It is also trno that tho farmer who produces whit ho consumes has nut few demands on his bank ac count, and, as a natural conso qr.uhoo, has tho ready cash for moBt demands.-Charlotte Chroni cle. A Question ol' Legs. [Now York Graphic] From Col. Hay, thc privato secre tary and biographer of Lincoln, to the martyr President himself is n natural transition. This story is ho ing told of Lincoln. Stephen A. Douglas, short mid stout, and Owen Lovrjoy, of medium size, wcro once gossiping together in Lincoln's pres ence upon thu propor length of a man's legs. "Now," said Lovejoy, f'Abo's logs are altogether too long, and yours, Douglas, I think aro a lit tle short. Let's ask Abo what he thinks about it." Tho convolution had heen carried on with a viow to Lincoln's overhearing it, and they closed it by saying : "Abe, what do you think aboutit?" Mr. Lincoln had a fur away look, as ho sat with one leg twisted around tho other, hut he responded to tho question . "Think of what? "Well, wo'ro talking ahout tho propor length of a man's legs. AVo think yours aro too long and Douglas' too short and we'd like to know what von think is tho proper length?" "\Voil," said Mr. Liueoln, "that's a mattor that l'vo never given any thought to, so of course I may ho mistaken; hut my first iinprossion is that a man's legs ought to he long enough to reach from his body to tho ground." DOTS FROM DONOHO. Mu. EDITOR: As we. have never "seen any thing (rom tins community in your, paper, wc hope you will spare us space enoujrh for ? few liner, in your lengthy columns, but if wc fail io supply the task we have taken wc hope you will not "view us with a critics eye, but nass our imper fections ny," as our literary style is yet in its inlancy, Wc are havinc plenty of rain and crops arc growing rapidly Thc tanners of this section nrc feeling cjuite buoyant over fine crops and, it thc good seasons con tinue there is no reason why they may not expect the most abundant harvest. It has so far been a favorable year for larmers. and. not only larmiers, but our i entire country, and we should feel very gracious when wc read of Pennsylva nia's awful fiood and, the befalling cn* ?amities of other countries and, know that ours still exist, sale and unharmed. We have a llousishlnr/ Sunday school at beulah, under the efficient manage ment ol Mr. Fi P. Stanton, as supetin tendant, hacked by a corps ot hard working officers and teachers, all of whome undoubtedly put lorth every effort in his or her power lor the ad vancement ol the school. Thc average attendance up to the present time has been remarkable good. The seat that has been so promptly filled in the bible class by one of our young men, wc notice tor thc last few Sunday's has been vacant, for no other reason can we imagine than that the blissful thought ol matrimony reigns so supremely that he is completely ovcr I come, and, unable to resume the respon sibilities that rests upon him. As wc sat upon .thc new cn ure h steps omi S?n I day night not long ago, while thc silver ! moon shown dimly out from behind the swift passing clouds I heard my young Iricnd returning home from the cottage j beyond thc vally1 bc was singing in thc most heart melting tones that ever i retched thc car of thc writet the well ! known song, "I will remember you love in my prayers." As he neared thc church the singing ceased, and vye could hear a low m Ur mer not distinct enough to understand, Thus he passed us unnoticed. Wc sincerely hope that his anxious heart will soon be set at ease and, he will again resume his po* sidon in thc Sunday school. DITTO. July 16, 18KQ. Tribute ot' Respect. At thc regular session of thc bethany Sunday School held June 20, 1889. Thc following resolutions were ottered : Whereas il has pleased our Heavenly Father in His all wisc providence to re move hom our midst our beloved sister Ida Patrick, Pe it resolved, that while we recognize the hand of God in our sad bereavement we mourn the loss ot one who by her Godly walk gave us an ex ample worthy of imitation humbly sub mitting to our Father's will.
