Last Sunday evening Raw. B. f.
Humphrey preached one of the best
sermons we have had the privilege CT
listening to for a long time. 1t was
well composed and effectively de-
livcred. Those who who were pres
ent at both morning and evening
services say that his morning sermon
far surpassed the one given in the
evening. We wish that Rev. Hum
phrey's services might be retained
among us.
Aurora county is the home of the
aesthetic. A Plankinton girl declares
squash to be "vulgah," and requests
the "cymlings" to be passed, that be.

This girl must be closely related to
the young lady who wouldn't eat veal
because SIZE thought she never could
look a cow in the face, or the Main
girl who didn't want her lover to
name a boat after her, because she
didn't desire to read in the papers
that matilda Slocum is up for re-
pairs" "Matilda Slocum is on the
dock to be scraped," etc.

Possibly sixteen summers might
have passed over her fair young head.
She was of that rare beauty once seen
is eve forgotten-indeed of her it
might be said sis she not more than
painting can express" She had the
ripe peach fragrance Of paradise and
the breath of the cape jasmine of
the tropical Empyrean and
When she had passed
1t seemed like the ceasing of
Exquisite music"
Entering the Index block she was, by
request, ushered to the counting
rooms where she was introduced to
Bro. Willis as he was sitting on an
ink key writing Coolcy's obituary.
As he tenderly gazed up into the
beautiful brown eyes and at the 81
bangs she said: 81 would like to sub
scribe for your paper" Certainly
Mlss-ah-" wa the polite re-
Spouse, as he tipped over the paste
pot in endeavoring to find the sub
scription book. "For a year or six
months?" Oh no, only for a week.,
she replied and then she exclaimed
as he looked up at her with a havn't-
ad-a-chew-of-tobacc look
81 only use them for bustles, and a
weeks papers lasts a long time. After
the beautiful vision had mingled with
the outer atmosphere the "devil'
brought him to by telling him King,
Andrews and Cooley were marching
up the street in a hollow square with
blood in their eyes, hair on their teeth
and feathers on their toes.
Painful Acrident.
