J4Coll HELM’* FAMILY. When we were littlle boys nu«l girls. And played ■round our parent's door: Wo numbered then just even nine. In those days so long gone o'er. Five slsters>nd four brothers were we, Ina merry, pleasant house, Happy in childhoods youthful ways. In pleasure, play and fnu. *• Yes, in those happy youthful days. How thoughtless was our minds. We thought then just but of the day. And notof then, future times. Five sisters and four brothers were we. Still when wo were full grown, And we hae naught yet to eoiuplallU 1 And hope, it seemed our own. We did not think then of the time. How soon we were to part. Never to see each other's form. While life was In our hearts. For we were scattered far and wide. Some a thousand miles away: Such was our unhappy lot. An wo are scattered to-day. • , One to the army, a soldier went, , And for full four years or more. ( He served his country faithfully. Till the struggle is was o'er- | ‘ No truer, braver man than he ’ Ever tnaryhed to the South. And on many a bloody battlefield. Ho showed what he was worth. 1 He gave his health as sacrifice. For this noble I nion grand. And ever lived a wasting life. ( For he was never well again. He sleeps beneath the Kansas soil. So peaceful ami alone. ] With none but strangers all around. ' j So far away from home. Atnother in Indiana rests, ■ t Close by her mother's side. t " She was just in her prime cut down < With death’s rapac ions stride. ] Another. Who for’eighteen'years < Endured sufferings almost unknown. i Sleeps in a peaceful quiet grave. 1 With all pain and sorrow gone. 1 Another, brother but recently. We saw his pleasant face. But he was forced to leave our side. And submit to death's embrace. A soldier also, he went to war. ( The Union to sustain. And untill peace it was declared. . In the Arid he did remain, He sleeps close to his native home. . -And beneath his native soil, ; So free from this worldly care. i And from trouble, sin and toil. < Two yet in Indiana lives. • < A sister and a brother, 1 And close by them rests our sister dear. 1 And our dear beloved mother. 1 Three of us yet in Pennsylvania lives, AH sisters close around. We live in sight of our own blue hille, Close to our youthful home. t Our father he is yet alive. a . And to his chidren he can go, And talk of old time memories. When he was young also. Oh, yes, those happy youthful days. ■ ■ How soon the tiew away. How rapid time goes rolling on. ( Nor stops a single day. , Some have gone we’ll never meet, ( Except there is a God above. To raise one’s body from t he (lead, i To live in life and love. < But if there is no futurelife, We’ll never meet no more, 1 We’ll never see each other’s face. For- eternity has no shore. Yes, we numbered nine, but now we’re five And soon we may be three. For our time is fast approching too. That we must meet eternity. • —Samuel Stine. March 6, 1893. Peterson Items. Grandma Steele lias been sick for some time but is now improving. Protracted meeting has been closed after a session of four weeks. There were three conversions. Half a dozen hypocrites can teag down a church faster than one hundred good members can build it up. Single individuals should never tvy to rule a community. Peterson doesnot seem to miud the hard times. By the looks of the amount of shipping that is being done from here. Ed Mo'ury, of DeGratf. Ohio, was the guest of H.F. Bowers last .Sunday. He speaks well of Hoosiertiom. Misses Artie and Maggie Weldy visited relatives in Decatur last Sunday. Seth Weldy has been blest with another son. Who said Peterson is not booming. The graded school at this place isa gram! , success. Enrollment about 100. The teachers are second to none of the common school teachers of this county. Singing Is in progress at Pleasant Dale. George Me the smiler, smiles and says, “The girl that left me behind her..'' Why cannot our school give an entertainment and buy a Hag and library? Let the' good work go on regardles of kickers. Preble'ltena* Oil excitement. The noble enterprise of out; country is booming towards the front. The Preble Oil Company means business. | They are all good business men and bust- j ling fellows. They are after the farmers. I -»■' and the farmers all seem to lie pleased to I see them come and explain the new enterprise now taken place in our part of the country. The farmers are all taking an active part in the oil and gas movement by readily leasing their lands to theirhomc ’company; it is very pleasing to all the people of this part of the county to see the work move onward. The company lias now nearly five thousand acres of land Jessed and are still after the farmers every day. The company called a meeting the other evening to locate their first well and. erect a derrick to start drilling as soon as possible. The work is becoming quite interesting to everyone in this part of the county. It is hop&kby all that our home organized company will meet with much success. We, as citizens, honor them in their enterprise, gnd let success -be with them is the good wishes of all in behalf of the Preble Oil Company. _j.- Blizzards, sudden thaws and extreme cold induce bad colds, that ate followed by severe coughs, la-grippe, etc. This can be prevented by using Fassett’s New Remedy for coughs.

Rc»pon«e to Welcome Address. Al She M.reilnu' oftho Fanners lasll* tnse Held nt Horne, January Slat, IIV 4>. It. MARTZ. Ladies anil Gentlemen il lt> responseio the undress of welcome, it gives me pleasure to announce 10 this audience the opening of tht 1 fourth annual Farmer's Institute, or School of Wisdom and Progress. lam thankful that the age has arrived when the hewers of wood and drawers of water and tillers of soil begin to think and realize that his intellectual powers can be made a treasure of great wealth to him and mankind In common, and that he greatly feels the need of that knowledge which this school is designed to bring to his command mid ”se. We have met face to face on terms as equality and brotherly love, neither above or below our calling: we are to-day taking an advance step in our life’s journey: as a rule we live beneath our privilege because we lack that knowledge that tolls us how toad and when to act: we are apt to learn too much in the sad and dear school of' experience. To make experience cheap we meet to give others the benefit of what we have learned, when the farmers here assembled tell of their success-in some things and their failures in other,. There will none go away without seeing where he can do somethings better than heretofore, and see bright visions of future success that will stimulate his soul with new love for his farm and home. The time has come when man must know his business thoroughly in order to make a success. in these meeting the most valuable experience of each becomes the common property of all. It would be unlikly fora body of intelligent men and women to come together and spend a day or two discussing the problems and asking-questions and exchanging ideas and not b<- greatly benefited. It is to be regreted that farmers who could derive much good from the meetings never attend: the farming world is thinking on this subject and how to produce the best results. And in order that they may get new ideas, they must meet together aud compare notes. A man who hasapicture in bismind oran Idea to work out he will persue with much more zeal and less drudgery than the man of muscle' aud no thought. We know how natural it is for one to extole their doings and is very proper for the farmer to do so. There are other ideas to present to you: while the farmers, their wives, sons aud daughters, compose the bulk of this meeting, and it is for this reason that I speak more to this class, our community and those that meet with us as a whole, are not only farmers but mechanics, tradesmen, professors and laborers, and many others, and where one body prospers all are prosperous. No one body of men can be prosperous at the expense of the other. And while we are so deeply interested in the success of the farmer, while we acknowledge the farming to be the source of wealth, we should not forget that there are other necessary branches in this community and almost every community in the country. There are no class of persons who better appreciate the prosperity of other branche of business than the farmer. In our associations and business capacities with men of other calling, let us meet them with a fraternal greeting, the same as we would, desire them to accord to us. in all of our deliberations during this meeting we Invoke the hearty’ eo-operation of you all;' and hope you will try to make the meeting both pleasant and profitable. We welcome you with us to-day: all should consider that this is your meeting, and for your especial benefit. Try’ and profit by what you hear. and say something to profit others, In behalf of the farmers of Adams county I again bid,you a hearty welcome. Linn drove <Sri«t. The ice harvest lias commenced. The acreage is small the crop light: several of our people are laying in a supply which we find to lie about five inches thick and of fine quality. John Rhine, of Camden, William Davis and Edward Smith, of Montpelier. Ind., under the firm name of Rhine, Davis & Co. have bought the Pioneer Mills machinery and will move them to Montpelier about the first of June. Thus our town will loose a commodity that she has enjoyed for thir-ty-seven years. * , It having been noticed lliat L. L. Dunbar had not been seen uptown for several days and that event followed by a rumor that he had suspended business caused the making of an investigation. It was soon learned (we are pleased to state) that tie suspension inbusiness but temporal owihgtotheadvent or a girl baby teat came to diffuse sunshine within the home. Mr. Dunbar, when discovered in the center of the room with the little one on his lap, singing: Gem of my soul How precious ypu lie. Yet ever so small A great future for thee.

Monroe Items, Primary olectiirti February 20th. Rather early, but the early bird catches the worm. Uncle Billy Baughmau, our present Recorder, presented himself to us last Ttlesda) as a candidate for re-election wanting two terms. Billy thinks he will catch the worm. ft Squire Houck, of Kirkland township, was at Monroe last Monday. He is a candidate for County Clerk, and he claims that <ne term of office is enough and submits himself to the people in that line. Frank Hartuett Is again out ou terra lirwa after a severe attack of influenza. The report that Joseph P. Johnson and others wen- drunk last week is false.

Johnson's. dock of sheep on his farm, crlppleing and maiming several. The black flag is hoisted on Joe's farm, and “no mercy to dogs" is written thereon. Pleasant Valley llema.
