Messrs. Rodenfels & Ashbrook have been
adding more new machinery to their mill,
and are determined to have the leading
mill in this section of Ohio. OF course
their expenses are heavy, and they should
not only receive the patronage of our citi-
zens but we should assist them in extend
ing their trade. 1t is the best help our
business men have, as it draws more trade
to Somerset than any thing else We have.
They are always ready to pay the highest
market price for wheat, and many Of our
farmers sell their grain here and also buy
their goods, who would doubtless go else
where if it were not for the ready market
offered at the Somerset mill. Our business
men should give the matter their attention.

preparation of Mr.. Raush for burial. We
know he will deal as tenderly. carefully
and respectfully with the dead as though
they were living, and this knowledge must
even be a comfort to surviving friends.
Being present and assisting him in a recent
case, we felt that he was governed by the
Golden Rule, "Do unto others as you would
that men should do unto you" For bis
skillful service and gentlemanly conduct
on that occasion we shall always hold him
in respect, and think him deserving of this
notice, that our citizens may know to whom
to go in their time of trouble and need.

Surprised Party.

On Saturday evening. June 7th, a party
met at the residence of Isaac Weaver
which took him and his family by sur
prise, and if We mistake not, surprised
many of the assembly. 1t happened that
some Of his friends ascertained that it was
the twentieth anniversary of his mar
riage. Mrs. Weaver WAS undoubtedly the
most surprised of all the party. About 9
of her husband, who was down town and
did not return home until 10 o'clock, the
raid was made on her. Some dozen or
more stalwart men accompanied by ladies,
made their sudden debut, and without any
preliminary explanation all hands, or rath-
er all lips commenced kissing the good
lady. No time was given her for remon-
STRANGE, and she had but to yield and sub
nit like a martyr to the infiiction, whether
sweet or otherwise she is best able to
Judge. Mr.. Weaver on his return found
some sixty unipvited guests at his home,
whom he made welcome in his own genial
way, but learning the advantage that had
been taken of his spouse in his absence he
declared he would get even with his male
friends some time, aad repay them on the
lips of their wives and sweet. hearts in the
same coin. The ladies of the party took
possession of the kitchen, turning Mrs
Weaver out of that sanctum of household
affairs, and they soon had an elegant cola,
,ion prepared and which they busted them
selves in serving to the guests especially
those OF the masculine gender-who, after
being fully and bountifully supplied with
the choicest Of cakes, meats and fruits o.
all kinds, seemed very much tempered
down from their starting point. Suffice i
to say it was one of those unexpected
raids, a perfect surprise, and one which
made glad hearts in the family Of the Wis
tied as well az in those of the visitors.
