1t was great shock to the people If
this community to hear Of the death OF
Hamilton Wreath. of Hillsdale. He was
considered good man and in conse-
quence was highly respected.
We msy rest assured of one thing that
the farmers have about decided that for
besrsnce has ceased to be virtue aud
| that they don't intend to be imposed upon
| ard robbed eternally.
The president and secretary of the Coe
| and Zlma Mutusl Fire Insurance COM
pany having received permission from the
state auditor. have notified F. E. Cromp
ton to commence the canvass of Hamp>
ton township st once.
Henry Mold sold five head of steers for
for $3.50 to Einsworth & Hannah, of
Henry county, and when crossing Rock
river three of them broke through the ice
One of the two men Likewise broke in
and had he not been carrying plank he
would have stood go d chance of get
ting under the ice. II took about two
hours TO get the cattle out.
see It is reported in the ARGUS that
Col. Robert. Ingersoll should have said in
an interview in Chicago that, farmers
have JUS: as much right TO the protection
OF the govern ment as the merchants, man.
| ufacturers and spectators" Of course
they have. but Why could not Robert have
said that much in his republican CAM
psigu speeches of 1884 Had the thought
not occurred to him then? But then the
the farmers don't ask any protection from
| government. AL they ask is that they
| shall not be Disseminated against by
| legislation and be compelled to pay tri-
butte to the manufacturers or any otSer
class. Do you see?
Some of our citizens are wondering
what can be the cause of so many deaths
| from heart failure We can scare " take
| up newspaper that we cannot find re-
corded numbers OF deaths from heart
| troubles. Secretary Window is another
| case in point Aud in this connection l
would state that an experiment was made
few months ago upon thirty eight STU
| dents of average health who had been
using tobacco for period ranging from
two years to two months. Twenty>seven
showed severe injury to the constitution
and insufficient growth; thirty-two, the
existence of irregulsrity of the hearts
action, disordered stoms chs. cough and q
craving for alcohol; thirteen had inter-
mittency of the pulse. and one had con-
| sumption. After they had abandoned
the use Of tobacco, within six months
time one half were free from their former
| symptoms, and the remainder had recov-
cred by the end of the year.
In consequence of an absent son, Mr..
| Hamilton Wreath was not inferred until
Monday last. He was inferred at T. cas-
ant Point cemetery and the funeral was
largely attended, MULTUM IN PARvo.
