MY VISIT.

My mind was made up and hastily gath
ering together q few things and taking my
valise in hand l soon found myself at the
railway station and aboard the cars bound
for visit to my newly married friends from
whom | had just received news that they
had just secured a cottage and lad fixed up
quite home-nest, and by the last mail
they had so kindly remembered their old
bachelor friend as to write letter asking me
to make them visit. / smiled to myself
many times as / would recall the past, and
how very unsophisticated they mast be and
how awkward they must appear as host and
hostess, but soon the brakeman calls out
"Maretta" and as | had sent no letter to
herald my coming, | set out alone for
street and in less time than | have been
talking to you | was being received by
both Fred aud his little treasure of wife,
who were just preparing to sit down to tea
in the dearest cosiest, little dining room
twas ever my fortune to enter. A chair was
soon placed for their visitor and friend, and
surely no one will take offense when | say
was never so elegantly entertained in my
lile-and again, no one must laugh when
acknowledge | was mentally resolving to
hunt out Il companion to sit opposite me at
the table and to prepare and arrange such
delicacies and tempting It'd bits, as | there
enjoyed, for Myra assures me she supern-
tends and directs every thing herself, and
surely every thing was beyond compare,
and to be an invited guest in that house
was indeed an inestimabe treat. 1t is in the
omestc affairs of every day lite, that re-
gain the best insight inta true character.
! confided in my friends and asked them to
help me ''set up an establishment like I'M
TO theirs, which seemed to me little less than
an enchanted bower, even now as visions OF
the tempting rolls, biscuits, buckwheat
cakes and waffles which would almost melt
when put in my mouth, the delicate cakes,
delightful meats, and withall the happy
faces of Fred and his wife would remind
one of little harem where we could al
ways find comfort and rest they both assur-
ed me of their hearty cooperation and l
shall long remember the smile that played
over Myra's face when she assured me that
all would be well if | would always buy my
groceries from McClatchy's store, for they
have learned he keeps only the best of Ba-
king Powders, Fresh Canned Meats, fresh
canned fruits, Ono shelf worn goods,) pre-
pared buckwheat, pure coffee and teas, Ono

sent out from McClatchy's find no equal in
the market in quality or price.

A You pe Lady in a Trance.

READING, Penn, March 1S.-The
case of q highly respected young
lady, about 81 years old who has
been lying i'll trance sinceThursday
night is attracting a great deal OF
attention. Her name is Miss Lucy
Morris, and she is the daughter OF
the late John. Morris, who years ago
was a prominent membor of Select
Council and one of the best known
citizens Of Reading. Miss Morris
was member of q committee of SO
ladies appointed to hold a baz lar
next week at Maennerchor Hall,
and when the committee met on
Thursdly night TO examine articles
for the bazaar and attach prize marks
she was one of the liVelest. When
about to start for home, at 10 O'Clock
she fell to The floor in a sweon, was
carried home on a setttee and remain
ed in a comatose condition ever since
The physicians who were summoned
have tried in vain 10 restore her.
At IL O'Clock last night she was
apparently reviving when she asked
for q drink of water in a very faint
voice, and after drinking a spoonful.
she again closed her eyes until
5 O'Clock this evening, when one
of the attending physicians succeeded
in arousing her aud attempted to
administer some medicine. She re-
marked family and slowly, "I am
not sick" and immediately relapsed
into a deep sleep, in which condition
she still continues.
