News is received of the death at Galva,

Nothing New Under the SUN.

1t is generally believed that the Sunday
newspaper is a modern invention, an limo
walton of our own day and time, but moth
ing could be farther from the truth. In
the year 1877 the Bishop of London, Por-
teous, in special charge delivered to his
clergy, took for his subject, "The profan-
alton of the Lords day." and says among
other things, "the ordinations which l now
allude TO, are the travelling of stage wag-
ons and stage coaches on the Lords day,
the printing and dispensing of Sunday
newspapers"
What would the good bishop have said
to the ordinations of our day, of the Sun
day excursions, the bicycle races, the base
ball games, the Wild West shows, and in
places more remote from the centres of
population, the exhibition of the same
spirit of lawlessness on the part of many,
as shown by their utter neglect of the ser
vices of the Lords house, the seeking of
worldly pleasures, and the qualification of
mere selfish desires on the Lords day.

A woman's successfuI Pastoratel

The Rev. Mrs. Frost, pastor of the Con-
gregational church at Littleton, n. H., is
unique in her position and the way she at
tanned it, even among the handful of women
ministers in this country. She went to
that town several years ago with her hus-
band, the Rev. Geo. B. Frost, when he was
appointed to the pastorate of the Congre-
gational church. Mr.. Frost was taken i'll
and had to take a long vacation, and the
church invited his wife TO supply the pull
pit during his absence. This she did for a
year, and then a church council was called,
and after rigid examination she was Or
dained a minister of the church. Some
time afterward her husband was compelled
by continued i'll health to ask for dismissal
from his charge, and at the unanimous re-
quest of the congregation Mrs. Frost as
sumed the duties relinquished by her hus-
band. Since then she has performed all
the offices of her place, in the church, at
weddings, funerals, and in all manner Of
parish work. She is woman of great
ability, but modest and retiring, and in no
way sought the place to which the people
called her.-CldremOnt, N. H., AdrOcdte.

Teach Loyalty to the Flag in the
schools.

A great deal has been done by the Grand
Army of the Republic to have loyalty and
patriotism taught in the public schools. it
being the belief of the veterans that the
children should be so taught that they
shall love and respect the flag and grow up
with a sense of its significance as well as
its beauty. Today there are but few
school rooms in our state without the
American flag. In visit among several
of the Grand Army posts of this county
Col. W. II. Greenwood post of Putney
was noted as one that takes much pride
in this very important lesson 10 the young.
A comrade in that post tells the story that
in one of the districts the flag had been
presented TO the school, and lesson given,
and all seemed anxious to obey its teach
ings. There was an Irish lad among them
that was, considered rather a ''bad case
and one that used profane language too
freely for his age. But after the flag came
into the school there was a decided change
in this boy, until one night while on his
way home with a playmate there was
trouble between them and then the son of
Erin sent forth food of profanity that
caused his playmate to make a complaint
to the teacher the next morning. The
teacher remarked that she was surprised
for she thought Johnnie was trying to be
good boy, and she had not heard him
swear for a long time. Whereupon the
boy looked up to his teacher with an air
of surprise as he said "Of course you don't
hear me around the schoolhouse where
the flag is" l am one of those that not
only believe that the American flag should
be hoisted on the top of every schoolhouse
and on every public building, but ii should
be planted in the heart of every American
citizen, and that the school-room is the
place TO begin the planting.

for this purpose, and also by a. p. Ranney,
who said he had no present use for them.
Doubtless anyone who has use can obtain
them by applying 10 him.
The school in district No. closed last
week. A good number of visitors were
present on Friday afternoon 10 listen to
recitations and exercises prepared for the
occasion. The teacher reports the whole

1t is expected that all the teachers for the

retained for the winter.

The annual meeting of the Home Mark

evening. The hall was deliberately dec

Gov. Woodbury. of Vermont was present,
Gov. H. Clay Evans of Tennessee was
among the guests and spoke briefly. The
main speech of the evening was by War

Thos. b. Reeds name wss the signal for
enthusiastic cheers.
Henry Clews, the New York banker,
predicts big break in the price of bicycles
in the near future. He likens the bicycle
craze in this country to the Kaffir specula-
ton craze in Europe. at is safe TO say"
explains Mr. Clews, THAT in the last four
years the American people have paid out
for bicycles not less than $500, 000, 900, at
the rate of $4,000, 900 per annum. 1t is a
well-known fact that each bicycle costs the
maker about S27, and is generally sold for
$S5 to 500, consequently the growing COM
petition in manufacture has reached a
point where a serious break in prices may
soon be expected" But he does not look
for any serious effect on the general trade
of the country.
