When it comes to trustees, the Democrat will give the facts and figures—is it always does, tint its readers may know actual Condi- 1 tions.

The Lidles" Sowing society held a very protttable meeting at the home of Mrs. T D Kern in Sr, Mary’s township, on Wednesday of last week. The society is at pres ent in a flourishing condition and comp wed of about fifteen members . who have safely hotbed through then rners clous and rigid initiation, which seems to be a wonder t > all ' thosj outside of the organization There is one thing that we know to be true, and that is it is not a secret society, because we have never yet saw a woman society that existed long on secret principles. The motives of the society ate beyond doubt good, but aomoof I their subjects are simply amazing. We wish the society a life long en dui-anoe. and an abundant increase of members, but we would like to see their record books. Their next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Jesse Swartz, on Thursday February 16, 1905. Lion Grove. Rev. 8. C. Cramer, of near D >catnr, attended the series of lecture* at this place over the Sabbath. The greatest snow fall of the se<. son occurred Sunday and the esti ■ mated depth on Monday morning was from 12 to 14 inches. Mrs. Catherine Eckrote moved her summer kitchen from West Linn Grove to Petroleum l»*t Thursday. The same will be ar ranged for a temporary dwelling. 1 E. D. Chiller the stite Sunday' school worker, deliverel a sprits ■ f lectures Saturday and Sun lay, and was well attended, considering the state of the weather, in a very novel way, he defined the difference between a collection and an offering, by a father and son. who sat, at table, when the father helped.

the ix>y to a large nice piece of meat The father presently noticed that the urchin did not eat hi* meat and on inquiry, found that the meat was being reserved fur the dog. Tli* paternal command was, ”Son eat ycur meat!” Not wishing to lie disobedient, father'* will was done After dinner the head of the household gathered up the hone*. scrap* of meat arid crumbs of bread and says. ‘"Here, non, take this and feed your dog Tue youngster sought hi* pet and said, "Oh, my poor doggie. 1 had an offering for you, hut my father intervened, so now 1 have nothing for you but this collection.'’ J hann Hoch, the Chicago big* mist and wife murderer, a* alleged, and who has more than fortv-three combined experience*, give* the following happy epigrams to the Chicago Journal: "Marriage is not so much of a failure as a sort of a mutual compromise, if 1 escape from my present predicament I might marry again, but I would not marry «no of th« wives 1 have had before. I would never marry a woman unless she had money. Money is the only compensation for the disappointment of married life. Marriage is a lottery, but worse it is hell. Before marriage a man sw.-ais to love, after mar riage he loves to swear. Man's troubles wi h woman began in the Garden of Elen, and I often wonder if it will ever end. Many a time I told these women before marriage that I would gladly die for them, and now 1 wish I had kept my word. It is no di-grace for a man to make a mistake in marrying Nearly every man that marries doe* that. Don't invest in marriage bonds, unless they can be made to pay Cash dividends. In Germany a cash bonus goes with every wife No cash, no husband. If 1 get out of this scrape, it s mo to Germany | A widow is not so sorry for the death of her first husliand us her Seoond husliand.

’ Connecticut Man Nearly Choked to Death at t Night. I , No comment is needed on the fol lowing letter. It tells of fearful exI nerienves that have fortunately been I overcome. I “Dear Sirs: ■ Often in the night my wife bad to r wake me up because I was almost I * choking to death with catarrh I had r one of the worst ca*« that was ever I known, and skilful physicians said it I was chronic. Fortunately a friend told me of I Hyomei, and I used this treatment j faithfully, and to day am free from | catarrh I used Hvomei perhaps five times a day and could soon see aj II great change. A complete outfit and iI an extra bottle cured me. I always l carry a Hoymai inhaler in my pockjet, so as to prevent any colds or i j slight catarrhal attacks that are common at this season of the year. Yours Fraternally. Thomas Fincham. Putman, Conn. It is the easiest thing in the world ' to cure catarrh or catarrhal colds if ! you use Hyomei. Breathe its health giving, balmic air fora few min- ’ utes, and your catarrhal trouble will ( soon be cured. The complete outfit costs but one I dollar, and consists of an inhaler that can be carried in the pu-s« or 1 I vent pocket, a medicine dropper, and a bottle of H vomei. The inhaler lasts a life-time, while extra bottles, if needed, can ba obtained for 50 cents. In f there are scores of well 1 known people who have been cured ’ of catarrh by Hyomei. It does not ‘ ; help you, a will return your i money in accordance with the guar 1 lan tee c give with every outfit. Obituary. Hiram W.
