ON A SUMMER MORNING On a summer morning, hearts are sweet to sow " "The music of the summer in blossoms where they go. Soul and senses singing, Thus through life and love From dust and tears to dreaming Of skies of blue above. On a summer morning, up and let us swing Down the paths of clover, fame of love to sing Whispering winds before us, Lane and byre a sweet Of golden life whose chorus Comes rippling o'er the wheat. On a summer morning, ah, what calm, what peace! All the mortal warrings of the old world cease, Humming birds low-darting, Robins at the gate Sad to sing love's parting Though the night's be late. Or a summer morning; come, and toil shall last 'When the dreams and daring of the ways are past. Out in life, together, Out to ewing and play In dreams that crown the weather And love that wreathes the May. The Bentztown Bard. LOCAL AND PERSONAL Miss Marietta Berry is the guest of Mrs. J. R.

I had always canned all kinds of fruit and tomatoes, but thought that the canning of vegetables was for the large canning factories only. I have found out that they may be canned at home as well as fruit I use my wash boiler. Make a frame to fit the pot about two inches from bottom, a lid that fits the top good and tight and you have your can ner. I filled my jars to about one inch of top with green peas, then filled to the top with water, put on rings, screwed the lid down, but not tight, put in the boiler, filled the boiler about half full of water, placed the lid on and boiled for thirty minutes; took the jars out and tightened the lids good and tight so they would not leak, put them hack, filled the boiler to about one inch of top of jars and plac ed a heavy weight on top of the boiler lid and boiled for one hour. I can limas, corn and okra the same as peas, and have never lost but one jar. I always boil rings, lids and jars in a strong soda water before using. I always begin canning as soon as the mall berries get ripe, and continue until frost. Our tnain crop of peaches get ripe in July and August, after the berries are gone, and our late tomatoes are ready for canning in September, so you see we always plan to have one thing follow another. By doing so 1 can keep jright up with all that would otherwise go to waste. I have never tried to can cabbage, as we feed them to the hogs, and in turn we get plenty of nice pork. I can all berries and peaches in thin syrup, as they taste much better than they do when canned in water. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. This is a remedy that every family should be provided with, and especial ly during the summer months. Think of the paia and suffering that must be endured when medicine must be sent for or before relief can be obtained. Thia remedy is thoroughly reliable. Ask any one who has used it. Obtain able everywhere. CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our friends for the many kindnesses shown us during the sickness and death of our dear father and husband. Respectfully, : Mrs. W; C. York and family, 1
