It is uettiDg to l>e the proper thing for farmeis as well as merchants and other business men to have printed sta tionary. And we can see 110 reason why they should not take their proper | place among business men by adopting business methods in as many ways 11s possible. There is a combination of j business and sentiment in giving your J farm a name like "V alley \ iew Place. "Maple Spring Farm" "Maple Dale.', or something of the kind, as it lends a eer -1 tain dignity and individuality to the , place, an increasedt sense of pride in the j proprietorship thereof, as well as addi tonal importance in t.te eyes of produce dealers or commission merchants with whom yon are dealing. A small invest ment in printed stationary giving your residence and business, such as breed ing of thronghbred stock, the inanfac tnre of dairy produce, etc., might prove of no slight advantage to yon. as well as giving a certain decree of satisfac tion. And when yon conclude to have some note heads and envelopes printed remember that the same can be had at the CITIZEN* office as cheap and good as anywhere. >* 1:1 <; H1 JO I i 11001> NOT KS.

We watch with deep and abiding interest the heroic battle of the Cuban patriots against cruelty and oppression, and our best hopes go out for the full snccess of their determined contest for liberty. The government of Spain having lost control of Cuba and being unable to protect the property or lives of resident American citizens, or to comply with its treaty obligations, we believe that the government of the United States should actively use its influence and good offices to restore peace and give independence the island.

The attraction at Park Theatre Fri day, April 22, will be the Joshua Simp kins Company. It is a strong rural comedy drama, opening with a realistic scene of rural life, showing Skinner Tavern with Uncle Josh's Wild Briar farm in the distance. The play pro gresses, abounding with interesting situ ations, until the climax is reached, in the third act, when a human being is helplessly bound to a log to be cut in twain by a mammoth buzz saw, and is only saved by the timely asrival of Uncle Josh. "Joshua Simpkins" was written with the view of keeping an audience thoroughly amused and it fully carries out the author's intention. The plot is not allowed to interfere with the comedy parts to any great extent, thus producing a play that is not only thrillingly interesting, but is said to contain as many laughs as there are grains in a "heaped np" bushel of wheat.

It is a common mistake people make in supposing that the only object of the liusiness College is to grind out book keepers and stenographers. Business College education is useful to everybody. The man of wealth cannot tell if his book keeper does his work properly unless he himself understands the science of ac counts. Just as the best housekeeper need not do the work herself but she knows how, an ! hence knows when it is properly djne. Tiie p.jar man needs i business education to be aide to manage i his resources to the best a Ivaniage. The moial is plain, attend the Uutler Business Coll and School of Short hand 319-327 So it'll .Main St., tvliere the best methods of accountin ; and steno graphy are taught, Bicycles. — SEA I'indley the I'liotographer be« fore buying a wheel, He will sare ycu s nne money 0:1 it.
