Born, today, to Mr. and Mrs. Dick 'Hartman, a son. Mrs. H. L. Barnes and baby, of Oshkosh, Wis., -came yesterdajO|| a‘visit of ten days with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. O. K. Rainier. Mrs. Wil|iam Traub and little daughter returned last evening from Wisconsin where they spent a month at Tomah, Kilbourn and Bpring. Lake. Earle Reynolds and Nellie Donegan arrived yesterday to spend a few days with his mother, Mrs. S. R. Nichols.

He was 111 only about two weeks, having suffered a hemorrhage while out riding one day. Our poorly informed and greatly disconcerted brother down the street employs over a column in his current issue in an effort to show that a Ford automobile that can not be purchased any place for less than SSOO is worth only S3OO if won In a contest, and at the same time trying to prove that a piano that can be purchased for $145 is worth $350 because The Democrat gave it a little advertising. The Republican Jias put on a contest so large that it surpasses .the understanding of the pigmy intellects in The Democrat office and no one with any idea of fairness will be influenced by the sour-grape tactics which are used by a newspaper that found it necessary to put on a cheap piano contest every few years to keep any subscribers at all.
