A philosopher soliloquizes thus: "A
poor man buys a horse from a stranger
which turns out to have been stolen.
The rightful owner comes along, proves
his property and takes the animal. The
'poor man has no recourse. Again: A
rich man buys a note of hand from a
stranger. It turns out that the note
was obtained by a fraud. The man who
made the note comes along and is com
pelled to pay the note on the ground
that it is in the hands of an innocent
purchaser. Why this difference? Was
not the man who bought the horse an
innocent purchaser, too?" Stanton
Times.
Some time ago an item in an eastern
paper spoke of the horn-bible now on
file in the Boston library as the oldest
one in the United States, whereupon an
O'Neill man wrote to say that he had
one in his possession antedating the one
in question a few generations. Now
comes an Ord man, Frank Stara,and
says he has one older than any spoken
of. His edition was printed in 1528, or
about ninety years after Johannes Gut
tenberg had invented movable types.
One noticeable feature about this old

Liebert lost a shed and some stock.
Men who have been in Boone county 20

with any one in the business, but simply
felt that I would like to praise a little,
one of the moat beautiful places that it
has been my fortune to become a resi
dent of, our town. 'Morgan Hill is five
years old, has five churches, a large and
commodious school building with three
proficient teachers to look after the
young ideas. Our immediate vicinity is
mostly composed of eastern people. I
trust that some one may be profited by
readiag tkMlias."
