Not Worrying

Down in one of the towns of CEN
trail ILLINOIS there was a Yankee
who made no great pretentions but
who always had a little money to
lend upon undoubted security. He
lived IN modest one-story frame
cottage. A neighhor built new
house across the street from Uncle
Silas, two-story house with tow
er on one corner extending up an
other story. A townsman accosted
Uncle SiIas and thought, in consid-
Grafton of his proverbial modesty,
to get rise" SO he said, well,
Uncle Sllas, you will have to be
building a new house now: Lem
Hankins has just built new house
across the street from you and his
is two stories higher than yours. F"
YES" replied Uncle Silas dryIy,
LENS house is two stories higher
than mlne," then he added, ''but
own the two stories"

Old kendrick Paper

John Carr brought two copies of
the "kendrlck Times to this office
the first of the week. One was
dated November 3, and the other
November 10, 1894. Judging from
the contents uf the papers there
was red hot campaign on about
that time in this locality. A black
headline in the Nov. 10 issue, Re
publican Tidal Wave Sweeps the
Country" would indicate that even
26 years ago the democrats were
struggling against ODDS. The paper
contained an account OF the village
board meeting. One of the prin-
cipal topics under discussion was
whether the board could issue more
warrants when there was no money
in the treasury to pay them. The
serious difficulty was the light bill
which amounted to over fifty dol
lars a month. 1t was the time of
year when streets lights were
rather convenient luxury and hard
to do withot, as the town was wet
and people didn't go home to bed
as early as they do now. Bart
Helpman was city clerk then, and as
the outstanding bills against the
city seem to be all paid up to date,
he must have met the financial
crisis and tided over the temporary
lack OF available cash.
In those good old days the rail-
road companies carried regular ad-
vertlSing and the country editors
rode the cushions" just like hu-
man beings. Now ye editor re-
ceives neatly typewriter pages of
reading matter.w the request to
please publish as free advertls-
ing"
DR.. Rothwell was carrying pro-
fesslonal card in the Times, just as
he now does IN the Gazette. Most
OF the business houses carrying ads
IN the paper, have, changed manage
ment. McCrea Bros. were IN the
hardware business and H. P. Hull
had a general merchandise store.
People talk about hard times now
but the following item taken from
a copy of the Times speaks for
itself:
There are many children in town
and IN the country round about who
are much in need Of clothing and
shoes to make them comfortable for
the winter. In the country about
Southwick there are families thai
are almost destitute. Will thoss
who have cast off garments anc
shoes please leave same at the store
of Mr.. D. Keller where they car
be gotten by the ladies and made
over so as to supply great need?"
