ED. DEMoCRAT:-It has been
some time since l have seen any
thing from this part of the county,
and I write thinking that some of
the readers of your valuable paper
might be interested with a few
lines from old Saltcreek, a truly
Democratic township. We had a
very agreeable surprise few even
ings ago at the residence of A. Met
tier, in honor of his daughter Ella
May, it being her Goth birthday. 1t
was complete surprise to her to
see so many of her old friends and
acquaintances come in with the
good things. There was about fifty
persons present, among them her
aunt Amanda Denison, from Ills,
who happened to be on a visit to
Ohio, she had been absent eight
years; also Mr.. Rose, of Columbus,
the old commercial traveller; Jesse
Nigh, of Mount Sterling, o., F. F..
Higgins and others. The supper
was splendid, and every body went
home well satisfied and wishing
Miss ELLA many happy returns.
The manipulaters of the proposed
railroad are still busy working up
their interest. They have optioned
all the oil wells about South Bloom
ingville, for the purpose of running
u furnace with the gas flowing from
them. They have also optioned
considerable lands having coal and
iron ore on them. They say that
they have every thing ready to go
to work and that they will COM
mence work in few days.
In regard to the transfer of lands
in this township, sold by Lewis
Steel, to Jasper N. Morris, @ acres
ofland for $3.50, also to j. G. Butler,
II acres for $780,, all in Saltcreek
township. These lands were for
merly owned by Enoch Karshner
on Big Pine creek.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

When you lie down close your eyes,
with a short prayer commit yourself
into the hands OF your faithful Creator;
and, when you have done, trust Him
with yourself, as you must do when you
are dying.
Our best rule is to give God the same
place in our hearts that he holds in the
universe. We must make him all in
all. We should act as If there were no
other beings in the universe but God
and ourselves.
1t is not only possible that a poor
mar in his struggles for bread Is often
happier than a rich man with plenty,
but it is a fact. Everything in this
world has its drawbacks, including
wealth and raising chickens.
The Kingdom of Heaven is the day
of which grace is the dawn; the rich,
ripe fruit of which grace is the lovely
flower; the inner shrine of that most
glorious temple TO which grace forms
the approach and outer courts.

Finding a Lost Screw.

Sreaking Of chickens picking up and
swallowing diamonds, ''chipas" Of
gold and other bright bits of stone and
medal, has reminded Judge. of this
city, Of an experience with a chicken at
sea.
In June, 1850, lie made the trip from
MaZltlan to San Francisco on The
French bark Surprise. One day, when
about half way up the coast, the stew
ard had out the pinnacle lamp and was
engaged in cleaning and polishing that
bit of nautical apparatus. He had 1t
on the deck, had taken it all apart, and
had the debris, wreckage or whatever
you would call it when at sea, scattered
all about. The vessel was rolling
slightly, and as it rolled 1t caused a
brass screw about half al inch in
length to travel down the deck. Some
chickens were lettering about, and the
fash of the screw caught the eye Of an
old hen. She dashed at the bit OF
brass and in a moment it was in her
crop.
The Judge saw the transaction, and
inwardly chuckled, as he knew there
would soon be Davy Jones to pay about
that screw. When the steward had
polished up the lamp and was putting
1t together again he missed a particular
and important screw. After searching
for the screw for some minutes in vain
the steward spoke of bis loss to some OF
the sailors. They joined in the search,
but no screw could be found. Soon the
attention of the Captain was attracted
to the group of s%earchers, and the
steward was obliged to tell him of the
loss.
The skipper flew into a rage at once,
and used much profane language in
connection with the frequent reference
he felt called upon to make to the
steward S eyes. The poor steward was
on the point of taking a short ride on
the toe of the Captains boot, when The
Judge thought it time to appear on the
scene. He told the Captain that if he
wanted the screw it could be found
with but little trouble. He had only to
order one Of the men to catch an old
black hen that he pointed out, cut of
her head, open her crop, and the screw
would be found.
At this the sailors gazed upon the
Judge as though they thought MN some
practitioner of the black art, and the
steward gave him an appealing look, as
much as to beg him not to join sides
with his prosecutor.
The Captain had the fowl caught at
n Its head was cut of, its crop
opened, and out rolled the lost screw.
Sailors and all aboard were astounded,
and even the Captain changed color.
The face of the steward showed a queer
mixture of delight and awe.
After that bit of legerdemain the
steward could find nothing good enough
for the Judge, and when the wind failed
he heard hints among the sailors that
they might have a ten-knot breeze any
time they wanted It, provided a certain
person aboard should see fit to give 1t
them.
