On and after May 1, 1903fall business locals and notices will be charged for at the rate of five cents per line. The same rate will be charged for notices of sociables, entertainments, dinners, etc.. where an admission fee is charged, whether given by individuals or soci­ eties. This plan is being adopted by enterprising papers throughout the land. It may seem like a hardship at first thought, but reason it out, and you will see it as the printer does. If the editor buys a dollar's worth of dry goods, he does not expect the merchant to throw in fifty cents worth of groceries Nor can he expect us to sell him space at a low rate and then throw in several dollar's worth of locals. The different societies, in getting up their sociables, etc., go to the merchant and pay for everything they get. Space in the paper is the publisher's stock in trade. Is it unreasonable that he should put a price on his stock? Please bear in mind that this ruling does NOT include notices of meetings where no admission fee is charged. TREAT the hen kindly. We don't want her to go back on us now. A DAM is still among the possibilities. All things come to him who waits. No dates mentioned. WHO will be the man to build some modern cottages for rent in McHenry. About six could be let at once. IT is indeed too bad if a concise state­ ment of facts has marred the effects of some person's nonsensical palaver and disturbed his peace of mind. AN occasional circular or bulletin through the mails informs us that Billy Mason is still gasping. It was bad enough that he was compelled to divide with Dawes, but now that Hitt must necessarily have a share--what a shame. MCHENRY merchants are putting in a good line of spring and summer mer­ chandise. There is uo reason why peo­ ple should go out of town to do their baying. It would be just, at least, to give the local tradesmen an opportunity to show their goods and qnote prices. when & person bees some­ thing that he wants, it is the duty of the opposition to hand it out to him on a silver platter, if.he has not ingenuity enough to concieve a plan whereby he can become possessor of that "some­ thing. " That would undoubtedly be called a "square deal." Harvard Herald: In the sixty-four counties in the state in which Republi­ can conventions or primaries have been held, 646 delegates will be sent to the state convention. Of these 413 are either instructed for Congressman Hop­ kins for United States senator or are known to favor his candidacy. Of the remaining 288 delegates, 168 are friendly to Mr. Dawes and 47 are for Senator Mason, while eighteen have not declared their preference publicly. These figures tell the story of the winning campaign Mr. Hopkins is making and of the com­ plete failure of the opposition. HON. GEORGE R. LYON, who has faithfully served bis constituents the past three terms, is a candidate for re­ election to the state legislature. Lake county will be wise to endorse his nomi­ nation. A new man has but little in­ fluence during his first term as he don't know tiie methods and hasn't the co­ operation of otherB to help his measures. Mr. Lyon has the advantage of experience and influence. H6 is honest and competent hence it would be un­ wise to change for an nntried man. The schemers dare not approach him with bribes. Better stick to a good man when you have one.--(Enterprise-Regis­ ter, Palatine.)

If Mr. Hopkins was incompetent; if he had had no experience in congress; if he were not well equipped with all the necessary qualifications of a useful and forceful statesman, the bitter opposition of the alleged Chicago Republican news­ papers would be excusable in a measure. These newspapers know that Mr. Hop- kin's record both as a Republican and a member of congress is unassailable; they know that he has been for years a leader in the house and that few have surpassed him in influencing legislation or in hard, painstaking work for the good of his constituency and the whole country. We don't know positively, but we be­ lieve Mr. Hopkins failed to go to the editors of the big dailies and prostrate himself before them and ask their con­ sent to become a candidate. It would not be like Hopkins to do so, and we be­ lieve he did not do it. But, as has been the case before, it may turn out again that the big dailies will see their in­ fluence go shimmering. They will prob­ ably find that the people will have paid no attention to their unfair and untruth­ ful criticism of the man who stood by and is one of the people, otherwise than to condemn such criticism. * Mr. Hopkins, as be should, is going around among the people. He will visit every county in the state. The people will see in him not the demagogue whom the big newspapers have tried to picture him, but on his frank counten­ ance will read the sign of truth and can­ dor, and hear in his voice the tones of a man devoted to the people and true to their cause.

RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION. From a little wooden-track line along the Laekawaxen Creek, where the first locomotive in the country had its trial in 1829, the railroad systems of the United States have jfcrown in seventy- three years to a network of rails which, straightened ont, would make a single track extending eight times around the world. Visualize this eightfold girdle. Beide it a new track is progressing twelve miles a day on the ninth circuit. On every five-mile stretch is a locomo­ tive with a train of eight cars. There are five men at work for every mile and 240 new men coming to work every day. The road carries more tonnage than all t he ships on all the seas together with the railroads of the busiest, half of Eu­ rope. From the lines that make up the imaginary manifold belt one wage- earner out of every fifteen in the country, directly or indirectly, secures a living for himself and his dependents, if not as a fireman or a conductor or a super­ intendent, then as a locomotive buildei or a steel worker or even one of the lumbermen engaged in hewing &own the three thousand square miles of tim­ ber employed every year for ties. Up­ on the operation of the lines depends the success of farming, cattle-raising, manufacturing. So vast is the industry, and so closely bonnd up with American life, that the trend of recent railroad development toward a stupendous monopoly makes the "railroad problem" the greatest single industrial puzzle confronting us. That monopoly will come, and come soon, is the opinion of many. C. P. Huntington, who was surely one of the greatest railroad men the country has produced, declared at a time when he had acquired the only bomplete trans­ continental system ever controlled by one man, that this generation would see a consolidation not only of the lines west of the Mississippi, but of all the railroads from coast to coast. "I shall not live to see it," he said in conversa­ tion with a younger man, "but you will. Economic conditions will demand it." And in the year and a half since Mr. Huntington's death railroad progress has simply jumped forward to bear out his prophecy, following his own methods. The Northern Securities Company has been hailed as something unique. It is merely a successor to the Southern Pacific Company, which owned the long Huntington roads in the west--im­ measurably vaster in capitalization, but novel in no other respect. Indeed, there have been mergers ever since the '50's not essentially different from those now gbingon.--M. G. Cunniff, in World's Work for February. Harbor and Biver Bill. The harbor and river bill passed the Benate Monday and it is expected that the president will sdon affix his signa­ ture thereto. The bill includes the per­ mission for the Fox River Navigable Waterway Association to construct a dam across Fox river near this village. The Johnsburgh Bridge. Contractor Turner, who will build the concrete abutments and piers for the Johnsburgh bridge, was here last week looking over the grounds. Mr. Turner expects to commence the work in four or five weeks and when once started will rush things to completion. WHY HOPKIN8 18 OPPOSKI). DeKalb Review: It remains to be «een what influence the big Chicago dailies will be able to bring to bear on the voters of Illinois in the United States senatorial question, wherein the chances of several candidates are in­ volved. For some reason not generally known, The Tribune and Journal parti­ cularly are bitterly assailing Congress­ man Hopkins. The reason may be found in-the fact that Governor Yates JIM! Jgr. Larimer an friendly to lfr. Poorly? " For two years I suffered ter­ ribly from dyspepsia, with great depression, and was always feeling poorly.

Farmers are becoming very anxious over their crops and no one can blame them. The land' is perfectly dry in some places and the chanceB are that corn r#ill not sprout until rain falls. Rev. Hicks states that April goes out with a regular storm period in progress. About the 27th signs of this oncoming period will show to the west; the warm wave will move eastward, winds will shift to the south, cloudiness will ensue and storms of rain and thnnder will pass eastward from about the 28th to 80th, the month ending with clondiness and rain over central to eastern parts of the country. More rain will fall during the first part of May, says Rev. Hicks.

Elderly men are less temptable. They are of fixed moral habit. Appetite and passion are under control. For better or for worse they are a calculable quantity, with slight variations to be taken Into account. Elderly men are more loyal as friends If they are friends. Their at­ tachment to a cause or a commercial house is less changeable. They have, moreover, given bonds for good beha­ vior in the persons of grown families whose respect is to them dearer than life. They know the difficulty of re­ pairing mistakes. Elderly men actually have experi­ ence. The older man best reads char­ acter. He is the wisest to select agents. --Washington Times. IVebraakm "Hog Eat era." A Nebraska judge was asked how It was that the citizens of his state were nicknamed "bug eaters." "The name Is applied tp up some­ times in the east," answered the judge frankly. "It originated many years ago in a peculiar way, incident to a speech. Back in 1874 a swarm of grass­ hoppers descended upon our fair state and despoiled everything. Crops were swept awfiy before this army of in­ sects, and) the people were left desti­ tute. An appeal went up for aid, and some of our eloquent Nebraskans jour­ neyed east-to plead our cause. One of these eloquent citizens in a flight of speech declared that the voracious grasshoppers had even eaten the tires off wagon wheels and were devouring the railroad tracks. 'Why, our people have nothing but grasshoppers and bugs,' was the climax of this orator's speech!" exclaimed the judge. "And now you have the history of the sobriquet of 'bug eaters,'" he con­ cluded.--Washington Post. An Old Superstition. Superstition connected with the sev­ enth child of a seventh child is com­ memorated by a tombstone in a village churchyard near Brldgewater, Somer­ set. This inscription runs: "Sacred to the memory of Doctress Anne Pouns- berry, who departed this life Dec. 11, 1813, aged seventy-three years. Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God." Doctress was not merely an epithet, but a baptismal name, for she was a seventh daughter of a seventh daughter and was therefore credited with powers of healing. She practiced in herbs and charms. For king's evil this was her prescription: '*Take the legs of a toad. Bake and grind them to powder with pestle and mortar. Place the powder in a bag around the neck of the sufferer."--London Chronicle. Aatlqnltr of Glass. So far as research has been able to determine glass was in use 2,000 years before the birth of Christ and was even then not in its infancy by any manner of means. In the Slade collec­ tion at the British museum there is tne head of a lion molded in glass, bearing the name of an Egyptian king of the eleventh dynasty. This is the oldest specimen of pure glass bearing any­ thing like a date now known to exist. The invention now known as "bleea- ing," the mode of varnishing pottery with a thin film of glass, is believed to date back to the first Egyptian dynas­ ty. Proof of thiB Is found in the pot­ tery beads, glass glazed, found In the tombs of the age above referred to. Weeping Trees, The literature of "weeping trees" Is enormous, much of it being plainly mythical, but there is a large basis of fact upon which most of these mar­ velous stories rest. Many travelers nave described the famous "rain tree" of Padradoca, Isle of Ferro. John Cockburn in 1735 described a tree at Vera Pas, Central America, from which pure water continually dripped from every leaf and branch.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis­ courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid­ neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kid­ neys. If the child urin­ ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis­ erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
