Such capes are new, very dressy, warmer than they look and they have the advantage of going" with almost any shade of dress. Among the new models was a dainty one embroidered with sequlns and smaller beads on black velvet It was quite short very full round the edge and was lined with shot silk that toned with the sequins. The design of the embroidery was conventional and here and there little scrolls came out of the design, and ran up towards the neck. The peoples were impossible flowers, but that does not matter now a-days, and some such bit of brightness is essential The prize trick of mak- ing over was done by girl. who, hay Ing cut out the central medallion of her parasol cover, that she might make a place for her head to go through, util- ized the removed central medallion for the crown of her hat and drove all her friends nearly crazy with envy.

It is suggested that the machine gun, If certain economical considerations could be adjusted, would find a valua- ble place among the useful arts of peace. As a feller of trees there is no agency in the world like 1t. Admiral Sir Edmund Commerell, in alluding re- gently to the superiority in workman ship and effectiveness of the Maxim gun, said that 1908 Maxim was capa- ble of cutting down a tree seventeen inches in diameter dn quarter of a minute. He would not only defy any other gun to do this, but he would give any battalion in her majesty's service five hours firing as much as they liked, at whatever range they pleased, and they would not do the game thing.

The New York Sun translates one of the Japanese war songs with the fol- towing result: Strike! Lick the stuff fling out of the Chinese soldiers. They are towards. They work for country that repolled the honorable friendship of our empire. Their armies are big. You cannot count their numbers. But they are nothing but mobs of undisci- plined cattle. Their weapons look pret- ty, but they are as useless as pretty wo- men in a battle. We have sunk their warships. We show our faces and their troops skedaddle. With such old tubs in their fleet and such white-liv, cred towards in their armies, how can the Chinese resist us, even though they number millions? Strike! We will eviscerate China if we keep on.

The Latest in a Phonograph.

We bought a phonograph last week
and put it in our store and let an old
man SO years old from Grelton talk
in it and after he got through little
"kid" wanted to find out what he
said and turned the dang" machine
backward and this is what it ground
out:
5. M. Honeck has won great renown,
BY Keeping the very best goods in town,
And all who visit his store each day
Arealways pleased with his pleasant way.
He is always pleasant, ready, and willing
To give 20 cents worth of goods for a
shilling,
And by strictly attending to the best cash
trade
has built reputation that good goods
made.
Young men buy suit of his beautiful
clothes,
1t may make you market-sWho knows
Ii Honesk don't please you and make you
look fine,
He'll retire from business and take down
his sign.
They're right up to date-the latest style
And you wonder for good long while
Why Honeck hadn't busted someone be-
fore to day,
For it looks as though he gave the profit
away.
A man in New York these goods steal,
And gives them to Honeck so he wont
squeal.
Honeck pays the freight; the man does
the rest,
So he can sell the pants and throw in
coat and vest.
We stopped the "kid'' then and
made him turn the crank the right
way and it said a lot of things about
the Northern Lima Railway, Christ
mas and holiday goods at the cheap
est place in town, Honeck's, Cary
Block.

On Friday evening last as John

horrible manner, his face and head
receiving the worst injury. The un-
fortunate man was conveyed to the

ministered, but the Injuries were fatal
and death came to his relief Monday
night. Mr.. Lahee was a brother-in-
law of Canal Commissioner Hart
nett, and leaves a wife and three
children to mourn his untimely end.
The funeral took place on Wednes-

The market is full of cough mix
lures, but one trouble with most OF
them is that when they do a little
good the patient has to take so much
that he gets to loathe the taste. The
Pineola Balsam is superior to other
cough remedies because it is agree
able to the palate and its good effects
are immediate. In few days an or
dinary cough is gone altogether.
Bronchitis and asthma are more stub
born, nut they too are cured by Ely's
Pineola Balsam. A remedy worth
trying. Twenty-Five cents is all il
costs.

In the Toledo daily papers of Dec.
3rd there appeared an article which
was sent out from Napoleon to the
effect that Daniel Huddle had
severely whipped scholar named
Jacob Stemm attending school in
Dist. No. 1, and that Mr.. Huddle
was compelled to carry weapons in
order to protect himself from the
enraged parents of the lad Mr..
Huddle desires us to state that there
is not an iota of truth in the report,
and that instead of teaching in Dist.
No. / where the boy goes to school,
and which is about two mile south of
this city, he is employed to teach in
Dist. No 6, which is situated about
a mile north of Napoleon.

A good piece of advice to people
who live out in the country is to take
up the habit of writing for newspa-
pers from their neighborhoods. 1t
is pleasant diversion as well as a
profitable one to the mind and great
ly facilitates the passing of the long
winter evenings. Time spent in gath
ering up the happenings Of a neigh
borhood is good practice for the
mind as it cultivates detail and accu-
racy, two things which great many
of us lack in this busy rush of life.
Then there is sense of qualification
indescribable in reading something
written by ones self. We are always
pleased to hear from any of our
friends in the country and take
great pleasure in publishing their
experiences in all matters pertaining
to agriculture and successful farm
ing.
