TIIE Geneva Lake Herald lias the following: "The other'day a gentle­ man of Chicago, visiting his summer home here, procured half a dozen flying squirrels. On his homeward trip, he opened the box to show his trophy, and n doing so one of the animals escaped. The car was hunted over, high an 1 low, but no sign of the squirrel could be found; seats were turned over, baggage move.l and everything turned upside down and the owner was about giving up the chase, when we were all specta­ tors of a circus not down ill thn bills. A pretty young lady in the center of tlie car gave a screech that scared Conduc tor Brooks almost out of the car, and for a mir.ute or two the co&cti seemed to be full of a miscellaneous lot of red and wltita merchandise and two well- shaped feet and their continuations. (At any rate Senator Palinetier said they were well-shaped. We didn't dare look to see). It seems that the squirrel had--but why prolong the narrative? Conductor Brooks, with that gallantry for which lie is truly noted, sprang for­ ward and rescued both the young lady and the squirrel and harmony was re­ stored." SPRING GROVS.

LL. D. EDITOR PLAINDEALER:--Having read an article in the PI.AINDKALER several weeks since, In which the writer pro­ posed to give an exposition of the 32d verse or Mark. 13th chapter. "But of thSt wSj aiini Ciiait liwlil kuuncili iiO man," etc. I have read each succeeding Issue, hoping to meet with it. This subject has been several times com­ mented ̂ upon in the circle of my ac­ quaintance. and not a little curiosity elicited to know how the writer of said article Is going to dispose of this re­ markable text on the basis fore­ shadowed. What Is the matter? Has he changed his views, or does he shrink from the responsibility of fulfilling his pledge ? A PRIORI. ^OME editor to us unknown, thus re letes hi* experience, and we add our testimony to the general ^truthfulness of his story: " About once a month we have a 'set to' with some subscriber because he. his wife, daughter, or grandmother, left town or came and no mention of the fact was made in the Personal' column. If we ask them why they did not in Turin us of the fact, they look horrified and want to know if we think they they 'are going to be silly enough to tell the editor when­ ever they go or come.' Now we can­ not sec why they shouldn't inform an editor if they expect him to mention it. How Is he going to print it unless somebody tells him? The real silliness and weak lies is not in informing the editor of your movements or those of your friends, but rather, in keeping the fact to yourself, and tiien blowing him up because he did not mention it. That is decidedly siily. Right here h a good place to explain this 'Person­ al'column business. In the first place the personal Is not given for flattery or compliment's sake. It Is simply a matter of social news. One man or woman is just as good as another in that column. But prominent peoples movement* sre more easily known than ethers, and then again they usually have good sense, and knowing we wish to keep track of the social news they kindly take pains to inform us on these matters. Now here Is a plan which will work every time. If you are go­ ing to be absent, or If your.friends are visiting you, wr'te the name and ini­ tials plainly with place of residence ar destination on a postal card. It will cost you one cent and a little effort, and you will show your good ooauoor. sense In doing it." ifiTVery sad, Indeed, Is th* import that comes from Montague, Ma«s. It is a small village yet contains forty widows, twenty old maids,, and eighteen young misses of marriageable age, while there.^re only nineteen single gentlemen liV the plaae.

Programme to consist of a debate and other liter­ ary exercises. We thank the Greenwood correspond­ ent for so kindly (?) complimenting us on our modesty. It is entirely out of their line of business for the Hebron organization to monopolize the peanut trade, and Greenwoed may re^t assured that they will never be strong «aoilgh, unless Vaaderbilt or Gould should join them--which wa think probable--and as for Insd springs, "Tom and Jerry" or Levi cannot humbug them, when they csn get the Hopkins bed spring with patent head rest for less money. Per­ haps the salesmen would have better success if they and their associates would keep their heads clear, as the Hebron people are strictly temperate. We acknowledge our fault in net giving the lad)/ (?).a part of the road, bat we think it would haye been almost im­ possible to have run over her as she stood her gre'ind like a major. We have known for some time that Green­ woed wtaftrtt on the list in the knowl­ edge of true politeness, and it might be a deed ol charity for them to pub-. Hah a book on the "elementary rules.'« And talking of "good solid sense," we are sure that Hebron tins enough of that article to cast aa large a shadow as her sister town. AUCTION SALE.

Interesting to Ladles. Our lady readers eau hardly fail to have their attention called this weeV to the latest combination of improve­ ments in that most useful of all domes­ tic implements, the "sewing machine," A' we understand it, a machine for family use should meet first of all these requirements: It should be simple iu its mechanism; It should run easily ; it should do a wide range of work; it thould be as nearly, noiseless as possi­ ble; it should be light, handsome, dura­ ble, and as cheap as is consistent with excellence throughout. These conditions the •'Light-Running New Home" certainly meets. It has also several very Important aud useful attachments aud "notions" of its own. whioogo far to make good its claims to popular favor. The "New Home" specially recom­ mends itself to purchasers on account of its superior mechanical construction, eaae of management and reasoaable price. Over half a million have been sold in the last three years, all of which are giving universal satisfaction.
