It is said that if a piece of cotton batting is tied around an oak tree it will
effectually prevent the foliage being
destroyed by worms. A Jackson man
says he has tried it and it has proved
effectual, the worms not being able to
crawl over the cotton.—Chelsea Standard.

The Hillsdale fair begins two weeks

to a larger fair than ever. A number
of improvements on the grounds have J
been made including a large addition

One of our business men in passing
near the first ward school house last
Thursday, noticed the flag flying at
half-mast. Not having heard of the
death of the poet "Whittier. he stopped
and inquired of some workman if they
knew why the flag on tho school house
was half-masti* One of them whose
brogue betokened his Celtic origin
raised up and said: "I think Sor, it is
far.Tohn L. Soollivan." The ludicrous-
ness of the quick-witted answer brought
out a general laugh.—A. A. Courier.
Jim Babcock, of Ann Arbor, had an
eccentric and wealthy old uncle. He's

*uch stuck on matrimouy, but he
wouldn't seen, quarter of a million dollars slide out from under him, by default, and a young lady of Waukesha,
Wis., has agreed to see that he does
not forfeit his bequest.—Adrian Press.
The Milan Leader is telling" some
phenominal big stories aboutquails and
chickens. A week or so ago it told of
a hen hatching outa flock of quails,and
now it comes out with the story of
quails mothering two chickens. This
almost equals the story of the hen that
was near sighted and ate sawdust, supposing that it was corn meal, then went
away and laid a nest full of bureau
knobs, sat on them three weeks and
hatched out a. complete set of parlor
furniture. This reminds us of the
story of another hen that set on ahride's
mince pie and hatched ten night mares
with blue ribbons tied to their tails.—
Ann Arbor Register.
Forty-eight hours passed after the
burning of Frank Sheffield's building,
last week, before Mr. Sheffuld became
aware of the fact, and then only when
he. beheld the ashes with his own eyes.
The building was nicely finished and
furnished as a home. The. loss was an
exceedingly heavy one as it was the
loss of not only a comfortable home but
a nicely arranged workshop .besides,
with a set of tools which were the accumulation of years. Sixty dollars in
money was also burned, leaving Mr.
Sheffold entitled to, and we believe he
has; the sympathy of all.—Dexter
Leader.
We hear of a shrewd clergyman now
a*jd then and this is the latest heard
r m:  A minister in a- country town
!scovered that his salary was not large
Enough for the support of an increasing
cf family, and having had some experience
in carpentry he began doing odd jobs
for his parishoners.   His business grew
rapidly, and soon he hung a sign bearing the word "carpenter" in front of the
parsonage.   But in the early spring he
bethought himself of the coming sea-
sou  of   weddings and added another
word to his sign.   It now reads "carpenter and joiner."—Chelsea Herald.
On the evening of Sept._14th, occurred
one of the few society events of this season, that being the date chosen by Mr.
Wm. Clark, of Chelsea, and Miss-Allie
Bortle, of this place, for their marriage.
The ceremony was performed in the
M. E. church by the Rev. T. G. Potter,
in the presence of some hundreds of invited guests, and was followed by a brilliant reception at the house.
The church had been tastefully "decorated by Mr. and Mrs. Pierce, assisted
by friends who desired, in every way
possible, to show their regard for the
young couple. The rostrum was extended to the front seats, and a double
crossed arch of green, from the centre
of which a floral bell was suspended,
erected. There were ropes of evergreen stretched in various directions
and horseshoes hung over the aisles.
Mrs. Frank Clark presided at the
organ, and the bridal party took position to the strains of a wedding march.
Misses Daisy Humphrey, Carrie Davenport, Lottie Wallace and AltaBriggs
acted as ushers.
At precisely 8 o'clock the church
doors were locked, and the ceremony
was performed in the hush which should
attend such a solemn event.
Miss Maude Taylor, of Centreville,
and Mr. McCarthy, of Ypsilanti, acted
as bride's maid and groom's man.
As the first tone fell from the organ
the procession entered, Miss Davenport,
followed by Miss Wallace, then by Miss
Taylor, and lastly by the bride proceeding up the north aisle, while Miss
Humphrey, Miss Briggs, Rev. Mr.
Potter, Mr. McCarthy and the groom
went up the south aisle. The ushers
stepped, facing each other, on eitber
side of either aisle, at the foot of the
steps, to permit the bridal party to
pass between them, then followed and
completed the semi-circle formed under
the arch. The bride and groom knelt
during the latter part of the ceremony,
then the newly-inade husband and wife,
followed by the balance of the party in
couples, left by the south aisle, Mrs.
Clark playing another march.
At the house there was much merriment, the few tears demanded by the
occasion and congratulations and good
wishes galore.
Previous   to   supper   the  Rev.   Mr.
Bartlett served an intellectual feast in
the shape of an original poem, which
he read in his usual forcible style.
The bride was   dressed   in  a light.
**&
mastic  colored  Bedford   cord   gown,
with demi train and trimmed with ribbon and lace. A carelessly tied buuch
of pink and white roses lmng by pink
ribbons from her arm.
The maid of honor wore a gown of
Gobelin blue crepon, also lace trimmed,
with demi-traiu, and she carried yellow roses.
The ushers were prettily arrayed in
dresses befitting" the occasion.
OE the masculine attire nothing is
worthy of mention but the regulation
white tie and boutonier.
Of refreshments there was—everything, lavishly served by pretty young
ladies.
The presents, a list of which we give
below, were numerous beautiful and
costly.
Altogether it was one of the prettiest
weddings Saline has ever known, and
the marriage day had nearly slipped
into the past, and a new day been born,
when the last guests left the scene of
festivity.
May the good Father have this newly
established family in His tender keeping, and so order their liyes that there
may be just enough of cloud to accentuate the sunshine; just enough of purifying fire to consume the dross, and leave
only the pure gold of their natures.
