large acreage.
Mrs. John Barleycorn and tw
little Johns visited Miss Ida Tidrov
Thursday morning, and accompa
MED by Miss Ida, visited Mrs. Al
Sanders in the afternoon.
We are told that Miss Perdi'
Callicott, of Pleasant Hill, is build
ing up fine reputation as teach
err in the Houser valley vicinity
and we are proud to hear it.
We wish to thank Topsy for the
beautiful boquet pitched at US in
last weeks issue, and will try tc
conduct ourselves in the future Sc
as to merit the friendship OF all
The Commercial family.
DR.. Anderson, of Rives, is build
ing up a fine paying practice in
this section, and is making himself
otherwise felt in social circles. His
live and let live methods are fully
appreciated by his patrons.
| One of the most energetic, indus
tr1ous and business young ladies OF
Pleasant Hill is Miss Ida Tidrow.
1t is wonderful the amount of pluck
and energy sometimes exhibited in
one hundred pounds of human flesh.
The business men of Rives are
not to be excelled by those OF any
other town in the state for honesty,
integrity, seracity. They are eapa-
BILE in business and conscientious
Christians. AS far as we know
there is not a single exception to
this rule.
We have partly recovered from
the shock in time to join in the
laugh with the host of The CONNER
cial's admirers at the witty way
"Gipsy" presented that huge joke
in last weeks issue, and will prom
Use to try to overcome that natural
mania we have for braying.
We have on exhibition on our
farm streak of human tracks, a lit
tie out of shape but otherwise good,
left by Mr.. Walter Agnew on last
Sunday night while surveying out
new midnight route from Pleas
ant Hill to his home. He will please
call and get same and pay for this
notice.
Brothers and sisters of The Com
mercial family, by the enthusiasm
of one of our family we are all
invited 10 dine with our editors, and
look forward with fond anticipation
to the time, from the fact that we
once attended such meeting, and
know from experience some of its
benefits. Friendly relations sprang
up between two of the parties
which ripened into love and result
ed in a marriage, and the happy
pair still live in neighboring town
to Union City.
The most serious subject tor the
consideration of the social circle of
Number -Four is the number of old
bachelors being constantly added
to its list. There are ]. w. Bush,
Prof. Cook, Ira Shore, Bob Wade,
James helms, Walter Agnew, John
Harper, James Harper, Preston
Shore and James Wise. All these
gentlemen are of the highest type
OF manhood, goodhearted, broad
minded, energetic, industrious,
prosperous and worthy. We think
it would be advisable for the old
maids to call in the assistance of
their sister districts and that they
combine and concentrate their eff
forts to reawaken the matrimonial
sentiment once SO fondly cherished
in the bosoms of these old 'sober-
Sides" Poor old fellows, we are
sorry for them.
Owing to the fact that ga B c"
has returned to her post as regular
correspondent, we feel a de1icacy IN
continuing to write, and deem it
prudent to offer our resignation for
the present. With love and good
wishes for all, l bid you adieu.
