The New Year

Has opened auspic-
iously for us, and we
hope it has for you.
Since opening trade
has been way ahead of
what we expected. Still
it is not surprising that
trade is good when you
remember that we are
selling groceries cheap
er than any house in
the city. Follow the
crowd if you want to
find the best place to
trade.
This year we are go
ing to knock the bot
tom out of prices, and
sell Groceries cheaper
than ever before. We
are of the opinion that
a nimble dime brings
better returns than a
dead dollar. The gro
Ger who marks his price
way up, thereby allow
ing his goods to be-
come shelf can't
see much to hope for
in the New Year.
We're not built that
way. We're not old in
age, but we're not a
tenderfoot in the gro
Gerry business, and ex-
perlence has taught us
that if a man wishes to
drive bargains, he must
keep prices down.
The grocer often gets
a drubbing at the hands
of women because
goods are not deliver
ed on time. We make
it a point to win smiles
instead of frowns in
this respect, as goods
are always delivered
promptly.
If you have not been
trading with us, we ex-
tend an invitation to
come around and price
goods. No damage
will be done if you do
not buy.
Respectfully,
DICK ROBINSON.

The differences between the promis-
es of 1888 and the performance of 1890
will be apparent to any reader who
will glance at the two tables.
We have exhausted our space but
not our subject. In reserve We have
square yards of statistics to prove that
State publication is delusion and a
snare, vanity and a vexation of spirit.
Had We space, We could prove that the
private publishing houses are publish
ing superior books for less money.
Any district or city board Of education
can, if the books are adopted by the
district buy text books of the private
publishers not only at the rate quoted
but at 20 per cent discount. And this
leads US to the true solution of the text
book problem. Every proposition n that
has been placed before the people in
political platforms provides that the
books shall sell for cost. Massachu-
sets has shown rs q more excellent way
The legislature Of that state has autho-
rized every board of education to buy
all books needed, and the kind they
prefer, and to loan them to the child
rem free Of charge. This is the law We
advocate for Kansas. The free text

county free to select its own books,
secures to the people cheapness, excel
Ience and diversity. The renter who

W.R. High school Notes.

The members Of the High School were
treated to a very interesting talk a few
days ago, by Mr.. Bates Nichols, on gold
and silver mining; also on the manners
and customs OF the people of Mexico. This
talk was greatly enjoyed by all the pupils
who gained therefrom much useful and
valuable information.
The Adelphi Debating Society is well
under way and has a large membership
and attendance and an able corps OF dis
putants. Excellent music is furnished by
the High School Quartette
So far this term we have been honored
by more than the usual number OF visit
ors. We hope this will continue. "Come
one, come all, come everybody who are
interested in this school and in education.
The high school starts out this ear I'M
der very tiattering prospects. The total
enrolment OF pupils is 98-larger than ev-
er before, and probably will be larger
this winter. II is evident that the advan-
tages offered by this school are appreci-
ated here and elsewhere.
Last Thursday night the members of
the Junior class, 20 in number, went on
class ride to Brookfield They started
about $50 D. m. and were photographed
in the wagon by Barnes before starting.
They took supper at "Brookfield Tavern
and came home by moonlight Gin the wee
sma' hours Of the morning" In fact they
never arrived till half past four. That day
general epidemic OF yawning prevailed
in the Junior quarters and something ike
this might be heard:
There aren't any flies on us,
There aren't any flies on US,
There may be a few on the Brookheld
crew,
But there amt any flies on us.n

BETHEL HOME NEWS.
Arrival and Departure ofTrains.

Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin Sturtevant wish to
express their thanks to the ire depart
ment and their neighbors for their prompt
response and assistance at the time then
house caught fire lately.
Rev. j. M. Atwood, formerly OF this
town, but lately of Conn. was in town last
week. He is building a house in West
Randolph and says he intends to make
his future home in that village.
Good tenements are very scarce and in
good demand and in view OF the increas-
ing population that will certainly follow
the erection of the shoe shop and the con-
sequently even greater demand for dwell
ing places, it would seem to be good in
vestment to put up some new houses.
F. c. Chapman, postmaster. at Wood
stock made an inspection of this postoffice
lately under the suggestion of the post
master general. This inspection had
nothing to do with the financial manage
ment of the department but simply relat-
ed to business methods, conveniences and
improvements.
Landlord Newell of the Wilson House
went on strike last week and no longer
puts on or takes off the mail from the
night trains. He says he gets no pay for
it and it costs him good deal OF labor
and expense and he thinks that he has
played the public spirited citizen long
officials had tried to persuade Supt. Ryan
of the Railway mail service that Bethel
could do with a day service as long as
Postmaster Martin lately received letter
from that official asking him as to such
change, to which MIR. Martin answered
very emphatically that it would not.
We were all sad when the news came
that little Susie Alice Lattimer was dead.
She was a beautiful child with laughing
eyes which drew us all to her in love. For
five summers she had seen the flowers
spring up in beauty on the earth. Her
life was entwined in the life of her father
and mother, William G. and Ellen Emery
Lattimer whose home was so pleasant
while she was with them and so desolate
now she is gone. Sept. II, 1891 will be to
them day Of sorrowful memories, for
then she left them. On that Sunday when
her funeral was attended by Rev. s. A.
Parker, many came and looked on her
sweet face, beautiful even in death. How
true it is, "a little child shall lead them"
lead their thoughts and hearts to Heav-
en-. Com.

calves, for the milking qualities certain
ly depreciate at that age when she has
passed her best. But as the calves are
an important part of the income Of a
COW, it may pay to keep the best of the
old COWS on this account. although my
experience has been that old COWS do
not retain their yield of milk so long as
the young ones. AS an instance of the
value of an old COW, might men
ton one which was IA years old
when she brought me her thir-

my best testing and experimental COW,
and which, when between her second

butter, and in four years made 1,649
pounds butter, all of which sold at an
average of 80 cents per pound, bringingin
that time the sum of $S24.55, or over

Cabbage Growing.

In growing cabbage, says Wick,
whether for early. midsummer or win
ter, there are three requirements neces-
sarv to success: good, healthy plants, a
suitable soil, and last but not least, good
cultivation. Our early cabbage is sown
in hot-beds about the middle of Febru-
ary; the young plants are aired fire.
quently, transplanted when small, and
exposed to the cold as.they grow older, SO
as to insure good, stocky, we'll hardened
plan S. The second crop we SOW in cold
frames the last day of March, sparingly
to avoid transplanting; and for winter
use about the goth of April. The
varieties we use are Early Jersey Wake
field for first crop, Vick's All Seasons
for second and third crops. The
All Seasons stand number one, in our
estimation, Notwithstanding the many
excellent kinds mentioned in catalogues;
it is large. firm, sure to head and, in
fact, reliable in all respects. Early cab
bages require very rich soil, while late
ones will do well wherever good crop
of corn can be raised; we pillow our

which characterize his books of account
During the social season he fits about

frequently attending the opera and
play-houses, always having with him
some one of about a score of girls to
whom he pays more or less attention.
When asked recently why he had so
many girls, he SAID
"Oh, all girls talk, as they write, very
much alike, but still there is more
variety in twenty than N one. Besides,
l keep regular set of books at home,
in which | enter every cent spend on
them, and it affords me considerable
amusement. For instance, | charge
cost OF theater tickets, flowers, supper,
and carriage hire, and then credit it
with the amour: of pleasure | had, as
'Passable time Enjoyed the evening
hugely etc. The girls who afford me
the most enjoyment receive the greater
number of invitations, so / think | may
fairly say that | seek relaxation and
pleasure in the same way that | attend
to my business-0n system"
