Aeurious trait Of states cows Is that
Of "caching" their calves. For several
days after birth, they generally keep
their calves hidden In some secure placs,
visiting them once or twice . day and
perhaps getting their, own feed mile or
more away. Strange IS 1t may seem,
this practice y much more common
among gentle statss' cattle than any
other class. = s. 81 81 ! i, 4 s.=,

Some Gold Facts.-An exchange very truth
fully says: "'Credt Robbery is term used for
getting credit on your face and then neglecting
to pay. All the goods storekeeper sells would
be cheaper if everybody paid. The good, honest
customers have to pay more on account of the
scamps who won't pay if they can helpit. Houses
would be more plenty and rents lower if the owner
could be sure of the rent. In various ways this
credit robbery works to the detriment Of the
honest and thrifty portion of society"

Wants Spelling Schools Revived.-Prof
Barnette, editor Of the Delta Herald, and sue
cessful teacher himself has the following to say on
an important subject awe fear the boys and
girls of to-day are not learning to spell as wen as
their fathers and mothers did. The bad spelling
of the modern "good scholar" is often painful. to
behold We believe in the old-fashioned spelling
school, Twenty years ago they were very COM
mon, and nearly everybody could spell. The chill
dren found amusement in it, and the older people
enjoyed it. Now spelling schools are rarity.
revival in this direction we believe would be bene-
fetal. Akin to good spelling is correct pronun-,
citation. Few people are aware of the number OF
words they mispronounce. Teachers should be
exceedingly accurate in their own pronunciation
and should insist on the same from their pupils.
The dictionary should be freely consulted by DOM
teacher and pupils being careful to get the exact
sound of the letters, and the right accentuation.
Much of the grace and beauty of good speaking

to say with reference to one of the ponds from

"There is quite an interesting history connected

traditions of Highlandtown, that in years gone by
the site of the pond was an iron ore bank. one
day, while the workmen were busily engaged, one me
of them was digging, when his pick struck through
thin stratum of earth and Immediately power
full spring gushed forth, filling up the mine and
compelling the workmen to flee. horse wnicn
was used in the mine was drowned, and all the
tools of the workmen, as we'll as several carts,
were left behind. The pond has an average
depth of sixty feet, and it is said by responsible
persons that it rises and falls with the tide at the
same hours as the waters of the Patapsco."

StabIersville, 9TH District.-Perhaps lit
tie news from this place might be read with some
interest by the many readers of The UNION, after
a long silence of your correspondent. L attended
IN oyster supper lust Saturday night at Shane
P. O., which was held in old building, formerly
the residence and store house of Archer Shane,
and it is said that George Washington spent the
night in this same building. But let that be as
it may, am sure the house was not packed as
full on that occasion as it was on last Saturday
night, with all the pretty bellies and handsome ~
gallants of that neighborhood Many of the
pretty girls present acknowledged that it was
the first good squeeze they had ever had. All
the oysters were cleaned up by o'clock, and
quite handsome sum realized. The supper was
held by the West Liberty NJ. E. Church people
for the benefit of the church.
Mr.. Henry Wright, road supervisor, was out on
the road few days ago, with few hands, max
ing some repairs before the hard freeze came.
The road leading from White Hall to the Har-
| ford line is certainly travelled as much as any
road of its length in the upper end of the county
| Part of it is also digrace to the county. The
| people that travel it are surely a patient set

I have noticed.recently in several papers an
| account of a man near Lima, Ohio, turning into
a burning stone for cursing God, and in order to
| find out the truth of the matter, wrote to the
Postmaster at Lima, and received an answer that
