AUTUMN .

Quietly, Stealthily creeping along
AS beasts in search of prey,
The evening shadows round us throng
OF autumn's shortening day;
And from the homes whose windows wide
Still tell Of noontide heat,
AS children from each other hide
Aud then each other greet,
The lights shine out, then disappear.
And then Shine out once more;
and us one to the home draws near
And enters open door
In sitting room at table round
In place of garden bower,
The family are gathered f0und,--
The children'S evening hour.
Books are brought out and lessons learned
For school on coming day,
And having right to leisure earned,
Then merry games all play
And after that are apples brought
That IN home orchard grew,
And nuts the children gladly sought
IN woods which well they knew.
Then father from the Bible reads,
And hymn, TO old-time air,
Is sung, in which the mother leads,
And all unite in prayer.
Cool nights are said and mother's kiss
Our lips to qniet keep;
All ind in bed that highest bliss,
The tired child'S sweet sleep.
This is one charm that autumn brings,
A charm OF Wondrous power,
Where love within household brings,
The chidren's hour.

THE MA1L-oRDER HOUSE.

The following jingle, taken from the
American Lumberman, has lot of homely
truth in it. Like trading stamps, premium
schemes and other specious traps for the
unwary consumer, the mail order or cata-
lOgue house is of no benefit to anybody
but the house itself. The consumer is
"buncoed," the legitimate tradesman is de-
prived of business and basic retail business
principles are upset.
Shears aud Sawbuck kept store
Such as never was before.
City folks they wouldn't sell.
Wouldn't let 'em have smell,
Fetched their money-but by jlng
Couldn't buy a blessed thing;
Couldn't meet 'em face to face
An then sell 'em with good grace.
Country trade was what they sought,
Folks who'd pay for what they bought
For they saw it, hide or tail.
They sent catalogues by mail
Out to every blessed one
Gettin' mail at Possum Run.
We set up at night and read
When we'd 0rter been to bed.
Book was bout as big as sin
Had a lot of pictures in.
Had list of merchandise,
Every kind and every size
Givin' prices that they sWore
Knocked out every country store.
Looked so straight and seemed so true
bit at it--Jim did, too.
Jim's my neighbor cross the way
Best man ever worked i'll hay,
just let him top OIL stack
Sheds rain like turtles back.
Pleasure list to see him Work,
Never knew OIL Jim to shirk;
Swings a scythe like it was play
Love to watch him in the hay.
Well, we, like pair of fools,
Sent otf-got some haydn tools.
Jim got harness and a pillow,
range--I see it now;
Drat the thing, it was so light
Used it for a torch one night,
ThrOWd the blame thing in the yard
Use it now for renderln' lard.
Fore Jim used the pillow an hour
Found the blame thing wouldn't scour;
Tried his harneSS-brOke tug
Sought for SOace in his jug
In the cooler all that night
Jim reflected on his plight;
In the morning, Richard Stout,
Hardware merchant, bailed him out.
Jim said after that he'd stick
Close as bark to good OF Dick,
Since he left the Postum Jail
Says he won't buy goods by mail,
Says DICK cheaper, dHyuoW
Might have saved some on the pillow,
On the other goods some more,
At his OF friends hardware store.
Jim says, "We can't sell no truck
To such folks as ShearS-Sawbuck,
They'll take all our cash away,
But won't buy our corr or hay"
That seemed pretty strange to me,
So told OF Jim I'd see
So | wrote to them that night
Jist to see if Jim was right.
Ast'em what they'd pay for oats?
Could they use some likely shoats:
Had about four tons of hay
| could ship 'em right away,
Could furnish Mr.. Shears
With his family roastln' ears?
Also would my friend Sawbuck
buy some OF my garden truck ?'
Answer came one summer day,
said they couldn't use our hay,
Couldn't use our oats or ShoatS,
Didn't like our billy goats.
When they needed truck to eat
Bought it down on Water street
Sorry, but they must refuse
Anything but cash to use"

Mr.. Augustus Philbrook Gilkey, aged 27
years, died last Friday morning at O'Clock
of Brlght's disease. He had been i'll for
three years, and last winter, thinking the
warm weather would be beneficial, went to
Florida and remained there until spring.
He did seem to improve considerably while
there, and came home in fine hopes of
permanent Improvement. During the whole
summer his courage was unfailing, though
almost every other day he was confined to
the house, as the disease progressed. For
the last month he had been very low. He

held Monday at 1890 a. IN. O'Clock at the
home of Capt. W. S. Pendleton, where the
family is living. The floral tributes were
many and beautiful. No words of eulogy
could do more than justice to the character
of the deceased. He leaves host of rela-

the entire community. The Halloween
