About twenty couples from Grand Rapids. went, to. Cohasset Thursday night where they gave a dance in Hughes’ hall to their fisends of that village. The ~Grand Rapids party acted as hosts of the occasion and a most delightful time was had. P. S: Kennedy, one of Cchaxset’s prominert cittzens, was doing busi- ness here Wednesday... Mr. Kennedy is very enthusiastic over the tuture prospects of our western neighbor and argues that Cohasset is’ bound to be the metropolis of Itasca county, ‘The unpaid taxes on the home of Mrs. L. O. D’Anjou is $191.56. ‘This amount» could easily be raised at the dance to be given.on.the 7th inst., uf. all who can easily afford,to do so will buy .a. ticket...

The trustees are August Johnson, Hans Nelson and Lewis Carlson. ‘The so- ciety has no church building here as yet but it is the intention of the active members to begin at once the work raising funds with which to. build in the future. For the present services will be held occasionally at the homes of members in the village by Rev. Adolph Salverson of Duluth. The rev- erend gentleman will be here on the 12th when he will held services. There’s no use exaggerating. The roport that Hugh Fox was thrown twenty feet straight up in the air and was held fast in the boughs of a tall pine while coming from the dance at pants were not torn off, and Billy Gray didn’t toboggan through a hole in the ice. It is true that the quar- tette were scattered around through the forest foya considerabie distance in several different directions and Mike Lynch did sy his prayers, but they were all rescued alive and safely landed in Grand Rapids by the driver. It’s almost impossible to frame up a party of any size without a “knocker” or two works in, and it was one of those chronic ‘*knockers” that first started this story. Thomas McAlpine has sold his | Itasca laundry to Ben Johnson who will take charge of the business about the first of March. Mr. and Mrs. | McAlpine will move to W ashburn, | Wis. and there engage in the Jaundry | business. ‘This popilur couple will be much missed by the people of Grand Rapids.

In- terment was made in Itasca cemetery. Don’t. Ring The Fire Bell Unless you know there is something | more than a chimney ablaze. Ln some instances a chimuey / may have all | the appearance of ngerous ¢ gration, but generally a very little invetigation will soou determine tke true nature ofa fire. The volunteer firemen willingly turn out at all hours and in ail kinds of weather to save from distruction the property of others. For their gallant work they receive no compeusation, lL care should be exercised in callivy them out... They will get very tired of false alarms and it has a tendency to de- moralize the department. In The Mystic Ciretes. This week the Herald-Review has been to some trouble to correct our published directory of Grand Rapids i} secret societies. ‘There are fifteen in all, quite a flattering showing for a city of little more than two thousand inhabitants. Ifany of the names of } presiding officers and secretaries are not correct the Herald-Review oftice should be notified at once. Hereafter when changes of officers take place the reéording secretary should be in- stricted to notify the local press. This suggestion is made entirely for | the good of the fraternal orders of the village. Valentine Masquerade. | Hale Lake camp, Royal Neighbors, | ade ball on February 14—Valeatine's day.

In default of one hundred doilars bail the accused was taken to jail. afternoon A Wise Provision. 'The village council acted very wise- ly in putting in an additional pump at the water works. Grand Rapids bas been most fortunate during the past seven years to be able to say that no breakdowo hes occurred. Should the ptup break, as did the electric plunt engine a while ago, no telling what disastrous ts might follow should a fire k out in the village. The new mp was selected by President Rid- c ind ‘Trustee Hepfel from the Fairbanks-Morse company of St. Paul. It is said to be one of the best made ‘and has many modern improvements over the old one now being used. Mr. Alex McLean, a representative of the company, is putting the pump in place and it will be ready to operate by Wednesday of next week. It will have a capacity cf 700 galonsa minute and cost $90. Youthful Nuisance at Village Hall. It has not occurred for some time for the very good reason thit there has been no public entertainment at Village hall to disturb. We refer to the aggregation of youthful would-be toughs who gain admission and con- gregaute in the rear end of the hall whenever au entertainment of any kind is given in this village and make themselves aggravatingly conspicu- ous with talking, laughing and jeer- ing during the pro; It is the plain duty of the ss Lo prevent this intolerable uthorities we mean cil, who have immed- After an en- once Gecun the per- formers cannot vonveniently interfere pct young miscreants or silence them.

A Prompt Insurance Co. About six weeks ago S. J. Cable had the misfortune to accidently in- jure his hand by falling, mention of which was made in the Herald-Re- view at the time. In consequence of the injury he was unable to attend to his duties about the store for some time—but he had an accident policy, and it was an accident that he had it. Only ashort time before J. R. Donohue, who is local agent for the |Standard Life and Accident Insur- ance company of Detroit, Mich., had suceseded in prevailing upon Mr. Cable to take out a policy. Cable finally acceeded more to get rid of the persuasive representative of the com- pany than anythingelse. J. R., how- ever, knew that his company was a good one and that he was doing his friend Cable a favor, and so it proved to be. In due time the claim and proofs were forwarded the company and immediately came back a draft for the full amount claimed — one hundred dollars. Sam says he'll never again be without an accident pulicy and hereafter he’s going to boost for Donohue companies. Accidental Death. L. W. Nelson was accidently killed by a falling tree at one of Sherry’s camps in 60-23 on Wednesday morn- ing. Nelson was not instantly killed and he was able to walk after being injured. He was wrapped up and prepared for the trip toGrand Rapids’ hospital. -When the men who were bringing him to town reached the camp of Captain Hasty they stepped to take Nelson into the house to get warm. When uncovered he was found to be dead. The remains were turned over to Undertaker Luther, who made interment in Itasca cemetery yesterday. The wherabouts of his relatives are nut known. Do Not Drink While Eating. Liquids at meals, if take n too often or too carelessly, are liable to dilute the gastric juic Take no liquid of kind when “food is in the mouth. rke as little as possible till the close’ of ‘the meal. The digestive agents themselves being fluids it is reasonable to suppose that an excess of liquids taken with the food will have a tendency to dilute and thereby weaken the digestive juices.—Febru- ary Ladies’ Home Journal.
