variety of dry goods and notions, and sells
nice rusching at sc. a yard. He also sells

postponed until Gentle Anna should
present more smiling cOuntenance.
Last week occurred the Golden Wedding
of Rev. }. S. Rounce, celebrated at North
field, where he preached several years ago
and where he has many true friends. Mr..
Aherns circulated a subscription and soon
raised enough to add twenty dollar gold
piece to the pyramid at the wedding and have
few dollars in reserve for Mr.. Rounce when
he comes as token of the esteem of the
citizens of Lyle. When you want subscrip-
ton circulated for any good object, get Mr..
Aherns interested and it will be success.
Another breakman killed yesterday on the
Iowa Central. His name was McGinnis. 1t
is supposed he lost his hold while getting
from the to the tender. He had aged
parents depending on him largely for sup
port. Fortunately for them he had his life
insured and left them $1,000 insurance. Every
person who is not possessed of abundance
should carry a life insurance. If any In
surance Company should get application in
consequence of this hint and feel under obi
cation to the writer just pay said per cent
to the TRANSCRIPT to his credit.

wind last week several chmnevs burned out

most of the people know, but some do not
When you know that the chimney is on fire
throw quantity of salt on the fire in the
stove and it will extinguish the fire in the
chimney. Don't you forget it. We wish to
jog the memory Of the citizens Of Lyle about
something that has been over looked in
every instance as far as we know when we
have had the alarm of fire. The town he's
provided the fire extinguishing tubes and not
one OF them has been carried oct yet. Next
time don't forget them.
