then cease to break and the temper will
generally prove to be about right. Scythes

A COOP CEMENT-A very adhesive ce-
Z r. ment, and one particularly useful for fasten-
T ing the brass mountings on glass lamps, as
it is unaffected by petroleum, may be pre-
pared by boiling three parts of rosin with
one part of caustic soda, and five parts OF
water, thus making kind of soap, which
is mixed with one half its weight of plaster
of Paris. Zinc white, white lead, or precip-
itated chalk may be used instead of the plas-
ter, but when they are used the cement will
be longer in hardening. .-Ans. Artizan.

For the Free Press and Tim

Town meeting passed off much as usual,
this year-Peter Fountain, 7. j Coon, and
and about three other citizens having as
sembled at the town house to do the business,
while some $50 others, including many of
the first business men in town, were IN at
tendance as spectators.
The performance was not quite up to
those Of past years, in point of interest.
owing to the absence of that prime stock
actor, ''Sim" Edison, and one or two other
performers, who have heretofore acted the
drunk part to such perfection. Two or
three men are in training to take the place
of TIE departed-to Mass.-Simeon, but
there will be an aching void for a year or two.
The stage managers did not want the re-
ports of town officers read, and they We're
not J R. Forest wished to introduce a
resolution in relation to ST this point
he was squelched.
The election of officers went of with 4
rush, those fret nominated-by the mana
gers-being elected When the Office Of
Town Grand Juror was reached, 4 few of
the spectators, fearing that the show would
/ be all over before noon, even, ami that they
would not get their moneys worth, pro-
/ posed to have ballot, SO that they could
say that they had had voice in the pro-

tiers seemed desirable TO some, and Tom

ballot was condescendingly granted, though
the managers did not ike to have their
! programme disarranged.

school districts was dismissed in jif'y, DO

and the vote was finally rec0nsidered as

winds, much to the satisfaction Of some Of
the spectators, and probably 70 the ad-
vantage Of all concerned. At about half

I spectators feeling that the managers had
wofully failed in getting Up irst-class
entertainment, and that winks. and mods,
and Jokes, and conundrums, woald hardly
take the place of the boisterous perform
ances Of other days. Many Of the citizens
do not really like the way matters are man

stand by and say nothing. and allow a half
