week, the guest of friends and relatives,

Lightning has been very frequent here
of late and during the storm of Tuesday
night tree was struck back of Shay's
house at Fools Creek, and we are told
that Mr.. Shay was out OF bed and dressed
before he realized what was the matter.
No doubt he thought it was telephone

James B. Littlefeld, wife and children.
G. L. Littlefied and family, Mrs. Maze
and children and Mrs. J. w. Littlefield
were guests of the Rupert family last
Thursday evening, and good time was
had by all present. The men gave them
treat with the violins, cornet and piano.
The comic part of it was that Rupert and
son were playing violin and piano duet
when they arrived and everybody got in
to the room and seated before their pres
ence was known. Sort of surprise
party, that.
Mrs. Thomas Miller attended the Sun
day School picnic at Henrys Mill on
Saturday last, but Mr.. Miller had to at
tend to the stock and came home in the
evening missing this pleasant event.
John Bennett gave very pleasant
dancing party at Minister on Saturday of
last week which was a grand success, and
everything went off without any one be-
ing offended. There was no drinking in

thing a success-if the fellows only
thought so-and the ladies have a nicer
time, too.

it Charlie.

mer.
Several apple trees around this place
are loaded this year but are not much
good except for sauce and cider. The
children have been eating them since
early in the spring, about as soon as the
blossoms were off, and no one has died or
even been sick. Don't think we need be
vaccinated.
Automobiles were plenty along this
part on Sunday, and some one lost the
cap to compression cup which was
picked up by the children and is in the
care of the mayor. We were pleased to |
see some of our old friends from Marien-
vile pass through.
Miss Mable Bsughman was a caller in |
our town Sunday and the children were
disappointed that she did not stop longer.
She was our teacher last year.
Warren Cook of May burg was visitor
in the village Sunday and called on Ru-
pert who was running the pump station

Canadian reciprocity agreement into
operation may prove unfortunate for
President Taft as candidate for re-elec-
