lifelong remorse.

A curious quality of mnskmelons
is that tb< y taint everything else in the
refrigerator, but they can be cooled by
halving and then pla< ing some chips of
ice on the irrude The first consign
ment of the Anne Arundell Co., Md.
melons reached our grocers last Satur
day. They are large, solid, sweet and
finely flavored. They sold readily here
at -0 cent each, and it would be well
for our farmers and gardeners to secure
some seed and endeavor to produce
them.
A new fakir is abroad in the rural
regions. He drives through the coun
try and sells soap at five dollars a box,
which sum includes the price of forty
yards of qprpet, selected frr rn samples
which lie has in his wagon. He takes
the five dollars, leaves the liox of soap,
promises to deliver the carpet of the se
lected sample within a week, drives
away. The soap is worth probably fifty
cents. It stays with the purchaser.
The carpet is worth probably fifteen
dollars, but it stays with the fakir and
has not been delivered toa single victim.
During the hot weather of the past
three weeks our ice men have furnished
the people of Bntler with an abundance
of excellent ice, for which we should all
lie thankful. Did you ever hear the
story of Ihe jolly party on board ship
when the ice ran out. Well, they had
been having their punch every day and
they missed the ice sadly, IJut they
heard that a Jew on the ship had some,
and coaxed a little from him. Next
day the same, and next day the same —
but on the fourth day the Jew shook his
bead saying, I cannot give you any
more ice. If I do. my brother, he not
keep"
That music is charmiug is shown by
the large crowds that assemble on the
Diamond to hear the band concerts.
The Germania makes good music, and
thousands of people stand for hours to
hear it. The floor of the new Band
stand is raised two inches, and the ceil
ing is lowered four inches in the cen
tre*, and the two combine to make a
sounding-box that increan- the volume
and force of the music Some evening
of n ,xt week the Germania Orchestra
will give ii concert, during which the
hat will be passed around for nickels
and dimes with which to pay off the
SIOO yet due the contractor for the
stand.
A farmer over in Wisconsin says he
has adopted a plan of advertising in his
home papers which has saved him much
valuable time and brought handsome re
turn for the money invested. He says:
"When I am ready to sell my stuff 1 in
sert a little advertisement in the local
paper telling what I have to sell and, if
live stock, how many bead of each and
when they will be ready to ship, and the
result has lieeu that the buyers are right
after me, either personally or by mail,
and naturally I always get the highest
price. If I want to buy a cow or a steer,
a hor eor a dozen of each, I insert a
little advcrtiseinent that costs mayls- 50
cents and instead of traveling over the
country inquiring of my nelgbors who
has this or that for sale, the home news
paper dot i it for me at less expense, and
those who have what I want manage
to let mo know some way. ' |Warreu

Scotch Irish descent, sefctled i:> ButU-r
county in 1792. He raised a family of
seven sons and five daughters, the only

take upon himself the work of arrang
ing for the family reunion. lie is a
stalwart man who "does not look his age.
and still carries himself like the soldier
I that he was for four years in the Federal
| army during the Civil war. At the
[ close of the war he engaged in the oil
business with his sons.
Some three hundred members of the

The ninth annual meeting of the
Mercer S. O. S. Six teeners was held
Wednesday and Thursday of last week.
The attendance was not as liirge as hop
ed for, the register showing about, sixty
present, but that did not deter those
present from having an old-time jollifi
cation. Headquarters »vere at Hotel
Humes, in the parlors of which a pleas
ant social was conducted Wednesday
evening, and also the business meeting,
thus leaving them free to visit the old
groun<ts Thursday forenoon, which
proved a very happy time.
All Al>o:ir<l.
Just two week.", then all aboard for
the great big Butler Fair Excursions
on all roads to Butler, and then some
by steam cars for Sets., some by street
cars for Sets., some in wagons, some in
carriages, some in baggies, and some
walking, all going to the fair, all right
Come, bring your friends, and vonr
horses; there is room for all. Five
hundred new hitching posts, sixty acres
of beautiful lawn, magnificient shade
trees. gof>d water and a whole sea of
people. Everything arranged for con
venience and comfort for all. Tbe
Butler Fair comes but once a year and
lasts only four days, as sure as we live,
people talk about it the whole year.
Everything was seen at the Butler Fair;
your friend you met at the Butler Fair;
the good music you heard at the Bntler
Fair: the fast racing you saw at the
Butler Fair: the fine quilts and sweet
preserves, the pretty little Jersey and
great short horn cattle, you saw at the
Butler Fair; and the cavalcade, where
the royal bred, choice specimens and
high priced animals are led in front of
yon for your inspection and admiration,
and a tnousand other things to entertain
instruct and amuse you, the fact is that
all who miss the Bntler Fair are in their
own road the Balance of the year.

•'Seorcllillg.'*
A sail story appeared in The New
York Times «»f June 11th. A vonng
bicyclist was running a nuu with a
trolley ear. When he showed signs of
tiring, the jeers of the men on the oar
spurred him to renewed effort., which
was further encouraged l>y the favoring
smiles of the ladies at his renewed
efforts. Then came the tragedy. The
onlookers, sitting at their ease in the car
and themselves risking nothing, ' saw
him regain what he had lost, go for
ward. * * » Blood was pouring
from mouth, ears and nostrils, and he
was badly cut and scratched"- and
dead! No wonder that the reporter
has occasion to add that, after the part
they had played as unintentional causes
in this tragedy, "the young men and
young women slowly returned to their
car. The young men did not jeer
au'aiu. The young women had no
heart to smile." This principle of
"record-breaking" and of insatiable
attempt to outdo others is the bane of
the age. It is urged that it is the very
life of progress. We do not think so.
There would lie just as much real pro
gress nay, more—in all careers of life
if men would leave off pitting them
selves so eternally against each othnr
and put themselves instead against their
own best without regard to what others
might have done or be doing. Let each
man strive in every walk and relation
of life to attain the best of which he is
capable, with due regard to the har
mony of his own best interests, and let
him neither mind if he is distanced by
others on the one band, nor be satisfied
though be beat all the world on theother,
yet fall short of the standard of his own
capabilities. So will the harmonious
progress of the race be better assured
than by all the "record-breaking" and
"scorching" possible.—The Sanitarian.
