night. Let the older aB well as the young people come and mafie these meetings profitable.

There will be a supper in honor of the new converts which have come into the church during the revival, at the hall next Friday night.

Mrs Hay worth's three cousins, who have been spending a few days here, reudered a very interesting programme at the church Tuesday evening, which was highly enjoyed by all.

The revival closed Sunday evening after having been in progress five weeks, yet to those interested it seems but a few daa There were fortythree accessiors, Surely Providence has been in this place, and not only revived the new hearts, but the olrer members. It has brought hapDiness to the hearts that were once full of sadness and has taken heavy burdens off of the laden ones, and may we all, though the meetings have closed, continue to have a revival in our hearts. We all express our heart felt thanks to our dear minister who has labored so faithfully among us.

Yountsville is soon to have a physician, by Aoril 1st, unless the present arrangments fall through with. Dr. Collings.of Louisville,Ky.,will be witn us. He is the son of an eminent minister, the Rev. Dr W. B. Collins, of Louisville. Ky. He is a graduate of DePauw University and of the Indiana Medical College, and is now in Berlin, Germany, taking post graduate work. He has had a year's experience in the dispensary at Indianapolis. The young man comes with the highest recommendations of character and equipment for his profession. We shall congratulate ourselves in the hopeful prospect of getting a man of such attainments and promise among us.

Last Monday evening being Mrs. John Myers' birthday anniversary her many friends planned her a surprise. After she had sat down from her daily toil the doorsuddenly opened and her friends, about thirty in number, made their appearance, and much to her surprise a fine supper was spread, oysters being the main element.
