Let me compliment you on the neat and stylish appearance of the JOURNAL in its new dress. I will send yon a dollar soon to renew, please keep on sending it. I read with interest the account of the dedication of the new Lutheran church at Mjllheim. I am really glad you succeeded so well in so good a cause, you know next to a Methodist, I am a Lutheran. We just closed a protracted meeting at the M. E. church, the lesult was 25 Conversions,2o united with the M. E. Church. Well it really feels like as winter was over. The weather has been delightful for a few days and the mud is drying up, I am glad I don't have to move. We have had rather a pleasant winter and excellent good health in this part of the country. I wish now to tell you a wonderful story about a hog that lived without food for 0 months, Tanner out done in the matter of fasting. Whose hog can beat it ? About the 4th of September last Mr. Geo. Burr, proprietor of the Burrwood and State Experimental farms,miles north of Buibank, O, lost a valuable Berkshire sow. He ad vertised his loss extensively, but never heard anything from the anim il until last Friday March 21. While removing the bottom of a straw stack, made iu September last he found the pig alive. The pig is nothing but skin and bones, and has been visited by a large num ber of the discovery. The pig had been without food or water for over six months. This is no fish story, but solid facts. The pig is most de void of hair, but will survive and re cover. Politics is warming up a little in O hio. The Republicans* first choice fn* President and Vice President in these parts jire Blaine and Lincoln. The Democrats go in for Payne. I think he would make a very oily candidate. But I must stop. V ery truly yours G. W. IIOLLOWAY. PENN HALL SHAVINGS. The latest—a street lamp in front of Fisher's store. Chas. Smith is home on a visit to his wife.

Freddy is one of your jelly fel lows and we are always glad to have him about. Mr. Yony Condo who had the mis fortune to cut his foot is able to be a* bout again. Humor has it that, Jack Plane and the News Boy are one. llow is it—who can tell ? If the News Boy wishes to make known the whereabouts of Jack Plane, he is at perfect liberty to do so. We try to hoe our own row. The entertainment given by the scholars of the Spring Mills academy on Friday evening was a grand success. The house was crowded and the pre formances splendid. JACK PLANE. WOODWARD CHIPS. 1 —— C. W. Ilosterman is hauling stone for the foundation of his new house. James Return* will have his new home under roof in a few days. Hurry up, Jim. Sadie Walter has returned from a week's visit up the country. F. (). Ilosterman of the Farmers' stoiehas entered the services of Janny & Andrews as commercial traveler. Success to you. The roof of the Saint Elmo caught lire last week, which caused quite an ex citement. The damage done was most ly caused by the water which was being poured on. Charley keep your chim mey clean and save the community a scarce. The string band at this place has no teacher yet. What is going to become of all the violins, boys ?

The house was crowded and some of the s peakera will some day make great ora tors. I. B. Jamison had the misfortune to fall off the Ilorse and break a rib. Our schools closed last week. Now you can find the average boy lounging around the stores. We are sorry to write the fact that 3/iss Guise's scholars serenaded her on the last day while returning home,with tin cans, pans, bells &c. This shows tlie respect between teacher and pupil. Shame boys, nothing manly in such ac tions. Dr. Diuiilees Liniment prepared by Shook Bro's is one of the best medi cines of the kind in the mark et. It 1 as done more to alleviate the pain for Jfrs. Harriet Condo than all others. Ou Saturday moining as the train came in Mr. John Sweeiwood made a very uartow escape with his life at the iron bridge ciossing. The train came along in two sections and when the engine had passed by Mr. S. supposed that was all and started to cross, when the baliuce of the train struck his horse,thro wing horse, buggy and man almost 20 feet away. The horse was killed almost i nstautly,buggy smashed up and Mr. S. being a very old man (S3 years old) was thrown on the pile of debris, had two ribs broken and was generally bruised up. Has been in bed ever since. Now why is it that the train can't come as it should. On Sunday the Union S. S. School e lected the following officers : Peter Wilson, Superintendent ; J. S. Krape, E.
