The Aristocratic Montenearin.

The Bulgarian may not have Il liking
for domestic service. but he is born
agricultural laboter According to Il
recent traveller. il you give him a bar
rem piece of land he will make it bios
som like the rose. while his Montene-
grin brother will stand and look on.
On the other hand, the Montenegrin
placed in drawing room always be-
HAYES like Il gentleman, while the Bull
garian in the same environment cannot
help being a boor. But then,' says
the London Chronicle. 1T is said the
Montenegrins are the descendants of
Servian aristocrats who fed to the
mountains TO seek freedom. The ex-
PLANTATION is thin. but pleasing. Of one
claim to culture. however, Montene-
gro cannot be deprived-she established
a printing press at Obod only twenty
years after Caxton began his laboTs,
and she printed beautifully. But the
Turks made 'pi' of everything, and the
press was not re-established till 1882"

IRON RIVER

At . meeting of the directors OF
the Wisconsin State Bank held in
this city last week, a proposition
made lby Cashier Ripley to the
Board that the bank purchase COWS
for farmers around Iron River who
want them, met with favor and the
cashier was authorized to GO ahead
with his pIans.s
The proposition which the bank
makes, briefly stated, is this: The
bank will furnish mich cows to the
farmers and the latter will pay for
them out of the earnings of the COWS
and will not be required to make
cent of cash outlay to OBTAIN the
stock when they are received.
Between the present time and the
first of April, the district around
Iron River will be canvassed and
every farmer who is in position
to take care of more stock than he
now has and who wishes to accept
the banks proposition, will be per-
mitted to do so.
The farmers in the vicinity OF
Iron River have lost, during he
past three months, hogs valued at
no less than five thousand dollars,
by cholera, and the fatal disease is
still spreading among herds not
previously affected,
Among the heaviest losers re-
ported to The Pioneer are Jos. E..
Andre, Isaac Hubbard, Harry Full
err, George Weir and Jos. Chante-
lois. Most of the herds have been
entirely wiped out, and few breed
ers had blooded stock which they
valued very highly.
Cholera is something that hog
raisers in this vicinity had not been
previously bothered with-at least
not for several years, and many
farmers did not suspect what was
the trouble until nearly all their
hogs were affected,
When in Chicago last week; Sher-
if Happle put in day or two in
automobile row" looking over the
various makes of cars with view
of buying one. He found one that
looked good to him and he expects
to own it by the time wheeling be-
gins this spring.
The Farmers Produce Excha nge
began shipping potatoes last week.
Two carloads went to Chicago
house, and next week some more
shipments will be made. The price
remains low and unchanged.

AS soon as he had dropped from

into the thick bushes that lined the

careful survey of the hill behind him.
Then he slowly and cautiously made
his way back through the underbrush

MEMORY IMPROVED.
Since Leaving Off Coffee.

Many persons suffer from poor
memory who never suspect coffee has
anything to do with it
The drug-caffeine-i coffee, acts
injuriously on the nerves and heart,
causing imperfect circulation, too
much blood in the brain at one time,
too little in another part. This often
causes dullness which makes a good
memory nearly impossible.
Il am nearly seventy years old and
did not know that coffee was the
cause Of the stomach and heart trou-
BILE / suffered from for many years,
until about four years ago." writes .
Kansas woman.
"A kind neighbor induced me to
quit coffee and try Postum. / had
been suffering severely and was
greatly reduced in flesh. After using
Postum little while / found myself
improving. My heart beats became
regular and now l seldom ever mo-
dce any symptoms of my old stom-
ach trouble at all. My nerves are
steady and my memory decidedly
better than while / was using coffee.
i like the taste OF Postum fully as
well as coffee"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. Write for booklet, "The
Road to Wellville."
Postum comes in two forms.
REGULAR (must be boiled).
Instant Postum doesn't require
boiling but is prepared instantly by
stirring a level teaspoonful In an or
binary cup OF hot water, which makes
1t right for most persons.
A big cup requires more and some
people who like strong things put In
a heaping spoonful and temper It with
a large supply Of cream.
Experiment until you know the
amount that pleases your palate and
have 1t served that way in the future.
