VERY little business was accomplish
ed by the Reform Meeting last Sabbath
afternoon. the time being occupied in
discussion of the various propositions
submitted to the meeting. -
We again take occasion to suggest
what seems to us the most practical
course to pursue. Appoint a commit
tee to present the petition, which has
been circulated, and generally signed
by the business men and citizens of the
place, to the town council. 1t is not
necessary that said petition be signed
by the ladies, because they are known
to be unanimously in favor of the OBJ
| ject of the organization. We do not
know the views of the Council on the
subject, but those members with whom
we are acquainted. are gentlemen who
entertain proper regard for the Sab
bath, and desire to promote TIE peace
and welfare of our community. We
therefore entertain strong. hope that a
favorable response would be received
from that body. in case said petition
should be presented.
We would add, that in as much as our
citizens hold very wide views on the
subject of the observance of the Sab
bath. some concessions should be made
to the end that harmony may be at
| tanned.

or stimulents of any kind, enjoys re-

feels as vigorous and young as when he
was in his 18th year. He says that the
idea, generally entertained, that wliel,
men become old, they cannot enjoy
life, is based upon very erroneous 'prin-

declaration that he enjoys life fully as
well as he ever did.
