man comes in and stops his REGISTER
because 1t costs $3.50 q year and SUD-
scribes instead for some eastern paper
because 1t only costs Sl.OO year.
Somehow we always feel sorry for the
family of a man who does that. A
man who is not willing to pay a cent q
week to furnish his children the only
paper that In the nature Of things they
care to read, the paper that prints
their names when they do well at
school, that gives q report OF their
little parties and their Sunday school
and literary society entertainments,
man who is not willing to pay q cent q
,yeek to furnish his wife paper that
will tell her what her neighbors are
doing, note the goings and comings of
her friends, report the small news OF
the community so dear to every wo-
mans heart. q man who Is not willing
to pay cent q ,Ceek for paper that
would keep him posted ON the official
affairs of his county, that would give
him the home markets, that would
publish his advertisements free Of
charge, that would Inform him of the
political action of his own county and
lState,-the man who is not willing
to spend a cent q Week for all these
things which his foreign paper cannot
possibly give him, surely has hard
heart and an almighty close fist. We
are sorry for his family.
My speciality is drugs and medicines.

Ottawd Republican: Rev. Z. G..
Boaz Yesterday notified Presiding
Elder Chaffee that he desired to resign
the pastorate of the First NJ E. church
of this city, his resignation to take eff
feet at once. 1t was accepted. The
church will be in charge Of the presid-
ing elder until q permanent arrange
ment can be made.
The man who has been most violent
and unmeasured In his abuse of the
REGISTER, even advising the farmers
to boycott 1t, has not taken the paper
for more than two years. But he bor-
rows every number from some of his
neighbors so that he may have some
thing new to criticise and denounce!
1t seems to US that to borrow q paper
Just for the sake of being able to abuse
| 1t, is about the very acme of meanness.
Wonder IL The Man isn't little bit
ashamed of himself as he reads this
item?

J. w. Wilmington, of the Usage, a
man who believes In absolute free
trade, who thinks q great deal of
Plumb and not little bit of Ingalls,,
who thinks that the Alliance is a
straight Union Labor scheme, who
was an original Greenbacker and new
er got over it, and who has no more
use for Democrat than he has for a
Republican, was In town Monday and
came up to renew his allegiance to the
REGISTER.

money out of it, I can and will sell

We wonder how many men there
are in Allen county who never give
their wife O Christmas present? If

Several of our citizens went out to
Annapolis two or three years ago,
when that town was the center of the
universe, and bought themselves rich
in real estate. The boom sort o. drop
ped aud the aforesaid citizens have
submitted to large amount of good
natured chatting about their invest
ment. 1t begins to LOOK now though
as if the laugh might be on the other
side, after all, which every body hopes
it will. A dispatch dated last Satur-
