O'clock Monday evening-the light
ming flashes, the thunders boom and
reverberate, grand and sublime, and
how gloriously it rains cooling the at
mosphere and refreshing the pached
earth. While nothing was suffering
on account OF drought, corn, potatoes
vegetables and the hay grasses will
grow and enlarge and mature with
increased vigOr. The rain continues
from p. m. until midnight.

- Last Saturday little George, son
Of a. H. ScOvill, Nemaha City, was
kicked by q horse. He received the
blow in the stomach and was rendered
unconscious for several minutes, but
finally recovered, and apparently is
not much injured. Had he been few
feet of instead Of right up against the
horse's legs he would probably been
killed. Boys may learn from this
that when they go out to get kicked
the best way is to go boldly up and
take hold of the horses hind legs.

the stars, a thousand!" replied her

Nay" she whispered, leaning closer
TO him, and nesting her head upon his

And how much for a diamond pin

"Well, about $780,"
''Three hundredm take it, will they?"
"Yes.n
Thanks" said the boy as he backed
out. He sat down with his back to the

gin of one of his papers, and presently

"Three hundred for the pin, and sixty
more for the watch-that's three hun
