Of Course We Will.

Last Wednesday morning just as the
force of this Office were busy making up
the town mail, Miss Eleanor e. Reed
stepped into the Office carrying tray
that was covered with a pure white
linen napkin. She asked II we would
accept treat and at the same time
raised the napkin and exposed to view
large bananas, cocoanut cake and ice
cream. 1t was tempting 'lay out'and
was immensely enjoyed by the printers.
Miss Reed watched us devour the
treat and no doubt thought it was
"blessed to give" We all joined heart
lily in expressing our thanks to Miss
Eleanor, and hope her Sunday school
class will hold another picnic soon.

A Punxsutawney Broker.

A Punxsutawney clothier was sum
moned before a magistrate of that
borough by information of Supt. Robin
son, of the Walston and Adrian mines,
charged with false pretense. The
clothier has been procuring employ

The Ability to Belle.

A DuBoisite deliberately lied on a
respectable citizen of that place in the
most slanderous manner. The father
OF the lie had the alternative of a
prosecution for malicious slander or the
publication of an article acknowledging
his statement was entirely false. He
wisely made an acknowledgment in
the Courier Monday morning that he
was base liar The fellow may thank
his stars he got off 50 easily. People
who carelessly trihe with a persons
good name should be taught most
severe lesson. 1t is too often the case
that slanderous lies are told that have
their origin in the brain of some vile
man or woman, unworthy the respect of
decent people. You do not always
have to seek the offscouring of town
to find those who are in possession of
large propensities for prevarication
No difference whether the one who
handles the truth carelessly be dressed
in the latest fashion or in common garb,
they are soon labeled by those with
whom they associate. Those who hold
their heads above the common class are
not as often told of their falsehoods as
are those of the poorer class, because
their friends are afraid Of offending
them, yet they are soon spotted" and
little weight given to what they may
say, though the very people with whom
they are conversing may smile and bow
and apparently take in all that is said,
while they are really thinking what a
Wrapper" that is. Mark you, what
ever may be your station in life, il you
handle the truth carelessly, you are
sure to be classed with those who are
unworthy the notice of respectable
people, though you may mingle with the
best of society.

will shortly be married to Prin ce Freder-

marriage at the Schloss Rumpenheim,
which is situated at the left bank of the
Main, not far from Frankfurt. and close
to the little village of Rumpenheim. 1t
is. an exceedingly pretty castle, built in
the ornate style OF the reign of Louis
Quatorze. 1t is backed by a fine sweep
OF wooded heights which slope
down in a fine p rk to the river.
The view is charming. 1t commands
a wide stretch of the picturesque
valley of the Main and the opposing
slopes, while exactly opposite to it on the
right bank of the Main is a summer
palace known as Philipsruhe. The schloss
was built in the last century by the land
grave of Hesse RUM enheim, a relative
of the landgrave of Hesse Cassel. The
first landgrave was at the time a very un-
important independent German prince,
