EASY AND CHEAP.
And What Is More TO The Point PrOfita'
bic to the Farmers.

The drag has been used on
the public roads in some coun.
ties so effectually that it would
seem to he good plan to try it
on our dirt streets in the city.
A gentleman who was in Noda
way county few days ago says
that the roads in chat county
where the drag is used are
bouievards, really better than
ashphalt pavements much of
the time. The farmers are do.
ing the work themselves along
their respective farms. After
each rain the drag is run over
the roads and all ruts wiped
out. 1t is also becoming the
rule for all who pass along the
road Immediately after a rain
to drive along the side and
leave the center until the road
is dry. Our dirt streets need
never get out of repair if the
proper inspection made and the
drag used in time. 1t is Ger.
tainly cheaper to keep the
streets 10 repair by working
them during the spring months
or whenever they become mud.
dy by reason of heavy rains
than to allow them to become
past repair. A stitch in
time saves nine in this case as
in many others. -Moberly Dem.

Letter to ii. w. Wood,
Monroe City, Mo.

Dear Sir: Some think we take
a good deal of risk ia inviting
complaints of Devoe Ready
Paint-we authorize our agent
to sell 1t under gthis guarantee:
eff you have any fault to find
with this paint, either now in
putting it on, or hereafter in
the wear, tell your dealer
about it,"
1--WE authorize him to do what
is right at our expense.
The following story tells how
little the risk is:
j. H. Asher & Co., hardware
dealers, Rhinebeck, N Y, have
sold Devoe from '76 to now, and
have had just one comp laint in
all this time.
Three sides of a house were
perfect; the fourth was as bad
as the three were good.
Explanation-It rained the
night before the fourth side was
painted; and the painters didn't
wait for the wood to dry.
What is done in such cases?
Whatever the dealer, who sold
the paint, considers it fair to
do We leave it to him. He
may not do. exactly what we
should if we were there; but we
are not there. The best we can
do is to leave it to him.
Yours truly,
f. w. DEvoE & Co.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

When the wife's away the
men will play.
When a woman forgets to ask
if her hat is on straight it is he
cause she isn't wearing one.
You can't teach a man who
is in love very much about
the sensations of chills
and fever.
Women tell such plausible
white lies that the second time
they do it they believe it them
selves.
When a woman keeps going
TO a mirror and looking into il
it is sign she is wondering il
some man thinks some other
woman is prettier than she is

On Single Sale.

r. w. Brown, proprietor of Hotel
Heseton and Thomas D. Cahill, manager,
brought before Judge Bachelor, Friday
afternoon, January 30, on warrant
alleging a single sale OF intoxicating
liquors, sworn out by sheriff Lang.
The respondents pleaded not guilty.
Warren Harville testified that he bought
quart bottle of whiskey at Hotel
Heselton, January 9TH, that Mr., Cahill
got the whiskey by direction of Mr..
Brown and he paid 81 80 therefor.
The respondents both testified thai
they did not sell the whiskey to MI
Harville, nor had any been sold there
since the hotel was opened by Mr..
Brown the last time.
The court found the respondents
guilty and imposed penalty of 500
fine and 80 days imprisonment upon Mr..
Brown, and 5000 fine and six months
Imprisonment upon Mr.. Cahill. "Second
offence" was alleged in the warrant
against the latter, which accounts for
the severe penalty. Judge Bachelor
stated that he followed the statute
closely in imposing the penalties.
The respondents appealed TO the
supreme court and recognized in the
sum of 5000, each. County Attorney
Cover appeared for the State and S. w
Gould, Esq. for the respondents.
