Now Is a most propitious time to trot out those almost forgotten pledges of nearly twelve months, dust off tbe new leaves then turned over, but allowed to turn back, and prepare to oommence tbe new year with better alms, better de­ sires and a stronger will. An experienced nur*e says nothing la better to purify tbe air of the sick room than an open vessel of water. It Is an absorbent of the exhaustion, and at the same time throws ofl parti­ cles of moisture; physicians ol experi­ ence have time and again recommend- 'ed the measure, but its simplicity has Often caused it to be neglected. ONE of our exchanges advances the Idea that If farmers who have horses In pastures fenoed with barbed wire would plow a furrow or two around the pasture Inside tbe fence, tbe dan­ ger would not be so great as without. Tbe stock will be able to distinguish tbe line at nlgtt and thus avoid being horribly mangled and perhaps killed. WE would call especial atteution to the advertisement of the Harmless Spnr Wire, which oan be found in another column. It Is so far ahead of tbe old murderous barbed wire that It needs only a glance to convince any one It should take the place of every foot of barbed wire tn the country. Samuel Sherman Is tbe agent In this vicinity. Read the advertisement. AH editor Is presumed to know what la beat for his paper. Our object Is to do the most good to tbe greatest num­ ber. Others may think they know better than tbe editor what is best to publish and what not to. but should It oome to the actual test they would do the aame thing In the matter as an editor.

Twee a warm manahg in. when I shouldered my rifle nod* Started with ray dog for the "Giant's Basin," hoping to bring home a fine buck, for the venison was running low at the camp, and in this region winter seta in early, and when first here, stays. The basin waa a favorite "lick" for deer, "and this fall had been a plentiful one for them. The road led through sunny Keene Valley, where it turned up the mountain and led for the rest of the way along the sides of different ledges, sometimes high in the air, and again along the dry ledge of a mountain stream. At last the basin was reached, and after waiting an hottr or more my patience was rewarded by obtaining a fat young buck, which I quartered and hung on a tree, to await the arrival of a party of trappers who,were going to join me at the basin on the foltywing morning. Before preparing for the night I took it into my head to have a partridge for supper, and started out accordingly. Luck seemed against me, and I was ' about to turn back for the basin, when to my dismay 1 had not the least idea which way to turn, and it had grown very dark, the wind had come up, and every appearance of a cold night per­ vaded the air. While pondering what to do, the wind brought to my ears a cry or moan so faint as to be hardly heard above the whispering balsams, but all doubt was removed by a second crj much nearer and more distinctly that tlie first. I now realized what the cry meant, and I knew that the smell of fresh venison had attracted the nose of one of the ugliest animals of the forest, THE dancing public should remem­ ber the Annual New^earti Party, to be held at tbe Riverside'House, In this village, on Tuesday evening, Jan. 1st, 1889.
