A Queer Society.
Says a New York correspondent:
“Twelve members of the York Masonic
Lodge of this city organized last year a
society which they styled ‘The Mortal
Twelve of York.’ Its members are:
Frank J. Griffith, Assistant Superintend
ent of the Delaware Lackawanna and
Western Railroad; William Scott,
Freight Agent of the New York and
New Haven Steamboat Company; Col.
T. JB. Montgomery, Thomas Keating,
Ha rry Gurley, Edward Ganong, Robert
W'aarton, Lewis W. Walton, Edwin A.
Q nick, J. J. Shay, J. Hunt, and Fred
f* Jine. The initiatory fee is $5, and the
■ Annual dues are sl. No'other members
•can be admitted, and no person not a
member can attend any of the meetings.
“There is to be a regular meeting of
the society every year on the evening
of the second Wednesday of October, at
which a dinner is to be served. On the
death of any member, according to the
by-laws, a special meeting must be
called, and the sole object shall be to
discuss the virtues of the deceased
member, be they many or few. Should
they be few, then each virtue is to be
discussed so much the more thoroughly,
for his shortcomings are not to be men
tioned. A rosewood case, divided into
twelve compartments, with a cut glass
bottle in each compartment, containing
a quart of sherry, and on the outside the
owner’s name, has been deposited in the
vault of a safe deposit company, to be
taken out only when some member of
the society dies. On that occasion the
case is to be opened in the meeting, and
the wine in the bottle bearing the name
of the departed member is to be drank
by the others in silence. Then the
bottle is to be returned to the case, to
gether with the date of the owner’s
death and other information concerning
him.
“On each succeeding similar occasion
all of the bottles, the full and the empty,
are to be set before the surviving mem
bers, and the contents of the one bear
ing the name of the member last de
ceased drunk in silence. It is provided
in the by-laws that tho last surviving
member, on the death of his solitary as
sociate, should discuss by himself the
virtue* of the departed man, and drink
of the wine in the bottle bearing his
name, ‘and he shall thereafter each suc
ceeding year, on the date set apart for
the annual meeting, have the box and
contents placed before him, and then
and there shall partake of the remaining
bottle or bottles as far as his judgment
allows or dictates, until the same shall,
if possible, be disposed of. ’
“The twelfth man is enjoined, before
his death, to bequeathe the case, its con
tents, a copy of the society’s by-laws,
and a synopsis of its history, to his heir,
or any other person as he may feel dis
posed, enjoining him to guard and
hand down the same to succeeding gen
eration*.”
Country Boys in New York.
While foreign emigrants are landed
here in daily crowds, there is also a vast
rush to this city from all parts of the
Union. A large element in this is com
posed of country boys, some of whom
are seeking employment, while others
have run away from home and come
hither to spend their money. It is esti
mated that the number of these run
aways averages 300 per week. Theatri
cal mongers are continually beset with
applications from this class, many of
whom are stage struck as soon as they
attend such places of amusement. A
few days ago, for instance, a youth was
arrested while trying to make an engage
ment. He was only fifteen, and had ab
sconded after robbing his parents, who
live in the West. Such youth generally
go to ruin with fearful rapidity. Tljey
become the pals of pickpockets and other
thieves, who “give them away” in order
to save themselves, and this explains the
great proportion of youth among our
criminal classes. New York is at best a
poor place for young people, but under
such circumstances the dangers of the
city are fearfully increased. — New York

tne constant application of a glove
stretcher during the day, and by hold

world the leaders of fashion wanted to
declare large mouths the Style for, the
heavens only cab tell. Take a pretty
face, and mortice out about a third of
the front of it for a mouth, and it seems
to us as though it is a great waste of the
raw material. There is no use that a
large mouth can be put to Miat a small
mouth would not do better, unless it is
used for a pigeon-hole to file away old
sets of false teeth. They caiVt, certain
ly, be any better for kissing. You all
remember the traveling man who at
tended the church fair at Kalamazoo,
where one of the sisters would give a
kiss for 10 cents. He went up and paid
his 10 cents, and was about to kiss her
when he notioed that her mouth was one
of these largo, open-face, cylinder
escapement, to-be-continued mouths.
It commenced at the chin and
went about four chains and three
links in a northwesterly direction,
then around by her .ear, across un
der tho nose and back by the other
ear to the place of beginning, and con
taining about twelve acres, more or less.
The traveling man said he was only a
poor orphan, and had a family to sup
port, and if he never came out alive if
would be a great hardship to those de
pendent on him for support, and he
asked her as a special favor that she
take her hand and take a reef in one side
of the mouth so it would be smaller
She consented, and puckered in a hand
ful of what would have been cheek, had
it not been mouth. He looked at her
again and found that the mouth had be
come a very one-sided affair, and he said
he had just one more favor to ask. Ho
was not a man that was counted hard to
suit, when he was at home in Chicago,
but he would always feel as though ho
had got his money’s worth, and go away
with pleasanter recollections of Kalama
zoo, if she would kindly take her other
hand and draw the other side of her
mouth together, and he would be con
tent to take his 10 cents’ worth out of
what was left unemployed. This was
too much, and she gave him a terrible
look, and returned him his 10 cents,
saying: “ Do you think, sir, because you
are a Chicago drummer, that for 10 cents
you can take a kiss right out of the best
part of it ? Go! Get thee to a nun
nery,” and he went and bought lemon
ade with the money.— Peck's &'an.

As the hot days of summer draw near
people are debating the question,
“Where shall I go for a trip?” It has
been fashionable for a year or two to
visit the Northern lakes or mountains.
Tneae resorts are very pleasant in hot
weather, hut they have serious draw
backs. . First, it is very expensive get
ting there and back again. Then it is
still more costly to remain, as one j
should, until Southern frosts; for if one
returns home during the malarial season
he is much more liable to suffer the
effects of the poison than he would have
been had he remained South all summer.
Then their distance from business and
other connexions is an objection. All
these can be avoided and more than
equal benefit secured by the expendi
ture of less than half the time, money
and preparation necessary for a North
ern trip. We have within easy reach a
resort whose claims have been before
the public fifty years and never been
rivalled or disputed. In all that minis
ters to health or pleasure it is the peer
of any place in the United States, and
its charges are very reasonable. Rail
roads give its visitors excursion rates.
We refer to Bailey Springs, Ala., Ellis
& Cos., proprietors. In addition to its
merits as a pleasure resort, its power to
cure all diseases of debility, poverty of
the blood, nervous dropsy,
scrofula, dyspepsia, and especially di
seases of the kidneys or bladder, is truly
wonderful. Write to them before mak
ing other arrangements. A postal card

Prejudice Kills.
“Eleven years our daughter suffered
on a bed of misery under the care of
several of the best (and some of the
worst) physicians, who gave her disease
various names but no relief, and now
she is restored to us in good health by as
simple a remedy as Hop Bitters, that we
had poohed at for two years, before
using it. We earnestly hope and pray
that no one else will let their sick suffer
as we did, on account of prejudice
against so good a medicine as Hop Bit
ters.”—The Parents.—Telegram.

How to Behave at a Party.
I remember that when I was quite
young going to a party was nearly as
much a trial to me as a pleasure. Being
diffident, 1 dreaded entering the room,
and encountering the eyes of the people
already assembled there; and once fairly
in, I was overshadowed all the evening
by the dreadful necessity of, by-and-by,
retiring. Besides, I felt a sense of re
sponsibility which was very oppressive,
and was so afraid of not doing or saying
what was expected of me that I moved
and acted awkwardly, and no doubt
looked perfectly miserable.
Perhaps some of you inav have had
experiences similar to mine. Now let me
tell you that I have lived to laugh at my
foolish shyness, and to be very sorry for
boys and girls who suffer from the same
thing. When you are invited to a com
pany, tho first thing in order is to reply
to the invitation. This is polite , whether
you accept or decline, and it is impera
tive if you decline. Send your answer
as soon as possible, in some such simple
phrase as this: “ Harold,” or “Florence,
thanks Mrs. for her kind invitation
for Thursday evening, and accepts it
with pleasure,” or “declines it with real
regret,” as the case may be. Arrived at
your friend’s house, you will be directed
to the proper place for the removal of
your wraps, and the arrangement of
your toilet, and then you have only to
proceed to the parlor, where your hostess
will relieve you from embarrassment by
meeting you at once. She is, of course,
the first person whom you are to greet.
Having spoken to her, you are at liberty
to find other friends. Do not think that
people are looking at you, or noticing
your dress or your looks. They are do
ing nothing of the kind. Engage heartily
in whatever amusement is provided for
the occasion, but do not put yourself
needlessly forward. If spoken to, reply
modestly but intelligently, even though
for the moment there may be a hush in
the room. If you really wish to enjoy
yourself, seek out somebody who seems
to be more of a stranger than yourself,
and try to do something for fiis or her
pleasure. Forget that you are not ac
quainted with everybody, and remember
that it is your duty to help your hostess
in making her party a success. Should
your greatest enemy be present, you
must, of course, be perfectly civil and
agreeable in your manner to him, for in
your friend’s house you are both under
a flag of truce.
When you say good night to your en
tertainers, be sure to thank them for the
pleasure you have had. Do not stay too
late, but avoid being the first to go; or
if you must leave early, do it as quietly
as possible, lest your withdrawal should
be the signal for others to leave, thus
breaking up the party too soon. — Har
per's Young People.

A workingman says : “Debt, poverty
and suffering haunted me for years,
caused by a sick family and large bills
for doctoring, which did no good. I
■was completely discouraged, until one
year ago, by the advice of my pastor, I
procured Hop Bitters and commenced
their use, and in one month we were all
well, and none of us have been sick a
day since ; and I want to say to all poor
men, you can keep your families well a
year with Hop Bitters for less than one
doctor’s visit will cost.” —Christian Ad

increased prostration and sinking chills. At this time I began the use of your Iron Tonic, from which I re

waa not permanently abated. 1 have used three bottles of the Tonic. Since using it I have done twice the la
bor that I ever did in the same time daring my illness, and with double the ease. With the tranquil nerve
and vigor of body, has come also a clearness of thought never before enjoyed. If the Tonic has not done the

Scott’s Patent Horse Power
The work of four mules doue by two.
Save your horses and mules by obtaining
the right to use on your gin or mill or other
machinery Scott’s Patent Improvement on
, Horse Power. This remarkable invention
of the undersigned patentee, was patented
August 17th, 1880, and is now for the first
time offered to the public. It is simple,
useful, durable, and takes oil of your horses
about one-half of the draught of your gin or
other machinery, and is so cheap that every
man that has machinery will not grumble at
the price but be perfectly delighted and
wonder why the world has been so long in
discovering it. No humbmr, but the pat
entee is an old citizen of Benton county,
Miss., with his post-office at Ashland, Miss.,
to whom apply for fuither information.
Only six pieces lumber 2x7 inches, 12 feet
long, and three pounds 20 penny nails, re
quired to put on above improvement.

An Open
SecFeto
The fact is well understood
that the MEXICAN MUS
TANG LINIMENT is by far
the best external known for
man or beast. The reason
why becomes an “open
secret” when we explain that
“Mustang” penetrates skin,
flesh and muscle to the very
bone, removing all disease
and soreness. No other lini
ment does this, hence none,
other is so largely used or
does such worlds of good.
