About Is years ago j. M. Jack
son, bought the Urias B. Buskirk
farm for thessum of $500. The
Jackson's were workers, but their
work was saw-loging, and only
raised what they could use them
selves. In the year 1888 Moses
Mounts bought the farm, and the
consideration was $45O0. Since
that time Mr.. Mounts has built,
not the finest, but the best resi-
dence in the county. He has also
built outhouses and agood barn.
His net income is now five hun
dred dollars per annum. II the
citizens of this comfy will go TO
Moses Mounts barn and corn crib
they will see they lack industry.
Mr.. j. s. DeJarnatt is entitled TO
the praise for the architecture and
work ON Mr.. Mounts residence.

A great many Democrats in the

A suspicious subscriber, who
found a spider in his paper wants
to know if it is considered bad
omen. Nothing of the kind.
The spider was merely looking

across his store door and be free
from disturbance.
An exchange states that you
can read the proof of newspaper
article three or four times, and re-
peatedly pass the same mistake
without seeing it. All newspaper
men tell you so. But as soon as
the press is started and the paper
| is printed in its complete shape,
there stands the error in front Of
you so big that you can't see any
thing else. lisa strange fact and
is probably the same reason why
it is SO easy to edit newspaper
after it is printed.

He is always interesting, and is
quite popular with the people Of
