to the depth of one foot, making fully
three and one-half feet on the level in
the woods. The Rev. ira r. Hicks,
weather prophet to DR.. j. III. Mclean,
struck it pretty close His calender
indicates big storms the Ii, 9th, and
10th, VIII CHI we have had, and again

prognosticate blizzard on the 18th of
Ireland. Letter blizz-we are here first.
Taylor & Anthony, of Anthony Sid

Tim Ncster's speech, at the demo-
cratic convention at Lansing, shows his
heart is in the right place as regards
the homesteaders.
The great Jttror kicked up by some
republicans at the unseating of two Of
their senators, and the seating OF two
democrats seems 10 her childish, to say
the least, and If the der,s res orled to
sharp practice, and caught them naps
p ng, what's the use of whining? The
Detroit Tribune admits that in one case
thele was quorum, and in the ether
only fifteen members present. What
il L,eut-Gov- Strong looked out of the
! WIN low, or into the cloak room, and
cast his eagle eye on enough members
to make quorum-did he do worse
taan follow the example of the great
Maine statesman" If the democrats
are such great thieves as some say why
did they not watch them? What bust
ness had thes ut jackson? They are
paid by the STATE to work ut Lansing.
There are quite enough people working
for the state at jackson now. Stay in
your places gentlemen, and attend to
biz, and then there will be no occasion
to howl.
Complaint was made before justice
OF the peace at Kitchi against one
Reardon for selling liquors without q
license, and upon hearing was bound
over to the circuit cour,. Last spring
James Rus sell, from st. lgnace, procur-
ed The proper license and opened a
saloon. Some time after he took i'll,
was removed to Negaunee. and died
there. Having considerable property an
administrator was appointed to take
charge OF his eflects-among them this
unexpired license. Reardon claims he
was sent here by the administrator to
continue the business for the unexpired
term for the benefit of the estate.
Whether this is in accordance with law
the courts will determine.

A good way to keep eggs is to k 90
cts. a dozen while your neighber is

Don't draw your molasses in the

Don't white off the end of your
yard stick it might spoil your knife
and you might have to buy q new one !
in 6 or 10 years---it would be too short |
to be handy.
Always buy heavy wrapping paper.
1t holds the goods better and makes
them heavier to carry, so if package
is LIST it will be easily missed thereby
saving the purchaser good deal of time
looking for it. This especially applies
to groceries. Always in weighing out
IN ounce or two OF tobacco place plenty
Of paper ia the scoop before putting in
the tobacco so as to render it tasteless
when you weigh nails in the same
scoop.
