The rain came down in torrents. It was the first of any account since early in i July, and so sudden did it come up that \ many were caught out unprepared, but was a welcome visitor nevertheless. x AN editor who was recently obliged to Abandon the publication of his news paper for the lack of support gave a very good reason for so doing when question­ ed as to the cause. He said that as everybody else had stopped the paper he thought it the best plan for himself to do the same thing. ; / r--!-* . /THE Board of Education, or a part of Of them at least, are agitating the ques­ tion of changing the site for the new ' building from the one voted for at the / school election to another on the hill, I west of the City Hall. As there are two sides to this question among the resi­ dents of the District we refrain from fur- tt»r remarks at this time. ONE of the errors ot young mien in se­ lecting a life occupation is in mistaking va liking for capability. The two may exist but the possession of one does not presuppose the possession of the other. "There is considerable difference between being pleased with an occupation atd being fitted for it," says Rousseau. Ee- . cause a young man's light fancies in the springtime of manhood lead him to at­ tempt the expression of them in poetry, is no possible argument for his attempt­ ing to be a poet. Nor if a young lady is fond of music does it follow that she will ffata a fine performer or singer? Vice versa, a man may not have great capa­ cities for a certain occupation, yet have ' no liking for it. Yet it is true that those j who have capacity for a particular line, generally like it, and as a rule to only fiftfeoomeciioeaM, Miss GBACE TAYLOR, who has been liv ing with her grandmother in this village, for the past few years, left on Tuesday for Lockport, N. Y., where she will live withjier mother in the future. MANY funny incidents are to be noted at the Great Fair. Theresa Dean tells of one of the Columbian guards to whom a woman said: "Is this the building where they sell the children^ " He looked aghast. That was evidently a new ques­ tion. He finally said: "Sell the children ? What children ? " I don't know, exactly. Some one told me that if people did not corue for their children in four hours they were sold." He told her that frhe was probably hunting for the childrens build­ ing, which was across the way, and if she would go there they would tell her all about it. Seal Estate Transfers.

A song service, led by the President, C. C. Miller, opened the flret session of the McHenry County Sunday School Con­ vention of 1893. This was followed by a Bible reading, led by Rev. Hall. Sub­ ject, "Christ, our Leader." Nellie Bald­ win was then elected recording secretary. The subject, "Our Present Need" was presented by C. C. Miller, who asked for the personal needs of those present, some of which were, "More Faith in God," "More Knowledge of God's Word," "A Willingness to Work" • and "More Workers." Thursday afternoon session opened with a prayer service, conducted by Rev. E. J. Rose. The address of welcome pre­ pared by Rev. Slade, on account of his absence was read by Miss McLean. The response was given by the fnnnty Provi­ dent, C. C. Miller, who dwelt upon the importance of Sunday School work, which was not to take the place of church work. The reports of township president, were next in order. Only thn-e township presidents were present, but the county was more fully reported than at previous conventions. The most re­ markable report was that of the town­ ship ol Algonquin, in which are the two towns, Algonquin and Cary. In Algon­ quin there is no Sunday school, while in Gary every child in the town attends either one or the other of the two Sun­ day schools there. After singing 'Sound the Battle Cry," the county secretary, Mrs, Kate Jones, gave her report. She reports a steady growth in all township Sunday school work, and Cary the ban­ ner town of the county. The district president, C. C. Miller, followed with the subject, "How to Improve the Work." Suggestions were called for among which were the following: That a Sunday school missionary be procured to work through the county organizing new schools and resuscitating those that are in a dying condition, and that more per­ sonal work must be done. Rev. Hall re­ ported the organization of the Sunday school at Ostend with 78 scholars, and Rev. Miller reported that of Keystone with over 40, showing the need ot organ­ izing schools in places where the children attended no Sunday school. The need of competent teachers in the Sunday school was emphasized. "Ought there not to be a systematic preparation tor Sunday school teaching as well >:as for the day school?" It was moved and carried that a nominating committee be ap­ pointed for election of officers. Thecom- mittee appointed were: Mrs. Huff, Miss Mary Thompson, Rev. Miller, Dr. Piicher and Rev. Hall. Closed by singing. Ben­ ediction by Rev. Hall. Thursday evening. Meeting opened by singing "What a Friend we have in Jesus." followed by prayer by Rev. Mil ler. Dr. Miller then led the song service, and also sang the solo, "Lead me to the Rock that is Higher than I." Mies Har­ low, of Massachusetts, the leading pri­ mary teacher of the United States was then introduced. She told the children the'story of the beautiful house built by the King, found in the last chapter of Eccles. "Systematic house to house vis­ itation" was presented by Rev. Hall, who stated the object to be to increase the attendance at Sunday sohool, to in­ crease the regularity attendance, and to spread the gospel. C. C. Miller then sang a solo, and all joined in singing "Blessed be the Tie that Binds," and were dismiss­ ed bv Rev. Hall. The opening services Friday morning were conducted by C. C. Miller. The first verse of the 14 chapter of John was re­ peated by all, and commented upon by the president. The importance of spirit­ ed singing in Sunday school was dwelt upon. The object of singing should be to increase the devotional spirit. A dis­ cussion was led by the president, "What do we need for better work in township and county?" The county secretary stated that the township and division officers should be more prompt in their work, to aid the county secretary in her work. Good active officers in every township are needed. It was moved and carried that the matter of a missionary for county be left with the county presi­ dent to confer with W. B. Jacobs, the decision to be backed by the county asso­ ciation. As W. B. Jacobs, on account of sick­ ness, could not be present, Miss Harlow took the subject, "Methods of Teaching illustrated by next Sunday's lesson." "in the preparation for the lesson first, get all^the facts, then what is the teach­ ing of the lesson, first for myself, next for my class. Center the lesson around the Golden Text for little ones, put the illustration of the lesson first, the impor­ tant thing last. To overcome the ignor­ ance, preoccupation and utter indiffer­ ence of class, let the illustration attract the eye. Every lesson should close with a direct reference to the soul interest." Miss Harlow then applied the sugges­ tions to the teaching of next Sunday's lesson in such a simple, beautiful man­ ner that the hearts of all interested in little ones were touched and filled with the determination of more earnestly working to interest and instruct them in the Mfo«pd truths of the Gospel. Meth­ od* ul Finance" was th«n taken up. It was moved and enrried that the county association pay $ 50 for county and state Sunday school work the coming year. The treasurer's report was read, stating that the total receipts since October, 1892, were f61.99. Amount expended, $12.41, leaving |49.58 in treasury. Moved and carried that the county asso­ ciation bear half the expense of the county secretary to the state associa­ tion at Quincy. "The Sunday school profitable to the life that now is," was presented by Rev. Goodman, who stated among other things that the highest morality is taught in the Sunday school. Every Sunday 9,000,000 of youth are brought into contact with our best men and women. Election of officers being then in order, the report of the commitr tee on nominations was called for which «as as follows: President, U. C. Miller; Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. Kate Jones. Section Coramitte, Northwest section, Miss Minnie Kingsley; Southwest section, Thos. Gilkerson; Southeast sec­ tion, E. B. Smith; Northeast section, Miss Lucy Hall. Moved and carried that we accept and adopt the report as a whole. Moved and carried that the time and place of holding the next convention be left with the officers. After singing "Blessed Assurance," Brother Goodman dismissed the meeting. Friday afternoon the song Fervice was led by Rev. Miller, who read part of the 5th chapter of Mathew. A Normal drill was conducted by C. C. Miller. After singing "Nearer the Cross" a collection was taken for state and county work. Miss Harlow followed with "Primary class methods" and said, "Children are immaginative and impressionable. Like photograph plate they reflect everything right or wrong. Children carry out from the Sunday school things we never said. There is something within us that teaches. There is something in child nature that responds to religious teach­ ing.. that dies out if it isnt fostered Shafl we work to bring out the" Christ natnHt or shall we let the evil develop? ChrieA^konmJfto true thyself ifthoutlietratit wonldst teach." Itwaamovedand oarried that we ae a convention, extend our thanks to the people of McHenry for their kindly enter- tainment. After singing "God be with you till we meet again," Rev. Hall pro­ nounced the closing benediction. M. NELLIE BALDWIN, Rec. Sec.

Xonse San Down Her Tbroat This is the kind of stories that grow in the ncck of the woods where the Hart­ ford Couraot is published: A woman living in the vicinity 6f Ed­ win Crary's drugstore recently threw up from her stomach a full-grown mouse. The woman had not been feeling well during the morning and about 11 o'clock complained to one of her neighbors who found her laboring considerably in her efforts to throw something off her stom­ ach. The neighbor, however, laid the cause of the trouble to something else, and when a physician was called the pa­ tient was told by him there was nothing serious the matter. During the evening, however, some medicine was obtained from the drug store which acted as an emetic, and the mouse then made its ap­ pearance. How the mouse could have gained ac­ cess to the stomach was at first a mys­ tery. The woman ia a heavy sleeper, and the only reasonable explanation is that Ihe fell asleep with her mouth open and the mouse, bent on exploring every unknown region suitable for a hiding place, ran down her throat, producing nausea, which caused the medicine to be sent for. The story was disbelieved at the drug store till the dead mouse was taken there and exhibited to the unbelievers. The woman has since experienced no bad effects from the unwelcome visitor.

' : ' r - : It', jrv }'.%£ ' , x t, „ IfiSlfllsfeK It is to be remembered that, notwith­ ing all we hear of the vast superiority of machine over handwork, this ma­ chinery must itself possess as great, if not greater, accuracy and refinement than the product manufactured by it. No machine can in this respect be su­ perior to its maker. It can only produce sufficiently accurate and good work at a lower cost than if made by him. The first sewing machine of a kind, built by skilled machinists or toolmakers, is at least as good and as accurately made as any subsequently manufactured by ma­ chinery, and the same men can dupli­ cate it more exactly than can any ma­ chinery, but machines built thus would cost far more than people could afford to pay for them, and that is all there is to the talk of the substitution of the "cer­ tainty and accuracy of machinery for the uncertainty and inaccuracy of hand­ work."--Scribner's Magazine.
