In early life he met with an accident
which left him with a broken nose. n
deformity about which in spite OF his
piety he was known to he a little sensi-

the old question:
How happened you to break your
nose?"
The minister answered solemnly:
ITO tell the truth, my friend, the &C

nose into other peoples business. -

The Fnhinn Policy.

The policy of wearing out the enemy
in war by delays. misleading move
ments. feints Of attack, etc, while
avoiding open battle. is called the
Fabian policy" from the following
circumstances: Fabius Maximus was a
Roman general in the second Punic
war Having been appointed just after
the Roman army had suffered severe
defeat at Lake Thrasymene, he per-
ceived that his disheartened troops and
bands of raw recruits could not oppose
successfully a traiLed army flushed with
victory and led by their great COM
mander, Hannibal. He therefore avoid
ed pitched battles, moved his camp
from highland to highland, and tired
out the enemy with marches and
countermarches. This he continued
until thwarted in his calculation by the
imDatience Of the Roman senate.

Shall the senate Rule the Republic.

Prof. II. Won Hoist, the eminent his
torian, contribute to the November
Forum a slashing criticism Of the pres
ent senate under the title, "Shall the
Senate Rule the Republic?" The senate
he points out, has prevented it's privi-
leges so as to give every individual SEN
ator an absolute veto upon all legisla-
ton. The two Nevada senator's, repre-
senting hardly the population of a
good-sized third-class city, paralyze the
business of the whole population. He
warns the people against vicious com
promises and urges them To hold mass
meetings to demand an immediate re-
vision of the senate rules.

Boiled onions taken about an hour
before going to bed will usually relieve
any but the worst cases of insomnia.
The heart of a hot onion placed in the

onion with sugar and baking ii in the

The woman's rights union of Brussels,
Belgium, has published statistics relat-
ing to the geographical distribution of
the sexes in Europe. According TO the
figures published by that union there
were when the respective enumerations
were made, ITO, S1S.561 men and 174.914,119
women in Europe, or 4,095,55S more wo-
men than men. The predominance of
the female sex is strongest in Norway
and Portugal. where to 1000 men there
are ,091 women. 1t is least in France
and Belgium, where the proportion is
900 men to 1,007 women. In six coun-
tries of Europe-Grsece, Italy, Servia,
Bosnia Roumania and Bulgaria-the
male sex preGominates. In Italy to 1000
men there are 995 women. Bosnia is
poorest in women among the countries
of Europe, showing only S96 women to
1000 men. j. q. HERTWIG. 8

Why Don't the Governor Explain?

Madison Democrat:-Elsewhere is
copied an article from the Sentinel
calling upon the late private secretary
of the governor to investigate the
charges made in the roster matter and
report on it. There is no occasion for
doing more than making report, but
that is not at all likely to be made. The
secret roster job was the most shameless
and disgraceful in the history of the
state and the conduct of the governor
and attorney general in relation O the
job was more corrupt and disgraceful
than any other two state officers were
ever before guilty of in Wisconsin. 1t
was a deliberately planned and out
rageous plan to loot the state treasury
of anywhere from $50, 1000 to 100000,
for the benefit of the organ in which
these state officials were deeply
interested. The job was under consid-
Grafton for several months and the two
state officers who were responsible
knew just what they were doing, and
evidently what there was in it. There
is no likelihood of any report on this
conduct, but unless there is some Lively
hustling very soon to return the SIS 900
that was advanced on the secret job and
Attorney General O'Connor's opinion
that it would hold, the courts will make
a report upon it.

GOOD nARKETS.

There is probably but very few
places in the State with better markets
and better railroad connections to
reach good markets than is found in
the Twin Cities, and no place we know
of any where is any better adapted for
growing all kinds of small fruits than
this section here.
With our railroads running North
South, East and West we can reach all
parts of the state, and our county ought
to build up reputation in fruit grow
ing second to none. Everybody ought
to plant enough for their own use and
some for market, and remember that
you can get the very best plants, bushes
and trees of Messrs. Purdy & Read of
the Wood County Nursery that can be
procured anywhere and at prices lower
than can be procured from any other
nursery.
Agents of eastern nurseries will
charge S1.50 per dozen for raspberries
and 81 per dozen for blackberries but
you cae get 100 at the same price if you
patronize HOME INDUSTRY. Remember
and call for anything you want of

Death of Hrs. Sarah Boles.

1t has been known for several years
back that Mrs. Boles was a great
sufferer with rheumatism, but it was
not known that size was so rapidly
approaching that change which is so
surely coming to us all sooner or later
death. About a week ago she was
obliged to remain in bed and since that
time has gradually grown worse until
deaths angel relieved her from pain
and suffering Tuesday afternoon October
31st, 1898.
Mrs. Boles is counted one of the old
settlers. She came here with her
husband in 1857 and has reared large
family. She possessed those womanly
traits of character which enabled her
bravely to endure the hardships of the
pioneer days. She was a lady highly
respected by all those who enjoyed her
intimate acquaintance. To her family
she was all that is implied in the term
"a good mother" There are few
persons in this age who fail to realize
the full meaning and value of "a good
MOTHER" or the sorrow that comes with
the loss of one. To us a mother means
unbound riches and a treasure we
dread to lose more than all else. With
the counsel, love and affection Of "a
good mother" there is everything to
live for-without her this is really a
cold world. No one can take her place.
Mrs. Sarah Boles was born in County
Dorm, Townland of Donoughmore,
Ireland, in September, 1888, she was
therefore in her 61st year. She came
to this county in 1850, was married to
her husband in Kenosha, Wis, in 1856
and shortly after-in the spring of 1857,
they came to Wood county where they
have since resided.
Besides her husband she leaves seven
children, one daughter Mrs. Will Carey,
who resides in Centralia, and six sons,
VIM. Henry, of Wausau; John James,
Of Montana; Hugh Samuel, Lawrence
Peter, Francis Arthur and Chas. Edwin,
all at home.
The funeral takes place this morning
at the Catholic church at 10o'clock Rev.
Beyerle officiating.

pounds was almost more than the
average editor could bear. We tackled
the job however and actually carried
the deer about 40 rods-more or less.
My but that load was heavy. 1t was
about all we could do to navigate alone
without any extra weight We reached
walker at five O'Clock o. m. more
dead than alive, in drenching rain.
We were all wet, tired and hungry.
Never worked any harder in our lives,
but remember this was 'sport"-
work. A nice warm supper was relished
before taking the freight for home well
pleased with our days outing.
That deer had cost our party great
deal of hard work. We walked about
20 miles and carried him about miles
on our back. 1t was a pleasure how
ever because it was a change from our
daily toll. Such outings do a person
good if not overdone. The Messrs.
Searles are good hunters and most
agreeable company. We are under ob-
legations to them for many favors ten
dered.
