The Nehawka Department The Nehawka department of the Journal which has been published on the first of the week that is Mon day! will be in the future published on Thursday, thus allowing those who desire to get their news and advertising for the week in so it an be has that week and also making it more Convenient for the publishers. Seme of our friends say that as we were fortunate in always finding a storm on Friday and last year and that now the storms have been com ing the first of the week was the reason we changed the time of com ing, are we fear mistaken, for we are endeavoring to come whether the weather ba fair or foul.

R. Du Clos. this not a strange matter, but there were five bachelors on the job, besides Mr. James Miller, for just next is the house of Morris Pollard, which he "Pete"' Johnson and Wm. Obernaylte were plastering. With these f-ve bachelors snd three of them just having built or are build ing a house, it looks like there might be an opportunity lor a number of the ladies who are still enjoying sin gle blessedness of securing a happy home. Just who five bachelors should be working in one bunch and three of them have homes now of their own, when the command is to marry and replenish the earth, we do not understand. However, we guess It is all right.

TEE EEEEAVED MOTHER Beside her cottage gate she stood, A- woman sad and gray, Watching the children gathering flowers For Decoration day. She beckoned to them, and they came In haste across the way. With garlands of wood violets, And honeysuckles gay. "Your flowers are very beautiful," She said with kindly praise; "Would you not like some lilac f blooms, To put in jour boqutts?" She opened the crate to let them in, The merry littie group. And rented them all, side by side. Upon the cottage etaop. Then irom the lilac's flowery shrub T-he plucked its odorous store, ;;nd piled them in the eager hands Till they could hold no more; Viiile with a sad, sweet smile she watched The little ores, as they Arranged the fragrant purpla plumes To crown each bright boquet. "And did you have some soldier beys?" lai"--"ed one little lad. "Yes, I had tv'o as noble boys Ar e'er a mother had Two handsome, brave and stal wart youths, Who, to their ccr.nt.ry true, Exchanged the farmer's humble garb For suits of Unicn blue. "The scene is fresh within my mind, J As if but yesterday; jWhen with Rhode Ie land's gallant sens I saw them rrsrch t.vay. And as the weary months went ty, How lonely seemed our home. As daily at the throne of grace, I prayed that peace might come. "Hut still the dreadful rtrife v.e nt on; Our nation writhed in pain, A- brothers mingled blood with blood On many a battle plain. Then came two days with sorrow fraught. The' haunt mv memory still When" Willie fell at Gettysburg, Ar.d James at Maivern Hill. "These poor dim eyes may ne'er behold The graves where now they plee-p; But then I knew God's pitying eye O'er them its watch will keep. And when shall sound the judgment trump. Loud pealing frcm the skies; j Urieht-robed, with immortality, ;iy icvea ones snai: arise. Those noble brows, ence battle scarred. Shall bshr no Crimean stain: With Christ their King shall reis;n. ThFii. !n their sweet companionship, ril'walk fair Eden's shore; Wh.re .war'syild .scenes shall be. unknown.
