State Institute, Ellsworth, Aug.
2I-25, inclusive.

Following the session of summer school
a State institute will be held, conducted
by Prof L. III. Clark of the River Fails
Normal School and Prof. &. j. Brewer of
the Ellsworth High School. The large
number of teachers who have signified
their intentions of being in attendance
combined with the well known ability Of
the conductors already assures the sue
cess of this Institute. But we ought not
TO be satisfied with a fair attendance.
Euerg Teacher IN Pierce county should at
tend. 1t would be superfiuous for me to
point out the advantages of attendance
upon meetings of this kind. All live
teachers are awake TO them. We have
selected a time when no schools are IN
session and roads and weather are favora-
bic. 1t seems to me, then, that sickness
or death ought to be the only thing to
prevent your attendance. Come if posi-
bic and we will endeavor to make it a
pleasant and profitable week for you Ii
YOU cannot come, by all means write me
stating reasons. Ample provision viii be
made for room, etc. Bring your Course
of Study" with you.

Glass Bntter Package,

S. IL. Taylor of 0neonta, n. Y, is
stopping in this city for the purpose
of introducing and selling territory to
local agents for the sale of his Crystal
Butter Package, which article adver-
tises itself at first sight and is culin-
airy vessel or device which should be
in the houses of every farmer and in
fact every housekeeper, as il can be
made valuable in many uses other
than of Butter Package. 1t consists
of a heavy wooden bucket within
which is placed glass jar sealed up
air tight with springs between the
glass jar and bucket to protect it from
breaksge, aifording dead air space
all around between the glass jar and
bucket which answers the same as a
refrigerator, keeping the butter sweet
and solid through the summer months
without the aid of ice; and any other
article of food can be preserved the
same as butter for any length of time.
May and June butter can be kept fresh
and sweet in this package till fall or
winter. Peter Crowns of this city has
taken the general agency and will be
pleased to show the package to any
one.

a Dustin, the country going to the
demnition bow vows, a short crop of
oats, is the tale of woe that has met
our ears for the last week from various
quarters. Our advice is, keep digging
away; don't go in debt; if you owe a
dollar and can get hold of the dollar
go and pay it instead of buying some
gim-crack with the money and asking
your creditor to wait for his pay; if
you are only earning fifty cents day
save twenty-five of it and you will
come out on top sure as shooting Elk.

A ''ghost party" was novel enter
tainment given at one of the homes
on the West Side last Saturday night.
When the moon had set, and darkness
filled the earth with silent dread, a
very grotesque looking party of that
ominous number, thirteen, in ghostly
garb with high conical shaped hats
and much powdered faces each bear
ing lighted candle in one hand and a
cushion in the other, marched in SOL
emn procession to the back yard, and
seated in the order of their numbers
in circle upon a rag carpet, proceed
ed to tell in turn ghost story, at the
close of which the narrator extinguish-
ed her candle. A fine was to be i'm
posed upon the one who should laugh
and the unbeliever be banished from
the circle. Several bushes in proxim-
ity were an awesome sight in news
paper clothes, and two live COLLINS ap-
peared-when at the conclusion of a
very thrilling story unmistakable
sounds of the presence of some object
in the currant bushes caused all to
look round, more or less fearfully, and
they beheld the draped figure of AR.
thur Chapman who, attracted by the
strange sight and having considerable
courage or curiosity, had hitched his
horse in the street and wrapping bis
white lap-robe about him ventured to
approach the group. He was permit
ted to remain on promising to tell a
| ghost story. The second apparitior
which appeared refused to accept The
conditions and vanished again in the
darkness. When the thirteenth can
die had been exiting uished the process
sion reformed and the party adjourn
| ed to the house. In a dimly lighted
room hot chocolate and crackers serv
ed to stimulate the imagination ant
one ghost story succeeded another un
til the whitening time of night, ,
