See the upside down dancer in the newest, 11 A Breezy Time.” - Next Friday night. New subscribers to The Democrat this week by yiostoflices: Rensselaer R-R-l, i; Valparaiso, 1; Sparta, Wis., 1; Cleveland, Ohio, 1. Geo. R. Iveevor writes us ter' change the address of his Democrat from St. Lawrence, S. D., to Burdette, S. D., the latter being a nearer postoffice. He says most of the small grain is sowed thereand that he likes the country so* far very much. “A Breezy Time,” which wilK be seen at Ellis opera house May 15, is one of the most effectivefarce comedies in town this season. It is diverting without being inane, and has a slight story which makes a very strong vehicle for introducing the various specialties of different members of the cast, each one of whom is an artist in his or her line. Friday, May 15.

The Spencer will case lfas been transferred to this county from White. This is the case in which Dr. Frank Spencer, of the medical -faculty of Michigan University, sues for an equal third shnre in his adopted father’s (Dr. William i Spencer’s) estate, valued at £250,000. Dr. Spencer bequeathed his estate to his daughter, Mrs. S. A. Carson. and the latter divided equally with her sister, Mrs. C. D. Meeker. The case will probably be quite an important one and be hotly contested. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Saltwell returned last week from spending the winter with their daughter Mrs. John Sutton and family at Lebanon, Mo. Mr. Saltwell was quite well pleased with that section of the country and thinks it a good place for a man of moderate means to locate. Apple growing is one of the chief industries there, while wheat, command other cereal crops also do well. One man who had a 160 acre apple orchard, sold the crop on the treea last year for $15,000. Rev. Father Henneberger of the Sacred Heart church preached another temperance sermon at his church Sunday evening which was largely attended, no other services being held in town. It was an even mere notable etfort than his sermon of a few weeks ago, which has resulted in a war of temperance sentiment that has swept over the township. In the nature of the last shot before the legal battle began such an impassioned and convincing argument and plea for firmness and persistency has rarely been made, and it has gathered the temperance people intc a solid phalanx that now seems unbreakable. — Benton Review. Health Officer Washburn says that a disease is prevalent in this vicinity, a modified form of smallpox, known as Epidemic Varioloid orS wine-Pox. It starts with symptons of a severe attack of grippe, followed in a few days by an eruption which takes no definite course in its development, no two cases being greatly similar. It is easily transmitted and very contagious, but not dangerous. - People should avoid all persons* who have the disease. Thosehaving it should keep clear of other person* in order to prevent the spread c. the disease and stamp it out ai soon as possible. Vaccination has little or no effect on the disease.

Traveling Is Dangerous. Constant motion jars the kidneys which are kept In place in the body by delicate Attachment*. This is the reason that traveler*, trainers, streetcar men. teamster* and all who drive very much suffer from kidney disease in some form.
