WORTHY or CONFIDENCE

Many of the testimonials received by
DIR. Otterbourg, of the Kansas City
Medical Dispensary read like miracles,
so marvellous have been many of the
cures he has effected. The more diff.
cult the case the better he is pleased to
undertake it, if he sees chance of a
cure being effected, and he brings to
the realization of this possibility Il very
rare medical skill and experience. If
the case is hopeless, when consultation
with him is had, he does not deceive
the patient, as so many physicians do.
The DR.. establishes himself immedi-
ately in the confidence of his patients,
as all who have been trea ted by him
can testify. No physician in the west
has such an extensive practice ~ he
has, and he has obtained it by his very
rare medical knowledge and fair and
upright dealings with all his patients.

We understand That the commission
ers, at their last meeting, on Tuesday,
discussed the propriety of erecting
vaults for the protection Of the county
records. 1t seems to US that this is u
thing that should be done, and quick
~. While, indeed, 1t il altogether
likely that we may not have fire for
ten years, il IL possible that the records
might burn tomorrow.
The Christian church social ut the
court house Tuesday evening was
somewhat interfered with by the I'M
pleasant weather, but there was fair
attendance nevertheless and those
present spent very pleasant evening.
The band played number of pieces
which were highly appreciated. We
understand that the net proceeds of
the social were about $500.
Notwithstanding the bad weather
last Friday night, a good number as
sembled at the court house to hear the
Liteary Union programme. Miss
Christian, Mrs. Beggs, J. H. Fisher,
A. c. Scott and DIR. w. d. Scott were
the performers. In addition to these,
Mr.. Gardner, who is visiting here. re-
cited most amusing parody on POe's
Raven" and delighted the audience
immensely.
Lack of space prevented us last
week from calling atten-
ton TO Judgs Talcott's professional
card. The Judge occupies the same
office which he did during his Judge
ship, and is already attaining a large
practice. He is at present engaged al
so in the preparation of book that
will be of great interest to the attor-
neys of Kansas, in which he is now
ably assisted by c. + Benton.
BY reference to advertisement and
notices in local columns, it will be seen
that Mr.. J.J. Casmire has taken Mr..
Wigs as partner in the hardware
business and the firm is row known.as
j. j. Casmire & Co. The head of the
new firm is too well known to need in
PRODUCTION, while Mr.. Wigs, during
his short residence here has establish
ed character, as a gentleman and a
good business man, that he may well
be proud Of. The new firm is strong
one.

A GOOD M I'VE.

At the last meeting of the city coun.
ell the following resolution was
adopted:
ResOiued, That all sidewalks that
may be constructed, Reconstructed four
feet i'm width or over, with what is
known as Fort Scott or Parsons flag
ging," the City will pay on the same
ut the rate of ten cents per lineal foot.
Said walk to he accepted by the proper
committee on streets and alleys.
AS step to encourage the building
of permanent sidewalks the action of
the council should certainly be COM
mended. With this help from the city,
stone side walks that will last a life
time can be built ut cost very little
above the cost of board walks that will
lie worn out in a few years. 1t is to be
hoped that all the side walks that are
put down in the future will be of flag
ItuIp.

Uncle Esek's Wisdom.

You can encourage the tinid, re.
strain the bold, punish the wick
ed, but for the weak there is no help.
The most reliable people we have
are those whose brains are located
in their heads.
There is nothing like necessity to
quicken a mani once knew man
who was the LATEST fellow on earth,
until he lost leg by accident, after
that no able bodied man could get
around the village as quick as he
could on one leg and a crutch.
Don't go back, my friend, after
many years, to your old home ex.
pecting to be made happy; for, il
you ever happened to commit an in.
discretion in your boyhood, people
will remember nothing but that, and
most OF them will remind you Of it.
What the world wants the most is
novelty and dispatch. Civilization
has so quckened all things, that,
before another hundred years rolls
around, we shall require quicker
kind of lightning than we have now
to do our telegraph business with.
There are those so pure that they
are continually repenting of sins
they haven't the pluck to commit.
Learning seems to be rapidly driv.
ing all the common sense out of the
world Uncle Essex.

A Word for the cranks.

Cranks, my son 7 The world is full
of them. What would we do were it
not for the cranksi How slowly the
tired old world would move, did not
the cranks keep it rushing along.
Columbus was a crank on the sub.
ject of American discovery and cir
cumnavigation and at last he met
the fate of most franks, was thrown
into prison and died in poverty and
disgrace. Greatly veaerated now !
Oh, yes, Telemachus, we usually es-
TEEN crank most profoundly after
we starve him to death.
Harvey was a crank on the circu-
lation of the blood; Calico was an
astronomical crank; Fulton was a
crank on the subject Of steam navi-
CATION; Morse was a telegraph crank ;
all the old abolitionists were cranks.
The Pilgrim fathers were cranks ;
John Bunyan was crank; any
man who doesn't think as You do,
my son, is crank. And by and by
the crank you despise will have his
name in every mans mouth and q
half completed monument to his
memory crumbling down in o dozen
cities, while nobody outside of your
native village will know that you
everlived.
Deal gently with the crank, my
boy. OF course, some cranks are
crankier than others, but do you be
very slow to sDeer at a man because
he knows only one thing and you
can't understand him. A crank,
Telemachus, is thing that turns
something; it makes the wheels go
rouud; it insures progress. True, it
turns the same wheel all the time
and it can't do nothing else, but
that's what keeps the ship going
ahead. The thing that goes in for
variety, versatility, that changes its
position a hundred times a day,
that is no crank; that is the wealth
er vane, my son.
WHAT You nevertheless thank
heaven that you are not crank !
Don't do that, my son. Maybe you
couldn't be a crank it you would.
Heaven is not very particular when
it wants weather vane; almost
any man will do for that. But
when it wants a crank, my boy, it
looks about very carefully for the
best man in the community. Before
you thank heaven that you are not
a crank examine yourself carefully
and see what is the great deficiency
that debars you from such an election.
Bardette.
