It is Not Generally Known

That the shortest possible route between the East
and Great West is through St. Louis, over the ST
Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Line.
This road has gained surprising Importance by
reason of immense expenditures in the last two
years. of over two million dollars, besides earnings,
in improvements of roadway, in relaying their
line with best quality of new steel and iron rails,
on broad new ties and by substituting for ordinary
new reclining chair coaches elegantly carpeted
and fitted, with dressing rooms with toilet conyen-
fences for ladies, gentlemen and families travelling
with children igithOut any extra charge. This line
runs six fast Express trains between the Missis-
sippi and the Missouri Rivers, two more than any
other road, and connects with all the great Land
Grant Roads in the West, and has adopted all mod
ern appliances for comfort, speed and safeguards
against accidents, including night and day watch
men, who inspect the read before and after the
passage of each train to see that everything is in
order. We recommend those contemplating trip
West to take the St. Louis, Kansas City and North
ern Short Line, it being the only line running
through cars between st. Louis and Omaha, and
for tickets over this excellent line refer our
readers to any ticket agent selling through tickets
to the West. For map, circulars and time tables
address either Geo. D. Teller, Buffalo, n. Y; or
P B. Groat st Louis, Mo-, either of whom win
furish any information desired.

" Now is the Winter of Our Discon.
tent made Glorious
by the arrival OF beautiful spring,
with its balmy days, warm showers,
green fields and budding trees. But
with all this beauty and brightness
comes work. The gardens must be
made, lawns cleared up, house,
cleaning, painting, papering, white
washing, &C., to be done. For as
Nature awakens to new life and puts
on fresh livery, so we, naturally,
initiate her in this; and what more
fitting example could we follow than
hers
Now, such being the case, it is
matter of the greatest Importance to
know how best to do this, and where
to procure the necessary materials Of
the best quality, and at the same
time at the least cost. That "the
best is the cheapest in the end,' is
fact accepted and acknowledged by
all. First it is the best at the begin
ming, lasts longer, costs no more for
the labor to apply than poor mate
rials, and lastly, there is very little
difference in the first cost.
lam speaking now Of paints in
particular. Do you want to paint
white? There is no better or cheap
er made than the Phoenix Brand of
Eckstein Hills & Co., for which l
am special agent,
1t has now been tried in this city
and county for ten years, and never
for once, has it failed to give entire
satisfaction. And l do firmly be-
lieve and assert there is no better
lead made. For colored paints, for
cottages, &C., We have our own
colored paints, which, for durability
and cheapness, far excel all liquid or
chemical paints. They never fade or
peel, and retain their lustre for years.
Zinc Paint, Graining Colors, Var.
nishes, and Brushes to use them, al
ways on hand, of the best quality,
and at the lowest price. So much
for paints.
Now, after painting, the smoky
walls must be papered and decorated;
whitewash wont do, it rubs of, and
soon looks as bad as ever. have the
largest and best variety of Wall Pa
per ever brought to this city, which
must be sold at the lowest prices.
Now this is saying good deal, but if
you think of papering, don't buy un-
til you look at my samples, and you
will be convinced that this statement
is true. But doyou ask where is this
place +? Where are such bargains to
be had ? And where only are the
best goods keptP Why Where

Harts Minstrels.-By bills we perceive
that this accomplished troupe will give an en-
tertainment at Opera Hall, on Monday night
next. The Terra Haute Journal of April 18th,
speaking Of their performance says:
The Opera House was well filled on Satur-
day evening to witness the performance of
Harris Minstrels, and the verdict Of all was
that as a company they are superior to any
that have ever appeared in this city. The
ouartette is far ahead Of anything usually
travelling with a minstrel troupe, and the
dancing Of Brown and Mills and Master Nor
ton was first class.

Sad Case-PraisworthY Action of
the Grangers.-Sylvester Robinson, far
mer, residing about three miles below town
on the east side of the river, has been afflicted
for several months with a very sick family,
and so great was the tax upon his time that
his spring work remained undone-his fields
unplowed and his crops implanted. These
facts coming to the knowledge of his brethren
Of Fort Stephenson Grange, word was sent to
the brethren, and a meeting convened on
Monday, when it was determined to turn out
and do up his work for him. Accordingly
early on Tuesday morning team after team
passed through town on their way to his
residence, until thirty teams and fifty men
were assembled. When they reached his
house they learned the sad news that his wife
had breathed her last on Monday night about
ten o'clock, and that his two children, suffer-
inc from the same disease, could hardly re-
cover.
soon tbe pIows were breaking up the soil and
the drags pulverizing and reducing it to shape,
The markers were performing their duty, and
the planters following In their wake, until the
whole Of three fields, comprising thlrty-tWo
acres, were pIowed and planted. The maxim
sInany hands make light work. was scarcely
true in this case, but they made rapid work
and when they were done, they had the salts
faction of knowing they had also performed q
J good and glorious work. Such deed as that
is worthy Of ali praise, and the Grange must
be allowed to be noble institution when it
developes feeling 80 humane. It is q kind
Of practical Christianity which We cannot
have too much Of, Whenthere are cases 20 call
forth the exercise Of fraternal virtues. Honor

That it is not everyone who can appreciate
the peculiarities associated with Sunday boat
ing was last Sabbath clearly demonstrated, on
our river. Three young fellows, named re-
spectively Cobel, Hime and Cohn, were two
miles down the river, during the afternoon,
and having greater appreciation for the in
dulgencs Of aquatic recreation than the OBJ
servance of the tenth commandment, availed
themselves of an old fishing boat capable of
seating tloo conveniently, and proceeded to
migrate across the river. The excessive cargo
bringing the sides of the "little nut shell" so
evenly balanced that almost wink of the eye
would produce sufficient vibration to tempt
an intrusion of "Father Neptune" it is almost
a miracle how they successfully gained the
center of the stream before realizing fully the
pleasure of water sport. But here they did,
for suddenly it became water inside and wa
ter outside of both boat and crew, and the
boys making desperate effort to "hold by the
ship to the last" became subject toa dampning
of their aquatic ardor that seriously imperilled
their future prospects of renewing the expert
ment. Cobel, however, could swin-the only
one of the three-and having struck out to
shore suddenly became horror stricken to be-
hold the continued struggling of his comrades
Doffing his clothing he again plunged into the
water and nobly made for the rescue. Hime
and Cohn still holding to the craft, and vocif-
erously pleading for the interposition of mu-
nifcent Providence, were by this time becom-
ing exhausted, but with noble efforts the gal
liant Cobel was ultimately successful in pro-
pelling the ill-fated pair, who were sticking to
the craft like barnicles, safely to shore. The
return trip was deferred lin the absence of
the dry cothes) and the fisherman once more
padded his own canoe" home, leaving the
boys to follow his example, which We under
stand thoy have an exceptional desire to do
for the future-not only on Sundays, but sew
en- successive days to the week for the year
round.

Appeal of the Ladies'.

We make the following appeal, with the earnest
prayer that it may reach many hearts and do them
good.
Men of Fremont, where do you stand to-day?
Have you come out boldly on the side of right?
You see the hand of God in all the workings of
this Temperance movement. Are you praying,
working, and giving all the aid in your power to
stay the tide of evil which threatens to Overwhelm
us? Are you encouraging other? Are You interes-
ted heart and soul in the cause Of God and human
ity? If not, we entreat you to stop and Think
"Choose you this day whom you will serve" You
may have been trying to persuade yourselves that
you arc standing on neutral ground, but you must
have discovered that there is neutral point inre
gard TO this question; and if there were is that the
place for noble, courageous, Whole-sOuled man?
lie that is not for us is against us. So far as you
do not exert all your influence in behalf of temper
ance Just so far you are encouraging and upholding
all the evils that are caused by the sale and use of
intoxicating drinks. How can you stand back?
We are trying to win men from the bondage of sin
to the glorious liberty of the gospel of Christ-we
say it humbly, for we do nothing of ourselves. We
ask no rest; we look for pay except the apprOv-
ing smile of the Master. il our strength gives out
and you miss from tile field for time, be assur-
ed we are only resting aTmOr, and shall 90 on
with renewed energy. But we ask your sympathy.
WedO ask that you will unfold your arms raise your
voices and 'fquit you Ike men," coming nObly to
the help of the Lord against the mighty" Then
viii God bless you and yours, and peace and pros
periy viii take up their abode in this beautiful
city. LADIES OF THE LEAGUE.
