Now that the schools hiv« begun for 1894 95, arrnneements should be made to float the American flag in every district.

BE JIV SWEK1HEAKT.
Sweetheart, be my sweetheart, When birds are on the wing. When bee and bud and bubbling flood
Bespeak the birth of spring Come, sweetheart, be my sweetheart And wear this posey ring!
Sweetheart, be my sweetheart In the mellow golden glow On earth aflush with the gracious blush
Which the ripening fields foreshow Dear sweetheart, be my sweetheart, As into the moon we go.
Sweetheart, be my sweetheart When falls the bounteous year, When fruit and wine of tree and vine
Give us their harvest cheer O sweetheart, be my sweetheart, For winter it draweth near,
Sweetheart, be my sweetheart When the year is white and old, When the fire of youth is spent, forsooth,
And the hand of age is cold Yet, sweetheart, be my sweetheart Till the year of our love be told! —EUGENE FIELD.
Local and Personal.
The case of Mrs. Johns vs Porter Copeland that first came up in the Hancock Circuit Court and was taken away on a change of venue, was last week dismissed from the Henry county Circuit Court. This suit should have been dismissed nearly two years ago, but that the prosecution hindered it as long as possible in the vain hope of securing some sort of compromise. In the beginning, the suit was illegal and unjust. It was clearly a blackmailing scheme to obtain money. Very rightly Mr. Copeland is victorious without having to pay one cent.
The Carthage Gas Co. has raised the price of gas so that it is double the rate paid by Greenfield's citizens. The Record says: "the new gas rates are all right, provided the company insures good service. But if the said service proves no better than heretofore, it is simply an outrage to raise the price." Greenfield has as fine a service as there is in the State and low prices. Persons who desire to enjoy one of the luxuries of earth at the lowest possible prices, should move to Greenfield.

He has been a good friend and patron of the Democrat, always paying his subscription as though he was getting value received, and while he is a good Republican, we have the consolation of knowing that his three brothers, Lon, George and Frank, are on our side of the house, and as long as we are iu the majority we can afford to say a good word for Tom."
