RIVER BANK, June 18th, 1873.
Mr.. EDITOR For fear "lSund0un" in
his vain delusion imagined we have trans
migated, | will give few items concern
ing things in this vicinity. The general
occuIestion of farmers at pres ent, is culti-
waiting *their corn, which for those that
procured good seed and planted IN good
tine looks well, though rain is very much
needed now. Oats Is about used up; if
the drouth continues much longer there
will be an entire failure OF the oats crop.
Wheat is also very much injured, late
sowing will be very short. The clover
crop has about matured, some have com
menced cuttiGg, the yield will be as good
as the general average.

part of this township, on the 10th inst.

The Rev. P J. Spangler, our new pas

We haven't heard Daniel Jacoby say
he intends to sue any one for damages, but
we did hear some one say they saw {
young man beastly drunk, lying i'll hi,

morning, where his comrads left hin
Saturday night.
OH shame on that young man.

Useful and entertaining literature is one
of the great desires of the day, for we are
proverbially reading and thinking peo-
pie. Among the quantities ofpublcations
received by us none are better than DEM
oREsT's MONTHLY MAGAZINE. The July
issue to hand is excellent in its line, and
for Family Magazine unsurpassed; its
inducements of premiums to subscribers,
delivered at time of subscribing, are
marvel of How to do it and succeed. 50

MR.. MILLIKAN:
There will be grand Sunday School
pic mic on the premises of Mr.. A. Crooks,
one mile east of this place, under the Su
pervision of the Union Sunday School of
Argos, on the 4th of July.
\ general invitation will be ex
tended to the surrounding Schools. and
everything that is possible, will be done
to make the affair pleasant and attractive.
There was an Ice cream and strawberry,
festival at the NJ. E. church last Wednes
day evening. Net proceeds about $75.
Don't know what disposition is to be
made of the money, unless it is to 'mend
the crack in the bell" The display of
cake was truly magnificent, and did cred
it to the ladies who contributed to this
part Of the entertainment.
The schools of Messrs North and Quiv-
ey closed last week, these gentlemen hav-
ing conducted them to the entire satisfact-
ton of all. Before the beginning of an
other term we must necessarily have a
new school house; and to accomplish
this, the trustees have beer laboring zeal
ously tor the past three weeks. In order
that this enterprise may be successfully
pushed forward, more money will have to
be raised. Many both in town and coun-
try have subscribed literally; but there are
others bually interested who have done
nothing Let all who feel an interest in
the enterprise come forward and throw
in their mite, and before time for the win
ter term of school we will have a house
that will accommodate the wants of the
people. Don't wait to be called upon but
come up voluntarily and lend helping
hand.
G. J. Riddle had his shop window

The Bourbon Saloon keepers are re-
quired to close their establishments at 9 o.
clock in the evening, and to keep close d
until 6 o'clock in the morning. This
regulation was found necessary to accom-
modate some of the old soakers who go to
bed early and get late. They don't keep
a very large stock on hand, and the early
birds gets all the best worms"

Marshal Logan says he takes no pride
in the fact that he arrested Edwards, the
jeweler thief, without assistance; but
thinks it hardly fair for the Rochester
deputy Marshal to appropriate share of
the glory, as he was not present when the
arrest was mad. Logan thinks er at deal
more about catching rascals than he does
about the reward in praise or money

How MUCH WE EAT AND DRINK.


About two and one half pounds, advoir-
dupois. dry, or comparatively dry food
per day, are required for a man in active
life--of this about three-quarters veget-
able and the rest animal At the end of
an entire year this amounts to over nine
hundred pounds; of water, or some sub

fluid, it is estimated that about eleven
hundred pounds per annum are required
and about eight hundred pounds of oxy-

pounds per annum, required from the ami
NAL, vegetable and mineral kingdom, to
supply the waste which is SO constantly
going on in the body of an adult man.

EAT SLOWLY.

Americans generally eat too fast, and
certainly should eat slowly, that they may
have time to more perfectly masticate
their food, and more intimately mix it
with the saliva, and also to give the gas
trio juice chance to mix with the food
as it is swallowed, and thus the sensation
of hunger will be appeased without the
individual taking more than is necessary
to duly nourish the body.

Puzzling a Doctor.

DIR. NJ, an army surgeon, was fond
of joke (unless perpetrated ut his
own expense and had, moreover, a
great contempt for citizen soldiers
who were more renowned for their
courage than their scholarship.
One day at mess, after the decanter
had performed sundry perambula-
tions of the table, Capt. s., a brave
and accomplished officer and a great
wag, remarked to the Doctor, who
had been somewhat severe in his re-
marks on the literary deficiencies of
some of the new officers:
CDR. NJ, are you acquainted with
Capt. G.?"
ayes, 1 know him WELL" replied
the Doctor, che is one Of the new
set. But what of him"
"Nothing in particular; I have
Just received a letter from him, and
1 will wager you dozen old port
that you cannot guess in six guesses
how he spells cat.
"Done! It's wager"
"Well, commence guessing" said
Capt. S.
"K, a, double t."
"No."
TX, a, double t, e."
"No."
*, a, t, e."
"No! Try again"
&C, a, double t, e"
mo, you have missed it again"
well then," returned the Doctor,
&c, a, double t."
mo, that's not the way; try again
its your last guess"
&C, a, G, h, t.
''No, that's not the way. You've
lost your wager"
"Weil," said the Doctor, with |
much petulance of manner, chow
does he spell it?'
"Why, he spells it C, a, t, replied
S., with the utmost gravity of man
ner, amid the roar of the mess; and
almost choking with rage the Doctor
sprang to his feet, exclaiming very
larshly.
"Capt. S., l am too old a man to be .
;rihed with IN this manner!" :
