ENJOYING a Wolf Hunt.

yesterday, having come up from
Denver the evening before. Rupert
Parker, of Waterloo, another old
DEBORAH boy, who has many friends
here, came the same evening. Hav-
ing read about so many wolves roam
ing through Winneshiek this winter
they decided to come up and indulge
in wolf hunt with some of the To-
cal nimrods-such mighty wolf
hunters as l.. o. Reed, T. H. Conner
and others. They started out this
morning, and we presume Winnie

bOunties on wolf scalps before the
hunters set through securing the
woods.

Preparing For 10Th Trip.

Mr.. Ben Bear, Decorah's pioneer
clothing merchant, is making pre-
parations to leave in a few days on
his 18th semi-annual purchasing
trip to New York City, in quest of
an immense stock of all the latest
things the clothing and furnishing
manufacturers have to offer. These
purchasing trips of Mr.. Bear mean
whole lot to the people of Decor
all and vicinity, because it brings
right to their doors, stock of
clothing second to none in the coun-
try. Every garment is personally
inspected by Mr.. Bear and when he
has them on his shelves he knows
exactly what he is selling, and also
the satisfaction that there isn't any
thing better or more up-to-date
made. This season has been some
what backward in great many
lines, and consequently the Square
Dealing Store has inaugurated a
bargain sale that will clean out ev-
cry article before the big new spring
stock arrives. The big store is full
OF bargains right now, that won't
last long, and if you havn't had
your share you will be the loser. Mr.
Bear makes it a policy each year tc
make big reductions to clear the
shelves, and this year, owing to the
backward season, exceptional bar
gains are being offered.

Mr.. Grounding to see if he can see
his shadow. If he sees it, according
TO an old saying, he will return for
another six weeks of sleep, and it
means that number of more weeks
of real winter for us. AS we haven (
had any winter so far this season,
guess we won't let the grounding S

The House BY The Side of the Road.

The House BY The Side of the Road.
(By Sam w. Foss.)
There are hermit souls that live
withdrawn
In the peace of their self-content;
There are souls, like stars, that dwell
apart
In a fellowless armament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze
their paths
Where highways never ran
But let me live by the side of the
road
And be friend to man.
Let me live in house by the side
of the road
Where the race of men go by
The men who are good and the men
who are bad.
AS good and as bad as |.
i would not sit in the scorner's seat
Or hurl the cynic's ban;
Let me live in house by the side OF
a road
And be a friend to man.
see from my house by the side OF
the road,
By the side of the highway of life
The men who press with the ardol
of hope,
The men who are faint with the
strife.
But l turn not away from theil
smiles nor their tears,
Both part of an infinite plan;
Let me live in my house by the side
of the road
And be a friend to man.
I know there are brookgladdenet
meadows ahead
And mountains of wearisom
height,
That the road stretches on through
the long afternoon
And stretches away to the night
But still l rejoice when the traveller
rejoice
And weep with the strangers tina
mourn,
Nor live in my house by the side o
the road
Like a man that dwells alone.
Let me live in my house by the sid
of the road,
Where the race of men go by
They are good, they are bad, the
are weak, they are stron&
Wise, foolish-so am |.
Then why should l sit in the scorr
er's seat
Or hurl the cynics' ban?
Let me live in my house by the sid
of the road
And be a friend to man.
