A dramatic club at Omaha presented a play at one of the city's opera houses for the benefit of a church.

The Chicago Mail says that Prof. David Swing is so homely of feature and so uncouth of form that people stop on the street to view him as a curiosity. He adds interest to the situation by chewing licorice root. £:MHi

Do not be in too much of a hurry to get rid of your gold dollars. The pieces command a premium from collectors, as their coinage has been stopped, and all that come back to the mint are melted over for larger pieces.

The boy who used to black "Coal Oil Johnny's" shoes in the days of that oil millionaire's prosperity is now the owner of his former patron's farm. Several new wells have been drilled on it, and the owner values it at |60,000. "Gentlemen, I am starving! for God's sake help me to enough to buy a meal!" So said an old chap in New Orleans just before he fainted. They took him to a hospital, and lo! they found over $4,000 sewed into the lining of his vest.

A French doctor advised a nervous woman to sit in a room with a dozen rats running about, and she tried it and was made crazy. The physician has just got his sentence of fifteen years, and he'll hear rats to the end of his days.

Samuel Angel, of Dubuque, was in the habit of scattering broken glass, gravel stones and the like objects over the floor and then making his wife dance a jig in her bare feet, but she died the other day and the lonely Samuel has gone to jail

A London physician says that no two lives are alike. One man must be temperate and steady to live fifty years, while another may be ever so reckless and live to be eighty. Whiskey kills some and adds years to the life of others.

The man who Is carried over Niagara Falls Is unconscious before he strikes the rocks at the bottom. Doctors are so j^reed, and there's no reason why any one should turn to poison or the rope. Try and take a hackman with you when you go over.

Ira D. Sankey, "the sweet singer of Israel," is for the moment one of the figures of London streets. It is said that Sankey seeks inspiration in the topical songs of the London conce-'t halls for the tuneful melodies wh'ch find their way year by year into the Moody and Sankey hymn collections in Amecjca.

A Brooklyn paper reports that 110 new members have joined Plymouth Church since Mr. Beecher's death and that Rev. Dr. Lyman Abbott has proved that he combines unusual executive ability with the intellectuality of the scholar. He is building up the church and he is attracting large congregations by his sermons.

An unmarried man, of Buffalo, N. Y., recently drew a crisp, new $5 bill out of the bank. A happy thought struck him and he wrote an ardent love letter across the face of it in blue ink and signed his initals and address. Then he spent the $5. By Thursday he received fourteen answers, many of them containg photographs. He will marry one of them (not the photographs, but the original of one of them) early in December.

A good colored brother in Georgia recently wrote to his Bishop for a clerical supply as follows: "Send us a Bishop to preach. If you can't send us a Bishop, send us a sliding elder if you can't send us a sliding elder, send us stationary preacher if you can't send him, send us a circus rider If you can't spare him, sond us a locus preacher if you can't spare a locus preacher, send us an exhauster." That settled it and he got a preacher.

Atkins Lawrence, while in Boston a few days ago, Jearned that his brother Walter, whom he had long supposed dead—burned to death iu the Brooklyn Theatre fire on December 5, 1876—was still alive and a prosperous citizen of Brockton, Mass.

hands result from two causes. Too much alkali in the soap, which draws the natural oil from the skin, leaving it harsh, dry, and liable to crack, or the fats, from which the soap is made, are not properly combined with the alkali, so, from its greasy nature, it is impossible to rinse off the soap after washing. Prof. Leeds, Ph. D., Stevens Institution of Technology, says: "The IVORY SOAP, while strongly cleansing, leaves the skin soft and pleasant to the touch, instead of harsh, uncomfortabe, and liable to chap."

A WORD OF1 WARNING.

There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the 'Ivory'j" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.

MORE ADVICE TO HUSBANDS. When your liver is out of order, remember food cannot be palatable, therefore do not grumble and turn over on your plate what your wife has provided for you, as if it were not fit for a dog to eat. 1 you have a wifo who does keep her house in order, is not constantly at war with her servants and is not extravagant, has meals regularly and well served, and does her best to please, let her see you appreciate her otherwise she will cease to try and make your home comfortable and in due course your troubles at home will be infinitely worse than any you may have at office, store or shop. And last, but not least, buy all your table supplies at headquarters, which is E. Wright's big White Front grocery where to-day you will find such good things as Rock Candy Honey Drips in pretty decanters, Lettuce, Spinach, Kale, Parsnips,Cauliflower,Quinces,Grapes,Honey, Sweet Potatoes, Bananas, Lemons, New Maple Syrup, Beets, Cabbage, Celery, Parsley, Quails,Dressed Turkeys, Ducks, and Chickens, Choice Mackerel, Choice Creamery and Country Butter, Dried
