when a livery man lends me kick
ing horse to take my girl out riding,
that settles it. l asked the boss If
I couldn't have quiet horse that
would drive hisself if I wound the
lines around the whip, and he let me
have one he said would 60 all day
without driving. You know how it
is, when a fellow takes girl out rid
ing he don't want his mind occupied
holding lines. Well, I got my girl in,
and we went out On the Whitefish Bay
road, and it was just before dark, and
we rode along under the trees. and l
wound the lines around the whip. and
put one arm around my girl. and pat
TED her under, the chin with, my, other
hand, and her mouth looked 50 good,
blue eyes looked up at me and twinkled
as much as to dare me to kiss her, and
was all Of a tremble, and then my
hand wandered around by her ear and
I drewher head up to me and gave
her smack. Say, that was no kind
of a horse to give to young fellow to
take a girl out riding. just as /
smacked her felt as though the buggy
had been struck with a pile driver.
and when I looked at the horse he was
running away and kicking the buggy
and the lines were dragging on Che
ground. l was scared, I tell you. l
wanted to jump out. but my girl threw
her arms around my neck and screamed
and said we woald die together, and
just as we were going to de. the buggy
struck a fence and the horse broke
loose and went off, leaving us in the
buggy, tumbled down by the dash
board, but we were not hurt. The old
horse stopped and went to chewing
grass and he looked up at me- as
though he wanted to say 'philopene.'
I tried to catch him, but he wouldn't
catch, and then we waited till dark
and walked home, and I told the livery
man what I thought of such treat
ment, and he said if I had attended to
w driving and not kissed the girl /
would have been all right. He said /
ought to have told him 1 wanted
horse that would not shy at kissing. but
how did know was going to get up
courage to kiss her? A livery man
ought to take it for granted that when
young fellow goes out with girl he
is going to kiss her, and give him
horse according. But 1 quit him at
once. 1 won't work for a man that
hasn't got sense. Goshl What kind

1t was frequently remarked by the late
Chief Justice Brent, who along with his high
legal and scholastic attachments found time al
SO 10 give seine observation to such common
place things as the weather, that years OF OBJ
seryation had prove 10 him that there was one
day at least in The year upon which rain might
be confidently looked for, and that day was
the fifteenth of August. This familiar prophecy
Of our lamented Judge vas frequently and
hopefully referred to 10y some of our anxious
farmers in town on Tuesday, with whom the
prevailing dIouth and its probably distressing
consequences was a common topic Of converse
ton. In view, however, Of the fact that the
Sly nal Service had predicted fair and cool wea-
Their for that day not much consolation was
derived from the old tradition. Before day had
fairly dawned on that morning, however, the
ears of despairng husbandmen in every section
of the county were delighted with the welcome
pat,er of the blessed rain, descending gen ly
but ste.dily from the heavens and refreshing
the parched and wllted vegetation. The rain
fell steadily but lightly throughout the day
and has since continued without interruption );
so that it may be said that abundance of ram
has already fallen and the drouth is probably
terminated Tobacco is rallying promptly I'M
der the reviving influence OF the Tain, and corn
also will be greatly improved, though it is pro-
bable that great portion Of that crop has al
ready sustained an irrepairable blight.

living near Hill Top, by Rev. Eugene McSway-
nay, S. J. The spacious church was we'll filed
with the numerous friends and relatives of the
contracting parties and the cheerful ana happy
look on the faces of all argued we'll for the fu-
ture happiness Of the young couple The bride
entered the church leaning on the arm OF her
INTENDED husband, and as they assembled the
aisle their modest and graceful department
evoked the kindest criticisms from the assem-
bled company. The bride was neatly attired
in a handsome and neat fitting garnet silk,
which set off her graceful and petite figure to
perfection and gave heightened and beauti-
full tint to her clear and fresh complexion that
was indeed charming. The groom was attired
in the conventional black, and his face land
manner gave every evidence of The joyous tu-
multi in his soul as he took the VOW to cherish
and protect his youihful bride. After the cere-
mony they repaired to the home of the bride S
| father in this village, where they received the
congratulations of their many friends and
where the bountiful collation. that had been
prepared was amply partaken of. The young
couple were the Recipients of many handsome
and useful presents. At late hour the same
evening, the bridal party with few friends
left fer their future home near Hill Top. We
throw after them the old shoe of good luck
and hope that their welded life may ever be
one of Joy and unalloyed happiness.

sheep Law Wanted.

Almost every day we hear of sheep being
destroyed by dogs throughout the county, and
the farmers have no remedy. A number o;
sheep are beneficial on every farm, and can be
economically raised, provided th.y are protect
ed against inroads from dogs. Farmers have
no protection against these worthless ours,
that are no ben. fit TO their owners or the pub
lie and that bring in no revenue to the State.
If sheep or dogs must lie killed for fun, then
there should be general holiday some fine
day, and each man should emulate his neigh
Dor in a contest for the greatest number of dog
scalps, or perhaps IL safer way would be to
have some etTeciual law passed to cover the
case; and now that the political contest is
about TO begin ii would be well to See that no
man in either political party, as both are equal
~ interested in this matter, gets nomination
to the Leg islature unless he will pledge himself
to use his utmost endeavors 10 have AN etiec-
tual law passed to cover this case.

some advantages over the large f'rmrrs. The
care of small number of animals may come
in along with The other work. And this means

is large quantity Of produce on small farm
which can only be probably utilized 10y farm
animals. Some rotation OF crops is nearly al
ways essential TO The test farming, and grass
and clover should have prominent place in
this rotation These can best be used on the
farm, rather than be sold We are coming TO
learn that in cornstalks and leaves there are
vast stores of good food, which ought TO be
made better use of than simply turned under

try we're fully stocked with farm animals they
would be vastly more important factors in af-
