“I’ve said it often, and I say it again, that the women of our family have always iw rried gentlemen; yes, Ethel, real gentlemen — not a rough boor »-"-'~H>‘nong the whole lot! As far back as in the time of one of the Edwards there was Sir Graniford, renowned as a most gallant knight; And even in more recent times, here in America, if we look back, we shall iiud more than one Lord Chesterfield—with much better morals, though, than his lordship,- Hut, for instance, there was Colonel Briarly Morton,,one of General Washington’s officers, a most accomplished gentleman. Even my father, the judge, was everything that could be desired in the way of line manners. Dear me! A gentlemau of the old school was he. Many is the time 1 have seen him rise with , courtly grace and open the door for my mother to pass out, bowing as low to her as if she had been the Queen. So I should think, Ethel, that the recollect ion ■ ■ wof what your ancestors had been would keop you from bringing into our family one! who is as awkward as a ploughboy”—and having done her duty in airing these sentiments, Miss Barbara Morton, spinster, leaned back in her chair and fanned herself vigorously. Ethel, her eighteeu-year-old-uieee, a pretty, gray-ey&l girl, with peachbloom complexion and bronze hair,' looked up with an indignant expresssiou * on her fair fade. “Awkward as a ploughbov, did you -say ? Did you refer, to Hugh Macdonald, auntie? You do him great injustice. He may be a tritle reserved and constrained in his manners, as men who have been brought up without a mother or sister generally are. but as to being boorish, he most assuredly is not.”

y'/'But place, him beside Mr. Lamar, and see how he suffers by contrast? Now, don’t look so angry,'Ethel. I am „ an old woman, and have a right to my sentiments, and It right Ao give expression to them. What I saw last evening, too, convinces mo that I’m correct. J; Courtesy to old age, my dear, that is the riy true lest! 1 came-in the parlor, you I know, while you were entertaining your two gentleman friends. Mr. . Lamar sprang up, bowing as gracefully, as a French dancing-master. He intpiirul With deepest interest concerning t my health, aiid paid me most delicate compliments j»s to my looks. Of course, I'm not so foolish as to care about the latter, but I must say I do like to see a man make graceful speeches. Mr. Lanaar’s manners were just perfect.” that il was Hugh who TxTwWroT^Met^^^ehair, ami closed the window behtnu you, when he saw that a draught was blowing on the back of your ncot,,” said Ethel, dryly. “Did he?” rather nonplussed. “I •really didn’t notice, 1 thought it was Mr. Lamar,.’’ “Hugh never makes much parade about what he does, and that is the reason why he doesn't get the credit he deserVes.” “ Well, Mr. Lamar brought me a footstool, anyhow! And * lie talks to \ mei delightfully. Your Hugh, as you \ call him (I didn’t know as you had 1 become so intimate as to call'him by i hisjnrst name) sat a; dumb as an oyster. I 1 tried to draw him out about the last j o})era, but lie couldn’t say a word.” L < “It isn't to bo expected that he \ should. He’s working very hard at his \ profession, and spends nearly even’ \ evening studying.” i ! “ Humph! It seems to me that yon l Know a great deal about bis business. ' He Jnttst make you his conlidant. But 1 profession or not, he ought to spend \ some little time in improving himself, \ s° as to be able to talk intelligently on —•^social -topics. I’m sure Air. Lamar dobs, and I say again, Ethel, he’s a perfect gentleman, and you will do well to receive his attentions. Mark my words, miy dear, a man who is courteous to an old woman is the man who is likely to make a good, kind husband.” A week or two after this. Miss Barbara went dow’n town shopping, It was a rainy,; disagreeable day m the latter part of March, and nothing but a very important object, would have taken the good lady out in such weather. Butithis object was nothin" less than matching a piece of black brocaded silk which she wras having made to wear at an approaching reception, for, old as she was, M'iss°Barbar.i, participated in and enjoved social pleasures. Of course Miss! Ethel, or Miss Stitchall, the dressmaker, could have done the errand just as well, but Miss Barbara, like many other persons of her age, was sure that no one could do it half so \ well as herself, and that unless she saw to it personally, there would be some dreadful mistake in either design or texture. Accordingly, arrayed in an old Wa-ter-proof and a black fur hood over w hich she w ore a thick veil, for the weather was cold as well as damp, she sallied forth, armed with shopping-ba" ^ and an old gingham umbrella. ° Her appear ance was neither becoming nor calculated to suggest affluence, and the various dry-goods clerks, after the manner of these interesting bipeds, treated her rather superciliously, and . show’ed no disposition to exert themselves in behalf of their shabby custom- ’ er, and it w as not till they caught sight of a diamond ring under the coarse cotton gloves, and also the contents of a well-tilled purse, that anything like animation was restored to them. All of which, being a remarkably shrewd person. Miss Barbara did not fail to perceive, and her soul was tilled with wrath. ■ “Humph! Queer world, this!” she muttered to herself as she left the store and took her stand on a windy streetcorner, waiting for a car. ' “Queer world! A rainy day and shabby clothes let one know just what one is worth! Plague take those clerks! I’m sure I don't see why Darwin needed to have worried about! his ‘missing link!’ If he’d just gone into a dry-goods store he’d found lota of them! In my opinion, the average clerk is one grade below a monkey? Dear me! That wind nearly swept sne into the gutter! I do wish—ob.tnere's a oar!—*ue!”—fiercely brandishing her umbrella %t the conductor, who. in the attitude of “Napo

Icon at St. Helena, the rear platform. A moment more. stood moodily on and Mis- Barbara found hecsolf shored with no great ceremony into the interior of the car, which latter immediately started up again so suddenly that the jsyiod. lady almost lost her balance and narrowly escaped tumbling into the lap of a callow college student near Jthe door. Fortunately recovering herself, she soon made the discouraging discovery that the car was crowded—not vacant! A negro laundress with seat a big basket, four or live school-girls giggling because legian, a of the aforementioned ~ col-white-aproned bonne with a mum auu two larger children, several ladies and gentlemen—yes, every seat was tilled But Miss Barbara, peering with her sharp black eyes from one end to the lit KOI* ,k\ 1, .1.. .It,...,.. iL .. 1 other, made another discovery that tilled her with hope. “Well, I declare!” she said to herself. “If there isn't Mr. Lamar! Surely it is he, right at the end of the- car. And how well he looks. That grey suit is very becoming! There! ho .s glancing this way. Of course, he'll give me his seat—he’s always so polite! Am ful I’ll be to to take it, too, for And tliank1’m almost ready to drop. But strahgo to say, the polite Mr. Lamar showed no intentions of giving up his Seat to the new comer. He only gave one supercilious glance at her, not recognizing in the forlorn and dowdyish figure the wealthy Miss Barbara Morton, and then turning with grin to the gentleman who sat next him, he said in a whisper loud enough to reach Miss Barbara's sharp ears: “The old duller looks as though she’d come out of the ark. If she expects me to give up my seat, she’s, grandly mistaken,” and so saying, he proceeded to spread himself comfortably and take out a newspaper. The person to whom he had spoken, a,ud who, by the way, was none other than Mr. Hugh Macdonald, also failed to recognize m the new comer the aunt of his lady love, but seeing that it Was an old woman; he immediately rose, and with an air which, although it was not particularly graceful, was full of genuine courtesy, offered his seat to Miss Barbara. “ She dropped into it with a sigh of relief. Just at this instant, the ear stopped and bonne and children alighted, leaving the seat next Miss Barbara vacant. She motioned to Mr. Macdonald to take it, at the same instant drawing aside her thick, veil and saying in her sharp, high-pitched tones: '“Sit down, do, Mr. Hugh. You are the very person I wanted to see.” (A hastily improvised fiction, of course, but it suited the old lady’s ^purpose). “I have au invitation for you to come up to our house this evening aud take "tea vath us. Do you say you will?” Mr. MAcdouald announced his perfect willingafesss and Mr. Lamar, the pink of eottAesy, collspsed fbehind his newspapea—Christian at Work

&BILL ARP AT HOME. -%iThe Young Folks Give a Candy Pulling, Which Affords the Ifoltosophcr Much Enjoyment, Not ^jJijialloyed with Discomfort. ' . , Candyttpullings are a nuisance, but 1 suppose we have to hav? them. I have now arrived at that ago and frame. of mind that I submit to anything.— anything to please the children. And so when they got their mother's com sent the matter was all arranged and the company invited without consulting me. There was a spare room in the house, and, as I had some writing to do, I adjourned myself there to have a quiet time. While I was ruminating before the tire and smoking the pipe of peace and tranquility, the young folks began to gather, and,"before lknew.it, the young ladies were ushered into my room as a reception, room, and I was kindly informed that 1 would have to vacate. With a sigh of resignation I retired and poked around generally. I wish 1 had a room—a room of my own —and Mrs. Arp says she wishes she had a room—a room of her own. But she can t have one. She never will have one, for children and grand-chil-dren would be lost and I would be lost. She can’t slip oft' to Nabor Freeman's but what, a, dozen want to know where she is and when "She is coming back. The dog and the cat follow her—no, she will never have a room to herself. But I found good company at the candy pulling and had a good time anyhow, for I do love these naborly visits. Hove to see the young folks happy and I love to discourse polities anil crops and naborhOod news with the older ones. But this candy business is not all serene,tone of the girls burned her hand dreadfully, and is still carrying it in a bandage,' And then it is so messy, as Mrs. Arp says. The children get candy all oyer the floor aud the tables and bureau. Its sticks to my stockings yet when 1 get ready to so to bed. It melts and smokes on the hearth. £he dishes are all daubed and hard to clean up again. The door knobs and dipper handles are sticky and they keep sticky as long as the candy lasts. But every pleasure has its drawback. After every dinner the dishes are to bo washed. * After every repose the bed has to be made up. We ride and drive and then the horse has to' bo put up and fed. Wo dance to sweet music and have to pay the fiddler. We go on a picnic or an excursion and come home tired and weary. Every pleasure seems to be followed by» P»in or by trouble just as the night follows the day. But still it is right, for it is nature. We live in contrasts and bn joy them. Suppose we do hunt all day and find no game. Hope is a good thing, and it was one of the questions we used to debate when I was a boy, “whether the pursuit or the possession gave the most pleasure.” 1 took the affirmative one when I was pursuing my sweetheart with love and hope and devotion, and I argued my side with earnest eloquence. But when I lost her and another fellow got possession, 1 flopped over to the other side. In a year or so I recovered and pursued Mrs. Arp with fear and trembling, and when 1 possessed her I was happy. The pursuit is a lively, interesting and uncertain business where a young maiden is' concerned, but the possession is solid and sure and never gives out.—Atlanta Constitution.

Street Railways Abroad. Horse-ear railways are an American invention, and have been introduced into every town in this country having 20,000 inhabitant, or more. In New York there are nearly 560 miles of street railroad, but in Europe the mileage of these tramways, as they are there called, are relatively small. In the United Kingdom in 1882 there were only 563 miles of road, of which seventy were in London and 118 in Manchester. In the sane year there were only 327 railways in France, of which 155 were in Paris. Our New York elevated road system is, so far. ahead of th? world; but Berlin boasts of an elevated road seven miles long, the motive power of which is electricity. Tnis motor is soon to be tested on the New York elevated system. * Sir William Thomson, the greatest electrician in the world, declares the conditions are perfect on the New York “L.” roads for bringing out all the advantages of electrical motor power.— Demorest's Monthly. —D.

In a similar way alum in bread may bo instantly detected by placiug a small piece of the suspected loaf in a solution of logwood and carbonate of ammonia; if alum be-present the bread will turn blue.—Toledo Blade. —In stables for cows the manure gutter is usually parallel with the manger or to the row of stanchions to which the cows, big or little, long or short, are fastened. Long cows are compelled to lie partly over the gutter, the sharp edge of which bears deeply and cruelly into their flesh; the droppings of short cows fall and freeze upon the floor, an uneven mass for the cow to lie Upon. Gutters should be nearer the manger or tho stanchions at one end than at the other, so that cows of different sizes will have proper floor-length beneath them.—Prairie Farmer. SELF-PROTECTiO N. Ways la Which riants Protect Themselves from Assault. Plants have several methods of protecting themselves from assault, among which is that of secreting an acid poison ip their leaves. In the Bannneulacew this secretion is a virulent poison, and half an ounce of that secreted by the celery-leaved buttercup Would kill a dog. The root of an Indian species of this order is used in the Himalayas to poisou arrows for tiger-shooting. It is said that tramps use the leaves of the common buttercup, as well as those ol the celery-leaved kind, “to produce blisters on t heir limbs in order t o excite compassion.”! The reason why ferns grow in such unmolested profusion is that they are steeped in tannin, a substance very much disliked by all animals. Another most effectual means of protection adopted by plants is the secretion of a sticky substance on their stems, in which ants and other unwelcome Jnseets are caught, The writer mentions a curious example of sagacity in connection with this sticky substance. The amphibious Persicaria, which grows both on laud and water, only secretes the sticky matter when growing on land, as if quite aware that the water was sufficient protection from creeping insects. Even the milky juices exuded by the leaves of the common lettuce,; milkthistle, etc., may be frequently ranked among the defensive arrangements of plants. Kerner narrates some experiments he made, which prove that ants and other insects crawling over such leaves soon get glued down by the milky exhdations produced by the'claws of their tiny feet. His experiments were made with Laetuea angustana and Lactuea saliva. He says: “ No sooner had the ants reached the uppermost leaves, or the peduncles and the involueral bracts, than at each moment the terminal hooks of their feet cut through the epiderm, and from the little clefts thus made milky juice immediately began to flow. Not only the feet of the ants, but the hinder parts of their bodies, were soon bed rabbled with the white fluid; and. if the ants, as wsis frequently the case, bit into the tissue of the epiderm in self-defense, their organs of mastication also at once became coated over with the milky juice. By ’ this the ants were much impeded in their movements, and in order to rid themselves of the annovauce to w hich they were subjected, drew their feet through their mouth, and tried also to clear the hinder part of their body from the juice with which it was smeared. Tho movements however, nrhich accompanied these eftorts simply resulted in the production of new fissures in the epiderm, and fresh disrhages of milky juice, so that the position of the ants became each moment worse. Many of them now tried to es- '«!*> by getting as best they might to the edge of the leaf, and letting themselves fall from thence to the ground. Some succeeded, but others tried this method of escape too late, for the air soon hardened the milky juice into » tough brown substance, and after this all the stragglings of the ants to free themselves from the viscid matter were ip vain. 'J'heir movements became padually fewer and weaker, ami finally they ceased altogether, and the dead animals were left adhering to the involucre, or the uppermost branches.— Harper's Weekly. —A New York woman promised a. boy fire cents if he would ran an errand for her. Upon his return she tried to put him oft' with a cent. He picked up ber pet eat and made off with it, saying be would keep tabby for security. A Sliceman captured him, but the Judge icharged him and required the woman to pav over the four cents. —If. r, Tribune. '

Feeding Value of Cottonseed MeatThe feeding value of cottonseed meal Is the highest of all cattle foods. It is estimated at about three and one-half times as much as good hay in nutritive value. It contains about twenty-three per cent, of nitrogenous substance and ten to twelve of fat, with about twenty per cent, of other carbonaceous matters. Upon this account its manurail value is very high and mote than that of any other food, being rated at about per to i of the meal. This is because a very large portion of the nitrogen in it is. not digested, and is not discharged in the urine and the manure. But this fact is something of the very greatest importance to farmers who use the cottonseed meal, because nitrogenous matter that is not digested is discharged through the bowels and kidneys, and chiefly through the kidneys, causing a very much increased action of these organs, which is apt to produce disease unless the greatest caution is observed and the meal is fed in small quantities and mixed with other less nutritious substances.—N. Y. Times. —The Wintnn Indians of the Sacramento Valley believe in three worlds, and that each lias its peeular class of inhabitants.

[facsimile or ms-wum Lima.] TO THE PUBLIC, GREETING: Boards of Health are now everywhere eOf* rectmg the faults of sewerage and advising the people how to prevent future epidemies. But other precautions are necessary, without which no amount of Sanitation can avail. Dr. Koch says that cholera has but little chance among those who keep the digestive organs and the liver, skin and kidneys (the sewers of the body) in healthful operation. Warner’s SAFE Remedies are the best scientific Curatives and Preventives, and we cannot too much emphasize the importance of using them now, as a safeguard against any future scourge Much of the common ailments are caused, not primarily by bad blood, but by IMPAIRED LIVER AND KIDNEYS. This resulta in blood corruption and injury to the entire system. Remove this impaired action, and most ordinary ailments will disappear. Other practitioners have held that extreme liver and kidney disorders are incurable. We, however, by the severest tests, have unanswerably proved thi contrary. Please note: FIRST.—WE DO NOT CURE EVERY KNOWN DISEASE FROM ONE BOTTLE. Warner’s Safe Remedies are specifics, which have been successively put v upon the market ONLY IN OBEDIENCE TO STRONG PUBLIC DEMAND. These remedies are: Warner’s SAFE Cure, for kidney,, liver, bladder ai* blood disorders, General debility, Impotency, gravel, female irregularities; Warner’s Safe Diabetes Cure, for Diabetes—the only known specific; Warner’s Safe Rheumatic Cure for Rheumatism, Neuralgia; Warper’s Safe Pills for constipation, diarrhoea, biliousness; Warner’s Safe Nervine for nervous disorders; WarnOr’s Safe Throatine for Asthma, catarrh; Warner’s Tippecanoe for all stomach derangements. SECOND.—Warner*8 Safe Remedies, spite of all opposition, have won the victory and are everywhere recognized as leading STANDARDS. THIRD.-After six years of unequalled expert ience, we give these unqualified guarantees: GUARANTEE I.—That Warner’s Safe Remedies are pure, harmless, effective.

GUARANTEE III..—That Warner’s Safe* Remedies are NOT MERELY TEMPORARY, BUT PERMANENT, IN THEIR CURATIVE EFFECTS AND WILL SUSTAIN EVERY CLAIM, IF USED SUFFICIENTLY AND PRECISELY AS DIRECTED.FOURTH.—Special inquiry among hundreds of our oldest patients results in unequivocal testimony that the cures wrought six, five, four and three years ago, were PERMANENT. And mo3t^>f these Patients were pronounced INCURA^ BLE when they began Warner’8 Safe Remedies. Read a few of Thousands of examples:

E.JbUBK JA51H5 &. fKtOLU 1 1 , BOX 202, | Cleveland, Ohio, founder of North Union I Shakers : In 1878 was pronounced incur- 1 ably sick of chronic Bright’s disease, by the 1 best physicians. Then he resorted to Warner’s Safe Cure. March 12. 1S83, wrote : “ Health never better. Just past 80th year.” Oct. 18,1S84: “I am enjoy- 1 ing a very comfortable degree of health, ” j He says also, “I am an enthusiast over I Warner’s SAFECure.” Usedadoz. bottle)?. / MBS. HELEN LEIKEM, West McHenry, \ 111., two years ago used Warner’s Safe \ Cure and SAFE Nervine for complete netvotis prostration. August, 1884, she wrote “ I have never enjoyed such good healtii; . have had no return of ray old trouble.” S. A. GETTYS, Insurance agent, Chilli-1 cothe, Ohio, in 1879 was attacked with vertigo, which for two years and a half periodically affected him. He was a chronic sufferer from dyspepsia. He had the best medical attendance without success. In 1883 he was cured by Warner’s Safe Cure, and writing Dec. 5th, 1SS4, from East Liverpool, Ohio, he said ‘‘I have never had tlje J least trouble since I used Warner’s Safe j Cure, which benefited me permanently.” j / The Rev. JAMES WAXHAM, of ijal Porte, Ind., in Jan., 1882, used Wametj’sl Safe Cure for Bright’s disease and after ' four months treatment says he was as well as ever. June 28th, 1884, he wrote, “My health is fully restored, and I am free from annoyance from my old complaint.” R. H. McMICHAEL, of Emporia, Kan; , | in 1S80, while living at South Bend, Ind , had inflammation of the bowels and a hald lump formed on his right side covering half the abdomen. Forty doctors e& amined him, five treated him but gave him no hope of cure. He lost sixty-five pounds of flesh. June 1st, 1884, he began using Warner's Safe Cure, 23 bottles of which fully restored his health. July 15th, iS84, hewrote, “ Mycure ispermanent. I was 1 a living skeleton, who was restored by the i use of Warner’s Safe Cure.” JOHN W. MAPES, M. D.. Paris, 111., used' Warner’s Safe Cure in 1880 and Nov. 24th, 1S84, he said “my kidney trouble cured then, remains so to this day.” EDWIN FAY, Esq., Davenport, la., in i3E i ) had Bright's disease and doctors said he ' could not live six months. Dec. 4th. 1S84, he wrote, “ Warner’s Safe Cure used as directed, will cure any rase of Bright’s . disease. I am now free from any kidney I disorder.” J

Wooden Craft Built Without Nails. Of the mechanical arts known to the people of Polynesia the most important was the construction of canoes. Some of these were more than one hundred feet in length, and would carry two or three hundred men. Sometimes they were built double, the two being united by a platform. They were were propelled by oars or sails. The latter were three-cornered mats, suspended between two masts, one in each ship. The smaller craft usually had an outrigger on one or both sides to prevent upsetting. When we consider that the only tools used were made of stone or shelf, we can see that it must have been the; work of years to construct one of the larger canoes. One must not think of the parts as fastened with holts or nails. The keels were trunks of trees hollowetj with the stone adze or tiro; tew these were attached planks trimmed to fit closely, and bound with cords of eOeoanut fiber. They were made water-tight with a filling oi gum mixed with the same fiber finely divided. These seemingly frail craft were vet so seaworthy that they outrode severe storms, and endured voyages of hundreds of miles with entire safety.—American Antiquarian. SINGULAR TABLE TOPS. Slabs Made of Cross Cuts of Petrified Rocky Mountain Trees. “The finest table in this town is one I have here,” said a furniture dealer yesterday, pointing to a medinm-sized oenter table made of ebony, with a dark gray stone top. A glance at the top shewed that was a perfect imitation

I of the grain of a tree, where the log ha I been sawed square across, including a] outline of the juncture of a limb wit) the tree. ‘•How did.von contrive to mark tic stone so, or did it happen to form itsel in that way?” “We didn't make and it didn’t fora itself, unless the petrifaction of a trei is galled a happening. This, is a eros section of a petrified log. The petri tied forests found in some parts of th< Rocky Mountain region are being util izcd. The most- beautiful stone hithert* in use has been the Mexican onyx. 1 had one disadvantage. It was impossi ble to get two tables to match. Whei a slab was sawed ok the surface on om side of the saw would polish up in om figure—an irregular star, for instanct —while the surface on the other side o the saw might look like a rainbow o three colors. An offer of $1,000 wa: once made to me to match an onyx ta ble of unusual beauty. The single om sold for $250.” “Do sections of petrified trees sell as high?” • In rare instances, but they art usually as low as •'5150 and $175.”—JV Y.

BUSINESS AND MATRIMONY. This Time It Was John Bull, and'Sot the '• l*roverbial Yankee. As an evidence of the keen business instinct prevalent in this age of trade, we maty state a London advertising agent, i£ho was married this week by a Registrar in the West End, endeavored during the service to book that official for an advertising order. The ■conversation as it is reported to us, was as follows: Registrar—Will you please, sir, repeat these words after me: “I, 0P—do solemnly declare.” Bridegroom—“1, C P -, do solemnly'declare.” Did I observe you, sir, cutting an advertisement from j'our newspaper when 1 came in? Registrar—Yes. I sometimes have the advertising of births, deaths and marriages intrusted to me. Let us, if you please, proceed with the marriage. “That I know of no lawful impediBridegroom—“That I know of no lawful impediment-r” May I take the opportunity, sir. of explaining to you and others who are present the nature of my.business. You will find from these circulars that in the matter of any of the advertisements you mention you can effect a considerable saving by placing the order with me. Registrar—Really, sir, this is most irregular and improper. I mast ask your attention for the remainder of the service. “Why I, C-—- P-, should not enter into matrimony with thee, D-M-Bridegroom—“Why I, C—— P—, should not enter into matrimony with thee, D-—- M—--T.” At a commission j of live pet cent, sir, I am, prepared to j accept the smallest order for any paper ] in Great Britain, Ireland, the Colonies, India and abroad.” Tableau. —Lontlou Echo. —Very few Mexican ladies dare to be seen in pubfe on horseback, as it is there considered a vulgar form of exercise for women. In the City of Mexico English or American ladies who take horseback exercise usually adopt the Mexican costume, as' far as the hat is concerned,-wearing a broad-brimmed felt hat (similar in shape to the. ordinary Mexican sombrero) in either black, light gray or pale maroon color. In these sombreros, which are made of much lighter weight for ladies than those worn bv men, they look very jaunty. The rest of the costume is almost exactly the same as that worn by equestriennes in Paris, Loudon or New York.—V. Y. Herald. ment
