The Higilou Je'itiiiilj lieunion. On last Friday, Aug. 9th, at the beautiful home of Isaac Sexton, of Shell county, the Rigdon's lield their annual reunion. Among those present weie James Buckingham and wife, of Morristown Pryor Rigoon aud family, of neai Fountain town: Charles Rigdon aud family and Thai Rigdon, of Palestine W. W. Rigdon and family, of Greenfield, and Mrs llhoda A. Rigdon, mother ot hil. -U the hour of noon they all repaired to the dining room, where a bounteous feast was served, cider and lemonade, all they could drink. In the evening refreshments were served, consisting of ice cream, cake, bananas, candies, etc. It being W. W. Rigdon forty-third Diithdav, it is useless to say he had his share of enjoyments of the day by getting his face blacked and ice down his back. At 6 o'clock they all departed to their respective homes, setting apart for their next reunion to be held at the home of .lames Buckingham, Aug. 31,1896. May tiey all live to enjoy their next reunion as they did this one, is the wish of the waiter.

A Couple ol Buoaways.

Tuesday, George Hawk and h's son-in-law, Wm. Toney, with their wives, started for a pleasure ride, when the team became frightened on Mechanic street and ran away. In turning west on Main street the right hand wheel gave way tinder the strain of the turn and by the axle dropping, Mrs. Hawk was thrown out just in front of L. C. Thayers, and bruised up some but not seriously hurt. T.he others got out as the team was checked up. It was a close call for all of them aud they were fortunate to escape easily. The team and carrige belonged to S. P. Gordon, for whom the men work.

A horse belonging to Horace "Wickr.rd ran off today. It was hitched in front of W. S. Gant's grocery, when the water from the hydrant in front of Mr. Morrison's ran down upon its heels, frightlied it:, and caused it to break loose. It ran on Main street to State street and turned south, overturning the buggy and demolishing the top, the dash and breakins the harness, but the horse was canirht without further damage. F. G. Banker's team was coming up State street with a load of brick aud it becoming rriglitened, one of the hosses jumped over the tongue and broke it.

NOT since "The Anglomaniacs" has there been so clever a society satire as Henry Fuller's "Pilgrim Sons," which is published in the August CosMoi'OLiran. The problems involved in women's use of the bicycle are so startling and so numerous, under the rapid evolution of this art, that one welcomes a careful discussion of the subject by so trained amind and so clever a writer as Mrs. Reginald de Kove:i. TheCosMOPOLiTAN illustrates Mr.'-. de Koven's article with a series of poses by pv-'fessional models. A new sport, mo mlhng than any known to Nimrod re tngerous than was ever exponent ed oy even Buffalo Bill, is exploited in1 he same issue iu an article on "Photog1 aph ng Bi^ GumJ- the Rocky Mounti ins before shoeing. The idea that ti nc Kits for THE O-MOPOUTAX menus inferiority from a literary point of view is dispelled by the appearance in this number ot -such writers as Sir Lewis Morris, r-ir Iviwin Anioid, Edgar Fawcetf, Tabb, W. (Jlars Russell, Agnes Repplier, etc Nor can we entertain the iei of inferiority in illus.nuio.i with such names as Hamilton Gibson, Denman, Van Schaick, Lix, Saudham, etc., figuring as thecniet artists of a sin

Entered at Postotiice as seeond-claas matter.

MANY people think the government manages its own finances, but they are woefully mistaken, at least since Cleveland went in. The Chicago Inter Ocean had a fine cartoon illustrating that recently. It showed banker J. Pierpout Morgan on the U. S. government financial wagon with a firm grip on the lines, aud driving. Uncle Sam had hold of the ends of the lines, and like many a little boy, was fooled with the idea that he was driving, but the banker had sole charge, as he and the bond syndicate have the government by the throat. Cleveland was sitting on the rear seat to act as lackey boy for his master, Banker Morgan. It is a shame that the Cleveland administration is incapable of managing the financial affairs of the government and had to give a foreign bond synu.cale $11,000,000 to manage things for them. The system netds changing in some way.

A HOMEMADE HAMMOCK.

Any One Can Kak« It and Have Something That Will B« a Delight. It may be easily constructed out of an ordinary barrel and a good length of hemp rope sufficiently stout to bear the weight of a grown person.

One should be careful to select a clean, nicely made barrel for the purpose.

If there is no empty one to be found in the storeroom or cellar of your home, it may be purchased at any grocery store for 25 cents or less. Remove the top and bottom of the barrel, and three inches from the edge, both top and bottom, bore holes by means of a gimlet between the staves all around.

Thus you have a row of holes at each end of the barrel, through which may be laced the rope, inside and out, and fastened firmly at a chosen stave on

either side. You will be surprised to find how nicely the ropes will adjust themselves in the half circle or grooves afforded by the gimlet liolas.

Knock off the barrel hoops, and your hammock will fall at your feet, the staves opening out smoothly, held securely by the ropes. 14opes attached at the four corners will swing the hammock from stout brass hooks fastened on the tree trunks on the lawn, or between a piazza post and the house, upon the latter.

There is a deal of luxury in this simple, homely device. The swell of the stave toward the center will be found to exactly fit the back when in a reclining position, and, moreover, this hammock will not double up and incase one in uncertainty of getting in and out, as the net ones are so prone to do.

For the lawn the hammock need only receive a coat of English enamel paint in some bright, cheery color and be fitted with a Japanese rusli pillow, or circular net, which can be purchased for 10 cents, but for the piazza we have seen one elaborately decorated.

It was painted a vivid yellow, and the ropes had been stretched over in crimson wool, finished in bunches of pompons that hung from the brass liooks that suspended the hammock.

A very thin pad, or mattress, made of hair and covered with a Bagdad rug, which hung over the sides of the hammock as an oriental valance, added to its luxury besides this there was a nest of down cushions gay in bandanna covers piled at one end.—Exchange.

Graceful Walking.

It appears that Newport society girls have formulated a rule for graceful walking, which pedestrians will please copy if they wish to get on in this world. An intelligent writer thus de scribes this step: "One of the cardinal points," she says, "is that the advancing

foor,

should be placed a long way

ahead of tho other, so as to niako a very long step, almost a stride, and to keep this stride graceful the foot that is left behind lifts itself to the toe and takes a right angle swing. The toe must always be set down first, or the body will sink too heavily at each, like the step of a fat woman. The pointed toed shoe is preferred if long enough, as it cuts the air and lends elasticity to tho foot." There! This is uncommon sense, but the Newport pedestrian always walks just that way. Therefore let every girl who can forsake her wheel long enough to walk at all try it. Hhe will l'eel sho is in the swim right off, for Miss Amy Bond and Miss Julia Grant, besides half a dozen other fair ones now doing this swan step act, are. declared to be "beautiful walkers."—Boston Herald.

Trimmings For Summer liodioes.

.- Law, ribbon and bead decorations are all noted on tho bodices, while empire capcs, epaulets, Vandyke arrangements and various other designs are shown for their adornment, writes Isabel A. Mallon in Tho Ladies' Home Journal. As bead trimmings are quite expensive, it is well to know that thero may be gotten, in the large shops, strings of beads and spangles to be applied to ribbon or piece material, so that the economical woman may form a fashionable garniture without spending much money. Satin ribbon is more generally seen than either velvet or grosgrain, and the reasons for its popularity are not only that it ties easier, but that it contrasts more effectively with the fabric proper. Stripes and plaids in silk are fancied for plain bodices, while if a plain color is used it is given an elaborate air by its trimming. Cotton blouses frequently have a double ruffle down the front for their only trimming, as it is conceded to be in best taste to develop them simply-

.'.V.-VV.-,-.-

Up in the top story of The building, where the typeseting and other machines do everthing but talk, says Boston Globe, there is a pleasant-faced, clear skinned light complexioned man of 52, who has been with The Globe ever since the birthday of that great paper. He is the night foreman of the composing room, and looks fully 15 years younger than he realy is. Hie name is Mr. Charles Rolfe.

Nervous headaches that well might drove him to distraction first introduced him to Palnes celery compound. That was five years ago. and until that time he was one of the most pronounced opponents of prepared remedies to be found in the city.

Just how Paine's celery compound was first brought to his attention he does not remember, but it has done him so much good that the compound has no more enthusiastic champion living. He is as happy as any oue in the enjoyment of good health could be, and for tbat happiness he gives full credit to Paine's celery compound. Read what he had to

about the medicines: "I am always ready to reccommend Paiae's celery compound when I hear of a case similar to my own Some five years ago I was suffering from headaches which were sometimes so severe during working hours of the night that I would clasp my hands over my head to 'hold the top on,' the paiu being excruciating. These attack* would occur sometimes as often as three times a week. Sleep WMS out of th1 question, the pillow seeming but a block of wood "Just at f!ie

house for use whenever I felt a return of the old pai^.s. The other members of my family also began to take it—my wife for a feeling of general weakness, she being at that time much'run down' and never feeling well enough to perform the work of the home. Within a week she was. as she expressed it, 'as well as ever in her life,' and similar reports came from all our friends to whom we bad recommended it. "I feel confident that in nervou3 headaches and a run down, system the compound will be benefical every time, if not a perfect cure. "In some instances we hnve not only recommended it, but furnished it to very aged friends, and the effect of one bottle has seemed marvelous, and particular old friends of mine telling me that before one bottle bad been used he 'felt at least ten years younger, and certaiuly had not felt as good for 10 years.

Daring the last five years I have used a great many bottles of the compound —that is, iu my home. I am positive that it is a sure cure, for nervous headaches and a brokendovvn f( eliug especially in the case of elderly persons "There is one case in particular I call to miud, in wh.ch Paine's celery compound asserted its good qualities. We had a young married lady friend, who was musing her 4 month old child, and found that, she could not perform ter household duties on accouut ot the weak conditions she seetned always to be in. On the recommendation of my wife and myself she took one bottle of the compound, and before two we.-ks hid passed win able to do her own washing even, in addition to horsework. About three bottles iv ere used. I have yet to hear from any friend to when I recommended it other than tho most, favorable results.
