A Wnr Incident.' Tltßcry of “Oh-Lq awakened no entliusiaHmCln the hearts of the “Third Ohio” when they found themselves enrouto, as prisoners ot war, for that famous capital; nor wpre they enthusiastic when they halted for the night and prepared to sink aupperlesa into dreamland. The Fifty fourth Virginia Regiment hail the Ohio boys in charge. The Virginia boys soon began to prepare supper, and in the preparation the Ohio boys were not forgotten Old Virginia hospitality showed itself even in war. The men soon made their appearance with coffee kettles, corn bread and bacon, the best they had. In a few minutes the coffee was steaming, the bacon cooked and the prisoners and the captors sat down together around the camp-tire, “like kinsmen true and brothers tried.” The hungry, grateful Ohio boys ate with a relish such as no one can appreciate unless he has been in a like situation. No wonder there was a warm spot in every heart of the Third Ohio, ever after, for the generous Fifty-fourth Virginia. A fresh slide in the magic lantern gives anoter of these shifting war pictures In the distance is Mission Ridge, which has just been stormed. That long lino of prisoners passing over the pontoon bridge anti up the stony mountain road is the Fifty-fourth Virginia. A soldier on duty at Kelley’s Ferry asked indifferently of one the prisoners, as the rigiment passed “What regiment is that?” “The Fifty-fourth Virginia,” was the reply. In an instant the loungers sprang to their feet and rushed to where the Fifty-fourth had been put in camp. “The Fifty-fourth Virginia is in camp at the Ferry.” Was heard on all sides, and the boys of the Third Ohio rushed into camp of the prisoners. The Ohio boys brought out the boxes thest bad just received from home. Coffee and sugar, beef and canned goods, and in fact, the best they had, was freely lavished upon their former friends. They remembered gratefully their debt of honor, and paid it nobly. It was the same old scene over, with the shading reversed. For one night, at least, both “Confeds” and “Feds” enjoyed again the sweet grace of hospitality that could bring a smile even to the grim vissage of war. —Blue and Gray. A Sad Heath. Can you describe anything worse than a young person dying by inches with consum) ton, cut off in the bloom of youth when brigltfr prospects and prosperity are before them. A very sad death indeed. Is it not a fact that most cases of this kind are brought on by a cough—only slight at first, then more violent, followed by night sweats and a general breaking down of the entire system? These are cases in which people are to blame, why not check this’slight cough? Dr. Marshall’s Lung Syrup is guaranteed tovure. it will prevent consumption. Use it before it is too late. By druggists. Price 25, 50,51.00. j Uncle Sam has given a pension to Mrs. O'Leary, who owned the famous caw that kicked the historic lamp that started the well-remembered conflagration that burned the city of Chicago. The Pension was granted on account of the military services Mr. O'Leary, and not on account of the cow Two farmers were heard not long since discussing their local paper. One thought it had too many advertisements in it. The other replied: “In my opinion the advertisements are far from being the least valuable part of it. I look them over carefully and save five times the cost of the paper each week through the business advantages 1 get from them. Said the oilier: “I believe you are right—l know that they pay me well amkrather think it not good taste to find fault witli the advertisement after all.” Those men have the right idea of the matter. It pays any man with a family” to take a good local paper for the sake of the advertisements if nothing more, and if business men fail to give farmers a chance to read advertisements in a local paper.they are blind to their own interests, to say the least of it. “You have never invited me to your place of business and I never go where I'm not invited; I might not be welcome” was the reply .

An Untold Story. He was an old man, gray-haired and wrinkled. And he was a typical tramp, too—dirty and slovenly and appearing as if he wore constantly’ on the alert looking for a Kick or a blow. I was in the waiting-room killing time, for the train was an hour late, and when I saw him sidling toward me I buried myself in the paper. He passed the policeman unnoticed and was just about to address me when a handsome and elegantly attired, gentleman uttered a halfsuppressed exclamation. and glancing up I saw the two oppisites gazing at each other. One, handsome as a picture, witli an open, frank countenance and keen, but tender eye; the other, slovenly and slouching, with a blurred eye and a sneaking hang-dog look. Tliey stared at each other for a moment, when the handsome gentleman pulled out a plethoric pocketbook and handed it over to the tramp. The latter’s face changed color just a little, as a wave of blood flowed up under the

dirt, butlie took the pocketbook, opened it, took out one bill from a largo bundle of them, put it into his trousers pocket, (he hud no coat or vest) handed the other bills and the pocket book back anil slightly inclined his head. Notaword had been spoken, but now the donor said quietly, but very earnestly: “Won’t you please take more? Just this once?” The only answer was a deeper Hush of the face and a negative movement of the head, as he turned and passed out, into the night. There was a heart story back of it ail, but even when the donor sat down beside me and sighed, 1 could not bring mykelf to the point of intruding upon his privacy. After a few minutes he roused himself as from a trance and saw ml* gazing at him with an interest I could not conceal, and, as he sprang to his feet atthe calling of the train, ho passed by me going out of the door ami remarked: “One of the debts a man can never fully repay—a reminiscence of Shiloh.” A fancy was left to fill out the story. —Detroit Free Press Deserving Praise.

These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. Blackburn & Millers’s drug store, (successors to A. I*. Pierce How It Works. The working of Republican “protection to American labor” is gradually becoming very clear to the people. In the first place, a law is passed giving to privileged classes of manufacturers the power to Impose exorbitant prices without danger of competition. Then, ostensibly to preserve home competition, an anti-trust law is passed; but it is not enforced; perhaps it can not be. At least, producers combine to limit proauction and maintain high prices, and the officials charged with the duty of preventing this do' notliing about it. In order to give color to the pretext that high duties are in the interest of American workmen a law is passed forbidding the importation of European pauper labor under contract. But this law also is systematically and successfully evaded. No officer attempts to use the law to prevent the wrong. The Senate investigation now in progress here shows that the “combines” which are organized in defiance of law constantly import cheap laborers without hinderance. But the taxes which the consumer has to pay are enforced relentlessly. The whole system from beginning to -the end, and in-nil its parts, operates to favor the rich and oppress the poor.' —New York World. Good News. No other medicine in the world was ever given such a test of its curative qualities as Otto’s Cure. Thousands of bottles of this great German remedy are being distributed free or charge, by druggists in this country, to those afflicted with consumption, asthma, croup, severe coughs, pneumonia and all throat and lung diseases, giving the people proof that Oltd'.s Cure will cure them, and that it is tlie grandest triumph of medical science.

Black rain fell for several minutes. Not a few scattered drops, but in a steady downpour. The water stood in puddles along the sides of the roads, and the reflection of the sky which it cast off was a curious one. The fact which gives credence to this story is this: The wonder was seen in many places by many people; and Hie statements of these numerous witnesses go to substantiate the occurrence. Now that so many housekeepers are beginning to stain their liligers picking over berries, some of them may like to know that if they will dampen their hands and burn a couple of matches underneath, the brimstone fames will take the stain all off.

Women Should Keep Book*. Whether a woman is poor or rich it behooves her to acquire methodical business habits, keeping her little accounts accurately and knowing to a cent just what she does with her money, whether she has JO cents or $lO to expend on her own little personal wants. An allowance is the first step toward this end, if at the same time it is impressed upon her that every sum spent should be set down with unfailing regularity. In black and white one notes how much more easily tlie money can be spent, how quickly it goes and what foolish little nothings have lured it from our pockets. Without setting down each item it is ten chances to one that you will conclude you must have lost some money when you cannot see how that $lO bill went when you only bought such a very few things. The neat little figures are a genuine restraint, besides instilling a habit and system Ujat will lie of great value if fortune ever smiles and a great estate ever comes to your hands, and still greater if economy is a necessity and the dollar has to be forced into doing duty for two. Unless the accounts are kept accurately, and cash made to balance every evening, you had better not attempt any bookkeeping at all, for slipshod methods are worse than none, and only confuse everything rather than help matters. If anything is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well, and there is nothing so productive of future good as the habit of looking carefully out for the pennies when school days are the only trials, and the allowance of 50 cents a week goes for candies and pickles. If this plan is once established in childhood, with a clear knowledge of where her money goes and what she has to show for it. Eaton Saltzer—Where are those oysters I ordered on the half shell?
