Cast Aside" the offering at he
Biiou this week, is a problem play,
purporting to teach a moral. The
plot is carried out without mincing
words and there is no doubt as to the
meaning of the play. If you like TO
watch human nature, to observe the
many turns to study conditions in a
great city, and are willing to see the
truth handled without gloves, you will
enjoy Cast Aside" played at the
Biiou, an excellent cast.-Memphis

Pull together, brethren. We are all
here for the anne purpose. Then live
and let live. The best way to build
up your town is for each and every
man to pull together and not strive to
rend and tear down. All residents of
a town are partners and opponents.
In all likelihood, the more business
done by your rival the more you
will do. Every man who treats his
customers honestly and fairly will get
his share, and the more business that
can be secured by united effort, the
better it will be for ALEX.
In another column the county i'd
v~ertises for bids for moving the old
court house. The building will be
moved about a hundred feet west Of
where it stands at present and will
be put into condition to use for the
county offices until the new building
is completed. There is some doubt
as TO what will happen to the big
chimney when the building is moved,
as it has been feared for some years
that it would tumble down, but it Is
hoped that it can be blocked up Sc
curely enough to stand its short ride.
An eastern editor said that a man
got III trouble by marrying two wives.
A western editor says hat many of
: them have done the same thing by
, marrying one. A northern editor
says that a number Of his friends
, found trouble by merely promising to
marry without going any farther. A
southern editor says a friend of his
, was bothered enough when he was
simply found in the company of an
. other mans wife. Which looks much
like it's as much as a mans life is
worth to go near a woman, married or
single.-Ed.
F.. f. Youngburg was at Huron on
business a day or two the last of the
week. While there he looked into the
. delivery system used by the mer-
chants there, but as it has been in use
only since the first of the year not
= much light on how it works was OBJ
: tainable. The local merchants are
considering the question of having the
work of delivering one by one man
y and it is probable that this system
! will be adopted before long. 1t is
: thought that one nan with an auto
D delivery wagon could handle the de-
= livery work of all the stores much
. better and cheaper than under the
= present system.
u When the "girlie at central says
: busy" don't let yourself be worked
: into a froth and a sweat; don't tell
her in language all freckled with fire,
y to a liar. Don't paw the carpet and
i don't chew the rag, nor roar as a
/ bull when he sees a red flag, nor tell
J her in voicing that paints the air red,
you will have her tin-canned ere the
e sun goes to bed; but murmur in
sugary marshmallow words, twill fall
on her ear as the carol of birds, to
please ring You up when the line is
{ at rest, and then raise the party of
whom you're in quest; and when she
replies she will do so, just hang the
receiver up gently and not with a
bang.
