Thieves Visit Cellars

Last Saturday night or early Sunday
morning, it looked very much as though
somebody had a penchant for canned
goods. The cellars of T. j. Jones, j. II.
Pew, G.. A. Bryant and X. C. McFar-
land were entered and deprived of many
cans of tempting fruit. The night hawk
thieves, evidentally, were not bent on
stocking up on common necessaries of
life left bacon, ham and the like
undisturbed-even angel food had no
charms for them. They were in quest
of the fruit the Woodworking house,
wife had prepared over a hot stove in
the sweltering June time. Well, when
you look at the matter seriously, the
man who orders you to throw up your
hands on the highway is a prince in COM
parison with the one who in the dead of
night sneaks down cellar and tackles a
defenseless fruit jar, something which
rightly belongs to the feminine part of
the household. -Andover Gazette.

Tho Northern Lights.

Nature has several ways of light
ing up at night. BY the welcome
CLEAN Of stars and moon the dark
ness is very frequently broken, and
occasionally by the lightning flash;
but the grandest of nighttime illum-
nations are those of the aurora bore
alis, or, as they are commonly known,
the northern lights. These are seen
only in the high ATTITUDES of the
north, although faint suggestions of
them are sometimes visible as far
south as the New England states. To
see them at their best one would need
to go away up north, into the land
Of great, silent space and wonder.
There they spread over the whole
northern sky, reaching from east to
west and high up to the very roof of
the great outdoors. A sky riotously
illuminated with the northern lights
Is absolutely awe-inspiring, and one
gazes in rapture.
