The average roan usually finds him- self at sea when he undertakes a des- cription of a lady's dress. Ai old far- mer, returning from the wedding of a niece in a distant city, was eagerly questioned by his family as to the bride's costume, "Well," he said, "she had on some sort of a dress with a lot of flub• duibbery of some kind or 'nother down the front of it and a thing -a -ma -jig on the back of it, and a long trail of some stuff, I don't know what it was, dragg- ing behind, and a lot of flip•flap flounces over the whole thing. There wa'n't no arias to it, and she had a lot of white truck, soft and floppy -like on her head and that's all I know about it," all of which must have been very unsatis- factory to the ladies of his household.

A Jamestown man in Missouri sends home the following in a letter.—"They have changed the time so- that the trains run in the day time now, so we get the Eastern mail at 10 o'clock a. m. They had to quit running nights be• cause the mosquitoes were so thick that the locomotive wheels slipped on the rails, and the largest ones would catch lightning bugs and flag the trains and stop them, so that they could get in and kill the passengers. The boys up at the milts tell me that they have to take an ase to cut a hole through the scum on the water to get a drink. I don't know if this is true or not, as I don't drink water." Make a display. Ere many days. our Fall Fair will be here. Every citizen is interested in its success. A spirit of unanimity ought to actuate the citizens in regard to the Fair. Our merchants • should show what they can do when they set them- selves to it. There may be little trouble' and expense connected with merchants and manufacturers exhibiting at the Fair, but a wholesome pride and a little public spirit when he argues that noth- ing is to be gained by exhibiting at the Fair. The Fair brings strangers to town. The better it is the ' more will eome,and the more strangers will come the Vetter it will be for the town and business. Much depends upon our busi- ness men to make the affair a success, and they ought to be patriotic enough °even' to 'credit a little to make the Fair a credit to Exeter. Viewed in another light, a poor Fair gives strong ers a poor opinion of the town and its industries, and as a ,matter of self-in- terest our merchants and manufactur- ers should arrange to: Make large dis- plays at the fair 23rd and 24th.

Laid fiat on the floor he can be taken by the feet and Tolled up like a bale of cloth and this does not in any way hurt him, The bones of his arms are equally pliable and they eau be rolled up tightly commencing with the fingers, A striking peculiar- ity of his tongue is the elastieity of it, he. can stretch it out to the length of twelve to fifteen .inches. We under- stand that young Smith was not al- ways in his present state and that his elastic condition is beeenting more pronounced all the time, ills appetite is good, and his sister, who takes care of him, has her hands frill in doing so; Itis intellectual developments is not of the highest order, though he is not dull by any means on some subjects.
