RED TAPE - On the 30th day OF April 1855,
James Watson OF Harrison ma le his dec,ara-
ton that he served as private in the compa-
ny of Capt. Andrew Mcclellan, belonging to
the Regiment of Foot commanded by Colonel
Jonathan Mitchell, during the Revolutionary
War; and participated in the Penobscot Expe-
ditOn. He was drafted at Gorham, Maine,
July 18th, 1879, and served for two months and
eighteen days, and was honorably discharged
at Portland on the 18th of SEPTEMBER, 1779.
Mr.. a. X. Harmon made the application for
Mr.. Watson for a warrant of 16O acres OF land
on the said 3Oth of April, 1855 and to give an
idea of the circumlocuton the matter had to
go through before the warrant was obtained
we will state that it was not till the 10th of
December 1869 that the warrant was forward
ed Mr.. Watson having died a few months af-
ter his application. His heirs will now enjoy
the benefits OF the laud after waiting over four
teen years.
GOOD NEws.-We are glad to hear that a
petition is in circulation among the wholesale
merchants, which is being extensively signed,
to the effect that their places of amusement
shall be closed on Christmas and New Years
days. We think the move an eminently prop
er one and we cannot conceive why those days
are not really more important as Holidays
than any others in the year. We trust that
there will not be a single name among the
wholesale merchants refused land we have that
faith in human nature that we do not believe
there will be.

PLANNING roR THE WINTER About this
time, when the old year go@s away and
the new comes in; when the harves,s are
threshed and wiuuowed and slowed away
ia bins when the care Of stock, the draw
ing of logs to the sawmiIl, the chopping
OF wood, and other work of like charac-
ter, takes the place of the active opera-
tons Of tiIiage; when the evenings are
long ana pleasant by the freside, and the
days are cold AID short out doors, it is a
very good time indeed to plan the future

is 70 plan to have It done before the spring
has come. .

stakes TO make or to keep them strong
against cattle before the Snow is deep IN
the vools the stakes may be cut and
drawn out and stacked up By the. fences,
where they will be handy when called for
IN the hurry OF work SO, too, on some

this lase day Of the season leaves aud
mould may be gathered and pilei upon or
mixed with it when the heat steams in
the warm spring raius, the mould will
soften and decay to help the manure in

READING FOR THE GoUSG.-kcep yourScl
on short diet as to noyclS-read only the
standard ones, and read those thoroughly as
an exercise in style rather than at Il galloplng
pace for the story.
1t is rather Il bad sign of the times that
so many young people find SCOTS novels
heavy reading. It shows that their minds
are ctfcminated so that the strong, sound,
healthy style of highly-cultivaicd man IS
too much for them. You can drlbbic all the
powers of your mind if you merely read for
amusement, and will not read ANYTHING that
cannot be strained through Them like water
through sieve. You ought every day to
read something that requires thought, care,
and attention, or you twill gradually lose the
power of thought and attention altogether.
BE sure that you are rising higher every
vcar, and read better and better books.
Every Young person oughtto begin tofound
their own personal library. and have their
own chosen individual books to take with
them when they leave their fathers house
to set up for themselves. y good library
may be picked up by Il young man from
wear to year without his feeling the expense
at any time, and a good library is the most
charming furniture for new home that can
