KIMENER = MITCHELL. - At the
residence of Joseph Weible, j. p, in
Florida, Henry County, Ohio, Chas.
Kimener and Miss Cora Mitchell.
In the beginning of November
days, while the warm summer days
were drawing to u close, and the de-
caying leaves are around us falling,
reminding us of approaching winter.
these young friends so long and well
known to each other have not hasti-
ly and without reflection taken the
step in which so largely the happi-
ness of their coming days depend,
but when the way seemed open so
that their Judgment approved what
the heart had proposed, they enter
ed the way not doubling but that
under the kindness of Divine provi-
dence will lead them to comfort and
happiness. They then quietly step
ped into their carriage that was
awaiting them at the gate and drove
away. May their department ever
be as becoming as in this hour and
their days of life be as pleasant as
the marriage day.
They reflected and tarried,
They decided and married; ,,n
And who will say they did not dc well!
Now as husband and wife.
Through their future life, -,
May the angels OF peace with them dwell
May their days know no sorrow,
But each coming Tomorrow,
Outshine all the preceding days;
And when life's day is done,
May its last setting SUM-
| Bring the angel OF hope on ITS rays.

See a Pin and Pick 1t Up.

Superstitions that had their origin
doubtless in the intellectual half-light OF
the Middle Ages, have been handed down
TO our own generation with undated
force and exert a fairly ridiculous intiu-
ence upon the nineteenth century people.
The most common things seen at early
dawn have always a strange and mysteri-
GUS aspect, but as the light grows strong
err, they lose their awe inspiring features
and become again the normal objects OF
everyday life.
Not so, however, with superstitions.
Even the fin de steele glare has not been
able to throw any light on the portentous
significance of thirteen at a table, and
many an apparently otherwise intelligent
person will pause for a rapid arithmetical
exercise in addition. relative to the num-
Der of dish covers, before shortening his
or her own days or those of some friend by
unwittingly forming one of baker S
dozen. That such vague, indefinite fear
does not rest upon reason is sufficiently
proven by the sudden faintness or other
indisposition that furnishes an excuse for
hasty withdrawal from so fatal a COM
plication. Yet numerous instances Will
be grayely cited of people dying who
never died beforehand might possibly have
lived forever, had il not been for thirteen
at somebody's dinner party.
Grave and dignitied citizens Will bend
their rheumatic joints and grope over
muddy sidewalk because at some remote
period an inspired idiot gave utterance to
that oracular saying "See pin and pick
it up and you will have good luck" 1t
may be that the tickle goddess Fortune
has feminine fondness for pins and is to
be propitiated by few spare ones TO hold
in her mouth while she pins her favors on
to the individuals who nave special fac
ulty for picking up whatever lies in their
way.
The superstitious person might as well
break his neck as his looking glass; for
misfortune, he firmly believes, will
straig htway fasten on him with the per-
tinacity and duration OF the seven-year
itch.
An inadvertent glance at the new moon
over his left shoulder gives him the live
liest apprehenslons, while the unaccount-
able stopping of an old clock will throw
him into cold sweat.
He hears death watches in the walls;
wears his clothes wrong side out II he
happens to put them on so, lest in
changing them he change his luck also,
and refrains from cutting his tingernails
on Sunday for fear of doing something he
will be ashamed of before the week is out,
happily unconscious that he has made
very good beginning that way already.
1t causes him no end of misery to have
his wife drop her dishcloth, for he at once
expects visit from his mother law;
and he harbors murderous thoughts tow
ards the neighbor who innocently threat
ems to bring the same affection upon him
by coming in one door and going out OF
another.
The most trivial circumstance is fraught
with meaning to him, and his blind faith
in signs compels him to lead an anxious,
worrying existence-all the time, AS an old
proverb puts 1t, "trying to say good morn
ing to the devil before he meets him."

returns from there on the afternoon mail,
arriving in Burlington at $40 p. m. each

Third in Series Of Special village Meeting

hiiu SpCCldi nid- utttlus,
The third special village meeting called
to consider the water problem passed of
quickly Monday evening. There was q
large attendance, and Henry w. Tewks-
bury served as moderator.
1t was voted to rescind the motion car
ried at the first special meeting, pro-
viding for the construction of new res
ervoir on Colonel Chambers hill.
The village bylaws were amended so as
to permit the water commissioners to fix
a minimum single water service at 50 in
stead of 81.
The third article of the warming was
then taken up, which was to see il the viii
lage would vote to reduce the rate for
family service. The water commissioners
reported that, under their authority, hey
had that day reduced the annual rates as
follows, commencing with the six months
from October /, 1886, to April /, 1877
Family of persons or less, from S6 to "a
Each additional family in houses to a
Each extra one of over in family, $50
Office, store and dentist Office, IS to "A
Market, "a to IS
Barber shop, IS to n
Churches, 10 to -
Blacksmith shops, a
Hotels, $50
This was evidently satisfactory to the
voters assembled and disposed of the ar
ticle.
Some one then moved to adjourn, so as
to prevent action on the remaining arti-
Giles of the warning. The motion pre-
vailed, AS votes to 40.
The net result of all the recent agitation
is to secure the thorough repair Of tue old
reservoir, which is now in progress, and
to considerably lower the water rates, on
the average. II is thought that the ac-
tion taken will be decisive.
Though our rates were lower, under the
old schedule, than in hardly any other
place in Vermont, the income has been
larger than was thought necessary.
Ii is estimated that the new rates VIII
yield enough revenue To sustain the sys-
tenn, make ordinary repairs and pay about
$500 year on the bonded Indebtedness.

reached the Widow Martins cottage ne

had been told there was anything else

everything was in order. long before

frosty air and the wheels had ceased TO
revolve in front of the cottage. BY the
