Not having seen anything in your highly esteemed paper from this neighborhood for awhile 1 will give you a few items: The health of the community is excellent. Reuben Yeoman is buildeng a tine new barn on his (arm. Pres Roberts is putting up hay for Ran" dolph Wright on shares. The farmers are in the midst of hay harvest, which is good, and will soon be harvesting oats which are the best for many seasons. In tact the prospect for an abundant crop of all kinds is very flattering. J. A. Wright and wife of Chicago, are also here on a visit to their cousins Randolph and Jasper Wright. J. A. Wright was born here but went with his parents to Missouri when a small boy 47 years ago, and this is his second visit since, the first being about two and a half years ago. Leander Wright of Colorado, arrived a few days ago on a visit to his brothers, Jasper and Randolph Wright, aud other relatives and old friends. He was born and raised here but left 39 years ago and had not been back until now, consequently had not seen his brother, in that time except he saw Jasper once about 28 or 30 years ago. They did not recognize each other when they met. He was almost or quite totally blind for several years but owing to a successful operation he can now see to get around very well. He made the trip alone. He will probably be here several weeks and will visit as many of his old friends as possible. Owing to the length of time, there has been a great change in the people and the general appearance of the country and he may find but a few of the old people that were here when he left. ,

Dr. Zeuch dressed the wound. While playfully examining the interior workings of a dynamite shell last Wednesday, the cartridge exploded and frightfully mangled the right hand of Joseph Stump. He was hurriedly taken to Wheatfield where by the careful attendance of Dr. Schweir the wound is now doing nicely. Joe bets that he is the first fellow who ever blasted stumps and held ihe explosive in his fingers. See the point? Beautify your complexion with little cost.
