This iS I2nSinqss

For the second time in our life we suffered the loss of our business by fire, but we are still above the wave and if those who owe us will come promptly to our relief we will tide over the late disaster that costs us our building and most of our stock. We are not begging but feel that every person who owes us one cent should come in at once and settle with us without having us to go to the further trouble and expense of calling on you.

OId Morgan County Residents.

We failed to call attention last week
to a celebration which took place on
SUNDAY, February rs. in which two of
our aged and respected citizens were
personally Interested. 1t wa the
G5th birthday Of Rev. j. f.. Sim, and
r. Z. Townley, both Of whom were
born in Morcau township on the 18th
Of February, 1899. They spent the
dav at the home Of Rev. Sims, and Rev.
c. A. White of the Baptist church was
invited in to participate in the ami
vcrsary with them.
After a fine dinner had been prepar-
ed by Mrs. Sims and had been fully en-
loved ~ the select party the afternoon
was spent in a most agreeable manner.
These two native born Morgan county
veterans called back old and pleasant
memories and referred to many events
which had come up in their lives dur
ing the sixty-iive years of continuous
residence il their mother state, county
and township. 1t was an unusual
event coupled with a pleasure that is
better imagined than described.

Horse in q Wen.

Quite Il ripple Of excitement was ere
atcd in the northeast part Of town last
Saturday by The favorite family horse
owned by E.wyn Price falling into a
well in the barn lot at their home,
The horse wa running loose in the
lot and probably becoming thirsty he
walked onto the platform surrounding
the well when the boards gave way
and the animal went down, hind feet
foremost, into fifteen feet of water.
No one about the place saw the mis-.
hap a. the moIncnt, but "A farmer pass
ing rave the alarm and Avery Price
came to the rescue promptly. All the
assistance available was pressed into
service. The horse, in the meantime,
by houndering, kicking and hghting in
his cold bath, managed to keep from
drowning. Ropes, straps, etc, were
procured and by securing a looped rope
over his back and behind his fore legs,
the horse was pulled out, but not with
out considerable effort. The whole
had 10 be done quickly to save the ami
NAL from drowning, and the only bad
effects noticlblc wa, his general stiff
ness for several days after the horse
had been dragged from his premature
bath-tub.

DUTCH DRAUGHT DOGS.
Take the Place of Donkeys in Belgium
and Holland.

From the New York Tribune.
III Holland and Belgium the dog occupies
the place which the donkey does in several
other countries. In the former the sight of
a couple of dogs dragging along pushcart
loaded with vegetables flowers or shining
milk cans is familiar one. They trot
along underneath the cart, within easy
reach of the blunt toe of the sabot of the
woman who walks behind it to guide it by
the handles attached at that point. In Bel
GUM the dogs are hitched in front, as the
Russians attach their horses to their dros-
kies, three abreast and are guided by a
pair of rope reins fastened to muZzle
about the nose of the dog in the middle
Recently the National Cart Dog Association,
organized to regenerate the original race of
Belgian mastiffs, held its first exhibition OF
cart dogs The Flemish breeders have
found that in crossing the Belgian mastifs
with the Great Danes, with the idea of In
creasing the size of the cart dogs, and so
securing additional strength, they made a
mistake. The result proved to be animals
with week headquarters and disproport:oh-
ate limbs. Now they are endeavoring to
revive the original stock
The women and dogs of these two little
countries are another evidence that human
nature and canine nature are the same the
world over. When one sees the Whlte-caped
Belgian milk-woman with her dogs standing
near well, the woman having oattefeo
can Slung on her forearm, one lnStlnctlVeiv
becomes suspicious. The suspicion is con-
firmed when one discovers a policeman de-
tanning at the roadside pair of sulky-
faced mlkmaids, with their dog team ana
cart laden with slender-necked milk cans
while he jots their names in his little book
against a charge of watering milk. When
the cart comes to a standstill the dogs are
no longer draught animals, but dogs: Lhey
sit or lie complacently down ana oil thelr
tongues from their open mouths. Appar-
entity they have forgotten that they are
animals intended for human companion
ship, but condemned to hard labor Tor me-
