Out along the publio road leading to
Tylersburg, about a mile and a half
northwest of that village, Is located the
goat farm of Dr. J. E. Beck of Marien
ville. Tbe enclosure covers several hun
dred acres, and much of tbe land is cov
ered with a thick growth of pine, hem
lock and other saplings, through which
courses a pretty stream of pure water,
making a cool retreat for tbe herd in hot
weather and tbe whole furnishing an
ideal home or rompiug ground for tbe
hundred or more sleek-looking little
anlmalB there corralled. Tbe goats are of
the Angora variety, and while the start
ing of this industry was largely in tbe
nature of an experiment, or perhaps a fad,
it seems to be flourishing so well that if
be isn't mighty careful it will turn out a
money-maker for the Doctor, If tbe goats
happen to be congregated near tbe road,
as tbey were a few days ago while the
writer was driving by, the sight is one of
unusual interest and pleasure.
One of the very worst habits to ac
quire if we care fur our own happiness
and the happiness of others Is tbe babit
of contradiction. And unlortunately it
comes easily, often unknowingly, and at
tains its growth before we are fully aware
of the existence ol the evil thing we bave
nurtured. Its beginning can often be
traced to the early days In tbe life of tbe
first baby, when solicitude for tbe child
or possibly lor tbe mother leads the
man to make a suggestion that is lightly
brushed aside with perhaps a remark that
"men don't understand such things."
Only a little ripple that passes In a second
and apparently leaves no trace that It
ever was, but there has been planted a
seed which, unless carefully watched,
produces a plant that embitters tbe whole
domestic life. Woman bas no monopoly
ot this bablt. It Is as often seen and lust
as bad In a man. Continual watchful
ness over the unruly tongue is the only
safeguard, the only remedy, the ouly
cure. The Ladles World for July,

The Musical Club's Open Meeting-.
One of tbe prettiest entertainments that
a Tionesta audience bas had tbe pleasure
of attending in many a day was given by
tbe Musical Club last Friday evening in
the lecture room of tbe Presbyterian
church, when this organization of accom
plished musicians held an open meeting
which closed tbeir program for tbe past
year. Tbe Club had arranged a seating
capacity of one hundred, and we believe
there were no vacant chairs during tbe
rendering of tbe well arranged program,
which was as follows :

Throughout the music was of a classic
al order, as was also the rendering of the
same, every number receiving a full
meed ol applause by tbe appreciative and
delighted audience. Mrs. Cora Felt,
whose rendition of White's "Spring bas
Come" displayed her strong rich voice to
excellent advantage, was obliged to re
spond to an encore. The Instru nenlal
duets and solos by Miss June Herman,
Mrs. James D. Davis, MUses Klya and
Olive Lanson, and Miss Editb Hopkins,
were of a character that must bave pleased
tbe most critical ear, and with wbicb even
the higher critics would bave been de
lighted. The choruses by the club mem
bers were faultlessly rendered and fairly
captivated tbe audience, while Prof. Gill's
contributions were of the usual sweet
ness and melody. One feature that was
not on tbe regular program, but was giv
en as a pleasing surprise to the sudience,
was tbe whistling of Mrs. Benjamin
Kelly of Chicago. Mrs. Kelly was not
permitted to escape with one selection,
but was promptly recalled, and she fairly
electrified her bearers with another selec
tion, and demonstrated with consummate
skill what could be accomplished In this
new musical art. A voluntary silver of
fering netted the Endeavor Ssciety a neat
sum for tbeir treasury.
At tbe conclusion of tbe program the
audience was Invited to remain for a
short social session, during which the
Club served a refreshing treat in the
nature of orange frappe and waters. Tbe
entertainment was a royal success in
every way, and the appreciative audience
enjoyed every minute of tbe time.
