In some way it became known that
last Thursday was Mrs. X. w. Mener-
| ey's birthday and her friends in the
Disciple church quietly put their heads
together and planned to spend the re-
mainder of the evening with her after
the prayer meeting. a happy surprise
was the result and the ladies served a
nice supper III the church.
| A carload of groceries was received
last week at Marlette for delivery
among farmers who bought the stuff
OF tramp dealer, paying as much
| and in some cases more, and in cash,
than they could buy of their own
merchants. This, of course, is the way
to build up your own town. Lei all
your cash go rolling out to these out
siders who care nothing for you or
your town and let your own merchants
trust you until they go to the wall.
What do you care?
The Pontiac Gazette pertinently re-
marks: ave trust that Mr.. Rookie
Teller, of the Standard Oil Co., will
make no more presents of few mil
lion dollars to Chicago university, or
to any other public institution, nor
thai any more of his daughters will
get married for the present, requiring
a dowry of 50 ,000 900. For, in addition
to adding one cent n gallon to the
price of Kerosene oil, he has reduced
the quality of t he same at least two
cents u gallon. The people to-day are
using the poorest quality OF illuminat-
ing oil that has been on the market
for the past ten years."

next day. 1t seems that during the

storm door on the side entrance to his
house. Without awakening his better
half, he arose, and descended the
stairs, clad only in his night costume,
and emerged from the hall door, slip
ped round the corner and closed the
offending door, returning and seeking
an entrance from whence he came,
discovered to his dismay the wind had
done for the front door what he had
done for the side dOOr-closed it with
a. bang, and unfortunately the bang
had spring to it which had no out
side combination. Imagine the plight
of the merchant, his wife upstairs fast
asleep, thermometer at zero. the angry
night winds wantOnly and festively
sporting with his night linen, and al
most freezing the marrow i'm his bare
bones and his own hospitable door
cruelty closed in his face. Well there
was nothing for him to do but awaken
his wife, SO he commenced vigorous
tattoo on the door, occasionally varying
the program by singing snatches of
popular $. $. song, but in much
higher key than the spirit of the song
called for, "Let me in Let me in "
After fifteen minutes of banging and
shivering his better half was finally
