People who study nature say there
are plenty of signs of a coming hard
winter. The pear trees have blossomed
the second time and there has prob
ably not been such a large crop of
grapes. The woods are full of fox
grapes and wild grapes of all kinds.
The persimmOn trees are extra heavy
laden, and nuts of all kinds will be
more plentiful than for many years
past. All these signs, the naturalists
say, point to a cold, bleak winter, with
plenty of snow and ice.

The Curse of Rum and What It Leads To.
Renaissance.

Some twenty years ago embarked for my home
There was passenger on board the City of Rome.
Who had too much whiskey both inside and out
1t was plain to be seen, as he staggered about.
Two bottles in his pockets full of whiskey I
think,
For every now and then he would take drink.
The whiskey in his pockets could have done no
harm.
But all over the ship there was great alarm
Some said he is crazy, some said he's insane,
Wen have him locked up and who can he blame?
The captain soon ordered him locked in a cell,
What this young man suffered who can tell?
All across the Atlantic after the first day
This young man in his cell was compelled to
stay
By the way he cut up we could easily tell.
The second day he got out by breaking the door
He was soon recapLured and locEed up once
more;
The captain ordered him a straight jacket to
wear,
In this straight jacket he could neither rent or
tear.
In this uncomfortable sack he lay on the floor,
So he was helpless and could not kick at the door
saw him through the window, he looked like
one dead,
All I could see of him was only his head.
If he could have been allowed to get over his
spree,
He could have gone about merry land free;
But the whiskey in his pockets kept him drunk
too long,
Six days out Of seven he sang different song.
This young man was left on the City of Rome,
The captain was ordered to take him back home;
So he was not allowed to land on our shore,
For we have drunkards enough, and we want no
more.
What a curse this drinking of beer and rum
wish could quit it or had never begun.
My wife so love and treat her so bad
And when get sober l feel so sad.

= The local option meeting held in the
NJ. P. Church of this place last Friday
evening was quite we'll attended and
the large audience seemed to appre-
ciate the efforts of the speakers, DR..
Watt and W. o. Hoffecker, of Smyrna
to set forth and make plain the object,
and advantages of Local Option. Ger
tain it is that they struck a responsive
chord, for since that time, almost the
sole topic of conversation has been of
Temperance and local option. 1t is
now announced that next Friday even
ing Mr.. Wales, lawyer from Salisbury
Md, W. 7. Smithers, esq of Dover,

LETTER TO EDWARD G. WALLS.
Smyrna Del

Dear Sir: Such experiences as this
are occurring all oyer the country.
Judge I. ID. Fairchild owns two
houses, exactly alike, in Lufkin,
Texas. J. NJ. Terrence painted both
houses, one Devoe, 154 gallons; the

same price, 5 gallons. That 25 gallon
paint is weak and Is per cent. whiting;
that's why it took 81 gallons more.
You can learn for nothing what he
had to pay-for.
Yours truly
