REUNION
Of the
Ritchie Family
Peninsula.
Held Near
.The fifth annual reunion of the
Ritchie family was held August 18,
at the residence of vm. Ritchie,
near Peninsula. The day was all
that could be desired. Representa
tives from Cleveland, Akron, Tall
madge, Stow, Boston and Northfleld,
to the number of about 50, besides in
vited guests were present. Among
the latter were Mrs. Alexander Mc
Connell and daughter, Hettie, iff
Sorthfleld; Miss Sarah McConnell,
of North field; Mrs. Corlett, of Cleve
land; Mr. Claire Murray, of Akrdn.
A sumptuous table was spread un
der the grateful shade of orchard
trees.
The only regrets were that there
were not more dear friends to enjoy
the abundance of the delicious and
delicate repast.
After dinner, crocmet, base ball,
quoits, etc., were enjoyed, and some
expert playing seemed to be in pro
cess of development, to say no more.
Just how long it would have taken
to fully develop it, however, your
correspondent is unable to say.
But when it came to washing the
dishes, it was" found that there had
been more practice, and the fair sis
ters showed that tin's was a game
they were tkillful in.
Mr. J. D. Ritchie and family, of
Akron, took their recreatiou with a
good grace. Mr. Ritchie now occu
p'eo his new grocery i store, 1060 South
Main st. His brother, J. H. Ritchie,
will bo with him.
One member who had attended
former reunions, who always did
much 'to make such occasion enjoya
ble for every one Aunt Emeline
Ritchie, loved by all, was not with
us today. Her death was mourned
by all. Uncle Alexander, her life
partner, was present.
When the sun was setting the com
pany dispersed, after some good
singing of familiar music.
A Mother Tells How She Saved Her Little
Daughter's Life.
I am the mother of eight children
and have had a great deal of exper
ience with medicines. .Last summer
my little daughter had the dysentery
in its worst form. We thought she
would die. I tried everything I could
think of, but nothing seemed to do
her any good. I saw by an adver
tisement in our paper that Chamber
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy was highly recommended
and sent and got a bottle at once. It
proved to be one ot the very best
medicines we ever had in the house.
It saved my little daughter's life. I
am anxious for every mother to know
what an excellent medicine it is.
Had I known it at first it would have
saved mo a great deal of anxiety aud
my- little daughter much suffering.

"You have saved my life, snatched
me from the briDk of the grave almost,
and I wish to thank you. About eigh
teen months ago I was a total wreck,
physically. I had been troubled with
leucorrhcea f orsome limei but had given
hardly any attention to the trouble.
"At last inflammation of the womb
and ovaries resulted and then I suf
fered agonies, had to give up my pro
fession (musician and piano player),
was confined to my bed and life became
a terrible cross. My husband sum
moned the best physicians, but their
benefit was but temporary at best. I
believe I should have contracted the
morphine habit under their care, If my
common sense had not intervened.
" One day my husband noticed the ad
vertisement of your remedies and im
mediately bought me a full trial. Soon
the pain in my ovaries was gone. lam
now well, strong and robust, walk,
ride a wheel, and feel like a girl in her
teens. I would not be without Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; it
is like water of life to me. I am very
gratefully and sincerely your well
wisher, and I heartily recommend your
remedies. I hope some poor creature
may be helped to health "by reading my
story." Mbs. Col. E. P. Ricbaudson,

Irvin Richards has a patch of pota
toes on the farm of Jacob Rudy and
in order to reach the field in the
shortest time he goes through the
woods of the Hiram Richards estate,
which brings him directly there.
Last week he drove a horse and
buggy through the woods and left
them there while lie went to pulling
weeas. wnen ne tinncrtooK to go
home he found the buggy wedged in
between two hickory saplings, and
as the horse had pulled hard to go
further on it was impossible' to get
the vehicle out without the aid of an
axe. Irve therefore unhitched
and went home without it,
intending the next morning
to release the vehicle, but when he
arnveaac tne spot lie couici nnd no
buggy to cut out. After a long
search he found it near a pond under
a big pile of brush. The boys in order
to cover it more easily, had smashed
down the top and ruined it. Rich
ards said not a word, thinking, that
'everything comes to one who waits','
until finally he heard of the trick
and traced it to three young men, one
of whom was hired to Irve's father,
and the others to Heckman and
Wolf, and now the boys must pay
the fiddler or go to jail.
Mr. Charles Palmer once rail a
threshing machine and manipulated
a traction engine aud as Will Raber
was short an engine, Charley very
kindly aerreed to co with him a day
or two until the proprietor could en
gage one.
On going down a steep hill from
John werstler's new farm the engi
neer lost his nerve and let the engine
run wild when it took to the aide of
tiie road and converted itself into a
steam plow," and the way the sod
flew was a revelation. It finally
knocked down Sam Rudy's fence and
got stranded among the rails. Pal
mer thought if he could only get the
thing on a rail fence he could make
himself famous as a rail road engi
neer but it wouldn't work Avbrth a
cent; but Charles has pluck without
sunt anu it woman 't surprise anyone
to see him on one of these days on
the top of his engine sailing along a
worm fence at the rate of a mile a
minute.
Troublesome to the Army.
During the civil war, as well as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea
was one of tho most troublesome dis
eases the army had to contend with.
In many instances it became chronic
and the old soldiers still suffer from
it. Mr. David Taylor of Wind
Ridge, Greene Co., Pa., is one of
these. He uses Chamberlain's Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and
says he never found anything that
would give him such quick relief. It

SAVES
The Farmers Money
Does the National Feeder
and Blower.
Improved Attachment For
Threshing Machine.
Does Away With Many Hands
Makes Threshing Easy.
Squire W. F. Coleman Is Sole
For a Big Territory.
Agent
The threshing machine in general
use among the farmers lias been
greatly improved upon recently.
A Demockat reporter while driv
ing east of Ghent, Bath township,
this week, came upon a group of
threshers, and was greatly surprised
to see the straw being stacked by an
apparatus managed by one man. It
is called the Wind Stacker, and does
the work of four men. Moreover, it
it is claimed that it stacks the straw
much jbetter than can be done by
hand. !
But the most surprising item in
the equipment was that tlse feeding
and band cutting was also done auto
matically. A National Feeder and Band Cut
ter is attached to the threshing ma
chine. This is a valuable and use
ful improvement to the machine.
The services of several men are
saved by this device, as no haiids
are needed to cut the bauds or feed
the machine. All that has to
be done is to put the sheaves into the
feeder and it does the rest. The
bands are cut and the sheaves fed to
the machine with great rapidity. It
keeps two men busy pitching the
sheaves. They are tossed into tho
feeder from both sides.
The only National Feeder that has
yet been introduced into Summit
county is owned by Colvenus Sny
der, who has resided in Ghent for 25
years.' He has had the feeder since
July 12, and pronounces it a com
plete success. He says that with the
iccUoc v-ho -cn throsli a tuUiul or
wheat in from 45 to 50 seconds,
averaging that amount for a day. On
a test he threshed 28 bushels
of oats in ten minutes.
As an example of the machine's
work he told what he had done for
Win. Shumaker, at Hawkins' Sta
tion. In two hours and a quarter he
turned out 508 bushels of oats. Oats,
however, can be threshed from 2)C to
Z4 times as fast as wheat.
A. Aicbariana, a me time resiaent
of Ghent, and who is considered one
of the best farmers in that vicinity,
in speaking of tho merits of the
Feeder, said: "I think it is a suc
cess and has come to stay. The ma
chine saves five hands for the farm
er; four men on the stack and one
baud cutter and ono feeder. The
stacking is done in much better
style and makes a better stack thea
men can make. The feeder works
fine and the work is done much fast
er than by the old way of feeding by
hand. It is impossible for a man to
put as much "rain through the ma
chine by hand as can be done by the
feeder."
The National Feeder was sold to
Mr. Snyder by Squire W. F.
Coleman of Wooster av., the com
pany's sole agent for Eastern Ohio
and Pennsylvania, who is one of the
bet known agricultural implement
salesmen In Northern Ohio. Next
year Squire Colejnan will handle
these machines and expects to do a
flourishing business, as it is sure to
revolutionize the threshing business.
Squire Coleman also handles the
National blower, manufactured by
the same firm.
The Ligonier, Ind., Banner speaks
very highly of a National Blower
and Feeder" whicli have just been in
troduced into its county.
Hundreds of the machines are be
ing put in use throughout the
country.

x. v. . .
Mr. and-Mrs. Jones had not spoken to
each other for tluoc whole days.
MY. .lone-, hail a InMy temper and,
though kind and gcnvruii- at Iie.irt. was
not always o considerate of his wife's
feeling- as lie miglit lie.
On ike contrary, Mrs. Jones was in
clined to what her husband called "the
sulks" if tilings didn't go to suit her.
After Mr. Jones had time for reflection
his better feelings gained the asccmldu-
. " .
not raising her eyes from her work
seeming to be aware of his presence.
On perceiving this Mr. Jones' irritable
feeling returned.
"Let her sulk it out!" was his inward
ejaculation.
So, turning the back of his chair to
hers, he read, or seemed to read, the vil
lage paper.
As will he readily believed, this did
uot mend matters much. Mrs. Jones be
came confirmed in the belief that she was
one of the most abused women in the
world and Mr. Jones that she was one of
the most unreasonable and provoking.
Thus the silence continued, both being
equally determined that they wouldn't
speak first.
V'e said equally,, but Mr. Jones was
the first to yield. On'the evening of the
third day he broke the silence by saying:
"It's no use for us to live together in
this way Ellen. 'Ye ought never to have
married, but it is useless to talk of that
now. The best thing we can do is to
separate."
"I have been thinking so myself." said
Mrs. Jones in steady tones, despite the
tumultuous beating of her heart, "though
I didn't like to be the first one to propose
it."
Perhaps Mr. Jones might have hoped
that his wife would have expressed some
dissatisfaction at this arrangement.
He continued in a more subdued tone:
"I shall', of course, give you a portion
of my salary, sufficient to pay your board
and clothe you. Will this arrangement
be satisfactory?"
"Perfectly."
it you preter to board, as l suppose
you will, you can have part of the furni
turel Isufficlenf nt least to furnish two
rooms."
"And the children?'
The mother's voice faltered as fahe said
this.
They had two'lovely children, dear and
precious to each parent's heart, and yet,
strange to say, Mr. Jones had not ouce
thought of them.
"I suppose we shall have to divide
them," he said in an altered voice, for
it was something for which ho was not
prepared. "Which wjll you take?"
There was a pause of some moments,
during which there was evidently quito
a struggle in the mother's heart.
"1 don't know; it's hard choosing. I
will let yon decide."
"It's hnrd for me, too," said the father,
with a sigh. "But we must consider
what is for heir best, good. Freddie is
a buy and will be "better-Tvitli" me. Kiuma
is the youngest and needs your care most.
I think you had belter take her."
"Let it be so then.''
As Mrs. Jones said this she glanced to
ward the crib, from which the boy's curly
head was just visible.
Xever did she realize until now how
dear he was.
Her husband followed the direction of
her eyes.
"Perhaps you think yon ought to have
both?"
"Oh, no," was the quick response; "it
is only light that yon should have one."
With their hearts softened by these
feelings, a word would have reconciled
them, hut that word was not spoken.
The nest morning Mrs. Jones com
menced her preparations and by night
was comfortably domiciled in her new
home.
Her rooms were pleasant, and yet she
found her new life indescribably sad and
lonely.
She missed her husband much moro
than she had expected. Many evidences
of his love and tenderness crowded upon
her mind now that she could experience
them no more, while little Emma s art- '
less inquiries as to "where papa was"
pierced her heart. t '
She also had much anxiety in regard to
Freddie. He had been subject to tho l
croup from a baby, requiring the utmost '
care on her part. How would it be now? j
At last her worst fears were realized. I
A dispatch reached her, with these words:
"Freddie is very ill. Come at once."
She went with all possible speed, but
only to witness his dying agonies.
As she bent, over his lifeless body this
agonizing reflection went like an arrow
through her heart:
"If I had not left him, he would not
hae died!"
Her husband was standing beside her.

When umbrellas first came into Blair
gowrie, Scotland, they weie sported only
by the miui-ter and the land and were
looked upon by tlie common class as per
fect phenomena. One day Daniel M.

Not long nfterward. however, to the

There's no door in l" my house that'll

It Game That C'mt Ocnn.J Doft.le
ilay a l-'jrlunp.
Not many years no a fanions whist
game was played at Sndbnry, Yt., two
of the sitters in being General Donble
dsy and Henry Dater of the well known
firm of Dater, Thompson & Co. It was
something like T or 1 0 cents a corner;
so yon see it was easy for a man to lose
as much as S1.90 in an afternoon. Play
began after the Sndbnry dinner hour,
half past 1, and lasted until teatime.
The old roosters became so wrapped up
in the game that nothing short of an
earthquake conld have disturbed them.
Brokers in New York could do nothing
to shake the interest.
The game was played at the timo of
the historic Hannibal and St. Joe cor
ner, engineered by Kennedy, Hutchin
son & Co., in the interest of their client,
John Duff of Boston. Donbleday was
selling the stock short through Van
Schaick & Co., and at a quarter to 2 on
the eventful day he received a telegram
from his brokers advising him of the
situation. The game was stopped just
long enough for him to read it and lay
it aside. In 20 minutes a second dis
patch arrived, was read and cast aside.
Donbleday was winning at the rate of
35 cents an hour. What did he care
about Hannibal and St. Joe? Later in
the afternoon a third summons came
from Van Schaick & Co., and at 5
o'clock a fourth. Then Donbleday arose
and remarked: 'Gentlemen, I have en
joyed the game. My Windings are ex
actly $1.65. I must say good afternoon,
as it is necessary for me to take the first
train "for New York. " The next morn
ing his brokers informed him that he
could settle for $100,000. At thetime
the first telegram was sent he could
have settled for 2r,000, at the time of
tl.o o.m1 foi- vSfUJOO. tha third for.
