Not Il Bad Sign,

Wo know Of young man, al
ready beyond his majority, who il
travelling salesman for an I'M
portant firm. Every day of his life
no writes his mother a letter, long
or short. And every day Of her
life his mother writes to him. Is
that n bad sign? The young man
is trusted employee, having risen
from the lowliest position to one
of high responsibility. Reader, do
you think that it impairs that
young mans standing with that
firm to have il known that every
day he writes to his mother, that
his mothor IS his confdanl, that he
loves to spend his time in hcr COM
pany, and kneel beside her in ov-
ening prayer? You may pat It
down, reader, that that is pot the
sort OF young man that turns out

DR.. l.. M. Small announces his inten-
ton of moving soon to Wood county,
Wis, where he thinks the conditions
are more favorable for expansion than
here. The DR.. has had q very lucra-
tive practice since locating here, and
we regret to see him go. However, this
is too good field to be left long unoc-
cupied, and we hope his successor may
meet with equal success.
Mr.. John n. Burhans died at his
home In this city Friday evening, Mar.
IL, 1899, after lingering illness of
many months. He was born in Oswe-
go county, n. Y, in May, 1881. While
still young man he struck out for the
west, locating first in Rock county,
Wis, and few years afterwards, In
the early fifties, moving to farm near
Ossian. When the civil war broke out
he enlisted in Co. L., 9th Cavalry, and
served until the close, being engaged
most of the time in fighting Indians in
the northwest. After the war closed
he resided at Postville until 1888, when
the family moved to Castalia where he
resided until his death. Mr.. Burhans
had a wide acquaintance, being i'm the
hotel business for many years. and one
of the very early settlers, and his
friends were as numerous as his &C.
quaintances He was sIaunch Mason,
q good citizen and of jovial and kind
disposition. The funeral was held at
the M. e. church, Rev. Barton, of Post
vile, officiating, Sunday p. m. The
Masonic order turned out enmasse
from Postville, Ossian and here, after
which the remains were taken to Post
Vile for interment beside his wife who
preceded him about two years. Three
children were born to them but only
one son, j. D., survives.
