Farmer Jackson of Beaver County missed
three of bis sheep the night before Christ
mag, and on Friday last they were discov
ered in a hollow,where the snow had drift
ed to a depth of 20 feet.
Aj hole was shoveled into the drift, and
the sheep were found there safe and sound,
after their long fast. The strangest thing
of the whole affair was that they had not
a particle of wool on their backs. They
nad also eaten such u quantity of snow,
which together with the heat from tbeir
bodies, made a veritable chamber, or cave.
The cave was twenty feet in circumference
by five feet bigb. At last reports the an
imals were all doing well, though they
seem to be things of great interest to the
other sheep ,which recognize their fellows,
but are unable, apparently, to account for
the entire absence of wool.

Dr. Willits, Next Thursday.
Dr. A. A. Willits, the only lecturer in
the country the people of Butler will never
tire of, will appear before us again, on next
Thursday evening, the 29th inst., in the
Court-room.
lie now has nine lectures, and the one
selected by the committee for our enter
tainment that evening is entitled "The
Model Wife, a portrait from the olden
time." Of this lecture Rev. Talmage wrote
as follows:
"Bis subject, 'The Model Wife,' was
treated with a vividness that no one could
wield who had not a living illustra
tion in bis own borne. His celebrated lec
ture, entitled "Sunshine,' may have in it
more uproarious fun; but we commend this
for its surpassing beauty, whilo at the
same time it is fully enough facetious for
anyone not endowed with wuistcoat super
naturally strong. Without any of the cant
or conventionalities, or nasal twang, with
which many of our public sneakers are
afflicted, he discoursed in a style that was
logical without being dry, poetic without
being insipid, humorous without being
silly, bold without being rash, pure with
out being finical. We all came away filled
with good humor, and a resolution more
highly to appreciate our homes. Indeed,
it is a great (leal better to jolt down moral
reflections wilh a good laugh than to take
them in didactic potions. Long live Dr.
Willits, the entertaining lecturer and the
genial man!"
To the Farmers of Butler and
Vicinity.
I now have my new roller flour
mill completed and in full operation,

Regarding Fine Clothes.
•
As a new comer requesting a share of the pat
ronage of this town and vicinity in my line, it
befits me to make a few statements. I make a
specialty of the higher grades of work; I keep
in stock the finest quality of goods; I recognize
the fact that a good fitting suit from my house
is it's best advertisement, while a misfit con
demns the cutter and tailor. I shall endeavor
to send out the best fitting clothes to be found.
I do all my own cutting.
o—o
The prices will be as low as can be made com
patible with the quality of goods I shall adhere
to. A full line of the latest and most stylish
goods in stock. Call and see me before placing
any orders.
