WE often wonder why some people can­ not mind their own business. It is two­ fold ; one is that they have no mind, and the other that they have no business. THE first snow storm of the season ip this section occurred on Sunday morning last. Enough fell to make it plainly vis­ ible on the sidewalks. S. MCDONALD is treating his residence to a coat of paint, inside and out, which will great improve its appearance, E. B. Perkins is doing the work. THE Board of Education are requested to meet in the High School Room, on Friday evening of this week, at 8 o'clock sharp. Business of importance. By re­ quest of the President. PROFESSOR AND MRS.

No lover of the play should fail to go to Riverside Hall on Friday evening and witness the Drama of "Old .Jed Whit-j comb, a Cousin to Josh." Grand Free Dancc after the play. A RECENT writer on political economy says: "This country has more than a quarter of the world's riches." More than a "quarter?" Well we should say so. We've had as much as thirty cents at a time, ourself. AT Marinette, Wis., the Superinten­ dent of the schools is ordered by the school board to prosecute any dealer who sells cigarettes to pupils. It is found that they cannot study on ac­ count of the effects of smoking. THE Ladies' Aid Society, of the M. E Chnrch, will meet with Mrs. I. Wentworth, on Friday afternoon of this week, at 2 o'clock, for the purpose of quilting. Everybody invited. MRS. D. WENTWORTH, Sec. THE Oyster Supper, at the City Hall, on Friday evening last, by the Epworth League, was not as well attended as ^ould have been desired, and consequent­ ly financially was not a success. This is £o"be regretted.. The supper was an ex­ cellent one, and was highly enjoyed by all who were there. ED, TAYLOR, formerly of Hebron, and well ktfown in this section, died at hie home at Marengo, Saturday, Oct. 12th, ^ith^typhoid fever* The remains were taken to Hebron for 'interment. He leaves a large family of small children. No .doubt there is a big. difference in the size of men's souls. Near a" public high­ way in Peoria county appears the follow­ ing notice: "No hunting alio wed on this farm," Almost opposite appears a sign board on another farm which reads; "Hunting allowed here. Come on boys, and if you are hungry when the bell rings come fight in to dinner." "LAYING on of hands," for complaints, especially in children,is now taking the place of other remedies. A mother cured her boy of the cigarette habit with one dose. She laid oue haud on the boy's neck, her right hand on a substantial slipper, turned the boys head to the east --ahd then laid the slipper on the west end of his pants, and the siuc>ke that arose therefrom has caused the boy to utterly abhor smoking ever since. IOWA has an editor who has never put theword "doctor" in his paper, so the paragrapher says. He solicited the phy­ sicians of his village for cards, and every one of them told him it was very unpro­ fessional for a physician to advertise to "ttie extent of a word. Th.fe editor \s;a8 touched by their devotion to a profes­ sional principle. He could nor, he said, prefix the abbreviation of Dr. to their names without advertising their profes­ sion, aud he could not think of hurting their feelings. From that day Dr. John Jones became simply John Jones and so has remained to the present time. THE art of advertising is making long and powerful strides, and the man who fails to keep up with it--well, the sheriff "will get him if he don't watch out." Two things are certain: Spasmodic newspaper advertising doesn't pay, and experimenting with all styles and kinds of newspaper advertising fails to bring the best results. Have an unvarying style of your own, a destinctive charac teristic style. Have an exclusive border or an exclusive type if possible. JLefc the people learn where to look for your ads, and have some feature about them that will make people read them. Describe your goods in a brief, breezy, catchy way. Then let others wrangle about what constitutes good advertising, while you make money. ' THE,Drama, to be presented at RiveA side Hall, on Friday evening of this week, under the auspices of the West McHenry Brass Band, promises to be one of the best entertainments presented to the lovers of the play this season. Old Jed Whitcomb, a Cousin of Josh, is a beauti­ ful five-act drama, depicting life on a farm in the ^State of Maine, and is brim full of fun and pathos, from beginning to end. Being composed of home talent and for the benefit of a home Band, they are entitled to and no doubt will receive' a liberal patronage. The 'fallowing is the DRAMATIS PERSON.E.

SOLON SCHOOL NOTES The blackboard' reading exerciser fur­ nish both entertainment and instruction for both the primary and intermediate grades. Tn addition to and along with the study of the reading lesson in the fext book, the school is now" preparing and writing upon the blackboard read­ ing lessons that are based upon stories told or other school exercises. When the reading lesson is the joint composi­ tion of teacher and pupil, it poflsesses a freshness and charm which excites the child's activities. By means of the pantagrapb the ad­ vanced class in geography have succeed­ ed in making some fine stencil jjlate maps. An accurate outline map can be transferred to the board in a very few minutes. The system of U. S. land survey and location of the public lands is the topic for the geography class. Friday afternoons are given up to readings, recitations/memory gems/and observation exercises. „ A set of encyclopedias have been added to the library. W. G. ED GAB. B. TAYLOR. In the Marengo Republican we find the following Obituary notice of Edgar B. Taylor, who leaves many warm friends in this part of McHenry County: Edgar B. Taylor died at his home in this city Saturday^mo.riimg, October 32, of typhoid feyer^ after several weeks ill­ ness. aged 41 years and 5 months. He leaves a widow and six children. A brief funeral service was held at his late residence Mouday moruing at 9 o'elock, at which Rev. E. I. Davies offi­ ciated. The body was then taken to Hebron and buried by the side of two children who died there a fe*f years ago. Mr. Taylor was born in Woodstock, and had lived nearly all his life in this county! He came to Marengo about two years ago. Previous to that he had ived nine years in Hebron. He was in- lustrious, kind-hearted, and made friends readily. For the past year he has ^een in the employ of E. D, Shurtleff, and' was a faithful, painstaking employe. In fiis illness, which extended over several reeks, Mr. Shurtleff gave his personal ittention to his case, giving liberally of both money and time for his comfort, fie was recovering nicely, when about two weeks ago a relapse set in, which, iespite the best medical attention and careful nursing, terminated in death. Two of the children are quite sick, and the family is in straightened circumstan- ;es, and we are glad to say that kind friends are doiug all in their power to issistthem. The family most assuredly find sincere •lympathy in our city. They are also deeply sensible of, and very grateful for the kind ministrations of many friends in their hour of sorrow and deep bereave­ ment.

" " A FINE MT73ICAL OCCASION. The Y\ P. C. U., of the Uuiversalist Church have again procured the profes­ sional «ervices of the celebrated com­ poser, teacher and vocalist, Prof. S. W Straub, with his wife and nieces, for a concert, assisted by home talent. The concert will be given on Wednesday even­ ing, Nov. 6. Those who had the pleasure of hearing them on last March will be delighted with this news. Particulars next week. WE would call particular attention to the advertisement of the Whitmore ire Fence, which can be found in another column. This is pronounced by all who have seen it to be the finest fence, for all purposes, now on the market. No horse killing barbs, but one that will stop stock of all kinds, and to which is added beauty with utility. Call and see it at the Pickle Factory, where it is set up. W. A. Cristy and W. Noonan have the right of McHenry county. Read the advertisement. Dr. Weare's Sure Cure for Heaves. A BROTHER editor gets off the follow­ ing: "Ten cents per line will be charged for obituary notices to all business men who do not advertise while living. De­ linquent subscribers will be charged fif- teen cents per line for an obituary notice Advertisers and cash subscribers will receive as good a send-off as we are cap­ able ,ot writing, without any charge whatever. Better send in your sub­ scription as cholera is abroad in the land." IT undoubtedly becomes tiresSme to our subscribers who always promptly pay their subscription, to be con tinually reading the dunnings that appear in our columns. It becomes tiresome to our­ selves. But what is the poor printer to do? Hundreds of subscribers do not seem to be endowed with very good memories, and unless the publisher keeps reminding them of it, the idea that they owed for the paper might never enter their minds, and the printer always "needs his dough." The people from whom he buys his material, paper etc., and his men must have their cash right off or there will be trouble. Another thing, the subscribers are scattered over a large territory, and the expense of travelling about and personally asking each one for the amount due would cost half as much or more than it amounts to. Wc wish that many of our subscrib­ ers would read this over twice and then come or send in and pay us the small amount that is due us from them. A Trying Season. This is the trying season, as the first cold weather comes on, for colds and the possible following of roughs, ordinary iistemper, or epizootic with horses. A little care now will take them through without trouble. A few doses of Dr Weare's Sure Cure for Heaves, occasion­ ally, will tone the animal up and save a later and larger expense. Preventive is sasier and cheaper than cure. A Little Fun at Home. Do not be afraid of a little fun at home. Do not shut up the house lest the sun should fade your carpets, and your heart lest a laugh should shake down a few of the nasty old cobwebs that are hanging there. If you want to raise your sons, lot them think that all mirths and social enjoyments must not be left at the threshold without when they come home at night. When once a home is regard­ ed as only a place to eat, drink and sleep in, the work is begun that ends in gam­ bling houses and reckless degredation. Young people must have fun and relaxa­ tion ; if they do not find it at their own hearthstone, they will seek it at a less profitable place. Do not repress the buoyant spirit of your children. Half an hour of merriment indoors, and merri­ ment of a home, blots out the remem­ brance of many a care and annoyance of the day; and the best safeguard they can take with them into the world is the in­ fluence of a bright home.--£x. HEBRON, III., Oct. 15,1895. To the Teachers of McHenry County: The Northern Illinois Teachers' Asso­ ciation will meet at Elgin, Oct. 25-26, 1895.
