Timothy's Twenty-third Epistle.

Wellington, Dec. 30, 1882.
With many thanks for past favors,
make my prettiest bow and wish you all
happy new year, and write my twenty
third Epistle. Steam and electricity have
made their impression upon the world in
more ways than one. The average quail
ty of food products demanded by cohsum
ers is steadily improving. Grades have
become so well established that there is
but little difficulty experienced in describ-
ing qualities. Conscience, the prime mon
itor of moral life, is governed more by the
condition of the stomach than the heart.
The balance, which rules the brain, has
been worse disturbed by indigestion from
eating adulterated food and drink, than by
eating all the apples that ever grew in
Eden. More have groaned and died from
over-use of knives and forks, than ever fell
in war. 1t matters not whether you trade,
trot, preach or peddle, there will be less
aching heads If you respect your stomachs
more Let this be your cry, good and
honest quality" at every store.
Finally and lastly, if you want as good
groceries, and as pure as caution and cash
can buy them, at as low prices as cor
responding quality can be sold, come to
the Hornets nest, and will do all things
whatsoever ye would according to the say
Ings of this twenty-third Epistle.

OUR LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE.
BRIGHTON.

AT the home of NJ. E. Seeley, in Brighton,
two brothers and sister of Mrs. Seeley,
who live in Michigan, were invited to spend
Christmas, and also to celebrate their
mothers (Mrs. Annie Loveland) seventy
third birthday, which was Dec. 22d. The
guests arrived that morning, and Mrs.
Seeley succeeded in getting them into the
house without having her mother see them.
An uncle of Mrs. Seeley, who formed one
of the party, and whom Mrs. Loveland had
not seen for more than forty years, was
ushered into her presence first. Then, one
at time, the Others made their appearance
until she had seen them all. Mrs. Love
land was much pleased to see them, and
bore the surprise remarkably well, con-
sidering her age and the fact that she had
not seen any OF these children for ten years,
and one son she had not seen for over
twenty three years. Mrs. Seeley made all
the preparation for this occasion with her
own hands, all unknown to her mother,
who lives in the same house. On Christ
mas Day other friends were invited and a
sumptuous dinner was served and all had a
very enjoyable time. In the evening a
family Christmas Tree was equally enjoyed.
Old Santa Claus put in his appearance,
adding much to the merriment of the chill
dren. Among other gifts to Mrs. Loveland
was a picture of the two brothers and two
sisters, her only remaining children, placed
in an elegant frame. After this pleasant
reunion the happy troupe started on their
Western journey homeward, happier than
ever before. E. NJ. Z:

recipient of lovely silver cake basket,

and may this be an example for others:
Mrs. r. Green is building the second
house on one of her lots on East Lake

since she came here. Her son, James, has
sold his property on the same street and
bought three lots back from the Lake. He
is spending the winter in Portland, Oregon,
and other noted places, looking for an in
vestment.

close at the hall Wednesday evening with

Obituary.

Mr.. SAMUEL LONG was born in Frank
lin Co., Pa, Feb. 9th, 1901, and died Dec.
90, 1882, at the age of 81 years, ten months,
and one day. At the age of II, MIR. Long
began the trade of blacksmith, which he
followed the greater part of his life. Oct.
30, 1922 he was married to Miss Catherine
Goodman, with whom he has lived more
than go years. They had a family of sew
en- boys and three girls, all living but one
boy, who died at the age of fourteen, 80
years ago. The deceased came from Penn
sylvania to Ohio in 1885, lived for a while
in the counties of Wood, Wayne, and Knox,
and also in the State of Illinois. Thirty
eight years ago he came 10 this county and
here remained until death. His illness
was of short duration, as it is not yet two
months since he was able to handle his
own horses and go from place to place.
Taken with a severe cold his health quick
ly gave way, but he went willingly down

place to another, he failed to retain his
connection with the church. When he
came here he united with the Congrega-
tional church. Owing to his deafness he
has not attended services very much for
some years, but he gave good deal of at
tention to his bible. AT the beginning of
his last illness, clouds hung over his spir-
itual sky and some doubts of divine &C
ceptance annoyed him, but these passed
away, and a sweet trust and confidence
took possession of his soul ere he died.
The word brought TO his remembrance
was precious to him, and seasons of prayer
very highly enjoyed. His patience and
his thankfulness both 10 friends and loved
ones and to his Savior were remarkable
and very full of comfort to those around
his bedside, giving a glad assurance that
he has gone to the rest that remains for
the people of God.

Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Boise wish to ex-
press their sincere thanks to their many
friends who have shown true friendship in
tokens not of kindness only, but of material
aid in the hour of their extremity. To each
of the sewing circles-who did nobly-Mrs.
Boise feels placed under special obligations.
To all those who aided in any way and con-
tributed to make up the loss sustained by
the burning of their house and its contents
at so critical period, they find language
inadequate to express the debt of gratitude
they owe, and hope, if not in like circum-
stances, TO reward them in the near future.
Truly such deeds of kindness tighten life's
heavy burdens.
