Young man, don't swear. There
is no occasion for it outside of print
ing office, where it is useful when the
paper is behind time. 1t also comes
handy in proof reading and indispens-
ible when the ink works bad and the
press begins to buck. 1t is sometimes
brought into use when the foreman's
mad; and it has been known to entire
ly remove that tired feeling of the ed
itor when he looks over the paper after
it has been printed. Outside of a
printing Office it is foolish habit
Ex.
Peter Hatfield informs us of the
narrow escape of Walter Habel, son
of Peter Habel, living on Mr.. Hatfeld's
farm southwest of town. The other
day he went to the granary TO get
some chicken feed and just as he was
in the act of opening the door a shot
was fired from the bluff, and 80 cal
ibre ball struck the granary within
six inches of his body. It is thought
that the ball was fired from parties
with murderous intent, who mistook
Walter for his father. -Platteville
