Chronicles.

Hear me, oh ye tiliuts of the ■oil; open your ear’s and hearken into my voice. Put not your trust in men who ■how unto you models of strange and wonderful inventions, else ye be bamboosled and deceived. Look not upon the models of the machine that goeth forth into the fields to reap and gather up the sheaves. Nor upon the pump that requireth not human aid to seduce from its subterranean bed the sparkling water for the refreshment of the lowing kine. Turn ye away from him who presenteth them; flee from the Bound of his velvet embroidered voice. Else it bite ye like a serpent, aad oting ye like the prickling of the conscience of him who defrauded the publisher and payeth not his yearly tithes. From his lips droppeth taffy as droppeth taffy from the sugar tree in the camp of our fathers. Shun him, oh ye agitators of the clodded field, for he will draw over thins eyes the fleecy substance which is called wool, yea, verily, he will horaswoggle ye with words that are pleasant unto the ear. He will say unto you: “Sign ye this covenant, that ye may act in my stead and supply the toiling masses with my handiwork. “Serve ye as my agent; for will ye not therefore wax rich; will not the silver and gold flow into coffers. ; “Sign quickly I beseech ye, that another may not reap the golden harvest in thy stead.” And when ye sign or engrave upon the convenant thy seal, he will go on his way rejoicing saying unto himself, “Verily did I not strike the suffer handsomely; did I not turn the trick in bang-up shape? When a fortnight passes the machines have came not: the wonderful mechanism failed to materialize. But in their stead there cometh into ye a person clothed in fine raiment and a look of'dignity.

And present*th unto ye your covenant, saying: “Payest unto me what thou owes t; pungle up the ducats, else I bring ye before the judge. “I hold here thy note of hand for 3722.10.” Then will ye wax sore afraid, and your heart will be in your bosom as heavy as the biscuit of the amateur cook. And ye will go down inte your garment for aerip, and will pay the amount, While the atanger will wear an electric smile. And when tile man of fine raiment departeth, ye will say unto your wife; “Yea verily, am not I a condemned fool?” And she will softly reply “you bet.” Then will ye seize your ledger, and write upon the debit side To dimfooli«k*e*a » S'ii.lo And on the credit aide thereof: Sy experieoeo 11000,<wo,0«0,uov,000 —Dfti tii Free- tti». ' <■> Mr. Alexander Grannell, of Albany, N. Y., says: “I had been for years troubled with great weakness of my digestive organs, which seemed to be alwavs out of fix. Most usually I suffered from constipation, and at other times a severe running off at the bowels would set in. No remedy I ever tried would regulate this function until I tried Brown’s Iron Bitters. It really benefitted .me from the first day I used it. My habits are now perfectly regalar, and as a true strengthened©! the digestive organs I think Brown’s Iron Bitters woatb its weight in diamonds. Matches for sale at the post office lobby.

Our wheat crops look exceedingly well. Stock is wintering well. Vaccination is in full blast. George Anderson has reroofed his house. Dow Brasket has moved into his new house. John Humes is building an addition to his barn. We learn that Georgo Alter, who moved his saw-mill from this township, has it in operation in Barkley. Several bands of. “Nubbin Ridgers*’ were seen ascending the Iroquois during the past week in quest of muskrats, minks, rabbits, or any other kind of game which would help to defray the expense of decorating their dog necks with ornaments in in the spring, in compliance with the new dog law. They were armed with spears and hatchets, and accompanied by dogs. , The railroad company has dropped a cqaple of stations just outside the borders of our township; one in Newton township, and another in Newton county. But as we did not vote the tax the company has taken no special pains to give us any little presents of that kind. We still have hopes however of a flag station, at least at Eagle-nest ridge, near the Iroquois river as this is the highest sandridge on the line. The one from which most of the road bed between the two rivers w r as made and which yet Begins almost inexhaustible.
