A very pleasant reunion was enjoyed by the
relatives OF George Prater, at his home en- Fri
day last. The occasion was the near departure
OF Giles Prater and daughter for their Kansas
home, and the family wished to meet once more
in the home OF their childhood and recall the
happy days Of yore. Seven Of the eight chill
dren OF William Prater were present with their
children and grand. children, which, with other
relatives, made Q large and merry party. Yet
an undercurrent OF sadness would pass through
their hearts as their eye rested on fathers old
arm chair, and no mothers happy face kindling
with gladness at their coming. And elegant re-
past was served, and all fingered till the shades
OF evening reminded them that the time to say
good by had come.

to raise good corn if properly cultivated here.

There is an advertisement in our columns to
which we take much pleasure in referring our
readers, because we believe in it and can con-
scientiously and heartily recommend it. We re-
fer to Halls Hair Remover. We remember
many cases IN our midst OF old and mindle
dyed people who formerly wore gray hair, or
whose locks were thin and faded, but who now
have presentable head pieces, and with no little
pride announce to their friends that they have
not gray hair IN their heads. 1t is pardona-
BILE pride, and the world would be better off if
there was more OF it, for when the aged make
themselves attractive to others they are more
certain to win and retain the esteem and re-
spect to which a burthen of well spent years
entities them. Try Halls Hair Renewar, II age

Mrs. Randall, at the corner of Paw Paw and
LaGrave streets, had been the possesser of a
Cactus for eleven years, during which time it
had acquired proportions that made it very at
tractive. The plant was admired by all who
saw 1t, and was highly esteemed by it's owner
On Thursday night Of last week while Mrs. Il.
was at neighbors, some person entered onto
her premises and severed the plant below its
foliage, thus destroying it, The act was dast-
ardly in the extreme, and committed, no doubt,
in revenge, and to crafty some trivial or fan
ced wrong or slight; and betrayed q depth of
meanness much below that of-the sneak thief

place on Tuesday at the Glendale school house.
We occasionally meet the smiling counte-

the other day. While splitting wood with young

not think there was any Ill feelings between

thumb was nearly severed from the hand. 1t
was all an accident, but then it shows the folly
OF having words with any one.
