ant surprise a month ago by the ar
rival direct from Illinois of two sons,
a daughter-in-law and grandchild,
none OF whom had he seen since they
were prattling babes and some OF
whom he had of course never seen
before. That the child should not
recognize its grandpa, considering
the fact that its mother was total
stranger, and that twenty years have
elapsed since its grandpa had met
its pa is not singular.

Now, the fact is, we fed those rob-
ins all the season on cherries, cur
rants and gooseberries, to their
hcarti's content and now they have
just gone into my Delaware vine
yard, cleaning then out as fast as
they ripen. Yesterday morning l
heard their music end went over to

were in the vineyard making sad

The ghost (if such a hlgh-pres
sure visitor can be called ghostlv)
left a memento of his visit behind
him. Harry declares that at the
time he was being so tightly en-
braced, his thumb came in contact
with button on Franks coat, and
he experienced considerable pain.
In the morning, on awakening, he
again felt the pain, and, looking at
his thumb found the skin slightly
abraded
This is the story as it was told to
us. Harry, as we said before, is a
sensible, practical, unromantic,
business man, and no believer in
spiritualism. He has nothing to ac-
complish in deceiving his friends,
and as joke it would be sorry
enough to be beneath contempt. 1t
may be considered one of the mar
vels of the latter days-not to be
believed by many; incapable of SO
