quick and heavy breathing ran to his
side. She was just in time to catch

HANDSOME CHURCH EDIFICE.— The
M. E. church on Jfain street, which
will be reopened OD the 11th of next
month and which has been remodeled
and renovated throughout will be as
pleasant a place for public worship as
any in town. A new spire built
in a modern style and of considerable
height towers heavenward and the new
bell which will be placed in the belfry
this week will shortly send forth peals
of sweet and solemn sounds, calling the
church people to their worship. The
interior of the church presents a very
neat appearance. The old cumbersome
stairway has been changed to an open
and easy entrance, while the gallery in
the rear of the audience chamber has
been removed and the seats in that part
of the room arranged in rows one above
the other. The frescoed ceilings and
walls look tasty and pleasing to the eye
and after the seats are newly painted
and the colored glass windows have
been put in their places, the general ef
fect will be very favorable. Thechurch
is being heated by two large" furnaces.
Tlia basement rooms have also under
gone important changes and will now
ruako splendid Sunday school rooms.
We hope the Christian people of this
place and vicinity will turn out strong
on the day of the rededication and as
sist in wiping out the church debt of
our Jfethodist fsieuds by liberal sub
scriptions. Open your purses.

ded to celebrate their mother's birthday
and theiefore invited the neighbors and
friends to participate in the festivities
of the occasion. Mrs. Zeigler who bad
been absent a few days before was not
aware that there would be a biilbday
paity and was much surprised to have
so many visitoi s call iu one day. She
was however more surprised when she
disooveied what grand provisions hid
been made in her Kitchen for the prep
eration of a sumptuous dinner for all
the invited guests. Mrs. Zeigler was
as liappv and as full of meiry making
as though she was at least ten years
younger. May she live to celebrate
many such birthdays.
On last Sunday while Samuel Ilarter
and family were at church some one
