Sergent conducted tlio ceromonios and did it in a handsome manner. The pelting match waa a glowing success. Misses Maud Koplor and Tillie Sweeten chefse sides and Jim Fordyce acted as spelling master., The words that wore given out puzzled some, others spoiled them correctly, but in'the windup W. W." Constancer came out ahead. Charley Lister, Misses Ellis, Mabel Alexander, Susie Lister, Maud McDonald, Tillie Sweeten, Alice Wright and Fred Alex, ander each gave a recitation and were enthusiastically applauded. A great deal of amusement was had and everybody enjoyed themselves. At the hour of 12 all in the hall stood and sang "Jesus Lover of My Soul," after which the lodge prayer was offered by Mrs.

A Great Year For Eeal Estate. The past year has been a great one in the real estate market of the country The first few months were dull and then came a rush. While the instruments are not greatly in excess of previous, years they are of a more healthy character, there being more transfers and fewer mortgages. The mortgage debt paid off is unparalled and all in all the market was twice as large as that of last veor.
A Remarkable Hetnedy.
A man iu a neighboring town having heard that ague could be cured bt crawling head first down stairs when the chill is coming on, tried it Friday. Ho felt the dreaded approach of tlie shake, and dropping on his hands and knees started down the front stairs. .Just as he Btarted two old ladies came up on the stoop to consult with his wife in regard to Bhipping 700 neckties to the poor of New York, and it 60 happened that the mo-
meat they opened the door he lost his balance and came downTipon them like an avalanche with spokes in it, and before they could even think of saving themselves the enemy was among them and the next instant a horrible mixture of humanity and cloth went revolving across the sidewalk and into the street, to the unmixed astonishment of the neighbors and to the unconcealed disgust of the participants. But it cured him.
Thoughts of an Umbrellu.
We never can tell exactly where we lose our umbrellas. It is singular how gently an umbrella unclasps itself from the tendrils of our mind and floats out into the filmy distanco of nothingness.
