 Daniel Dayton lost his horse, recently, in a rather peculiar manner. He had driven the horse down to New Preston and was returning home and had got most up to the top of the hill when the horse, probably thinking of the many wintrv blasts he had passed through on the Hill in years gone by, became dis couraged and concluded that life was not worth living and calmly laid down in the road and died and left MT Dayton to mediate that 'dead horse is sure thing for safety.''

A BLESSED CHARITY. y

Mrs Steele of Chattanooga, the foun- der of an orphanage in that place, is a guest at the parsonage. On Sunday
 evening she give an interesting account
 of the work, Almost 20 years ago she
 went as teacher to the freedmen, under
 the auspices of the American Missionary
 Association While laboring in her
 field she was touched by the needs of
 the little waifs who had no means of
 living but by begging and stealing.
 After appealing vainly to one society
 after another she devoted her own limi-
 ted means to the work, starting her home
 with three little 'sforlornities." She has
 continued this work for ten years, dur
 ing which time she has never asked for
 dollar, but accepted such aid as is
 offered, has cared, during this time, for
 442 of these homeless, destitute little
 ones. Of these, many are in homes of their own, many have learned good trades, some are fitting for ministers, teachers, and missionaries, at Hampton, [Va., Nolthfield, Mass, and other insti- tutions and only very few have gone back on her instructions and gone to the bad. After hearing this noble woman | tell of her labors and their reward, one | can readily believe that the age of mir
 acles is not past and that the widows l 1barrel of meal and cruse of oil, r and the feeding of the hungry multitude with the

WHAT IS COMFORT?

Comfort What is the real meaning of the word comfort? There are as many different opinions of the word comfort presumably as there have been different writers on the subject. You take stroll along the street any evening. You may meet a span of spirited horses with la dy and gentleman in a handsome carriage of the latest pattern. His whole life seems to hang on the words which drop from her pretty lips. In him she sees the ideal man. Everything seems to be present which goes to make life happy. Is that comfort? Again, you will see man sitting on the veranda of spacious mansion, tilted back in his chair with his feet resting on the rail, enjoying his choice Havana. Nothing apparently dis turbs his thoughts or occupies his mind but to watch the curling smoke as it as cends. Is this comfort? Again, you will meet young lady dressed in white whose every action denotes intelligence. With several school books under her arm and swinging little parasol as she beats imaginary time to little tune she is humming, she is apparently all absorbed in her little ditty. Is this comfort? ou will see further along an honest black smith who has toiled all day over the burning, smoking furnace, sitting in the
 
 after the scorching heat of the day and occasionally calling his attention to the opening of some new bud or to the fur ther development of some plant from the preceding evening, or perhaps her sue cess in the propagation of some plant which he has mentioned as his favorite, while at his knee toddles little innocent | which seems to take delight in toying with his evening paper as he moves gent | ly back and forth in big willow chair communjng with the whole world. Is this comfort? Again, you will see on the | arm of little girl, man of manly bear 1 ing and with face carrying an expres sion of content. In the eye there is g vacant look. The locks are white as the driven snow. Coming a little nearer you can hear the child address the agee man as grandpa. His attention is al centered on her little chatter as they

A HISTORIC TANNERY.

Near the watering trough in North Woodbury, stands the tannery of Alex ander Gordon, who manufactures fine grade of russet leather. There has been tannery here for years, and the building now occupied by MT Gordon is an old settler. MT Gordon's father, Alexander Gordon, now dead, began business in 1888. He was preceded by Dea Elijah Sherwood, whose father, Elijah Sherwood, also ran the tannery at this stand. Before modern methods were in vogue they used a ring mill for grinding the bark. It was an immense stone wheel, which was drawn about a circle by horse, with 8 boy driver. The tradition is that boy driver be- came careless one day, and was crushed to death beneath the wheel. This same old stone wheel is now in the founda- tions for some of the machinery. MT Gordon manufactures sheep mats, black smith aprons, etc. His old shop is an interesting place to visit.

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING AND BURNED.

During the thunder storm of Saturday aftern oon, lightning struck the barn of James Atwood. Mir Atwood had just got in the last load of hay, before the shower, and when he got the wagon empty he climbed down the rear end to the floor. Just as he got to the floor he saw a binding flash and heard sizzle like hot iron put into water, and in just moment his barn was enveloped in flames. Mir Atwood, only few feet from where the bolt struck, never felt the least shock. The cattle were all saved and the building was fully insured. Another heavy storm passed over Sum- day evening, but no accidents were re- ported.
