She Come.

Less than two years ago a young
gentleman of this county found the
following letter on the show case Of
a next door merchant:
Mr.. II presume you will be
quite surprised on receiving this,
but have heard enough about you
to know that you will not think Inc
so dreadfully bad. But to tell the
truth without too much beating
around the bush l am just dying
for some one to love, and am so
lonely here l find myself really so
ennuied at times that / am wiling
to do something a little desperate
for the sake of your acquaintance
more extensive. Now ii you are
willing to take pity on poor me
place yourself next Saturday at 3
O'Clock precisely in your store door;
l will pass and bow. then if you are
pleased with my appearance, please
follow up the acquaintance. Don't
tell-and burn this. Yours,
GUESS.
To say that the young man was
puffed would fall far short of por
traying his elatedness. The sec
onds seemed as minutes and the
hours crept by like days, but at the
appointed time we see him dressed,
his shoes shining like mirrors, and
nothing liking in his make up to at
tract the admiration of the pretty,
o hush, Golly, she's a sumner, you
bet your life. l can tell an intelh-
gent lady when l can read their
imposition. There she comes
as he imagined he heard the
rustic of dry goods outside the
door. He braced himself up grace
fully against the door facing, pulled
his hat down, as is common, little
further over his eye brews, COM
menced tinkering with his mus
tache, and a fickering smile illumi
mated his phiz, as he waited the
nearer approach of the lady whose
features he so much desired to look
into. But, o my! imagine the
deep heart sting when it was per-
ceivable that she had so exhausted
herself to pass the door promptly
at the time mentioned, that on top
her Uranium had assumed the ap
pearance of sofa filling, and so dark
was her face that the young man
didn't please to follow up the &C
ladaintance worth a cent, but kinder
doubled up like 3 t."

The elderberry grows wild in
this part of the country and
should be cultivated on every
farm. The berry when dried
makes a wholesome pie, and
jelly and wine made from the
fresh berry are very medical.
Jelly made of this fruit should
be in every family where it can
be made, not only for table use
but for stopping a cough. A
teaspoouful of this jelly dis
solved in a glass of pretty warm
water, and drank just before re-
firing at night will give a peace
full rest often, when otherwise
coughing greater part of the
night would have followed in
stead. For wine crush the ber-
ries, and to every two gallons of
berries and one gallon of water
in which have dissolved two
pounds of good sugar. Let all
ferment together for a couple of
days, then draw off clear, put in
a barrel leaving the bung out
until fermentation ceases alto

midwinter it will be fit to drink.

Book FARMING The Ohio
Farmer gives an account of a
graduate and tutor in Hudson
College who bought an old worn
out clay farm which the neigh
bors said was worth nothing,
and would produce neither fruit
nor grain, nor anything else
that would pay. Thorough
drainage, a judicious saving and
application of home and COM
mercial manures and judieious
cultivation converted these old
lands into productive fields.
He has lately produced the best
crops of wheat, potatoes and
apples made in these townships,
and on one of his undetermined
fields he made more than fifty
bushels of wheat to the acre.
