Burnett County Sentinel: "The
cranberry marshes look well and
good crop is expected"

Plain Facts is the title of work
now being introduced in this village,
which commends itself to careful ex.
animation and place in every family.
The work comes well recommended,
is written in popular and healthy
style, and is got up in form well cal
culated to study. The author, DIR.
Kellogg, of Michigan, has national
Repatriation, and it is work that
will give excellent satisfaction.
l have made an examination of the
work entitled "Plain Facts" by DIR.
Kellogg, and am satisfied that it is q
work possessing great merit. The
author seems to be well versed in the
subjects discussed, and the moral tone
of the book is elevating and pure. If
the advice given were universally fol-
lowed, it would result in good to the
human family. l.. G. BLANCHARD.
Judge Sixth judicial District. Iowa.
After carefully examining "Plain
Facts" | take great pleasure in rec
ommending it to the thoughtful con-
sideration of all parents, and especial
" do wish it in the hands of every
Young man and woman of our country.
In my judgment it is one of the
very best books published on the sub
ject. G. L. WILBUR, NJ. ID.
Supt. of Asylum for Feeble Minded
Lincoln, Ill.
In what you say concerning the pro-
priety of imparting information to
children, and in your sharp, pungent
censure of mock modesty, | heartily
concur. l sincerely wish that it could
find its way into every household of
the nation. A just and full criticism
of the book might we'll be expressed
in few words: 1t is pure book, a
good book, brave book and an able
book. b. X. ELLIOTT,
Judge Supreme Court, Indianapolis,
Indiana.
Having carefully examined "Plain
Facts for Young and Old,' by j. II.
Kellogg, | cheerfully recommend it to
parents as a promoter of morals, tenn
perance and science. 1t should find a
place in every library The subjects
treated are of the greatest Importance
to the human family and should be
understood by all.

Burglars.

River Falls seems to be infested
with set of sneak thieves. Last
Tuesday evening the house of +. j.
Burhyte was entered through the
north parlor window, and passing in
to the dining.room the thief removed
the lower sash from the west window,
opening on the porch, probably
with view of making an easy escape
with his plumber. The window acct.
dentally fell, breaking pane of glass,
which aroused the household and the
burgular took flight without having
secured any booty. Last night the
House of A. ]. Mckay was entered
and the clothing of Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Kay were removed from their
bedroom, Mr.. Ms pants being
left in the yard with the pockets rihed
of Il few cents, the only loss sustained.
The dwellings of Mrs. Lyman Pow.
ell and C. II. Morse were also entered
daring the night. At the former en-
trance was effected through cham
Der window by means of a ladder, and
a watch chain and $3.50 taken from
Frank Bush. a boarder. At the lat
ter entrance was obtained through the
pantry window, but on discovering
the family journal upon the shelves
tia burglar probably comprehended
the situation at once and departed; or
it may be the form of Mrs. NJ. en- desh-
abiIie who went to the kitchen at mid
night holy hour to procure milk for
her iavenous offspring struck terror to
the villains. The Adventists' tent
WAS also raided, and SIS and watch
and chain stolen from one of the FL
ders who was sleeping therein.
