oddities we have ever met. In tact
he is the next thing to Barnum's
"What Is It." Though a married
man, he likes to firt with the girls;
though he never went to school in

and edits one of the best and spi-
ciest papers in the State; though
he talks with his pen, he acts on
the stage with his mouth; though
he has always been called Repub-

Whatever may be said about the
publications of Rev. Irl R. Hicks
by those who do not understand
the facts, there is no denying the
truth that his paper and Almanac
have come to stay. His splendid
journal, Word and Works, is now
entering its tenth year, largely in.
creased in circulation and in every
way improved, until it. deserves
the national reputation it has at
taiued. His 1897 Almanac is now
ready and is by tar tho finest and
most beautiful he has yet issued.
It contains lO8 pages, including
cover artistically printed in colors,
and is filled from back to back with
just what is wanted in every shop
Office, and home in America. One
feature Of the Almanac for 1897 is
aserles IL original, beautifully en-
graved star maps, with explanatory
chapters, which could not be bought
for less than five dollars in any
work on astronomy. AS Mr.. Hicks
has so correctly and faithfully
warned the public of coming
droughts, foods, cold waves, biz.
yards, tornadoes, and cyclones, in
the years passed, aside from the
other varied and splepdid features
of his paper and Almanac, these
considerations alone sIp Ipuld prompt
every family to subscr i|be at once
for 1897. The Almana Nc is only rs
