4 BIT OF PHILOSOPHY.

Another week rolls round so quickly that we scarcely think we breathe from the time we drop the ''local pencil'' be- fore the time arrives again for us to take it up to add, if possible, mite to the in- terest of THE BEE for another week. Sometimes we are quite confident there is literally nothing to jot down which has transpired since we wrote before, and we cudgel our brains till late in the even- ing to fill in our allotted space. Some times we imagine little and are as often justly corrected. We feel to sympathize with all correspondents who frequently do not know what to write, and fail to recollect what has transpired in their lit tie hamlet since the last issue, of sufflci- ent importance to narrate. Our best hold for writing is on hill some dis tance removed from habitation, when alone on Sunday, Oh no we mean Mon- day afternoons thought does seem to act and assist the pencil far better than if we are shadowed, or almost overlook ed, by some good meaning neighbor who always thinks he has an interesting story to narrate just as we want to con- centrate our minds on the manuscript, but this week we were denied that bles- sed privilege in being left alone Gin our misery'' and content ourselves by groan- ing out this apology for our circumstan- ces and appearance. We envy anyone who out of nothing can create anything g interesting. The thought even is past our feeble comprehension and we pause to hear that story ended.

DON'T "rooL" WITH CIDER.

We are afraid just now cider is about as abundant as water; not new cider, but the old stuff that will set your teeth on edge, make your hair stand, and take the stuffing out of the knees. We do wish our farmers friends would let more of it turn to vinegar, and turn less of it down their throats. It is worse than any other form of spirits, especially when used, as it so often is,by the pailfull. It gives man disposition very much like it's own taste, hard, sour and disagreeable. It makes no flesh, but eats up that man has. We understand some people sell it and that, too, ,contray to law, but we un- derstand that a day of reckoning is near at hand for such, unless it Is stopped.

DEATH OF GEORGE WATSON.

George Watson died, Sunday morning, after an illness of about three weeks. The funeral was held in St Andrews church, Wednesday morning,at 10 a. m., Rev W. T. Bielby officiating. Mir Wat son was born in Marbledale nearly 5l years ago. He was man of quiet and genial disposition and had we'll furnish ed mind. He was not an intense parti- san,yet loyal democrat, who could al- ways be depended on to poll more than party vote. He has represented Bridge port in the Connecticut Legislature where he made many friends. At his death he was a member of the Masonic fraternity, the Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Ancient Orders of United Work men, and other associations. Within the past year his brother and father have preceded him on that journey, "from whose bourne no traveller returns" He leaves two sons. The eldest, Robert, is private secretary of the publishing firm of Scribner Brothers, and the youngest, Charles, private secretary of Mir Morgan, the treasurer of the United States at Washington, His aged mother, at whose home he died, Is still living. He was buried beside his wife, in the Worthwhile cemetery, Marketable, who died four years ago last winter. Both were mem- bers of the Episcopal church,as are also his children.

Our beautiful elms are being destroyed by Baltimore beetles. Millions are on nearly all of the trees. This is small bug of the size and appearance of the cucumber bug. The leaves on the trees look as though they had been singed. Some years ago, the elms were attacked by peculiar worm, that almost destroy ed them. The worm was followed by an enemy, that exterminated it. In the or dinary course of nature an enemy may follow this one and exterminate 1t. Other remedies are not apparent yet
