oh, MRGgiei
A-stnnding In a garden.
Where posies dwell, galore,
There unused a lovely maiden
And this is what she wore:
A petticoat of petals
OF purest virgin white.
A bodice of plump orange,
She was a winsome sight.
Alas, she was alacking,
Her stocking of sea green
Encased but a single limb,
The slimmest ever seen.
She swayed to ev'ry zephyr,
She was so wondrous sweet
That God took pity on her
And named her Marguerite.

GRAND STAND WILL
BE BUILT
AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
DECIDES TO EXPEND
$4,000 NOW
New Sheep and Hog Pens to be Con-
s structed from Lumber Obtained from
Old Stand-$25 Asked From Each
Member to Help Defray Debt

The Marathon County Agricultural
society Friday night empowered the
directors of the organization to ne
gotiate loan of $4,000, and not to
exceed that amount, with which to
erect this year a new grand stand and
sheep and hog pens at the fair
grounds. Twenty-Five members at
tended the meeting though all had been
notified by Louis Cook, secretary.
Before the vote was taken a dis
cussion took place in which several
undertake such project. For some
time the question has been under con-
sideration and once before the as
ISOLATION asked for bids but the cost
of the proposed stand, much larger
than the one it now expected to build,
caused delay and reconsideration
Recalling the fact that ten years
ago the society went into debt for
nearly $4,000 and that it had taken
time and work to pay off the debt, and
that building costs are exceedingly
high at present, John Ringle, Jr., de-
clared the building of a grand stand
ought to be postponed. The sugges-
ton was made by August F. Marquardt
that the trees on the grounds be cut
and sold, through which the associa-
ton should realize $4,000 or more
1t was recalled that several years ago
the Chippewa Falls and Fond du Lac
associations went deeply in debt for
improvements made on their grounds,
which since have paid them

stefan is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like
pain in the stomach and bowels, collie,
and diarrhoea require prompt treat
ment, and have in many instances
proven fatal before medicine could be
procured or a physician summoned.
The right way is to keep at hand a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie and

prescribe a better medicine for these
diseases. By having it in the house
you escape much pain and suffering
and all risk. Buy it now; it may save
