( * "'Weeks ago last .Sunday night Mr.
• *.i McNess, of Hebron, came in
- work too tired to go for his cows,
■ ' were running in the woods near
' his children, a girl about
• <tis old aiid a boy about five, went
si' iaetu ' not returning after
t. . l IH *' two y°ng women .a daugh-
,'o Ic - Seß5 k and a friend who
i'l'iug with ber. started to bunt'
up the little ones. Darkness came on
and at last it became evident that all
four were h>st. The neighbors were
alarmed, a search started, and about
one o'clock the children were found.
The little girl had tied her apron
around the ltoy and placing him le
--tween herself and the dog that was
with them bad bravely prepared to
spend tlie night. The girls were dis
covered alnnit eleven o'clock and put
into a path leading to the house, and
they followed it safely out.
Good.
A. X. C., in the Free Press, on the
subject of gardens, writes a really good
thing:
There's a world of satisfaction in
making a garden yourself, that is, if
you're not lazy, and if you are you
i don't deserve to have any garden at all.
Ever since we took to gardening we've
had a passion that way. We don't
want any of your natural soils, but just
the hardest, coldest, most forbidding
and vexatious SJM t that can lie picked
out, on which to make our garden. It
does us good to pick up the stones, pul
| cerise the soil, mix lime, and salt, and
i finely comtmsted manures, and draw
sand to mix with the clay, and, in short,
make a garden-spot out of a very desert.
It seems as though this done, we bad
accomplished something: and tluit. it
somehow seems to us. was what i?ople
were made for. There is money in tiie
garden.
Decorate tlie School Room.
We were talking with a little girl the
other day who attends a school a few
miles from this place, and she got al
most into ecstasies over the way their
teacher had decorated the school room
with flowers and foliage Over the win
dows. around the blackboard, on the
walls; wreaths around the stove-pipe,
I wits of flowers on the stove, on tlie ta
ble, on the desk —flowers and wreaths
wherever they could be placed. We
did not see the school, but we will ven
ture the assertion that it was far more
orderly and accomplished far more than
it would if the wall and desks and stove
and table bad been left bare.
Children love flowers and are suscep
tible to their subtle influence, and if
I even* teacher would recognize this fact
and take the pains to make their school
rooms lieautiful with them th<*y would
find themselves richly repaid in the im
provement it wot.ld occasion in their
scholars.
DfrttraUon !>>■
Was very generally observed around the
country, judging from the accounts in
i tl;e papers.
Come ILirl;.
Benson C. Rude, a prominent lawyer
of Wellsville. X. V., who went into the
Liberal movement in politics last year
and laltortd earnestly for the success of
that cause, has written a letter lately to
George Ilowe, of the Y\ ellsvhio 'JHuis
in answer to one from that gentleman
inquiring alnnit his present political
standing, ill which he admits tlie fail
ure of the effort to I'm in a new party,
declares t: at fit* cannot go over to the
Democratic party and closes by stating
that the only alternative left him is to
lalnir with and for the Republican par
ty, which lie proposes doing so long as
it maintains its present principles and
jKisition.
C'herrj x iltr.
A geuth man from one of the eastern
cities has purchased the pitqierty at
C'herryx ille. oil the Kettle Cheek road,
; and is aliout putting up a large and
commodious hotel esiH-cially adapted
for summer lniaiders who want to rus
ticate in the w.ioiL. We arc informed
that the proprietor also contemplates
erecting a large saw mill and several
houst s suitable for private families. If
these improvements are made, the place
will soon become one of the most popu
lar resorts in this region.
