THOSE PICTURES.
An Explanation Demanded and
We are Forced to Show Down.
I I.ct the Guilty Ones Stand from
Under.
laist we week pu'l sl.el the following
squib:
'Wo understand that there are more
than one married man in t liis town
carrying around in their pockets the
picture of a handsome young woman, and
tii it woman is not his wife either. We
don't care to call any names at this time
but we will specify next week if any one
wishes."
This created a considerable stir upon
the sheets, and by actual count we were
a>ked by twenty different persons to
name the party or parties, and we have
no doubt that some of the parties had
the picture that we had reference to in
their pocket at the time they approached
IIS.
Well, be that as it niav, we hope tliev
did, wnd if all '.lie jieople who spoke to
us idiout the matter are guilty of carrying
the lecture the town is in even liettei
sliajie than we were aware. The picture
r? tVrred to is that of a very handsome
young wpman, and if you are not in
im.-se.sioii of it you will wish you ware.
The youne lady's name is Mas Anna
1 Wiuict.s Williams, of l'ltiludelph'a
an I her picture ornaments one side of
every silver dollar. Hope you don't
leel had about it.

Some Sickness in Ton /;.
Wo are very sorry to see that diphtheria
is petting a foothold in town,
| and wo four that if it is not checked
I soon it will become epidemic. There
I nre several new cases in town. Seveti
j houses were quarantined with the
! lings Saturday. We are glad to say,
I however, that on account of the
1 prompt work of lite physicians there
has been few cases that resulted fatul.

! Can there be nothing done to prevent

This disease among the little chilf
dren is as much to be dreaded as the
Small Pox.
There is also several cases of fever
t about town.
t It is absolutely necessary that contagious
diseases should be reported
to the proper authorities, so that
c' proper quarantine measures can be
1 promptly taken. Lives are too precious
for any evasion and no excuse
will be accepted. This must be done
- or the public will know the reason
e why.
