_§_....... | BOARD OF TRADE FOR GREEN-
VILLE.
Semanal
Epitor Reriector :"QOnly a few
days ugo the writer heard a discussion
concerning the town of Greenville. A
very intelligent man remarked that
while the people of Greenville were
plucky and energetic and the town
generally was famous, it was a wonder:
and an astonishment to the business
world that with the means and men"
young, active, hard working, pushing
men-there wasmot a first class Board
of. Trade in the town. A medium
through which the business world could
make any inquiry concerning the dif-
ferent vocations or business, and in fact
everything that a man should want to
inquire about a town and community.
There aré active. ~energetic, intelligent
young business men in Greenville who
would take pleasure in looking after
and letting the world know what res
sources, advantages and inducements
Greenville and vicinity offer to bring
capital aud brains to invest here. © This
gentleman remarked, it was the only
town in the State of any advantages
that did not have a Board of Trade.
Will not the business men take im-
mediate steps to organize a Board of
Trade, that we may get the great bene-
fits to be derived therefrom ? Doubt-
less many do not know what it means
but they would soon familiarize them-
selves and feel the great good that will
accrue. Now is the time to start.
Will you not have some one call a
meeting and make the eftort ?

oo* OLD FASHIONS IN FUNERALS.
~\A ready made coffin. is a thing I
never saw until I was agrown man,�
said the reminiscent person, who is
not so very old either. ~I was
brought up in a small village in Ver-
mont, where.a broadcloth coffin with
silver trimmings would have creat-
ed as much wonder and speculation
as acablecar. If such a coffin had
strayed into the neighborhood, it
would doubtless have been placed
upright in some oneTs best room and
been used as a cabinet for choice
bits of china, its funereal purpose
| remaining undreamed of.
oBach farmer saved from his cut-
ting of timber..a few of the finest
poards. Especial attention was giv-
en to the seasoning and finish, and
they were then stored away until
the time when they should be need-
ed. There wasalways rivalry among
the neighbors as to who had the fin-
est coffin boardsin his loft. They
would no more think of using the
coffin boards for any other purpose
than. they, would of wearing the
pay Sa had been put away in
the oédar ~ehest for them to be laid
out in. *
oOwing to the uncertainty as to
the time when they might be called
for, nothing more could be done to-
have the ~boards ready. Men-were
too thifty in those days to run any
risk of, making up a coffin and then
having ita misfit, and it was gener;
ally condeded that a man's last oon-
verkation with the minister shonld
not be accompanied by the unmis-
takable sound of hammering from
the barn. So the coffin making had to
be left until all was over. When my
greatunole died, I remember, father
and my elder brothers staid up all
nightmaking hiscoffm. §= =
oWho did the laying out? ~Ob,
there was at least one woman in the
Village who was first class at that
sort of thing"generally a tailoress
or seamstress"and was always on
hand. She took right hold and did
everything"made the shroud, gave
advice about the latest style in
mourning, saw the callers if she was
allowed to, Generally the family
took a mournful pleasure in per-
forming that duty themselves. This
self appointed undertaker never ex-
any remuneration for ber
services, though she didnTt object if
after next shearing you sent around
enough wool for a new dress, pro-
vided you were perfectly able to do
go.
~No, the shroud wasnTt of home-
spun linen. That was one time
when a man was allowed to wear
~storeolothes,T though all his life he
had worn homespun, linsey wooleey
shirts, home woven natural gray
trousers and cowhide boots made by
the traveling cobbler. He was buried
in a white shroud of the finest mus-
lin which: his means, afforded and
the village store could furnish:
There was nothing brief about the
remarks of the minister. . The serv-
joe usually took a good two hours;
