Students, especially of the higher
grades should be impressed with the
thought that their school experience
ought to be an earnest work. The
knowledge that they may acquire and
the mental habits that they may form
during very few years of their pre-
sent life will determine to great extent
theis futures. Can they, then, afford to
slight their school duties? Should they
not perform them with the same earnest
activity and conscientious fidelity that
would be required for success in other
yocations?

AMONG Lancaster visitors, last week,
was Mr. Dwight Parker, of Fennimore.
Mr.. Parker had just returned from Chi
cago, where he had been marketing two
carloads of fine cattle, the product OF
his stock farm. They had been on full
feed little more than one hundred DAYS,
and their average weight, at home, was
fifteen hundred pounds. One car aver
aged sixteen hundred pounds, and were
bought for expectation to England.
This is the more noticeable, as it is said
very few export cattle come from Wis
onsin. 1t will be seen then that Grant
County comes to the fore, as it is always
sure to do, in the stock line.
SAYS the Dodgeville Sun: 1--WE learn
that some of the parties here who have
suffered damage on account of the fail
ure of the Simon Comedy Company to
fill their engagement here last week,
have commenced suit by attachment
and have attached some of their goods
which were sent here from Madison be-
fore they abandoned their intention of
coming here. The probability is now
that real, live, kicking, sure-enough
justice of the peace and two lawyers,
will be added to their cast of characters
in their great Comedy of the Judge"
and that the orchestra will consist of
a constable and a'horse and cart"
