The Onaga Republican from Onaga, Kansas • 8

A Cough HEADACHE Ala atom. 25 Dm 25c A lot of kids here, being outs with the principal of our schools, are carrying revolvers. For what purpose, we do not pretend to know. A boy found with a pistol on his person should be sent to the reform school. This is an enlightened country, and to give way to the whims of any1 individual is but giving way to anarchy.

And did you ever think of it the parents of many children are to blame for lawlessness of the land? They give the children their way, defend them in their cussedness, whether it be against the teacher or a neighbor. Then the parents cry. A Simple Cold Cure. Krause's Cold Cure, in capsule form, is easy to take and does not affect the head or hearing like quinine. Try it today.

Price 25c. Sold by J. A. Kester. WHEATON DEPARTMENT DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS and they are legion, have importuned him to become a candidate for the office of county clerk the coming election.

Lair is popular, an efficient officer, is good to everybody, and we predict that it will take a pretty good one to defeat him if he should consent to enter the political arena. Don't know his intentions. Sheriff Cooper has had a busy week. First he took Ed Williams to the pen; next he took a car load of horses to the Kansas City market, and lost a cool hundred over what he was offered here; then he attended the sheriffs' meeting at Topeka and helped them resolute; after which he took old man Ford to the asylum, and now has a poor, unfortunate woman to deliver at the Topeka asylum as soon as the roads will justify. A negro at St.

Marys was found in a dying condition on the sidewalk last Sunday morning. From all we can gain it would appear that the darkey had been on a toot, and attempted, to go home on the icy pavements Sunday morning, and had fallen and split open the base of his skull, from which injuries he died a little later. If it were not for whisky some men would live a little longer, while others would die sooner. It is not understood that an inquest will be held. Last week the commercial club of this city was reorganized by the election of W.

F. Hill, president; Dr. T. R. Cave, vice president; W.

H. McGowen, secretary; and E. T. Conklin, treasurer. The executive committee is composed of Hon.

J. K. Codding, W. S. Anderson, and George H.

Taylor. The railroad committee is John Collins, L. W. Crowl, W. H.

McGowen, J. K. Codding, and W. F. Challis.

The work before this club is bound to be to the benefit of the town, and we are glad of it. his pen knife. Pete says he won't fool any more with a pistol. WESTMORELAND LETTER. We were pained to learn of the death of L.

G. Ransom, of your city. He was a man of sterling worth, and a man on whom you could depend. When you know of a man who suspects any and every man of dishonesty, look out for that man; he is dishonest, ninety-nine times out of one hundred. Look out, and see for yourself.

Dr. J. T. Youngman, of Moody-ville, is the authorized agent for the "old reliable nurseries," at Parsons, Kan. This is one of the best nurseries doing business in these parts, and the doctor is all right to deal with.

He is an old vet. a good fellow, and to be relied on. Uncle Joe Williamson, of Louisville, blew into our office one day last week, and striking a tragic attitude exclaimed: "He who toot-eth not his own horn, the same shall not be tooted." By the way, Joe is one of the best and most successful advertisers in this great old county. Shiner, the land man, has 240 acres of good farm land for sale at $20 per acre. It is nicely located; close to market; handy to school; fair improvements; 90 acres broke; spring and well water; small orchard; well fenced, and a very desirable place.

Must go now or the owner will keep it for a spell. A minister of the gospel was here a few days ago, asking for a warrant for the arrest of parties for shooting craps in Havensville. Craps and cigarette smoking are on a par, and should be tabbooed. No decent man will indulge in either at this stage of life. Drink whisky, if you will, but for God's sake don't have all three charged to your account.

The friends of Lair D. Hart, 'TTHE Republican will be thankful for any news Items furnished this department. If you will take an Interest the department will be of mutual advantage. Advertisements will be accepted at 7c an Inch per Insertion, 30c an inch per calendar month, and reading notices at 5c per line. The Republican has the largest circulation in Onaga and Wheaton of any paper published.

State the needs of your town In this department. It will cost you nothing. I have made a most thorough trial of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral and am prepared to say that for all diseases of the lungs' it never disappoints." J. Early Finley, Ironton, O. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral wont cure rheumatism; we never said it would.

It won't cure dyspepsia; we never claimed it. But it will cure coughs and colds of all kinds. We first said this sixty years ago; we've been saying it ever since. Three sites 25c, 11. All dratfjsts.

Consult your doctor. If he says take it, tbsn do as he says. If he tells you not to take It, then don't take It. He knows. Leare tt with him.

We are willing. J. C. AYER Lowell, Mass. jNewsy PLEASANT HILL.

Cause a 32 bullet in the head. Low and Herman Alexander returned from their trip to the southern part of the state. Clarence Force and wife visited with friends in Westmoreland, Monday and Tuesday. Walter Harris, of Irish creek, has been visiting with his uncle, Chris Ladner, the last week. About ten men from hero attended the sale at Emile Bonjour's last week.

They report things sold cheap. There are four or five families that get water from the well at the school house, and also water for their stock. Mr. and Mrs. Canfield started to Onaga, Monday, but the snow was so deep they had to turn back and come home.

Guy Force, of Wheaton. who had been shucking corn for Mr. Doyle, returned home this week. The snow scared him out. William Fisher and Herman Hupfer, who have had their cattle in a stalk pasture, in Marshall county, since November, brought them home Saturday.

Miss Sadie Ingraham was taken sick Tuesday, with a severe attack of la grippe, and had to dismiss school for the rest of the week, but com minced again Monday, Rabbits are plenty, but not many are killed. One of our hunters shot eight times at one poor rabbit, and another five times, and the rabbit only winked his eye at them. They ought to join the army of Uncle Sam. As Pete Allen was monkeying with a revolver it was discharged, the bullet striking him on the thumb going in half an inch. Ben Wells dug the bullet out with Farms, Ranches, AND City Popety.

IF you want to buy, sell or exchange either, It will pay you to call on or write to me. 1 have a well-selected list and can fit you out with any kind of a deal you want. C. A. O'MEARA, Onaga, Kan.

CASTOR I A Tor Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature OF WHEATON AND VICINITY. There will be a box social and Kansas Day exercises at the school house next Friday evening. Boxes are to be sold at auction. All come.

Henry Toothaker left, Tuesday morning, for Holtou, where he intends taking a course in Camp bell University. Henry is a bright young man and a hard student. Mr. Ayers, a good-natured and prosperous farmer, of near Wa- mego, was in this locality re-' cently, looking for a buyer or a renter for his farm in that vicinity. Several of the pupils of room 2 are preparing themselves for the diploma examination in the spring.

Regular attendance and hard work are needed for those who aspire hr a diploma. Rev. Erffmeyer, of Holton, and a presiding elder of the Evan gelical church of that district, spent a part of this week with Rev. Bower. The two elders held meetings at Westmoreland, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Dave Green has recently enlarged his ice house, giving a capacity of about seventy-five tons. He also has a gang of men at present putting up ice. Wheaton will not suffer with the heat next summer, however warm. It is said that one of the Republican's correspondents, a man who has taken the Keeley cure, greatly sympathized with the jointist's family of this place and spoke sneeringly of those who tried to abolish the joint. We wish to say that tho family of the gentleman named had our sympathy while he was being treated.

The Wheaton school library will in the near future have a number of additional volumes. The parents should insist on their children remaining at home in the evening and spend their time reading these books, which will be instructive as well as interesting, instead of spending their time upon the street and making acquaintance with all kinds of evils. Children in the street are too frequently thrown into the companionship of those who are foul-mouthod and misleading. Mr. Morton 'is on the sick list.

Oscar Stevens is home on a visit. Henry Graff is sick with la grippe. We expect to hear the wedding bells soon. Mrs. J.

W. Canfield spent Sunday in Onaga. Claud Corell went to Moody-ville, Monday. Mrs. Abe Washburn is added to the sick list.

McGatline, of Washington county, is visiting with his sister, Mrs. Henry Lolley, of this place. J. N. Wilson is having a house built on his ranch near Olsburg.

The Taylor Bros, are doing the work. Ed Bushey does not think it would be policy for him to attend the box social Friday night. We wonder why.
