Pionics, AS They Are Enjoyed.

Of all deceptive pastimes in life, commend me
to the picnic-whether it be the naughty and i'm
portant city picnic, by water or rail, as the case
may be, or the easy-going country picnic with its
bugs and breezes. With lunch baskets groaning
with their wealth of the all-important sandwich,
with eggs, pickle jars jam pots, cookies sardines,
preserves, cheese, cold tea Gin bottles) olives,
doughnuts, the alluring layer cake and soul-de-
stroying pie, the whole family starts forth OF
course to the devoted family man falls the task of
carrying the baskets, the wraps, two or three
blanket shawls, numerous parasos and palmleaf
fans, to say nothing of umbreas-for it might rain,
you know. Go we forth from the city? BY all
means go by boat. Take all the enjoyment and
misery you are entitled to. You reach the gang
plank just as they are drawing it in, rush madly
on, and, with sigh, the lunch and shawls and UNI
brelas and people are finally deposited somewhere,
all in heap, for of course, the boat is crowded
picnic boats always are-people are so ready to
leap the borders of necessity at the mere mention
of picnic. How beautiful the waters are-danc-
ing ripping and sparkling for very joy at the
warm smiles the sun bestows upon them The
tender breezes kiss your cheek, and life seems
worth living. But after while the crowd crowds
so, the children run and romp and scream, the
sun grows too warmhearted, pangs of hunger as
sail one, in consequence of partaking of breakfast
at the fendish hour of five and thirty, and still no
land in sight After minutes Git seems hours)
of longngs for quiet and restfu shade, the looked
for paradise is in sight and, amid jostlngs and
wild energies, devoted to the preservation of
lunch baskets and ones own foolhardy being, a
shady lane and friendly trees are reached How
sweet the grass is, how blue the sky! How one
longs to lie down and dream indefnitely-but
there is the lunch Bother the lunch! One must
eat, though; everyone must eat at picnic. So
the cloth is spread, the baskets emptied; and what
matters it if the spiders do drop into the milk, or
= the ants amble over pie, cake and preserves, or
all kinds of bugs explore the vast field of white
linen, you must do your part towards disposng
Of the goodies the household goddesses have pro.

LAWN PARTY.

The unpropicious skies which look
ed down on the hills of Andover last
Friday and which emitted copious
showers at intervals, promised little
of hope to those who anticipated the
lawn party at Mr.. ID. A. Benson's
that evening. The clouds broke,
however, late in the afternoon, and
the moonlight and mild temperature
of the evening rendered the occasion
delightful. Nearly two hundred per-
sons, coming from the towns of An
dover, Londonderry, Newfane, Wind
ham, Weston, Chester and Bellows
Falls, were in attendance. The lawn
was lighted by Chinese lanterns and
was the scene of many a delightful
promnade by the young men and
their best girls. Five gallons of ice
cream, cake in abundance and coffee
constituted the supper. The literary
part of the programme consisted of
music of all kinds, including campaign
songs-republican campaign songs
college hymns, and martial music con-
tributed in large part by his host, Mr..
Benson. Speaking there was too in
attendance and of varied sentiment
from the serious and pathetic to the
farewells of Brother Watkins. So
attractive was the programme that the
party continued beyond the hour of
midnight when songs, martial music,
fireworks and the Indian war dance
gave the final touches to the festivities
Of the occasion.
The ladies of Andover realized up
wards of SO from this pleasant event
which shows that financially, as well
as otherwise, it was a success. Much
credit is due Mr.. & Mrs. Benson for
the very efficient manner in which
they prepared and carried out the
programme. F. l.. F.
