The name of Edwin c. Burleigh as the
successor of the late Seth L. Milliken meets
with the unanimous approval of the Repub-
licans of this town, and they would be
pleased to have him receive the nomination,
as that would be equivalent to an election.
About forty years ago the late Seth L.
Mllliken taught the High school here, in
what was then known as the Witherly dis
trict. The school house stood on the place
now owned by Mr.. Hudson Brown, and the
recolections of those days are pleasantly re-
called by many OF our older citizens who at
tended the school, and who to-day feel
proud of the honor of having cast their votes
for him who, in their younger days, little
dreamed that a day would arrive in which
his native State would weep and nation
mourn his departure from the scenes Of
action where for many years he had taken so
conspicuous a part.
Rev. G. A. Andrews bid farewell to
his friends last Thursday, and took his
departure for Boston, where he will
remain a short time before going to
Minnesota. Ne. Andrews had been here
nearly year, and the society for which
he labored has been greatly benefit
ed through his untiring efforts, the church
become awakened into new life by his earn
est endeavors and several new members
We're added to the society, which at the time
of his coming was in very stagnant con
dltion. His friends feel very grateful to him
for what he has accomplished for the society
and, of course, sadly feel his departure at
this time when a man with his indomitahle
zeal and perseverance is 50 much needed to
keep alive the interest that has been started
for the upbuilding of the church that has 50
long renamed at d standstlll.

Life of the Sultan.

Richard Davey, in his book, "The
Sultan and His Subjects" says:
"As to the sultan himself, his life is
Of the simplest and most arduous. He
rises at 6 and works with his secreta-
ries until noon, when he breakfasts.
After that he takes drive or row on
tie lake, within his vast park. When
he returns, he gives audience to the
grand vizier, the sheik-ul-islam, and
other officials. At s O'Clock he dimes,
sometimes alone, not infrequently In
company with one Of the ambassadors.
Occasionally his majesty entertains the
wives and daughters Of the ambassadors
and other Pera notabilities at dinner.
The meal, usually very silent one, is
served in gorgeous style, a la Franchise,
on the finest of plate and the most ex-
quisite of porcelain. The treasures OF
silver and the Sevres at Yildiz are hors
de ligne, both in quantity and quality.
Very often in the evening Abdul Ham
i'd plays duets on the piano with his
younger children. He is very fond OF
light music, and his favorite score Is
that Of La File de Nine. Angot.' He
dresses like an ordinary European gen.
tleman, always wearing a frook coat,
the breast Of which, on great occasions,
is richly embroidered and blazing with
decorations.

High Priced Bumblebees.

Many years ago the farmers of Aus
tralia imported bumblebees from Eng
land and set them free in their clover
fields. Before the arrival of the bees
clover did not flourish in Australia,
but after their coming the farmers had
no more difficulty on that score. Mr..
Darwin had shown that bumblebees
were the only insects fond Of clover nec-
tar which possessed a proboscis sufi-
ciently long to reach the bottom of the
long, tubelike flowers and at the same
time body heavy enough to bend down
the clover head so that the pollen would
fall on the insects back and thus be
carried off to fertilize other flowers Of
the same species. According to writer

The Old Lady's Reply.

When called upon Johnston, / am free to
admit.
With only one eye could see the least bit;
The other, it's true, was a constant blurr,
And could not tell an OK from IA small yellow
cur.
We visited, | think, an hour or more,
And under his breath, I've no doubt that he
swore,
For now I'll confess, spoke very plain,
As I'd been swndled and swindled, time and
again.
lie was exceptionally courteous, jolly and gay,
And instead Of departing, wanted to stay;
So stay did, and was bound to be blessed,
For inside of ten minutes he gave me test
It proved, as / say, a blessing to me,
For now with both eyes plainly can see.
His tests, as he says, are actually free,
And I'm sure that his specs are cheap as
can be.
To all Of my neighbors and friends will say,
Poor fits and poor specs do surely not pay;
I've tried it, and tried 1t, time and again,
Each time to be vexed by blurring and pain.
The ones now have are certainly fine,
can read the small print, in the wee little
line,
A cambric needle can easily thread,
And capture fly If 1t falls in the bread.
I commend Mr.. J Johnston to everyone,
His method Of testing is simply fun,
II your ewes can be fitted, you may surely de
pend;
He will At you at first or succeed in the end.
see by reading the Enterprise,
Only this week he'll test your eyes
At the American House; give him a call,
For he'll not return till way in the fall.
