A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

MODES OF WALKING. An ingenious author gives the follow ing summary of the different modes of walking adopted by those who go to and fro upon the earth:

Observing jjersons more slowly. Their heads move alternately fifom side to ide, whilo they occasionally stop and urn around. ,,

Careful persons lift flieir feet high and put thorn down slowly pick up dome little obstruction, and put it down quietly by the side of the road.

Calculating persons generally walk with their hands in their pockets, and with their heads slightly iodined.

Modat persons goneraUj atepsoftl r, for fear orbeing observed. Timid persons often step off the $M©walk on meeting another, and atarnjys go around a stone instead of stepping over it.

Wide-awake persons "too-out" and have along swing to their arras, while their hands move about miscellaneously.

Careless persons are forever stabbing their toes. Lazy persons scrape about loosely wiih their heels, and are first on one side of the sidewalk aud then on the other side.

Very strong-minded persons place their toes directly in fiont of thorn, and have a kind of stamp movement.

Unstable persons walk fast and slow by turns. One-idea persons toe-in.

Cross persons are apt to knock their toes together. (tood-natured persons snap their fingers and thumb* together every few steps.

A PA lli OF GEORGIA YARNS. A perfectly responsible gentleman tolls us tho following: "The late Mr. Isaac Thornton of this eounty owned an old negro named Ike, who could walk the lea of a stream with as much ease as on land. Ho would carry a couple of largo stones In each hand to weigh him down, and fearlessly wading into a river, pas across by walking on the bottom, it mattered not how deep tho wator." Our informant say« ho frequently To«sed Broad river thus.

Mr. to. B. McGinty, of Athens, owns a |air

of horses

that can understand

everything the driver says to tbem. He never earries a whip, but governs them by words.

one of the pair fails to do

his duty the driver simply calls it by name stating that when they get to the stable punishment will bo inflicted. A gontleman tolls us that tho animal at om-e show« its understanding of tho treat by trembling in overy limb, and is frightened nearly to death when the timoarrlved for itschastisornont. Several eloar instuuccs aro recorded to ahow that these horsos |wsses* a remarkable understanding of language.—Oglothorpe Echo.

Mb Ja A. Wkathkrkord, of Springfield, Ohio, says: "Brown's Iron Bitters cured mo of tho worst case of dyspopsla man ever had. Tho muscles of my stomach, liver and bowels now Room so strong,

bellevo I could almost

digest potritl(d choose

recommend it

to all who .suffer as did I."

A WIDE-AWAKE BOY. General Grant is reported as having told a story lately to illustrate how much luck or chance circumstances had to do with making a man's fortune.

When a boy, he stated, bis mother one morning found herself without butter for breakfast, and sent him to borrow some from a neighbor. Going into the house without knocking, young Grant overheard a letter read from the son of bis neighbor, who was then at West Point, stating that he had'failed in examination, and was coming home. He got the butter, took it home, and, without waiting for breakfast, ran doqrn to of the Congressman from that the office district.

Mr. Hamar," he said, "will yon appoint me to West Point?" "No is there, and has three years to serve." "But suppose he should fail, will yon send me?"

Mr. Hamar laughed. If be don't £0 through, no use for

^°4'Promise yotTIl gire me the chance, Mr. Hamar, anyhow." Mr. Hamar promised.

The next day the defeated lad came heme, and the Congressman, laughing at Uly's sharpness, gave him the appointment. "Now," said Grant, "it was my mother's being out of butter that made me General and President."

But he was mistaken. It was his own shrewdness to see the chance, and promptness to seize it, that urged him upward.

QUEER WAYS IN WHICH PEOPLE COME TO GRIEF.

Corn cakes made from dough that had stood over night in a glazed crockery dish poisoned an enl" Ind., family recently.

When tbe boiler exploded in the saw mill near Oakland, Md., the fireman, Marshall Butler, was blown across tho Youghlogheny river and 700 feet through a thicket, and buried, bead foremost, under an old log.

MARRIED WOMENS SLAVERY. Iowa State Reporter. In what respect is the condition of many ajmuried woman better than a slave? She works hard year after year, and has a roof over her head, and is provided food so is the slave. She must beg her "master" for a little pittance with which to buy the clothing for herself and- children: the slave master looks after such wants of his chattels without their asking. She has no freedom or independence she dare not buy a single article at the store till she gets the consent of the tyrant whom the civil law made her husband. She can have no will about even household affairs that ber husband disapioves of she is a slave both in body and mind during his life,, and at his deatht if she survives him, she cannot, under the unjust and tyrannical laws of nearly all the countries in the world, sell tbe property which she has helped to accumulate, nor control her own children without employing a lawyer and getting a special permit from the court.

My children were all seriously troubled

with Whooping Cough. We treated tbem with regularly prescribed medicines, with Homoeopathic Specific, etc., with but little or no rellefuntll we gave them COB'S COUGH BA129AM, which immediately assisted nature to restore them to good health. I truly believe it the best medicine in the world for Whooping Cough. J. H. POST,

He Suffered for Yeors. Guilford, Conn., May 15,1868. For thirty-live years I have been the victim of that terrible disease, Dyspepsia huve consulted eminent physicians, and tried almost every remedy. My family physician dually told me I could not be cured. The first dose of COB'S DYSPEPSIA CURE helped me, and to-day I consider myself cured, and am ready to affirm that it is the most valuable medicine ever placed before the public.

G. H. RICHARDSON.

Paducah, Ky., May 10,1867.

During a confinement of eleven months in Llbby Prison, I was attacked with Dyspepsia in its worst form. For two years I have suffered with it. I tried doctors a great many times without relief. This spring I became so debilitated as to be unable to walk one square. After taking two doses of COB'S DYSPEPSIA CURE I ate of everything on the table, felt no distressafterwanl, and have an excellent appetite. F.T.GILLILAND,

CO.„UNCOLN,

Late Lieut. U. S. A.
