Preston rs NIonongnIin.

A gentleman who rode over twenty
miles of turnpike in Monongalia Coun-
ty, and the same number of miles over
dirt road in Preston County, called
the attention of Post man yesterday
and said:
"Mr. Post, wish you would say
to your County Court that if they will
keep up the roads in Monongalia
like they doover in Preston County,
that present and future generations
will rise up and bless them for it,"
eyes, we believe Preston does
beat Monongalia for good roads" re.
piled the scribe.
"Beat her ? Well should says
so !" said the gentleman. There is
nothing that has retarded the pro-
gress of Monongalia County" con-
tinued he, for the past fifty years, as
much as bad roads. Bad roads give
away any county. 1t was mistake
to take the tolls off the roads in Mon
ongalia-a great mistake, Mr.. Post"
continued the gentleman.
The Post throws in these little
hints-these everyday expressions of
travellers and others for the benefit of
all concerned II Morgantown Post.

a noticeable feature that in more
earthquakes in this country the waves
take the direction of great mountain
ranges. The wave phenomena from
an earthquake caused by a slipping

with the last mentioned.
While igneous agencies are the
primary cause of earthquakes, there
are doubtless other things that have
some influence. Earthquakes are
more frequent when the moon is in
perigree or nearest the earth, and
more frequent in new than full moon.
More occur in July than any other

Rev. ID, ii. King announced from
his pulpit last Sunday evening that
he had decided to remain here and
decline the call To Aberdeen, Md,
provided the same interest would be
taken in the church as heretofore.
He had no desire TO leave his field
on account of any lack of financial
support or any unpleasantness with
any of his congregation, but was
moved to offer his resignation because
he left that he could do q good work
in Aberdeen and have certain adj
vantages he could not have here; but
when the officers of the church and
the congregation at large had OK
pressed such n strong desire for him
to remain, for the welfare of the
church, he felt constrained to yield
and still continue as their pastor.
Unless some contingency should
arise between this and the meeting
of the Presbytery he will no doubt
remain here indefinitely. This will
be pleasant news to Mr.. Kings host
of friends and admirers.-[ Lonacon-

truth of the story. ED,
"Oh. darling Ethel" said the young

me as do you, or you would not be
so cold"

Eyes you are. Here 1 have loved
you manly for months, and tonight
l have told you so, and yet you re-
fuse to let me kiss your sweet lips,
only once to seal our compact"
at would not be right, Hubert"
she sighed.
Eyes it would, my darling one. 1t
would not harm you; it would be a
token l should never forget. Do give
me one, just one, my affianced BRIDE"
well, Hubert" said she, as her
liquid eyes beamed love to his, "if
give you this token, will you give me
one to keep near my heart !''
Anything, darling, any token you
may wish !"
Then l am yours" and she sank
upon his breast while lie rained burn
ing kisses on her willing lips.
"And now, darling, what token do

and kiss it when you are away, Just

and she placed the paper in her bosom,
and when she reached her room she
took it out and gazed on it. And
