DANCE AT THE CLUB HOUSE

The second of the series of subscrip-
ton dancing parties given at the club
house last evening, was among the best
ever given in that popular place for
social gatherings The attendance was
very large, there being fully seventy
five couples present. Quite a heavy
snow storm was in progress but hacks
helped out those who lived any great
distance from the hall, hence there
were very few who were kept away.
The hall and club house rooms were
beautifully decorated for the occasion.
The Columbia orchestra furnished de-
lightful music and was almost complete
~ hidden from view by bank of palms
and ferns. The chandeliers were COW
cred with wild smilax, as were also
windows and pictures, and beneath
each chandelier was wreath of immor-
telles. Stretched across the hall were
the various flags of the world and their
bright colors were very effective. There
was holly in abundance, and here and
there, in the hall, sprig of mistletoe,
of which the ladies fought shy. On the
first landing of the stairway, leading to
the hall was bunch of mistletoe which
was about the handsomest ever brought
to Wausau. 1t was about eighteen
inches in diameter and was brought
from the South by H. H. Foster. The
decorations in the parlor and club
room were of holiday nature and very
artistically arranged. Refreshments
were served in the basement of the
club house from 11:30 until IL O'Clock.
Among those from away were Mr..
andMrs. F. White and Mrs. Yawkey, of
Marquette, Mich; Mr.. and Mrs. HI. Fl.
Foster and the Misses Marion and May,
and Wallie, of Little Rock, Ark; Mr.
and Mrs. Walter d. Alexander, of Lex
ington, H.; Miss Leora Jones, of
Houghton, Mich; Miss Sadie Wash
burn, of Oshkosh.
1t was very delightful party in
every way and one of the most enjoy
able occasions of the holiday season of
1904.

PETITION GRANTED.

Aspecial meeting of the city council
was held Thursday evening for the
purpose of considering a petition made
by the H. E. McEachron Milling Co.
The company, in its petition, stated that
it is necessary that it have railroad
switch to its mill, on which to haul in
the grain to its elevator and carry out
the flour from the mill. 1t now has q
switch which has no direct connection
with the one running in from the
Barker & Stewart mill, it being neces-
sary to use turn table and then only
one car can be run in to the mill at a
time. To build the track that the CON-
pany desires it will be necessary to dig
a tunnel through the embankment at
the west approach to the high bridge,
the company filing a bond for 5000
that when the same is completed the
bridge will be left in as good state of
repair as it is at present, the Z. & N. W.
Ry. Co. to do the work and the same to
be under the supervision of the city
engineer.
The street and bridge committee re-
ported that il favored granting the
petition and the council took favorable
action by directing the mayor and city
clerk to enter into an agreement with
the McEachron Co. AS courtesy the
latter company will haul free of charge
to the city's stone crusher all the rock
removed in the excavation.

Grip Quickly Knocked Out.

"Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and my
self contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst Kind
of La grippe with all its miserable sy,np-
toms,'' says Mr. j. S. Egleston of Maple
Landing, Iowa. Knees and joints
aching, muscles sore, lead stopped up,
eyes and nose running. with alternate
spells of chills and fever. We began
using Chamberlain Cough Remedy,
aiding the same with dose of Chamber
lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, and
by its liberal use soon completely
knocked out the grip" These Tablets
promote healthy action of the bowels,
liver and kidneys which is always
beneficial when the system is congested
by cold or attack of the grip. For
sale By all druggists.

MADE TROUBLE.

The slight fall of rain, on Thursday
night, made trouble for the city's new
electric light system. At the corner Of
Third aud Scott streets the city's wires
had been laid avross the Wausau Eiec-
trio Co. 8 lines and the rain wetting
them through burned of the lines and
and as a result, all the residence lights
in the city were out for over an hour
The cause of the trouble was found BY
mere accident, otherwise there would
have been no light in the residences
during the night. On the west side
the cify's lines sagged onto and burned
off several telephone wires and these
in turn iell onto the Wausau Electric
Co s lines which burned them of and
put ont the store lights. A short cir
cait was formed. cutting of the
street lights on the west and
north sides of our city. II slight
storm causes so much trouble with the
city's electric lighting lines, what will
be the consequence when there is q
heavy Storm It's lines should be
gone over carefully and put into such
condition that here csn be no posi-
bilify Of DAMAGE to others. A 1--we
wire, burned of and upon the ground,
might cause our city thousands ot
dollars damage.

the needs of our children, to their na- lures: believe that it is the truth and the only truth fitted to enlighten them in their earlier years as well IS guide their steps throughout life itself And what a superb power the religion of Christ is! Observe it's comprehensive ness, for example. How marvellous and wonderful it is! On the one hand it stretches beyond the grasp of the mightiest intellect. On the other hand 1t contracts Itself within the narrowest limits. It provides matter for inex- haustible speculation and research to the student and the philosopher Yet, it enters into the nursery, and instills with gentle voice Divine wisdom into the minds of little children. This is true of Christ's religion because 1t is founded upon and answers to the primitive and universal principles of human nature. Let me illustrate: In the first place it reveals God as a parent. And the first sentiment that dawns in the hearts of children is: love of par ents. Again. it does not lay down harsh and meaningless rules. but teaches the everlasting principles of duty. And the sense of duty begins to make itself felt in the earliest stages of childhood. It speaks also of a fu- ture world and It's inhabitants. And children always welcome the idea of angels of spirits. and of the vast, the wonderful. the invisible, the unseen
 Above all, the Christian religion is set forth in the life, the history, the character. the person of Jesus Christ. Into the knowledge of Him supreme ly, parents should teach their children
 And how fitting and natural 1t Is. For, remember. His character, (sublime.

fawless. perfect). is yet remarkable for its simplicity, its realness, its genuine ness. It unfolds itself manifests itself. with the utmost naturalness amid the common scenes of everyday life. Hence, the principal features of Christ's char acter are seized upon and appreciated by children with wonderful readiness Again, note another excellency of the Christian religion parents should util- ize in training their children. viz: the truth that it Is not an occult theory. It is not obscured by abstract phrases. It
 is taught us in facts, in narrative above all in a person--Christ, the Lord and Life Giver. It lives, 1t moves, 1t speaks. and acts before our eyes in Him. Christian love. for instance. is not taught us in cold precepts. It speaks in gentle yet world-penetrating tones from the cross of Christ. Chris tian immortality Is not some vague promise. It breaks forth as the morn ing in living beauty and power from the tomb on the first Easter day It becomes glorious reality in the person of the risen Savior. And Heaven itself opens to our vision by His ascension. These truths are peculiarly adapted to childhood. appealing to both imagina- ton and heart They should be inn pressed upon the mind and affections with utmost care. May God give us grace and power to do our duty in the training of our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. And. at the last day, when we stand before the judgment bar of Christ. (our children by our sides), may we be able to say: Behold, O Lord, these children which were mine Behold, now O Lord. they are Thinei"
