The delicate little flower which we are
apt to trample under foot and pass by
without notice. would appeal to the
basest being if he would only stop and
examine and reflect. So tiny, so modest,
and yet so perfect. Could any power
less than that of an Almighty God con-
ceive a work SO faultless, and put in
this minute thing greater evidence that
all nature is His handiwork? It's col
ors borrowed from the rainbow i'm the
heavens. it petals formed as man could
not execute, its fragrance pure and en-
ticing as the sunbeams. We almost
wonder, as it smiles upon us, il it can
know its power to charm the eye. to
gladden. the sick and faint-hearted. to
adorn the grandeur of a palace or
brighten the bare furnishings of hovel.
Blessed little messenger of purity and
peace, the winters reign will not be
long enough to dim the memory of your
teachings, and springtime will be, all
the more welcomed because il brings
one of our best friends-the little wild
flowers.

The Falls Creek Herald said last
week, THE Allegheny Valley railway
have the best depot at this place of any
along their road" If Bro. Bangert
would take look at the pretty, con-
venient brick station at New Bethlehem
he would change his mind about Falls
Creek having the best one along the
line. However, a large brick union
depot would have been what the town
deserves with its many railroads.

II is said that hOOpskirts are abe

1t is said that hoopskirts are about to
be ushered in as the fashion again in
this country. Oh! deliver our land
from such an annoying, inconvenient
and horrid style. Many ladies oppose
1t and yet II 1t becomes the style you
will see all the women in Reynoldsville
with their skirts spread out so that two
Of them cannot pass on the same side
walk unless they walk close to the edge
Then how about churches or public
gatherings? Now when church or
hall is crowded one man gallantly gets
up to give lady seat, but when the
new style is sprung upon the American
people it will require two men to stand
TO give one woman a seat. Fashion
goes to the extremes. One time a
woman will dress so that her skirts are
as big around as a hOgshead, then again
hoops are discarded and the dress is
tied back so tightly that she cannot
take long step. Then an immense
hustle becomes the style, which is not
only disgrace but is disfguration,
then the wire trap Is thown away and
no hustle is all the rage. The present
style is about rs near perfection as can
be given to the people. The dear
women, what would the country be
without them, demand new styles.
They will wear a hat almost the size OF
washpan, which causes many men to
think cuss words when at a public
gathering, and then in a season or two
they wear bonnet, so-called, about the
size Of the palm Of your hand. Why
cannot the woman be as easily pleased
with styles as the men are? A mans
