BOscObel.


The Good Templars of this city
made their first appearance on Wis
consln avenue in their new regalia
last monday evening
The snow and ice in this vicinity
have gradually disappeared and there
is now no danger of bridges on the
Wisconsin or smaller streams being
carried away by freshet.
Sawyer 81 Favor, druggists, have
purchased the store formerly occupi
ed by Meyer Brothers, and will soon
move into the same, and Carrier g.
McSpaden will open up their stock of
hardware as soon as the chance is
given by Sawyer & Favor.
The Central house seems to be
the favorite hotel for travelling men to
stop at over Sunday. On Sunday
last some thirty or more were booked
for rooms, and "Joe" tells us four or
five more were turned over to John
Pepper, who was kind enough to fur
nish them quarters.
1t is now being whispered among
the owners and drivers of fast horses
that the Boscobel Agricultural and
driving park Association will give
Horse Fair on their grounds on the
last of June or the first of July, and
will offer some liberal purses for trot.

-Four car loads of mich cows
were shipped from John Peppers
stocks yards on Sunday evening last
for the New York market, and four
car loads Of fat steers left the same
yards. on Tuesday for the Chicago
market. "Pep" is the oldest stock
buyer in this section of the country

The people of this city are in a
blaze of enthusiasm over a recent &C.
QUESTION to the legal profession from
their midst-Reglum c0mpositum jus
faSque dnimi triumpho Laus Dec.
No doubt there are some cross-grained
and ascetic persons who affect to be-
lieve that the legal profession is retro
grading. They cite the fact in evi
dence that since Webster, Clay, Cal.
houn and other giants-et id genus
omne-passed away, none have come
up to take their vacant places. Hiatus
Ualde defendus. However this may
be, our Boscobel friends are now per-
suaded that this generation will not
have long to complain. Genius must
and inevitably will assert its superior
ity. The Websterian gap will soon
be filled; so they think and cry ecce
homo. There is one fear in this con-
nection, however, which troubles
them What is to become Of the dis
tinguished legal gentlemen of Bosco-
bel who have esteemed themselves, or
have been popularity considered some
thing famous both in law and in poll
tics? De jacta est alea. De mortuiS
nil niSi b9nuna. We have about ex-
hausted our knowledge of Latin in
order to please our Boscobel friends
and make our compliments on a par

pectations they seem to manifest over
their good fortune. Evidently plain

No Excuse FOR BEING SICK. No person can

or any disease of the Throat and Lungs, yet

Many people hesitate to try medicine for
disease, on account Of the expense, connected
with the uncertainty of its tenefting them;
while at the same time, had they confidence
in that remedy, the expense would be the least
objection With this fact in view, we make
the following proposition: Any person suffer
ing with cold cough or sore throat, that will
call at w. B. Bakers or any other drug store
and purchase bottle of HALE'S COUGH
CORDIAL, use one half of it and, if they then
conclude that it is doing them no good, they

money. No medicine ever sold IN this vicini~

RATS. If our rea 1ers are troubled
with rats, perhaps they can take
hint from the style in which u pro-
fessional rat catcher does bis work,
in eastern cities. He wears upon his
feet shoes that are perfectly noiseless.
and, armed with dark lantern, a
pair of tongs, wire cage, enters the
place where his game is supposed to
hide. The binding flash Of his Ian
tern SO astonishes or bewilders or
dumbfounds, or in some other way
effects the rat, that be stands perfect
ly still and allows his assailant to
pick aim up by the tail with the
tongs and safely deposit him 10 the
receptacle provided for his imprison-
ment.

CATTLE SHIPMENT On Tuesday
of last week Lewis Holloway and
VIM. Rowden shipped to Chicago
nine car loads Of stock-128 head of
3 year old steers and so hogs. The
average weight of the steers at mark
ct was 1900 pounds, and price rcceiv-
ed $3.50 per cwt., the gross receipts
for the cattle alone amounting to
$40 900. 90 the same day were also
received lots of cattle from Grant
County shippers as followe: Roberts
4 Jones, PlattevilIe, 80 lead year
olds-average weight 1880 tbs, aver
age price S. 65 per cwt; Thos. Me-
Donald Lancaster, 48 4 yr-average
weight 1850, rate $500; Saml Borah,
Mt. Ida, 32 year, average weight
1925. rate $3.50; VIM. Gates, Bee
town, 32 4 year, average weight 1890
rate $500. The reputation OF Grant
county stock, especially corn Ted,
stands exceedingly high, not only in
quality bu' also in weight, both in
the Chicago and Milwaukee markets,
and probably surpasses any other
county in the State in this respect.
Drovers also inform us that Grant
county likewise takes the lead in the
number Of winter fed cattle annually
marketed. The fact of the superior
quality of our stock should teach the
farmers valuable lesson, that they
might more proftabIy engage them
selves BY entering largely 10 stoc:
raising. Indeed, the superior value
of our cattle as feeders has for several
years past attracted buyers from ad-
joining States. A single buyer from
Central Illinois last year purchased
from parties in lancaster $50 head of
2 year olds for feeding purposes, and
the same party has contracted for
$50 head 20 be delivered at II Ito ways
stock yard April 18th. All this stock
50 shipped are fed for the succeeding
Spring market and will be sold &C
credited as Illinois cattle. If our
farmers would pay | ,ss attention to
raising small grain and more TO grow
ing corn and pasturage, they would
be better able to hold over and feed
their 2 year olds, and thus bring into
the couhty great amount of money
that now flows to Illinois and elses
where. Stock men CLAIM that during
the third year of feeding, cattle
double in value. An acre of corn
will feed one steer and one hog-thus
if farmer, to begin stock raising,
would turn his 20 acres Of wheat TO
corn, be could feed therefrom 20 head
of cattle and the same number of
hogs-doubling the value of the pros
duct, besides enriching the land,
whereas wheat growing impoverishes

SUNDAY.-The bright sunshine Of
last Sunday brought out full atten-
dance at the churches, and at the Con-
gree ational two remarkable fine SER
mons were given by the pastor. In
the morning the twentieth chapter of
Exodus was read, wherein we are in
structed to sin not; and the text was
a portion of the seventh verse, thirty
fourth chapter of Exodus "Keep-
ing mercy for thousands, forgiving
iniquity and transgression and sin,
and that will by no means clear the
guilty In the evening, Mr.. Eaton
spoke from the ninth and tenth verses,
twelfth chapter of Romans: Let
love be without DISSEMINATION. Abhor
that which is evil; cleave to that
which is good. Be kindly affectioned
one to another with brotherly love !;
in honor preferring one another" The
minister endeavored to impress upon
the hearts of his hearers theimportance
of brotherly love ; not to abuse or i'll
treat our neighbor we must love one
another, and not quarrel, for to-mor-
row we shall meet again.

duly observed in Lancaster at the
Catholic church, and Father r. j.
Scott was at his post, with a fall
congregation. As the day is worthy
of particular mention, we condense a
brief history of Easter customs from
the Prairie du Chen Courier, and
other means at our disposal Ia all
the church calendar there is no festi-
val like that of Easter Sunday. The
name is derived from Eostre, a God
dess to whom tho Saxons and other
Northern nations offered sacrifice at
about this season Also the Paascha,
or Jewish Passover, is celebrated at
this season. The days preceding
Easter day are also significant of
some portion of our Savior's life. The
entire week is called Passion week,
and Maunday Thursday and Good
Friday close the solemn season OF
Lent. On Maunday Thursday we
comm ;norate the humility OF Christ
washing his disciples faet Formerly
the church doors stood open ali day,
and in 1862 the Englsh kings COM
menced the custom of washing the
feet of number of poor men, equal
to the years of their age, and of Civ
ing them shoes, stockings and money.
Clothing and money are still given
by deputy, but the feet washing has
been long discontinued. OF Good
Friday and its solemn commemora-
ton there is hardly and person igno-
rant and no follower OF the Cross
who does not on this day follow the
saddest part of our Lords life on
earth, and yet rejoice, with fearful
gratitude, that q died to save man"
1t is strict fast day. In Pennsyl-
vania it is legal holiday by State
statute In Engl4nd it is a govern
mont holiday, and hot crcss-buns are
eaten, in London, for breakfast, on
this day. There is superstition that
a hot cross bun, preserved from one
Good Friday to another, will prevent
an attack of whooping-cough. With
Easter dawn the festival begins. In
various countries some peculiar GUS
toms are in vogue. easter eggs"
are well known, and the various
ways of coloring and adorning them.
Cracking, or pecking eggs is a sport
among boys. In Russia they are
given and taken with the beautiful
salutation and countersigD, -"Christ
is arisen"-"Yes, He is arisen. "
Churches and dwellings are decked
with flowers, and preparations
for holiday made and, to insure
good fortune, to this day the old
people repeat this courlet:
At Easter, let your clothes be new,
Or else be sure you will it rue.
Easter day is always the first Sum-
day after tho full moon, which hap
pened upon or next after the 21st of
March. This year the IN Don was full
on the 21st Of March, which also hap
pened to be Sunday Therefore,
Easter fell on last Sunday, the % b
OF March. This is within six days Of
the earl s't period on which il can
occur The earliest possible date for
the oooarrance Of & .ster is the 22d
of Mlrc1, And th3 Latest the 18th of
April. rae5e extreme limits are,
however, seldom reached. La 1861
and 1918 Easter fell on the 22i of
March, but this viii not happen

THE SPRING FEVER. The Tribune
gives excellent advice, when it says
that warm and comfortable clothing
is the best defence which we can
make against the foggy damp and
death. While on the other hand, if
we do not actually resort to tonics,
every effort should be made to rein
vigorate the failing system. Neces-
sarily, the rich and even gross food
which we can digest in winter is re-
jeoted now, and the lighter vegetable
diet of the spring takes it place. But
the change should not be too sudden
care should be taken that the supply
of phosphate3 DO kept up IN some
articles of daily diet. The Spring

all of US before many days, is not a
