PosTMASTER GENERAL Vinas last

had admitted that he purchased two

crease his apparent sales of stamps,
and consequently his salary, a prac

congratulation that we now have an

to account for such peccadilloes.

MOODS AS A TEST OF CHARACTER.
1 have found moods to be very poor
tests of character. Having cut through
the crust of a most forbidding mood,
produced by bodily derangement or
constant and pressing labor of the
brain, I have found a heart full of all
the sweetest and richest traits of hu
manity. 1 know men whose mood is
exceedingly pleasant. There is a
glow of health upon their faces. Their
words are musical to women and
children. They are cheerful and
chipper and sunshiny, and not casily
moved to anger; and yet I know
them to be liars and full of selfish
ness. Under their sweet mood which
sound health and a not over sensi
tive conscience and the satisfaction
‘of sense engender, they conceal hearts
‘that are as false and foul as any that
illustrate the reign of sin in human
natuve.— Ecchanye. :
I WORTH OF A GOOD NAME.
A man of very pleasing address
but very dishonest in his practices,
once said to an honorable mer
chant :
“I would give fifty thousand dol
lars for your good name.”
“Why so?’ asked the other in
some surprise.
“Because I could make a hundred
thousand dollars out of it.”
The honorable character, which
was at the bottom of the good name
he cared nothing for ; it was only the
reputation, which he eould turn to
account in a money point of view,
which he coveted. |
But a good name cannot be bought
with silver; it of all other posses
sions, must be fairly earned. When
it is posséseed it is better business
capital than a great sum of money.
It is a fortune any boy or girl may
secure. Honesty must be its founda
tion, even in the smallest particulars.
When an employer says: “There is
a boy I can trust,” that youth will
find himself in demand provided he
joins industry with honor. “The
hand of the dilligent maketh rich.”
It seems hard at the time, perhaps,
to be bound to a ceaseless round of
work, while other boys are lounging,
or playing on the green, but the re
ward will come if you are faithful.
While idlers are dragging out a mis
erable life-time in privation and pov
erty, the hardworking boy lives at
his ease, respected and honored.
Remember that if you desire to
make your way in the world, there is
nothing that can secure your purpose
like a name for honesty and indus
try ; and you will never acquire eith
er if you are a loiterer about the
streets, and neglectful of your busi-§
ness. “A good name is rather to be
chosen than great riches, and loving
favor rather than silver and gold.”—
Golden Argosy.
A NOBLE GIRL.
World of Life,
A young man called, in company
with several other gentleman, upon a
young lady. Her father was also
present to assist in entertaining the
guests. He did not share his daugh
‘ter’s scruples against the use of spirit
‘uous drinks, for he had wine to offer.
"l'his was poured out, and would have
‘been drunk, but the young lady ask
ed:
“Did you call on me, or papa?”
Gallantry, if nothing else, compell
ed them to answer, “We called on
you.”
“Then will you please not drink
wine, I have lemonade for my visi
tors” :
The father urged the guests to drink,
and they were undecided.
The young lady added, “Remember
if you call on me, then you drink
lemonade, but upon papa, why, in ‘
that case, I have nothing to say.”
The wine glasses were set down
with their contents untasted.
After leaving the house, one of the
party exclaimed, “That was the most
effectual temperance lecture I have
ever heard.”
The young man from whom these
facts were obtained broke off at once
from the use of strong drinks, and
holds in grateful remembrance the
lady who gracefully and resolutely
gave him to understand that her
guests should not drink wine.
PUSH. ‘
If there was more push in the
world there would be fewer hungry,
half clothed, homeless, suffering chil
dren, fewer broken.down, dissipated
men and women ; less need of alms
houses, houses of correction, homes
for the friendless.
Push meansa liftfor a neighbor in
trouble. Push means a lift for your
self out of the slough of despondency
and shiftlessness, out of trouble, real
or fancied. Push never hurts any
body. The harder the push the bet
ter, if it is given in the right direc
tion Always push up-hill—few peo
ple need a push down hill. Don’t be
afraid of your muscles and sinews;
they were given you to use. Don’t
be afraid of your hands;they were
meant for service. Don’t be afraid
of what your companion may say.
Don’t be afraid of your conscience ;
it will never reproach you for a good
deed—but push with all your heart,
might and soul, whenever you see
anything or anybody that will be bet
ter tor a good, long, strong, determin
ed push.
Push! Tltisjust the word for the
grand, clear morning of life; it is just
‘the word for strong arms and young
hearts ; it is just the word for a world
that is full of work as this is. If any
body is in trouble, and ‘you see it,
don’t stand back, push !
If there is anything good being
done in any place where you happen
to be, push !
| MARRIAGE IN ILLINOIS.
| Arkansaw Traveler.
Many of the settlers of Illinois
were rude in speech and rough in
manner. Money was scarce with
them, and service was paid for in pro
duce. Governor B——— illustrated
these incidents of frontier life by the
following anecdote :
One day there came to his office a
young man accompanied by a young
woman.
“Be you the squire?”’ asked the
manly youth. ; -
“Yes, sir.” |
“Can you tie the knot for us right
away ?”’
“Yes, sir.”
“How much do you charge.?”
“One dollar is the legal fee, sir.”
“Will you take your fee in bees
wax ?’
“Yes if you can’t pay the cash.”
“Well, go ahead and tie the knot,
and I'll fetch the wax.”
“No‘” said the ’squire, thinking
‘there was o good chance for a little
% fum ; “bring in the beeswax first, and
‘then I'll marry you.”
~ Reluctantly the youth went out to
‘where was hitched the horse, upon
which, Darby and Joan fashion, they
had ridden, and brought the wax in a
sack. On being weighed its value
was found to be only sixty cents.
“Wal,” said the anxious, groom “tie
the knot and I'll fetch more wax next
week.”
“No, sir, I don’t trust; that is
against the rule of this office.” |
Slowly the disappointed youth turn
ed to go out, saying, “Come, Sal, let’s
go.”
“I say, mister,” answered Sal, with
a woman’s wit, “‘can’t you marry us as
far as the wax go?”
“Yes, I can and will,” replied the
'squire, laughing ; and he did.
WHAT IS GOOD BREEDING. ;
Genuine good breeding is simply a
general walk in life which always
avoids giving unnecessary pain, which
sinks itself, and which is uniformly
kind to all people. A factory girl in
this sense may be, and often is, as
well bred as a princess. The very
height of good breeding is to behave
one’s self properly, and there are
millions of hard-working matrons and
maidens who can do that, and much
more than that. The flowers and the
fun, the frolics and the fairy-like
abundance ofenjoyment which wealth
can purchase, are often, it may seem,
unequally divided. But good breeding
the art of always being frank and yet
dignified, of patient self control, of
thought for ot"ers, of kindness to all,
is as general as the gift of a heart.
A duchess, in the best sense of the
term, 18 no more well-bred than a
milkmaid, if the latter has a gentle
mind and disposition.— Waverly.

Story oF A CycLoNeE Prr.—Unecle
William Cole, living near Dallas, re
cently dug him a cyclone pit, which
his good wife utilized for putting her
soap barrel in. The other day a
whirlwind passed through his place
and raised a considerable dust, which
caused him to gather his family to
g>ther and run with them to the pit.
Arriving there he jumped- headfore
most into it. His little son, who was!
following him, halted and turned to
his mother and excitedly exclaimed :
“Ma, pa’s into the soap barrel up to
his ankles!” “She replied, “Oh, well,
sonny, if he’s no deeper than that
he can get out!” 'The little fellow
replied, “Yes, but his head’s turned
the wrong way !”—Dallas New Era.
DipN’'t Keep His Movte Suur.—
A Mongol fable is as follows: Two
geese, when about to start southward
on their autumn migration, were en
treated by a frog to take him with
them. On the geese expressing their
willingness to do so if means of con
veyance could be devised, the frog
produced a stock of strong grass, got
the two geese to take it, one by each
end, while he clung to it by his mouth
in the middle. In this manner the
three were making their journey suc
cessfully, when lhey were noticed
from below by some men, who loud
ly expressed their admiration of the
device, and wondered who had been
clever enough to discover it. The
vainglorious frog opened his mouth
to say, “It was 1,” lost his hold, fell
to the earth, ahd was dashed to pieces.

WANT A BIG OPPORTUNITY.
One reason why so many men go
through life without accumulating a
moderate fortune is because they are
always on the lookout for a big op
portunity. They have no time to
waste in small things. They are
thinking about organizing stock com
panies to operate mines and start cot
ton factories. A small industry re
quiring only a few hundred dollars
start is beneath notice. Yet these
despised little industries pan out sur
prisingly. The Nashville Union tells
of a man in Nashville who, about
eight years ago, patented a method
of twisting one small wire around
another for the purpose of producing
seals for protecting freight car doors
from being tampered with while en
route. Starting with a small shop,
a four-horse power engine, and al
most no capital, this man, his son,
and two or three boys have now all
the work they can do. They use two
tons of wire a month, and receive
orders for from 25,000 to 150,000
seals at the time. One road uses
100,000 a month. The leading roads
of the United States, Canada and
Mexico by their seals of the Nashville
shop. And yet the invention scems
such a mere trifle. It consists of six
inches of wire, and a piece of lead the
size and thickness of a nickel, and
the mude of twisting the wire. The
merit and convenience of the inven
tion has been pushed along.
A Turkry StorYv.—Mr. W. F.
Shuman, of Lowndes county, has
been bothered by wild turkeys.
They have been systematically enter
ing his corn field, for some time past,
and destroying the budding corn.
Under the game law of the county he
could not shoot them, but he found
where they came in and out, and, one
day, finding them in his field he slip
ped round and set up some umbrella
ribs in their path. Slipping back he
shot off his gun and shouted to give
them a fright. His plan succeeded.
They ran at a great speed to get
away, and four out of the five in the
bunch killed themselves against the
ribs.

My legs for seven years were one
solid ulcer from my knees to my ank
les, I had the best medical treatment
that could be had in the state of Ohio,
but this horrible disease resisted all
the efforts made. The pain and loath
some odors became almost intolera

Swift’s Specific. It has worked won
ders. I commenced to take S. S. S,
the first of January, 1884, and hpve
taken 33 large size bottles. To-day
my legs are sound and well as they
ever were, and 1 am truly grateful
for what it has done for me. In fact
I would not take $lO,OOO for what it
has wrought in me, because I honest

ally growing worse, losing the septum
of the nose almost entirely with a
cancerous ulceration. He had given
up in despair when he was persuaded
by me to try S. 8. 8. He used ten

S. 8. S, as a Lotion.
Mr. R. O. Bean, passenger agent
on the Mobile and Ohio railroad,
writing trom Miss.,says:
“I have seen Swift’s Specific used
as a wash for ulcers and pimples with
the most gratifying results. As a
blood purifier it drives the poison to
the surface, and then used as a wash,
it absorbs and drys up the sores. 1
have seen it used in cases of blood
poison, and skin eruptions, and these
diseases disappear in one-half the
time that it ordinarily takes by the
usual method.”
Mrs. Oliver Hardman, of Monroe,
(ra., who has had a cancer cured on
her face says: “I used Swift’s Spe
cific as a wash in the treatment of
my cancer with remarkable success.
I sponged the sore with the medicine
diluted with a little water. It soften
ed the scab, cooled the face and re
lieved the itching sensation.”
We have received assurances from
others of the excellent character of
the medicine as a wash, in cases like
those referred to above. We give
this information as we received it,
leaving every one to test the matter
for themselves.
