NOTES AND CONTENTS

The school boys holiday is at an
end.
How acceptable the change in the
atmosphere.
Soon the sunshine will be preferable
to seeking shade.
Mr.. ]. H. Weddel is critically i'll at
his residence on Liberty street.
Never spread an i'll report about
your neighbor until you know posi-
lively it is true--and there is danger
in it then if he is more muscular than
you are.
LOT" and the editor of the Herald
have been striking some sledge. ham
mer blows in plain unvarnished Ian
guage. The truth being mighty, and
they both being armed with plenty
of ability for defense, makes the sub.
jects very much one sided.
There is the imitation of side
walk at the front of one of the lots
on Liberty street, where cutters are
washed below the roots of the shade
trees, and fair sized barrel could be
hidden from view in them. The city
fathers appear to have as much diff
Guilty in seeing it as they have in To-
eating the leak in the water main
near Fits foundry. If sober men
cannot walk erect over such a rugged
pathway, what will be the conse.
quence with the fellow who is on the
outside of pint or two Of extract of
rye. 1t is very bad to have such side
walks and the condition of this one
has been of long duration. Look and
judge for yourselves.
Marriage divorces are swinging
around the circle again. 1t appears
to be much less trouble to marry than
to be freed from marriage, and not at
tended with near the expense. 1t is
bad when two agree to disagree. Be-
fore marriage every man has a theory
about the treatment of wife, which,
of course, should be kind; but with
many after marriage it's a condition
and not theory that confronts them.
Occasionally a young man can be
persuaded out of marrying a young
woman, but an old man--some never
swear to love before marriage, while
others love to swear afterwards. So
the world is composed of all kinds,
conditions and classes of persons. all
of whom should try to make their lot
in this life and the one to come most
pleasant. RALF.
