. Girl, mad3 it warm for them IN the big
purse OF the State fair and took the see
oud money. Had there not been al owl
dent collision among the drivers Of the
other horses TO box her up she might
have done stiil better. As it was she did
more honest trottiug than any other
horse on the ground.
Boxes have been placed in the vesti-
buIc, 9th Baptist church to receive the
contributions for current expenses. The
committee are this year Try ing the exper-
/ lmeut of the so called envelope sys-
I tcm,' which has heretofore been found
to work 50 admirably wherever 1t has
I been tried The subscriptions or CON
lHbutions for current expenses, are ae-
cording TO this plan, placed at least as
often rs once a month in the boxes, to
which the treasurer alone has the key.
I This plan has the merit Of keeping all
seals free, so that every one may feel AT
home aud welcome in the Lords house,
while il is usually very successful in
securing the necessary funds with un
wunled ease aud convenience 10 all con-
eerncd.

A correspondent wishes to know ii
the principal granger Of this town has
adopted the plan Of running horse-rakc
through his corn in September or was it
done recently, merely by way Of expert
ment. 1t was certainly attended with
pleasing results.
Would 1t not be well, Mr.. Editor, to
mention in the gentlest manner possible
that the law requires the highway sur
veyors to clear the road Of stones once a
month. Such practice would render
the rides much pIeasanter in the vicinity
Of Factory Point.
