very nice one" But little wheat has
yet been sown In this locality.
There is a difference existing be-

here as to the price for Keiffer pears.
The former are Offering II cents per
basket which the latter will not accept.
A carload was made up Tuesday for
shipment to Pittsburg Sweet potatoes
are also arriving in liberal quantities
for shipment. Edward Ford, of near
lCheswold has been a successful grower
and Notwithstanding the drought, sas
dug already over 1.2O0 baskets and
hopes to get 1900 baskets from four

a profitable investment as he will
doubtless do this year.

nassy About Buryine the Dead.

6a0ty About Burytng the Dead.
One night Chaplain Jones, Of the
Texas, heard volley firing on the Cuban
coast, which was being guarded by the
blockading squadron, and was told that
marines were being landed from the
Marblehead. The next morning Captain
McCalla came alongside of the Texas
In his launch and announced that four
Of his men had been killed, and that
there was still fighting. Chaplain Jones
then approached Captain Philip and
said that he would like to go ashore
and look after the wounded and read
the services for the dead. Captain
Philip gave instant permission, and the
chaplain prepared to go ashore with a
boatlOad of marines that was in charge
Of a young lieutenant. AS the worthy
chaplain clambered over the side of the
Texas the lieutenant looked up from
the boat and called out:
"Where are you going"
Lieutenant" replied the chaplain.
II am going to bury the dead"
For goodness sake, give us a chance
to get killed first" rejoined the officer.
Lieutenant, l am going to bury the
dead that have already fallen" re-
sponded the chaplain, whereupon the
lieutenant quickly replied:
Il beg your pardon, chaplain. l was
too hasty."-Buffalo Express.

h.oti INTENT.

4 steadfast high intent IL bankable
On this or any other plane.
A nendish motive, found at last, will tell
The criminal. and prove him sane.
'Tis the red fury in the very blood
That gives the color to our life,
And the intent, whichever. bad or good,
Begets the brOods Of love or strife.
Happy for US, II we can. fold BY fold.
Unwrap Gods universe, aud see
Where refuse only is, and where the gold,
And which il best for you and me!
II there might early dawn on our dull
eyes
The sweet repose Of boundless hope.
80 that the soul serene might realize
Its wondrous destiny and scope7
II its enormous claims would early give
The high chivalric sense Of right,
And marry this to wisdom, we might live
Empurpled In the robes Of might.
And thus, with quenchiess faith in noble
things.
And the infinitude Of good,
Our high intent will spread it's heavenly
wings,
And mount where whitest saints have
stood.
Then we shall herd NO more with mur
muring ones,
But cut the sinews Of our grief,
And hearken to the sweet inspiring tones
OF nm enrapturing belief.
And live, with room enough for self-de-
nial.
And trust enough for each event,
And God enough to cheaper every trial
And glorify our high intent.

UnWiae Marriages.

The test of equality. such as should
exist between man and wife. must be
applied to character, to intellect, and
to taste. For example. 1t is quite con-
ceIvable that a woman may be more
fortunately placed than the man with
whom she falls In love, that Il ar mode
Of life when under her fathers roof
may he considerably more comfOrta-
BILE, or even luxurious. than the life
she can hore to live during the earlier
years of the married state, and that
her pecuniary resources as her fathers
daughter may seem to dwarf the in
come Of her husband, and yet the real
inequality between the pair, in later
years, may take the form of wifely IN
feriority. The husband. by his type OF
character, his energy. his force of
mind. his adaptability to work that
carries personal distinction, may rise to
adorn, to even to passably sustain. The
advance Of the man may carry him be
yond the woman, and so difficulties
may grow with the years. The only
safeguards against such results are TO
be found in power and adaptablllty Of
character, intelligence. fine and recep-
tive taste. and general good sense
Where these exist husband and wife
will develop together. Woe to them II
they do not! For love in a somewhat
inferior person Is sensitive, Jealous, re-
sentful of its position and rights, and
the continual assertion of these pro
duces continual pickering and fnal un-
happiness.

The intense conservatism Of the Brit

OF a young Englishman who came to

that the German buyers, in turn, sold
1t in England. So he conceived the log.

Ing the lamp black direct, which ap-
peared to be certain Of success, for he
was able to say to the English firms:
"Instead Of buying my lamp black

Ioe and HE Little DOG,


lac teacher Of a district school In
Maine tells a story that reminds one of
Mary and her little lamb. only 1t is of
Joe and his little dog.
Joe was a boy about years old, and
was devoted to a small, lank puppy.
Out Of school hours boy and dog were
inseparable. and Joe apparently could
not reconcile himself to the necessity
Of leaving the dog at home. For sew
eral mornings the teacher allowed the
puppy to remain at Joe's feet under the
desk.
Then there came q day when the
small dog could not be kept quiet, but
frisked about to the delight Of the
school and the dismay of the teacher.
Joe she said. firmly. you must
take that dog out"
Joe looked at her mournfully, but
picked up the pup. and with its head
against his cheek started for the door.
The bcy's feelings were evidently hurt.
but he said nothing until he reached the
door. then giving the teacher a re-
prOachful look. with a plying glance
toward the dog, he said slowly, And
he's named for you"

punishment in curious ways. Once
while in a foreign port he suddenly or

of the hold without delay. After two
hours hard work his order was carried
out, and he then directed that a large
chew Of tobacco which had been
thrown under one Of the guns be hoist

cruise was such an objectionable of
