Orly a small crowd turned out to hear
and see Brush, the magician, Saturday
night last In the Opera ]louse. The
weather was wet and v. ry unfavorable
and Saturday evening 1s a poor t'rne
for an crttcrtalnment of any kind. Those
w:to attended, however. were very well
pl:asci and agree that some of the
tricks were truly marvellous. It Is
regrettable that a more suitable night
had not been chosen.
Newspaper advertising is the cheapest
channel of communication ever estab-
lished by ntan. A thousand letters with
one cent stamps will easily coat 615
to circulate and not one envelope in ten
will b. opened. because the very 'menage
Is an invitation to the waste basket.
If there was any cheaper, rest assur-
ed that the greatest merchants in Anter-
ica would not spend individually sumo
ranging up to a half million of dollars
aed more a year In newspaper adver-
tising.
We understand that one or two of
our young ladies who were anxious to
sic the comet arose earlier than usual
the other morning for that purpose, hay -
!Ng previously earefully prepared a
piece of smoked glass to prevent Its
hrilliant rays from injuring their eyes
or browning their complexions. In the
semi darkness of the early morning and
by the nteilunt of darkened glass it Is
not strange that the fair ones were
disappointed. ]however, they are to be
commended upon the spirit that prompt-
ed them even If not upon the means
adopted. It may be stated that the com-
et at present is only visible by the aid
of a telescope. except when the atmos
;there is very clear, and then it is doubt-
ful if it can ba Been by the naked eye.
There are opportunities on the farm
to -day that the boy of twenty-five years
ago never dreamed of. The modern
farm gives scope for the boy's beat en-
ergies. His best skill ar,d intelligence
have every chance to display themselves
Tr.e consumer is denianding food pro-
ducts of higher quality and is paying
'tier prices for them than he ever did
:',re. To produce these in sufficient
.a.nitities to supply the demand. af-
fords an opportunity for successful ad-
vancement that no other calling affords.
Tr a boy who leaves the farm for the
city has only five chances in one hun-
fired of making good. No country boy
can afford to take a chance like that.
Stay on the farm. boys. The chances
for success there are many times great-
er than in the city` --

doctor's office and had the wound at-
tended to, after which he was able to
return to school. and is now not much
worse for the occurrence, which might
have been attended by serious results.
MAKE THE TO\VN BEAUTIFUL.—
Thee Board of Health has Issued its an-
nual notice to "clean up." This notice
Is chiefly intended to nuke the town
more sanitary. May we add a few hints
gathered from different sources to as-
sist to making the town more beauti-
ful ? The Council has done much along
this line Ln late years, and if it suc-
ceeds In making the streets more dust-
less, keeps weeds down a little more
thoroughly, clears ditches and wate r-
coursce acrd (tints lower branched trees
It will b? doing its share fairly well.
Hut individual citizens can do most of
all to forward the march of civic im-
provement. Not all desired can be done
In one or two seasons; but a little ad-
vance. each year will make a great dif-
ference in even five years. "One and
\11" get to work thaw and see what a
wonderful transformation can be made
during this spring month of April.
