Incidents of Every Day Life Which Very
Few People Stop to Think About on
Account of Their Littleness.
Mardhficld, Mass., charges an even
million dollars for ono saloon liconsc.
Tho result is that the city has no legal
ized gin mills and tho drug stores nro
having a big trndo in paint noso
paint. State Journal. This is tho
kind of situation the Anti-Saloon
League desires to place this city in.
To vary tho program- a httlo wo will
also bavo 11 few blind pigs whore you
can lay down your money and tcceivo
on a dumb wnitcr a cool and invigorat
ing bottlo of ginger ale. Wo remem
ber once when wo had no saloons hero
of n Httlo drug storo incident. A man
with an appnrcnt limp camo into tho
diug store and complained that His
rheumatism was very bad. Tho drug
man said bo thought ho could fix him
up and reaching for his bottle poured
him out a generous glass of medicine
noso paint. Tho man drank it, made
a remark about tho medicine boing
awful bitter, made 11 wry face and left.
A short time after wo noticed tho
man on tho strcot and tho limp had
disappeared and the mediuino had evi
dently done its work. If it bo possiblo
that wo havo nn licensed saloons this
year it will bo romarkablo bow many
men nro troubled with rheumatism
In that event also many packages of
llayuor's sovon-yoar-old ryo will find
their way to tho express ofllco billed
to numerous young men of this city
A boom will bo created in the sale of
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey and Hos
tetter's Stomach Bitters and our drug
gists will bocome plutocrats. But this
will not come to pass as the people by
their votes will docido to have things
run in tho present good old way. Now
that tho approach of spring is at hand
ono sees many rubbish piles afire
throughout the city. Tho burning of
rubbish is all right but in numbers of
cases tho way it is dono is all wrong
It is too often loft to bo superintended
by a lot of kids who aro liablo to get
burned themselves or olso set tho sur
rounding property on fire. In this
part of tho country where the state of
the weather is so changeable from nico
weather to that of high winds great
care should be taken that fires are en
tirely out before left. Tho usual school
board tight which is always brought up
by ono 01 two individuals is again in
evidence. Tho present school board
has been a very harmonious and efli-
cientono and wo believe it is to tho
bost interests of ourschools to keep tho
board as nearly us possible as it is to
day constituted. Tho two members
whoso terut expires this year are T. C.
Hacker and L. II. Fort. Mr. Fort was
again nominated and Mr. Hacker de
clined and 1. 11. Holmes was nominated
in Ills steal. I'lio board as now con
stituted is eno from tho district, two
from tho second ward and two from
tho first ward. Both tho terms expir
ing being from tho first ward it is
nothing more than right that this ward
havo its share and bo represented by
two members. Tho personal animosi
ty of two or three Individuals who wish
to get their stingers in on some of our
teachers should not bo countenanced.
Did you ever ootico how easy it is to
stir up troublo and strife. One word
soinotimes causes more trouble than a
week's peco making will settle, This
is true in both sexes. However the
fair sex is the most inclined to forgive
and forget. As a rule a man waits a
long time for a chance to get even.
Have you noticed how the town has
commenced to pick up. New stores
aro getting to be a common thing.
And while everything else is going
along at a lively rato why not fix up
the sidewalk in front of vour ulace.
Tbo kindling season is about over and
it will bo safo to fix up. The kite sea
son is hero. The air is full of them.
The weather this week has commenced
U make tho farmers wonder when
they aro going to get at their spring
work. Tho people who know most
generally fay the least. This may bo
an old saying, but it is a true saying.
When a cannon goes off it generally
makes considerable uoisn. After it is
ail over tho peoplo wonder how such
