Stoek Law Meeting., . -A meeting of a number of the citizens of Perry township was held at the Town Hall on Saturday, the 19th inst., to consider the question whether stock should be allowed to run at large in said township. On motion E. Reeve was elected chairman and I. E. Knisely secretary of the meeting.

A Hen Becomes a Rooster. Six years ago next July, says the Oglethrope (Ga.) Zcho, there was hatched in this section a female chick. “With the exception of the usual adventures with hawks and owls, this interesting fowl reached the age of pullethood without creating any particular excitement. She quickly won the hearts of the lords of the barnyard, and more than one pitched battle was fought for ber favor by the rival cocks. In time she developed into a sturdy, matronly hen, and hot only proved a good source for eggs, but set upon and hatched five litters of chickens and one of geese, from which feat she was known in‘the neighborhood as the “gosling hen.” T.ast February, however, a marked change was observable in the subject of this sketch. Tirst, the roosters ceased to worship at hershrine. A change was also “observable in her general bearing—she assumed decidedly masculing airs, crowing with a veice and tone of a thoroughbred chanticleer; gpurs comgmenced to grow from her heels; the tail lengthened and cyrved ; her comb grew in length, and now this remarkable fowl has developed into a full fledged rooster, It is now on exhibition at Barrows,

) - Straub’s Normal Music School. | The Classical concert given,at Union Hall Tuesday eve. was the 3osing exercise of P’rof. Straub’s Musical Normal School, which has been in session at this place during the past four Weeks. [On last Saturday evening the school gaye a popular concert at the Union Hall which wag largely attended. The music was of a general character, and the rendering of it by the Normal class was commendable and praiseworthy. "The selections of music for the concert exercises on A uestay were.of a higher - order n those of the previous evening. The Hall was filled by the elite of the town and vicinity, and when we say that their expectations were fully | realized we can scarcely speak more complimentary of the excellent management, and thorough rendering of the { most difficult selections of music. Prof. | Straub’s assistants in this school of music were, Mr. Werschkul, vocalist; Mz. Reed, elementary instructor; Prof. Morse, of Boston, pianist.—The instruction given from day to day, in voiee culture, harmony and instrumental music has been of a l’l\lost thorough character, and the good work accomplished is fully evidenced by the rapid advancement made by those who were so fortunate as to attend Prof. Straub’s school. Those of our citizens who are fully able- to judge of good musical work speak in the highest praise of Prof. Straub and his able corps of instructors. If space would permit we should likeé to speak more of the part taken in the concerts by our home talent, but suflice it to say that Ligonier can turn out more good singers and pianists than any town of its size in Indiana. T’upils that have been constant attendants at this normal regret its close, but not more so than do our citizens and the patrons of the school in general. Weunderstand that steps are being taken to have Prof. Straub and his able assistants make this town another visit at no distant day. The second session of the narmal for this season commences at Plymouth, Ohio, next Menday,--which session will be attended by several from this place and vicinity. May success be the reward of all, is our most sincere wish. :

i Tt Doesn’t Pay to Quarrel. : A writer of a decidedly philosophical turn of mind argues with a good deal of force that it does not under any Circumstances pay to quarrel. In the heat of anger words are spoken which had far better be left unsaid, but, which once spoken, cannot be recalled or forgoiten. A quarrel degrades a man in his own eyes, disgraces him in the eyes of others, and, what is worse, blunts his sensibilities on the one hand, and increases the passionute irritability of the other. . The truth is, the more peacefully and gquietly we get on the better for our neighbors and ourselves. In nine cases out of ter the better course is if a man cheats you cease to deal with him; if he is abusive quit his company; and if he slanders you, take care to live so that nobody will believe him. No matter who he is, or hoew he abuses you, the wisest way is to let him alone, for there is nothing better than this cool, calm and quiet way of dealing with the wrongs we meet with. liesunchased will die; fires unfanned will burn out and quarrels neglected beecome as dull as the crater of an extinet volcano. i

Tue Chicago. News calls attention. to the fact that notwithstanding the hiard times at th§ South,which are altogether owing t 6 the low values of prope rfy other than money, it last year raiised 30,000,000, more pounds of cotton th.an it did in the previously unequaled y sar of 1860; it also retained and manufactured 200,000,000 more pounds than. it did in that year. Indeed it is stated that cotton can be manufactured at the present time at the South muwch ‘more cheaply than in New England. A ;‘]argé‘\cotton factory, capable of e:mploying several hundred persons, has just been erected at Atlanta, Ga., in which State are also to be found sevreral other fine, factories for the same purpose. In fact were it not for the low values of property the South was never so prosperous. No wonder its people are clamerous for free silver coinage and more greenbacks. :

Going to Meet Her Brother. . (Evansville Journal.) ‘ A sad and touching incident of the scarlet fever epidemic occurred on Thursday. A little sister and brother lay sick, and on Wednesday night the little boy died. The next morning the little sister was informed of it, and at her request was carried into the adjoining chamber to look for the last time at her.brother.: ' “Has he gone up to Heaven ?” she asked. : ) ‘t‘)Yes,”v answered the mother, with a sob. & “Well, then,” remarked the little-suf-ferer with a deep sigh, “I guess I will g 0 to see him' to-night.” . 3 ~ She pratted on for a few minutes longer, and suddenly cried, “No, I guess 1 won’t wait till to-night, I feel like I was going now.” She laid her head against her mother’s shoulder, told her good bye, and died in her arms. ,

Mr. Braden is a Noble county “boy,” having enlistéed in the- army from this county. e located in Kansas about 10 years ago. - : Messrs. - John Thumma and Wm. Shambaugh, two of the cleverest men in and about Wolf Lake, gave our latch-stting a pull last week and deposited each $2 in the Banner Bank. They make a most gratifying report of the splendid wheat crop in Nobletownship and say that the new wheat so far brought to the mill is of an excellent quality. ' ! " Qur old friend and subsecriber, Wm. Abern, of Merriam, dropped into our sanctum last Thursday and left the necessary spondulix to secure the continued visits of his favorite pgper at his fireside, Uncle. Abern sayg§ farmers out his way rejoice over the best wheat crop ever harvested therp. Ile says if the tillers of the sgil dgn’t get into good financial shape now, he is at a loss to know wh they ever will. While conversing on this subject, he made the statement that he harvested 100 acres of wheat with the sameé set of hands, without a single change—all hands sticking to it until the job was completed. !

b ' Sy Bread is the Staff of Life.” Bread is good whenrlight, sweet and nutritious, and without deleterious, qualities. - ¢ , These good properties are not secured by the use of yeast or ferment, because it is often difficult, and sometimes impossible to procure good yeast; because the carbonic acid gas, requisite to give porosity to the loaf, is obtained at the expense of the nutritive qualities of the flour; because lactic, acetic, and butyric acids are often formed; and because bad bread, made in this ‘way, is a fruitful source of dyspepsia ‘and indigestion, - Not by the use of cream of tartar ‘and soda, because the former is not a ;nutritiv& principle, and often irritates the alimentary organs; and because it is so generally adulterated with sulphate of lime and other deletericus ‘substances, that it is no longer safe to ! use it as ordinarily obtained. " HOW, THEN, SHALL WE MAKE &OOD BREAD? Professor Horgford has given to the: world a scientific solution of his great problem in scientific economy; and ‘the Self-Raising Bread ‘Preparation, manufactured under his patent and directions, has met the ungualified approval of every physician, chemist and ' physiologist who has examined and tried it. It is a simple phosphate, and. nearly restores to the flour the essential and nutritive properties removed with the bran—-nothing else. :

The Credit System. The credit system sometimes brings results least anticipated by those “who trade,. in it. A Scotch farmer was dunned by a wagon-maker of the ambitious village of Drayton, Ontario, to pay for a vehicle purchased from him; to which the canny Scot pleaded inability in consequence of scarcity of money. Being pressed for the debt by his creditors, who said that he had a note becoming due in a few days, which the amount of the farmer’s debt would enable him to meet, he was told very naively by the farmer that sooner than see him stuck he would lend him the amount from a fund which he had lying by tor note-shaving, provided he ‘would get some substantial neighboers to back his note,and would only charge him 12 per cent. for it. He no doubt thought it was a poor system that ¢could ‘not work both ways, :

All I have to say, it regard to the matter is this, that whoever started the report told an unmitigated, uncalled-for, and cowardly lie. I do {not deem it necessary to explain how \L voted; but for the satisfaction of \those who ‘want to know more about imy business thar they do to their own, ‘I will say that I voted the National ticket with the exception of four can\didates.

: melling Wheat Early. ‘ s [LaPorte"l;lerh,ldf] A The Herald has been urgently in favor of early selling of the wheat crop, and taking one year with another ‘it has found that its advice in this re‘spect has been safe and - judicious. Last year the market started at about 93 cents. The crop was light in the county. DBefore October the price ,touched as low.as 75 cents. The wheat sold was in small parcels by those who ‘were compelled to raise money. We have heard many farmers say that they will hurry their wheat to markef if they can get one dollar a bushel. And we have been told that in some localities in the county one dollar has been offered. "If the farmers could: Fat a idollar a bushel they ought to sell; and \if they should do: so a vast sum of 'money would circulate in. the county. ‘Times all round would ease up and ‘new life and energy be infused into all’ tonsiness dffairs, -«
