(Special Correspondence to the PHK88.) Layton, Jan. 18. Androw Yetter of Blairstown, and John Snider of Layton, made a short visit to Sliver Lake last week, and brought back with them seven of the finny beauties for-Vrhlch that Lake Is famous. John has been there several times and knows pretty near where to tap that body of water for big pickerel. The churches In tho valley are very nicely cared for at present both within and with' out, with the exception of the ones at Layton and Hainesvtlle, which really need a couple of conts of outside white not only for their preservation, but for beauty's sake. Lester T. Smith and wife are recovering from their Illness, and will soon be around again a usual. The extra meeting held at Lnyton ter minated last Sunday night. The effort of of Rev. C. H. Van Glahn and J. H. Schultz has resulted In a considerable outpouring of the spirit. Misses Nellie Angle, Sadie Drake, Maggie Van Auken, and Mrs. Cornelia Kittle were Interested and will perhaps be added to the honored list of church membership at this pined'. A. 8. Stoll has bought the house and lot at Bevans known as the "Quince Lot." Consideration (175.00. It is one of the nice locations in the village, nnd it Is not a very long time ago that it was hold at an even thousand dollar. Charles Bensley while working In the tie woods captured two grey squirrels. They were brought home in dinner palls, and Charley has them now In a nicely pre pared cage. So many people wonder whothor a body of crushed stone on most of our road beds would make a good road, that we feel like recommending to such doubting Tommys, that they send to the Secretary of State, Washington, D. C, for the "Special Con sular Reports on streets and highways In foreign Countries." Tboy will learn from this that there are thousands upon thous ands of miles of such roads on the Contl- ent, ami the British Isles, which give the most periect satisfaction, 'more are sev eral thousand miles of such road In the United States giving like satisfaction. Good roods built In the hey-day of the Roman Empire, hundreds of years ago are still good roads to-day. The use of crushed tone is not experimental by any nieans although lots of people act as If they thought Sandyston was now making the Drat stone road the world has ever seen. What an illusion. Mr. Abraui Williams and wlfo of Sparta, spent part of Saturday and Sunday last with Mr. H. E. Montross and family at Layton. We regret to report that Mrs. Es tells Kintner who is yet suffering from a pro longed and severe attack of rheumatism is not so well at this writing. Latest reports are to the effect that among the applicants to rent the hotel at Lajton, Mr. Harvey Hornbeck, son of ex Judge Everett Hornbeck, of Dinguian's Ferry is the one to secure the lease. Har vey has been a commercial traveler, and man able to turn his hand to most any avocation and will probably develop Into capable landlord. Mrs. Hornbeck Is a daughter of the late James Brisooe, Esq., and has therefore had previous experience in this Hue. Elijah Lundy Is to oommenoe farming again In the spring on the Keasor farm. Lijah evidently prefers the simplicity and hcalthfulness of life on a farm to the arti ficial and enervating Influences of metro politan existence. Lots of room to broaden out, and expand up there. There Is a two legged animal without bristles known to lots of people as a "Komi Hog." He delighu in crowding wheelmen or other people from their share of the ruad, and running into somebody, especi ally when he Is a little f -!!. That happen to be the chronic condition of the one 1 have reference to I am soriy to say. Such "Road Hogs" generally run up against a enag sooner or later, and get a dusfe that Is good for what ails them. Wash Lantz the veteruu butcher of Halnesvllle sold nearly 400 sheep skins re cently that we judge to be his last years crop. Wash don't bluster tuuch, but he does business all the year round, and a connidvrable of it too. Hu is too buy a man to "bum" around hotels and other disreputable place and in fact Wash don't seem to be built with much Inclination that way. BIr. Morrl Woodhull of Long Island Iient a few days with the fandly of Dr. ,1. N. Miller last week. Mr. Woodhull was on his way to visit a sister at Blnghamton, and stopped off to renew acquaintance with the doctor nnd to take a few note on poultry culture at Pine Hill Farm. Hi Idea of high clam dairy farming In Ver mont, and in Missouri In which he had practical experience were Intensely inter esting. Ills visit made a pleasant break In the comparative monotony of life at Pine Hill Farm. Suppose a Post Office official, or officials get up a drawing for a prize, that Is In a speciflo sense a lottery. The drawing takes place In the Post OfTloe. Will some one please look Hp the Statutes nnd also the Post Office regulations and see how carefully one guards against lotteries and the other the sanctity of the United State Post Ofllce, also the heavy penalties Im posed. It Is evident that with the emolu ments of a government office, there arc certain well defined requirements that can not be evaded only at the rlBk of Incurring the penalties attached fur such acts of omission, or commission. One of Yetters men while getting out ties used a drawing knife to remove the bark. In drawing It quickly toward him the knlfo struck his knee with foroe, and severed the knee cap from the knee. No further particular have been obtained at this writing. The damp and chaugable weather for some time prevalent seem to be very pro ductive of throat, lung and rheumatic troubles. Almost every house has Its quota of sick. We have grave fears that our Dr. J. N. Miller will succumb to the strain of over work, unless we have a favorable ohange In the weather soon. Mr. Charlc McCarty of RaymondskiU visited hi friends at Pine Hill Farm last Saturday and Sunday. Frank McKeeby, Ksq., the progressive merchant at Bevans I In great good humor since last Sunday night. Well he really ought to be, for It Is a boy again you see. Mother and child are doing well. MONTAGUE. (Special Correspondence to the Phkss.) Montague, Jan. 17.

A strange dog, a hound came to the re sidence of Harold Chambers last week The owner, whoever he Is, can have him by calling for him.

Wallace, an authority on trot ting horses, has obtained permission to exhume the bones of Rysdyks Hambletonian and have them mounted, when they will be placed on exhibition in the Museum of Natural History in New York. It ia intended to show the evolution of the equine species from the time of the little five toed horse no larger than a fox down to the present time. Ilambletonian was the first really great trotting sire known, and his descendonts comprise a large per cent of all the fast horses now on the tracks. Sjiocimens of the race horse, the draught horse and the common stock will in time be added to the fosuil collection. Quits Differtnca.

Right hero In this township we are hemmed In by heavy grades, with only one outlet that Is fairly good or decent, and that 1 the road to BusbkiU which leads from tho county seat, where many of us have business and must go. What a dis grace Is the Cemetery hill, and also the one at Manor Hnll, which Is a very hard place with anything like a fair load. It also compels the wheelmen to dismount, and to Home extent discourage that olas of people who leave a largo amount of money In tho country. The owner of tho premises, Mr. Quick, we understand has been willing for years to have a level road made there, which could start ner his barn and end near the Reformed Church. " Sweet " says " wc have the am kind among u to-day," and by this he must certainly refer to those who prevented that road from being re laid and this miserable hill obviated.

Pour on the oil and rub the spot with the hands ; if it does not romoye it with the first applica tion, try more j the sooond attempt will likely remove the stain entirely. Ripe tomatoes will remove ink stains from white cloth. To take ink out of linen, dip the ink sjiot in pure melted tallow, then wash ont the tallow, and the ink will come out with it. Konkingin sourmilk is a romedy. Oxalate of potash will remove ink stains. If the stain isof long stand ing apply oxalic acid ; moisten tho spot woll with water and apply the acid in a powder, and after the stain disappears, rinso thoroughly in pure soft water.

It was a British magistrate who, when told by a certain rascal that he was not married, responded : "That is a good thing for yonr wife." It was a Portuguese mayor who enumerated, among the marks by which the body of a certain drowned man might be identified whon found, "a marked impediment in his speech." It was a Frenchman who, contentedly laying his head on a stone Jar for a pillow, replied to an inquiry whether it was not too hard : "Not at all.for I have stuffed it with hay."
