Runaway.

On last Friday Jimmie Duncan left
his pillow and horses in the field in which
he was plowing, with two little boys to
take care of them while he would go to
the house just a little distant to "take in
a few refreshments. He had hardly left
the field when his team took fright, and
started in their wild career, jerking the
plow over stones and stumps not slow,
the plow, at times, higher than the
horses heads,-presenting SUIT Love-
good scene, while poor Jimmie, with
wide stretched eyes and hair standing
on ends, like the quills on an excited
African Porcupine, started after the
team, gathering the fragments of the
plow as he went-"it was all that he
could do The team ran but short
distance and was stopped; fortunately
the horses escaped injury, but Jimmie
declares he never knew there were so
many pieces to plow before.

Stick to Your Trade.

The tendency of young men to grav-
itate towards the profession, is not one
of the healthful impulses of the age.
The evil Will however in time correct it
self, but not until hundreds of our youth
have failed of their ambition. The ma
jority of men are so constituted that if
the first pursued in life fails, other
schemes are pursued with little zest. On
the other hand, we have observed that
where persons have selected an occu-
patton after an earnest conviction of
their fitness for the performance of its
duties, prosperity has usually rewarded
the decision. But we have no idea of
our special adaptation for a certain call
ing until the actual test has been ap-
piled. 1t is therefore all important that
our calling should not be chosen hastily.
At first blush, the learned professions
present to the young the most attrac-
tive pursuits in life. They are disposed
to regard skilled labor as an unpromis-
ing field of operations. They are daz-
zled by the fame of few who have at
tanned professional eminence, and take
to their souls the flattering JUNCTION that
they are similarly endowed. They for
get that a few great men have given
eminence to the professions, while the
professions themselves have given emil
nence to nobody.
1t is the utmost folly to relinquish a
good trade for the uncertainties of a
profession where the prizes are so rare,
and the blanks are so many. 1t is the
part of wisdom to perform well the
work in hand, no matter how humble it
may seem to be. Skilled labor is in great
demand. 1t commands certain returns
and if faithfully pursued leads to pros
perity. If you are a good mechanic
and like the business, no delusive hope
of acquiring wealth more quickly in
any untried calling should lead you to
make change.

Fine Surgical Operation.

A very important surgical operation
was performed by DIR. Ross, assisted by
DIR. Bigham on Wednesday last. Itcon-
sisted in removing large Cancerous
Tumor, weighing one and a half pounds,
from the breast of Mrs. Edward Bell of
Monroe township The tumor resulted
from an injury received about year
and a half ago. 1t involved the entire
left breast, which required its complete
amputation. The operation was skill
fully performed, occupying but few
moments of time. 1t is considered 4
very fine operation and one at re-
quires great deal of skill. We are glad
to learn that Mrs. Bell is recovering
rapidly. Although DIR. Ross is COM
paratively young man, yet his course
under DIR. Weber of Cleveland, one of
the finest surgeons in Ohio, has given
him thorough knowledge of his pro-
fession. DR.. Bigham is well enough
known as first-class physician to say
anything concerning his ability.

Husband and Wife,

Preserve the privacies of your house.
your marriage state and your hearts
from father, mother, sister, brother and
all the world. Between you two let no
third person come to share the secret
joy or grief that belongs to yourself
alone. Do you two, with Gods help,
build your own quiet world, not allow
ing your dearest earthly friend to be the
confident of aught that concerns youf
domestic peace. Let moments of alien
alton, if they occur, be veiled and for
gotten in moments and years of faith
full, devoted love, but never let the wall
of another's confidence be built up be-
tween you and your wife's or your hus-
bands heart. Promise this to yourselves
and to each other. Renew the VOW at
every temptation; you will find your
account in it; your souls will grow, as
it were, together, and at last become as
one. All, if many young pair had on
their wedding day known this all-im-
portant secret, how many marriages
would have been happier than, alas,
they are,
