Though the war of 1912 has bee
over eighty years there are still 16
survivors of that struggle living. Th
success of those old soldiers in MAJ
rying young girls is shown bv th /,
fact that Cos of them still live an |
draw pensions. If this proportio
should hold true the year 1910 wi
see 100, 900 widows drawing pensiors
on account of the civil war.

Emily Peterson, n young woman
of Bloomfield, Ohio, has sued Henry
Williams, Il well to do young man
for 81 GOO damages. She states that
on December 1G last, Williams IN
lawfully entered her home and IN
suited her by putting his arm around
her waist, and that she has since
suffered great distress of mind bn
account of this. Poor girl, how IN
like the average girl she is.
Dame fashion is making the oit-
look for poor, down-trodden nan
harder and harder. Not satisfied
with mammoth hats on their heals,
four-story puff shoulders on thsir
dresses, stylish ladies will soon tbn
big hoop skirts, so much in vogue !
thirty years ago. Just how the loig- |
suffering men, either in public hals |
or III the street, under this new r. |
der OF things, are to see, we canrbt |
say. |
Our roll of honor is beginningEo |
be recognized as a business dire |
tory i'll some respects. The average |
man generally pays everything ele
before he pays his paper, and ala
sequence the man who pays his D.
per generally pays for everything
else and is worthy of trust and co1i
dence. We have reserved one OIL
umn for the names of such indivh-
uals next week. Don't be backwdd |
about getting in.
Brother Lesher of the Selinsgr9e
Times is tampering with the cou1y
superintendency, and in his l$t
weeks issue slaps right and left 1t
the candidates. We do not thik
it in the province of n newspaperlo
in this matter, and the Pot,
which is always ready for fight r
n frolic, is agreed for one to kdp
silent in the matter and allow tic
between whom the VI
tory rests to continue their this
far honorably conducted campai4.
They are gentlemen, and eitAr
would be an honor to the positid,
but if it is to be mud-throwig
political campaign there will be lid
blood engendered, and then, broh-
er Lesher, take our word for it-y&rl
candidate soon't be ia 10. |
