/ Smallpox in Stark County.

Smallpox is spreading in the neigh
borhood of Sparta. All business is sus-
pended, schools dismissed, and the
churches closed. Mr.. John William;
and his son-in-law, Mr.. Briggle, have
both died since our last issue. The dis
ease has spread TO Sandyvllle, and seems
inclined to assume, the form of an cpl
tlemic. The Mayor of Waynesburgh
has issued a proclamation against ira
ding in such articles as might carry the
disease, and ordering that village to be
put in proper sanitary condition.-Min-

Commencement.

Year of the Collegiate Department of
this Institution were held last week.
On Sabbath afternoon, June 18th, the
Pres. Rev. Willis Lord, D. D., preached
the Baccalaureate Sermon.
The Annual Address to the Literary
Societies was delivered on Tuesday eve
ming by Rev. S. j. Wilson, d. d. of the
Western Theological Seminary, Al
legheny City, Pa. Disclaiming the
pampering of egotism and self-conceit,
the DIR. urged the Importance of due
self-esteem (self-estimation) Its wrong
to depreciate the powers with which
God has endowed us. The due appre-
citation of our powers, and the proper es-
innate of the work given us to do, in
stead of fostering pride, develops true
humility. 1t is the man who places a
low standard before him and has a mean
conception of what he ought to do, who
is proud, feeling that he has done some
great thing.
Instances were given illustrating the
fact, that the really great, are the truly
humble. Webster's magnificent powers
were only equalled by his peerless mod
esty. -.fFefH rfrT ascT Pa,
There are some popular misconcep-
tions, which tend to mislead the student
of to-day. Much is said of Genius and
Inspiration.
There is Genius and there is Inspira-
ton. But the success of the most tai
ented, depends on the energy and inde-
fatigable labor with which his powers
are developed and used.
Reference was made to Cicero, Demos
themes, Michael Angelo, and Others,
who, while they were gifted with great
natural powers, owe their success and
usefulness to their undying energy and
untiring effort. Patience is Genius
Energy is Genius; Labor is Genius. So
as regards Inspiration. Some fondly
hope, as an excuse for their sloth and
inactivity, that in some favored hour,
they will find that Inspiration of which
they have heard, and which will call
forth the hidden powers of their nature.
But Inspiration is in Work. -.
The sum of this stirring and inspiring
address was: Set before you high aim
and expect to attain it by energy, labor
and perseverance. 4 : 44ss.-A. y ~

says: We like to hear beginner toot-

weather, and inspire man-not to pro-

ance. Play on, brother-practice makes

Z The question is often asked why the
Howe Sewing Machine is the best. The
answer is, simply because it does every
thing in the sewing line with such per-
feet satisfaction. Every one who has
used Howe Machine pronounces it the
most complete. Its work speaks for it
self. No other machine has such unan-
imous testimony in its behalf. Every
body praises it, and no family should be
without it. If you wish 4 No. ma
