Milán can be congratulated upon having such an enterprise. CHELSEA STANDARD. The burned district is to be rebuilt.

After five years in the milk business Geo. Marshall has deeided to retire. He has sold out to A. N. Hodgeman. who is now supplying the customers. SALIXF. OBSERVER. Willie Fuoss went to Ann Arbor yesterday, where he expects to have his neck operated upon. Many doubtless of late have noticed the large swelling he has been wearing on his throat and neck. The auction of E. Helber last Friday was well attended. We feel safe in saying that there were more people than have been seen at any auction in the county for years. CHELSEA HERALD.

He has purchased nearly twenty horees for persons about the state so iar this season. At the St.Patrick'a Day banquet Fr. Goldrick of Northfield, in a syle all his own, proved himself a comedian of no mean rank.

He was again encored, giving one stanza of "Wearing o' the Green. !' MANCHESTER ENTERPRISE. J. H. Kingsley is nursing a wounded thumb. Like many foolish men, he arose to build the fire, and in cutting kindling he neglected to take his hand away from the block and the hatchet clipped off a portion of his thumb. Following upon the heel of his election as president of the vülage, this is hard luck. Eighteen stars, 17 of the first magnitude, that is to say, females, went to Tecumseh to attecd a meeting of the star chapter there last Thursday evening.

The "work" was nicely done and the congratulations were hearty. YPS1LANTI COMMERCIAL. There is a boy in Romulus, who has, besides his father and mother, two grandfathers, two grandmothers, two great-grandfathers and three greatgrandmothers - and the whole twelve reside in that township. The happy lot of a boy with a grandmother has often been commented upon : but who can measure the beatitude of a boy with two grandmothers and three greatgrandmothers! Our people learn witli regret that H. M. lióse has tendered his resignation as manager of the Keeley Institute, to take effect May 1. At that time he expects to go to Grand Kapids to engage in the insurance business. We shall be very sorry indeed to part with him. The institute is enjoying an increased patronage, and the business is better now than it has been for months past.
