plated removal or excision of the lower

be the burning topic of local discussion,

ceive. Here is a locality where nobody
nor nothing need necessarily be contaml-
mated by the presence of the social evil
nuisance. except few lazy" railroad
tracks and grain warehouse Of a flour
mill-a spot which even your ''esteelned"
insect contemporary across the way, who
is so fearfully and wonderfully wrought
up by the proposed abOlishment OF lis
darling helltown pet, might perhaps
eventually become reconciled 10. SID.

There Are Th1ee Things

To remember in connection with
grain harvesters, namely:
That the Mccormick Light Binder
with its simple knotter always delivers
a bound bundle; that it never gets tout
of kilter," and that it uses less Irvine
than any other binder.
That the Mccormick swinging bun
die carrier delivers bundles in better
shape than any other, that is, they dc
not drag along on the the, ground and
thresh out the grain, but all go off at
once in a pile. f.: t--
That the Mccormick Transport is
the best device for transporting the
harvester from field to field; best be
cause the SIMPLEST; best because mos
quickly arranged, and best because i
completely prevents any springing o.
|straining Of the harvester frame.
These things we can proven othe
words, what we say we do we do do.

American History in 100 Words,

The Washington Pathfinder recently
offered a prize for the best original
history of the United States in. 100
words. Out of Oil contestants, the
prize was awarded to w. T. Golden, of
pana, ILL.,, for the following: "The
revival of learning, commercial
rivalry, and religious zeal in Europe
led to Columbus discovery of America
in 1892. Conflicting territorial claims
and parental luminosity involved Eng
lish,, French and Spanish colonists in
wars eliminating in English suprem-
acy in 1853. England's oppression al
]enated colonial affection, induced
revolution, FASTENED independence.
Common cause and danger begat
colonial union; the weakness of the
confederation demanded federal re-
public. Party differences tempted
legislation. Negro slavery precipi-
tated civil strife, secession, emancipa.
ton, federal authority supreme, re.
organization succeeded. Religious
freedom, an unmuzzled press, inven
ton, internal improvement and uni
versal education have. conduced tx
prosperity at home and abroad.' No
being equal to this party as ICON
denser," we cannot tell the advantage
and attractions of the Burlington
