The Rev. Fortune seems to be
animated by the spirit of brotherly
love, which should be manifested
between the different Christian
denominations. Sunday he had
arranged for services at the Bapt-
list church, but after the arrival of
himself and congregation, he
found that it was the day of the
regular monthly Methodist service
and he promptly announced that
they would adjourn in a body to
the sister church, which they did,
and Mr.. Fortune being invited to
preach, delivered a very inter-
esting sermon. In the evening a
union meeting was held at the
Baptist church.
The fine weather we are having
this spring has enabled the
farmers to get an earlier start than
for several previous seasons, and
they are all improving the time.
The shipment of hubs by the

corner of the patent Office building. He

conductors swore, but the frog held tight.

The struggling man paid no attention
to the advice, but tugged at the obstinate
foot.
."Take off your Shoe shouted an ap-
take OF your shoe" chorused the
crowd.
The dandy blushed, but continued to
tug away.

Likewise he appreciated the danger he
