'The I deceased was the wifeof W. s Frisbey wiio was canvassing this locality a few months ago in ae interests of a Chicago firm of county atlas publishers. Mrs. Frisbey was with her hus- ■ band here and assisted in drawing a plat of the town and township. Some one was prowling around Jack Carson’s house Sunday night about one o’clock with the evident, purpose

of burglary. Mrs. Carson was awake at that hour and looking towards the window thought, she saw a man standing there between thehouse and Place’s implement building. But, thinking that she might have been mistaken she paid little attention to the matter. However, shortly afterwards she again saw the man standing there. She then awoke Mr. Carson who got. up, but the fellow at. the window had in t fie meantime suddenly disappeared.

When you see something in a newspaper that you think is meant for you in the way of correction or criticism don’t be too hasty to assume the responsibility. Remember an editor must constantly be in search of something to write about, and if he was to keep out everything that might directly or indirectly seem to reflect on someone he would go crazy trying to find something t.o fill the columns If you don’t believe it just Irv some day to write five or six thousand words of interesting reading for the general public and see how it is.—Plymouth Independent.

IT COMES RATHER HIGH. A Medicine that Costs the Fabulous Sum of $9,600 a Pound. Dr. Arlington recently ordered 20 grains of a new remedy for certain nervous affections. He ordered this amount without ascertaining the price. The doctor knew that the medicine must be quite expensive but. he had not the re mutest idea that it sold for the fabulous price that it did. After sending in hirf order the doctor received the following letter from the firm handling the medioine: “Chicago, May 22, 1895. •J. W. Arlington, M. D.: DeakSih: V our favor of the2lHt inst. is received, an<| your order is duly noted, for which please accept our thanks As the price of the article for which you (•all is high, we take the liberty to write you before procuring it. for you, uh we do not have it in stock. It is put up in vials of 5 grains each, ami the price is $6 25 per vial. If you find it, necessary to wire ua please do so, and* we will obtain it for you with the least f possible delay. Awaiting your reply, we remain, Very truly yonrs, . J Chas- Truax, Grkenk & Co ** * The doctor did not send in his ordJr immediately, but called on the firm when in the city a few dava afterward. When he alluded to the price of Ute new remedy broad smiles played about the months of the clerks. They stated that they had been having lots of trouble, notnumixed with some fun, over the new medicine. They said in nearly every instance orders for the remedy had to be answered giving the price. One man ordered several ounces which would have amounted to about $3,000 Many other orders wonld have run up to a ridiculous amount—some being SSOO, SBOO, etc , etc. Tin’s medicine at $1.25 a grain would amount to S6OO an ounce or $9 600 a pound The doctor reduced his order

of 20 grains, which would have cost $25, to five gruiuM. The name of the niedi ■ cine is Cortuitin I I'olnta Mrs. Fret! Decker is visiting in Chi i cage. Mrs. H. S.

Greece produced her |mets and philosophers, but she sank in corruption at Inst. Ancient Egypt sn 1 Rome did the same, and the same will occur in onr own fair land unless we show miraelvea men. Thomas Pavne, Voltaire, Byron and others had brilliant minds, but. they saw religion ex emplified in lives of ungo llv leaders and priests, and this Rave them increns lug prejudice. The fact is we are writing our own destiny, and leaving our foot prints on the minds of our followers. Beecher said, “We must educate.” I believe it is time.
