visitors , Sunday.
William Schmidt and Laura Gut were mar
ried in McCook , Tuesday. Here's to them.
Lebanon Methodists have already raised
over a thousand dollars with which to build a
new church , and expect to largely increase
that sum , and put up a fine house of worship.
The heavy floods of earlier in the summer ,
with the attendant loss of stock , decaying
animal and vegetable life , are doubtless re
sponsible for the unusual prevalence of fever
in the Beaver valley , just now.
The Lebanon team defeated the Norcatur
club , last Thursday , in a warm game of ball.

composed the invincible battery for the home
team. The score was 14 to 6. This Thurs

times the "period" comes too
often sometimes not often
enough sometimes the flow is
too scant , and again it is too
