Crysler & Manner have opened
new grocery store at Durand where
they will keep on sale all articles in
their line. They are young men of
good business habits and they should
be well patronized by those around
Durand. Call on them in the old

"Our Continent" is fast becoming
one of the most popular magazines
in the country. The last number is
indeed beautiful one. Besides
large amount of reading matter, it
contains several fine portraits, that of
Bronson Alcott being of more than
usual interest as the life of this

sickness.

Vandekarr should cause the people

Prof. Douglass Evolutionary class,
has the following concerning an
Owosso boy: "The third and fifth
selections were scenes from the
School for Scandal between Sir Peter
and Lady Teazle, given in costume

scenes very amusing" =
The hunting party consisting Of
Messrs. Warner and Butler, of Mead

several weeks since as having gone

day. During their stay in the woods
they killed twenty-five deer, great
many duck and caught an almost in
Vulnerable number of Black Bass and
Pickerel They report having a
very pleasant time and being more
fortunate than their friends in neigh

befell any of them. Mr.. Geo. Car
penter has our thanks for several
pounds of venison.
There are two prominent notices
which induces people to witness a
thrilling drama. One is to forget
their own sorrows, by seeing others
depicted wildly, the other, to drown
business cares, and domestic trials, by
spending an evening where one can
enjoy hearty laugh. We are to have
