William Badger goes in town every morning at half past seven to his office. Today Mr. Ballard is feeling no better of his cold, so Adele sent for Dr. who lives at Lake Forest, and he says it is his old Malaria and he must stay in the house. Miss Bonnie, and Belle Houston both of Louisville, Ky. will arrive here the last of the week to visit Mrs. Blanch? Ballard for awhile.

Mrs. Shrene talks of giving up her visit to Mrs. Hurrey, and Mrs. Henry this time as the weather is so bitter cold, and Mrs. Ballard wont listen to her going for at least a week.
