crop and every bit of it. Hay will
be worth money before another

magnificent wages are being offered

Every week we read of some
poor forlorn maiden who advertises
in the matrimonial papers for a
husband, and nearly all of them get
mulcted for several dollars We are
sorry for them and are going to
help them out. Any lady who will
write up her qualifications and leave
her photograph with us, we will
advertise for her, put in a good
word for her, send the papers
marked to all the bachelors, widow
ers or young bachelors in the
county as the lady desires. Her
name will not be printed nor the
photograph shown unless said
bachelors, widowers ct. al, produce
evidence of serious intentions.
This costs but five cents per line.
We have aleady written the post
