Parrish of Grand Rapids for a contribution to tin's num- ber of the Jbw'natr lie kindly sent ns the fol- lowing, adding this note of explanation : “When I received your letter I had in my hands an old book published in 1770, one hun- dred years ago, in London, which is a diary of events which transpired in, England and in America, with reference to the American Rev- olution as viewed in London, at that'time from day to day. I send you a poem, taken from it, which was read at a sort of festival hold iu London, on the 1st day of January, 1770, en- titled ‘America.’ It seemed that Tucker, at that time Dean of Gloucester, had inventodja pin which attached horses to' carriages and which could be removed by the driver in case of aq- eidenta and the horses allowed to escape, thus avoiding any injury to the occupants of the carriage, This was compared to the letting loose of the rebels in America in the follow- ing stanza?. “Crowned be the man with lasting praise Who first contrived the pin, To loose mad horses from the chai se Ami save the nock within. Sec how they prance and bound and skip And all control disdain— They bid defiance to the whip And tear the silken rein. Awhile we try if art or strength Are able to prevail; But hppelcsSj when we find at length That all onr efforts fail. With ready foofc'thc spring we press- Ontjnmps the mngic plug, When disengaged from ail distress, We sit quite safe and snug. The pampered steeds their, freedom gained, Run off full speed together, But have no plan ascertained They run they know not whither. Bots who love mischief and a course, Enjoying the disaster, Bawl “8 top ’em 1 stop 'em !” till tliey’cr hoarse, But mean to drive them faster. Each, claiming now liis natural right, Scorns to obey liis brother— So they proceed to kick and bite Ami worry one another. Hungry at last, and blind and lame Bleeding at nose ami eyes, By suffering grown extremely tame And, by experience wise. With bellies full of liberty ^ But void of oats and hay,* They both sneak back, their folly see, And run no more away.” The Recovered Treasure. “Must you go out again, dearest?” Helen Tracey’s 'wistful blue eyes were lifted to her husband’s face as he came into the sitting room with his overcoat on.

She was fair as a lily, with hair of bright, rippled gold, and a large, violet-dark eyes—such a one as you might fancy Saxon llowena to have been, in short. “Yes, but I shall soon be home, Nell,: so don’t worry yourself about me. Harry is asleep, I see.” As he spoke he glanced, towards a velvet-cushioned sofa, where a beauti- ful child of scarcely three summers, lay nestling in the flushed, lovely sleep of infancy,, with his dark curls thrown back from the dimpled cheeks and: one hand underneath the head. “Yes; ho lias been In the garden all the afternoon, and fell asleep al- most the minute his nurse brought him in.” Dr. Tracey stood a moment looking down upon the child. “How pretty he grows. Ah, Nel- ly, we have the most precious treas • urc Heaven ever gave to His children In this boy.” Mrs. Tracey’s lips quivered—the dewy shadow crept iuto her eyes. “Oh, Henry, if I only had my lit- tle Bertha, too!” “Still brooding on your lost one, Helen? My dearest, I had hoped that time was healing up that wound in your breast. Is it wise, is it dis- creet, tlius to forget the bounties Heaven has given you in the one gift He has withdrawn ?” “If I could only he certain that she was indeed lost, Henry,” sobbed the fair-haired woman. “If I could have planted daisies above her grave, and counted her growing years in Heaven—hut I cannot. ‘ She may he in want—she may be ill or suffering, and I so powerless to aid her.” “There can be no doubt that she is dead, Helen,” soothed the husband. “ Were it otherwise, your brother-in- law would long since have communi- cated with you.” “If I could only believe it—if I could ease this aching at my heart,” reiterated Helen. “Do not think me ungrateful, Henry, hut indeed, I can- not forget my little lost Bertha.” At this moment Harry sat up on the sofa, loudly claiming his mother’s attention ; and Dr. Tracey went away with the pleasant recollection that Helen was smiling hack to her hoy’s smiles. Ah! where was there ever magnetism like the touch of a child’s hand to soothe the ache o f, heart or head? The flaming crimson belt of the late sunset glowed suddenly above the leafless October woods ; the tall trees that skirted the lonely road on either side: seemed to stand like gaunt senti- nels. Dr. Tracy buttoned his over- coat one or two buttons higher as he drove along the solitary highway, and felt the raw, piercing chill of the even- ing air ; and all the time he was think- ing of Helen’s words. She was a widow when he married her, this fair.Saxon beauty;—a widow : whom the death of her handsome for- eign swindler of a husband had set free from a bondage almost worse than slavery. Francesco Petroni died; but Paolo, Petroni, his brother, -lived, a dark, designing man. - Bertha, their infant child, had been> -consigned, :hy Francesco’s desire, toi his;hrotlier’s: care,- ,during.;the .illness' that,„proYed fatal to him; . All .the "widowV subsequent efforts to regain possession of her little one were futile. “ My dear sister-in-law,” said the Italian to her one day, when her ap- peals and entreaties had been most persistent, “there is one way, and but one way, for you to receive hack Bertha.” “And that is—” “ To receive me also—as your bus- band!” Paolo Petroni never forgot nor for- gave the recoiling movement, the look of horror with which the English wid- ow received his unwelcome proposal. “You will compel him to give my little one to me, Henry,” the poor young mother had said, on the day that made her for the second, time a wife. .But when Henry Tralcy, arm- ed with all the force of the law, Went to Milan to demand possession of his little step-daugliter, lo ! Paolo; Pe- troui had utterly disappeared, and Bertha with him. Search, inquiry; investigation, proved equally vain ; and from that day to this—a period of full six years —neither Dr. Tracy nor liis wife had ever heard one word of the little Italian infant whoso smile had been the first gleam of light that had fallen across the troubled tide of Helen Pctroui’s foreign life. It was one of those strange, inex- plicable. romances of real life that we sometimes encounter amid the most prosaic and commonplace surround- ings, and supplied Dr, Tracy With ample materials for thought as he drovo through the wild and desolate part of the country. “Not a particularly pleasant spot this at twilight,” soliloquized the doc- tor, leaning forward to catch a glimpse of a single ray of yellow light that Streamed from the window of a cot- tage a few rods further on. “They’ve lighted their candles, I see, and its high time they did, too.” He sprung from his phaeton and entered the cottage without knocking. It presented no very inviting scene. A ruinous floor, treacherous and un- certain to the unwary footstep; walls where masses of plaster had fallen away, leaving the rough laths expos- ed ; and a fire-place where a few damp logs sputtered and smoked, and did everything but blaze up cheerfully. A hard featured old crone, who was dozing on a stool by the hearth, start- ed up, and began to curtsey as the doctor entered. “ "Well, Mrs. Hopper, and how is the patient ?” “ Quiet, sir—quiet, quiet.” “And the child ?” “As peaceful as a lamb, bless its little heart !" Dr. Tracy took up the candle and strode across the room, to a low bed- stead in the most distant corner, where a human figure was dimly outlined beneath a torn and tattered counter- pane. Close beside it, with a shower of fleecy, flaxen ringlets mingled with the black, disheveled locks of the prostrate woman, nestled a child who looked up into the doctor’s eyes as he approached, with innocent, Wondering looks, “I gave her the drops at four o’clock, and she hain’t made no fuss since. I wouldn’t disturb her, ’cause there’s nothing so refreshing for sick folks as sleep,” whined the old wo- man. “ Sleep !” echoed Dr. Tracy, bend- my ing to examine the aver ted face; good soul, she’s dead !” “Dead!” shrieked the woman, rushing across the floor-^dear! Come away, child, quick.” The little creaturo slid to the ground with a composure strangely at vari- ance with her age, and stood alter- nately eyeing her two companions. “I hope, doctor, you’ll see I don’t lose nothin’ by the expense I ’ve been to;” whined Mrs. Hopper. “I ’m a lone widow woman, and—” “A\.nd the biggest harper in the country!” added Dr. Tracy; “I ‘ knew that when I had this poor crea- ture brought here when I found her dying by the roadside the night be- fore last, but I couldn’t very well help myself. Don’t be alarmed, Mrs. Hopper, you shall not he a sufferer! But about this little girl, I really don’t know what to do.” He hesitated an instant, mechani- cally smoothing the fleecy yellow curls of the little girl.. “I suppose,” he said, nodding to- ward the bed, “slio left no money nor valuables of any kind ?” “Not a bit of it, sir, for—■” But the child stepped forward, a fragile bit of a thing, but erect and resolute. ' - “What did you do with that little; bag you took off Nurse Nina’s.neck?”: she asked,. : “Bag?” stammered the confound-; ed woman. “Yes, you took it off her neck last; night when you thought ! was asleep.”! “The child is dreaming;” said Mrs.- Hopper, turning red and white. “But I do not think • she is,” said*, the doctor, quietly but firmly, “ Give: her the bag, Mrs, Hopper,” ■=| “I never seen no bag, as sure as I live and breathe !” asserted the wo- man ; hut Dr. Tracy’s quick "eye foil lowed the direetion-of her wandering, glance. He stepped across the room and removed the cushion of the stool; beneath it’ lay a small leathern bag drawn up by a tarnished gilt' cord, i “That is my bag,” said the child, holding out her small hand. “Yes; but had I not better keep it • for you ? And, little one, perhaps I shall take you homo with me to-night'. It is not well that you should stay in: the house with death.” “Iam not afraid of death, I sawc uncle Paolo die.” .

Dr. Tracy opened the little leath- ern bag ; it contained a Yellow letter, worn through all its edges, and signed “Helen Petroni,” a slender chain of gold and a tiny ring Set with tur- quoises. He-closed it again, feeling like one.who has unexpectedly en- countered some rare, long lost treas- ure. “Come, little Bertha, I shall take you home with me,” lie said, rising. She put her hand in his with a sim- ple trust that brought the Involuntary tears to his eyes, and then drove away, leaving Mrs Hopper muttering- and groaning on the threshold, “Child,” lie said, breaking the long, oppressive silence, when they were about half way home, “you are an orphan ?” “Yes;” said little Bertha, simply. “Do you remember nothing of your mamma?” “Mamma,” repeated the child, vaguely.- “My mamma—no; I never had a mamma.” •‘Wouldn’t you like to have one?” “I —don’t—know,” hesitated Ber- tha, “I don’t know how it would seem to have one.” It was intensely daidc when they drove up to the doctor’s house, but- the lights shone like cheerful beacons,, and Helen was in the hall to greet him. “My love,” he said, standing on the threshold, “I have brought you a little daughter to love and cherish— aomo qne to fill the lost Bertha’s place.” As lie led the fair haired .child for- ward, Helen gazed wildly at her for a moment, and then hurst into a wild, glad cry. “Bertha, my-own little Bertha!” The mother’s instinct had triumph- ed over all these long, long years of separation; and in the tender em- brace that enfolded her tiny form, poor little Bertha Petroni first learned “how it would seem” to have a moth- er.

A Boston paper thus describes the meeting of a grocer’’s creditors: There were no assets; there was not the re- motest chance of a dividend, What ■\yere the creditors to do with this Wretched, individual? A t all events they were determined to have some- thing; and one of their numberj ei- ther previously aware of the bank- rupt’s lyrical attainments or moved by a Shaksperian intuition of the debtor having a “single face,” asked him if he could not cheer the droop- ing spirits of those to whom he stood indebted by warbling some ditty. The penniless yet tuneful bankrupt ex- pressed his: willingness to oblige, and in tremulous accents piped forth the tender ballad of “Then you’ll remem- ber me.” The scene was as pathetic as it was original. on it, numbered to correspond with the paper, and presenting the bottle to the venerable roysterer, remarked, in the most business like way imagin- able: “A dollar and a half, sir.” “A dollar and a half !” gasped his astonished customer. “Ain’t that pretty high, mister?” “It’s our price—a dollar for the prescription and fifty cents for the medicine.” “Yes, well,” slowly replied, the wicked old duller, as he slowly but- toned up the,half pint in his overcoat pocket; “I guess, boss, that I don’t want the ’scription. Here’s your half a dollar;” and he stuck his tongue in one side of his mouth, winked iron- ically at him of the mortar and pestle, and walked out.— Worcester Press. The terms rich and poor are rela- tive, not absolute. There is, perhaps, a level of absolute poverty, away down where the necessities of life are not; but we doubt Very much wheth- er there is anywhere a level of abso- lute wealth. Our ideas of whether a man is rich or poor are based on the amount ot property or income at his disposal. ® Society has fixed an artifi- cial scale by which wealth and pover- ty are determined, and a varying level above which a man is said to be rich, and below which he is called poor. This is convenient for; others, hut it has little to do with determin- ing the condition of the individual, I f we would know whether he is rich or poor, we must go deeper- than this, and take as the basis of our reckoning a principal which this artificial scale merely recognizes. The fact that oven this arbitrary scale lias no fixed level, that its zero is ever varying, higher in one genera- tion and lower in another, up in one locality and down iu another, suggests thq true basis from which to reckon, wealth and poverty. - The rich man of the last century and the rich man of to-day have very different hank accounts. Tried by the scale of the former, the wealth of the latter would seem tremendous;, and yet he is not correspondingly richer. The man, who is rich in a country town might not he considered comfortable in New York,; and. yet the rich man,of New. York is not necessarily richer. The requirements of, the present are more expensive:than those of the last cen- tury; and a residence in New York entails far greater expenditure than a residence iu Jenkinsville. Nor are these differences in men’s requirements always determined.by time or place. People’s tastes are different. An income which would make one person rich, might be hut a beggarly pittance to another. The wants of a man whose tastes are sim- q>le- and unostentatious,- may . be as fully supplied by a moderate salary as those of a Ralston by a princely income; The difference between the rich and the poor consists not so-much ;in the difference of their incomes, as in the different relation which;-these incomes bear to their respective wants, in whether :or not they meet-and sat - isfy' their aspirations and . desir.es. YVhat .men call wealth is determined; by the amount of property that a man has at-. his- command; but-- what is wealth to the possessor is the con-; tentment and satisfaction which it; brings him. Who; then, are the rich? Certainly not always -they of-large.estate; There: are, in many so-called wealthy people; longings! for, ■ something.. still beyond their means, which makes them poor' indeed.

A t one time he., amused-, himself in his harem for days aVa time, then went to building. palace's, then passed agreeable hours in, count- ing over his gold. A t one time he took it into his head to have some wild beasts, and wanted some tigers. Agents were sent off at once. Fearing to cause his Majesty some discontent, they sent off emissaries in every di- rection, . with the orders to purchase without delay, and the result was tho arrival of fifty superb tigers at about the same time. But no sooner had they arrived than the . Sultan conclu- ded that lions were better suited: to his palaces; the tigers -.were' exiled into Asia,, and the; agents were once more sent out to purchase lions. Fifty of these beasts arrived at the.same time, hut after looking at them two or three times his Majesty took a fancy for parrots. As soon as this was known all the ..merchants in Constan- tinople ordered parrots, , and iq.the end the city was filled with'’them. The cargoes that arrived too late were sold, in the shops— -over 100,000 of them. I t Was the Minister- of Finance who had to pay, the bill for’ all these' fancies, and this yyill, show why Tur- key is bankrupt. All this' t-ime the Sultan was piling up his’ private boards. . Newspapers in 1776. ’. < - There were no daily newspapers in the time of the' Revolution, .Edwarjfl Abbot tells us. Of some fifty papers' which were born and lived, or died between 1748 and 17S3, all were week- lies Or ' semi-weeklies. There, were forty-three such at the end of the war . They were, poof affairs, viewed in the light of the journalism of today, -hut measured by their, .times, displayed considerable enterprise and exerted an immense influence. . It was their characteristic .that they aimed: not so, much to print the;news of'the locali- ty in which-they: were published’as to bring-to that locality news from dis- tant parts of the country and of the world. In fact, the newspapers of the Revolution, had. very, little to do with news of any kind.4’ The gathering’of it had hot been reduced to a-system. The publisher, was his own editor, and reporter. There were not. telegraph tolls to pay, and if there ha',d been ?here would have been h a money/.with which to-‘pay them. -News traveled to* the paper 'by private ^conveyance. •Itvwas two - months.' coming1. from Great Britian', -and-six;-' months -from •Constantinople.' v|That useful:-; and widely known individual; “auigentle- man. of undoubted -veracity,”:tlived, ; however, in the country 'at that-Iime,! andvendered-vSluable' services^ 'The papers were'filled with-Apolitical say- ings', ‘ satires; and lampoons.- - By_ many of them the largest liberty'was allowed; and -there: was noteceahlo tendencies tovthe Jreests‘.sortJofrispec-.j ulatiop.v.Of -journalism in the modern; sense of the word — elaborate} enter-; prising, ^competitive, lavish, of outlay; and presenting-a-field 101 ' the.highest attainments- and.; - the most; carefully accquired professional * skill — there was ahsolutely:!nothing;- j.-And yet we ,must . accord, to^^he. journals of: the Re,volution, small, regular,'struggling sheets that they were; 'tfie' eredit of* a general herojc spirit, arid a very nojjle achievement’in. shaping the* patriotic temper "of-the* times ... . • f*Or —r * - " - f A -‘ ■ ^ 1 To -wash,1 -flannels’ -rwithout . their Management of “Help.” At a recent meeting of the alu- minus club of the agricultural collego, Prof. Gully spoke on the manage- ment of hired help. He said there are two requisites : first you need the right kind of men as managers, and secondly you need the right kind of employes. Some men always have trouble with their help, while others get along with everybody. In gener- al, the nearer help approaches to a mere machine, it is practically the most Valuable. Educated help would ho better, providing they would he content to do their work well for the wages paid. Ho gave a detailed de- scription of the management of help on his fai-m at Dearborn, and also of the way in which Ferry’s seed farm is managed. Prof. Gulley boarded his hands and worked them from day- light to dark, giving them one hour of nooning. He showed them no re- sponsibility, but gave them directions for doing everything. The help in both his and Ferry’s employ are Germans. ; A Simple Barometer. At Lafayette Park Police Station, ■Mo., is a peculiar barometer which never tells a lie. There, is a jar, with -a little water and a fewstones at the bottom. On a little wooden ladder running into the water is perched a Specimen- of the genus hyla, or tree- toad. When it is going to-be fair weather thafloa'd roosts, on the top round of the ladder, solemnly blink- ing the hours away. From twelve to fifteen, hours before a change to bad weather, “the General,’’ as they call him, begins to climb down, and hours before a storm sets in ho squats him- self on-the. stone with his head just .above the surface of the water. If -the weather be changeable, the toad goes up and down that ladder like a scared middy. * .'

Too Much Trees. to protest against the Allow me practice so common in both city and country, of setting out young trees near the house. In a short time they completely shade and almost cover the house, causing it to decay, spoil- ing the paint, and rendering it damp and unhealthy—in ‘fact, unfit to live in. This practice is so common as scarcely to attract attention. The Norway Spruce is much used for this purpose. In favorable localities, in the Alps, it grows*to the height of 150 feet. They render the Black Forest of Germany as black as night. They throw a gloom around dwell- ings, are never planted ,near Europe- an houses. In fact, Europeans never have their houses surrounded with denge shade, Where a house is too much Bhaded, the only remedy is to cut away a part of the trees, however unpleasant this may be, and In future use more com- mon sense when planting trees around dwellings. Evergreens and decidu- ous trees t may be planted on on the north and west sides of the house, closer than on the south and east. To these two side from a distance will answer much better. If wo wish to enjoy good health, it is necessary to have God’s glorious sun- shine in the house, regulating it-ac- cording to the season and circum- stances, with blinds and shutters. It is in much better taste to cultivate shrubs and flowers close to the house, and these will not grow in dense shade, while a light shade is not in- jurous.—T>. O. Richmond, in Ohio Parmer. A Cleaning Fluid. ‘Mother” sends to the Chicago Trihme the following letter : “I send you an excellent recipe for a cleaning fluid. I have used it to -wash alpaca, camel’s-hair, and other woolen goods, and find it invaluable for removing marks that little hands have made on furniture, carpets,rags, .etc. : Four oz. ammonia; 4 oz. white castilo soap ; 2 oz. alcohol; 2 oz. glyc- erine ; 2 oz. ether. Cut the soap fine; dissolve in 1 quart of water over the fire; add 4 cents water. When near- ly cold add the other ingredients. This will make nearly 8 quarts, and cost about 75 quarts to make it. It must be kept in a bottle and stopper- ed tight. It will keep good any length of time. When I wash dress goods I take a pail of lukewarm, water, and put in about a teacupful of the fluid, shake around well in this, and then rinse in plenty of clean water, and iron on wrong side while damp. For washing grease from coat collars, etc., I merely take a little of the fluid in a cup of water, apply with a clean rag. I t will make every- woolen look bright and fresh.” Foil Evil. Cut the affected part out, always keeping in view that the incision must be with the grain of the flesh, so that no arteries he cut off; then you have only a flesh wound to*heal. There are many things that will cleanse the wound and heal the sore. Take man- drake root, washed clean and boiled down to a strong solution, bathing two or. three times per day. .Another is crocus martis, 1 drachm; white vitrol, 1 ounce ; thoroughly mixed. TJsc one table spoonful to & quart- of soft water. This is also one of the best of solutions for the human flesh in any-form, where there is any flammation. in- To Mother Motherless Animals. Rub the palm of the hand full of gin on the nose and mouth of the dam; rub a little of tho same bottle along the back, of the young animal to he adopted; place them together, and the relationship is complete. The advantage of this simple process -will be complete to those who have to do with long wooled sheep, where, 'as is frequently the case, a ewe dies, leaves a pair of fine lambs, ’ while 'jpr'ohahly another ewe loses her lambs, when ex- change of maternal affection is instant- ly brought about by gin, to the saving and successful rearing of what other- wise,:would he-two troublesome pets at best. When a ewe has three lambs and another ewe- one, tho disparity can be effectually remedied in the same manner. - woman ]|@gBalza¥ said,: “The -*jvho'^wee;ps'.in life presence of her.lovf er’is no longer her own ke'eper.” *- u “ ^ «. 1 * i;* - j *•’ * 4 ^ *' 1 i ' i. v •* ' 7^ . i<;Tnr broiling^ a" beefsteak; whenever -the cojils blaze, up.from, the drippings, a pinch .of salt’ .throw'Nupoii ’them’will ;atpnco extinguish ^thenfi^ By care- ..fully^'fattending/'to,'this* m atter,you -mayyiiaye, y oiir broiled steak orr chick- • eri“ Crisp, hut hot¥corche.d,jand' juicy, -yetiwelLdone.'F"----- - --------- Jan' ‘affection--. •whpE . resided' at’ ate motllerffto Ker'.soh,;*whp> a little distancKffahd ^expected in a 5 short.time lie nmrriqd7:'“you are aet- .iri 'rnthpr-t 1i irff’ , ‘‘Y Gs,’’mother, he wMnfrhomeVexf. .

and clear brown eyes, and the pleas­antest of smiling mouths; but Helen’s face had a something in its blonde, oval beauty, that reminded you of the hunted fawn or the wild, bird stricken down by the sportsman’s shot. She was fair as a lily, with hair of bright, rippled gold, and a large, violet-dark eyes—such a one as you might fancy Saxon llowena to have been, in short.

“Yes, but I shall soon be home, Nell,: so don’t worry yourself about me. Harry is asleep, I see.”

As he spoke he glanced, towards a velvet-cushioned sofa, where a beauti­ful child of scarcely three summers, lay nestling in the flushed, lovely sleep of infancy,, with his dark curls thrown back from the dimpled cheeks and: one hand underneath the head.

“Yes; ho lias been In the garden all the afternoon, and fell asleep al­most the minute his nurse brought him in.”

Dr. Tracey stood a moment looking down upon the child.

“ How pretty he grows. Ah, Nel­ly, we have the most precious treas • urc Heaven ever gave to His children In this boy.”

Mrs. Tracey’s lips quivered—the dewy shadow crept iuto her eyes.

“ Oh, Henry, if I only had my lit­tle Bertha, too !”

“Still brooding on your lost one, Helen? My dearest, I had hoped that time was healing up that wound in your breast. Is it wise, is it dis­creet, tlius to forget the bounties Heaven has given you in the one gift He has withdrawn ?”

“I f I could only he certain that she was indeed lost, Henry,” sobbed the fair-haired woman. “I f I could have planted daisies above her grave, and counted her growing years in Heaven—hut I cannot. ‘ She may he in want—she may be ill or suffering, and I so powerless to aid her.”

“There can be no doubt that she is dead, Helen,” soothed the husband. “ Were it otherwise, your brother-in- law would long since have communi­cated with you.”

“I f I could only believe it—if I could ease this aching at my heart,” reiterated Helen. “Do not think me ungrateful, Henry, hut indeed, I can­not forget my little lost Bertha.”

At this moment Harry sat up on the sofa, loudly claiming his mother’s attention ; and Dr. Tracey went away with the pleasant recollection that Helen was smiling hack to her hoy’s smiles. A h ! where was there ever magnetism like the touch of a child’s hand to soothe the ache o f , heart or head?

The flaming crimson belt of the late sunset glowed suddenly above the leafless October woods ; the tall trees that skirted the lonely road on either side: seemed to stand like gaunt senti­nels. Dr. Tracy buttoned his over­coat one or two buttons higher as he drove along the solitary highway, and felt the raw, piercing chill of the even­ing air ; and all the time he was think­ing of Helen’s words.

She was a widow when he married her, this fair.Saxon beauty;—a widow

: whom the death of her handsome for- ■ eign swindler of a husband had set free from a bondage almost worse than slavery. Francesco Petroni died; but Paolo, Petroni, his brother, -lived, a dark, designing man.

- Bertha, their infant child, had been> -consigned, :hy Francesco’s desire, toi his;hrotlier’s: care,- ,during.;the .illness' that,„proYed fatal to him; . All .the

"widowV subsequent efforts to regain

possession of her little one were futile.“ My dear sister-in-law,” said the

Italian to her one day, when her ap­peals and entreaties had been most persistent, “ there is one way, and but one way, for you to receive hack Bertha.”

“And that is—”“ To receive me also—as your bus-

band!”Paolo Petroni never forgot nor for­

gave the recoiling movement, the look of horror with which the English wid­ow received his unwelcome proposal.

“You will compel him to give my little one to me, Henry,” the poor young mother had said, on the day that made her for the second, time a wife. .But when Henry Tralcy, arm­ed with all the force of the law, Went to Milan to demand possession of his little step-daugliter, lo ! Paolo; Pe- troui had utterly disappeared, and Bertha with him.

Search, inquiry; investigation, proved equally vain ; and from that day to this—a period of full six years —neither Dr. Tracy nor liis wife had ever heard one word of the little Italian infant whoso smile had been the first gleam of light that had fallen across the troubled tide of Helen Pctroui’s foreign life.

I t was one of those strange, inex­plicable. romances of real life that we sometimes encounter amid the most prosaic and commonplace surround­ings, and supplied Dr, Tracy With ample materials for thought as he drovo through the wild and desolate part of the country.

“Not a particularly pleasant spot this at twilight,” soliloquized the doc­tor, leaning forward to catch a glimpse of a single ray of yellow light that Streamed from the window of a cot­tage a few rods further on. “ They’ve lighted their candles, I see, and its high time they did, too.”

He sprung from his phaeton and entered the cottage without knocking.

I t presented no very inviting scene. A ruinous floor, treacherous and un­certain to the unwary footstep; walls where masses of plaster had fallen away, leaving the rough laths expos­ed ; and a fire-place where a few damp logs sputtered and smoked, and did everything but blaze up cheerfully. A hard featured old crone, who was dozing on a stool by the hearth, start­ed up, and began to curtsey as the doctor entered.

■“"Well, Mrs. Hopper, and how is the patient ?”

“ Quiet, sir—quiet, quiet.”“And the child ?”“As peaceful as a lamb, bless its

little heart !"Dr. Tracy took up the candle and

strode across the room, to a low bed­stead in the most distant corner, where a human figure was dimly outlined beneath a torn and tattered counter­pane. Close beside it, with a shower of fleecy, flaxen ringlets mingled with the black, disheveled locks of the prostrate woman, nestled a child who looked up into the doctor’s eyes as he approached, with innocent, Wondering looks,

“I gave her the drops at four o’clock, and she hain’t made no fuss since. I wouldn’t disturb her, ’cause there’s nothing so refreshing for sick folks as sleep,” whined the old wo­man.

“ Sleep !” echoed Dr. Tracy, bend-mying to examine the aver ted face;

good soul, she’s dead !”“ Dead!” shrieked the woman,

rushing across the floor-^dear! Come away, child, quick.”

The little creaturo slid to the ground with a composure strangely at vari­ance with her age, and stood alter­nately eyeing her two companions.

“I hope, doctor, you’ll see I don’t lose nothin’ by the expense I ’ve been to ;” whined Mrs. Hopper. “I ’m a lone widow woman, and—”

“A\.nd the biggest harper in the country!” added Dr. Tracy; “I ‘ knew that when I had this poor crea­ture brought here when I found her dying by the roadside the night be­fore last, but I couldn’t very well help myself. Don’t be alarmed, Mrs. Hopper, you shall not he a sufferer! But about this little girl, I really don’t know what to do.”

He hesitated an instant, mechani­cally smoothing the fleecy yellow curls of the little girl..

“I suppose,” he said, nodding to­ward the bed, “slio left no money nor valuables of any kind ?”

“Not a bit of it, sir, for—■”But the child stepped forward, a

fragile bit of a thing, but erect and resolute. ' -

“What did you do with that little; bag you took off Nurse Nina’s.neck?” : she asked,. :

“Bag?” stammered the confound-; ed woman. ■

“Yes, you took it off her neck last; night when you thought ! was asleep.”!

“The child is dreaming;” said Mrs.- Hopper, turning red and white.

“But I do not think • she is,” said*, the doctor, quietly but firmly, “ Give: her the bag, Mrs, Hopper,” ■ ■= |

“I never seen no bag, as sure as I live and breathe !” asserted the wo­man ; hut Dr. Tracy’s quick "eye foil lowed the direetion-of her wandering, glance. He stepped across the room and removed the cushion of the stool; beneath i t ’ lay a small leathern bag drawn up by a tarnished gilt' cord, i

“That is my bag,” said the child, holding out her small hand.

“Yes; but had I not better keep it • for you ? And, little one, perhaps I shall take you homo with me to-night'. I t is not well that you should stay in : the house with death.”

“Ia m not afraid of death, I sawc uncle Paolo die.” . " 1

“Who?" demanded Dr. Trac^, turning suddenly around.’ . j t

“My uncleT?a'olo.” ‘ __ - \ j-“And what is your name?” - .. ' S “Bcrth’a Petroni.” ’1 *■ 1 ' . | _Dr. Tra'cy’s heart seemed to"“stahd .

“My nurse, Nina.”“ And how did she come here ?”A puzzled expression came over

the grave little face.“Idon ’t know, sir; she came to

look for some one—I don’t know who.”

“How old are you, Bertha ?”“I am eight years old."

. Dr. Tracy opened the little leath­ern bag ; it contained a Yellow letter, worn through all its edges, and signed “Helen Petroni,” a slender chain of gold and a tiny ring Set with tur­quoises. He-closed it again, feeling like one.who has unexpectedly en­countered some rare, long lost treas­ure.

“Come, little Bertha, I shall take you home with me,” lie said, rising.

She put her hand in his with a sim­ple trust that brought the Involuntary tears to his eyes, and then drove away, leaving Mrs Hopper muttering- and groaning on the threshold,

“ Child,” lie said, breaking the long, oppressive silence, when they were about half way home, “you are an orphan ?”

“Yes;” said little Bertha, simply. “Do you remember nothing of your

mamma?”“Mamma,” repeated the child,

vaguely.- “My mamma—no; I never had a mamma.”

•‘Wouldn’t you like to have one?” “I —don’t—know,” hesitated Ber­

tha, “I don’t know how it would seem to have one.”

I t was intensely daidc when they drove up to the doctor’s house, but- the lights shone like cheerful beacons,, and Helen was in the hall to greet him.

“My love,” he said, standing on the threshold, “I have brought you a little daughter to love and cherish— aomo qne to fill the lost Bertha’s place.”

As lie led the fair haired .child for­ward, Helen gazed wildly at her for a moment, and then hurst into a wild, glad cry.

“ Bertha, my-own little B ertha!” The mother’s instinct had triumph­

ed over all these long, long years of separation; and in the tender em­brace that enfolded her tiny form, poor little Bertha Petroni first learned “how it would seem” to have a moth­er.

The terms rich and poor are rela­tive, not absolute. There is, perhaps, a level of absolute poverty, away down where the necessities of life are not; but we doubt Very much wheth­er there is anywhere a level of abso­lute wealth. Our ideas of whether a man is rich or poor are based on the amount ot property or income at his disposal. ® Society has fixed an artifi­cial scale by which wealth and pover­ty are determined, and a varying level above which a man is said to be rich, and below which he is called poor. This is convenient for; others, hut it has little to do with determin­ing the condition of the individual, I f we would know whether he is rich or poor, we must go deeper- than this, and take as the basis of our reckoning a principal which this artificial scale merely recognizes.

The fact that oven this arbitrary scale lias no fixed level, that its zero is ever varying, higher in one genera­tion and lower in another, up in one locality and down iu another, suggests thq true basis from which to reckon, wealth and poverty. - The rich man of the last century and the rich man of to-day have very different hank accounts. Tried by the scale of the former, the wealth of the latter would seem tremendous;, and yet he is not correspondingly richer. The man, who is rich in a country town might not he considered comfortable in New York,; and. yet the rich man,of New. York is not necessarily richer. The requirements of, the present are more expensive:than those of the last cen­tury; and a residence in New York entails far greater expenditure than a residence iu Jenkinsville.

Nor are these differences in men’s requirements always determined.by time or place. People’s tastes are different. An income which would make one person rich, might be hut a beggarly pittance to another. The wants of a man whose tastes are sim- q>le- and unostentatious,- may . be as fully supplied by a moderate salary as those of a Ralston by a princely income; The difference between the rich and the poor consists not so-much

; in the difference of their incomes, as in the different relation which;-these incomes bear to their respective wants, in whether :or not they meet-and sat­isfy' their aspirations and . desir.es. YVhat .men call wealth is determined; by the amount of property that a man has at-. his- command; but-- what is wealth to the possessor is the con-; tentment and satisfaction which it; brings him.

Three days after the failure of the government to pay the interest on its obligations he made his chief eunuch a present of 200,000 francs, but or­dered the sum paid from the public treasure. A t one time he., amused-, himself in his harem for days aVa time, then went to building. palace's, then passed agreeable hours in, count­ing over his gold. A t one time he took it into his head to have some wild beasts, and wanted some tigers. Agents were sent off at once. Fearing to cause his Majesty some discontent, they sent off emissaries in every di­rection, . with the orders to purchase without delay, and the result was tho arrival of fifty superb tigers at about the same time. But no sooner had they arrived than the . Sultan conclu­ded that lions were better suited: to his palaces; the tigers -.were' exiled into Asia,, and the; agents were once more sent out to purchase lions. Fifty of these beasts arrived at the.same time, hut after looking at them two or three times his Majesty took a fancy for parrots. As soon as this was known all the ..merchants in Constan­tinople ordered parrots, , and iq.the end the city was filled with'’ them.

Management of “Help.”At a recent meeting of the alu-

minus club of the agricultural collego, Prof. Gully spoke on the manage­ment of hired help. He said there are two requisites : first you need theright kind of men as managers, andsecondly you need the right kind of employes. Some men always have trouble with their help, while others get along with everybody. In gener­al, the nearer help approaches to a mere machine, i t is practically the most Valuable. Educated help would ho better, providing they would he content to do their work well for the wages paid. Ho gave a detailed de­scription of the management of help on his fai-m at Dearborn, and also of the way in which Ferry’s seed farm is managed. Prof. Gulley boarded his hands and worked them from day­light to dark, giving them one hour of nooning. He showed them no re­sponsibility, but gave them directions for doing everything. The help in both his and Ferry’s employ are Germans.

Too Much Trees.to protest against theAllow me

practice so common in both city and country, of setting out young trees near the house. In a short time they completely shade and almost cover the house, causing it to decay, spoil­ing the paint, and rendering it damp and unhealthy—in ‘fact, unfit to live in. This practice is so common as scarcely to attract attention. The Norway Spruce is much used for this purpose. In favorable localities, in the Alps, it grows*to the height of 150 feet. They render the Black Forest of Germany as black as night. They throw a gloom around dwell­ings, are never planted ,near Europe­an houses. In fact, Europeans never have their houses surrounded with denge shade,

Where a house is too much Bhaded, the only remedy is to cut away a part of the trees, however unpleasant this may be, and In future use more com­mon sense when planting trees around dwellings. Evergreens and decidu­ous trees t may be planted on on the north and west sides of the house, closer than on the south and east. To these two side from a distance will answer much better. I f wo wish to enjoy good health, i t is necessary to have God’s glorious sun­shine in the house, regulating it-ac­cording to the season and circum­stances, with blinds and shutters. I t is in much better taste to cultivate shrubs and flowers close to the house, and these will not grow in dense shade, while a light shade is not in- jurous.—T>. O. Richmond, in Ohio Parmer.

A Cleaning Fluid.‘Mother” sends to the Chicago

Trihme the following letter : “I send you an excellent recipe for a cleaning fluid. I have used it to -wash alpaca, camel’s-hair, and other woolen goods, and find it invaluable for removing marks that little hands have made on furniture, carpets,rags, .etc. : Four oz. ammonia; 4 oz. white castilo soap ; 2 oz. alcohol; 2 oz. glyc­erine ; 2 oz. ether. Cut the soap fine; dissolve in 1 quart of water over the fire; add 4 cents water. When near­ly cold add the other ingredients. This will make nearly 8 quarts, and cost about 75 quarts to make it. I t must be kept in a bottle and stopper­ed tight. I t will keep good any length of time. When I wash dress goods I take a pail of lukewarm, water, and put in about a teacupful of the fluid, shake around well in this, and then rinse in plenty of clean water, and iron on wrong side while damp. For washing grease from coat collars, etc., I merely take a little of the fluid in a cup of water, apply with a clean rag. I t will make every- woolen look bright and fresh.”

Foil Evil.Cut the affected part out, always

keeping in view that the incision must be with the grain of the flesh, so that no arteries he cut off; then you have only a flesh wound to*heal. There are many things that will cleanse the wound and heal the sore. Take man­drake root, washed clean and boiled down to a strong solution, bathing two or. three times per day. .Another is crocus martis, 1 drachm; white vitrol, 1 ounce ; thoroughly mixed. TJsc one table spoonful to & quart- of soft water. This is also one of the best of solutions for the human flesh in any-form, where there is any flammation.

The New Orleans Times, a leading Democratic paper, is distressed at the political situation. I t says the south: ••agreed to go into the canvass on the presumption that the solid array” of ex-confederate states “ cart be carried for Tilden. and Hendricks,” and victo­ry won by grasping two orjhree north­ern States. I t believes that a “sec­tional struggle like this is fatal to the unity of thp nation, and if prolonged it must lead: to another civil war and to absolute separation or absolute subjugation.” Yet; this is what the Democracy themselves invite, and in Georgia, South Carolina, Kentucky and Missouri they hoist confederate flags and butcher Republican voters.

your paper of the 13th you say that- Henry Chamberlain has no opinion on the financial question which lie is willing to have known until after the. State Convention. I have never be- (ore, as far as I know, been accused of withholding my political opinions or undertaking to conceal them. I en­close you two resolutions, which, so far as they go, express my present opinion on the finantial question and by which I intend to abide. Will you do me the favor to' publish them with this letter ?

Very respectfully yours,H enry Chamberlain.

A bill prohibiting obscene litera­ture from passing through the mails has passed both Houses of Congress and been signed by the President One section of the hill makes a good move toward the suppression of the frauds carried on in the lottery busi­ness, in the United, States. I t reads:

No letter or circular concerning lotteries, so-called gift concerts, or other similar enterprises offering priz­es; or concerning schemes devised and intended to deceive and defraud the public-for the purpose of obtaining money under false pretenses, shall be carried in the mail. Any person who shall knowingly deposit anything to be carried by mail in violation of this section shall be punishable by a fine of not more than §500 nor less than-

5, with costs of prosecution.

Mr. Chamberlain and his friends may attempt to make capital out of the above, je t it does not disprove our statement that the Greenback Club would not be able to get him to

peak his little piece” here at the present time. He knows that the platform of the Greenback Club

'edges its members to vote for no man who is not an openly avowed Greenback man, and we are also in formed that Mr. Chamberlain, some time since, said to a member of the Club, of this place, that he would not vote for any man for any office unless such candidate were a Green­back man. P u t the action of the Democratic State Convention, and then cf the St. Louis Convention has partly converted him, and his “pres ent opinion on the financial question” will be found in the above resolutions- We hope our Greenback friends, and

j especially the Republican members of the Club, who were so positive that

'enry Chnmberlinn was with them, and would make them a genuine Greenback speech at any time they desire, will be highly pleased with his “present opinion.”

We were a little in the wrong in our prophecy in regard to the posi­tion. to be taken by Prick Pomeroy in the Presidential canvass. He, this week; appears in full array against both political parties, and especially against Sam. Tilden and his clique.

Colorado has ratified; her State con­stitution and became a member of the American Union by a popular vote. The majority is large, there being no opposition excepting from the Ro­man Catholic church. The bishop of that church openly opposed the com stitution and told his flock to vote against it, because it prohibits the use of public money in aid of: sectarian schools or institutions. The last ter­ritorial legislature and the constitu­tional convention were both Republi­can, and only once in 14 year since the territory was: organized has

Who Took Back Pay 1The Jackson Patriot, Kalamazoo

Gazette, and several other Democrat­ic papers of lower standing, keep re­peating the falsehood that Hayes anc Wheeler voted for and took back sal­aries as Congressmen.

Put Gov. ‘Hayes was not in Con gress wben the baek-salary bill of 1873 passed. When the salaries of Congressmen were raised from §3,000 to §5,000 a year in 1S66, he was a representative from Ohio and voted against the act twice- (See pages 4270-SI, Congressional Globe, July 27, 1S6T)

Mr. Wheeler voted against the hack pay steal at every stage in 1873 and was the first Congressman to re turn the money to the treasury. He bought government bonds with it, anc sent them, to Secretary Richardson to be canceled, declaring that he would “stop so much of the interest on the public debt.

But there was a man in Congress in 1873 who voted against the back- salary grab, in order to appear well before the people, hut slyly pocketec the money, came home, and invested i t in a profitable business. He is now making “reform” speeches against Hayes and Wheeler. His name is Austin, Blair.

There was another man, a promi nent U. S. Senator in 1866, who, when Hayes voted against an increase of pay, voted for it at every stage Ho oven wanted to keep the mileage up at 40 cents, when he knew the proposed act reduced it to 20 cents His name was Thomas A. Hendricks.

it given a Colorado is the 3Sth State of the

Democratic majority, and he wriggles as the tail of the “reform” ticket. (See Congressional Globe, pages 4144-45, July 25,1866.)

Union making the number at the end of the first century almost treble that of the original colonies which then set up as a nation.”

Another unsuccessful attempt was made by the House to adopt the re­port of the Committee on Currency sad Banking, for the repeal of the resumption act. The vote stood, yeas, 102; nays, 92, not being able io secure a two-third yote m the affirmative.

And now comes the substantiated report that Slippery Sam Tilden was counsel for Oakes Ames in his Credit Mohilier schemes, as was testified by Ames and Cornelius S. Bushnell, an­other of the principal Credit-Mobilier managers and advised them to carry on their extensive frauds and robberies on the Government of about §37,- 000,000., ‘

The report of the conference com­mittee on the silver bill which pro­vides for the issue of such subsidiary silver coin as may at any time be in the Treasury in the same manner as other , currency is issued, instead of requiring the Secretary of the Treas­ury to wait until fractional currency is presented to be redeemed, was adopted by the House, • July 13th. The bill also authorizes the use of §20,000,000 of any money no w in the Treasury for the purchase of silver bullion, which is to be coined into fractional parts of a dollar and issued at its nominal value, thus giving to the Government a profit equal to the difference between the seigniorage and the actual cost of coinage. The total amount of subsidiary silver coin to be issued, including the §10,000,000 al­ready authorized by law, is limited to §50,000,000.

canting: profession of “reform,” yet is a reformer of the most thorough stamp, voted “no” on this question in the Senate, in direct opposition to the “reformer” Hendricks.

“Shall the government be ruled in time of peace by men who tried to de­stroy it in time of war? This is the question to be settled in the Presiden­tial canvass. All other issues are side’ ones, and amount to nothing com­pared with this one important ques­tion.”.

Mr. Tilden is trying to delude the public into the belief that he has been a life-long and consistant reformer. This can only be done by falsifying very recent history, and the effort is being made with more presistancy than success.

K Hayes and Wheeler Club of 226 members has been formed in Lansing,

A Washington dispatch to the Inter- Ocean of July 17th, says:

“There is no doubt that the Demo­cratic candidates are at a dead-lock on the currency question. Letters were received here to-day'from Albany and Saratoga detailing the circumstances of the interview between Tilden and Hendricks at: Saratoga, and even the Democrats here confess that Tilden cannot write such a letter of accept ance; as he desires to and have Hen­dricks for a partner. Hendricks has said that if Tilden expresses himself for hard money in his letter, of accept- ance,-he will decline the nomination, and supporters if he does not make a positive declaration in favor of hard- money. There i s . a great , deal of concern here among the Democratic leaders on account of these'differences, and both candidates are being appeal­ed to to. compromise.

letter from Hon. John Febrenbach, of Cleveland, Ohio, who has been presi­dent of the workingmen’s internation­al union, president of the machinists’ and blacksmiths’ union of North America, and a leader in another or­ganization of workingmen. • He says: “The question you ask concerning the attitude of Governor R. B. Hayes:in relation to the interest of the labor­ing masses, I can mo3t cheerfully an­swer. I am personally acquainted with the Governor, and as an advocate of the rights of my fellow-working­men, I can heartily indorse him as the real friend of all who earn their bread by honest industry. I have dedicated the best portion of my life to the ad­vancement of the interests of my fel­low toilers, and were I so situated that I could take the field during the coming campaign I should with great pleasure cast my influence in the bal­ance for Governor R. B. Hayes.”

More Democratic Reform. .The Democrats of tlie Houso, in

search- of material for "a campaign document, passed a resolution tbe other day calling upon Secretary Chandler to communicate all possible information relating to the investment of the Indian trust * fund by former Secretaries of the Interior. Notwith­standing the hot weather, old Zach; set about the work, and’ although he is not yet half through, ho has opened up a mine of Democratic rottenness that is panning out with extraordina­ry richness. Under the law which: was passed in 1S41 the Secretary of the Interior was directed to invest the money held in trust for the benefit of certain tribes in United States bonds, but the statement of the Democratic robberies which Secretary Chandler ms prepared, and upon which he is bringing suits to recover, shows that the diiforent Secretaries invested large­ly in Southern State bonds, old canal and turnpike stock, repudiated bonds, and other truck which was compara­tively worthless, and much’ of it never negotiable. In this way of Democrat­ic investment over two millions of dollars were placed, Mr, Buchanan’s Secretary of the Interior, Jacob Thompson, being responsible for one- half of the robber)7. With principal and interest, the Government is out to tbe tune of $5,000,000. Thomp­son's share of tho plunder went into the Confederacy and helped i t along. The balance probably was devoted to the interests of Democratic reform.. I t was a neat little operation—the purchase of these stocks at an im­mense discount, the best of them nev­er being worth over fifty cents on the dollar, and their entry upon the books of the Department as bought at face value. Meanwhile, the Government under tbe law has been paying the Indians 5 per cent interest from the time when the bonds were purchased until the present time, and, as the bonds have ef course yielded no inter­est to offset the interest-appropriation, the Government is out for both prin­cipal and interest.

Secretary Chandler’s tabulated statement shows a very neat instance of Democratic financiering, but it is not of that particular sort which the Democrats will want to use as a cam­paign document. They struck a very peculiar bonanza, which panned out the wrong way, when they ran over little johnny Davenport ; but in this case the development Is much richer, since Secretary Chandler has already unearthed a Democratic robbery of five millions, and is not nearly through yet. Still, with what Tilden knows of ballot-box stuffing and with what the party knows of stealing from trust-funds, there is au eminently cheerful prospect of purity in the Democratic administration. The Dem­ocrats: made several lusty and vigor­ous howls for reform in their plat­form, but they did not howl for re­form in: the practice of stuffing ballot- boxes or stealing electoral votes. Tvre do not remember that there is any howl in the platform for reform of the practice of stealing millions from funds, held in trust for Indians.-— Chicago Tribune.

says : A fragment of tbe fiery body which passed over the city on Satur­day evening, fell in the yard of one of our German citizens residing on Scott street, in the First ward, who is so, modest that he refuses to allow his cognomen to go into print. I t was seen to fall by the lady of the house, and appeared, she says, like a bail of fire. She was greatly alarmed, and locked herself up in the house, where she remained until her husband cane home, when she informed him of what had occurred. He immediately pro­ceeded to the spot designated by his wife, and there found the fragment before mentioned. I t is about the size of a hen’s egg, and in shape greati ly resembles a common rough stone, with veins of iron running through it, and it is in several places covered with copper-colored spots. I t is a valuable specimen, and has been sent' to Notre Dame university for analy­sis.

There Is much dissatisfaction in country school districts at the work­ings of the present inspection law, and much regret at the repeal of the county superintendency system by the legislature of 1875. The result is as predicted wben the matter was under discussion before the body. The standard of teachers’ qualifications has been Bensibly lowered, and, as a consequence, the schools suffer, just as was notoriously the case twenty years ago, when the present system was in full blossom. I t is not unlikely th a t; a vigorous attempt will be made at the next session of the legislature t o restore the county superintendency. That, or anything else equally effi-- cient, would be preferable to the pres­ent system.—Evening Pews.

Locals.A Health-Promoting Stimulant.

Physicians, who certainly ought to be the best judges of such * matters, declare that wholesome stimulation is not only de­sirable but essential in many instances. When the temporary good effect of a sound stimulant is confirmed and rendered permanent, as in the case of Ho3tetter’s Stomach Bitters, by the action of tonic and alterative principles combined with it, if becomes infinitely more efficacious as a renovant of physical energy and a correct­ive of those conditions of the body which invite disease. The Bitters have received the emphatic sanction of medical men who have observed the effect of that popular stimulative cordial as a. remedy for weak­ness, nervousness, dyspepsia, constipation, Inactivity of the liver, malarious fevers, and many other disorders. Its basis is sound old rye, the purest liquor known to commerce, and itself possessing tonic properties of no mean order.

B eautiful W omen.—Tho hair is the crowning glory of woman. There are few moderate defects which can­not be remedied by tho proper dispo­sition of the tresses. But when the hair begins to fall out, or turn gray, in young people, or with those in the prime of life, there is cause for real regret. When this is the case, Hall’s Vegetable Hair Renewer will be found to be a first class remedy, far superior, as a sound medical medium,to anything, else before the public. I t actually restores gray hair to its original color, and in the great major­ity of cases, causes it to grow again when it is becoming thin. I t is not like many popular preparations, a mere wash, but a scientific discovery, indorsed and used by physicians of character. Address R. P. Hall & Go., Nashua, N.

What tlio Most Lonrucd, Famous, anti Respectable men of Detroit Say About tlic threatForepniig-lt Show.We state voluntarily, and with

pleasure, that we have witnessed the gigantic show of Adam Foropaugh, tho present season, in this city, and that to our surprise its advertisements are not exaggerated. The show is the most stupendous we ever saw. Its every department is colossal, and' every feature is perfection. -The per­formance of the five Elephants by Addie Forepaugli, a lad only four­teen years old, is the most remarka­ble exhibition ever seen here. The animals are docile and obedient and exhibit a degree of inteligence almost human. The pyramid, exactly as the cuts represent it, is incredible, and still it is given true to life, to everybody’s surprise. In a word we pronounce the Foropaugh .show the grandest ever seen in this country during our lifetime.

“After witnessing the success that attends the practice of Dr. V. Clar­ence Price, wo can but speak of him as a thorough and efficient practition­er. We have for many years observ­ed Dr. Price steadily advancing his favorite doctrine for the cure of Chronic Ailments, and disseminating the principles which he concedes to be the true, scientific and unerring basis of medical practice. Wo know that Dr. Price is not one of those one-idea all-idea and no-idea doctors who exist hut for a day, he seems to be of more enduring material, free and clear from medical fashions and supersti­tions, with an independent system of his own, drawn from the secrets of nature and common sense. Devoted as he has been for so many years to the treatment of certain Chronic dis­eases, with all the qualities for a skill­ful physician, he could not be other­wise than successful.”

Those diseased who want health should see Dr. Price on his next visit at Niles, Clifton House, on Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 5th and 6th.

FLAX, TIMOTITT, MILLBT, HUNGARIAN and like seeds are threshed, separated, cleaned and-saved, us easily and perfectly as Wheat, Oats, Rye or Barley.

'+ AN EXTRA PRICE is usually paid for grain and seeds cleaned by this machine; for extra .cleanliness.

FARMERS and GRAIN RAISERS who are posted In the large saving made by it will not employ infe­rior and wasteful' machines, but will inriff on this improved Thresher doing their work. * i..* m .

Every year increases tlie populari­ty of this valuable Hair Preparation; which is due to merit alone. "We

? can assure our old patrons that it is ‘ kept fully up to its liigli standard;

and it is.the only reliable and perfect­ed preparation for restoring Gka.y

; oH Faded Hair to its youthful color,• malting it soft, lustrous, aud silken.

The scalp, by its use, becomes white and clean. I t removes all eruptions and dandrufij and, by its tonic prop­erties, prevents the hair from faUing out, as i t stimulates and nourishes the haii-glands. By its use, tlie hair grows thicker and stronger. In baldness, it restores the capillary glands to' tlveir normal vigor, and

. -will create a new growth, except in extreme old age. It-is the most eco­nomical H a i r D r e s s i n g ever nsed, as it requires fewer applications, and gives the hair a splendid, flossy

’ appearance. A. A. Hayes, .■State Assayer ofMassaclmsetts, says, “The constituents are pure, and caye-

• fully selected for excellent quality; and I consider it the B est P repa­ration for its intended purposes.”Bold by all D ruggists, and Dealers fn, JJfccticiueSi

A young gentleman undertook to relate a circumstance, one Sunday evening, in the presence of some young ladies, and he commenced as follows;

“I was about to say,” commenced tlie young man, “ that a lady friend and myself went to Bed—” when a thrust from the old man’s cane Btarted him back several feet, upon which be ex­claimed, at the top of his voice—

E c o n o m y . — “Economy, my dear, economy,” said he. “I t ’s all right tor you to have plants and all that, but there is reason in all things, and there isn’t a particle of sense in pay­ing fifty cents for a flower pot when there are a dozen empty cigar boxes about the house.;” and taking the last “ Havana” from another box, he hand­ed her the box to put an oleander in, lighted his cigar and went out.
