When it comes to giving the news
some of these Cats papers sure deliv-
er the goods. One printed what pur-
ported to be dispatch telling that
the Supreme Court had declared there
was no fraud in the Hamilton recount,
and added, "This upholds Catts!" Now
comes the Bronson Times-D Democrat,
which referring to the Madison county
recount, declared the evidence was SO
convincing that the court ordered the
entire recount of Madison county to be
thrown out" Oh, yes-you should al
ways believe everything you see in
the newspapers.

justice due him, new party would

JESUS IS COMING AGAIN"

(By Rev. r. A. Ward.
The Church has long waited the re-
turn of her Lord;
Jesus is coming again,
She is still trusting His immutable
word
Jesus is coming again.
The long night of ages is ending at
last,
And daylight already appears,
Let the church awake from its
dreams of the past,
And Danish it's doubts and it's
fears.

The most natural time for the elm
NATIVE process is in the morning
when both the muscular and ervou

When relief does moi come readily, it
is an excellent plan to take a mild

An effective laxative remedy that is

Very little fall seeding Of grain was
done between Milton and Weston last
season. and as a result leading farm
ers of that section are predicting a
shorter crop than usual. J. N. York
has in about 500 acres ana Grant and
VIII Steen about 400, and there are
a few other scattered fields. Last
fall the ground was SO dry and dusty
that seeding was impossible and SO
far this spring only a few fields have
been in condition to seed. The
ground was packed nard by the
heavy rains and in some cases it has
been found necessary to break up the
ground slightly before the grain could
be drilled in. An estimate by a
prominent Dry Greek rancher of the
amount still to plant places it at
close to 30 per cent of the usual acre
age in crop.
