South Bend is to have a public 1 library building. A site for the I library building has been bought, for $7,700.

Doing business among a reading public without advertising, s ays Printers’ Ink, is a good deal like climbing the stairs of a twenty story building, when the elevator is running.

I have read your daily articles on hell, and take great liberty of asking you to give my idea a space. I will vouch that every good woman will agree with me that has a sprecing husband that spends all his money, besides all he can borrow, and slays away from home for days at a time; then comes homo to be nursed back to health and expects love and kind ness from his wife.

“This is the winter of our discontent,” for a fact. It was 16 below zero last Tuesday morning. It was among the very coldest nights during the cold snap. Joe Maloney, of Albion, has secured a position on the Big Four running west from Indianapolis, and his headquarters are at Danville, 111. A Paw Paw, Mich., firm recently presented a customer of long standing with a meat, bill seventeen feet in length, which called for S9OO. The bill was paid.—South Bend Times. A young man in Lowell, Mass., troubled for years with a constant succession of boils on his neck, was completely cured by taking only three botles of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Another result of the treatment, was greatly improved digest ion with increased avoirdupois. LaPorte Argus: The weather lately has been hard on quail, and where it is known there is a flock, they ought to be given shelter and fed. It is also important to give them waler, for it is believed as many of them die for want, of water as they do for want of food and shelter from the deep snows and extreme cold. Huntington Democrat: In the court room a lawyer may call a man a liar, scoundrel, villian or thief and no one makes a complaint when court adjourns. If a newspaper prints such reflect ions on any man's character there is a libel suit or a dead editor. Can it. be that every one believes the newspaper man and no one believes the lawyer? The world is full of people who live beyond their means, and from year to year someone pays a portion of their rent, grocery, dry goods and other bills, says an exchange. They are civilized barbarians, who forage on civilizati m, and they are found in all grades of society. 'The causes vary, but the principal one is the attempt to keep up appearances. The misery that comes upon people because of their living beyond their means is enormous. Here is what, weather prophet Hicks thinks is in store for ns. He predicts that the roughest and most trying part of the present, winter will fall in February and March. He says: “Let all concerned make a note of this. We believe that April and May wilt usher in an early season, and that the condilions will be good for pushing agricultural pursuits. Heavy hail storms and a marked tendency to local cloud burst will characterize the precipitations of these months.” Passenger train No. 23 on the Dike Shore railroad, which left. South Bend shortly afler 6 o’clock Sunday evening, rushed past, a freight train just east of New Carlisle at, a tremendous rate. The great suction of air is supposed to have pulled an insecurely fastened door of the freight cars from its fastenings, for it became loose and tore out six sections of window’s and casings of one of the coaches. Several passengers were hurt, but not seriously. I’heir injuries were given attention at Laporte.—South Bend Tribune. The Toledo Weekly Blade. Os the now nearly twenty thousand regular publications in the United States, there are but two or three weekly newspapers published for general circulation in every state and territory, and of these the Toledo Blade is the best and most popular of them all.

It is made es pecially for family reading. It. gives the eiitire news of the world each week, in such condensed form as will save reading scores of pages of daily papers to get less information. lie publican in politics, Temperance m principle, always on the side of justice and right, it is just the paper for the rising generation, and a great educator for the whole family. Serial stories, wit and humor, short stories, household department,question bureau, farm department, camp fire, Sunday school and young folks are a few of the many other prominent features of this great paper.

A man was being wheeled a wav with the dead, at the time of an P pi. demic. The victim suddenly raised his head and demanded of the man who was taking him along the street where he was taking him to. “To H ie dead house,” was the reply. “But I am not dead,” said the poor man. “Oh, you be quiet,” said the man who was pushing him along, “I guess Hie doctor knows more about this than you do, and he says that you are dead.”— Ex.

It is little use for the local editor to waste bis Inngs and sprain bin spine id trying to boom a town when the zens all stand around with their hamP in their pockets and indifferently wait for something to turn up, says an exchange. If the capitalists or business men do not put their shoulder to the wheel and do a little boosting it is use. less for tho editor to try and boom things. He can write ‘ boom” articles till lie gels bnldhended, but if the citizens themselves do not take bold ami push, the town will forever stick in the mud. Os what use is it for the local paper to suggest improvement and new enterprises if the suggestions are never acted upon. One man can not boom a town. If requires the concerted action of all the citizens. When one man shoulders a town and attempts to carry it there are always a lot of cranky kickers ready to jump on top of the load. Unity of action is what is needed. Stallion for Sale. Samuel Koontz, Jr., bus placed his stallion, King of Waukegan, No. 4448, on the market for sale. Mr. Koontz paid $1,500 for Ibis stallion three years ago, but is now offering it for the exceedingly low price of S3OO. This stallion was bred by A. Z. Blodgett, Waukegan, III.; foaled May 12. 1888.
