sister, Emma, at the hotel on his 9th
birthday.
We received card announcing the
marriage of F. w. Harris, the Oath, at
Belmont. Mr.. Harris is a son of John
Harris of Bagley. Fred, as we are
won't to call him, was from child up
very studious and thoughtful young
man and now has reached a point in
his ministerial career that makes his
parents and all who know him justly
proud of him. He has now reached the
enviable position of minister of the
gospel.
Chas. r. Richardson of Hurricane, an
old soldier and farmer, spent pleas
ant week in Bagley visiting at the
nome of Conrade Cook.
w. Cook and wife of Bloomington
were welcome guests at the John Har
vile home Monday. Mr.. Cook is an
other old soldier and was looking over
our little burg in view of making it his
future home. Well, Comrade Cook,
we can tell you right now, we have lots
of room here yet and we give all good
citizens hearty welcome.
B. E. Keller and family are here on a
weeks visit. We are always glad to
see Ben, but tell you he gives our old
sidewalks a hard test. You see he
weighs 24O pounds now.
J.V. Winter and wife of Lacrosse
are here visiting relatives and Jesse is
having a dandy time with hook and
line.
Separator agents are swarming over
the hills of Wyalusing like bees.
Our streets look deserted as many
are out claiming John Keller broke
the record Saturday when he found
shell that contained IA slugs. Good
slugs sell at 5cts per grain, so you see
that one shell contained several dol
lars in value.
Ye local and the guide woman paid
the Handy farm and pleasant home
visit one day last week, and for a time
we fairly reveled in the loveliness of the
country. The home is on high ridge
overlooking the Father of Waters and
good view of the river towns. Like
the sagle, Will and his energetic little
wife live high and dry above the ma
larial damps and fogs of the 1owlands.
Joe Urine and Miss Anna Plondke
were united in wedlock at Waukon, Ia.
one day last week. The groom form
ally lived in Bagley but now lives in
Ls.Farge, Wis. The bride is resident
dressmaker and will be sadly missed.
Who will take her place? Money in it
for u. & |.
ARTHUR.
The funeral of Mr.. Bert Dixon takes
place today at Livingston where he
died and his body will be brought to
Arthur and laid to rest beside that of
his mother and brother and two sis
tiers. He died suddenly Monday morn
ing; he called to his wife once and all
was over. He had been in frail health
for two years with heart trouble but
had been able to do light work most of
the time. He leaves wife and little
daughter, a father and brother to
mourn his loss.
Bertha Rundell came home Satur-
day from Lacrosse, where she has
been teaching the past two years with
the intention of returning in the fall.
She and her sister jessie expect to
start for Boston Thursday to take in
the teachers convention. Misses Jes-
sic and Bertha are among the up-to-
date teachers.
Doctor Treglown's sister of Mich
gan, Ocea Eeathcote of Linden and
Mrs. Prior of Chicago, sisters of Mrs.
Treglown spent several days with them
last week. The doctor is building quite
en- addition to his house which will
give them plenty of room.
Many from here have been attending
the tent meetings held on the Joe Bar
ret farm. We trust that seed has been
sown on good ground and that it will
spring up hundred fold.
Miss Ada Allen took in the reunion

John Anthony and John Holt have

That's right, take it easy whileyou can.
