Woman.

Plant her among flowers, foster her
as tender plant, and she is thing of
fancy, waywardness and folly--annoyed
by dew drop, fretted by the touch of
a butteray's wing, and ready to faint at
the sound Of u beetles and she is over
powered by tho perfume of rosebud.
But let real calamity come, rouse her
affections, enkindle the fires Of hor heart,
and mark her then; how her hoart
strengthens itself; how strong is her
heart, place hcr in the heat Of the bat
tlo--givo her child, bird--an thing
to protect--and 500 her in her relative
instance, lifting her white arms as u
shield, as her own blood crimsons hcr
upturncd forehead. praying for life to
protect the helpless.
Transplant her in tho dark places Of
tho earth, call forth her energies to ac-
ton, and her breath becomes u healing,
her presence a blessing She disputes

pale and affrighted, shrinks away. Mis-
fortune haunts her not she wears away

dal In prosperity she Is bud full Of
odors, waiting but for the winds of adj

Dried Potatoes.

A celebrated German scientist en-
phatically draws attention TO the dried
potato as an important food article. pos
sessing some very valuable advantages
in comparison with the vegetable 10 u
fresh state. The advantages claimed for
the articles are these While fresh po-
tatoes easily rot, blackcn and sprout.
dried potatoes, when kept duly pro-
tccted from moisture, remain in the
best condition for long time and be-
ing by far lighter and less bulky than
fresh potatoes. are far more convenient
for preservation and transportation,
which point has great practical i'm
portance, especially in time of war. To
DO ft for culinary use tho article re-
quires preliminary maceration, soak
ing in water for ten or twelve hours.
This is an idea worth putting into
practice. Why should not potatoes,
when in their best condition in the fall.
be dried by the evaporating process for
family use the same MS apples, peaches,
plums, etc. And why not be- dried as
an article of commerce, instead Of being
held over till they become almost worth
less 10 the spring? In that form they
can DO shipped, Mt small expense, to the
ends Of the earth, like dried fruits, and
their consumption very materially ia
creased,

HE KISSED HER,
In the hammock, slowly swinging,
Where the butterflies are winging
Idly through the summer air
Lies maiden, sweetly dreaming;
Through the boughs the sunlight streaming
Tints upon her golden hair.
Coming close to her. wonder
At her beauty and ponder
Whether il would be a sin
Just to kiss her, or would make her
Angry, If the kiss should wake her,
Pressed above her dimpled chin.
Meath her lashes bright eyes twinkling,
All at once gave me an inkling
That her sumber is sham;
And my faint resolve grows flrmer
When her ripe lips softly murmcr:
Goodness, Jack Don't DO CLAMP
Beneath the shady tree they sat,
He held her hand, she held his hat,
| held MY breath and lay right fiat,
they kissed-I saw them do IT,
He held that kissing was no crime,
She held her head up every time,
We held our peace and wrote this rhyme,
While they thought no one knew It..

LUCKEY ITEMS.

The weather Is fine and pleasant, and
the snow which fell on Sunday and
Monday is being improved by every
body. Teaming IS brisk at present,

Mr.. Isaac w. Kro,zer, who was the
founder Of Luckey, and who died 30
suddenly on Thursday last, Jan. cath, OF
heart disease while ut work, was buried
on Sunday, January 27th, by the Free
Masons. He was member Of tho order
ut Pembcrville, and was noted for being
one OF the kindest hearted men living in
this section. Had he been more strict
IN his business matters lie to-day would
be worth at least 100000, but he was
altogether too free hearted, and too
confiding for his own good and those of
his near friends. He served short
time in the last war. He plated Lnckey
in 1881, and the village commenced
growing rapidly from the start, and it
has had large shipping business over
the Ohio Central railroad from the very
start, and to-day, Luckey is one of the
most thriving business places along the
line. and the greatest lime center in the
State. Its lime stone it unsurpassed for
quantity and quality. Mr.. Krotzer was
one of the main founders of the Luckey
M. E. church and Sunday School. His
donations for the NJ. E. church are
worth over $780, and the same was
done for the Lutheran church society,
and many secured their homes through
his Kindness and liberaliiy. He leaves
a very sick wife and son and daugh-
ter to mourn his loss-with a very large
circle Of friends. He seemed to wor,y a
good deal over his financial troubles
that overlook him. A great many will
remember with kindly feelings and
tender recollections the many good
deeds and good Samaritan acts of Mr..
Isaac w. Krotzer.
