over, because think it pity to interrupt
your studies, but l am sorry to miss you
from the house. thank you both for try
ing to make the last week so pleasant to
me, and l am going to give you each a
present, to keep you reminded of the hab-

behavior. The past week has proved it
is possible for even boys to observe"
As she spoke, grandma placed small

" Never" echoed Carroll * Thank
you, grandma"
And SO ended the holiday week grandma
had thought would be so terrible,-Meth-

HE Engineer.

All whoever thinks Of the bold engineer,
As he stands By his throttle of steel.
And spurs on his steed to its maddened career,
In its Numbering and pOnderous reel?
Like a soldier begrimme1 in battles dark strife
And brave to the lannon's hot breath,
He TOO, plunges on with his long train of life.
Cumindful Of danger or DEATH
Through the daylight
Into the night
Dark, dark,
He knows alright.
Ger ridges,
And bridges,
Dccayed or strong,
Like mythic god he rushes along!
Who thinks OF the bold engineer
so true to his post, like a statue he stands,
WIKI his eyes fixed fast on afJr;
Our own precious lives he holds in his hands,
our wealth we give to his care.
For good must he be, the bold engineer,
A. he da>hcs from village to town,
Aud b1ng= us all safe, midst smile a tear,
To the forms dearly our own
Onward he goes,
His whistle he blows
Deep, deep,
Through hIgh-drifted SHOWS;
With crossings,
And tossibgs,
In heat and in rain,
O'er the glittering track lie pulls the long train
Al hail 10 the bold engineer
] love the brave man, though accidents come,
With their haart-rendtng anguish and woe;
sun foremost he rides to whatever doom,
Like the form on The vessels bold Prov
And rs he sweeps on like the wind through the
land,
Away from sweet home" and its charm,
For the sake of the loved ones" and wife NAV
Thy hand
o, God. protect him from harmi
On doth he ride,
No danger betide,
swift, swift,
With bridegroom and BRIDE
The taIlcst
The smallest
The rich and the poor,
All follow hIs path, DER river and mOorl
Long life ID the bold engineer

Cob Meal.

Mr. WILLIAM FELcH of Ftlchville sends the
following, under date Of February 10th:
In your last issue was the statement Of an
Indiana farmer who writes that - about y
years ago nearly all the farmers in this pal t
OF the State bought corn and cob cruel err
aud expected to Eaten their stock on what
the machine made. The crushcr p rf rm,d
lis part well enough, but the trouble was
the ignorant cows would not eat tbe'melI.
and finally could not be coaxed into the
stable If there was sign Of the meal there,
while the hogs left their pens and took TO
the woods. l have concluded that cob-meal
was only valuable as a substitute for saw
dust" have lived FIVE years in Windsor
County, and each year feed more or less cob
meal to my cows, other cattle, horses, and
some to hogs, and judge them to be a valua-
BILE substitute for cut straw, and other coarse
fodder, for other stock. For cows that give
milk, scald the meal. then mix with it
sour milk, or other slops to make it swilI
and salt it suitably, and they never fail to
eat 1t greedly: with good share of clear
cobs, run through a cob cracker, mixed with
it, and so use up all my spare cobs, and
buy them if l can cheap.

Ohio loses annually $4,000 900 in sheep
killed by dogs, and nearly 81 900 900 in in
juries. The sheep of Illinois and MARYLAND
are being rapidly thinned out in the same
way, the former State having fallen in two
years from the sixth to the ninth rank among
the States in the number and value of its
sheep from this cause.

Our Darling.

Bounding like foot ball,
Kicking at the door;
Falling from the table top,
SPRAYING on the floor;
Smashing cups and saucers,
Splitting DOlly's head;
Putting little pussy-cat
Into baby's bed.
Building shops and houses,
Spelling fathers hat,
Hiding mothers precious keys
Underneath the mat;
Jumping on the fender,
Poking at the fire,
Dancing on his little lrg5-
Legs that never tire
Making mothers heart leap
Fiity lines a day
Aping everything We do,
Every word we say.
Shouting, lau CHING, tumbling.
Roaring with Will,
Anywhere and everywhere,
Never, never still.
Prescnt-briBging sunshine.
Absent-ledvIng night;
That's our precious darling,
That's our hearts delight.

Freight wanted and nothing to be had anyway. Always excepting Tuesdays. Let us be thankful and pray that they may come every day in the week, Sundays ex- cepted. General Mcclellan said the army must be drilled General Directors say trains must not be run because iack-frost has got mortgage on the road and may foreclose on car full of passengers. Of fensiye operations ceased on the lssh March. Big ice freshet spoke for. A ct didn't come. Greenhorns thought if trains were kept on, every part of the road would be thus carefully watched, and all places where washing ont commenced, ar rested at once. But railroad men, great men. They know. Poor outside public don't know. Poor outside public do know they want the use of road but cant have it. Frost must be out, for frogs are pip ing away like mad.

One old big fellow tipped us the wink that he should holler h-u-m-b-u-gl hum bug! h-u-m-b-u-gl in a short time. We threw handful of gravel at him and he went under ker-chug.
 We were told that the R. R. Company had purchased the land on the north side of the depot, and g highway was to be laid out thereto prevent crossing the. main and side tracks at the upper end of the dugway. When cars are being switched of at that end, teams have had to drive up around by Nr. Titus blacksmith shop and down. So we have been told. s It would seem to be for the convenience of both the public and company to have the road put through. Does any know whose business it Is to see to it.
 Watson Frisbie while at work with a buzz-saw, caught the sleeve of his cssrdi- gan jacket on the teeth, which drew his left wrist into line and struck it nearly of. It is stated that the blood spurted from the arteries and struck at distance of seventeen feet from where he stood. Dr. Brown is in hopes that he can save the hand. A few days will decide.

Election was unusually quiet, this year, even for this old, sober, and moral place; hardly excitement enough to make it in teresting. At a special town meeting $35O was voted to the center school dis trict to aid in the establishment of gra- ded school; the selsctmen were also in structed to enlarge the cemetery at the center, or to purchase lot for anew cem- etery.
 Many of our Democrats and all of our Republicans regret the reelection of Bal dwin, sheriff. If the people geta chance at him again, we think they will elect him to carry on his own farm and hire his own help as others do, without appropriating prisoners labor. 4se.s sSs5 The milk train is largely patronized by the farmers of this and North Goshen; all are well pleased with the promptness with which their cans are returned.
