Memory.
[Gem Garfield. in one of his college poems
wrote, these lines]
When the rough battle of the day is dOne,
And evening’s peace falls gently on the heart
I bound away across the noisy years
Into the utmost verge 'of Memory’s land,
And wandering thence along the rolling
years
I see the shadow of my former self
Gliding from coildhood up to man’s estate,
The path of youth Winds down through many
a vale
And on the brink of many a deep abyss
From out whose darkness comes no ray of
life
Save that a phantom dances o’er the gulf
And beckons toward the verge.

THE EFFECT OF HIS FRENCH—HIS HARDSHIPS
AND TRIALS IN BOULOGNE.
Detroit Free Press.
The sun rose bright and fair the first morn-
ing we were in France. On our arrival at
Boulogue, my wife suggested that we should
get a carriage, go into the country, and see
sunny FrunCe. Going to the stand, I hailed
driver.
“ Do you speak English?"
“ Oh, yaas.”
“ All right; drive us out into the country;
take us out one road and back another—any
direction you please.”
The driver said “Yeas,” as before, and we
rattled up the street, with its cobbly pave-
ment. Suddenly we turned from the harbor
and drove up a street to the summit of a hill.
The driver stopped and waved his hand, evi-.
dehtly inviting attention to the splendid pan-
orama of town and country that lay below.
Having enjoyed the prospect for some time,
I suddenly recollected that I was not paying
the driver for standing still, so I said: “ All
right, old man, that’s very fine. You can go
ahead, now. "
At last a turn brought us out on the front
street again, but nearer the sea than where
we started. The driver looked smilingly on
us.
“ Look here,” said I, glancing at him, “are
you going into the country or are you not ?”
"Oh, yes, said he. and he began to .rattle
off something in French. It now began to
dawn upon me that I knew as little English
as I knew French. I went back into the car-
riage in despair. “ Driveon," I yelled ; move
—proceed—-get out of here.”
I got out my ”Tourists’ French Pronounc-
ing Hand book for the Use of Travelers who '
have Only an 'Imperfect Knowledge of the
French Language—Sixth Edition.” The first
column gave the English,the next corres-
ponding French, and the third the pronun-
ciation. I ran down the column, reading
aloud :
What 1s it usual to give ?
I’ut my portmanteau in the cab.
Tell the driver where to take me
Thanks for your attention.
“That’s the last," I said to my wife. “ It
now goes into the journeys by railway. I
wish I could tell him where to go.”
“Can't you find the word ‘country’ any»
where ?” said my wife.
“The nearest I @me to it is this:
“Phrase—the inhabitants of countries;
“French—Des habitants de different Pays.
“Pronounced—Dam ahbeeting deefairang
Paiyee.
“ I’ll try pays on him,” I said. I stepp
out. We were in a secluded street. “ S
here," said I. He looked resigned. “ Would
you mind driving to the paiyee f—le paiyee,
you kno w-les paiyee—du paiyee—des paiyee
-seel . Some of them must be right.”
We anxiously watched his puzzled face for
signs of intelligence.
“ Savai voo le sh’maing?”_‘asked the driver.
“It’s your inning this time, old man.
You’ve got me there. I don’t savai voo worth
a cent, I regret to say.”
Here a grand idea struck me. I went to a
lone tree that stood near, and, calling his at-
tention to it, gave amagnificcnt sweep of my
arm toward the horizon.
“ Oh, wee, wee,” said he, with pleasure
beaming from his countenance, and I once
more got into the oueehorse shay. We rattled
along the stony street, and partly ascended
another bill, until we came to a trim little
The cabman stopped and descended from the
seat, beaming at me for approval.
“ Voolai, woo alial 0 park 1’"
“You‘ll have to talk better English than
that if you want me to answer your.”
With a loud voice he called to a person on
the other side of the street, an acquaintance.
The‘party came across and the driver,with
many expressive gestures,aud pointing scorn-
fully at me several times, spoke to the new
arrival. Addressing me, the stranger said :
“ Le cochal—he not know what you want
,him to do."
“ You've hit it the first time, I want him to
drive us into the country—away out.”
He translated that to the coacher who rap-
idly and indignantly answered. Then to me
the stranger expounded: He say—1e cochal‘
--why you not tell me zat before? He will-
ing to drive anywhere want, but he sink you
might tell him what your pleasure is—tc
drive.”
“ Great heavens l Why, I’ve been talking
of nothing else for the last. two hours."
Once more we left the little park, and
climbed slowly up the‘hill past the old town.
By and by we passed a chateau or.two sur-
rounded by high walls and dense foliage, and
then we began to ascend from the valley.
” You turn back now,” 1 said to the driver.
“Yeas, ” said be, coming to his old word
again, but keeping steadily on.
" I believe," said I, as a chill came over
me, “ that old imbecile will drive on till we
meet some one who speaks French and Eng-
lish, if it takes till this time next year.”
I stopped him, and, going to the horse’s
head, led the animal into the road and turned
to the left, and then, pointing down it, got in
again. It was a delightful leafy country
lane, wnich brought us to a fine old chateau
of stone and red brick, with quaint turrets
and,many little balconies, and a moss-grown
roof that had once been red tile. Here the
road stopped. I hurriedly caught the horse
by the head and tried to turn him round be-
fore the inmates came out, but was too laie.
A portly and exceedingly French gentleman
stepped from one of the windows to the lawn
while several servants, quieting a dog, ap-
peared at the iron gate. The party individ-
ual called. I feared it was for the dog.
But two rather pretty young ladies answered
him by stepping from the window recess,
where they had been concealed,and evidently
laughing at us, Alas! they also spoke in
French.
“Well, this is at least a relief," I said.
“The first good-looking girls I’ve seen in
France. If that one in white knew how to
do up her hair she would be decidedly hand-
some.” _
The young lady referred to instantly re-
plied : “ Thank you, sir; and in return for
your suggestion I shall be happy to explain to
my father to what cause we are indebted for
the pleasure of this visit. ”
I collapsed. “My husband, "said my wife
would kindly tell the driver that we want to
go back to Boulogne by way of the cliffs it
would has great service to us. "
They directee the Coacher. Silence
reigned as we went back. “ I wonder," said
I, at last, “ if they would hang a person in
France for throwing a coacher like ours over
the cliff 1”
My wife looked dreamily at the sun ,settiug
in the English channel, and mildly replied;
“ It’s a good thing they don t hang a person
in France for making silly blunders, or I fear
I would soon be a widow." .

Does Teaching Teach ?
Probably few intelligent observers of the
methods of instruction now in vogue in our
public schools have failed to ask themselves
this question, and it is equally probable that
in nine cases out of ten when they have
been able to answer it at all it has been in
such a way as to leave a considerable degree
of doubt still remaining regarding the matter.
Of course, teaching does teach—somethmg,
but does it teach those things which the
average public school pupil most needs to
know? And if so, does it teach them ina
way calculated -to produce the best results f
These are questions which Superintendent
Stone, of the Springfield, Massachusetts,pub-
lic schools, set himself to answer in his an-
nual report made a day or tWO since, and the
conclusions at which he arrives are well
worthy the consideration of every public
school teacher in the land. Having sought
to find what effect the schools were having
on pupils by inquiry among business men
who employ young people, he reports that
“the schools generally stand high, ” but that
most people think them capable of much 1m-
provement, and that such improvement ought
to be forthcoming. Some are quite free and‘
even severe in their criticism. The way
that arithmetic‘ 1s taught' 1n the schools is not
thought well adapted tu-prchYETOFD'usmmr'
" much of it is not practical, and is often
more difficult than anything that will be met
with in business; " and this work taxes the
pupil’s strength and time to such an extent
that he cannot have practice in that part of
arithmetic that would really be useful to him.
"It is said thatfivhile they can untie hard
mathematical knots, they are not expert in"
adding a longpolumn of figures when they
encounter it in the ledger.” With this Mr.
Stone agrees. Practical men do not think
much of the geography learned at school,
especially the mass of details which children
are compelled to memorize. but which they
are unable to remember afterward, and
which would be worth nothing to them if
they could. “ As to certain habits which
are the result of moral training, such as 11-
delity to duty and to one’s employer and his
interests, punctuality, industry and self-con.
trol, the habit of minding one’s own busi-
ness,” and common sense and good judg-
ment,———there is a general belief that the
schools do not do their duty. The discipline
of the schools is more humane than it used
to be, but wholesome character development
has not kept pace with the intellectual cul-
ture.
Mr. Stone, however, is not one of those
individuals who stop with criticism. ‘He
offers a number of .practical suggestions
whose value is not confined to the public
schools of Springfield. In regard to the
study of arithmetic he believes the results
not worth the time and study they cost, and
recommends “ that the text be pruned to the
minimum, that the explanation of a few
leading principles be emphasized. and that
practice work be greatly extended in fre-
quency and amount." With regard to the
study of geography, Superintendent Stone
says that while the elementary text-book
may be used as a reading book and source of
information to be looked up by the pupil,
the instruction at that stage should be oral,
given by a teacher full of the subject. Fur-
ther on in the study the text-book should be
used sparingly, the topical system adopted,
and accompanied with much map drawing.
power of expression in speaking and writ-
ing, the study of language, with less techni-
cal grammar but more practice, aided by a
wider acquaintance with good literature
outside the reading lesson. “Not many
years since," observes Mr. Stone, “a person
was called heretical who yentured to ques-
tion the propriety or necessity of parsing
and grammatical analysis; now the persou
who recommends much of such work below
the high school, or the last years of the
grammar school,” is behind the times.
In conclusion the superintendent addresses
himself to the main question, “Does teach-
ing teach?" and in answering it criticises
with pardonable warmth the mere “ formal,
lifeless hearing of recitations," declaring
that real teaching can only be done by a
method based on a thorough knowledge of
the child’s nature. “ The true teacher," he
says, “ will encourage the learner to go to
the sources of knowledge, and will aid him
in developing and directing his own self-
activities.” Nothing i more marvelous t6
me than the eagerness and capacity of
young children for’iearsing when they are
suitably encouraged and guided and allowed
their proper freedom. But it becomes a se-
rious question for us to answer, whether by
our educational methods we do not deadeu
the sensibilities and chill the aspirations of
the young seeker after knowledge. The
inquiry; is certainly pertinent, why children
study so much and know so little—Palla-
dium.

The Pewter Agoin New England.
In the early New England days wooden
ware was in far more common use than
would be supposed, and a handsome set of
pewter was an enviable possession. As for
china, any amount of that betokened unusual
prosperity, There was very little money in
the farming districts of New England for
many years, and numerous persons live in
vastly more comfortable fashion now on the
same land which gave their ancestors a bare
living fifty years ago. We can have no idea
what a serious thing it was in the last centu-
ry, or early in the present one, to undertake
any new expense; for instance, sendinga boy
to college. To raise an extra two or three
hundred a year meant that the men and
women both should drudge early and late,
and deny themselves most cruelly. Any one
who looks closely at the signs that are left
us of the pewter-plate age in Massachusetts
will find much that is interesting. and he\
may discover in the fields the nameless
graves of many a hero and hercifi, unmark-
ed except by a rough lichened-stone gathered
from the abundapt harvestof the soil. :' The-
building of so many mills and the rapid
growth of the manufacturing villages have
afforded better markets; and beside the
money that the young people have earned
and brought home. the income of the farms
has been made larger year by year, and the
farm houses and the way of living in them
have steadily grown more comfortable. The
pewter was not all melted into bullets where-
with to fight our focs,but it is fast disappear-
ing in other ways; the great platters were
one by one gathered to their rest by the tin
peddlers when pewter was high in the war
time and the little plates have been melted
on the stoves by careless cooks. —Atlant1'c

Curious if True,
HOW HIS FATE WAS SEALED BY HIS RIVAL'S
ENGAGEMENT RING.
A New York cg'espondent tells of a rich
young man, now going to the dogs, whose
history has in it some romance. He was en-
gaged to a lady now married, who in a mo-
ment of pique broke with him and took the
ring of another. The discarded lover in the
best of taste wore his disappointment lightly,
and in order that there might be no break in
his relations with the family, which would
cause scandal, he began to devote himself
assiduously to a younger sister. He went to
a reception one evening with the sister. and
his former fiancee with her lover was there.
The latter was called away dfiing the eve-
ning by a telegram. and our hero escorted
both ladies home. As the three entered the
carriage to go home, the discarded lover bo-
gan pleasantly to 'jest with the lady about her
new engagement. “ Oh," he said, “I believe
you will break it. You are famous, you
know, for that."
“ But I am now engaged for good,” she
said. “ See. I have a ring, and you did not
give me one.”
“ No, ” he replied, “ our afisir _._wss not
quit. so serious. But I dare say you are too
superstitious to take the ring off and let me
see it. "
“ Certainly not, " she said, drawing a bean-
tiful ring from her finger.
The young man examined it and tried to
make out an Italian inscription that was in-
side. A moment later the carriage jolted so
as to divert the thoughts of all fora minute
or two, and then the lady interrupted the
flow of conversation by saying:
" Where is the ring f“
The gentleman said, “ I put it in your
lap.”
A search was made and it could not be
found. The girls shook out their dresses
and a patient inspection was made of every
crauuy in the carriage, but in vain. The
lady lost her temper and began to accuse her
escort of keeping her ring. He protested
on his honor that he had returned the ring
to her by laying it upon her lap. She denied
that he had put it back there, and her sister
said the last she saw of it was when the gen-
tleman was examining it. When the car-
riage arrived at the home of the young
women they got out carefully and examined
the sidewalk closely after they crossed it to
see if they dropped the ring. They asked
the escort to step in and see their father.
The old gentleman scolded right and left—
the daughter for trifling with the engagement
ring, and the gentleman for presuming to pay
attention to the daughter after their own en-
gagement was broken. The young man as.
serted that he believed that the loss of the
ring was adopted as a pretext to break the
friendship. The young lady insisted that he
had taken the ring and kept it. He offered
to allow the father to search him. but he was
requested to end his interview and his rela-
tions with the family at once. He soon
found that he was branded in society as a
thief, and as he was formally cut by some of
those whom he had considered as his best
friends, he ceased at once to go into society.
Soon after he became possessed by inheri-
tance of a fortune,and being utterly disheart-
ened, he turned into a melancholy spend—
thrlft, and began to run the road that leads to
the dogs.
“ But was he guilty 1’ "
“ Allow me to finish. The engagement
ring was replaced by the one who gave it
with a new one, and the marriage was duly
celebrated. Some months ago the bride was
ripping up her old party dress, which was of

she drew a thread that held a fiounce the ring

Throwing Money Away.
The folly of advertising in catalogues and
that sort of catch-penny afiairs was well il-
lustrated in Atlanta during the late attractive
exhibition in that city. An enterprising non-
resident cauvasser appeared there in due sea-
son before the exhibition opened and collect-
ed a goodly sum of money from her business
men for the insertion of captivating cards in
a catalogue which he proposed to publish
and circulate during the rush of visitors to
the show. It seems that the speculator car-
ried out his contract so far as issuing the
catalogue and inserting the advertisements
went ; but, from some cause not yet explain-
ed, so far as we have seen, the pamphlets in
question, when shipped to Atlanta, were al-
lowed to remain boxed up in the freight de-
pot there, instead of being circulated among
visitors, as was probably intended, and as
was certainly expected. Of course, under
these circumstances, the credulous adverti-
sers are satisfied that their investments are a
dead loss; but they are really about as well
off as if the catalogues had all been distribu-
ted as promised. - People who visit an exhi-
bition worth seeing and studying, as the At-
lanta exposition unquestionably was, do not
waste their time reading advertisements on
the fly leaf ofja catalogue or in give-sway ad.
vertlsing sheets. If they want to learn any-
thing of the resources and business induce-
ments of the place where it is held they look
to the columns of its wide-awake and well-
establishednewspapers for such information.
It is entirely safe to say that if the disap-
pointed Atiautaus had paid the same amount
of money to their bright and enterprising
daily papers, they would have reaped ten
fold more returns from such investment than
they could possibly have realized from the
other source, even if every copy of a large
edition of the promised catalogue had been
placed in the hands of vistors.

in the morning. or after they have retired to
their rooms at night, for such information as'

' Robbers.
George Iverson, alias Nelson, arrested in
Boston last week in a variety theatre for
attempting to rob Tax Collector TurtlehillA
of n Falls, came before a justice Tues-
day and was held for trial in the superior
court. He denies that he is the man. In
the evening of November 28th, Collector
Turtlehill, who is old, and his young daugh-
ter sat together in their parlor. The door
opened suddenly and let in two men, who
wore masks made of hsudkerchiefs. Pistols
were drawn and aimed at the occupants of
the room. “Your money or your life i" was
demanded. Tittlehill at first said nothing.
’ Suddenly he rolled from his chair and sur-
prised the intruders by disappearinginan-
other room. One burglar fied and the other
was about to do so when Turtle reappeared
with a loaded gun. The daughter threw
herself in front of her father and begged him
not to commit murder. Consequently both
men escaped for a time, but lverson was
eventually arrested. The other man is still
at large.

It is full time that the serious danger. of
indulging in chloral, morphis and other such
drugs should be understood To a woman of

way, but now the downward path is male
very easy. First, the inventor of. chloral
smoothed the way, unconsciously but surely.
A woman who would have shudderen, with
genuine horror at the idea of drinking too
much wine, thinks little of taking repeated
doses of chloral. Women think too much of
the look of a thing. A brandy bottle on the
dressing table would be too horrible. But

ing of. And yet the brandy bottle may be
the safer of the two. For the very reason
that it represents a more degraded form of
vice, it is safer than the small dark which
the chemist sends in so daintly wrapped in
white paper,ses]ed with wax, and labelled
“Poison." A thousand womanly instincts
and feminine fears drag back from the form-

a woman lolling languidly in her carriage, in
her box at the opera, or even at her own
table, with a filmy, dazed look in her eyes,

her. We at once account for it: “Chloral.”

nerveless, his brighter self effsced, his late]-
lect flickering like a dying light. his business
faculties dwindling, slovenly in mind as well
as person, inaccurate in statements,§aud care-
lessas to linen; and we say: “Chloral.” It
has become an accepted fact, a recognized
doom for a certain per centsge of our acquai-
tance. It' 1s an old story. Something fresh
was demanded,sud' in response to the demand
a new vice was invented.
When physicians discovered that pain could
be subdued .by inserting under the skin a
small pointed instrument provided with a
tube containing morphia they little thought
that they were paving the way for a, new
vice. Yet so it was. There are, in our
merry England, beings who are wholly un-
der the domination of morphia as ever was
Chinese under that of opium. Women have
yielded by degrees to its fatal fascination,
until at last they prick the skin a dozen times
adsy with the tiny syringe that has such
terrible results. The operation is almost
painless; the immediate effects pleasant. A
delicious lsnguor supervenes. Happy
thoughts and bright imagings fill the mind;
Some see beautiful visions, others feel only
a pervading sensation of comfort and well
being. On a few the effect of morphia is to
excite to some intellectual efiort,if effort that
can be called which is pure delight, s glori-
ous feeling of untrsmmelled power of un-
crippled exercise of the highest faculties. It
is as though the mind hsd suddenly develop-
ed wings. But at the very gheight of the en-
chantment the influence of morphis begins to
subside. The glory fades. The wings trail,
and the feet that are their sorry substitute
become weighted as with lead. As with the
workers, so with the dreamers. The visions
are‘obscured. The sensation of comfort, ir-
ritation, even pain. The mental vision that

The Medical Profession.
The doctor, as things now are lives by
the existence of disease. If we were sll, and
always, in good health, his occupation would
be gone. But every good doctor-1'. 0., ev-
ery doctor, except. possibly. a few unspeaka-
ble wretches—figbt disease to the very ut-
most of his power. He gives no quarter
wherever he sees it. His one work in life is
to destroy that by‘ which. under our arrange-
ments, he gets his bread. He'hss no faith
in disease. He believes in health, and that
only; and if any physician were known to
sow diseasc‘brosdcsst for the sake of gain,
the rest. instead of thanking him for‘msking
them work, would kick him out of society—
yes, out of the universe, if they could, and
it were lawful. And when a time of espec-
ial danger comes. when the great pestilence
sweeps through the cities, the doctor’s ethics
require that enery physician shall take his
life in his hand. and shall be at his post,
waiting for every call of distress that may
come to him. That is, 9 Ruskin says.
“The point of honor" to the profession-lilo
t ...: which the doctor must die rather
than yield. And that is why the medical
profession' 1s a liberal profession, because it
has a standard of duty and of honor which
is not that of selfish gain and pecuniary. ad-
vantage. When that great Scottish physician
Sir James Y. Simpson, was borne to his last
resting place, what constituted his crown of
glory ? Was it that m. counted up the
sovereigns and nobles who had called him to
their bedsides, and had poured wealth into
his hands in payment for skill that might
give them back life and health ? Or was it
that Edinburgh emptied her wards and :al-
leys of her poor to weep over the bier of the
man whose car had been open to every cry
of their misery—Ru. Professor 3.]. Thomp-

But enough about the post oflcs and post
ofiicepeopls for the present. I heard s fairly
good story about Judge stis.the other day,
that will bear telling among his constituents
in Illinois. I have it from a gentleman who
saw part of ligand I may say that I have
seen the rest. The old judge was gifting in
his comfortable arm chair in the snug rooms
he occupies at the Nations] Hotel, one of
those sloppy, slushy days esrlyQin the week,
when a young. rugged, and, if truth must be
told, rather soiled specimen of embryo Irish
American citizenship knocked, and than
‘ came in to sell the evening paper. The boy
was not only rsggedly but thinly clad, and it
was too easy to see that he had on neither
shirt nor stockings, while his feet were
thrust in a pair of old summer gutters, twice
or three times too large for him. His hair
was unkempt and ”nose was all too evi-
dently in need of attqition. “ mm Star
—secundition," sang out the urchin, as be
cast a business look at the judge and then a
longing one at the bright fire in the grate.
f‘Y-e-s," mid the judge. slowly and good-
naturedly, as he thrust his hand deep “into
his pocket after the necessary pickle. " I
don’t care for your psier. but I’ll buy it this
clone, anyway." The boy gave a long sand,
to improve the respectability of his upper
lip as much as possible, while he held out
paper. “Got a cold, eh?” said the judge,
still fumbling for the pickle, and evidently
in no hurry to get it. “ Yeser," said the
boy cheerijy, with another snifi. “ Feet
wet, eh?" said the judge, looking at the
bundles of decayed leather in which the ur-
chin was standing. “ Yeser, some,” ssid'he
turning up one shoe on its side and looking
with some dissatisfaction at the long rent
which had established unfriendly rflatious
between sole and upper long ago. and al-
lowed the snow and slash to enter with per-
fect freedom. “ No wonder you've got a
cold. eh i" mused the judge. “ Why, you've
got summer pants ou—what's left of 'em.
Got any father or mother, ch 1" The boy
drew his ragged cost fieeve scro- ths bass
of his nose, by way of clearing the decks for
business, and then in reply to the judge's.d
questions, which were fired at him about as
fast as he could answer them, explained that
he had neither father'nor mother; that he
lived with an aunt wholwas married, and her
husband worked every day; be had plenty
to eat, he thought, and his aunt dressed him
as well as she could, be guessed,” she wasn’t
any too well off in tin world He earned
from twenty to thirty ts a day, which be
contributed to the f ily fund, and was
boarded and clothed,” far as he was clothed
at all, in return, and he didn't seem to think
he was badly off in life. By the time be had
got through with the examination the judge
had fished out the long-sought pickle and
bought a paper. Then taming to his servant
he directed him to take the youth out and
buy him s suit of clothes complete, including
shoes, stockings, and a change of shirts and
underwear, and at handkerchief, give him a
bath, dress him up. and send him home;
“ and have the bill brought to me,” said the
judge. The order was obeyed and in the
course of an hour they came back, and you
wouldn't have known him. The outfit includ-
ed's necktie of very gay pattern, and appar-
ently selected after consultation with some
gentleman of color, and the renovated youth
evidently thought it the best part of "the suit.
" m1 better, now, ch 1" inquired roofing...
the inevitable “eh " being never forgotten.
The surprised boy sdmittd that he did, and
went away happy. If the judge menu run
for president. that boy will carry his ward or
there will be many sore heads and broken
noses in it.
Diseases of Domestic Animals.
The report of the commissioners on disease
es of domestic animals to the state board of
agriculture contains some valuable hints to
horsemen and farmers. The commimioners
have been calledto investigate a number of
cases of supposed contagious pleura-pneu-
monia. A close watch maintained in the
section of the state where the disease has
heretofore existed :has failed to detect any
cases. The only danger now is from fresh
importation of the disease from infected
districts. The hog cholera has been confined
to a few pens and has not spread in any lo.
cality so as to be considered epidemic. The
disease was probably introduced from abroad
Most other cases of possibly contagious dis.
ease warrant the opinion that thsyresultedfrom
local causes; The commissioners have con-
tinued to examine, with the aid of competent
veterinarians, all suspected cases of glanders
coming under their attention. Withono ex-
ception, the owners, on receiving notification
that their horses were glandered, have
promptly caused them to be kfled according
to law.

The usually quiet town of Montvtllo was
the scene of much excitement lately.
Anxiety was depicted upon the face of the
inhabitants as they walked to and fro and en-
tered into earnest conversation with each oth-
er. It appears that Miss Addie Staplins, s
bright little miss, left her. home Ssturdsy,for
the avowed purpose of visiting her Aunt
Spencer, who lives half a mile away, when
in reality she made the visit more especially
to her dashing young cousin, Frederic Spen-
oer. Early yesterday morning the young
couple were observed to be very much inter-
ested in each other. Mrs. Spencer at one
time peeped over her spectacles and saw,
Freddie kiss Addie sud Addie kiss Freddie.
Each would give a kiss, than take it back
again and the kind hearted lady seeing that
her son and niece were enjoying themselves.
she excused herself and went out to feed the
hens. Finally the yonnn- r0095" "03010 into
the yud and Freddie informed his mother
mt he would accompany his cousin to her
home, and Addie bade her auntie adieu and
thg young couple departed. When about
half way to the Staplins house the ioveable
pair esp" a neighbor's‘ horse and buggy
hitched b ‘the roadside, and Freddie suc-
ceeded in enticing Addie to enter the buggy
He then unbitched the horse, sat beside his
cousin and drove rapidly past her home, di-
rectly to Norwich. When it was discovered
that the pic had not returned to the
Staplius‘ house all Montvllle was aroused and
a vigilant search was made for them. After
several hours’ search in Montvills sud Nor-
wich the runaway couple were captured in
the latter place and returned to their parents.
Freddie Spencer is ten years of age and Ad-
die Staplins is only four years of sge.-5New
