Good Advice.

The following advice taken from
Hoard's Dairyman is not only good for
farmers but all business men III what
ever avocatlon they are i'll. Read it:
A good enterprising dairy farmer is a
blessing to his neighborhood, if be is
generous, public spirited man. If he
is willing to show his neighbors how he
has Won success and where he made
mistakes, he helps the community
about him to earn and save many dollars
every year. Too many successful men
are selfish and narrow. They seem to
think that they would be made poorer
if they instructed less fortunate men
how to succeed. Then, too, on the
other hand, many are jealous of a
successful farmer. Go into any farming
neighborhood and one will hear the
Door farmer sneer at the successful
. ines. This is little boys work. No
nan is better off because his neighbor
is poor, nor is any man the poorer be-

f armers too often tear each other
* ,Wn, hence they have too little in

Cranberry Cream.

Cranberries are at their best for the
next two months, and appetizingly
suggest the holiday dinners now almost
in sight Few housekeepers view this
tart and toothsome berry in any other
light than that of relish for the
Thanksgiving or Christmas turkey, but
its flavor is equally acceptable i'll a
dessert sweet. Mrs. Rorer's receipt
for cranberry cream calls for pint of
cranberries, which must be put in a
saucepan with about Il teaspoonful of
water, just enough to keep them from
scorching. Cover the saucepan, and as
soon as the clanberries pop, press them
though colander. Add one cup of
sugar and two tablespoonful of gelatine
that has been allowed to stand for half
an hour covered with four tablespoons
full of water. Now stand the pan hold
ing the mixture of berries, sugar and
gelatinc in another pan of cracked ice,
stir till it begins to thicken, then stir in
pint of thick cream, turn in a mold
and stand away to harden.

BEAN-HOUSE.

A very quiet ceremony was performed

| O'Clock, at which time Miss Jennie
Belle House was united in marriage to
James l. Bean, Rev. VIM. Kilburne

Mr.. Bean isa jovial railroad man who
makes friends wherever he goes and
has found splendid helpmate in the
estimable young lady he has chosen for
a wife. She was favorite in the
society with which she mingled and was
respected by all. Only few select

Thanksgiving Day.
Is one that all citizens ought to make

Is one that all citizens ought to make
the most of and enjoy. We have many
things to be thankful for. Good health
prosperity, Republican victory un-
equaled in the annals of history, and
many minor matters too .nuinerous to
m ention. Confidence has been re-
established in the business world and
we can look forward to h.tter times,
more labor, more clothes, more COM
forts of life. Why not rejoice?
Celebrate in every commendable way.
Kill the fatted calf, pig and turkey.
Give the children all the good things to
eat that the larder in the house affords.
Clothe them warmly and turn them out
to enjoy the skating, sleighing, etc.
Make the day all that it was intended it
should be.
This festival, which originated with
Pilgrims who settled in Massachusetts,
was always kept on the last Thursday in
November, as it is now. For many
years it was observed only by the New
LiSlaIlu COlOHlcS, dild oAis tot dOOut
thirty years has it been made national
festival and holiday; but in no part of
the country has it ever put on that
supreme festive character that it wore
in the first half of this century in New
England. 1t occurred just at the close
of the ingathering of the harvest and
was regarded by the older people as an
Offering of thanks for it, whether 1t
were meagre or abundant; but by the
boys and girls it was greeted as high
time for fun, feasting and merriment.
Especially was the great dinner the
central object of regard and anticipa-
ton.
1t is the editors sincere wish that
every family in the Twin Cities may
enjoy their Turkey and cranberry sauce,
as they never have before and rejoice
with all mankind in keeping the day of
Thanksgiving.

Fox River valley paper and pulp mills
has arrived in this country and is now
in consultation with Promoter Butter
worth in New York. The committee is
expected to arrive in the valley in a
few days to look over the plants and
the records of their business, with a
view to determining the advisabity Of
purchasing at the prices named in the
options already secured. The big
Shattuck & Babcock plant at DePere is
not included in the options secured,

Death of Anton BiIImyre.

Those who are aged and feeble are
affected by the cold weather that is now
upon us. Each week brings its harvest
and the cycle of time cuts down the
aged whose race is run and death
relieves them of further suffering. This
week we note among those who have
passed away Mr.. Anton Billmyre an old
settler who is quite well known in this
city. He died on Sunday November
18th at the ripe age Of 6S years, two
months and II days, of heart failure
Mr.. Billmyre came to this country in
1868 and settled in Grand Rapids where
he has reared his family Of four child
ren and ever since resided. He was
born in Germany, September 2, 1926,
and was married there to his present
wife who survives him. He was
hardworking man, liberal provider,
and good citizen who enjoyed the
respect and confidence of all those who
knew him.
The funeral service took place Tues
day at the Catholic church Father
Beyerle officiating. A large number of
neighbors and friends were present at
the last sad rites to pay their respects
to one whom all revered.
Mrs. A. Billmyre and family desire to
express their thanks and gratitude to all
their neighbors and friends who had
part i'll administering sympathy and
assistanceoin the sickness and burial of
husband and father.

ADAHS-HERScHLEB.

Mrs. Sophie Hersehleb surprised her
many friends in the Twin Cities the
past week by introducing Mr.. Samuel
Adams, of Stevens Point, to her friends
as her husband. OF course her many
friends were pleased to hear the news
but wholly surprised for it had been
accomplished without the usual gossip
common when such affairs take place.
1t appears that the ceremony was
performed on Wednesday evening
October oath at her residence in this
city. Her brother-in-law, H. A.
Herschleb and wife, of this city, acting
as bridesmaid and groomsman. Rev.
J. R. Reynolds, pastor of the M. f.
church offioiated:
Mr.. S. Adams is prominent business
man in that city in the grocery business,
in good circumstances and highly
thought of. He has known his present
wife ever since she was little girl and
therefore was acquainted with her
many good qualities and accomplish
ments.
Mrs. Sophie Herschleb will be greatly
missed in this city as she was highly
thought of, respected and appreciated
for her many womanly qualities. What
society loses here i'll Mrs. IIerschleb,
our sister city gains. In leaving her
host of friends here she takes with her
the best wishes and good will of her
friends. TIE REPORTER extends con-
gratulations even tho little late.

Death of the Gar.

Rev. Reynolds, pastor of the NJ. E.
church delivered a lecture Sunday
evening on the death of the Csar."
A large audience had assembled to hear
him on that subject. While he reviewed
the Cars life favolably and placed him
among the foremost men of his time in
the old world, we for one, feel that I've
paid him too high a tribute for one who
has been a tyrant ruler over a great
people. While the Car possessed
many commendable qualities he was
tyrant of the severest type. However
we were glad to hear what the Reverend
lad to oay, s,nd enjoyed his remarks,
We will be pleased to hear what he will
have to. say on the Downfall of Tam
many" a subject deserving of wide
thought and severe criticism.

this matter be looked into and if he has

that he be prosecuted for violation of
the election laws. We are informed
and believe that he was engaged to
