The highway commissioners of the
various towns in Will county have in
augurated an admirable practice Of
meeting in body at the county seat
at least twice year for the purpose of
comparing notes and deyising ways to
prosecute the road work of the county
on some rational, systematic plan. 1t
is an example that ought by all means
to be followed in this county, at least
until some legislature Of Illinois shall
come into existence that shall so far
excel all its predecessors in practical
common sense as to be able to give the
state a rational road law. The simple
elements of such law are, that there
shall be no road district smaller than
at least whole county, and that not
a dollar shall be expended in that dis
trict except under the direction OF a
competent engineer and on work Of a
permanent character.

Anybody that has ever had the
toothache, and had it bad, has no
doubt, in the absence Of any other
known remedy, been almost ready for
the only sure, though rather sweeping
one of having his head cut off. An eX-

no such extreme measure is necessary,
making the statement, on the author
ity of an eminent physician, that all
aches and pains, such as toothache and
neuralgia, can be cured by simply
blowing up the sufferers nose pinch
of common salt. The relief is said TO
be instantaneous and not at all dan
gerOus, SO there can be no harm in suf-
ferers irving it for themselves.

On going home the other evening at
Peru Frank Porch, finding the folks
absent, lighted a lamp, donned clean
dickey, extinguished the light and
went out. An hour later smoke was
seen issuing from the window of the
house, the door was forced, and it was
found that Frank, by carelessly throw
ing the match with which he had
lighted the lamp into basket filed
with clothes had set them on fire. An
hour later the house would have been
in flames and there would have been
material for an interesting newspaper
item. AS it was, the basket was pitch
ed out of the window and so the whole
business stupidity ended.

We have neither time nor access to
SPACE sufficient to enable US to chron-
is''e'Gsiy vicissitudes so common to
our regenerated and romantic village.
So marked and rapid have been
the many advances in business circles
that we witnessed seventeen wagons
drawn by fifty-two horses, pass our
window en- route to the depot to load
with freight. 1t was Accident rep
resented in all her glory.
There was also an additional force
of horses and wagons here from more
remote parts, aggregating in all sew
enty.six horses and twenty three
wagons. Considerable confusion re-
tarded the speedy delivery of goods
and chattels, owing to the fact that
no authorized agent has yet been ap-
pointed to fill the position of ticket
and freight agent. We do not wish
to he understood as debating to the
B.&O. officials when we note the
necessity of having a duly authoriz-
ed agent to represent the Railroad
Company's interest and meet out the
assigned chattels to its worthy pa.
trnns, and prevent miscreants from
further deprcdations. Packages have
been relieved of a portion of their
contents in broad daylight.
This Is making an early beginning,
anu it is the earnest desire of all pa
irons to suppress it in the bud and
we feel that 1t can only be accomp-
Iished by the instrumentality of a
diligent appointee in charge of the
station now at our disposal.

We understand that the Principal

for admission. hut owing to lack OF
room. &C., has been unable to admit
more than the usual limited number.
During the four years il has been In
existence this school has commended
itself as a reliable aid to education,
and as it aims to supplement the
work of the Public Schools, it has
just claim upon the residents of this
county for such patronage AS will
warrant the erection of new buildings
IN place of the present inadequate
Study Hall. We are confident that
with further corporation and little
outlay the school would be enlarged
to such an extent and under such
regulations as to materially aid in
the educational development of our
county. II is reliable home insti,

patrons are striving.
