Our CITY OF THE DEAD.-The
Lancaster cemetery is visited each
Sunday BY the relatives and friends OF
those whose bones lie at rest under
the green sod. This is one of the
most beautiful grave-yards in the
State, and is kept in fine order, many
of the graves being designated by
handsome and costly designs in mar
Bile granite and stone work. And as
We view the beautiful graves here one
is reminded that Nature is sent to
teach us by her Spring and Summer,
Autumn and Winter parallels, and
every leaf on every tree, with its bud
of future growth hid behind it, be-
comes q solemn text, warning US to
secure, while the leaf is yet green,
the germ that shall live when the frost
of death has destroyed both fruit and
flower"

.B"A letter from Esq. Sneclode
informs us that the Spring business
ia Cassville has been lively, consider
ing the hard times. Cassville has not
lost hopes of being yet railroad
center. Turkey river is an attrae-
tive point and Cassville is on the
avenae of any railroad line from the
East that will connect with that rich
region. The raging Mississippi don't
rage as much as it did, being on the
decline. 1t is said that another fer.
ry-boat war will futter the minds Of
Cassvilians, will fill the pockets of
several attorneys and fleece some
body. Cassville proposes to be out
donc by no town in Grant in her de-
votion to the principals laid down in
the Declaration of independence, and
will celebrate the National Anniver-
ssry day in becoming and patriotic
manner. The programme of exer-
cies will be read in another column,

His First Shirt.

A countryman bought a shirt in Raleigh, N. C., which was the first white one he had ever owned The next Sunday he was to be married, and that was the import ant occasion that had melted him to the purchase. The shirt had a nice starched bosom, and was op- en in the back-a style that was new to it's possessor. After care ful study he put iton with the opening in front, concluding that the stiff bosom was intended as a kind of shoulder brace to make his stand erect. Thus dressed, he met him bride at the church door; but her knowledge was grea- CT than his about shirts, and she made him go home and reverse the garment before she would al low the ceremony to proceed.

An Idyle of a Stone Jug.

Mrs. Smith, who lives on Olive Street, St. Louis, is troubled with cold feet, as is also Mir. Smith, and not for the world could we reveal the number of the Smiths house not that any such little personal peculiarity is dIsgraceful, but, be- cause, on general principles, the domestic circle should not be ruth lessly in vaded. Having cold feet, |,
 Mrs. Smith devised remedy, and resolved, when the recent frigid spell O weather came on, that she and her lold should dream the happy hours of night away re- gardIess of the temperature. She got a two gallon jug and filled 1t with warm water and tucked it in at the foot of the bed, It proved on admirable thing, and neither Mrs. Smith nor Mir. Smith were troubled with cold feet several nights. In fact all would proba- bly, have gone well to the end, had it not been for the miserable Ob- tuseness of the servant girl. The servent girl had never become fully acquainted with the proper ties of steam, and one day last week she heated the water too much. The cork of the jug was driven in as far as it would go; then the jug was set upon the stove, and when the water began to boil the fOOt-Warmer was car ried up stairs and placed beneath the clothes at the end Ot the bed in which MT. and Mrs. Smith were already ensconced. The smiths, husband and wife, cud- died their feet against the jug and
 were happy-it was so warm and the bed was so cold. Sweet sleep was just about casting it's mantle O'er the couple, so to speak, when there came suddenly from the foot of the bed a report like that of a shot gun, and Mrs. Smith, hit with awful force by the cork of the jug, leaped screaming to the floor, shrieking for the police. AL most at the same instant Smith
 himself was nearly killed. A volume of hot water struck him fairly; then, raking up his back, literally plOwed a scalding furrOw through the skin. His yells as he bounded from bed were fear
 flll, and parting squirt from the jug, which left his left leg par
 boiled, brought forth even more
 hIdeOuS sounds. The Smiths ca pered around the room in con- sternatiOn and agony until the girl came running in with lamp. and surveyed the ruin she had wrought by getting up to much steam in ajug. Finally the Smiths retired again, all bound up in cot ton batting and sweet oil, but the jug was smashed by Smith in this fierce wrath, and since the night of the catastrophe, cold feet have been made a speciality in that family.
