"a far? Well, / should smile. A

Smith. "What, with curls! and hustle,
and" asked Chappie Jones. Then
a nice little one with pink cheeks and
lips, and slim--""No," persisted Chap
pie Smith. "Just medium size. then-you
know. about so big-Eh?", quiZZed
Jones. NO." continued Smith. Chap
pie Jones was exasperated. He picked
up horse-block, all with his pink kids
and yelled with diabolic fire streaming
out of his eyes, "Does it wear pants and
live in Yale?" "No-o Yesw Smithie

for his good. "Yes: 1t is going to be on

and Mr.. Smith don't speak now.
At the Port Huron FAIR Yale has
been very handsomely represented.
Without doubt we have some elegant
horses within our borders. and some
that would do us credit anywhere.
Messrs. Paisley. Bell. Ney, Richardson,
Beard, and Morrill, have all taken horse
flesh down to the fair We hope that
people from the county will return the
compliment during our fair. Some
special premiums will be given to in
duce large entry of livestock. And
with the newly rebuilt track, which will
be made one of the best country tracks.
we hope and feel confident that we will
have the best display to be seen any
where. Already great many have
shown their willingness to compete.
The strife for premiums will be the
greatest ever known. Let every one
bring their best and induce those from
a distance to be represented in the con-
test.
Thanks to the enterprise and persist
ent effort of James Wallace and A. w.
Ferguson, two of the most live merch-
ants of our live village. list OF special
premiums has been compiled which is
one of the most generous that will be
offered any where. BE sure you look
it over carefully. There are a great
many articles of use to every one which
you can as well have yourself as anyone
else. Moreover, these articles are valu-
able. Since they serve the purpose of
advertisement for these firms to
a certain extent. they are the best
that can be had. See to it that you ap-
propriate some of these things. What
the fair was last year will be no stand
ard for Judging of its success this year,
it is bound to come to grand and
prosperous termination. There are to
be great many individual enterprises
started which will afford lots of fun;
more than a barrel of monkeys.
There is. in the little town of Dean
vile, young man who can vie with
almost any one in Observation-Disclosures /:
so rumor whispers. There are some
vicious little stories told about this fell
low. slyly behind the guarding aprons
of Deanville's twinkling-eyed damsels.
Perhaps it would not be well to tell you
right out all the stories we have ever
heard, but if you will promise not to
tell we will narrate to YOU two little
ones. Well: one day this absent-mind-
ed man was to take his horse to water
He threw the rein over his arm and put
his hands in his pockets. He got to
the well and began to pump; but no
horse came near to drink. The horse
had merely stopped to roll and enjoy
himself. greatly to the gentleman's cha
grin. Then he started after some milk
one day and forgot his hat. When he
arrived at the neighbOr's house he pick
ed up hat and put it on. He wore it
more than a day before he found out
his mistake. How's that? Pretty
good, eh?
y new school catalogue is soon to be
published for the school year of lS9O-9l.
TO all who are acquainted with the
needs of the school this will surely APP
peal as q most worthy enterprise. We
| have good schools; and they should
meet with lively patronage from the
surrounding country. In no way can
they be presented fitly to the people
save through special catalogue. TO
print this catalogue is beyond the means
of the school treasury. 1t will there
fore rest upon the generosity of the
towns merchants entirely to pay for it
! by their patronage of its advertising. AL
ready many of the townspeople have
responded generously, 1t is needless
to say that for town catalogue all the
advertising should be done by towns
people. If necessary the space can be
! filled by city merchants. However, it
is not the wish to injure our home in
terests in this way. To encourage
| everything III our village is WnaC we
are aiming at. We therefore urge all
to assist in this for their own interests.
Farmer Henry had always been
good Republican His father. mother,
aunt and step-mother had all been firm
Republicans before him. Now, when
good thorOughgoing Republican "con-
ceived the idea of starting n paper in
this community" Henry said ''by gosh,
I'll have that fine paper | will, you see,
so help me ginger. And he did. AS
he handed out quarter for four
months subscription" he puckered Up
his amber lined mouth, and calculated:
"by gol darn am going to have paper
that tells me the truth or nothing, even
if it takes all the money get for the
old SOW" And he pinched the poor
American eagle until it squacked.
Well, Farmer Henry had been doting
on the lovely p slaps given the free
traders and others. "By darn, it was
good for 'em," so he thought. But one
cold day he received his paper from the
mail. lie was shivering. "Ill see what
| my paper saws about the weather" NUT
