight night, and I was pushing ahead at a good speed, with a stage full of passengers, and a heavy treas­ ure box. Just as I got around a bend in the road I saw the figure of a man on horseback beside the road. He yelled out for us to stop, and 1 saw a gun bar­ rel glean: in the moonlights The horses were going at a speed that might be called breakneck, and I made up my mind to take the chance of getting through. I saw the gun raised to the fellow's shoulder as we approached. I had my long whip in my hand, and with a desperation born of the peril of the moment, I made a vicious swipe at him. I don't know how it happened, but the lash wound itself around the gun. and as we dashed by, the whip was drawn taut. I was nearly pulled off my seat, but I held on, and the gun was dragged out of the robber's hand and fell to the ground. At the same moment it was discharged b^ the shock. It rattled along the road for quite a distance before the whiplash unwound itself. I don't know what the high­ wayman thought, but I'll wager he surprised. h • * Vitv A FUNNY LITTLE STORY. la Which Pride la Rebuked ta Tra* Blaa Fairy Book Style. A funny little story, with a moral, comes from Ischl, by way of a London exchange. Not long ago a lady who had just arrived from Roumania, took a stroll to Sofiens Dopple Blick, a cele­ brated point of view. There she met a young married lady, accompanied by her little girl. The smarfc^rather over­ dressed stranger was much struck with the child's frock, which was exquisitely embroidered with forget-pe-nots, and advancing, she calmly asked the youth­ ful mother where the garment was bought. "I embroidered all her frocks myself; it gives me sueh pleasure." "was the sailing answer. At this a shade of scorn came on the questioner's face, and she said, with ill-concealed con­ tempt: "That is only possible with a very small household. People like my­ self, who have so many visitors, and move in the best society have no time for euch middle-class pleasures." The other lady laughed, but returned no answer, and the fair Roumanian con­ tinued boasting until at last her hearer said mildly: "I also have to play hostess occasionally. My father, the emperor, favors us from time to time with a visit, and the empress often comes to see her grandchildren, as well as many other members of the imperial family; but all the same I have invariably leisure in the morning hours to do em­ broidery for my little girl." And be­ fore the stranger had recovered from her embarrassment the Archduchess Valerie and her small daughter were gone. ' " Women In the World. A French scientist figures that the number of women in the. world is nearly equal to that of men. In France the numbers approach more nearly to equality than in any other country, there being 1,007 women for 1,000 men. For the same number of men in Swe­ den there are 1,064 women, and in Greece only 933 women. In the French colony at Reunion there are 457 Creole wome* for 1,000 provincial French­ men, colored men included.

Gund- erman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are per­ mitted to make this extract: " I have no 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 the Baptist 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." Trial bottles free at G. W. Besfey's drug store. Regular size 50c. and fl.
