GRAND RIDGE Feb 10-We are glad to re.
port good roads once more, which give life TO
business Many loads of grain and hogs have
been brought to our village the past few days,
and mechanics are busy erecting buildings as
though it were autumn. Messrs. Core and
Martz's meat market, now IN course Of cree
ton, is of no mean proportions, and will be
an adornment to the business part Of town.
Mr. Harris who a few months since moved
to Kansas from the southwest part of Farm
Ridge, has Just returned and bought ont Egg.
bert Coles, and is already on the farm. Mr.,
Coles, formerly a dealer in Ottawa, more re
Gently grain dealer in Grand Ridge, it is ru-
mored, intends going into business again in
some neighborlng town. The Car which Mr..
Harris unloaded last Saturday on his return
from Kansas was on the Monday following re-
loaded by another party who intends going
within few miles Of where Mr. Harris re
turned from. No wonder the railroad compa-
MES can advertise cheap homes in the west"
homes so cheap after there that those who
have the means gladly pay for return trip,
while those who have nothing when they get
there have to stay. Such is life
Mr.. Alfred Oxford and bride made their APP
pearance at the c. p. Church last Sunday
when and where they received many congrat
ulations from their numerous friends.
The church above named is now on rollers,
coursing its way toward our village. 1t will
be located in the eastern limits In a few days,
weather permitting.
Your correspondent noted a rather cheeky
item IN the Ottawa Weekly Times of Feb 9th,
pertaining to the moving of the church to our
village. l embraced the first opportunity to
interview the supposed ''chap" who intended
to move to the Ridge, buy lots and build
hail." wondering in my mind what the chap
was going to do with another hall IN Grand
Ridge, there being already two spacious halls
in the zone horse town" The protector in
formed me it was mistake; he had no inten.
ton of building hall, but only a zone horse"
building to be used as lone horse" museum
IN the zone horse town." but further reported
that he had already been defeated in his plan,
stating that he purposed exhibiting in his
zone horse" building only one rare mongrel
specimen, but Chicago company had stolen
march on him and first secured this wonder
full monstrosity, and will have it duly adver-
tized for exhibition in that city under its
proper name. At my interview Mr. chap de.
clned giving it name, but SAID some who
had seen it called it by some of the different
names of the donkey species; Others of the
dromedary species, and Others camel. But
let it 90 by what name it may, 1t seems to utter
something resembling dialect, which under
stood and shaped by the editors pen, forms a
sort of meaningless lone horse" item.

that II we were to keep strict account of
everything we spend we could tell just where
to cut down. I've bought you little account
book, and every Monday morning I'll give
you some money and you can set 1t down on
one side, and then during the week you can
set down on the other side everything you
spend, and then on Saturday night we can go
over 1t and see just where the money goes
and how we can boil things down a little

clergyman kindly furnishing the witnesses
