The summer girl who parades the
business streets with her sleeves roll
ed up to her elbows, would think she
was disgraced for life if she was
caught in the kitchen in such a pre
dicament helping Tier mother wash
the dishes.
our iriena r red 1'atterson was up

The Union Ledger says: "L. G.
Todd, who was injured by being

rious than at tirst indicated. He has
suffered very much the past few days,
but it is hoped there will soon be a
change for the better." The many
friends of the old gentleman in this
city and vicinity will regret to learn
of this, and hope that his condition
will not prove dangerous.
If people growl because we fail to
give every scrap ot news, such as the
arrival or departure of friends visiting
them, or of social affairs, or of the
heaven-sent babies that visit their
homes, the fault is chieily their own,
so long as they dodge around the cor
ners and take no trouble to give the
editor or reporter the infoimation.
We are not a mind reader or medium,
and can not report news that does not
come within our knowledge, but are
obliged to get the most of news the
same as a milkman gets his milk by
pumping.
I In the county court the case of A.
W. Neihartlagainst the estate of Hen
ry Hollenbeck was decided by Judge
I Travis on Friday, The nature of this
was a claim by Neihart against the es
tate founded on a promisory note giv
en by the deceased Hollenbeck, who
was the father-in-law of claimant.
The claim was vigorously contested on
the alleged ground that the note was
a forgery. Jesse Root represented the
administrator and Hon. Wm. Deles
Dernier and Judge Chapman repre
sented the claimant. Judging from
the decision of the court the battle
proved a draw, the court entering a
judgment of.$23 upon a claim of -S400.

"Give me live cents' worth of dog
meat," said a small, barefooted boy in
a tattered hat, coming into Hatt's
store a few days ago. "Don't give me
so much fat as you did before," he

sick."
Charley Graves of the Union Ledger

The traction engine becoming a farm
necessity, theretore all bridges and
culverts should be erected with, a view
of meeting the load that these ma
chines place upon them. The accident

R. M. Shrader, son of Z. W. Shrader,
of Mt. l'leasant precinct, has just re
turned from a ten day's visit to Traer,
Kan., where he also went to look at the
country. He called at this office and
ordered the Journal sent to Floyd
Ilarshman, son of George Harshman,
of Avoca, who lives near Traer. Mr.
Shrader is not very favorably im
pressed with that section of Kansas,
and says he prefers to remain in good
old Cass.
Man is a funny little cuss and hasn't
long to stay, he flies around and makes
a fuss and then he hies away. Some
men imagine they are great and try to
tear up jack, but each one meets the
same old fate and trots the same old
track. Great Caesar's dead and turn
ed to clay, and so is Cicero, and Alex
anger's gone the way the rest of us
must go. The sages, heroes, poets, all
the men of wealth and worth into an
open grave must fall and crumble back
to earth. Then let's not join the mad
affray, and struggle like the duce, and
agonize cur life away for really w hat's
the use? Let's live and love and sing
the while, and give to everyone a
smile that cheers the hearts of men.
And whether we are crowned with
Mowers or chilled with winter's snow,
with happiness let's all the hours ere
we turn up our toes. I
