There is a belief that repairing works for cars and engines will be erected there. ADVERSITY exasperates fools, dejects cowards, draws out the faculties of the wise and ingenious, puts the modest to/ the necessity of trying their skill, awes the opulent, and makes the idle indusA irioas. Much may be said in favor of adversity; hot the worst of it is it has no Wr^h 10 and September 3 Mends.

Mrs. Hawks is the mother of Mrs. Bacon, whom she has not seen before for thirty- Rve years.

Smith, on the west side, had a narrow escape from destruction by fire, on Monday forenoon last. The fire caught in a wood box, near the kitchen stove, and had gained couaideVable headway before being dis­ covered. It was extinguished however, with slight damage. EDNA STORY received aiB • €h mas present, from her parents, a fin Shetland pony and a handsome canopy] covered cart, which presents a very neat and tasty appearance, and is a turnout of which she is justly proud, and with, which she will find nmch enjoyment in ^feejBttwev ONE of the many things which puzzle us is why some people who never do a day's work, who have no property or means, can wear better clothes and eat better victuals than many hard working men of careful and frugal habits. It is one of the problems we bump up against in life--one of the mysteries we can't un­ derstand. THE Chicago Inter Ocean hits the nail squarely on the head when it says that "5,000 miles of 'good country roads would do more towfi*^ increasing the wealth of Illinois and would add more to iiiit) cuuiiui'ii oi it« 911 <i suburban population'than would be gained by 10,000 miles of new railroad." / THE Chicago Mail of Saturday evening gives a picture of George Slim pin, the jenergetic newsboy, in this village, and jgives him the following flattering notice: "George Slimpin of McHenry, 111., is a type of the energetic American boy. He bandies the Chicago papers, including The Mail, and by his enterprise has built up a very prosperous business. The people of McHenry fully appreciate his tireless energy and are hearty in their praises of him." despatch from Belvidere to the Inter- utider date of the 25th, says, that Hatch, of Burton, this county, her brother, were at that city Arisiting her parents, was run down t>y a boy on horseback, and both se­ verely injured. At the time the despatch was srnt Mrs. Hatch had not regained consciousness, and it is feared she will • not recover, while her brother, Stephen Reynolds, had several bones broken and wa&^uirt inwardly. •JOHN FARE was handsomely remem­ bered by his many friends on the West side, on Christmas eve., being presented oy them with about $10 worth of grooer- es of all kinds, which in these times are mre to make any man's heart glad. Mr. ?are has0 been a resident of this town for nany years and has hosts of friends who will be pleased to know that he was so bounteously remembered on the day )f all others, when friends remember one Another. WE have sent out the past moith a large number of bills to which we have received no response. While the amount is not large to each one in the aggregate is large to us, and we need and must have what is our just due. Stock, help and fuel all cost money, and in order to meet the demands upon us we must in­ sist that those who owe us pay up. We very much dislike to resort to harsh measures but shall be aompelled to, do so when milder means fail. ' < . 4 - / YOUNG man, when you jeei^ #! ® passing along the street or haunt and startle her with your glances, does it ever occur to you that some other scoundrel might insult your sister, your wife, or, in coming years, your daughter, in the same infamous manner? How would you like it? Would you think it smart? Would you regard it as manly or an evi­ dence of blood? If so, you ought to be kicked from one end of the continent to the other and horsewhipped back again. THE Bureau of Animal Industry as a result of experiments, finds the following the best remedy for hog cholera and the swine plague: Wood charcoal, sulphur, sodium sulphate and antimony sulphide, one pound each: sodium chloride, sodiiim bicarbonate and sodium hyposulphite, wo pounds each. To be pulverized and nixed and a daily dose of a large table- ipooniul for each 200 pounds weight of logs. It may be used as a preventative. It should be given to the whole herd. rThey should be kept in dry quarters, away from drafts. RINGWOOO. J.

A RECENT number of Bradstreets' says that careful investigation shows that eighty per cent of all mercantile failures in the United States during the past'five years have been ot firms who have not advertised. There is a moral here for every merchant. m THE almanac announces five eclipses for the coming year. Three are eclipses of the sun and will be invisible in the United States. The other two are total eclipses of the moon, and both will be Lvisible here. The dates are the nights of THE Christmas Trees and exercises in the different churches in this village, drew oat the usual large crowds and were of the most interesting character. Fine literary programmes were rendered, the usual handsome presents distribut­ ed, and all report a pleasant and enjoy­ able time. WHAT looks like a big swindle is ad- rertised in some newspapers. In Iowa man wants people to send him samples of bushels of corn in the ear, freight paid, and offers as a price for the best one a $500 span of horses. Nothing is said about paying for the corn that does not win the prise, or restoring it either. As horses are cheap, corn dear, and suckers plentiful, this man may or may not make a fortune by the method he has taken. McHenry county farmers had better keep their corn. Insure yonr property witk 8. Stoffel gad feel secure. THE dancing public are sure not to for­ get the Annual New Year's Pdrty, at the Riverside House, on Tuesday evening of next week. No pains has been spared by mine host Story to make it the party of the season, and he knows no such word as fail. . You will be sure of the best in every line if you go to the Riverside House. THE year just closing has been one of great handships to everyone, and especi­ ally has thiB been true among the poorer people. These glad holiday times offer all an'opportunity to make somebody happy. Let our readers remember that the most genuine pleasure of life is to be found in making some grief stricken or unfortunate being feel that there is yet something in life worth living for. If you have no gifts to bestow remember that a, kind word timely spoken has rescued many a mortal from despondency and made them a new and useful being. DR. HOWE, with whom everybody in this section is familiarly acquainted on account of the large number of supposed­ ly incurable cases which ha has restored to their wonted health after the skill of many other well read physicians had been completely baffled, was kept busy all day Saturday at his office in the Parker House, many more calling than he could find time to wait upon, hence he has made arrangements to spend one whole week immediately after the holi­ days, at his old quarters in this village, to accommodate all who wish his ser­ vices. All who can will be cordially re­ ceived by the Doctor, who is a pleasing and intel'igent gentleman, and no Re­ specter of persons, treating all free of charge until cured, an offer unsurpassed, when his ability and skill are taken into consideration. PEOPLE who eat apples will learn with surprise1 that when they dispose of the juicy fruit they fill up on a whole list of medical substances. A German analyst has chemically investigated and an­ nounces that apples are composed of vegetable fibre, albumen, sugar, gum, cforopbyl, molic acid, gallic acid, lime, water, and no telling what else, 1 le as­ sures us, however, that the phosphorous in the fruit is adapted to renewing the nervous matter of the brain and the spinal cord, that apples are excellent tonic for,men of sedentary habits, whose livers ai*e sluggish in action, that they will neutralize any excess ot chalky mat­ ter engendered by eating much meat, and h^ve various other commendable qualities. People may continue to eat apples, provided they can get them, but it is well that they know on what they are filling up in eating them. --: • / The finest Smoker's Sets in town at Besley's.

All are very enthusiastic over the moulding board principle. Several of our best tragedians have been engaged by the Greenwood people to help them out on a programme New Years, for the', benefit of the Baptist church. There is quite ft strong talk of moving the town of Ringwood over lo thecounty seat so as to save the expense of paying witnesses car fare and livery ricrs back and forth. Another suit on for this week and good prospects for more soon. Mr. ^mall, our harness maker, arrived Monday and is all ready to wait on those who need any kind of harness work done. Dr, Howe Restores the Bight of a Blind Woman. Mrs. Selma Johnson, of Rockford, HI., who had been totally blind for five years consulted Dr. Howe while filling his ap­ pointment at Rockford, T8©TTre*t>ectin£ any help. She and her friends were hap­ pily surprised to find, after a simple op­ eration which the Dr. performed, requir­ ing but a few moments time to complete it, which consisted in removing a quan­ tity of fluid which had collected behind both eye balls, she could see as well as any. person present. The Columbia Desk Calendar. For ten years the desk calendar issiied by the Pope Manufacturing Company has held a unique place among' business helpers. Each daily leaf during that time has taught its quiet lesson of the va[ue of of better roads and outdoor ex­ ercise, and especially the benefits of bicycling. The calendar for 1895, which is just issued, is even brighter than it# predecessors in appearance, as clever artists have added dainty silhouette and sketch to the usual wise aud witty con tributions that have heretofore given this popular calendar its charm. It can be had for 5 2-cent stamps from the Pope Manufacturing Company, Hartford, Conn., or from any Columbia bicycle agency.
