Anaconda Social DOiugs,

ANACONDA, NJ. T., June 9.-[COrrespon-
dence of the Miner.]-Ou village has had
more OF sadness than gaiety the past
week. Nothing has taken place in our
social circles. The deaths hat have been
chronicled in your columns of several well
known citizens of this place has had a
gloomy effect upon the town.
Memorial Day was observed in a fitting
manner by everyone. All places OF bust
| ness were closed, and at 2 O'Clock Evans
Hall was filled with citizens OF the town
and valley, who had assembled to listen
to the exercises, which consisted of some
stirring and eloquent remarks by Rev. T.
J. Lamont and Rev. Lyman E.. Hanna;
quartettes sung by Mesdames Kennicott
| and Gamer, Messrs. Thomas and Ransom
were particularly appreciated. Then
followed national airs by the band, after
which the procession under command OF
| Prof. Cannon marched to Hill Grove
cemetery where the members of the George
c. Meade Post, G. A. R.. erected a beautiful
memorial Cross OF flowers and proceeded
to decorate the graves OF the dead heroes.
The day was made particularly sad by the
burial of Comrade Collins of the Z. G.
Meade Post, making just three of the
heroic boys of the gray and blue who have
been laid up there. The membership oi

the awful dangers OF the rebellion. Some
are old III years, and many carry the marks
and scars that crown them with everlasting
honor in the eyes of their countrymen. Can
too much be said Of these brave soldier
boys? The beautiful custom OF decorating
the graves OF the dead was carried out by
all who have dear ones and friends at rest
in the lively spot on the hill. Perhaps it
| saddens and brings back cruel heart aches
for the while, but this busy, bustling world
is kind, and the day is soon lost in the
hurry and diversion OF an every day life
which follows. Anaconda is truly beautiful
to look uponnow, andi I chose to be gush-
ing, I might dwell at length upon our trees
and grassy hills; our beautiful, sparkling
warm springs creek. almost entirely con.

jump In.

There are not few persons in the world
who pretend to be anxious to accomplish
something but are constantly bemoaning
their lack of opportunity. The best thing
for such people, and, in fact, for everybody,
is to determine to accomplish something use
full and beneficent every day. Without
work there is little progress. The sum of
many days intelligent work will not be in
considerable Do not hesitate too long. Go
TO work at the thing which lies nearest your
hand. Sydney Smith very wisely said GA
great deal of talent is lost to the world for
the want of little courage Every day
sends to the grave number of obscure men
who have only remained in obscurity because
their timidty has prevented them from max
ing first effort, and, who, if they could
have been induced to begin, would, in all pro.
liability, have gone great lengths in the career
of fame. The fact is, that in order to do any
thing in the world worth doing. we must not
stand shivering on the bank, thinking of cold
and danger, but jump in and scramble through
as well as we can. 1t will not do to be per-
petually calculating risks and adjusting the
chances

The Babes In the Wood.

The story of the BABES in the Wood, u
whose bodies the robins covered with leaves,
has been TO the children pathetic story for
many long year. The covering Of graves
by robins is au old and tender tradition. 1t
was believed that the wren assisted in the
suggestive ceremony. A very old couplet
says:
"Cov'r ring with moss the dead's Enclosed eye,
The little redbreast teaches charitc."
Webster says, In his tragedy of "Vttoria
Corombona," published in 1912:
Call for the robin redbreast and the wren,
Since DER shady groves they hover,
And with leaves and flowers do cover
The friendless bodies of unburied men,"
Robins and wrens are frequently named in
conjunction by old poets Whether the two
species of birds dwell notably in unison an
ornithologst alone can tell, Even old folk
lore puts it
Robins and wrens
Are Gods cocks and hens;
Martins and swallows
Are Gods best scholars

Mistaken Devotion.

In one of the great temples in Japan the
devotion of the worshipers consists in run
ming around the sacred building one hundred
times, and droppinga piece OF wood into a
box at each round, when the wearsome ex.
erton being ended the worshipper goes home
tired and very happy at the thought of having
done his God such worthy service, Are
there not some Christians whose activity is
very similar to this, of about as much value
They are on the street, running to all sorts
of meetings, and ever busting from place to

A Word to Husbands.

Love and appreciation are to a woman
what dew and sunshine are to flower. They
freshen and brighten her whole life They
make her strong hearted and keen sighted 10
everything affecting the welfare of her home.
They make her to cherish her husband when
the cares of life press heavily upon him, and
to be a very providence TO her children. To
know that her husband loves her and is
proud of her, and he believes in her, that
even her faults are looked upon with tender
ness; that her face, to one at least, is the
fairest in all the world thus the heart which
to her is the greatest and noblest, holds her
sacred in its innermost recesses above all other
women, gives her strength and courage,
an energy, and sweetness and vivacity which
all the wealth of the world could not bestow
Let woman's life be pervaded with such an
influence, and her heart and mind will never
grow old, but VIII blossom and sweeten and
brighten in perpetual youth.

Easily Solved.

Some ofthe problems of life may be easily
answered, il we can content ourselves with a
practical solution. Facts may be less satisfac-
tory on the surface, than spread-eagle orato-
ry, but they will sometimes persist In thrust
ing themselves forward.
"Why haven't observation-disclosures farm as

Prices Of SeaIskins.

A Californian hrgely interested in the
fur seal industry, says that sealskins are ex-
pensve, not because they are scarce, but be-
cause the trade limits the supply. If all the
skins that could be taken were poured upon
the market, the fnr would become 20 common
that it would cease to be desired by the veal
thy. So the seal catchers agree upon the total
number that they will put upon the market,
and they make their report to the furriers OF
London and Paris, who meet each year and
decide upon prices.

A ShreWd Farm Hand.

The New York Tribune tells Of laborer
who agreed TO dig farmers potatoes for
one potato hill. The contract did not con-
fine the laborer to selection from each hill,
so he took the largest wherever found. These
averaged about half pound in weight, and
as there were 1900 hills to the acre, his share
was just one ton, or 33b bushels. AT sixty
cents bushel they amounted to $50. He
dug at the rate of one-fourth of an acre per
day, making his daily wages S.. 1t took
one-fourth OF the crop TO pay him.

MelIowing Influence of Time.

From otir mistak6 aid SHORTCOMINGS we
may learn very sweet and wholesome lesson
and one of gracious hope. A lost opportun-
ity brought home, perhaps. with momen-
tary bitterness makes us more weary, more
misery of such as come in the way we sell
dom willingly commit the same mistake twice
when we have suffered by the first, and SO
these things, the thorns of daily life, have
their uses, and from them we may, if we will
rise to higher things and become nobler even
by reason of them, especially if they keep us
humble and gentle and charitable. Out of
these three grow the largeness of life which
will bless our own souls and the souls of
those with whom we come in contact AS
the years go by and life becomes more serious
and earnest for US, how our ideas changel We
are blessed, indeed, if the change brings in its
train that widening of sympathy and sweet
ness Of charity which cannot but think ex-
perience is intended to bring. As we taste
more deeply of the precious joys and sorrows
of life, should we not grow mellow and let
the harsher elements, the rugged points be
smoothed away? God is good and He loves
us ALL That is great truth, and one which
pray to keep as an anchor to the end.
