A Sad Stew.

A certain young man much afflicted
with the disease that can only be cured
by matrimOny, though yet in bis teens,
invited several Of his schoolmstes of the
opposite sex to a caramel stew the other
night. The gallant lad furnished all the
ingredients, and they met in the hope Of
having grand time. Joy and an abun.
dance Of fan was there to stay but a short
time. The shouts and the merry laughs
caused the weary pssser to stop and in
measure enjoy the fun. When the cara
mels were cooked they we're put in pans
to cool, and while waiting with watering
mouths some unknown william entered the
kitchen and stole the pans. Whom the
theft was discovered there was more con-
sternation than there was IN the ball
room on the eve of the great battle that
ended the career of Napoleon. I'M fact
one Of the ladies became so excited she
wiped her fair face with dish towel.
We regret that our police do not attend
to their duty and would suggest that
Willie have the Yankee detective on
hand at his next stew.

A Poor Excuse.

There IS a custom prevalent amongst
a class ofpersons of deferring the pay
ment Of small sums to those who work
for them, upon the plea Of having no
change 1t IS a mockery Of words to
tell man or woman dependent upon his
or her labor that you have no change for
the poor kno w perfectly well that change
is to be had; ana wteh you tell them to
call again in few days, or when it is
more convenient to attend to them, per-
haps the disappointed applicant goes ser
rowing home to meet the eager glance of
a parent, wife or child, who has been in
need of some article Of food or clothing
which that little payment was expected to
furnish them with the'means of procuring.
Much suffering and distress could be
averted were a little more charity and
lsss indifference were exercised in mat
tiers of this uature.-Richmond State

Protracted Meeting.

Rev. j. ". Lee, Evangelist, has been
conducting a series OF meetings in the
Methodist church since Saturday night.
HIS sermons have been logical, yet simple,
earnest presentations of the word Of God.
The congregations at night have been
very large, filling the church to its
utmos: capacity at times. A number of
persons have already protested faith in
Christ, and there is much seriousness in
the congregation. Christians are getting
actively in earnest. If the old town could
threw off It's apathy, and we could all
put God before self, and salvation OF souls
before church or business. a wonderful
work would be accomplished here. The
bible readings gwen by Mr.. Lee at 10 A.
NJ. each day, are very interesting aid
instructive.
With Thursday began three services
each dsy-1o A. NJ. 3 p. NJ. and P. NJ.
Or Saturday at 10 O'Clock A. NJ. there
will be a special service for young people
from to Is years Of age. Let all come
to this meeting. The old and young are
alike INVITED, to this most important
meeting.
On Sunday at P. N. sermon to men
only. Allow me 10 embrace this OppOr-
tunity to plead with the people to give
this meeting their support in every way.
Your presence, your prayers, yo1r in
huence, so that good may be done 10 tie
name OF the Lord, our churches strength
ened, souls saved and God glorifed. l
appeal to Christian people in the name of
our common Lord Pastors local and at
a distance are earnestly requested to be
present with us. This IS the Lords work,
and yours, because ye are the Lords.
Come thou with us, do us good, and re-
,eive good. Earnestly,

he got rabbit all the same that weighed
90 or 100 lbs.
Mr.. Fl. H. Riffey's still house burned

timated at about $3.50 to s275 He lost

Mr.. Jacob Drummond, who lived

was buried on Sunday. Funeral services
were conducted by Rev. Mr.. Climber.
There are men in all communities who
never do business of any kind, who are
the first to howl and bewaiI a panic in
trade, doing what they can to increase
it's embarrassment. Such ctizans are Of
little use to any one, and as le, serve
themselves at the expense Of other striv-
lag people anxious to prosper. The same
class Of men when business begins to
recover from panic and shocks received
therefrom, are ready to discourage efforts
in this direction to decry those who make
them and put impedlments ID the way Of
citizens reaching out to restore impaired
prosperity. There is no element so mis-
chievOus as that which is contained in
the course Of action OF these people, panic
shriekers and business confusion bewlil-
ers. Every place has it's share Of such
people who are best treated when left
alone IN their folly. We regret to say
that Woodstock is oyerrun with this class
Of persons.
