THIRD STORM PERIOD REGULAR! This period runs from the 10th to 16th, being central on the 12th, nearly coincident with center of Mercury period on the 13th. The Mercury period, as may may be seen by tho storm diagram, extends from the 7th to the 19th, covering centrally this third storm period, and touching both the second and fourth storm periods.

Things to look for: First of all, let us remind you again that Mercury is the sleet god.

The areas of rain will pas3 eastwardly over the country from about Thursday the 12th to Sunday the 15th, being followed up closely on the west and north by a tempature that will turn the rain to sleet, causing heavy coatings of ice on trees, shrubbery, wires and all exposed objects.

Everyone in the North Lyon county was greatly shocked when they learned the sad news last Friday night of the death of Mrs. Cora Parks and her infant daughter, which was caused by drowning in Elm creek on the farm of Wm, Shultz, north-east of Admire, last Friday afternoon, where the Parks family resides and while Mrs. Parks was temporarily insane. The funeral was held at the Allen M.

P. church Saturday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Smith, being' well attended considering the disagreeable weather, after which the remains of both mother and babe, were laid to rest in the same casket at the Allen cemetery. The case is most certainly a sad one and space prevents us from giving details of the affair, but the near relatives and friends of the departed ones will have the sympathy of everyone in this their hour of affliction, which will, sooner or later, confront us all.

B. WILLIAMS CO. BO Allen, Kansas town would say it nas got to De stopped and get to work, they could make a town of this to be proud of, instead of having to listen to people say, "if I could I would never go to Admire again find take my boys." I don't know as Admire is any tougher than any other town but a town is just what its business men make it. Not that our business men are drinkers, oh no, the most of them are temperance men. Almost every business man here makes this excuse for not doing anything.

I "can't" because it will hurt my business. Now, if those men will stop and think they will know it will not hurt their business, you see if the town is cleaned out of these men that spend their money for drink or gambling will have more money for groceries, meat, clothing, shoes, lumber, coal, banks, hardware, livery hire, and everything that money can buy, but as it is you know that they spend their ensh for liquor and go to the stores and-run a bill and you have to wait a year or two or three and perhaps you keep on waiting. Those men would not quit trading with you because you cleaned out your town so their boys could come without having such a terrible temptation before them.

The rains have made terrible roads again, the mail carrier comes along an hour later than usual this week; those who have heavy loads to haul are obliged to put two teams on a wagon, an empty wagon alone is a pretty good pull for one team.

Already there are some bad mud holes that" make one think of last winter.
