Why This Distinction?

Every one likes to be treated fair
ly, and so every one will sympathize
with a little girl whose saying is re-
ported by the Chicago Post.
Five.year-old Mary had tretted and
made herself generally disagreeable,
and at night her older sister put her
to bed with a feeling of relief.
"There, child" she said, as she kiss
ed her goodnight. "hope you won't
be so Cross tomorrow"
Mary had cudded down under the
blankets, but at this speech she sat
upright again.
II notice." said she, "that when it's
me you say cross when it's you,

Short on Fruit Again.

Warren Gray, in The Darlington Republican
Last year the prospect for a heavy
tree fruit crop at this time was very
fattering as nearly every tree of all
varieties was covered with blossoms
and showed vigorous sets, when a
blithlng came and destroyed all but a
few of the Duchess, and some few
ironclads of similar hardness.
1t would be natural to suppose that
having grown one season without
bearing fruit, the trees would have
formed fruit buds last fall and pro-
duced a good crop this year. But
either oh account of last springs
blight which, in many cases injured
the leaves as well as the fruit buds, OF
for some other reason, apple, plum and
cherry trees, are very short of fruit
buds.
Present appearance indicate that
should all fruit buds produce mature
fruit we will have but a partial crop

Fire Promptly Extinguished.

Montfort Monitor.
A fire would have occurred at the
home Of Mrs. A. T. Prichett Wednes-
day had it not been for the timely in
terferance of S. F. Moody. The child
rem had filled the heating stove with
paper and set fire to it, which consid-
ering the condition of the weather,
was quite sensible thing to do. But
it happened that the stove pipe had
been removed and the sparks coming
out of the top had set fire to the wall.
Mr.. Moody applied some chemicals
which happened to be near, which act
ed like a charm and thus the house
was saved. Cannot make Mr.. Moody
believe but what any fire can be put
out if the proper chemicals are used.

Found Swinging by the Neck.

BOscObeI Dial.
Frank Allen, aged about IS years,
was found swinging by the neck from
a rafter in his cabin, three miles north
west of Fennimore, Tuesday morning
by neighbor named Doc. Fry. He
had apparently been dead three days.
Allen was unmarried and lived alone.
Being a hard drinker he had recently
been put upon the Black List by rel
atives and this seemed to throw him
into a state Of melancholy insanity
that brought about his sad end.
