The improvements on the country rr-idcnvo of C. II. rrowuridgo, the old Frishic homestead, have been completed, giving them. us their visitors declare, one of the most utcrat i've places in town. The house is situated about two miles south of Washington Green. Itis situqt- cd on the sidc-hll commundiuga maguiG- cent sweep of the Shcpaug valley. In front of the house is TOW of majestic maple trees, which are probably 50 years olG. The house which was of a plain and severe style of architecture, has been cn largcd. Broad piaZzas have been built on, and seated here one always finds re- frrshiug breeze. The rooms have been furnished in cool and delicate style, the
 light and harmonious colors pervading throughout suggesting rest and comfort. One of the pleasant apartments in the house, is the boudoir of Mrs Trowbridge, his mother, which faces the north. Dr Hubbard of Bridgepor. spends much of his summer with his daughter, Mrs c. Il.

EXPERT GARDENING ON A LARGE SCALE
 A visit to the gardens of the Vacation House, just now is a pleasure. They are, as in previous seasons, in charge of An drew Irwin, who has proved the right man in the right place. Here one sees acres of vegetables laid out and cultIvat- ed almost like park. Through the cen ter is a broad driveway, and teams can drive from one end to the other. There are about 50 people on the average at the Vacation House, and the entire product of this garden goes to supply the tables there. The season, just now passing, seems to be favorable for gardening. At any rate, MT Irwin has succeeded. One visitor enthusiastically declared that this garden took the prize.

Letters To The Newly Married.

Letters to the newly married should
be addressed to both. There is much
! that might be said First of all that
neither take the devotion of each other
for granted, making no effort to cult
vate or retain what each felt to be due.
There is nothing one should kill quicker
in marriage than the first tendency in
either one to discuss the peculiarities Of
the other before third person. Moth
ing is more fatal and nothing is more
vulgar. No one can ever take greater
liberty with the other. These personal
tiles are never funny. though they are
often made to do service as family jokes
brought out for the entertainment of
the stranger. Were to write letter l
should like to beg that nagging be pro-
hibited. and teasing secrets; that mu-
tual concessions be INDUCED; that every
disappointment in the other be regarded
as an opportunity for helping that other
and not as an excuse for alienation; and
l should beg that the one who had
trouble share it with the other, so that
neither go about with evidences of worry
while declaring that nothing is the mat
ter. "Oh, nothing!" in answer to low
ing inquiry from husband or wife SEN
sitive to disturbed conditions in one
loved, is often the first wedge which u
timately drives both apart.-Basar.

Curious Tenure of Lands.

Some lands are said to be held at
Broughton. near Brigg, in Lincolnshire,
by the following tenure: Every year, on
Palm Sunday. a person from Broughton
comes into the church porch at Castor,
having green silk purse containing
shillings and silver lash tied at the
end of cart whip, which he cracks
three times in the porch, and continues
there till the second lesson begins. when
he goes into the church and cracks it
three times over the clergyman's head,
and kneeling before him during the
reading Of the lesson, he presents the
minister with the purse and then goes
into the choir and continues there dur
ing the rest of the service.-BeUs Mes

TENNESSEE, Hartman. The an
nual meeting aud supper of this parish
the Y. P. @. U. Mission was held on the
18th. Reports we're submitted by all
the officers and auxiliary organizations
showing all the affairs of the institution
to be in good condition. Nearly 81 300
has been raised and expended during
the fiscal year just ended, and the pres
ent assets exceed the liabilities. The
General Conventions needs have been
responded to in a most appropriate NAH
ner whenever they have been made
known. The parish has cheerfully given
up it's founder, Rev. w. HI. McGlaufiin,
DID,, to the larger field at Atlanta. Ga,
in order that his work as Southern Mis-
sionary of the Y. P. G. U. may be more
effectual, and that Universalism may be
we'll planted in the rich soil of the Sunny
South.
Knoxville is holding
the attention of the many minds in this
city, and much earnest and honest work
is being done. Many hearts that have
been for long time unsatisfed with the
cheerless future promised by the partial
ist theology find in the joyous hope of
Universalism that which fills the cup Of
desire to the brim. In no city of the
land has Universalism won its way to so
large an extent in proportion to the
work done; and the people in Knoxville
know not what failure means.
The following evening topics discussed
during November is cheerful evidence
of the fidelity of the pastor, Rev. H. L,
Veazey, in holding up for public atten-
ton, the distinctive teachings of our
church.
Nov. 1.-The Argument for Universal Sal
walton from the Universally of Gods
Material Bounty.
Nov. 8. The Universalist Idea of Forgive
ness.
Nov. 15.-How all Men Are to be Saved.
Nov. 22.-If all Men are not Saved, Where
is Gods Power and Glory?

ILLINOIS. Ma ON b. Memorial
services we're held Sunday. Oct. ii. The
church was beautifully decorated for
the occasion with an abundance Of
flowers and autumn branches clothed in
the rarest foliage. Large crayon pictu-
res Of the deceased members and
friends Of the church were brought to
remind the people of some of the truest
supporters any church ever had. In
spite of the downpouring rain good
congregation assembled for the morning
service. The address of the pastor, Rev.
F. F. Buckner, is given in part on the
first page this week.
In the evening the congregation filed

Prof. Olker and Miss Wyne. sang in
spiringly. Mre. Cora McCullom Smith
read the Scripture and Don M. Penny
witt and J. Ross Mickey made short ad

Our church has had one loss only
since last memorial day. Mrs. Salome
Pennywitt died early in the present
year at her temporary homein Chicago.
Oak Park.-The Unity Church News
says: On the evening of Nov. 5 very
pleasant gathering of the friends and
members of Unity Church was held at
the residence of Rev. and Mrs. R. F.
Johonnot
The object of the gathering was two
fold to give our pastor and wife house
warming in their new home and to help
them celebrate the sixth anniversary OF
their wedding day. The parlors were
we'll filled and the evening passed pleas.
antly and quickly in social converse and
in looking at and admiriDg the new
home. Flowers adorned the rooms in
such beauty and abundance that many
were at no loss to recognize the kind
hand of one who was himself present
Ice cream and cake were served by
young ladies in green and white and the
dining-room was prettily decorated in
the same colors. We understand that
after the guests departed the surprises
began, for gifts came to light in various
places about the house. May our pas
tor and wife enjoy many such anniver-
saries in their pleasant home.
Sycamore.-Rev. ]. j. Lewis gave
the Passion Play at Sycamore last week.
1t was we'll received and left splendid
impression. Mr.. D. p. Wild writes Bro.
Lewis as follows: 81 hear nothing but
praise for your entertainment. Many
say it was the finest thing they ever saw.
A Catholic priest was in ecstacies. Local
photographers are particularly warm in
praise of mechanical work and working.

time when you give it in Chicago and
my wife and l will come in"
