To Young Men,

Make yourself indispensable to your
employers; that is the golden path to
success. BE so industrious, so prompt,
so careful that if you are absent one
half-hour out of the usual time, YOU will,
be missed, and he in whose service YOU
are, shall say, II did not dream l.
WAS so useful Make your employer
your friend, by performing with minute
ness whatever task he sets before YOU.
and above all be not too nice to lend a
helping hand at dirty work, no matter
how repugnant to your sense Of neat
ness 1t may be. The success Of your
business in after years depends upon
how you deport yourself now. If YOU
are really good for anything, you are
good for great deal. Be energetic, put
your manners into your business; took
As well as act with alacrity; appear to
feel all interest; make your employers
success your own, if you have an honest
one. Let your eye light up at his re-
quest, and your feet be nimble. There
are some who look so dull and heavy,
and go with so slow and lazy pace, it
is irksome to ask them what it is YOUR
right to demand of them; be not like
these

Time for Planting Strawberries

Some advocate setting strawberry
plants in the fall: others in June or
July; and still others, and we believe
the larger number, think the last of
April or first of May the better time
After many years experience, we have
no hesitation in saying that the best
time OF the whole year is the SPRING
The frequent and genial showers Of that
season are favorable to the growth of
the plants; and they soon get hold SO
as to be able to withstand the heat of
summer and the frosts OF winter When
set III summer, unless frequently water
ed, the plants soon dry up and die. If
set in the fall, they are very likely to
be thrown out and destroyed the follow
ing winter.

and with the assistance of those above,

"A span of horses, attached to a
wagon, were left standing in the streets
at Davenport, on Tuesday evening
of last week, while their master went
into Il saloon. They soon got tired of
"only waiting" and started to cross the
railroad bridge on their own hook. The

The suit Of John Granger vs.. Lam
son, of Jones county, was tried at Dc
Witt last week, and resulted in a ver-
dict OF twelve hundred dollars in favor

was president of the Jones Co. Ayricui-
tural Society, for all alleged violation of
the rules of the Society.

them to buy of you rather than Of an

Two HUNDRED BETrER.-Ou readers
will remember the case in the last Dis.
.trict Court, of Changer VS.. Lanpson, be-
ing suit to recover damages for false
imprisonment, from the President of the
Jones Co. Agricultural Society, who, in
his immense authority as such President,
sent the plaintiff to Jail without ceremo-
ny. A Cedar county jury assessed the
damages in this case at one thousand
dollars, against which great cutlery
was made by the friends Of the defend
ant; and the case was carried to the
Clinton Co. Dist. Court by change of
venue, the verdict having been first set
aside by Judge Rothrock. We learn
from the De Witt Observer that the
Clinton county jury, upon this case
coming up at the recent term, "saw" our
jury's figures, and went two hundred
dollars better, putting the damages
against the defendant at round twelve
hundred.

THE RAILROAD ENTERpRIsE, which
was fully explained in last weeks AID
vERTIsER, and by the success or failure Of
which the question of Tipton's material
advance is to be decided, is now fairly
before our citizens; and they themselves
by their action in the premises, may
make it success, or, by failing to act
may insure its failure. That every own
er Of real estate in Upton and vicinity
will be actually benefitted-m made richer
as matter of dollars and cents, to say
nothing of the comfort and convenience
incident thereto-by direct railroad
communication, east and west, no one
will attempt to disprove or deny. Let
each one then, form as correct an est
mate as possible of what he will be b.n.
Gifted; judge from this what he can af
ford to do in aid Of the road, and then
do it. From the nature of the obliga
ton required-due and payable onl,
when the road is completed and the
cars running thereon-no one can have
any fear of again paying for the benefits
OF railroad and receiving nothing in
return. Moreover, the completion and
operation of q railroad upon the propos
ed line is the only way by which what
has already been done may be utilized
IL it moi better to add something to the
large amounts already paid for railroad
and thereby succeed in obtaining one
than to make what has been given q
total loss because we think it should
have been sufficient for the work? Nc
one who has any interest in railroad
to Upton should stand back now in the
hope that the work may be done with.

number have already been obtained,

A TEAM Runs AWAY WITH A
HEARsE.-A shocking accident happen
ed on Monday while the funeral process
sion of Mrs. John Zeitler was passing
through town ON it's way to the church
where the funeral sermon was to be
preached. When the hearse, at the
head Of the procession, had reached a
point on Cedar Street opposite the Court
House, one of the horses attached-both
of which were young and had been
prancing and curveting from the start
got his hind leg over the tongue, where
upon the team instantly became I'M
manageable. The drivers seat on the
hearse is so constructed as to give no
foothold for pulling or guiding an unru-
ly team, in addition to which, the driv-
er, G. A. Pearson, was encountered with
a pair of large fur gloves, and It was with
difficulty that he kept his seat while the
team turned up on the side valid in front
Of McNamara's, where they ran a few
great boot before Gilbert 4 FOrd's, and
turning off the walk just in time to
miss the hotel sign post. At this point
the driver was thrown off into the mud;
and the team ran to the next corner,
where in attempting to turn to the left
thes overturned the hearse and became
detached from it at the same moment.
On being righted, the hearse was found
to have sustained much injury, and the
coffin within to have had the lid split
by the conclusion.
AS may we'll be supposed, the rela-
tives and friends Of the deceased were
sadly shocked and frightened by the
unfortunate occurrence; and, during the
progress Of the runaway, gave vent to
their feelings by screams and cries. The
coffin was taken from the hearse to a
shop for the necessary repairs; and
thence to the Methodist church, where
the funeral exercises were had.
