Now I thought I would write a few pieced for the paper and you may pub lish or not as ou see fit. The Band of Hope is having a great boom over here, the Band at Moritesaho have $300 in the treasury. If the Band of Hope would look at honie and knit utockings like our farmer's daughters in the East, and lei Ui Band of Hope a lone they might become more useful for Vives for our young men, but as tho case is now, they can't do anything but walk tho streets. Now you ought to see the old women walk the streets and get their names registered. O dear, they are so good, they intend to carry the coming election m favor of prohibition. If they succeed, w"hich it is to le hoped they may, then we will liavo an oppor tunity of knowing what women are ca pable of dolrig when invested with tha right of American Citizens.

The Christmas Tree at the Church was said to be well freighted with gifts, though the night was rough. Indeed the holidays have offered but little pleas ant weather. We were too sick to be present and jo with our family remained at home. Our holidays- have personally been anything but sweet, though we are glad to be on the mend. We surely thought this time we should pass in our tickets, hutfttill we are alive. J. Press Walker reports that T. A.

He was faithful and industrious, hut there was in liim a latent indolence which, made him fond ot taking his rod to fish, or, with his gun upon his shoul der, lie would roam in search of game oyer the lomj, low hills bursting with . ted clay, There are living at present sev eral old citizens who knew Lincoln well at that time. Ho was thoughtful, and hia solitary expeditions probably gave jiim plenty of opportunity to indulge hia meditative faculties. Tho description of his appearauoo then his long, lank legs under an awkward body ; his home ly face upon wh'ch the prominent nose etood like a handl ; las long hair dan gling upon ha shoulders brings up in stantly the picture of Ichabod Crane ia tho twilight stealing over the hills of Slecpv Hollow to pay his court to Frau- lein Katrina Voa Tassel. Tho embryo statesman was full of spirit and fond ot mad pranks. One qM gentleman of Tkockport lives to tell of tho last time ho saw Lincoln. He Was visiting the Lincoln homestead, and, as he was coming away, they found a trespassing cow hanging about tho gate. The cow had given the Lincolna much annoyiuica by entering their gar den and committing depredations. Young Abo ws c-xvwed iu a suit o jeans, without any coat, as it was sum-, mer time, and on his head ho wore a broad-brimmed white straw hat, part of which was cracked and broken. Find ing tbo cow standing hypocritically xnoek at tho gate, young Abo leaped astride of her bnck, and, digging bis bare heels into her sides, tho astonished animal broke away down the road in a lumber hi g ga'lop. " Tho last I saw ol Abe Lincoln," the old gentleman relates fondly, "ho was swinging hia Lat, shouting at tho top of his voice, gallop, ing down the road on that thunderstruck cow."

I BU ALL COSTEXIIUXALITIKS, One of the tests of breeding, it is said, lies in the use of the knife and foik. Thirty years ago, in Franco, the use ol the knife at tlinuer was almost tabooed. The cuBtoni was to divide the food with the fork rather an awkward custom, as forks have generally no cutting edge' and to aid the act of conveying food to tho mouth on tho fork by means of a bit of bread. Long habit makes people amazingly 6lever about this kind of thing j and to see a well-cultured Charleston or Savannah woman loading her fork with grains of rice, without epilling a kernel, is tho acme of intelli gent manipulation. Tho older one grows, and the better ho becomes acquainted with the world and it habitSj the less fastidious one become In regard to tho little conventionalities of lifo.

The pretty Japanese girl with clean hands, who takes the boiled rice with extended fingers out of the well-scrubbed pail and puts it into your lacquer saucer, does it so well and so gracefully that you do not call for a Cpoon.

Voting- Ladles, Beware of Dnnslern f The dangler falls into a habit of drop, ping iu at all seasons, and, in a short lime, from bt ing a good-looking -ouug man, and of tolcrabio address, becomes a privileged person in the household.
