We congratu late the Reed brothers on their ability to hold the old friends of the paper, as it is an evidence that tho paper itself keeps pace with the progress of events. —Two young men, out berrying, had a strange experience, Tuesday afternoon. They filled their pails with blackberries, but just as they were starting for bomo, one of them tripped aud fell headlong into a bush containing a yellow jackets nest. The insects swarmed around him and ho received several stings, but he fought them with his coat and then putting it over his bead managed to secure the most of his berries. Tho other young man helped do the fighting ami was also stnng. Their frieuds did not recognize them when they arrived at their homes. —The proprietor of a New York sport ing paper lately offered a prize of SSOOO for any one who could beat the best timo ever made by a man running—one mile in 4 minutes and l'J seconds, and a friend of policeman Peter Slater of Millerstowu wrote the paper an account of I'eter of which the following is an extract. "I'eter Slater, who is at the head of tho police force of Millorstown, is now 08 years of age aud stands 5 feet 11 inches in his shoes. He has always been something of an athlete, and when but 22 years of age he ran a mile in three minutes. Chief Slater now resides al liaruhart's Mills, Pa., aud notwithstanding his years is still halo and hearty. lie clasms to be double-jointed in the knees and wrists, and writes that when iu his 23d year ho could hold his breath 1} minutes by the town clock. —lt is saiil that fourth-class Postmasters, many of whom have been merchants, have been brought up with a round turn by the Postmaster-General, who has ordered that hereafter their salary will depend upon the number of letters actually mailed, and not upon tin* number of stamps sold. A prac tice with many of them has been to arrange with oily merchants to take stamps in pay ment lor goods, the result of which was u large increase of sales of stamps ill country offices and a corresponding falling off iu the large cities. Now they are compelled lo count the letters, and their salaries are made to depend upon llio actual business of their respective offices, aud not upon the sale of stamps as formerly. This change of the rules lias naturally caused a great amount of disgust, aud is likely to render the quest for fourth class Post masterships much less eager than formerly. Andy Root of Petrolia wont for a drive behind his new last horso last Friday evening; on the way he saw Mrs. Kllen Con tiers, a New Castle woman who has cooked in several of our hotels, ami asked her to accompany him. Sbo did so and they hail a pleasant drive out tho road leading to Prospect, but ou their way home, ami while coining down the bill, the horse became unmanageable aud started off at a 2:20 gait. Andy jumped nut and escaped with but slight injuries; the wo man also jumped but Iter head struck some thing that ripped the scalp from just above her eyes to the top of her head. She was carried into a neighboring house, while yet unconscious, and physicians were sent for and they worked for two hours getting scalp back iu its place and sewing it on. It w.is thought that uicht thai sbo would die, but she recuperated, is doing well aud is now lying at one of our hotels. Afl.or Hie accident the horse kept right on at full speed till be reached the centre of tho town, and the buggy was not broken. Had the occupants remained iu it they would not have been hurt Musi Publish Your Accounts. There are townships in this vicinity that are annually violating the law by not hav ing a report of their finances published, and if the matter were brought before tho Slate School Authorities Ibe annual school appropriation would be discontinued. Tho reason for not publishing the report i peuuriou.uicsi on the part of a few.— l'hoentx. The Merchants Picnic.

McN AIR, Sec'y. _ A New Dog Law.

When, however at the end of any current year there is a surplus of SIOO in tho sheep fund it shall bo turned over to the school directors for tho school fund. Curious Advertisements. Somebody now in Ireland, probably Prof. Muckcy, has sunt us a copy of daily papers published iu Dubliu, date of July 15, from which wo take tho following curi ously worded advertisements: STROXII, bumble Girl wanted, able to wash well and do general housework; must bo an early riser and well recommeuded; wages it, all found.

If a strong, humble girl, who will get up early and do all the work, including the washing, can only earn from S2O to S3O a year in Ireland, it's no wonder they flock to Auiorica.

In the window of the Iliehl Bros.' store is a marvelous piece of automatic work ' mauship, the work of Mr. F. Stark, deceas ed. It is a mill, and occupies a space of about three feet by two. It is constructed so as to be run by any kind of power. The mill wheel turns rouud, and we see a wo -1 man ironing, a woman spinning, one grind ing coffee, another churning, two men grindiug on a grindstone, one sawing wood, another chopping wood, a clown turning on a pole, processions go by, doves on the roof pecking at the shingles, chickens and turkeys eating their morning meal, and other curious things. Mr. Stark formerly worked iu town, and made this iu his lei sure moments. He was a brother-in-law of Mr. Knoble, and of Mrs. K. Biehl, de , ceased. It is well worth while to stop at the store and see how the mill works.— [• Kittauning Press. The Markets. BUTLER MARKETS.

Many years ago when we, along with our fellow citizens, were paying sls*) to $250 for a buggy, we conceived the idea that less tdian SIOO ought to buy a buggy good enough for almost any man. We set about investigating the matter —went to the largest manufactories in the l". S. and made a contract for a full car-load to be made to our order. We had the cash iu our pocket, and the result was that the buggies were made and shipped to ns. Otu neighbors (we lived in Prospect, this county, then) said we made a mistake — that we could not sell them—and we con fess when we did see them all set up in a row we felt a little as though we had an elephant on our hands in a dry summer. Hnt we had good buggies, bought low for cash, and of course we could sell low. It was the first time in the history of liutler county that a good buggy could be bought for less than SIOO. In thirty dayr.we were out of buggies and another carload on the way. Everybody wanted one of our buggies— the rich man saw they were good enough for him to ride in and the poor man for the first time in his life rejoiced in being able to own a buggy. Just so it went; our bus iness grew, neighbor told neighbor; it spread all over this State and into other States until we found it impossible to car ry on our large business without good ship ping facilities. We selected Butler as the place last November. We purchased the old manufacturing establishment formerly conducted by 0. C. Roessiug <fc Son. on Cunningham street, where we have located permanently, and liutler can boast to-day of having largest wholesale and retail carriage dealers in the State. We keep in stock everything in the Car riage, Wagon, Cart "Harness and Kobe line. We have top buggies from S4O up to the very finest hand made work. Carts, sl2 up: harness, $6 to the very best hand made harness to be tound anywhere, Ac. Our success in business we attribute to our rules first adopted, Never ask exhorbitaut prices. Sever misrepresent. Thus we have won the good will and confidence of every customer. We say with pride that we have sold hundreds of buggies on time and never had a man refuse to pay his note on ac count of the article not being as represent ed. This is remarkable. 3onsidering our nine years'business. We have plenty of money; never sell a note. We discount every bill, pay no rent; we give our cus tomers the benefit of all this, and are close cash purchasers. Our large experience gives us a knowledge of the business that can be acquired in no other way. Come down and see us whether you want to buy or not; it is only a little walk down from Main street and it will pay you well. The members of the company are S. B. Martin court and J. M. Leighner.
