/. BUCKINGHAM CORRESPONDENCE

No snow yet.
A friend in Indiana writes us, that tie
snow there is overa foot deep.
Last week Recorder says Prof. Brown
called upon him, being upon his way to
Bismarck and the Buckingham schools;
Iusinuatiug that Mr.. Brown was after US
"full tilt" We saw Mr. Brown. and had
a short talk with him and the subject we
presume Recorder is worried SO about,
was never mentioned.
Last week we made Grundy Centre,
Holland, Reinbeck and Mr. Albert Ja-
qua's school in Grant, No. 5, all y visit.
We think Grundy Centre has grown about
one third since we saw it last fall. When
there we met several old acquaintancles,
among them was 7 S. Noll, formerly of
Traer. Mr. Noll is working up good
practice in law; he has been elected JUS
tice of the peace, receives his share OF
public patronage and now stands in the
front ranks of the Grundy County law
ycrs.
Morrison, the station between Reinbcck
and Grundy is composed of about 10 or II
houses.
Reinbcck has done we'll for its age; it
has grown very rapidly.
While at r einbeck we took general
view of the town and was much pleased
with it. Among our acquaintances here
was A. " Benedict, W. W. Blanchard.
Slippey and Dawson, William Phelp, and
several others from the country. From
here we pushed out in the country about
two miles where we lodged for the night
and visited Mr.. A. Jaqua's school. We
were much pleased with the way he con-
Quoted his school and the order he kept.
J. P. Dinsdale and James Dinsdale will
have public sale of fine blooded stock
before long
Mr.. D. Daniels and his brother, W. A.
Daniels. of this township, left for Water
loo las. Friday where they intend to visit
their brother Henry The Daniel boys
alllived in this county about twenty years
ago, and are all fine fellows.
DOG HUNTING
A more vile pest could not be spread
through the country than dogs running at
large. This is becoming general COM
plant in this vicinity The dogs are
thick as grasshorpers and are regularly
securing the woods in the daytime and
chasing the farmers stock at night. Not
quicker could the farmers mind be "rais-
ed" than to awake in the night and hear
his cattle, thogs or horses, being chased
by these animals.
Farmers are patient, but not very long
in that line, so resolution was set 10 free
the country from these pests, and pretty
good work has been done. Several have
been laid aside and another was about to-
leap from this world, when the shot lie
received was not sufficient, and he found
his way home Not long was he there
when his master started back on his trail
and thinking he had reached the end he
accused q young man of shooting him.
ThiY he could not easily prove and when
he found out that he could not scare any
one, he gradaally quieted down. Then
the young man acknowledged he had shot
the dog and was willing to make It all
right, which he did, and thus another dog
row was ended withoutIaDy trouble. We
would advise all who have good dogs to

Influence of Newspapers Upon
Children.

A school teacher who had been
engaged long time in his profes
sion, and witnessed the influence of
newspaper upon the minds of
family and children, writes as fol
lews:---"I have found it to be uni.
yersal fact, without exception, that
scholars of both sexes and all ages,
who have access to newspapers at
home, when compared with those
who have not, are,--
/. Better readers, excellent in pro-
nunciation, and consequently read
more understandingly.
2. They are better spoilers, and
define words with ease and accuracy.
3. They obtain practical knCwl-
edge OF geography in about half the
time it requires of others, as the
newspapers have made them &C
quaintcd with the location OF impor
tant places, Of nations, their govern
ment and doings on the globe.
a. They are better grammarians,
for having become SO familiar with
every variety OF style IN the news
paper, from the commonplaced adj
vertisement to the finished and class
ical Grafton of the statesman, they
more readily comprehend the mean
ing of the text, and consequently
analyze its construction with accu-
racy.
8. Those young men who have for
years been readers of newspapers
are always taking the lead in debat-
ing societies, exhibiting a more ex-
tensive knowledge on greater vari-
ety of subjects and expressing their
views with greater fuency, clearness
and correctness.

An Astonishing Fact.

A large proportion of the American
people are to-day dying from the effects
of Dyspepsia or diSordered liz er. The
result of these diseases upcn the masses
of intelligent and valuable people is
most alarming, making life actually a
burden instead of a pleasant existence
of enjoyment aud usefulness as it ought
to be. There is no good reason for this,
if you will only throw aside prejudice
and skeptlcIsm, take the advice OF drug
gists aud your friends, and try one
bottle of Green's August Flower. Your
speedy relief is certain. Millions of
bottles of this medicine have been given
away to try its virtues, with satisfac-
tory results in every case. You can
buy sample bottle for 10 cents to try,
three doses will relieve the worst ease.

That love is stronger than hate,
kindness or seliishness, forgiveness
than vindictiveness, need not be
questioned. But the love must be
genuine, not counterfeit; the kind
ness must be uLfeigned; the forgive
ness must be from the heart; and
with the rcgenerate only this can be.
To acquire more and more OF this
power should be the serious aim OF
all good people; and TO help in the
acquisition Of 1t, we read and ponder
the Sermon on the Mount. 1t tells
what they must try to become. By
the study of ideal principle, motive
are purified, hopes are sustained,
and bright vistas into better state
of the world are kept open.
Two well known youths, brought up
