Going t. School.

He helped her over the meadow brook,
While her feet she timidly set
Twin lilies they were!) on the messy stone
With the cooling ripples wet.
They passed the brook and it seemed to sing
With sweeter, merrier sound.
As the two with their schOOl-bOoks wan
dered 90
Der the cIover-laden ground.
o, little maiden! how fair you were
With your eyes of heavenly blue;
And the dimples played on your cheeks, as
play
On a rose the drops of dew.
As play on a rose the drops of dew,
When the breezes merrily blow !
Aud your lips they were tints of the ripen-
ing peach,
In the mornings rudy glow.
Bare feet; how they twinkled among the
grass
Did you know whenever you took
The path for school, that he waited for you
BY the will0w-shaded brooke
Since then the fragrant blossoms have come
TO the bnughs, an many time;
And bridge is over the brook that sings,
As of old, It's pleasant rhyme.
And two are straying upon the bank.
As pen these wandering words,
And they talk of the happy srhnol day time,
AS they watch the building birds.
But stream there is with grander flow,
With sterner, sadder song;
And lovers Will cross to q different school,
And help each other alongl

THE first annual meeting of the Wis

great discomfort of those who were
compelled to be out in it.
HOLIDAY goods are beginning to make
their appearance in the stores of our
merchants. It is wise to make an early
selection before the stocks have dwin-
died down.
IT is gratifying at this time for the
owner of an ulster overcoat to discover
that his wife has been using it all sum-

In CASE OF FIRE.-The season is Mt
hand when fires most prevail, and when
the precautionary hints of the late Dr..
Hall are most important to be needed.
They are as follows Keep doors and
windows of the structure closed until
the firemen come ; put a wet cloth over
the mouth, and get on all tours in a
smoky room; open the upper part of the
window to get the smoke out if in
theater, church OF school room, keep
cool !; descend ladders with q regular
step to prevent the vibration. If kero-
sene just purchased can be made to burn
in saucer by igniting with match,
throw it away. Put wire works or glass
shades over gaslights in show windows,
and in bedrooms with curtains; sprinkle
sand instead of sawdust on floors of oil
stores; keep shavings and kindling wood
away from steam boilers, and greasy
rags from lofts, eupboards, boxes, etc. :;
see that all stovepipes enter well in the
chimney, and that all lights and fires are
out before retiring or leaving the place
of business keep matches in metal or
earthen vessels, and out OF the reach of
children ; and provide piece of stout
rope, long enough to reach the ground,
in every chamber. Neither admit any
one if the house be on fire, except po-
lice, fremen and known neighbors nor
swing lighted gas brackets against the
vail ; nor leave small children in room
where there are matches or an open fire;
nor deposit ashes in wooden box, or on
the floor nor use light in examining the
gas meter. Never leave clothes near the
fireplace to dry; nor smoke or read in
bed by candle OF lamp light; nor put
kindling wood to dry on top Of the stove;
nor take light into closet nor pour
out liquor near an open light nor keep
burning OF other infammable fluids in
rooms where there is fire nor allow
smoking about barns or warehouses.

ADMINISTRATIONS advertising

ADVERTISE. udicious advertising in
a first class medium, as many of our
merchants are aware, pays; and this i'm
portant fact is recognized by every
shrewd business man in the community.
The following from the pen of wealthy
and successful merchant contains some
good wholesome truths advertising
attracts new customers in busy season,
and retains old ones during dull spell.
People like to be invited to trade with
you, and the advertising columns of To-
cal papers is the medium through which
every business man can ask his friends
to come and see him. No business man
is ever SO long in one location that adj
vertising is useless to him. New people
are constantly moving in, and even the
Oldest inhabitant will forget merchant
if he does not occasionally remind him
of his existence by an attractive adver-
tisement in his home paper

CHANGE OF FIRM.-As viii appear
from an announcement published else
where, the firm of J. ". Barnes 6 Co.
has given place to that of Villas & Barnes,
Messrs. Henry MendEk and Henry Null
holland, Jr., retiring, and Hon. Joseph
Villas assuming the head Of this long es-
tablished and weIl-known business firm.
The return of Mr.. Villas to this city is a
matter of congratulation to every one.
Since his first advent in the community
he has been identified with every move
ment to advance the prosperity Of the
city, always placing his own broad shout
der to che wheel while calling upon 9TH
ers to follow his example, and much Of
the progress of the city during the past
ten years is indebted for its origin to the
pluck, perseverance and liberality of this
gentleman. To have his interests again
identified with those of the people here
is to enlist the sympathies and the sub
stantial aid of one who has, can, and will
do much to advance the prosperity of
the city, and we for one do not desire to
disguise the sincere pleasure derived
from the fact of his return among US.
While he will claim New York City as
his principal place of residence, the fact
that he has consented to assume posi-
ton at the head of one of our largest
mercantile establishments is, we hope,
only a preliminary step toward making
Manitowoc his permanent home. So
may it be

THE GREAT EXPOSITION.

We have received from the publishers,
Messrs. Hubbard Bros, of Philadelphia,
advance sheets of forthcoming volume,
which will greatly interest every Ameri-
can. It is entitled sThe Centennial
Exposition Described and Illustrated,
and is complete history and pictorial
representation of this grandest worlds
fair the world has ever known. The ex-
hlbits o. the various nations are taken
up In the order of their prominence,
commencing with the United States, the
most notable and characteristic of whose
exhibits are carefully noticed, whether
III the Main Building, Machinery Hall,
Agricultural Hall, Government Building,
Memorial Hall, OF in the numerous
smaller structures erected all through
the ground by American exhibitors. In
the same manner is treated Great Britain
and her Colonies, Germany, France.
Russia and Brazil, minor European
States, South American republics, Afri-
ca, Asia, so that nothing that is of strik-
ing and prominent interest is overlook
ed. Suitable space is devoted to de-
scription of the different State Buildings
and of the interesting ceremonies of the
great State days, celebrating the indivi-
dual prosperity of the original thirteen
States, and also of the Memorable Par
AIDES and Anniversaries which have been
held in Philadelphia by the different Or
carnations, societies, ETC., in honor Of
| the Centennial commemoration of our
national independence. Al interesting
account is given of the remarkable Live
Stock Exhibition biographies Of the
prominent officials who have conducted
this great enterprise with distinguished
ability; particulars of the awards grant
ed to exhibitors the superb and endur-
ing medals commemorative thereof, and
to complete this memorial volume, a
graphic delineation of the imposing clos
ing ceremonies of the Exhibition.
1t has been prepared from material
gathered on the grounds, by the most
careful, patient and laborious research,
and from official sources, and though it
does not claim, as some do, to be by Of
fetal authority, it commands confidence
thereby, Gen. Hawley having announc-
ed that no book has any right to such
a claim. But the interest and value of
the book lie largely in it's profuse and
brilliant illustrations. In this multitude
of finely executed engravings, the main
features Of the Exhibition are wildly
| impressed on the mind of the reader in
a way that words cannot do. It is next
| thing to seeing the great Worlds Fair.
We advise our readers to examine
the book carefully should they have all
opportunity. We presume the publish
ers want agents in this vicinity, and we
hope some of our energetic young men
will improve what seems to us an extra
ordinary opportunity to favor our citi-
zens and profit handsomely by it.
