Female Society.

What is it that makes all those mer

superior to others who do nots Wha1
makes that woman who is accustomed
to and at ease in, the society of men
superior to her sex in general? Solely
because they are in the habit of free
graceful, continued conversations with
the other sex. Women in this way LOSE
their frivolity, their faculties awaken
their delicacies and peculiarities unfold
all their beauty and captivation in the
spirit OF intellectual rivalry. And the
men lose their pedantic, rude, declama.
tory, or sullen manner. The coin of the
understanding and the heart change:
continually. Their asperities are rubbed
off, their better materials polished and
frightened, and their richness, like the
gold, is wrought into finer workman.

MilIershurr Machine Company.

This enterprising Manufacturing
Company are now preparing for an ex-
tensive campaign. They are getting
out pamphlets in which they give full
description of the machinery which they
make. They manufacture the celebra-
ted Excelsior" Reaper and Mower
Combined, which has a worldwide rep
utation as being one of the best, if not
the ueTy best, machines made. Testi-
monials numerous and convincing flow
in upon them from all parts where their
machines have been used. They make
two STYLES of Excelsiors either of which
they sell as a single Mower, or as a
Reaper and Mower combined. The one
is known as the "Senior Excelsior"
which mows swath four and half
feet wide, and reaps nearly six feet
wide. The other is the 'Junior Excel
sior," and mows swath four feet two
inches, and reaps five feet four inches.
Passing then from the Reapers and
Mowers, we glance at the Thresher,
which is a neat, strong, and durable
machine. These also have given per-
feet satisfaction wherever used. They
intend to make large number of these
machine, as the demand for them is
daily increasing. Beside the machines
mentioned, this company manufacture
all kinds of farm implements, such as
plows, cultivators, corn planters, and in
fact everything that is generally made
in first-class manufacturing establish
ment. A large number of hands are
employed, besides a lot of machinery
which does the work of great number
of men. We invite our readers to take
a stroll through their establishment
whenever an opportunity presents itself.

Death of John Saxon.

John Saxon, editor of the Canton Re-
pository and Republican died on Sunday
morning. Mr.. Saxon was the oldest
practical printer and editor in the State.
He has been connected with the Reposi-
tory since 1916. He was in his eighty
first year. He has set an example
which it would be well if all his
younger brethren would follow. For
many years he has lived an earnest
christian life.

University of Wooster,

This noble institution has just finished
the second term of its first years exist
ence. Although but babe, as it were,
among the literary institutions of the
land, it has already the intellectual ca
pacity OF the full-grown man. Well
may Ohio be proud of so noble an Uni
versity, for few, very few, if any, can
boast of a higher standard, more COM
plete and thorough course of study, a
firmed basis of endowment, a more
beautiful situation, and an abler corps
of Professors. Yale and Harvard, which
boast of their ancient days, of their
sound erudition and their classic shades,
look with wondering eyes upon this fair
daughter of the west, and are amazed
at her progress, and at the beauty and
comliness of her person. She has taken
her stand among the first and well may
this. s.Sta tie be proud that she has such an
youth.
The University, although not so large
ly attended during the first year of its
operations as some thought it would be,
perhaps, has proved itself grand sue
cess. Its catalogue just issued records
fifty-eight students. When we take into
consideration its high standard, and the
fact that there is no preparatory de-
partment, which often outnumbers the
whole collegiate classes, we are obliged
to say, that to begin with sixty students
is certainly very fine opening. The
prospect for large increase in the num-
ber of students next fall, is quite fiat
tering. When young men pass by this
institution because it is young, and the
number of students few, they know not
what they lose. We advise all who in
tend taking collegiate course, to 60 to
the University of Wooster, and they
shall never regret it.

Young Men, Don't Do 1t.

Don't marry dimples, nor mouth, nor
hair, nor necks, nor teeth, nor chins, nor
simpers. These bits and scraps of fem
Unity are very poor things to tie to.
Marry the true things-look after con-
geniality, kindred sympathies, disposi-
ton, education, and if this be Joined
with social position, or even filthy lucre
why don't let them stand in your way.
Get woman-not one of those parlOl
automatons that sits down Just so
thumps on a piano, and dotes on whis-
per. Living statues are poor things to
call into consultation. The poor little
mind that can scarcely fathom the depth
of dress trimming, can't be help
mate of any account. Don't throw
your time away on such trifling things

The Bloom Of Age.

A good woman never grows old.
Years may pass over her head, but if
benevolence and virtue dwell in her
heart, she is rs cheerful as when the
spring of life first opened to her view.
When we look upon good woman, we
never think of her age, she looks as
charming as when the rose of youth
first bloomed on her cheek. That rose
has not faded yet; it will never fade.
In her neighborhood she is the friend
and benefactor. In the church the de-
vout worshipper and exemplary Chris
tian. Who does not love and respect
the woman who has passed her days in
acts of kindness and mercy-who has
been the friend OF man and God-whose
whole life has been a scene of kindness
and love, a devotion to truth and re-
ligion? We repeat, such woman can
not grow old. She will always be fresh
and buoyant in spirits, and active in
humble deeds ofmercy and benevolence.
If the young lady desires to retain the
bloom and beauty of youth, let her not
yield to the sway of fashion and folly
let her love truth and virtue; and to the
close of life she will retain those feel
ings which now make life appear gar
den of sweets-ever fresh and ever new.
