Mr.. E. o. NicklaSOn had hne team
of mules on hand last week which
weighed 400 each.
Mrs. Passmore, of Guthrl county
was visiting friends here last week.

years.
Our doctors say that they have to
combine all the disiderata of every
furruginous tonic prescribed by every
school of medicine as an antidote for
green corn and cucumbers.
Mr.. Simpson, manager of the Au.
dubon County Telephone Company's
lines has the equipment in fine condi-
ton and all working admirably.
Then the girls too,-bless 'em. They
are perfect ladies.
Jack O'Brien is perambulating on
crutches. One of his peaceable old
nags touched him little heavy on
the shin bone, putting that limb out
of commission.
Anker Hansen, ofSharon township,
brought five young wolves to the
auditors Office last week and received
the bounty, $40. If this state of af-
fairs keeps up Auditor Train will be-
come quite wolfish.
The newspaper Is law book for
the indolent, sermon for the thought
less, library for the poor and an ad-
monisher for the lawless. 1t may
stimulate the most Indifferent but
it cannot be published without cost
and sent free to subscribers, and that's
no Joke.
1t is your duty to encourage Audi.
bon county papers, extend to them
the nourishment to which they are
entitled. Pay your subscriptions
promptly and send a few copies to
relatives and friends at distance.
They will appreciate the favor and
SO will the editors.
If, perchance, copy of this paper
should fall into the hands of anyone
who is in search of a new location-a
place where church, school and social
advantages are given emphasis, and
where you can live out your allotted
number of years without fear of pesti-
lence or famine we say, like one OF
old, "Come thou with us and we will
do thee good" without particular
emphasis on the "do."

man and his ability to transact coun

Children Annoy Postmaster
The Postotfice department has de
cided that children going to and from
school shall not be allowed to ge
their parents mail The postoffice
habit among children has become 8
nuisance both to the public and The
postmaster, and the department has
done wisely in making this decision
This has been one of POSTMASTER
Wilson's greatest trials as the chill
dren go to and from school,
We hope this will be observed ant
no other means need be used to en-
force this law.
