LOCAL AND GENERAL
The fas hions arc changing—improving, no
doubt.—
A time for which women have waited;
Anil the sensible female will shortly he

With the skirt of her dress bifurcated.
—May id will be our next Arbor Bay.

—A badly constructed road and a cheap
watch are very much alike. It will co.>t
more to keep either in repair thau a well

is good for anything. Economy consists
in doing any work properly at first.
—An astonishing feat recently accom

photograph of a cannon ball leaving—
mouth of a t hip's gun. Next thing some
one will attempt, to take an instantaneous

neighbor. When that i.i accomplished
science will have reached its limit.
—A < i lade Hun Correspondent says that
n probably fatal accident on the big trestle

by a rig builder named Mays, who, while
walking over tho trestle noticed a railroad

of the finest grades of wall papers and in
the medium prices—2o cents np—his stock
is as large and complete as ever brought
to Butler. He has all those dainty bits
which no room can be furnished without,
such as engravings, screens and easels,
figures, etc., and a visit to his Jefferson
street otore will imply pay you in pleas
ure and iuonc'3' saved.
—Here is an innocent diversion that may
afford considerable amusement an.l at the
same time is a good teot of one's memory:
On a table are placed forty different a»ti
des and the guests are only permitted to
see tlieni during a walk twice around tho
table, then they must go into another
room anil write down the names of all the
articles thoy can remember. At one re
cently held ono lady remembered thirty
one of the articles, and another could re
member only eight. It is a healthful men
tal exercise to practice at a secial gather
in^.
It is easy enough to be pleasant,
When life flows on like a aong,
But "he man worth while i 3 (he one who
will smile
When everything goes dead wrong,
For the test of the heart is trouble,
And it always comes with the years.
And the smile that is worth tho praises of
earth
Is the entile that shines through tear..
