Hudson Post: About S200 is being expended by Tecumseh Masons in beautifying- their lodge rooms. The same old
goat will be retained, because the society believes iu strength, and it is a
well-known fact that the older the
"butter*" the stronger it-becomes.
The wife of Bha Conklin, of Manchester, last week committed suicide by
hanging herself in an out house while
visiting relatives in Bridgewater township. She had been failing mentally

Caroline Erause has boon denied a
divorce from her husband, Caleb
Krai-se. by Judge I&nnie. The ease is
art "-tnusual one. Three times this
couple have been marrie'l and as many
times divorced tipQii tho grounds of
pviielty, Judge Kinne wisely thought
such performances should bo stopped.
Democrat: For a nnrnbsr of years-
Major Soule has been endeavoring to
secure a. specimen of moose for the university museum. He has felt discouraged at time as the moose is not as
plentiful as in former days and began
to think he should be unable to secure
one when a line skin was sent him from
Lake "Winnepeg. The animal was killed about 275 miles north of there and
the hide carried on a man's shoulders
to Lake Winnipeg whenit was forwarded to Mr. Soule. A. B. Covert, the
taxidermist, has mounted it and it
looks very natural and is a very fine
specimen of a female moose. It stands
about six feet high. .
Sentinel: The work of demolishing
the old Barton House began Monday
morning-.' "Thus passeth away the
glory of the world.*" The lower part
of the house dates f roni the. very earliest
foundation of the pity.. The upper
third story was added at a much later
day, \vhen' it took on the character of a
public house. Three weeks ago it stood
apparently as sure of an expended future
as any b.uiMing in the city, and the
proprietor- had an offer of several thousand for it. Last Saturday it was bid
i off at auction for §30 aud less than
thirty, clays it will be nowhere. Another old landmark will be gone, and a
new creation will take its place.   Such
are the effects of alittle fire getting out
of its proper place.

Merit Wins
"We desire to say to our citizens, that for
years we have been selling Dr. King's New
Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's
New Life Pills, BucHen's Arnica Salve and
Electric Bitters, and have never handled
remedies that sell as well, or that have
given such universal satisfaction. We do
not hesitate to guarantee them every time,
and we stand ready to refund the purchase
price, if satisfactory results do not follow
their Ube. These remedies have won their
great popularity purely on their merits.
Geo. B. Mason, Druggist. 1
There is no place where flowers show
to such advantage as in the home,writes
the New York florist, Klunder, in The
Ladies' Home Journal. The flowers
and plants should be placed in their
proper shading so as to produce the
best effect. Never overcrowd in floral
decorations. This is very important.
The mpst popular -,vay of decorating
the home consists in placing beautiful
foliage plants, in different shades of
green in corners, on small stands and
etagere. Flowers ai-o used with long
stems and their own foliage, put in
cases. A very neat thing is a small
number of miniature vases and cut-
glass bpwls, placed on little tables and
filled with different-colored carnations,
lil ies-of-the-valley, mignonette, or other
seasontibjo (lowers. Each specimen
should ho hy itself. This produces an
exceedingly pretty effect. The fireplaces should he well filled with potted
plants, such as ferns and variegated
foliage plants. Over pictures and doors
a neat effect is obtained by draping
long-trailing ferns and passion-vines in
bloom. To keep flowers fresh as long
as possible, be sure to cut a little off
the stem each day. A hard crust forms
on the end of the stem* which prevents
the water from ascending, and this
should be cut away each day. A little
charcoal in the water in which the
flowers stand, will sweeten them and
keep them fresh longer.
