To THE PUBLIC,
In Auswer 70 @. m. Fosters Card.

TN NOVEMBER LAST WE COMMENCED
to build two reservoirs for two purposes
one for skating and one for freezing ice. Before
doing 80 We went to the agent OF inc wafer
Company to see " they would give US water for
that purpose, and he consented. After the res.
eryoirs were built, the agent Of the Water Com
pany told us to tap the companys pipes below
the Central mill, which We did, assisted by three
workmen and an agent OF the company being
present at the time.
Aftcr the reservoirs were filed with water, c.
NJ Foster came to us two or three times and
wanted to lease the upper reservoir Tor the pur-
pose OF freezing ice, but we would not consent,
as We wanted to use i ourselves. Q. N. Foster
thon went to the Water Company and got the
agent to stop the water upon US through mis-
statements, as he feared an opposition In Ice
The water after being stopped on US for time,
VIC went to the agent and asked him TO let us
have the water again, as we had built the rcser-
yoirs at great expense, and without the water
they would be useless and we would be heavy
losers He again consented; and from that time
forth till the end Of the season, we had sufficent
water for all our purposes.
In regard to running water from tho streets,
we deny. Any other water than the companys
that ever ran into our reservoirs was from
heavy rain storm or the melting SHOWS from the
sidchills, which was pure snow water. When
g. N. Foster found he could not lease our reser-
voir or stop the water again, he went and got INC
Gould & Curry pond to freeze Ice In, which nc
did to be even with US.
Before VIC got our icc cut and housed he came
TO us and wanted MS to buy him out, but we
would not as We had enough. a few weeks
since We entered the market, putting the price
of Ice lower than him, and ever since he has g.
pcatedly wanted to buy or sell, but we wouid 90
neither. but stand on our own merits.
And lastly, he got Abe strouse to advance inc
money to buy out Mr. kirmans Ice business: snS

Country Girls

Meta Victoria Butler, in the ohio CAt.

girls:
The farmers daughters are soon to be the
life as well as the pride Of this country
glorious race Of women which no other land
can, show. seek not to hatter them, for
before they can become this they will have to
make an earnest effort Of one or two kinds.
There are some who deprecate their conSi.
ton, and some who have a false pride in it,
because they demand more consideration
than they merit want of intelligence
upon all the subjects of the day and of a
refined education is no more excusable in a
country than in town bred girl, in these
days of many books and newspapers
Many girls are discouraged because they
cannot be sent away from home TO boarding
schools; but men of superior minds and
knowledge of the world would rather have
for wives women well aud properly educated
at home and this education can be had
whenever the desire is not wanting. A
taste for reading does wonders, and an earn.
est thirst after kuowledge is almost certain
to attain sweet draught from the 'Pierian
Spring
There is farmers daughter in this very
room in which / am writing-s beautiful
refined and intelligent woman, in whose
girlhood books we're not so plenty as now
and who obtained her fine education under
difficulties which would have discouraged
any but one who had true love for study.

then. He went in the morning to the office
Of an attorney, and in the conversation it
leaked out that the lawyer had received
three FIVE dollar bills that day from Abbott,
and that he had them still in his possession
On examination they turned out to be the

First Clasa Hotela.

The Reverend Newman Hall has been
writing down his reniniscencies of America,
and, among other things, he gives US a story
OF the way in which he was treated at no
less a place than the fremont House in Bos.
ton, though the gross oyerchange he com.
plains of would doubtless have been made
at many of the hotels in our country that are
prondest Of calling themselves frst.class es.
adjustments. Mr.. Hall should have been
informed by his friends, oil of whom, if they
had travelled in this country, know very well
that by q first class hotel in America is
meant place where the highest possible
charges are made for the least possible ser.
vices, and the least personal comfort. Hotel
keeping in America has now become mere
speculation, nothing more, and the problem
presented 70 the owners is--and very sue
cessfully is it being solved, TOTO raise the
premium to the very highest point that it is
found the public will bear, to diminish the
comforts given in exchange for the money
pad, to the lowest point consistent with
keeping up appearances, and TO drop of the
BODY polluc AS soon as they are gorged -
They then sell out to q new set Of leeches,
and the game begins again. The extortion
complained Of by Mr.. Hall we do not believe
peculiar to his Boston hotel it is the rule,
doubtless, at all the other Boston houses, as
it is in New York, Philadelphia, Washing.
ton, and the other large cities Of the Union.
To 20 to FIRST class hotel in New York CITY.
and to get into hack in the same city, are
things only to be thought of by those who
are rich enough to be indifferent to the cost
of living, or too proud to betray that they are
not indifferent. 1t is the same if one goes
TO first class restaurant. Let him calcu.
late ever 80 closely and accurately, from the
few data furnished him, and he will find that
the proprietOrs calculations are made after
q very different arithmetic from his own. If
he be bent upon going to these places, he
must dismiss from his mind all care for the
cost, live without counting it beforehand,
and never allow himself to think of it after.
ward.
In this way he will not only enjoy that
peace Of mind that comes from an undisturb.
ed digestion, but will propitiate the clerk, the
waters, the porters and the man who can
succeed in doing this, may live in any hotel
he chooses, as long as he can keep on doing
it. The rule is simple: pay with cheerful
countenance, everything that is demanded
give gratuities at every step for the slightest
services, or for none at all ; ask for nothing
out Of the common make no complaint to
anybody Of anybody else, and perhaps, on
your leaving, the bland bejeweled and po-
mHtumed clerk will offer his hand TO his i'm.
Poverished guest. This, however, is not to
be depended upon rs certain. There are
clerks who make it rule never to shake
hands with any one who has not lived six
months in their hotels, OF whom they have
any reason to suspect is going away because
he cannot afford to stay any longer.--Put.
