JOHN N. JOHNSTON
Re,ires from the soIiphone to Engage
 in Other Business.

John N. Johnston, who has been the Soliphone' travelling representa- tive leaves us with the beginning of the New Year and will engage in other business. Mir. Johnston has been with the Soliphone a year and nearly four months. Our business and personal relations with him have been exceedingly pleasant and we regret |, lose him.
 During his connection with the Soliphone MT Johnston has spent little more than half of his time among the farmers of Greene county. He has added to our list of subscrib- CTS to the Weekly over 300 new names, has collected from several hundred old subscribers on past due accounts and has secured consider- able job printing and some adver- Using, He has spent oyer 200 nights ,n the hemes of the people of the county and with two exceptions has been entertained free of charge. In one of these cases the citizen who charged him dollar for staying sll night had an imaginary grievance against the Soliphone and in the other ease the party was a stranger in the county, having but recently moved in from another state, but in less than month he gave the dollar back to have the Soliphone sent to him a year, so that the expense among the farmers of Greene county have only been one dollar for over 200 nights lodging and between 6Ol and 700 meals for himself and horse. In numerous instances, after being entertained free for the night his host would give him silver dollar t, have tie coliphone sent for ( year.
 This is what we csll genuine hospitality and we don't beleiv' there is another county in the world that has nor. of it than can t' found in Greene couItv. It show' too, that MT. Johnston is popula1 with the reople of Greene count

Quite mum Der of their friends were present on this occasion to participate in the merry making and to congratulate and wish them we'll. At 6:30 the guests repaired to the dining room where the table almost groaned beneath it's weight of good things, aud each guest felt that nothing more was needed to make the feast more tempting.
 After this games were enjoyed and it was amusing to see these dignified people, forget all but just the fun and endeayor once more, to pin the poor old ''Donkeys' tail in the correct position.
 May the happy couple live in love and joy and peace, to see many an other anniversary.
