a?" We are sending out a }
number of statements to sub- ! i
scrioers in arrears. There are
now on our books nearly 2,000
subscribers, many of whom
have paid nothing in a year or '
longer. We ask all these de- (
linquents to settle up as soon i <
as possible. Each account is 1
made out up to the nearest year
or half year. It may be that
6ome who get these statements J
have already paid; if so just call !
our attention to the fact and i
we will cheerfully make the ]
4 correction. All we want is
what is due us and not a cent
more. But we do want that.

The Old New England Sabbath.
A description of the i-id New linganil
Sabbath is calculated to make
es'tless children of the present day
ind possibly some of their ckii rs
hankful they were not horn two cc-nuries
ago. ,
The Sabbath began Saturday aftertoon
with the going down of the sua.
Snuday morning a born was loudly
down to announce the hour of worihip.
Service began at 0 o'clock and
asted for eight hours, with an inter- *
cission of one hour for dinner and
onvereatlon. In the earliest days the
ongregation sat on rude benches?, their
eats being assigned them at town
oeeting. The sendee consisted of sevral
parts, which are chrontcied in an
nclent diary aa follows:
"Preliminary prayer or invocation;
bnptor of Bible read and expounded: I
malm In meter, read oat line by line
iy Deacon S.; long prayer on various
natters, one hour and a half; sermon
f 100 to 2S0 pages; at close of sendee.

The sailor, a little prood of bis

miled easily. Then be went on:

Caught the Policemen.
All the countryside Is laughing at an
rperience of the police at Lough
eagh, Ireland. An lntercounty cock-1
ght was arranged between birds from c
ondonderry and Antrim and was held
a one of the islands In the lough,
he police got wind of It and arrived, 5
s they usually do, late. All the availale
boats bad been pressed Into use by
ie spectators, and the police, after
ying vainly to secure transportation
> the island, determined to swim for c
. Just as they arrived the bout ended, '
ad every boat put off for the malnind
again. The police had a swim
ack for their pains, and when they .
sached the mainland they found that \
leir clothing, over which they had neg- S
eted to ipave a ruard. had disanneor
!. They had a ten mile march In
ripping underclothes to the nearest
irraeks, where they were put to bed j
atll new uniforms could be procured.
