Here is a floating paragraph that

ble to send them, and iiTxeial in
stances there are children" none of
whom can read and write. Some of
these youths have only a few years yet

Our hay buyers say that they

What might have proved a very
costly fire was happily averted by i

one on the outside, who quickly gave
the alarm. Going to the room it was
discovered that the bed was already
almost consumed, and in a very short

the match, with which he had lit the
lamp, back of him onto the bed, where
it bad smouihered some time before

Edwio M. Riddle, wbo has been

The Hon. Will Smith, who is just

to do like wis. Here is one instance;
"This is the buutiug season, when the
bear, the deer, tbe pheasant and tbe
long eared rabbit have to bustle to
keep their souls and bodies from being
divorced by a rifle ball or a charge ot
shot. But the person whose business
it is to go huutiog for trouble has all
seasons for his owu. You cau make
yourself as miserable as you please, as
well as those about you, by anticipa
ting trouble and imagining iinpeudiug
calamaties. With all your hunting,
don't go .hunting for trouble. Very
frequently what you consider a calaui
ity is a blessing in disguise, and what
you would regard as a blessing is just
as likely as out to prove a prolific
source of woe. Embrace all oppor
tunities to be joyous. Rouse up a
brave spirit, aud keep your liver io

reduction of 33J per ceut. has been
made. Iu the bills sent out for De

fore been using the fuel under annual
contract rates the reduction thus made
was apparent and satisfactory ; but lo
tlmse who had been under the contract
rates the reduction did not figure out
en well, in consequence there was con
siderable mild kicking. However, as
the matter now stands every individ

who wish can avail themselves of the
cheaper plan by signing yearly con
