An exchange makes this suggestion In
all towns where a newspaper is published
every business man should advertise in it,
if it is nothing more than card stating his

town is full of business men, The paper
finds its way into thousands Of places where
hand bills cannot reach card in paper
is travelling signboard and can be seen by
every reader Think Of these things
The Newark N. j. Sunday Call says:
One Of our Cincinnati exchanges cites the
case of Mr.. Haldeman, OF the Louisville

the capacity to turn out 900, 900 matches

A little scare was created ON Tuesday |
morning by the report that smallpox was in |
The town. The report was. indeed true |
but no cause of alarm was apparent. Mr..
Dunnebeck went to Chicago few days ago.
md, as a result, is victim to the too great
y feared disease Smallpo is contagious,
out contagion means contact, and unless
coming in direct contact with the disease
here is no danger. Every precaution has
been taken by Mr.. Dunnebeck's family and |
BY the city officials to prevent any spread,
md indeed to preclude any possibility of
'uch an event. The unfortunate victim has
been placed in an entirely isolated position,
Ind no sort of danger can be apprehended
We are glad TO observe that our citizens take
10 more notice of the fact that Mr.. Dunno
)eck has smallpox than they would if he had
Vhooping cough, and pass and repass, aud
10 their business in the same channels as
'ver, and they are no more proof against it

Again we are called upon to record the |
death of one Of the old pioneers of the |
county. Mr.. Fitch A. Higgins, one Of the |
oldest residents in the county. died on Satur |
day last and was hurried on Tuesday, his |
funeral taking place a. the Congregational |
church Mr.. H. was born h Milford, Conn.,,
June II, 1899. and was the eighth of ten |
of whom only younger brother |
and sister now survive, residing in the native |
state. Mr. Higgins came to Kenosha, or |
Southport, in February 1896, when there |
was only one shanty Oh the beach. He took |
up and entered the eighty acres a land |
upon which he afterward lived and died. |
His first wife died four years after his ar. |
rival here, and he subsequently married |
again and lived with his second wife for |
forty years. There are now living four
daughters by The first wife. and two cons,
Charles and Frederick. by the second. He
also left twenty nine grandchildren, thirty
seven great grandchildren. and four great.
great. grandchildren. When Mr.. Higgins
came TO Wisconsin he was poor. but, by in
dustry and frugality. he accumulated large
estate, which, though depleted in later years,
is handsome legacy to his family. Coming
from the old New England stock. such as
il was in times which tried mems souls, he
was perhaps of that rigorous nature which
did not always assimilate with the free vest
ern customs, still his old theory that a penny
saved is as good as penny earned, is one
well worthy u imitation. Mr. Higgins was
among The first who organized the Congre-
gational church in this city in 1898, and has
always been a supporter Of the same. Some
four or five years ago Mr.. Higgins narrowly
