Some people have very peculiar
tastes. In fact it is very true that
'sthere is no disputing about tastes"
Some people have one kind of pet and
some another, utwhat any one should
want with rattlesnake is beyond our
comprehension. Yet there is one IN
town and it is no baby snake either.
One day last week Mr.. W. r. Keith
had one sent to him by ex press, and he
now has it at the stables in Newoerfy..
IF it were left to us we would suggest
the appointment of q committee to
have a public exception and to furnish
q certified copy that ther duty hsd
neen faithfully performed. But then
we are not fond of snakes. ..

An Early Harvest.

Mr.. D. Walter Barre was in town On
Monday and in a talk about the crops
said that ne had harvested all his wheat
and oats, and in all his experience in
farming he had never before COM
pleted that job by the lst of June.
Fall oats made about one-fourth and
spring oats half a crop. Wheat is far
behind, and Mr.. Barre made one-third
of q crop. He has never bought bsr-
rel of -four for his own use, and will
NOT be compelled to do SO this year, be-
cause his wheat crop was good last
year. This country needs more farm
ers who will plant wheat, even if they
do make pvor crop now aud then.

In Memoriam. .

Deaths silent arrow has found its
way into the home of Mr.. and Mrs. s..
J. Mclaughlin and pierced their hearts
by taking from their arms their lovely
babe, Frances Lyles, who had only
been given to them four months and
nine days.
Ere this little bud had unfolded itself
it has been transplanted to another
cline to serve as a binding link in
urging its parents to high and holy en-
desvors, that they may realize an un-
broken family circle in the beautiful
beyond. ..-~-
The event, so sudden and unexpected,
makes the blow heavy; but we pass
under the rod, conscious that no feeble
chance nor hard, relentless fate caused
it; but for purpose it has been taken.
We know not now, but shall know
hereafter.
And may we not hope that its
angelic spirit is permitted to enhance
the joys Of loved ones gone befores
"Hope looks beyond the bounds of
Time,
When what we now deplore,
Shall rise in full immortal prime,
To bloom and fade no more"

An Object Lesson In Economy.

It is recorded Of the founddv of Guys
hospital that he always dined alone,
and that a soiled proof sheet or an old
newspaper was his constant substitute
for tablecloth. One winter evening
he was sitting in his room meditating
over a handful of half lighted embers
confined within a narrow brick stove,
and without the luxury of candle
A person who came to inquire for
him was introduced, and after the first
greetings were over the visitor was re-
quested to take seat. Thereupon Mr..
Guy lighted a farthing dip which lay
on the table beside him and inquired the
object Of the gentleman visit. II have
been told, said the latter, that you,
sir, are better versed in the prudent and
necessary art Of saving than any man
now living. I therefore wait upon you
for lesson in frugality, an art in
which used to think excelled, but I
am told by all those who know you that
you are greatly my superior. =
And is that all you came about?''
asked Mr.. Guy. "Why, then, we can
talk the matter over in the dark
So saying, he, with great delibera-
ton, extinguished his newly lighted
farthing candle Struck with this in
stance Of economy, the visitor acmowl-
edged himself vanquished and took his
leave. London Tit Bits.

Addressing Envelopes,

A new notion somewhat in practice is
to address and stamp envelopes on the
back. With the address written across
the folds it can readily be seen that any
tampering with the contents Of the en-
velope could be detected. Now, if like
the electric burglar mat, which on be-
ing stepped upon not only sets all the
bells IN the house a-ringing, but also ex-
poses the negative and takes . Aashlght

to the left nor to the right. Finally she
reached lane where the hazel bushes
sklrted the road. She walked more
carefully then. She peered into field
through an opening, but did not seem
satisfied, for she continued her walking.
She stopped again shortly and looked
through the bushes In the field, about
20 PAGES distant, was a man patiently
hoeing his corn. She poked the rifle

Fish a+ n Fertilizer.

1t was novel object lesson on the
effects of stimulants that New
Yorker sojourning in Maine last sum
mer discovered. Beside tho house
where he boarded was field that
had once been cultivated, but now
was as barren as the Sahara. What

why. 1t was manured with fish.
You know farmers near the seashore
use porgies. dogiish, and othor fish
worthless to eat to fertilizo the land.
And don't the fish just make the
crops grow for few seasons! Look
at that patch now. For years it
yielded tho finest corn. potatoes and
garden sass you ever heard OF. You

on it wouldn't make it bear SO much
as weeds or grass. The only thing
Is to let it lie fallow until tho soil
gains strength by rest. Farmers
round the seashore have found out
that. though fish fertilizers give
them tempting crops to start with,
they must be handled as carefully az
a man ought to handle rum or
brandy"
