We were sincerely panied to read
in the papers of last Saturday an
announcement of the death of Col.
Robert MeNelly, the veteran pro-
prietor and editor of the Cleveland
Banner. He died at his residence
in Cleveland, last Friday, of pneu-
mOnia fever. From our young boy
hood we have known him. Rough
and angular in appearance, he was
as quiet and unpretending in his de
meanOr as he was sturdy and infex-
ible in his devotion TO every high
and honorable principle. He was a
noble specimen of a Woodworking,
patient, kindhearted, useful man.
Perhaps half a century of his life
has been spent in journalism, and
the newspaper fraternity has lost
one of It's most original, quaintest
and most successful members. He
died, as for many years he had liv-
cd, an exemplary and loyal commu-
meant of the Methodist Church, and |
if the consciousness of love for God |
and his fellow-man can smooth his |
way across the dark river, it is now |
we'll with our dear old friend. Pleas
ant recollectiOns Of "old Bob" Nc
Nelly will linger in our memory, till
we, too, are SUMMONED to that bourne
where the weary cease from labor
and the righteous find rest.

Grateful Women.

None receive so much benefit, and
none are so profoundly grateful and
show such an interest in recon-
mending Hop Bitters as women. 1t
is the only remedy peculiarly adj
apted to the many ills the sex is
almost universally subject to. Chills
and fever, indigestion or deranged
liver, constant or periodical sick
headaches, weakness in the back or
kidneys, pain in the shoulders and
different parts of the body, a feeling
of lassitude and dependency, are
readily removed by these Bitters.-

We had not time last week to call
attention to the advertisement of the
J. |. Case Threshing Machine Com
pany, Of Racine, Wis, of which our
friend, Hon. John Q. A. Remine, of
Greene county, is the agent. We
have heretofore referred to the high
position this company has won as
manufacturers Of meritorious agri-
cultural and industrial machinery.
Their Agitator Thrcsher, although
comparatively a new invention, has
won popular favor as embodying a
more correct and better mechanical
principle for doing the work requir-
cd Of it than any other threshing
machine made. And npw, at the be-
ginning of the second year of its in
Production, the public demand for it
greatly exceeds the expectations of
its manufacturers. Since steam is
so generally used, and the price of
lumber has advanced, there is a de
mand for portable saw mills. which
can be taken 10 the timber, instead
of hauling the timber TO the mills
Their portable saw mill is of this
and it is claimed for it
that it is the very best in the mark
ct. Upon the judgement of expo
rienced sawyers who have tested it
we do not hesitate to commend it as
Just the mill for our section. For
full particulars of implements and
manufactured by the ].
l. Case Company, address their
agent, J. q. A. Remine, MorristOwn,

child was just breathing, and in few
moments afterward respiration ceased
altogether. Every appearance of death
was visible; the face assumed the hue of
death, the iaw.dropped, limbs relaxed,
aud the eyes became glazed. The doc
tor examined the pulse, and listened for
the beating of the heart, but failing to
find any signs of life, pronounced the
child dead. 1t lay thus for fully ten
minutes, with the members of the family
grouped around the bed lamenting, as is
usual in such cases.
The little girls brother, who was Just
old enough to understand the situation,
and who seemed to be greatly grieved,
suddenly stepped from the circle, and
approached the supposed corpse,
leaned over and imprinted kiss
upon the pallid lips. The baby's mouth
was slightly open, and in kissing her the
boy blew his breath down her throat.
The little lips suddenly moved, the child
gave several sudden gasps, and then
commenced to breathe slowly and very
feebly at first, and then gradually
stronger, until respiration became almost
natural. Every one around was terri
bly, astonished at this unlooked-for com
ing back from the dead, and did not
seem to realize the fact until the child
had been breathing half an hour. 1t is
still alive and rapidly improving.-Loui

Borrowers.

What pests they arel Nothing is
sacred in their covetous eyes; they have
not particle Of regard for the rights of
property. They borrow everything.
With grocery store on nearly every
corner and q green grocer's in nearly
every square, with motion shops" &C.
cessible everywhere, those chronic bor-
rowers are continually sending in to
their neighbors on right and on left for
"a spoonful of lard" ''cup of four" a
"little yeast" "piece of tape, spool
of cotton" mo. 6 needle, aud so on
through very curious and long cata-
logue. These same people and many
others beside, make a regular practice of
borrowing your newspaper, generally
with the polite but meaningless qualifi-
cation that "thev would like to look at
it for few minutes, if you have done
with it," OF course they get it, whether
you have read it or not. And if it is
returned in good condition You are sx-
ceptionally lucky. Your pet magazine,
too, which you intend to have bound
some day, and desire to keep spotlessly
clean, is also in demand, and you are
considered lust as mean as mean can
be" il you refuse to trust it in other
hands than those Of your household. But
you must learn to say mo" to these
gentry, If you would protect your own
rights; nothing but decided snubbing
can rid you OF the nuisanccs.

Mount Vernon.

During the war, when the bloodiest
battles on the Potomac were being
fought, the Southern and Northern
troops fraternized on this spot, and not
a shot was fired or blow exchanged on
the domain of Mount Vernon. 1t was
neutral ground The soldiers exchanged
coffee and tobacco, and lolled amlcably
under the trees, then went back to shoot
ing and killing each other as soon as
they were off the sacred ground. The
most irreverent scoffer must walk with
reverence through the ancient frame
house in which SO much of our history is
embalmed. Hanging in the hall is the
great key of the Bastile, sent Washing
ton by Lafayette, and near it is the Gen
Washington himself and never disturbed.
OF all the memories of Mount Vernon,
none are more interesting than those of
Eleanor Curtis-poor Nelly who died at
twenty-five, and was her stepfather's
pet. In the room stands her harpsichord,
an immense machine, just the size of a
grand piano of the present day, with
two banks of keys like an organ. Beside
it are some ancient blue chairs embroi-
dered by her dead fingers century ago.
In the ground stands her rose bush, be-
side which, tradition says, she received
her first offer, and which the guileIess
and credulous of her sex are persuaded
to walk around six times to bring about
q similar event. One of the ingenities
of the regents of Mount Vernon was to
have magnificent Turkish rugs made to
resemble, as far as possible, the rag car
pets which were the floor covering when
Martha Washington lived, and for that
purpose scraps of the rag carpets were
sent abroad to be simulated nearly as
possible. And way up high, under the
roof, is little hip-roofed, dormer-win-
dowed rookery, which, after the death of
General Washington, his widow choose as
her own room, because it was from that
window only that a view could be had of
the brick tomb in which the mortal re-
mains of the General lay.

A PITIFUL PICTURE.

She asked the price of Crown Derby ware,
She looked at the Royal Worcester,
fill to purchase at least a set or two
The clerk thought he'd really induced her
She fingered long over Cloisonne,
She lovingly gazed at Satsuma;
In fact, all the rarest, costliest things
Were the ones which suited her humor.
The CLEAN of the beautiful jewel-like glass
Seemed to thrill her very soul,
And she lost her heart entirely in
A misshapen India bowl
Then she turned away with little sigh,
And murmured, 81 wish were richer"
And went to q counter. where she bought
A ffty-cent japanese pitcher
