On November 28th, a ten pound
boy asked for lodgings at our house
and since then we have received word
that our brother Ernest and wife, in
Central City, Colorado, are rejoicing
over a similar arrival, ten pound
boy, on the. 4th of December. We
had hardly time to catch our breath
before Higbee broke the news TO US by
postal that they too had boy weigh
ing nearly II pounds. We are now
breathing quietly though we expect to
hear similar news from our Minnesota
relatives, as the climate there is par
ercellance. Who says we are not
happy?

The OSHKOSH Times says:-The
question is often asked about here,
why is it that r. G. Campbell, of
Berlin, furnished the majority of
monuments and tombstones in this
vicinity, The answer is, plainly, be-
cause he has had twenty years expert
ence In this section Of country and
knows what nearly every family wants
which is quite serious matter to de-
eide sometimes His charges are al
ways reasonable, and the workmanship
as good as the best. So it will pay
parties who wish anything in his line
to drop him a letter to that effect, OF
wait until Mr.. G. or some of his
agents call on them with designs and
specimens of different kinds of mar
bic and granite which he will furnish
on short notice.
The above question and answer APP
plies equally we'll to this vicinity, as
we find NJ. G. puts up by far the
most and best work in our cemeteries.

The sermon and lecture delivered by
Rev j f. Smith, of Marsovan, Tur-
key, last Sabbath morning and evening
was instructive and entertaining In
his morning sermon he spoke Of the
necessity of the Cong. churches doing
more than they do for the support of
the American Foreign Missionary So
ciety. His lecture in the evening was
on the habits of the people, their
manner of living, and the geography
Of the country He also had a large
map of Turkey, showing the larger
cities and the amount of territory the
missionaries were working in. He
told Of the advancement the Turks and
Armenians had made in the I9 years
Of his life among them. He spoke OF
the hardships as also the pleasure the
missionaries enjoy in their labors with
them. He spoke of the people as
slow to learn and that they live now
in the interior a good deal as they did
in the time Of Christ. His audience
was large and appreciative.

The jury in the case of Geo. B.
Mcmillan against S. n. Whittlesey
returned verdict in favor of plaintiff
for S110. This case lasted two and
one-half days, involving cost to the
county for court expenses of about
$500 say nothing of the expense
to the parties in time and money. We
are safe in estimating the entire cost
OF this case since it was commenced
at 500, and what is there to show for
this expense. Would it not have been
much better for all concerned to have
arbitrated their little differences and
thereby have saved this large waste of
time and money? All that either
side could ask would be fair adjust
ment and why could not three disin-
terested neighbors have done as well
as the jury has finally done and that
without expense to any one? 1t seems
a little foolish for men to rush into
court with the slightest pretext, where
but little justice is secured after all
Arbitrate your little differences and
beware Of the counsel given by some
attorneys to fight your case through.
