We are sorry that Charlie will be laid up for some time. School will be out on Friday, May 17th, and the children and teachers are looking forward to a much needed vacation.

We did not learn whete he shipped to, but the cattle were in fine cor.d.tlon. W. J. Blake shipped two carloads of shep to Pot (land last Saturday morning. It begins to lork like old times to see the stock beginning to move oaoe more.

The first three innings were very even, no one scoring, but after that the Olex boys kept gainng a little, the soore being 11 to 1 in Olex favor at the end of the game. We think Olex has a little the best team, but had Ione'a pitcher not heon suffering with a very bum hand we think that the game would have bean very close. The hot 8 will prohably play in the near future again and I think it will not be quite so one sided next time. Alex Lindsay was in town last Mon day getting a few of the neceei-.ities of life. Alex say that he has just returned from a trip over on Butter ireek. He says we Willow creek people will have to whip od a little, as they are a little ahead of us over on the other creek. He says the crops look a little better over there than they do here and that improve ments are somewhat better than ours. but they will all have to take off their hat to Alex when it comes to raiisng Iambs. Alex sold a January lamb a few days ago that made the scale bump at 120 pounds. Can you beat it? Farmers, mechanics, railroaders, laborers rely on Dr. Thomas' Electic Oil.

Stockmen and farmers if jou want to see a fine horse you mugt come to Morgan. Mr. Samuels surely lias the best horse in the county. John Miller, while running horses on the range, got his horse badly cut on a lot of loose wire. People take care of your wire, and do not let it get scattered on the range, fr horses are worth money. HAYSEED. STENCIL, LETTERS. Vrtd by Writers and Ifluminators In the Early Ages. Movable characters were known to flie niifleiils. They were used Id teach ing children, to rend. The ancients hud also stencil letters, which they used to secure a renuliir style of pen manship. They even made use of plules, thus open cut, containing un entire page. IT was placed on the papyrus to guide the pens of children, "an excellent uieans," salib Qulntll lan, "to learn them not to exceed the 'desired proportions." The Emperor Mistiiilau (A. I). SISi could neit her read oor write, an unexampled thing In )ne ot such high rank. When it was jecessary for him to sign his name he bad a sheet of gold through which were cut the letters of bis name. "Then," said Procoplus, "placing this tablet on the paper, one conducted the hand of the prince, holding the stylus dipped in purple on the type of the different letters, and took away the writing furnished with his signature." The same thing is reported of. King Theodorie and of Charlemagne. In the middle ages the Illuminators and decorators made much of such tab lets for tracing involved initial letters and even In a way composed enure n-nrksi. such as conies of the plain songs, etc. A chartered abbey near Mnvence Dossessed some sixty or tne alniinhets cut in leaves of latonu, a copper alloy. Later these patterns were replaced by stamps wnose lm nrint Is nroved by the evidences on the reverse of the page as early as the thirteenth century. Jn lzss tne monks of Fribourir published a treatise relating to money In this way, and It seems, according to a passage in Pliny' nnil another in Petronius, that these stencils were used to publish figures and designs as well.-Charles Vt . Hull In National Magazine. SUPREME COURT GOWNS. They Are Made of the Finest Silk and Are Quite Costly. It Is said that the cut. and style of the gowns worn by the justices of the supreme court of the United States are so peculiar that it is not always possi ble to have one correctly made. The wife of a former justice used to enjoy telling of her trying experiences when she wished to have made in rar- is the gown her husband was to use. The gowns worn there by scientists, scholars and students differ altogether from those our justices wear. In London any clerical tailor would have understood the kind of gown de sired, but not so in Taris. Wherefore, after many failures, the justice's wife gave Instructions to tne iusuiunuuie modiste who made her gowns, lhra modiste was entirely successful lu toruing out a gown for the Justice. The justice's gowns, which are al ways of the best quality of silk, cost upward of $100. When the supreme court was first organized the justices wore quite gaudy gowns. A portrait in oil of the first chief jus tice. John Jay. now hangs in the rob ing room opposite the supreme court chamber, and in this portrait tne cnier justice is represented as wearing a black gown with a broad bright red border around the neck and down the front It is edged with gray, and the sleeves show n red border at the top and bottom, also edged with gray. Uarper's Weekly. A Curious Windstorm. A peculiar freak of weather is tne storm called the "williwau." This form of storm is confined to that far off Island Tierra del Fuego. The coast (s indented with deep fiords crowned with high mountains. Down from their gorges drops the williwau. A low, hoarse muttering is heard in the distance. Suddenly, without the least preliminary puff, a tearful blast of wind drops upon the sea. The water is not raised into waves, but driven into fine dust. Fortunately the shock lasts but ten or twelve seconds, and cnlm follows at once, for no vessel could stand such a wind for even half a minute. During the coming and go ing of a williwau the barometer may tie watched to drop a tenth of an inch or more and rise again at once. She Wet a Skeptic. In pioneer days a settler near the present town of Albany. Mo., bought for his wife the first cook stove ever seen in that part of the state. It was an object of great curiosity, and the woman's next door neighbor, who lived ten miles away, came to se how It woufd work. Without comment she saw the dinner cooked. She ate the meal with Judgment held In reserve and then remarked, with a shake of the bead: "Well. Sarah, it cooks nil right, and the victuals taste good, but I don't be lleve It will ever be a success." Mistakes. To make mrstakes Is human. Every body makes mistakes, the best of us included. To acknow ledge mistakes Is commendable. It Is evidence that one Is learning by experience, and It shows that he has the courage to acknowledge a blunder. Courage Is a rare quality lu these days.
