On Friday last, Frederick l'l bier was

From oxperienco many old citizens of
this county have a mild superstition
that a newspaper subscription cannot bo
stopped. Tho process is simple. Pay
up what you owe, if nnything, and then
refuse to tako it from tlio oillce. A
newspaper cannot bo forced on a man
any more than other articles of merchan
dise. AAitoN ANDiiKwa, of Mifflin met
with an accident on Thursday last,
which resulted in tlio infliction of t-cr-iotis
though not dangerous Injuries. Uo

tho animal beeamo frightened nnd ran
awav. tho wagon passing over Mr. An
drews bruisinir him severely. We learn
that tills Is tho eanio horso which was
driven iy Andrew Freas, when ho met

It is cheering to know that thero is a

hailed with pleasure. Loeatcd as they
wero in tho very centro of trado it was
imposslblo to conceal them from tho
view of .visitors to tho town nnd doubt
less gavo them an unfavorable Idea as
to tno enterprise oi our people.

Tho dcslro to laugh Is, at times, irro-
slstlblo, and frequently occurs on most
Inopportuno occasions, bringing confu
sion to tho uiifoitunato person who
finds It Imposslblo to control his rhlblcs.
If thero bo ono thing inoro than another
calculated to produco merriment, It is
tho eight of n fellow crcnturo vainly
struggling to nvold n fall upon the ico.
tow peoplo can resist tho temptation
to laugh even if tho vK mboti dear
friend or relntlvu. Neither ago nor sox
affect tho looker on ; tho bilsk tuniblo
of youth and the moro deliberate down
fall of ago nllko create n smile. Thero
nro moiiy kinds of falls, ranging from
tho unresisted lo the desperately op
posed. Cuts nnd bruises seldom rtsult
from tho ilrst, but very frequently do
from tho latter. What can be inoro
ludicrous than n caso of this kind?
Wntcii this man walking briskly along
with n grim look on ids faco and stub
bornness imprinted on overy feature.
Ho is ono of tlio sort which novcr goes
down without n struggle. Ho steps on
tho treacherous Ico; his foot sllp3 j by
a tremendous effort ho recovers him
telfj his other foot slips, and now
begins tho struggle j first his head gots
dowu to his knees and his legs begin
to stretch wide apart; ho regnips n
nearly upright position, waves his arms
wildly in tho air llkonballetgirl, drops
his hat, gots his head down between
his shoulder blades, spins half around,
waves Ills ttrms ugaiu moro violently
thnn beforo and falls with a crash, with
myriads of stars dancing bcfoio his eyes
and with n general sensoof lmvlnggono
to pieces. Ho picks up hi3 hat, glares
savagely at tho Ico, mutters to himself
a prayer probably and stalks nway.
The chances aro that ho wld get half n
dozen such hoists beforo ho finishes tlio
day. We defy any ono to keep from
mirth on such an occasion. Ho would
sot a funeral procession in a roar.
Tlio fact of tho matter is, that if you
find yourself falling you should let
yourself go. You will thereby eavo
any amount of fantastic nnd absurd
gymnastics anil probably somo brnlsc3.
