I want your Butter and will pay you l15c per pound for good solid stock. W. G. Womack. Cash Grocery. Mrs. Peter Wilson and son, Fred, of Kansas City, who has been visit- ing John Pharis and family, have re- turned home|} Mrs. Stover will leave the last of the week to spend the winter in Illinois with her daughter and rela- tives. Pimples, boile aud other humors of the blood are liable to break out in the warm weather. Prevent it by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. No appetite? Then do not try to force food down; but use the most scientific means for restoring tone to the stomach. How? Why, by tak- ing Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and in a surprisingly short time. your appe- tite will come again, and come to stay. At Clinton the other day Mrs. Whitworth in cleaning house piled the rubbish in the yard and set it on fire. She watched it until it stopped burning and then went about her work. Her little girl aged 3 years, went and eat by the pile of ashes when her dress became ignited and the child was burned so bad; thatit died in a short time. Mrs. A.

Mr. Thurman was de- feated for school commissioner of this county by Frank Deerwester, and a few years ago located in Arkansas The Times is glad to learn he is do- ing well. We see from the Hume Telephone that the populist speaking advertised for Wednesday night wasa_ total failure and was indefinitely postpon- ed. The Union had this meeting largely attendud. Sometimes Atke- son's enthusiasm boils over and he talks through his hat. R. E. Steele, of Lone Oak town- ship, populist candidate for sheriff, called Tuesday and subscribed for the booming Times ‘Lhe Times is like a first-class brand of flour —everybody wants it, and to keep | posted as to local and general events they can’t do without the leading paper of Bates county. The sub scription list of the booming Times ; moves right along. The Republican Senatorial Con- vention, which met at Appleton City the 23d., nominated J. R. Hales, of Rich Hill, for State Senator by ac clamation. Two years ago Mr. Hales was the republican nominee for re- presentative of this county, and was one of the two or three nominees who refused to gell or be pulled off the ticket, and run the race through toa finish. Mr. Hales isa lawyer, a clever gentleman and his fealty to the Republican party can not be questioned. } To Exchange for Farms. Have two good residences, will exchange for farms.

This week the comwmittees hereto | fore appointed to look after the met | ter went to work with energy and vim and met with unexpected suc-| cess. The individual members of | jthe order in this city alone have| jeome down handsomely and in two, days’ work the soliciting committee had secured on their lists nearly $2,000. Monday night at a meeting of the lodge anether £1,000 was voted. | The business men of Butler, who | never fail to come to the rescue of every enterprise calculated to bene- fit the town and county, have ex pressed a desire to assist the order} in securing the home and Tuesday morning the committee was set to work interviewing these gentlemen, | and they have almost positive as-) surance that from $1,500 to $2,000| will be raised from-this source. While this canvassing is going on in Butler other .committees have been sent to the different towns, } lodges, and individual Odd Fellows | in the county and it is expected they will meet with success | J. P. Edwards has offered to do | nate 40 acres of land located just north of the city limite; a magnifi- cent donation, and reflects great credit upon Mr. Edwards’ generosity and enterprise, the land is well worth $4,000. A majority of the stockholders of the lake and park company. we understand, have agreed to relinquish and deed the lake and park grounds to the home, free of cost,provided the same remain open to the public as a pleas ure resort. There are about 40 acres of land in this gift with an artesian well 1.600 feet deep and an endless supply of fine sulphur water, a beautiful lake, covering 12 or 15 acres, boat house with boats, bath rooms, engines, ete. cost near $20,000. Ata meeting of Rich dill lodge, I. O. O. F. last week the members rescinded the resolution passed the week before agreeing to give their| influence avd support to Nevada, and the lodge unanimously agreed} to stand by Butler lodge and to as-} sist all in their power to secure the) home for this county.

They have now reached the ripe old age of 79 and 63 years No invitations were given on account of Mrs. Griggs’ trall health, A few of their neighbors } thought they would not let the day go by un- | observed, gathered at the home of the aged couple. At half twelve dinner was an- nounced. The table being decorated with flowers and fruit most handsomely arranged represented a bride’s table. The delicions dinner was served, after which came the nut opening, which was a real surprise to all pres- ent. Their daughters, Alice and Mary sent them a small box of gilded walnuts, fourof them having a small bit of ribbon attached with request that they should be placed at their father and mother’s plates and after dinner they should open them with their knives and take the kernel out. After a few minutes’ work with their feeble old hands the beautiful nuts were opened and to thelr sur- priec a $5 gold piece was found in each of the four nuts. Afterwards came the reading of the following verses composed by their daughter, Alice. Good music was afforded bp their son, Oscar and wife, on the piano and violin. The gueste didallin their power to cheer the old folks and make them feel like they were young again, A family reunion will be held some time in September, we wish them a grand re- | union. The following verses were composed by their daughter, Alice Griggs Fields, of Santa Barba- ra, Cal.: In Eighteen handred and forty-four, Two score of years ago or more Two loving hearts were joined in ove ‘To walk thie vale ’ till life is done. To bless this tie of forty-four, Many children played ‘round their door. In all we numbered just eleven, Four were the boye, girls were seven. And of this family two are gone, The first one left in life’s bright morn, Just thirteen years did Ilenry live, His spirit went to God who gave. Again the foe that we call death, Cast his shadows across their path Lizzie, the firet born, went this time, Wife and mother, sweet sister mine. In Santa Barbara’s genial clime, Alice and Mary bide their time, Emma’s in Portland, Annie too, And Denver holds our Lena true. Fannie and Edgar good betide In Indiana both reside, Far away from the old homestead Willie and Oscar have not fled. Nineteen grandchildren live to-day, And great-grandchildren, two they say. We all this wedding would attend, But since we can’t our prayers we'll rend. That aged hearts may young become As memory turns to days agone, When vows were plighted, hearts were true Dear Lord help them these vows renew. These fifty years have come and gone, With sunshine, shadow, calm and storm Now may the few remaining days Be epent in peace and love and praise.
