WELL SAID-Says IL sensible exchange;
1t matters not how many newspapers a
man takes, his list is incomplete without his
home paper. Every citizen who wishes well
FOR his locality. should give general support
to his home paper. IF that paper is not just
such as he would wish, he should feel that
himself and neighbors are responsible, in a
measure, for its shortcomings. Give a paper
iberal~support, an active. sympathy, and
it will instantly respond to such manifesto
tons. Let an editor feel that his efforts are
appreciated and hesis the most responsible
being on earth; his paper being part of
himself, he is as sensitive to praise or cen
sure as doting father"
Nothing can supply the place of a hon
paper :. 1t is the mirror in which the town
and neighborhood news is reflected. In the
social, political ndrehgous circle it fills j;
place no other paper can. When need of
economy compels you to curtail your news
paper list, strike off every other one before
you say to the publisher of your home jour
nal, " stop my paper" :

county clerk-he is nephew have leased
the Keiser steam bakery and converted the
| upper part of the building into broom fac
tory where they turn out from l25 to $50
first class brooms every day. They procure
none but the very best class of stock and
manufacture the highest quality Of brooms.
Common brooms are drug in any market,
but brooms of the very best quality will al
ways sell. They also make large, heavy,

bling saloons, sweeping stables, distiileries,
factories, shops, &c, &c.
They find ready sale for their work, and,
no doubt, will continue to do so as long as
they continue to make first class work
They also make very nice clothes brushes
and every kind OF q brush or wisp ever
heard of, from broom corn. Anything want
ed, which they have not on hand, will be
made to order.

has converted the lower story of the build

any one can get horses trained and boarded,

is an excellent horse trainer and will give
his personal attention to that part of the bus
