The Wauconda Leader says: "Frank Broughton will move to McHenry, where he ha* taken one of the Hanley farms." -• ; . . Judging froiii'the manner in which the candidates are announcing them­ selves, the annual town caucus this year will be one of the most lively ones in many years. The more the merrier. It is said "a ni-in who squeezes a dol­ lar is never known to squeea'e his wife." In looking over our subscription list we are led to believe there are some awful­ ly fine women in this county who are not getting embraced as often as they deserve. ' Mr. and Mrs. Will Kranse entertained a company of friends at their home Wed­ nesday evening of last w(eek, Those present were Messrs. and Mesdatnes William Bishop, John E. Freund, A1 Kranse, George Smith; Messrs.' Will Smith and Mathias Weber. Geo. Smith, who daring the pait sev­ eral years has been a faithful employe at the local Borden plant, has resigned his position with that firm to accept a job in a foundry in Kenosha, Wis. Mr. and Mrs. Smith will take up their abode in the Badger state city next week. Chas. G. Frett last week disposed of his bay driving mare to A. H. Kingsley of Pistakee Bay, the consideration be­ ing $200. Mr. Frett is a lover of good horse flesh, and thru the deal the pur­ chaser has received one of the finest steeds to be found anywhere in the county. Watch the label npon your paper, as your name may be next to be taken from oar list. We positively cannot forward papers unless they are paid for within one year. Nearly one hundred names have been taken from oar lists since the new poetoffice ruling went into effect April 1. The "'Harmonica elub," whoever that may be, enjoyed a very social evening at V^eber's hall last Saturday evening. Feltz & Miller's orchestra furnished the music for dancing, all the latest piece? being introduced, to the great delight of those present. A Wauconda man complimented his straw-haired wife telling her that all angels are blondes--bat when he re­ turned home one night with a couple'of brown hairs caught around the lodge emblem on the lapel of his coat--he stumbled onto the lamentable, discovery that all blondes are not angels. Either run a town with a vim or jast sell out and loaf. One thing must be done--ran the town for all that it is worth; get ap steam and keep it'up. Do you want business to come to yonr town? "Then never permit jealousy to rale your actions, but work together for common prosperity and mutual ben­ efit. ' If yoo have entertained company frbin a distance, gone on a visit yourself, me! with an accident, have sickness or death in the family, entertained at a party, bad a marriage in the family or any other bit of news that may be of general interest, hand or mail it to this office for publication. All items will be thankfully received. / . "It's not much to say for a man thai he "never had an enemy," says the Newton (Kan.) Journal. "Yoa could write that over a cabbage head. It would be appropriate in an essay on mush, or a panegyric on putty. It makes a first-class epitaph above the grave of an ox. If yoa never did any­ thing to make any body mad at yoa, yoa have been called a man merely thru courtesy. You should apply for a place as a dummy ih a window of a clothing store." - Courtship in Church. The following incident is said to have happened in Woodstock. We do not vouch for it bftt give i,t for what it it* w^rth: A young gentleman happening to sit in chnrch in a pew adjoining one in which sat a young lady for whom he conceived a sudden and violent passion was desiroos of entering into a court­ ship on the spot; but the place not suit ing a formal declaration, the exigency of the case suggested the following plan He politely handed his fair neighbor a Bible (open) with a pin stuck in the fol lowing text: Second Epistle of John verse fifth-- "And now I beseech thee, lady, not as tho I wrote a new com­ mandment onto thee, but that we love one another." She returned it, point­ ing to the second chapter of Ruth, verse tenth--"Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, 'Why have I found grace in thine eyes that thou shouldst take knowledge of me, seeing that I am a stranger?' " He returned the book, pointing to the 13th verse of the Third Epistle of John--"Having many things to write upon to you, I would not write with paper and ink, bnt I trust to come unto yoa and speak face to face, that oar joy may be fall." From theZabove interview a marriage took place the en sning week.
