Merry Xmas at Falrylew Earm,

At nine O'Clock Christmas morning,
we all gathered at Father Bailey's to
see what old Chris Krinkle had left for
the big and little. There was a
splendid surprise awaiting us all. A
Christmas tree loaded with presents for
all, and happier lot of faces you seldom
see. Little Cora Bailey was one Of the
happiest little ones. She thought that
Santa Claus was a very fine old fellow
While her little brother, Master Hallard
Bailey wore a smile that indicated that
he was we'll pleased, Alter seeing all
tho presents the party was reminded
that Mother Bailey had good feast
waiting, so we all retired to the dining
room, where the best sight Of all-es-
pecially for the hungry man-met our
eye. That we all did justice to the
| Christmas breakfast but family eZ-
presses it. Having an invitation to a
Christmas dinner at Mr.. Charles Chapd-
ler's we all had to get a move on our
selves to be on time for another good
feast, A very pleasant time we had,
and the dinner was splendid. Mrs
Chandler must be eomplimented on Civ
ing her company such nicQ treat for
Christmas. After having nice visit
and wishing for another merry Xmas
we all departed for our homes, wishing
them a happy new year, Those present

Electricity For Balky Horses.

A Pennsylvania gentleman owned
n horse that would have been yalua-
bic but for what seemed an inerad-
icable vice of baking, says the
Youths Companion. A friend sug-
gested that electricity might cure him.
The gentleman purchased a small
storage battery, connected 1t by wires
to the bit and crupper, and placed 1t
ina the cart to which the horse was at
tached. AS was anticipated. the horse
refused to move and stood with all
four feet braced.
Then the owner touched the button
connected with the battery. When
the horse felt the shock he snorted,
Jumped. and began to move off at a
lively pace. Every day for week he
was treated to the same lesson. AS a
result. his owner declares that the
horse is completely cured of his evil
ways.
The West Pennsylvania Humane
Society. which investigated the gen
tleman's method, came to the conclu
sion that "A small amount OF electricity
used in this way was more humane
than a whip.

compelled to announce that there was

claim, which has caused scarcely less
derision in the country than did the
original compact. The agreement was
