The SiiuiT-Oolored Suit.
‘ I scarcely knew how it btippeued, but ,
a timber must have fell and struck me
on the head.
The first thing that I realized after it,
was that I was straight and still on
something hard and when I tried to
move myself 1, found it impossible to do
bo. I concluded that I must be in some
very tight, dark place, for I could not j
sec; in fact I soon learned that, though
perfectly conscious, I could do nothing
but hear. A door opened and footsteps
approached; but 1 felt a doth taken
trom my face, and a voice which I rec
ognized as that of Mr. Jones, the father
of my wife that was to be—said:
‘He hasn’t changed much, 1 and his
companion, whose voice I knew to be j
the village undertaker, Hopkins by
name, said lightly:
‘Better looking dead than alive. How
does Jcruspa fed about it? Take on
much?■
• Till, no, she had her eye on another
fellow, anyhow, and a better match,too,
excepting tho money part. Tuongh I
had nothing against Ben. only he liidn’t
know much, and was about the homeli
est man I ever knew. Such a month:
why it really seemed as though he was \
going to swallow knife, plate, and all,
when ho open and it at dinner. 1
‘Wall,‘said the sheerful voice of Hop
kins, 1 lie’ll never open his mouth again;!
and then lie proceeded to measure me j
for my coffin, for it seemed that I was !
dead, or they thought I was, which was j
all the same to the greedy pocket of the j
undertaker. I had heard ~f undertak
ers who always whistled joyfully when
they got a measure, but I never believ
ed it before. lint that man actually
whistled a subdued dnneing-tm t while
he measured me, and if seemed to me
I hat three or four icicles were rolling
down my hack,to the music of his whis
tling.
His duty done, they covered my face
again and left mo to my own reflections
which were not particularly comforting,
although I had often heard it remarked
that meditation was good for the soul,
and this was the best chance I had ever
had to try it. *
.4li hour must have passed when the
door again opened, and two persons
came whispering along to where I lay,
and the voice of my promised wife fell
upon my ear.
‘I dread to look at him, Bob; lie was
so mortal homely, alive, he must he
frightful dead. 1
I ground my teetli in imagination, as
I remembered how often she had gone
into raptures, or pretended to, over my
noble brow and expressive month; and
how that she often declared that if I
were taken away from her she would
surely pine away and die.
One of them raised the cloth, and I
knew they were looking at me.—Bob
was her second Cousin, and I knew he
was that ‘other fellow,’ whom her father
had mentioned.
‘Seems to me you don’t feel very bad
about his dying,‘ilusba,° remarked Bob,
meditatively.
‘Well, to tell the truth, said my bi •
I trothed ‘[don't care a pie*t deal about
it. If he had lived I should have iniir
j ried him, because he w as rich and father
wanted me to: but I was getting about
sick of my bargain, for I knew I should
always be ashamed of him, he looked so
much like a baboon.
‘But you loved him, 1 remarked Bob.
‘No, I didn't! My affections were
wasted long ago upon one who never
returned my love; 1 and my fast-fading
idol sighed heavily.
They had covered my face by this
tima, and were standing a few steps
from where I lay.
‘About how loug ago, liusha?'—ask
ed Bob.
‘A year or such a matter, 1 with anoth
er deep sigh, which ended in a fit of
sneezing.
‘About the time I went away ?‘ inter
rogated the cautious Bob, coughing a
little.
‘Well, yes.some'cr near, 1 assented my
dear affianced.
•Now, Jerusha, you don't mean to in
sinuate that I—‘
‘I don't mean to insinuate anything,
Bob Smith! 1 and the angelic sweetness
of her voice somewhat sharpened.
‘Now, see here, Kusha. I‘ve loved vou
ever since yon were Itn "• high to a g>-
pher, but I thought wneu you c : ue
home t lat you was sweet on that other
chapjbnt I swan I believe you liked me
all the time!‘
A COUNTRY NEWSPAPER FOlt THE MASS! S-DEVOTED TO CIVILIZATION AND MONF.Y-MAKINO.
TALBOTTON, OA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 10,1875.
‘Oh, Bob !‘ said my-to-be, in a gush
ing sort of way
‘.l/ine own Jeruslia! 1 remarked Bob.
Then I heard a subdued rush,accom
panied by violent lip explosions. 1
tried to kick or grate my tooth, or do
something to relieve my outraged feel- <
ings but not a kick nor a grate could 1
raised. It was an awful tire to he in, !
but I had to stand it,so I laid still and J
let them alone until they got tired of it,
and then they went out,and I was again j
left to my own pleasant reflections.
Night canto,mid so did a lot of young
fellows with their girls.to sit up with
me ; and they had a jolly time of it. al
though it was against my principles to j
enjoy it on so solemn an occasion.
It seemed an age until morning, but
it came at last and they went aw av. 1
heard them say that I was to be dnried J
that day tit two o'clock and I was bo- i
ginning to feed decidelv shaky wlicfi '
Jeruslia and her mother came into the
room and began arranging for the fun
oral.
‘Jeruslia, 1 said her mother, here is i
that, snuff-colored suit of poor Ben’s ; of
course he will never have any more use
for clothes,so just put them away among j
your carpetrags ; they’ll make a splen- \
did stripe. 1
Now that particular suit of clothes
was just the neatest one I ever owned,
arm holes,wristband,buttons,all just the
thing,and my blood boiled to hear them
talk so coolly of using them for stripes j
in a rag carpet. They kept on talking i
as they swept,dusted and cleaned up
the room.
‘Bob says he will take the Martin farm i
to work this year,’ said Jerusha, cheer- j
fully :‘and as soon as wore married!
we’ll go to houskeeping i.i that little :
cottage close to the road Now I must
get my carpet done just as soon as pos
sible,for I want it in that nice ltttle
front room. —These duds of Ben's will
make out enough rags, I guess. His
folks live so far away lin v will never in
quire about his clothes. Now .if itwasu i
for the looks of it we could ask old
.Mother Smith about coloring yellow
she's sure to be here torday.’
I was getting very mad now, indeed.
1 felt Urn' the crisis was ucar.and that 1
should either die or explode if they did
not let my snuff-colored suit alone.
Jerusha picked them up T knew it, foi
I heard the buckle sand buttons jingle
and iii iii for the door. I tried to
shake my list and yell at her, but all in
vain. I laid there,outwardly as quietly
as a lamb,inwardly boiling with wrath.
It was too much ; tho deepest trance
could r it h ive held out against tho loss
of that suit. With a powerful effort I
sprang up and screamed. Jerusha
dropped my clothes and her mother the
Ulster,and both fled from the room and
from the h*>use,..over stopping till they
reached Dr. Brown's across the street.
With difficulty I managed to get my
clothes. I had just got them fairly on,
when Mrs. Jones and her daughter, fol
lowed by a numerous company oi men,
women and children,came peering cau
tiously into the room. I sat on my
board and looked at them. Such a
scared looking crowd was enough to
amuse an owl,so I laughed ; I knew it
was unbecoming,but t couldn’t have
helped it if they hid chucked me into
mv coffin—which the undertaker was
just carrying past the window—and
buried me the next minute. I laughed
tul I jarred the chair out from under
one end of the hoard,and down I went
with a crasii. Then the doctor ventur
ed into the room,laying rather dubious-
ly t
‘So you are not dead yet, Ben ?‘
‘ Well,no,not exactly,’ I replied, ‘sorry
to disappoint my friends about the fun.
oral,however.’
‘Yes ‘ lie said, rather absently, ‘bad
rather—that is—ahem!‘
‘Fooled out of that s .tuff-colored stripe!’
I thought,as I looked at Jerusha.
‘Go and speak with liim.‘ said her
father,in a staid whisper, ‘He‘s got the
stamps,and you had better mary him
after all. 1
They began to gather around me and
congratulate me on my escape.—l no
tice that they cried a great deal more
now than when I was dead. Jerusha
oarne and hung around my neck,.snivel
ing desperately. I gave her a not over
gentle push,and told her to wait next
time until 1 was safely buried before she
set her heart on tny old clothes.
‘Oh, lam so glad ?‘ she said sweetly,
without appearing to notice what I said
about the clothes—“that you are not
dea 1,/fenny,dear. My heart seemed till
withered and broken to see you lying
ail cold and white. I wept bitterly ov
er your pale face,my beloved.
'Yes.' 1 replied, ‘I heard you and Bob
taking on terribly. It was a lucky die
for me.‘
‘Could you hoar?‘he gasped.
'I rather think I could, sonic,' 1 re
plie 1.
She looked toward the door, but it
was crowded full,so she made a dive for
the open window ;aud went through it
like a doer. .S’he shut herself up in the
smoke-house,and would not come out
until after 1 had left the ho use.
/lob would not fill his promise of
marriage with his cousin because she
tried to make up with me again ; so she
is living a life of single hi ssedness.
YY'liile lam writing,my wife is cutting
up my snuff-colorcd clothes to make a
stripe iu anew carpet for our front
room.
Yin'itui (lie Moon.
At last,however,night sets in. Grace
fully it comes after the sun has gather
ed up his smiling beams,and gone down
to his rest. All at once we are plunged
info comparative obscurity, for again
there is no twilight to stay the steps of
departing day. At one stride comes
the dark. But,looking up into the sky,
we behold a vast orb, which pours down
a milder and more beneficent splendor
than tlte great lord of the system. 7t is
such a moon as we terrestirals cannot
boast; for it is not less than thirteen
times as large and luminous as our
own.
There it httflgs in the firmament,with
out apparent change of place,as if “fix
oil in its everlasting seat.’ But not with
out change of surface ; for this greate

Ten Rules tor Farmers.
We ask all our farmer friends to read
and practice the follow ing rifles for one
year, and then tell us whether they arc
sound:
1. Tako good papers and read thorn.
2. Keep an account of farm opera
tions.
3. Do not leave implements scattered
over the farm, exposed to snow,rain and
heat.
4. Repair tools aim buildings at a
proper time and do not suffer subse
quent three fold expenditure of time and
money.
5. Use money judicsously, and do not
attend auction sales to purchase all kinds
of trumpery because it is cheap.
ti. See that fences are well repaired,
and cattle not. grazing in the meadows,
or grain fields.
7. Do not refuse to make correct ex
periments, ill a small way, of many new
things.
8. Plant fruit trees well.euro for them
and of course get good crops.
9. Practice economy by giving stock
shelter during winter; also good food,
taking out all that is unsound, half rot
ten or mouldv.
10. Do not keep tribes of cats or snar
ling dogs around the premises, who eat
mere in a month than they are worth
ill ft lifetime.
Don't Do /i.— Don't expect a limn to
practice all he proachcH.—Eminent phys
icians will n>t swallow their own nos
trums.
Don't imagine that y >u are better than
your fellow. There are in reserved seats
in Heaven.
Don't h-t your wealth inflate you. Rich
men somethin s die of small pox.
Don't expect your pastor to be per
fect. Charcoal will mar the beauty of
the lily.
Don't, eat fish for brain food. Aln n
never scratches for chickens before they
ale hatched.
Don't nuke a noise in the world. A
train is not moved by the sound of the
whistle.
H urt spend too much time in adorn
ing your person. A wax figure ain't
recite the multiplication table.
D 'lPt dream that your child was b irn
to ad ail a profession. You can't main
i fence post out of a shoe peg.
D >n‘t expect an editor to bo very de
votional oil Sunday, livery .Saturday
night there is the “devil to p.uy“ at
the office.
Doffit fill your liend with dime novel.
Old papers are worth two cents per
pound.
M.VONIFV’r.NU THK FAAxfsß's f'AI.T.INO
There is a vast amount of Rcntiinentiii
twaddh spoken and written with the
intent to magnify the farmer's vocation.
It is sickening. The vocation of the
farmer is good or had for him, is digni
fied or the reverse, just in proportion
as ho makes them so. A man is nobet
tor and no worse for being a farmer.
A man is a man wherever lie is
placed, and if be is a real man he di; -
nifies any place in which lie is put and
any business lie pursues. 7f he is an
indolent, shiftless ignorant fellow, no
vocation will give him his dignity or
worth. 11, is well en uigli to magnify
one's vocation, but it cannot and n vir
lias been done by words, however e!o
quent. It is what the man does, not
what lie boasts of doing or being that
gives him and his position character and
commands for him and it the respect
of others. /I is well to remember this
and not rest upon other people's opin
ion of tin) dignity of a pursuit for one's
anrels.
A Foutunatt Escape.— A letter from
Richmond Va., dated January 20, says :
Yesterday a lot of rather wild girls
accompanied bv a young man of this
city wens out cn the top of the Capitol
to view the prosp'eta o'er. The youth
either to give more room to the ladies or
to show his daring stepped off the plat
form to the roof outside the in n rail
ing. One of the young ladies playfully
pushed him,when he slipped and fell,
and in falling caught bold of her dress
and drew her on to the roof also. Tlio
roof was covered with slippery sleet, and
both commenced sliding down to the
eaves,going.as they and their compan
ions believed to a dreadful death in a
fall to the earth far below. But Provi
dence interposss for the. salvation of cer
tain people perpetually,and a chimney
was found t,o be in the direct line of
their decent,against which they lodged
in safety until they could make arrange
ments for a ci reful return to the plat
form.
It has been ascertained tliat, the river
Nile rises about five inches every oen
i turv and relics of past times have been
: found at a depth of sixty feet below the
surface. Hence it. must have been at
! least, ten or twelve thousand years since
| the first rtcttlemeut of Egtpt.
