The Lewiston journal has the faIaulf.

A reminiscent friend recalled one alr i...
week the case Of pioneer journalist in Min,
who, some forty or fifty years ago published No.
one of our villages well-known paprl eil.r.
The Clation. Its publisher was a goea aen,-
crat of generous proportions. Beside bfHs 'hr
publisher he was also the editor, the faleuyt
and good yart of the force Of eomfHsi'0.
He made his paper pay well, and was aha,,
receiving from appreciatiye subscriber -pr.-
mems Of their biggest beets, squashes, Egg, nt
other produce, the receipt Of which h. w, piI,,
to duly acknowledge in the paper witt 'aa f,-
mark that his "porringer" was always reas. fr
more. His list of subscribers, huwt1er $50.
not very large, and on one occasion, when .un,
Of his friends tried to induce him To exert lia.
self to obtain more, he expressed himsrG lu.

have got more now than | want, for have 10
print all the paper myself on hand-nress aA,

more Besides | have to take then. to TIM posi-
| office on a wheebarrow, and what | have nov +
as many as | can wheel in one load, lnd I'm
sure | don't want to go twice" His eNpusD
ton was deemed conclusive. A similar cas-,
within the Journals own knowledge is tlnl u
veteran Maine newspaper publisher who h,,
about 800 subscribers and declares thai d,
doesn't want any more. "Subscrihers don
pay" he says, advertising pays, and can gc

Resoired, BY Harmony Grange No. 1874,
T. of II that while We bow with humble
submission to the will of the Most High
We do not the less mourn with our Bro
and Sister in their deep atliction.
ResOired, That in the death of their son
Roy, Bro. and Sister III odes, have great
,ause for lamentation in that he was a
boy of much promise, and one whom
hey might well be proud of; and that we
as F. of II. and citizens very much regret
The loss from the community of one SO
bright and smart, and giving so much
promise of becoming an hOnOred and up
right man in whom we should have felt
a degree of pride.
ReSolred, That the sympathy of this
Grange be, and here by in, extended to
Bro. and Sister Rhodes in their deep af-
fiction.
Resoiced, That these resolutions be

This is the airy, singing title of another
sprightly amusing book by Palmer Cox. 1t is
one Of the Queer People series, and similar to
its companion 'Paws and Claws. The Boston
Budget, says "as holiday book nothing could
be more appropriate, since nothing could con-

City, to whom persons desiring a copy or an
agency should apply.
