Wo will be frank and tell you fill about it: While engaged in attending to nobody's business but our own, an agent for a type foundry came in and asked if he could get an order for some type. The editor immediately asked n.q if any type was needed—a thing that has not occurred before to the recollection of the oldest in habitant—, and we meekly responded we would like some small pica, " 'Tis order ed," said His Royal Highness, and in the same breath he asked "what elseT" We, getting a little bolder said we would ap preciate a now font of head letter, be said " 'tis done," wo stood this all right, but when he asked "what next?" It took our breath away but when we came to we were more bold than before, and asked for five lonts of fine job type (expecting to get killed for asking though), but, the same old reply "So be it," caused us to reflect and see if we had noticed a screw loose in tbe editors "make up" that morning, but he appeared as solid as "pi," and he con tinued "anything elset" and we ordered type and labor-saving material enough to make the CITIZEN office the beat equipped job office in Butler county (bring on your jobs). When we recovered, three hours later, we learned—not through the editor —that the cause of all this unheard of ex travagance was the arrival at the editor's house of what will (by and by) be as sistant editor. In other word*: its a boy. Christmas Presents. Youog man,U-t us help you to Bolve the all important question, What shall I boy her for a Christmas gift?

It is granted to but few women to be part of such an eventful life as has been that of the wife of Henry Ward Beecher. Xo man of this century had snch a busy life.filled with .so many honors and achieve ments; and t<> vi.-w such a career through the eve.s of hi- life-long companion is a pleasure rarely given to a public. Mr. Beecher was a lover of the domestic fire side. "My home is my temple," he once said, and in that home he gathered round him wh&t his nature loved best: birds, flowers, and dainty bits of china and costly gems. If he was great in public life, Mr. I teacher was greater in his home-life. In the one capacity he gave himself to public; in the other he reserved himself for his family. In this latter light lie will be viewed by his widow in a notable series of reminiscent papers in Tin Lmliis' IIHIIK Journal, of Philadelphia, during 1891. The articles will cover the entire period of their marriage from their first year of married lite, when the couple lived ou S3OO for twelvemonths, until the closing of Mr. Botcher's great career. Airs. Beecher will tell of "Mr. Beecher as I Knew Him," and thousands will gladly listen to her interest ing story. We Pay Salary and expenses to LI V K AdRXTS, men or women. Xo drones wanted.
