The Pioneer PaViter
Dr. J. A. Doll, of Ann Ai'boi", expects
to build a fine new. house tho coming
summer.
Undertaker Martin, at Ann Arbor,

The marshal at Tecumseh has issued
an order forbidding anyone throwing
coal ashes in the street.
Wat- with England, the Hillsdale
Standard says is sure. We will face
the music however when it comes.
The Clinton Local says there will be
upwards of fifty dwellings put np this
summer. If he is correct, Clinton certainly is booming.
G. W. Hopkins, the late editor of the
Stockbridge Tidings, now of the Perry
World, has taken a partner, it being-
Miss Floy Haire, of Stockbridge.
The Nichols property furnished a
very desirable suburban residence until
the injunction stopped tho motor; now
it is good farm property and uothing
more.—Ypsilantian.
Rubbish caused from tho recent fire
of the McClure & Co.'s planing mills
at Tecumseh, is being cleared away
and preparation to rebuild early in the
spring the order of business.
Burglars   operated   extensively   in
Entering the Hew Year.
The past is valuable only for the
lessons it can teach: the present for its
opportunities; the future for its possibilities, writes Edward W. Bok in the
January Ladies' Home Journal. Whatever the past year may have meant to
you make it dead history. But let the
New Year be a living issue. With a
big fresh sponge, dipped with the clear
water of forgiveness, wipe clean the
slate of your heart. Enter the year
with a kind thought for every one.
You need not kiss the hand that smote
you, butgrasp it in cordialgood feeling,
and let the electricity of your own resolves find its connecting current—
which very often exists where we think
it not. Aa ill-natured thought often
makes us bluer than the person to whom
it is directed. A happy tniud is an
elixir, mid as are the spirits of the wife
in the home, so will be those of the
husband, who in turn will carry them
into the outer world. Domestic happiness oftencolorscommercial prosperity.
The hearthstone is the corner of the
ooun ting-room. Au unhappy wife makes
a bine merchant. As we men live at
home, so we work in the outer world.
A Cat Party Among the Howe Children
and their Friends.
The bowling-alley was also used for
other sports.. It was here that Flossy
gave a grand party for  "Cotchy'' her
Adrian township one night last week, j precious Maltese cat.   All the cat-own-
entering a number of farm residences
and takiug whatever money and valuables they could find. They were overheard in two or three places and frightened away.—Tecumseh News.
A few arrows were shot from the M.

This is a little story of how tobacco
destroyed a home, says the Buffalo
Exx>ress. Ti any of the anti-tobacco
moralists can find an illustration in it,
they are welcome to it:
Before James Whitcomb married he
■was an enthusiastic smoker. He
smoked regularly, btit not immoderately, believed it did him good, and
recommended all his friends to try it.
He always kept the choicest cigars
and an assortment of artistic pipes
AVhich. was the envy of all his friends.
But one day he fell in love "with a.
pretty,rather self-willed young woman
and married her. She belonged to
several grades of temperance and other
social-reform societies and had some
high notions about smoking. She said
it was an expensive habit; worse than
that, it was -1 filthy habit; worse still,
it was a wicked habit. Men smoked
in saloons and in such sinful places.
It was in reason that anything which
was done in a saloon must he inspired
by Satan. So she told poor James
he must promise that he would give
up smoking, and he was so much in
love that he said he would.
He gave away Ms pipes and for six
months after his wedding he never
touched the weed. It came hard, especially as he couldn't agree with, his
■wife's ideas as to the sinfulness of the
habit. He didn't much care if it was
wicked, but then he had given his
word. Honeymoon swear-oils, however, don't often outlast the honeymoon. One day an old friend pressed
oue of his favorite brands of cigars on
Mm. He vainly explained that he had
promised Ms wife to reform. His
friend laughed at him. "You should
[ oducate your wife to like smoke," he
said, "That's the way I did. I sit
down in my parlor every evening now
and have a nice smoke." That was a
tempting picture to James. He wished
he could do it. He determined to try.
So he began smoking again. But his
wife was of a different stamp from Ms
friend's wife. She scolded, and wept,
and upbraided Mm for breaking his
promise. He swore off again, but tMs
time it only lasted a week. He began
.rtnoking on, the sly. His wife caught
him at it, of course. At least if he
must be a slave to such a vile habit he
should not smoke in the house and
scent her niee furniture. James regarded this as a tacit permission to
smoke out of the house. Before long
he stayed out of the house, as much as
possible. At first he would hurry
away after dinner so as to enjoy his
smoke. Then he began to stop going
home to dinner at all. It was so
much "More pleasant to sit in a restau- |
rasit "ivhere he could smoke when he *
was through eating. His wife scolded
more and became more devoted to her
anti-tobacco societies. She wished she
had never married. So did he. Sharp
words began to pass between them.
J:\ims became defiant and actually |
began lighting his eijrars iivthe house
when \w put" on his' overcoat. That
was ion much. His wife took the baby
and went konie'to her mother. James
sold his he use and furniture and went
to South Dakota, where he is now try- j
ing to get a divorce, I
That'was hew tobacco broke ixp the;
home, and j et there are seme of
Jame-v friends who still say that, there
i>- oorhing wrong in smoking and that
|£ Ms wife had been sensible and had
let Mm smoke at home they might
have lived together happily all their
lives: that it was her crankiness, not
his habit, whieb. caused the trouble.
