The Humphrey Independent has
the following complimentary remarks
to make of the congregation of Platte

the Columbus city schools were duly
represented:
1--WE had always supposed until we
came to Platte county that school
ma'am was q young lady that was
sort of q girl of the period. liked
buggy rides, moonlight nights, senti-
ment, ETC., and we were surprised
that the schools of the county, modes
of discipline and kindred subjects
should be the chief subject of conver-
sstion. Not even Humphrey, with
it's rural attractions, had the interest
necessary to draw their minds from
the all-absorbing theme of school
work. Being rusty in modern school
modes and appliances. we were as
pupil sitting at the masters feet.

"A runaway one day last week in
the vicinity of the Clother House
caused eye witnesses to fairly hold
their breath for fear of the safety of q
woman whose life seemed imperilled.
She was seated in q single convey
ance and the horse attached was Wild
ly dashing in the direction of the
Q. P. depot. As the first crossing
was struck by the vehicle the shock
threw the woman from her seat and
pitched her head first between the
thills at the feet Of the horse. Those
who witnessed the accident fully ex-
pected to find the woman badly in
iured if not killed. but were much
relieved to see her regain her feet
and make off after the runaway sp-
parently uninjured.

Be patient and forbearing with
your debtors, honest and prompt As
possible with your creditors, live at
the smsllest expense possible consist

piness of yourself and family, quit
talking about hard times, and they

for those used to plenty to surrender
their luxuries than for the poor to
give up full fare, however coarse it

hard times are when there is lack of
sustensnce for the people, but now
provisions are 30 plentiful and cheap
that consuming them is the surest
way to dispose of them.
