At 1 o ’clock the members met in
the hall of the Junction Grange,
where they put on their regalia,
formed in procession and marched
to tho church, headed by a band of
music, and a flag of the Great P la
ne Grange. The flag had at the
head of it the words, “ The Patrons
of Husbandly.” Underneath were
the are, plow and harrow— the em-
b’ ems of industry.

laden with fruit, were conspicuous
as was the bundle of ripe wheat on
the right f.in gc— the symbols of

balanced scales, representing justice,
was a prominent feature in the cen
ter, as was u full-blown rose at the
bottom
tlie flag— indicating that
the farmer's home was to be orna
mented and made attractive. rJ he
flag was well-designed, beaulifullv
executed, and much admired. "When
the members wore sealed, the baud
played an appropriate air. Mr. F.
W. Folsom, the Master of Junction
Grange, called the meeting to order
in a few appropriate remarks. The
choir, led by the Messrs. Gilbert,
and 3Iiss 31 ary Test-on the harmon
ium, sang in good style, “ W e envy
not the princely man.” Judge H. N.
Hill read the opening prayer. The
band played a second piece of music,
all of which gave a bright and cheer
ful tone to tho meeting.
THE OR.VTON.
Bathing.
Bathing is mot only an act of clean
liness, but is in an eminent degree
conduc ve to health. The fine and
sensitive pores of the skin soon be
come torpid, and their delicate and
most important functions are sus
pended by the solid materials in the
prespbation and the accumulation of
filth, and require very frequont ablu
tion with water, to preserve the nor
mal condition, without which no
person can be healthy, happy or com
fortable.
The mere wea ing of
p oper cloth ng and washing of the
move exposed portions of the body,
and the frequent changing of cloth
ing, is but an imperfect attempt at
cleanliness, without being accom
panied by entire submersion of the
body in water, either tepid or cold.
It must be admitted bv every seusi-
ble person, that there is no more
real appreciative luxury than a pleas
ant general bath when the system is
in a proper condition to receive such
a bath; it is, in fact, one of the
most valuable but most neglected
hygienic remedies we poses«.
We admit that many people are
susceptible of taking cold, and are,
so to speak, “ living barometers;”
but even to such the warm bath
would always prove advantageous.
One-half or more of the rheumatic
twinges,
swollen limbs,
and
cramped joints
that occur
in
such
persons, would
yield to
proper perseverance and confidence
in this potent alleviator. For ordi
nary purposes, care must lie taken
that a warm bath is not used at too
high a temperature at first. As a
general rule, we would advise, more
especially in cases where some chrome
diseases is firmly located, using the
warm bath for a few days, first fol
lowed by the tepid bath, then the
cold. In all coses, whether the
warm, tepid or cool bnlh is used,
the first shoul be of only a few min
utes duration, which soon may be
increased to ten of fifteen minutes
at a time, care being taken never to
remain immersed sufficiently long to
induce a sensation of cold on com
ing out. A healthy reaction should
follow the bath, and a pleasant glow
of warmth should diffuse itself over
the surface of the body. If this be
not the ease, the bath has been in
dulged in too long, or injudiciously
taken. When any symptom a]»pears
that contra-indicates the use of the
cold bath, the tepid, warm, or vapor
bath may be substituted, according
to circumstances. At any rate keep
the skin freo and active by some
kind of bathing, the frequency of
which must depend upon all the
surrounding conditions and habits
of each life. — Manufacturer and

The leading event, of the day was
the oration by the Hon. J. H. Smith,

3fr. Smith’s address was short, eom-
piehensive, witty, argumentative and

approbation by the meeting. He
spoke of the fanners, artisans and
mechanics as the great producing
classes; but heretofore as the worst

How
a
Woman Buys
Ticket.
a Railroad
Fanny Fern enumerated a lot of
things which she said no woman
could do; but she forgot sev
eral items, and
among other
things she forgot to mention that
the woman has never been found
yet who can buy a railroad ticket
and get herself safely on l>oard a
train without raising a general com
motion and bothering everybody
else around the place, and then she
always looks as though she thought
she ought to have a present of %
new silk dress for getting on the
car at all. There was one of this
kind of women went over to Newark
the other day. She got down to the
ferry alxmt five minutes before the
boat started, and o f course she
didn’t have any ticket, so she step
ped up to the office to buy one.
First she asked the clerk what time
the next train left for Newark.'*
“ Six o ’clock, madam.”
“ What time is it now ? ’*
In reply the clerk pointed to the
clock, winch occupied a conspicuous
position.
“ Oh, yes, I forgot.”
And then she took out her watch
and found that she was just about
a minute and three-quarters slow.
Of course she didn’t alter the watch
— she never intended to— but it was
a satisfaction to know just how it
was. By this time there were two
or three more women and a half a
dozen men behind her waiting for a
chance to buy their tickets; bot(
bless y o u ! that woman paid no more
attention to them than she did to
the presence of the equinoxes. F i-
n.ally she remembered she wanted a
ticket, so she felt for her pocket-
book and couldn’t find it, until she
happened to think that it was in her
reticule, which was harnessed to her
waist, and so she got hold of that
and wriggled and twisted until she
got it in front of her and managed
to find the pocket-book. Of course
it had money iu every compartment,
and the mouey was all waded and
twisted up so the book was ready to
burst. First she unrolled a lot o f
large bills and rolled them up better;
then she looked at some ones and
twos, but concluded she wouldn't
have a bill changed, so she rumaged
around and found a lot of postal
currency, but it wouldn’t pay to havo
the clerk make change for her, so
she hunted until she found a fifteen-
cent stamp, then she got out a two-
cent piece and then chased a three-
eent piece all around that pocket-
b»x>k, and when she captured it she
laiddown the twenty cents and looked
at the ticket-man as though she ex
pected to hear him thank her for
saving him all the trouble of mak
ing change, but he didn't say any
thing of the kind and didn’t even
look much as though he meant to.
Of course any body would think,
when she h td lxmght her ticket,
this female might have got out of
the way, but she wasn’t quite ready
yet. She had to look at the ticket
and put it bark in her portmomye,
and put that in her haversack, and
wriggle that back where it belonged,
and then when she got in tho narrow
passage way leading to the l«»at, she
had to stop aud go through the
whole performance again before she
could tear off the coupon to give to
the taker. Just then she saw a wo
man behind her, and she couldn't
but wait another minute to talk over
that terrible affair about poor old
Mrs Smith. Meantime the fifteen or
twenty men liekind her were talking
about her. 3Iost of what they said
is iu the Prayer Book, but not in
quite the same order. By-and-bv,
however, she remembered she wan
ted to go to Newark and the boat
was just starting, so she hud to run
and so did the men, and then they
all came near missing the lioat and
all because that woman oouldn’t at
tend to business in a busine&a-like
way.
