The Individual who. prophesied an open winter walked around with an air of self-satisfaction and a MI told you so" expression on his countenance all last week, L'he weather was so pleasant, so springlike, why, all thro' the woods tbe very buttercups and lit­ tle violets opened their leaves and seemed regarding the snow patches on mother earth's dress with awe. And then came gloomy dajs, gray above and below, which made us almost wish that the Frost King would ceme danc­ ing along with bis armies FOF snow flakes, to dress nature up in her spark­ ling array. But there, time's up; train's coming. Mail Agent Nlsh will not wait; Engineer Smith won't let him. Neither will Uncle Sami. Will tell you the rest SOME other day. While Mike Flutter, Ifrank Wray's hired man, was driving cittle Satur­ day, the horse be was riding stumbled and fell, breaking Fluker's leg In sev­ eral places. Dr. E. R. Bennett at­ tending him.

'TJ[I SOL#; that the Daaelng Club will have a party soon. It is hoped the at­ tendance will be better thau at the last one, for tbe boys always have first class music and endeavor to have every thing pleasant.

Why not? There are. plenty desirable hills, and hew nice It would be. One of the changes wfiich time has brought since the PLAINDEALER last heard from me Is that Dr. S. R. Ward has sold his praotlce anl bis home to a Dr. Waters. No one who knows Dr. Ward will need to be told how much his friends will rnlss him and how re­ luctantly they part with so kind, so patient a Physician, so honorable a gentleman and so good a citizen. Dr, Waters comes •plendldly«rocoramend- ed and has already won fnany friends by his medical skill and liis cheerful, benevolent face. He Is I kindly ap­ pearing man, with the air of a thor­ ough gentleman and we welcome him and his wife to tbe village we call home, hoping honestly that they will find here many friends and many, many happy days. Hattle Cottlng died December 3d, 1886, In her sixteenth yesff. How In­ finitely sad Is such a death; And bow invariably do we pause at; such a time to wonder why such great sarrows are to line a mothers brow and make every heartache, Fain would I tell jou of that beautiful life which,like a fragile rose just budding Into sweetest, fair­ est bloom, was plucked by the scythe which the relentless band of death held. The saddened home circle has all the sympathy that human hearc can feel, and they are many wpo wish that that enemy, consumption, had stayed his cruel hand and left that fair young girl. The world seems dark When such a life Is taken; the sliver lining to such clouds seems very far away Yet after all they say 'tis best and I believe it. That soul wenc back to its God untarnished by this world's bit­ terness and left behind a record of un­ alloyed goodness. How gr^at a conso­ lation and how much better such lives mske us all.
