ID. w. Clark as artist, and N. G. Cole
of Nebraska, and X. M. Herman of Tio-
nesta, last week finished the survey of a
road through the dense wilderness from
Kellettville to point near Seldom Seen,
in jerks township, where it Will con
meet with the public road leading to Mar
ienvile. The distance is about nine
miles, and although the toughest kind of
surveying was encountered Mr.. Clark
says the road will have practically level
grade the greater portion of the way.
About nine o'clock on last Saturday
while Alex. VanHorn, merchant at
Frosttown, was in attendance upon the
circus that was holding forth in Byron
town, fire broke out in his warehouse
and sleeping apartments and before 1t
could be extinguished had consumed the
entire building. BY concerted efforts on
the pal of the populace Mr.. VanHorn
saved his new store building that is al
most fiaished right next door. Loss is
estimated at about $500, with no insur-
ance. Express
-Maude writes "Will you kindly in
form an anxious reader as to what house
party is?" Certainly, we are here simply
to be as useful rs possible. A house par
ty is one that is confined principally to
the house rather than to the barn, wood
shed or corp crib. Some of them last
quicker than others, but most of them
hang on longer than the hostess finds it
pleasant. AS she may have an opportu-
nifty, however, of getting even later on,
she smiles ana says she's having lovely
time.-Venango Spectator.
-Lanlord Weaver laid three tomatoes
on our table this week, the likes of which
we have not seen this season. The larg-
est weighed an even pound and the
others were not far behind it while all
were beauties. Now Charlie don't get all
the credit for this fine showing of garden
product, for we saw Mrs. Weaver setting
out and experimenting the care of these
tomatoe vines right from our Office win
dow, and Charlie has been in evidence
mainly since the fruit began to ripen.
But cur thanks, just the same.
The story is told of au old bachelor
who bought a pair of socks and found
attached to one paper with these words:
"I am young lady of 20 and would like
to correspond with a bachelor with a
view to matrimony" The name and ad-
dress were given. The bachelor wrote
aud in few days got this reply: "Mama
was married 20 years ago. Evidently
the merchant whom you bought those
socks of did not advertise, or he would
have sold them long ago. My mother
handed me your letter and said possibly
| might suit. am lS."
1t is now evident that Roosevelt is
going to be badly clicked this cam
paign. We have received from The Cou
pom Press, Washington Heights, Chicago
book of % stickers like postage STAMP
only larger, each being a half tone por'
trait of the president with the title "Foul
Years More For Teddy" They look
very neat on letter head or envelope
and as the idea is rather novel they will
no doubt, be "lick cd" by thousands o
| Roosevet's admirers. The publisher'
will send sample to parties sending ter
cents and mention this paper. This is
special offer to our readers.
There is but one way to boil roast
ing ears" writes Penlope Perkins of tht
Eli Dorado Republican. Put on po
of boiling water and break it with lit
tie soda, skim the water, and put il
another vessel in order to get all the lime
out of it. Add teaspoonfull of granu
lated sugar, several pinches of salt, and
when the water comes to boil, put IN
the roasting ears, cover tightly, and boi
furiously till thoroughly heated through
from 10 to 20 minutes-and serve hot
! 1t will be cooked in a way that one car
eat three or four ears-my husband car
and often does eat SIX ears and asks iol
more"
1t is said, you know, that our Ian
guage is the most intricate in the world
You will understand how true this is, il
YOU read the following: "a sleeper is one
who sleeps. A sleeper it that in which
the sleeper sleeps. A sleeper is that OF
which the sleeper runs while the sleeper
sleeps. Therefore while the sleeper sleep:
in the sleeper The sleeper carries the
sleeper oyer the sleeper, under the sleep
er until tho sleeper which carries the
sleeper jumps the sleeper and wakes The
sleeper in the sleeper, by striking thu
sleeper on the sleeper, and there is nC
longer any sleeping in the sleeper on thu
Aeeper."
The fact that $50 dealers. in milk il
this State have been detected recently
using formaldehyde to preserve the fiuiC
is discouraging, Various other poison
were found in use by other dealers. AnC
only a comparatively few dealers under
go this inspection. The punishment in
flicted for such crime is trivial. Hun
dreds of infants are killed by the fraud
lent use of such posons by dealers in tn
cities and the larger communities wher
