How TO Keep q Situation.

Lay it down as foundation rule, that
you will be faithful in that which is least.
Pick up the loose nails, bits of twine'
clean wrapping paper. and put them in
their places. Be ready to throw in an
odd half hour or hours time, when it will
be an accommodation and don't seem to
make . merit of it. Do it heartily
Though not word be said, DO sure your
employer will make q note Of it. Make
yourself indispensable to him, and he will
lose many of the opposite kind before he
will part with you. Those young men
who watch the time, to see the very sec.
eond their working hour is uo who leave
no matter what state the work may be in
at precisely the instant /; who calculate
the extra amount thoy can slight their
work and yet not get rep'oved /; who are
lavish of their employers goods, will al
ways be first to receive notice when times
a:e dull that their services are no long,
required. Then serve your employer as
friend, in due time he will be q true friend
20 you.

RIDGEWAY.

Mr. EasroB:
A word in the CHsoNIcLE now and then
suits us VERY well to show our neighbors
that we are upon the list.
TIE farmers here are expecting to have
good crops this year. and so far, the pros
poets are good. The wheat and oats crop
are looking favorable, although there are
rumors that the wheat bugs are at work.
The corn Is behind to what 1t was this
time last year, but it has . good color and
ia doing well. Your article some time ago
that the potato bug was disappearing does
not apply to Ridgeway, for we can furnish
thousands of them on short notice.
The 4th of July is at hand and the good
people of this place have concluded to
make donation upon that day to Mrs.
Davies, wife of John II. Davies. This
woman has been much troubled of late
years with a diseased foot; they have
tried fourteen different doctors and paid
great sums Of money, and all to no pur-
pose. She has now concluded to 60 to
Liverpool, having heard that there is
medical firm there that can cure such dis,
eases, and if they fail, to have her foo,
amputated. The good feeling people Of
this place have determined to help her,
~ their own means are very limited. A
great sum Of money will DO required, as
her husband will have to accompany her,
and they ask tho friends of the cause in
the surrounding neighborhoods to help
also. The object is we'll worthy the at
,cntion Of all. The woman is from high
circle. being daughter of the late John
L. Jones. The leading speakers Of the
place will be on hand and do their best
Several from your village and from the
Grove have also promised to come. Rev.
John Davies from Pecatonica will be here
and deliver an address, and Trebor will
also be here and speak piece, and all are
aware that he can speak piece to suit.
A good time is expected, the right kind of
hands have taken hold in preparing :he
accommodations, and this part will surely
come up to the mark. We say, come all

Patent Fire and Damp Proof
AIuminous Paper Board.

The best known substitute for plaster
ing. 1t is equally good for sheathing or
plastering, and has not the offensive odor
of tarred or resin board.
1t is a perfect non conductor of heat
and cold. II will save its cost in fuel in
short time. Wall paper will adhere to it
without diScoloration, or peeling of, as no
greasy substance is used in its preparation.
1t will not increase your insurance, be-
cause it is not saturated with any inham-
mable substance. Rats or mice will not
touch it, owing to chemicals used in its
preparation.
1t is affected neither by heat, cold, frost
or dampness. 1t makes house cooler in
summer and warmer in winter.
