says: "We understand that our county is
overrun with a set of mon engaged in sell
ing groceries by sample. From the price
Mt which they are disposing of them there
is evidently a screw loose somewhere.
Those who remember the cloth and light
ing-rod peddlers, will be apt to give these
chaps a wide berth, no matter how smooth
they may talk. 1t is n safe rule to buy OF
your own home merchant. You thusk
Just what you are getting, and If there is
anything wrong you have responsible
party within reach to make it right"

Small POx at HOyts COrners.-While
at Weston on Wednesday evening we
learned from DR.. SPENCER, that he had re.
ceived word from Hoyts Corners, this coun-
ty, that day, that there were twenty-one
cases of small pox there, with tw o deaths
from the disease on Tuesday, and many
others had been exposed. No further par
ticuIArs could be obtained.

A man whom DIR. Chalmers engaged to
manage a disorderly Sunday school kept
his eyes wide open during prayer, and
when one boy thrust pin into another he
marched up the aisle, still praying, cufEed
that boys ears and went back, praying all
the way. After that he was master Of the
situation, for the boys thought that man
who could watch and pray like that could
not be put down.

The Model School BOOk.-Our atten.
tion was called some time ago to what is
known as the "Model" school readers, pub
liHhed by GEO. SHERWOOD & Co., Chicago.
The agent Mr.. J. J. HTNCHEY, a teacher Of
"a years experience, WAS here for the pur-
pose OF introducing the work in our schools
but supposing him, like other agents, inter
ested in The work to the extent that ho had
engaged in it for livelihood, VIC said
nothing about the work, believing our
school authorities and teachers who had a
practical knowledge of such matters were
iiully competent to judgs Of the m erits of
he book. We heard nothing further con-
cerning these book until visiting a neigh
bor short time since, when the first qnes-
ton asked by the children was, Have you
seen my new school book ?" This was fol.
lowed by the book being brought forth and
the beauties OF its chromD illustrations
eagerly pointed out. Believing that a book
would be beneficial in the schools that cre-
ated tins amount OF interest among the
children, led us to make inquiry, and We
learn that our Board of Education has
sanctioned the use OF the First reader
which has subsequently created 30 mucI
interest that the scholars to some extent
have supplied themselves with the Sscont
and Thirl parts. We also learn from tho
teachers in the Second Primary department
that the scholars have never before made
such rapid pro yress in their studies.
We are remin led by this that our Legis
lature some three or four years ago held a
lengthy discussion over resolution to pre-
vent the change OF text books oftener thar
three years, in which some very stron.
points were brought out in favor of chang
ing as often as the inte .est of the scholar
seemed to demand it. II we remember
correctly the resolution failed to pass. leav
ing the matter to the discretion of Board
of Education.

The New Yankee Doodle.

The New Yankee Doodle.
Yankee Doodle came TO town,
On his Centenary,
Opened wide his eyes 10 see
How the times do vary;
TeleRraphs In the air,
Horse cars roll around ron,
Steam engines carry you of,
And all things do asiound you.
Yankee Doodle took car,
Thought he was goner,
Toek the Elevated Rosd,
Aud stopped at every corner;
"Pesk take me II I don1
Think it's awful risky,
Travlin' In the air like this,
Though 1t makes you risky"
Yankee Doodle saw a girl,
Wearing Of a pull-baok
"Darn my buttons " that amt
Better than mule back
Corn stalks twist her hair,
Ribbons run around her,
Striped stockings end her up.
Wonder whero they found herr
Yankee Doodle went to church,
Heard a woman preacher
"Mnlly Pitcher prefer
To any such bold creature;
False hair on her head
How she'll roar and holler
But she chawed her husband up,
shilln' or n dollar"

SIGNS OF SPRING.

Now doth the little onion
Poke up it's little head,
And the restless little radish
Stretch In his little bed.
The sunish and the minnows
Wag their shiny tails,
While the ebipmunk and the robin
AdOTn the feDces' rails.
The blossom by the hedge side,
And on the loafer's nose,
Tells of the coming spring time,
Aud blooming Of the rose.

The fine rain on May Sth and 9th was
thankfully received. Ii seemed to give
new life to the growing crops, and made
everything look lively. Many of our citi-
Zens have gone to the
CENTENNIAL,
particularly the boys of the upper class1
who want to become stump speakers, and
some of them think when they hear the
opening address they can do it up brown,
and when they get back to Cecil for the
campaign, next Fall, they mean to ego
for Blaine The
IMPROVEMENTS
of our town still 60 on and the county
fathers seem to have caught the spirit from
this place, for we have boat here now
unloading five thousand bushels of oyster
shells. They are to be pat in the bad
places on the roads. and the hill known as
Long Creek hill, that has been a terror to
travellers between here and Elkton, has
been graded, and more done for the same
amount of money than has been done for
some time, for it has been even dangerous
to travel for some time, and the County
Commissioners have our thanks for what
they have done for the public. The
took place on May list, and the old Board
was reelected. There couldn't have been
made better choice, as there is to be part
of a new law to be carried out and lookup
to be built, so that when the boys get
wrong, they will find place to repent at
their leisure. The
of the town are well lighted and every
thing made safe, with police to guard
yonr property while you sleep. Where is
the town that can beat us? The
ICE CREAM SALOON
is nearly finished, and will be fitted up in
style by J. f. Layman. The temperance
folks will then have place to pass their
leisure time and have chat with their
friends. 1t is to be called the Centennial
Saloon. The
NEXT THING
that looks SO charming in town and makes
everything lively is the ladies. On our
streets, on last Sabbath. they made a grand
display with their new bonnetS, Spring
feathers and pullbacks on.
REV. MIR. NEWMAN
preached powerful sermons on Sabbath
morning and evening last, in the NJ. f.
Church, to two of the largest congrega-
tions that has been in the church for ten
years. The Presbyterian Church was well
filled, also, and Rev. Mr.. Mallory was very
able in his discourse; SO this people needn't
fail i'll well doing if they heed the warning
given them. y MAN ABOUT Town.
