When the hour of seven rolls around, a spring actuated match holder is caused to ignite a match and start the fire and the pot boiling. Whether some one will go a step further and piepare the coffee and meals over night, so that all the wife will have to do will be to set the table, is as yet a question.

Some one asks the Frontier, “What is Kissing?” and then goes on to tell all about it himself, in this way: ‘Kissing is by nature a gift. A gift is a present. A present is a token of respeot, love, etc. When you wish to kiss a young lady, just find a nice seat, (single pre ferred) then muster up your courage to about sixty degrees above your heart. But first of all, get a girl, (white, or black will do if it is dark) and then go through the above program. You will probably be coaxed to vote for the “Democratic” party or to sing with “Ig natius Donnelly” but it doesn’t matter, “it is only a promise.” Put your arm around her plum and pudding neck, draw her strawberry jam face .to your alabaster lips, and—wait a minute. Look into her divine features. Don’t open your mouth as though you were going to swallow her, but lay her head on your protective arm, gaze into the unexplorable, part her lips lightly and then—wait a minute. Screw your courage up to the last test or notch and then smack her. Where? Well, any place on her head from her chin, up. How does it feel? “Aw Hush.” Requiescat in Pace. Died, at Stafford, Neb., Thursday, Sept. 7, 1899, Patrick McGrane, aged 72 years, 5 months and 21 days. Mr. McGrane was a native of Dublin, Ireland, and emigrated to Quincy, Mass., while a young man.

The remains were laid to rest in Cal vary Cemetery Saturday, followed by a large concourse of friends of the deceas ed. He leaves a wife, five sons and two daughters to mourn his loss.
