County Talk,
!, They say the authors spelling was planned
To make the people pronounce lolande;
And who could think 'twould be found hand
To use the cumbrOus form lOlandc?
i Though those wdo wished a line for Iollau
Were doubtless welcome to Yolande;
But now upon us it has dawued
'Twere better far to say fOlande.

Tonica Necs Supervisor Burgess ha
returned from Ottawa whittier me wa
called on duty as one of the committee OF
heating the court house. He thinks TIT
new boilers VIII give entire satisfaction
and obvlate all complaint in the future
Now let the county seat papers bottle thei
racket and give due credit to faithful ant
honest committee.

\ SregtoI man who INDUCES the recrc
alton of q monthly drunk endeavored t.
make a bargain with the officers by which
he should be allowed to come to town and
get drunk once month. He offered to
pay $50 as a license fee, which should be
IN fnll for all fines and costs, but the VII
laIns basely reject the offer, and run HIM in
a. OF old. It's a PHYS man can't be al
lowed to eConomlse when the fit is on him.
Wenona Iuder: Now the committee
have made good the defect in the heating
apparatus, it can be said La Sale county
has one OF the cheapest and best court
houses in Illlnols-cheapest because there
were no big steals In its construction, and
best because 1t answers all required of it,
The Wenona Iadkr suggests this From
present prospects farmers Of this locality
will find it necessary 20 crib some very
soft corn this fall. A friend suggests what
appears! 20 be q very good scheme to assist
very materially IN preserving the crop. 1t
Is simply to lay tile, either from bottom to
top of crib, or from either side. In fact
almost any way that will advantageously
carry fresh air through the corn. The tile
will act as vcntilator, and this year some
thing OF the kind seems necessary to keep
the corn from sporting after 1t is crlbDcd.
Late hours, irregular habits and want of
attention to diet, are common errors with
most young men, and these gradually but
at first lmperceptibly undermine the health
and lay the foundation for various forms of
disease IN alter life. 1t is very difficult to
make young persons comprehend this.
They, frequently sit up as late as twelve
one or two o'clock, without experiencing
any Ill effects; they go without "A meal to-
day ami tomorrow eat to repletIon with
only temporary Inconvenience. One night
they will sleep three or four hours and the
next nine or ten or one night IN their
eagerncss to get away into some agreeable
they will take no food at all and
the next perhaps they will eat hearty sup
per and go TO bed upon 1t. These with va
rious other irregularities are common to
the majority of young men, and are, as
lust stated, the cause of much bad health in
mature life. Indeed nearly all the shat
tered constitutions with which too many
are cursed, are the result of disregard to
the piaincst precepts of health in early life.
The KBnkakce gazette reports new and
clever swlnding game being perpetratted
IN Rockville last Friday. \ young man
presented himself at the residence OF Char,
les Devereaux zone of the directors of the
directors of the school districD and inform
ed Mrs. DevereauX that he was the assist
ant county superintendent and wished to
examine Mr.. DevereauXs order book lg-
norant of the fact that kankakee has no
such official as an assistant superintend-
emit" or that he had any business with the
directors order books under any circum-
stances, she allowed HIM the privilege.
