For Instance, the farefrdm Chicago to Milwaukee Is only $2.00, including dinner or l»erth. There are seven separate lines on 1 .ake Michigan, and no more comfortable or enjoyable summer pleasure trip can be found than that •which can be enjoyed on these splendid steamers. The boats go up as far as Frank ford, on the east side, and to Kseanaba and Green Bay on the west side. If you contemplate a northern trip drop a ]Kstal to John Singleton, Passenger Agent, foot of Michigan Avenue, Chicago. and receive dweriptioii of route*, names of steamers, time table and rate* of fare.

THERE aro lively times now in wheatfields, potato patches and cornfields. The prosperity and comfort of many families, besido the men who guide the plows, aro dependent upon their successful work. That which grows from the ground is the foundation upon which every department of trade and commerce rests. It is thus that the farmer boy, who drives his team and whistles early and late iu the frash furrow, is a thousand times more a king among men than the idle youth lounging on street corners and eating his bread in idleness.
THE Fourth of July is right upon us. With its approach the flresof patriotism are figuratively supposed to IK rekindled in our breasts, but in truth the public pulse beats more sedately year by year on thisgreat anniversary. The time will come, doubtless, when gunpowder and oratory will not enter into the Fourth of July programme. The holiday is thoroughly familiar to our people. Children know all about the Declaration of Independence, and don't care much about hearing it read in the hottest weather, and under aggravating circumstances. Neither do grown people care for orations, which are apt to take the same range, and, of necessity, are mere repetitions. __
IF you think of going north this Summer drop in at the Main street office of the C. iV K. I. road, and Mr. Bnshnell will present you some elegantly illustrated books, descriptive of noted watering places and rambles in the enchanted Summer land.
