At their late communion the
Presbyterian congregation at Lew
lstown introduced an individual
communion set. The Lewistown
Sentinel says. The set comprises
tiny glass cups, forty of which go
in each holder, in which the elders
pass them to the communicates in
the pews, and the latter after use
place the glasses in neat recepta-
cles attached to the pews. This
permits of the solemn ceremony be-
ing performed expeditiously and
without the least confusion.
In fit of despondency j. B.
Rennard of near Chadd's Ford,

upper part of the barn and put
ting the moose about his neck he
was talking to his hired man in
the basement of the barn. A short
time after the conversation Mrs.
Rennard went to the barn and up
stairs to call her husband to din
ner. She found him dangling at
the end Of the rope with broken
neck.
