W. H. Alexander, genera! passenger
Agent of the Mnnitolia, has issued
circular to agents of the road, instruct

will commence July 3, and will

The liepuhliean caucus for the vil
lage of Morris will be held in Phcenix
Hall to morrow eve ing for the
purpose of electing delegates to attend
the county convention next Saturday
afternoon. If the usual interest
manifested the audience of Monday
eveuing will be double discounted
A ditch has been made from the
slough between the school house and
the congregational church to the lake
The ditch is hardly deep enough to
completely drain the slough but it has
accomplished considerable. This
the beginning which will end in mak
ing good residence property where the
water now is.
James Eagan lias made quite a num
ber of repairs upon his hotel upon At
Jantic avenue this spring, and has
built a new huiidingadjoiningit which
he is now using for a sample room
Considerable pains has been taken in
furnishing this new bulldingand some
of the fixtures, especially the counter,
•re remarkably fine. Notice Mr.
Eagan's advertisement in this issue.
A good hay harvest is assured.
There is everywhere a heavy growth
of grass and unless we have an im
mediate long continued drouth a good
hay crop is a certainty. Hay in this
county always has been and is now
very plentiful, but as large amounts
of prairie grass are being continually
turned under, and as there is a rapid
increase in the amount of stock kept
and a consequent increased demand
for hay this item is rapidly becoming
one of imi»ortance.
The circus has come and gone. The
advance agent did not advertise a
menagerie or even a circus of the
greatest order, and as no pretensions
were made there was no chance for
disappointment. The accompanying
brass and string band played well and
the performance in the tent was bet
ter than anybody expected it would
be. The handling of the cannon balls
was certainly good while much of the
tumbling and other performing was
better than the average. The audience
in the afternoon was small but was
better in the evening. There was the
s'rde show and the usual "afterwards"
concert to catch the last fifteen cents
th6"boys had, but then all shows have
them and this one must have them, of
course, in order to be complete. Had
the show been advertised longer in ad
vance and more thoroughly the per
formances would have beeji better at
tended.

Morris Public Schools.
r. N. KKNNTR, ffae public schools of the vUage
closed last Friday. During the early
part of the spring term the schools
ere closed for two weews on account
of the small pox sc ire which all our
readers will doubtless remember.
This interfered somewhat with school
work and delayed pupils in finishing
the years work. In order to make up
time lost as much as posssible,
..1 to eomplete the woik in the
ai ious grades.regular school work was
ontiiiucd to the last, no time being
taken for preparation of special closing
exercises and no exhibition was given
it (he close of the teim. Tlu* final
XMininations
for the year were given
he week before, classification for the
ensuing year effected and the school
was closed in a quiet way.
The school year thus closed has
been one of marked success and has
beencharacteri/.ed by hard and etlee
tiveworkon the part of the teach'ers
mil pupils. The school has been placed
upon the list of State high seheols
nd the first year of the course has
been completed In a highly satis
factory manner. It has also been a
period of grow th. The school has
become so large that the fine school
buildiug, in which the town has taken
so much pride, has been found too
mall for the accommodation of all
the pupils and last spring it was found
necessary to use the court room as
well and open a school upon the east
id« of the track. The school now has
i\v departments, all well filled and
systematically graded and organized.
Much credit is due Prof. Messer, the
principal, for the present prosperous
ont'ition of the sell* ol and bis resig
nation is regretted, but as a
graduate of Dartmouth college and
HI experienced teacher is to be his
uccessor the school will still be in
ompetent hands and will continue to
K* a power for the rightful develop
ment of the men and women of the
future. Jfiss Allyn will have charge
of the grammar department next
year, instead of Mr. Iticknell. Miss
tebbins has been re-engaged by the
board and will succeed herself in the
intermediate department for the com
ing year.
The names of the teachers for the re
maining departments will be
nouueed as decided upon.
Uncle Tom's Cabin.
C. 11. Smith has an excellent Uncle
Tom's Cabin Company. An enter
tainment Mas given bj'them in Plue
nix Hall 011 Monday evening to a
large and appreciative audience. "Were
it not for an unusual amount of real
merit tills plav would have been worn
out long ago. We have often thought
it worn thread bare but still whenever
I'nele Tom is announced by a good
company, crowds are always ready to
go and listen. Such was the case on
Monday night. It was known that
there were twenty-six members in the
company and that there would be a
variety of talentdisplayeconsequent
ly the hall was full. The heroic
escape of Eliza and George Harri
with their child the proselyte quaker
the southern home the good and
beautiful Eva and the pathetic scenes
of her death the queer freaks of the
Topsys the various experiences of
Uncle Tom the New England old
maid the deacon the typical yankee
the lawyers Marks & Marks and others,
though so old and well known, all
seemed new as ever and awakened as
much enthusiasm as ever. Some of
the plantation scenes were well ren
dered and all the "extras" were well
received, especially the barber act.
Some parts of the play, as usually ren
dered, were omitted but enough
character acting and singing was done
to more tliau make good the deficiency.
Having a large troupe a display of
varied talent is possible. The enter
tainment was a pronounced success.

The rain 011 Friday evening and
last Sabbath made bad roads but
helped the growth of small grains
wonderfully. The hot weather of
Friday and Saturday gave the corn a
vigorous start.
The creamery on the Beard form is
now ready and will commence
business the latter part of the week.
Parties from that farm with a com
pany from Hancock gave your corre
spondent and the lakes a call last
Sunday. The fish did not approve of
the jests as they were pulled out by
the dozen with hooks and lines. The
party had good luck in catching fish
but their lady friends did not approve
of the fisherman's f-tyle u turnii
home, with wet jackets etc. Giddings
and Hull, however --*y they can stand
it once per week i:g icng as they can
catch fish at whole sisle rates.
The town of Hodges has made
numerous improvements on roads by
the use of ditching machines. Fram
nas has also one some ditching.
Towns will find that the only way to
to make good roa^s is to ditch them
and thus'niake an outlet for the water.
Much ditching is also needed among
farmers. Much has been done and
much yet remains to be done. Any
one anxious to see the result of care
ful ditching should visit the farms of
Solseth, Malan, Thomasson and
others in this town.
There are farmers who are continually
saying that wheat will not do well
upon ground upon which wheat was
raised the year before. If such men will
visit my farm, they will probably
change their mind. My best looking
wheat is growing where I had flax
last year. Others complain that
mustard follows the flax crop. I will
ask them why mustard can not be
kept out of flax as other grain. Low
prices on flax have discouraged farm
ers in its production. True there
have been no profits in raising for
market for some time but as it is ex
cellent food for stock it should con
tinue to be raised. It is superior to
any other kind of fodder when cut a
little green and properly cared for.
Last winter I wintered 13 head of
cattle and 5 head of horses 011 two
loads of flax straw per week, feeding
110 grain, and my stock all came out
in good condition—much better than
the stock of some of my neighbors.
HOW TO SLEEP WELL,
No healthful sleep oomes except thai
whioh follows voluntary or involuntary
action of the body. Pedestrians fall
into sound, deep sleep as soon as put to
bed, at the appointed time for rest.
This is the sleep from voluntary
muscular exercise. A person in
good health Bits around the house all
day an invalid may all day sit and
lounge and lie down from morning un
til night without sleeping and both the
healthy man and the invalid, in the
course of the evening, will become
sleepy
and fall into sound repose, the result of
the weariness whioh involuntary action
brings about for the various organs of
the body, the heart, the liver, the stom
ach, the eyelids, work steadily every
day. The intestines are as ceaseless in
their motion as the waves' of the ocean
as these latter are always dashing to
ward the shore, so is the great viscereal
machinery working,'working, working,
pushing the wastes of the body down
ward and outward from the first breath
of existence to the last gasp of life.
There is not a movement of the system,
voluntary or involuntary, external or
internal, which does not require power
to cause it. When that power is to a
certain extent exhausted, instinct brings
on the sensation of sleepiness, which is
the result of exhausted power, intended
by nature to secure that cessation from
activity which gives time for recupera
tion, very much as a man who runs for
a while stops and rests, so as to get
stronger to run again. We get up in
the morning with a certain amount oi
reserved or accumulated strength in
the course of the day that strength be
comes expended to the point necessary
for the commencement erf a new supply,
which comes from rest, the rest from
sleep. Opium narcotics, all forms of
anodynes, cause sleep artificially, com
pelling rest. A horse may be tired so
that he cannot move he is compelled
to be at rest it is not the rest of tired
ness, hence it is unnatural. Anodynes,
in a sense, tie a man down they take
away his power of motion, they compel
a rest, but it is not the rest which is the
result of used-up strength, hence it is an
artificial rest causing an artificial sleep,
not natural and sleep which is unnat
ural cannot be healthful hence the
truth of the first utterances of this
chapter —healthful sleep comes from the
expenditure of the strength of the body
in various forms of exercise.-—Moll's
Journal of Health.

BEGGING LETTERS.
There are some things to be urged in
behalf of poverty, one of the chief of
which is that one is not annoyed by beg
ging letters. A reporter of the New
York Mail, who was sent to make cer
tain inquiries of a citizen noted for his
liberality, was shown a few specimens of
the importunities for help almost daily
made by mail. Among those he was al
lowed to copy were such as the follow
ing, the peculiar spelling being retained:
"Thinks you could do a kindness if you
could pay off a mortgage of $115 on a
piano or find some man in the Baptis
Church that would do it." Would like
you to send him money to go to college
with." "Wantsto be supported." "Her
husband had sore on his head that bust
ed out and she would n3t ask no man
for a nickle if she did not think he had a
big hart. Her husband never drunk no
intoxicating drinks, never gambled, nev
er used no bad language, never used to
bacco and never had a lawsuit." "Would
like you to go and see all the Captains
of the ocean steamers personal and see if
you cannot raise enough money to sup
port the grandniece of Thinks
you would like to give him money to go
to England." "Would like you to get
a car journal box patented for him."
"Would you have the kindness to lend
him $4,000 "Would like you to invest
in 2,000 head of cattle."

The Youth's Companion.
As a source of profitable entertain
ment for the family, no paper exceeds
in interest the YOUTH'S COMPANION.
Its list of writers embraces the best
names in periodical literature, and it
is evidently the aim of its editors to
secure not nly the best writers, but
the best articles from their pens. It
is a remarkable thing for a single
paper to obtain such a succession of
lively and brilliant stories and illus
trated articles. While the COMPANION
is in the main a story paper, the
mental, moral and religious training
of young people is an end kept steadily
in view. Its articles on current topics
are written by the most qualified
pens, and present, in a clear, yivid,
direct way, the fundamental facts of
home and foreign politics, and all
public questions. Its original anec
dotes of public men are invaluable in
their influence in stimulating right
ambition and a high purpose in life.
Every household needs the healthy
amusement and high moral training
of such a journal. It is published by
PKKHY MASON & Co.. of Boston, who
will send specimen copies upon ap
plication. 32

SPLITTING THE DIFFERENCE*
"Well, dad," he suddenly began, as
1M
placed a top rail in place, "I'm 21 yean
old to-morrow."
"Y-e-s," grudgingly replied the oM
man.
"And I'll be my own boss."
Spring Opening.
The old man looked troubled, and ii
was a long three minutes before he said:
"See here, Sam I believe you have
jumped ahead a year."
"Can't be, dad. The date is down in
the Bible, and in your own writing."
"Tis, eh? Wall, I never got any
thing right within a month, and I reck
on I let it run along three or four week*
before I put it down. We'll call it a
month."
"Not much! I'm going to work foi
Deacon Calkins to-morrow."
"Sam," said the old man, as he lei
the maul down beside the rail-cut,
"this 'ere fence has got to go up if it
tmsts the county. I'll shave the time
down to two weeks, and if you pitch in
smart you can call me old man after
noon to-morrow."
Sam agreed. It was better than
working for $16 a month."
"I WISH," he said, "that my father
"had been a miner and my mother a
laundress, that my sister had run away
with a circus-rider and that I had a
million, for then I'd be somebody in
New York society."—New York Mail.
ENOUGH labor and money are every
