Breezy Letter From Rev. Geo. b.
Shoemaker. Oranges Cheap
er than Apples.

Two years ago to-day | was ir
old McConnellsburg, after an alb
sence of twenty years, looking in
to the faces of old time friends
and trying to guess the names
OF one time boys and girls who
had grown out of my recollection,
How did enjoy the privilege OF
those few days among the people
OF my old home! l am free to con
fess that with the coming OF
spring, the longing begins to
grow within me to see the sold
scenes" again; and if | were
"fush" with money / would, e'er
long, be vending my way to old
Fulton for the three R's-Rest-
Recreation, and "Reminiscences. -
On the money question, at least,
for travelling purposes, 1 am
somewhat like the Irishman who
said to his friend, "Plase, sur,
will yez lend me yure pipe and to-
backy, and fale in yure pocket if
yez have niver match, while ]
load her," was for the material
with which to proceed with his
morning smoke. But I'll come
sometime, if the Lord will per-
NIT me.
While in one of our grocery
stores the other day, l noticed
some navel oranges and apples
placed side by side. The oranges
were marked forty cents a peck,
and the apples were marked six
ty-five cents a peck. Which
would you have taken? Oranges?
Well did not, | took the apples,
and they tasted good and high
too.
The letter signed echo" in last
weeks issue interested me very
much. | have some very
distinct recollections of num-
ber of persons mentioned therein;
but have not the slightest idea
who ''Echo" is. No doubt he is a
school teacher wonder if the
following happened in his school.
Teacher; Johnnie, you will
have to stay after school tonight. I"
Johnnie (dolefully): 81 can't
stay; I've got to go to the doctor
and have an oppur-a-shun."
Teacher: "Well, I'll operate
first"
We are having delightful wealth
er. To-day while the sun shined
brightly, and there were appar-
emily no clouds, or, but very thin
ones, there were patches of rain
bows scattered all over the sky.
They were to the north and south
of the sun, and above and below
the sun, aud one of considerable
length Immediately over our
heads in the sky. / never saw
such display before, and they
continued most of the morning.
"Sun dogs"-bright spots on Ell
ther, or both sides of the sun
are common here, but the display
to-day was of rainbows.
We closed months revival
meetings in our church on last
Sunday night. One hundred per-
sons professed conversion. The
meetings were characterized by
the old time fervor and enthusi-
asm. Almost every night some
one or more were converted. The
closing meeting on Sunday night,
March 2, was one that will long
be remembered as time when
the Spirit manifested himself in
convicting and converting power.
To God be the praise and glory
for His marvellous work of grace.
Miss Anna Gleason an evangelist
from Illinois, led the meetings to
this glorious result.
To all my old friends a greeting
and an adieu.
