Two of our most highly esteemed young
Indies, who were in attendance at the pic nic
at Westons, on Wednesday were caught
behind an umbrella, smoking cigarettes. A
third young lady to whom they offered one,
refused to smoke it.
ARGUMENTUM APOSTORIORI.— Just as Rev.
Armstrong and his lady, were, this morning
starting for their new field of labor; they dis
patched their amiable daughter Ruth to the
grotto, supplying us with a rich variety and
quantity of garden sauce, accompanied by the
compliments of Mrs. Armstrong. Thanks for
the vegetables, and thanks for the compli
ments accompanying them. We own defeat.
Accept the situation. Can't meet such argu
ments. We take back all of our mischief,
and he goes away victorious. "Peace he with
in thy borders and prosperity be within thy
palaces." We always told you that Brothe r
Armstrong was a good neigebor. N.D.P.
Monroeton, July 23d 1881.
A little three year ohl " hopeful" here bout
was required by his mother, to try the virtue
of some medicine each morning before break
fast, as a remedy for some of his numerous
ailments. For one or two mornings she suc
ceeded by a little judicious flattery in per
suading him to take it without the usual con
comitant of holding his hands, throwing him
on his back and forcing it down him. This
sweet pursuasion consisted in calling the
other members of the family and especially
2)aterefamiliaa\o " see what a Major he was."
When the bottle was brought around the
third morning, he eyed the prepcration atten
tively for a while and then very sagely re
marked: "Mamma let' Dode' (his little sister
a year or two older than than himself) be
major this morning, I'm tired."
All honorably-discliurgeil soldiers and sail
ors of the late war are invited to participate
in the reunion to he held at this village on the
loth and 10th of September next. The
gathering is intended to he a grand fraternal
meeting of the veterans of the war, so that
they may enjoy a season of social intercourse
and renew the memories of their battles and
the hardships and dangers shared together.
The camp tires will burn brightly, the old
stories will be re-told and the battles will be
fought over again. The committee have
assurances already form Lycoming, Hradforti,
Potter, Center and other counties that their
several delegations will be large. Ample pro*
vision will be made to accommodate all who
may come, and it is expected that the railroad
fares will be largely reduced.— Wellsborough
Agitator.
An exchange says:—This is the time when
we like to call the attention of fanners and
gardeners to the work of budding their fruit
trees. Those who were too much hurried in
their spring work to attend to it in April and
May can now make up for lost time by resort
ing to this mode of increasing the variety and
amount of the orchard product. Budding can
now be done, and continue through the lirst
part of August. It is not us difficult as graft
ing. but like the latter it must be understood
just bow it is to be done, though this is easy
to do, by giving a little attention how others
do it. To cut a hud from the parent branch,
it should lake about an inch and a half of the
hark and a thin slice of the wood for three
fourths of the length of the bark, the bud
being about in the centre; and in setting it
cut a slit in the bark of the tree only, say two
inches in length,and at the top make a cut
aetoss the slit; then carefully raise the bark
up with the knife and insert in it the bud.
Do it as neatly as possible. Then wrap
around the entire slit and up to the bud bass
matting, using strips about a foot long and
half an inch in width, and tie in a knot. Of
course the branch or stock in which the bud
is set remains just as it was before, no top
ping or cutting off.
The budding of peach trees is best deferred
until August, and is always adopted instead
of grafting, which is not recommended for
this fruit.
