Nothing BO much ineje ases one’s
reverence for others as a great sor¬

THEY F LIKE TO BE HUMBUG
■' GED.
Th;rc id somathing strange an d
interesting ki the way people like to
be humbugged by stranger s. We
could mention many instances in
which smoothe tongued strangers
ieaced our citizens to their hearts
content. Thousands oif dollars have
invested in fruit trees in this cotinty
since tbe war, and the products bf
the orchards ha ve giown less valua¬
ble from ye^a to yeai. The old
stock has been neglected, and the
new has not prosed itself of equal
value.
Lightning rods arc not to be des¬
pised but they have cost the owners
of the houses that aro protect ed by
them twice as much as they should.
I Many Culver Stoves were sold
throughout the country for 118 that
cost $10 laid down aw the depot.
Tbe ranges sold in the eouuty last
year were probably no less a cheat
thm JcC diver stove.
Of the many patents sold in the
county, • we remember none that
j,roved of value. The purchasers have
usually mude no effort ^o realize on
ibe pattnts and when they did make
an effort, they generally failed. 't he
writer once gave $15 for the right
to sell a washing machine in the
264tn district, but after leficbtion be¬
came satisfied that it was worthless
aadnever even exhibited it to a single
ILCrucvai. lie LcugLi a patent
churn, but after three or four efforts
to dbugH buiter witb it, jt was abau
duued. Many others oi the same
sort were sold, but not one was used
u single mouth. Dr II D Aderhold
has iuycsUn;\^ bd deal oi inouey in
paUente without uny reumi.

The remains of the sweetheart and
parents of Keller were buried on the
spat that he had 'selected; for flic
family cemetery. The funeral sei;
vices were conducted by the to/d
minister and were solemn and im¬
posing, and attended by a large con¬
course of people. It w is sometime
before Keller recover^ 1 his usual
equilibrium, but he finally settled
down to the duties he had marked
out for the conduct of his future
life.
His lir.d great care was .the edu¬
cation and training of bis child, th?
next was, the task of benefiting oth -
ers to the best of his ability, lie
helped the helpless, clothed the
naked and fed ttc hungry, but his
chief effort lay in educating the
young. Experience and observation
hat} taught him, that reform and
general improvement had to lie ae
comp/Wied mainly; through early
training and hereditary entdilm eiifs _
lie wils satisfied that ail persons
were capable of' improvement, but
■*
that great and lastring reforms, were
the outgrowth of years of persisteiit
and well directed effort, or of the
natural apward tendency of the
race. He felt assurred that his ill*,
favored Neighbor, whose partntage
was indifferent and whose surro und-
mg lias been could no
more become morally excellent than
he could bocomo intellectually great.
That he was as far removed from
Edwards* Malancthon or W esley,
morally,, as he was from Bacon or
Pjtt, or Biirke, intellect unify. That
he could no more emulate Baxtej: or
Brairtard in moraje, than be. could
rival He^iry or Otis in the fcu’um.
le was not sanguine of accomplisb,
ing greajt and striking results, but , be
was Rowing good seed that would
jlossQm and fruit after he had been
forgotten, • ,
According to bis theory, the chief
mcaifs of bonefitting adult s, was by
making their environments such as
would,grate least upon the rough
Bide bt their characters. To allow
the tiger to slumbir and to train tbe
lamb. To lesseu the fores and ef¬
fect of the bad ten leneies, b y avoid¬
ing aud removing tb e exciting c ause
and to cultivate an d strengthen
good elements in t/ieir natta res, by
every means at command.
As the years passeTl by Naucy
grew into beautiful and
grand ‘womanhood. She was fair
to loook upon; but her greatest beau
lay 1 in <hc goodness of her heart
aud the nobility of her nature. Her
m ind was evenly balanced, and die
was not liable to great or undue ele¬
vation of feelings, uo«" to causeless
depression. She inbentt d fine sen¬
sibilities and was capable of a high
order of mental aud moral enjoyment
and could also stiffef tfe*» most in
tense angiii^i. Her well balanced
brain; aud a disposition to take the
world for what it is worth, and
it is, and to make the most of it, ar¬
gued well for the future and gave
promise of a happy life.
She seconded her father in all his
efforts for the wellfare of their
neigbbars and scattered sunshine
wherever she went: No father ever
bestowed greater care upon a daugfi
ter, none was ever more richly re¬
paid for his earc and devotion, and
110 patent ever had cause to lie proud¬
er of a child. She was uit only
beautiful and gooa and refined, but
she was intellectual withal, Ah
though her father was a homeless
wanderer for several years during
her childhood, che had never known
wnut or l*c£ed for care. Petted and
w«. u- ***, 1
Her diepocition was *w«et, 30 J her
nature unselfish aud her lov# for
mankind a* boundless as tb« wide
earth. She was a friend to the
friendless, and never turned a deaf
car to the story of wrong, of suffer
ing and sorrow. No self denial or
.personal sacrifice was tod’ great
when the welfare and happiness of
others was at stake.
Pure an i lovely and good as Miss
Keller was, she was an object bf so¬
licitude to many. Strenuous efforts
were made to induce her to connect
bet self wi.li some one of the neigh¬
borhood churches, and while she
joined wil l them in every good and
noble work, she would no< subscribe
to their creeds, though making no
fight upon them, nor disputing their
general correctness.
She said “I care • nothing for
creeds and articles of faith written
in the dark ages, or when our ances¬
tors were struggbng ’ back into tbe
light. They may be well enough
but I have adopted my fathers creed,
and it is shorthand comprehensive; to
do good is my religion, I will keep
myself unspotted from the world, as
far as I can, I will visit the father¬
less and the widow, I will feed the
hungry and clothe the naked, oppose
wrong and defend right, do. all the
good I can with tbe IJghta befpre
me; in short I will live my creed and
have no . fear of the consequences,
either here or hercaftci.
Her somewhat unorthodox views
were condemned by the hypocritical
and regretted by the truly religious
but none doubted her sincerity or
goddntss of heart. The ministers
and controversial members oi the
church sometimes entered upon an
aigument withhei, but. were always
oeaten. Her logic was too keen foi
them, and she had a tact in showing
up what she called the iuconsist eu
cies oi their creeds and conduct, tha^
was extremely nnpled sant on'account
of their inability fo answer it to their
own satisfaction. ‘Besides ha r con
duct aud conversation, ofteir la id
bore the thoughts,-etntitio ns and im
pulses of a heart so unselfish; so bur*
dened With the spirit of Christianity)
that they were confounded and
« V j
put to shame.
;,Atlengili alV effort at converting
her to mote ortho 3o.v views was
abandoned. Her life tnd daily walk
and hei* labors in the interest of hu
raauiiy were orthodox on ough
whatever her creed might be. She
was the leading spirit in every
movement in which the ladies en-'
gaged, having for its object ibe ad¬
vancement of education, morals, or
the improvement of the neighbor
hood and count ry iu any way. In
f ac t pbe was the soul o! all such
movements, for none were so san¬
guine, so untiring, or so full of re
sco urces as she.
A woman so grand in nature
&o lovely in mind and person
as N: 1 < y L< in 1 . could not fail to
elicit til* admiration of all, nor could
she fait to excite a tender passion in
the bosom of many. She tv as beset
with admirers; many of whom were
doubtless attracted by’ her fortune
but 8G*»e were draw’ll to her by the
lovliness of her character. They
bovea her greatly 0 and caused her
much • disquiet, , J but failed - to . touch . ,
a respensive chord in-' her ■ -heart
Ev;ry womau raefets ber hero at some
time and with such women as
Keller, love is an all absorbing am!
ovrew helming passion, true as the
n cedle to the pMe, aud tuathlessas
the immortal soul.

It goes far tc reconciling me to be
ing a woman when I reflect that J
am thus in «o danger of ever
ing one.—Lady Montague.
