Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. McCrea hav,
been called upon to mourn the sudder
leath, from tonsilitis, of their younges
daughter, Mary, who was taken Monday
night at 8 o'clock. The child was aged
five years, and was the pet Of the house
bold. She was taken sick on Saturday
with all the symptoms of tonsilitis. OF
! quinsy, and being troubled with enlarged
tonsils from early infancy made her case
almost hopeless from the first. The be-
reaved parents and family have the
heartfelt sympathy ofall our people in
this afiliction.
Last Thursday l.. II. Mensch OF
Marienville, who was attending court
as witness, dislocated his arm at the
shoulder joint in peculiar manner.
Having sat in the court room for some
time he became somewhat restless aud
threw back his arms for agood "stretch," ,"
when one of them slipped out of the
/ socket at the shoulder. A physician be-
ing handy the dislocation was replaced,
and Mr.: Mensrh was able to start for
home that evening, though he will likely
experience considerable pain aud an
noyance before recovering completely.

The man who has land suited to
chestnut and hickory trees can do his
children and his chidren's children
good service by setting out plenty OF
hickory and chestnut trees, sensibly re-
marks an exchange. The demand for
hickory and chestnuts grows steadily.
There is no sign that it will ever cease.
As the cities become every year bigger
in proportion to the woods, so the supply
OF forest nuts falls farther and farther
short of the wants of the American peo-
pie. The result is high prices, high
enough beyond question, to make land
very profitable if covered with good
hickory or chestnut trees.
Are you in business? If so, let us ask
you how often in your life have you been
induced to purchase an article or make
an investment bv reading a hand bill or
dOdger? asks a sensible exchange. That
is a fair question, isn't it2 Now give it
on the other hand how often has well
written advertisement in newspaper
caused you to do one or the other?
Again, how much oftener do you read
handbills or dodgers? Now you are
only one of the human race, and your
fellow men are just like you. Ifthe news
paper advertising is best, and 1t pays to
advertise, then why not try the REPUB-
LICAN.
The farmer who is satisfied with
salted pork instead of the sugar-cured
article is not living up to his opportun-
tiles. Any farmer who has hogs to kill
can have sugar cured pork ifhe wants it.
The hams, side meat and shoulder should
each have a separate bar el for best re
suits. For each 100 pounds of meat take
ten gallons of water, eight pounds of salt,
four pounds Of brown sugar and one
ounce of saltpeter; boil all together and
closely in barrel aud weight it down.
Leaving it in the brine six weeks makes
it all right for eating, and then it is lifted,
drained and smoked. After that il is
good enough for king or anybody.
Says an authority.
1t has been reported on good author
ity that Frank Woodard, one of the muir
derers of Chief of Police McGrath on the
morning of Nov. IL, 1899, has been heard
from at small mining town in West
Virginia. The local authorities were APP
prised of his whereabouts, but he had
disappeared before he could be arrested.
lie was recognized by an Oean, n. Y,
man who knew Woodard when he lived
there and who is working in West Vir-
gina hotel where he stopped recently.
WOodard spent one night there and de-
parted the next morning. He goes
heavily armed carrying two revolvers,
one in his left trousers pocket, and the
other, large shooter, in his belt. lie
had plenty of money upon this occasion.
