An Uncle In Kansas.
In tlie Central passenger coach, some
time ago, in a seat directly in front of
the writer, sat a young boy and girl,
who appeared unusually intelligent and
wide-awake. The hoy, especially, had
a quick eye for every event that took
place, and was not afraid to ask ques
tions of any who came within speaking
distance. Suddenly in the midst of an
indifferent conversation with the writer
he asked:
“Have you ever been West?”
Being informed that such was the
case, he seemed interested, and the
following somewhat remarkable dia
logue occurred:
••What kind of a State is Kansas for
business?” .
“Bather good I should think? why?
“Good State to start a grocery store
in, think?”
SCIENCE.
FARM AND GARDEN.
Recoil of Gum.—An apparatus for
ascertaining the recoil of guns during
the first instants after the charge is
fired, has lately been brought before
the French Society for the Encourage
ment of National Industry by M.
Sebert. It is termed a velocimeter, and
consists essentially of a strip of flexi
ble steel, soot-blackened on its upper
surface, and capable of being pulled in
a horizontal slide, by a steel wire con
nected with the gun on the carriage.
Above it is a tuning-fork (with arms
parallel in horizontal direction) kept
vibrating electrically. This can be de-
pressed so that a small steel style on
one of the arms comes in contact with
the strip, and as the strip is pulled
along in the motion of the recoil the
style produces a wavy trace, form
which the velocity of recoil at each mo
ment can be accurately deduced (the
rate of vibration of the fork being
, ,. , known). M. Sebert adds to the appar-

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Okra.— This vegetable, so highly
favored in the South, so healthy, nutri
tious and ot easy culture. Is totally un
known to thousands of Northern fami
lies, while a Southern dinner—in sea-
son—without if, would be considered
incomplete. Served as soups, with
green corn and tomatoes it has no equal:
nor lies it when stewed, fried, or pre
pared in many other ways. It is also
cut In rings or sliced and dried for win
ter use. The Okra is a tender herbac
eous annual, resembling the Hollyhock
plant, bearing its flowers and edible
pods, like if, in the axils of the leaves.
The flowers, also, in shape and size, re
semble that of the single Hollyhock.
Its color is a creamy white, and it is
related to both the Hollyhock and the
Cotton plant. The culture of Okra is a
simple field culture, and since it feeds
principally on mineral matters, it re
quires as fertilizer but six hundred
pounds of good wood ashes or four hun
dred pounds of some good commercial
fertilizer to the acre. The soil for
Okra should be light and warm. It

Baked Chicken Pie.—To make the
crust, use one-half a pound of butter to
every pound of flout, and three tea
spoonfuls of baking powder; chop one-
half of the butter into the prepared
flour until it is well mixed in; add a
little ice-cold water and work it into a
stiff dough; roll it into a thin sheet and
spread on one-half the remaining but
ter; fold it up, butter side in, and re
roll it; then spread on all the butter,
fold again as before, and roll out thin;
cut in the size required for the pie.
Line the bottom and sides of a well-
buttered earthenware cake pan or pud
ding dish with the crust; then to a 'large
tender chicken add almost half a pound
of salt pork. Have the pork chopped
fine, and lay on one layer of pork; pep
per it, using no salt, and cover with
pieces of chicken; then another layer
of pork, and so on until all the chicken
is used up. Have three hard-boiled eggs
chopped up and added with the chick

place a few small lumps of butter about
the top, and add water enough to make
as much gravy as may be desired.

A Wise Judge.
It has been said that a District Judge
in British India requires the firmness
of a European and the cunning of an
Asiatic, an axiom fully borne out by
the following authentic anecdote:
Shortly before the mutiny of 1857, a
young officer of the English line, while
passing through a native village was an
noyed by tho importunity of a Hindoo
beggar, whom no rebuff seemed to dis
concert. At length when the old and
filthy vagrant, seconded his petition by
laying his grimy hand upon the Eng
lishman’s arm, the latter, unable to
control himself any longer, repaid the
freedom with a straight-forward blow
from the shoulder, delivered with such
hearty good will that the poor Hindoo
fell like a log, to all appearance stone
dead. Before the assailant could re
cover from his bewilderment at this
unlooked for catastrophe, a howling
swarm of natives came rushing to the
spot, and with frantic cries of ven
geance upon the murderer of their
countryman, dragged him off to the lo
cal magistrate, carrying with him as
evidence the corpse of the slain man.
Matters might well look gloomy for
the prisoner, for the body showed not
the slightest sign of life, while the cul
prit lnmself, overwhelmed with horror
at the fatal consequences of his mo
mentary passion, faltered and trembled
in a way that would have made an or
dinary Judge convict him on the spot.
But, happily for him, the magistrate
was a veteran, whom no contretemps,
however unexpected, could find him
unprepared. He heard the story to an
end witkout a word of comment, and
then quietly remarked that before pass-
i ng sentence he wished to be quite cer
tain that the man was really dead. The
Hindoos broke in with a- terrible out
cry at the idea of the sacred remains
being touched by an unbeliever. “Oh,
I dou’t need to touch him 1” quoth the
Jndge. coolly; “I have a surer way
than that.” Without appearing to no
tice the look of uneasiness that began
‘o cloud the surrounding faces, he drew
forth a stick of sealing wax, lighted it,
and let fall the burning drops upon the
bare breast of the corpse. Instantly
the murdered man started up with an
ear piercing yell, and tossing his arms
frantically, rushed out and plunged
headlong into the river, while his in
consolable mourners vanished almost
as quickly in the opposite direction
the Mediterranean from the deserts of
Africa. A microscopic examination of
the particles ought to settle tbe ques
tion.
Millstones made of glass are a Ger
man novelty. Eight pieces of glass of
equal size are used as nuclei; a counter
piece of granite is bound to the outer
lorm with cement. The advantages
claimed are that they run easily, grind
cool, and produce finer, lighter flour
than French burrs. But a few are in
actual operation.
harrowed in. As soon as soil and
weather get warm enough to plant corn
and beans, the land is laid off in rows
three feet apart, and tbe seed—having
been pfeviously soaked—is planted from
four to six Inches apart, according to
its quality. It would be proper here to
remark that the seed does not germin
ate fieely, and under unfavorable con
ditions, such as cold, wet weather, it
will frequently rot in the ground. As
soon as the plants are three inches
high, thin to eighteen inches. All
that is now requisite till frost is a clean,
shallow culture. As soon as the pods
have attained two-tiilrds of their full
size, they are ready for gathering.
This is done at first once a week; later,
twice, aud when the plant is in full
bearing, as often as once a day, in order
not to allow the pods to get too old and
tough. The pod is in proper condition
for gathering when it breaks easily
from the stalk, or when its point breaks
when held under a light pressure of
the thumb. ’The rough, hairy surface
of the plant is very irritating and pro
duces a burning sensation, and per
sons with tender skins, when gather
ing Okra without gloves, frequently
get swollen hands from its effect.
Where the skin is exposed, this burn
ing may be partly or wholly relieved
by bathing the hands in strong salt
water.
To Tell the Age of Fowls.—If a
hen’s spur is hard and the scales ot the
legs are rough, she is old, whether you
see her head or not; but her head will
crorroborate your observation. If the
under bill is so stiff you cannot bend it
down, and the comb thick and rough,
leave her, no matter how fat and plump
for someone less particular. A young
hen has only the rudiments of spurs;
the scales on the legs are smooth, glos
sy and fresh-colored, whatever the
color maybe; the claws tender and
short, nails “harp, the under bill soft,
and the comb thin and smooth. Anold
turkey has rough scales on the legs,
callosities on the soles of the feet, and
long, strong claws; a young one the
reverse of all these marks. When the
feathers are on, the old turkey cock
has a long tuft or beard; a young one
but a sprouting one, and when they are
off, the smooth scales on the legs decide
the point, besides the difference in size
of the wattles of the neck and in the
elastic shoot upon the neck. An old
goose when alive is known by the rough
legs, the strength of the wings, parti
cularly at the pinions, the thickness
and strength of the bill, and fineness of
the feathers; and when plucked, by
the legs, the tenderness of the skin un
der the wings, by the pinions and the
bill, and the coursences of the skin.
Ducks are distinguished by the same
means, but there is the difference that
a duckling’s bill is much longer in
proportion to the breadth of the head
than the old duck’s.
Baked Cod or Haddock —Take
cod or haddock of five or six pounJy-
keep the bead on fish; do not have it
opened too deep; make a farcie or stuff
ing of half pound ol bread crumbs, a
teaspoonful of very finely-divided par
sley, a teaspoonful of salt, a saltspoon-
ful of ground pepper, a half teaspoon
ful of mixed thyme and marjoram; take
two, eggs, beat them up all together,
add a teaspoonful of butter, mix all
thoroughly and fill in the fish with it;
if necessary, tie the fish up with a
string: bake slowly in a pan, larding
with a little butter from time to time;
about an hour and a half will cook the
fish.
Extra GoodCookies.—One-half cup
of butter, one cup of white sugar, one-
half teaspoonsul of saleratu3. Melt the
butter, mix all soft together with a
spoon, and set away for one-half hour
in the winter, and one hour in summer,
where it is cold. Then the dough can
be easily rolled without adding very
much flour (the less the better),
sprinkle the dough after rolling with
sugar, cut, and bake in a quick
oven, watching carefully. The ingre
dients mentioned in this recipe make
two dozen cookies. Add caraway seed
it liked.
Cheese Toast.—Take half a teacup
of grated cheese—use crumbs and dry
pieces—mix with it a teacupful of grated
bread, the yoke of one egg, a spoonful
of butter, three spoonfuls of rich cream,
pepper and salt and a little mustard, if
liked; toast some slicesof bread, spread
the mixture on it, place in a quick
oven for three or four minutes and
serve hot.
Barley Soup.—Wash and soak one-
fourth pound of barley in a quart of
water over night; in the morning turn
off the water not absorbed and add
three quarts of boiling water; a tea
cupful of bread crumbs, and salt to
taste; boil slowly four or five hours;
add a teaspoonful of butter aud a little
chopped parsley half an hour before
serving.
Learn to Swim.
We have heard some enthusiasts de
clare that a child ought to be taught to
swim as soon as it can walk; and,
without going quite so far as this, we
may say that it is desirable In both
cases that the tuition should, if possible,
begin at an early age. In some parts
of the south of Europe along the shores
ot the Mediterranean—owing, no doubt,
to the absence of tides and currents, to
the greater warmth of the surface
water, and to a smooth sea—swimming
is much more generally practiced than
with us; and it is surprising to see the
diminutive little urchins who take to
the water like ducks, and seem to
think nothing of a swim of several
hundred yards. In Malta, during the
summer season, the buoy9 in the Dock
yard Creek are constantly surmounted
by naked youngsters, who find in them
convenient supports to clamber up,
and from which to take another plunge
into the sea; while every man-of-war
or large ship that enters the harbor is
immediately surrounded by a crowd of
boats containing boys of all ages, who
eagerly ask in broken English that
money may be thrown into the sea lor
them to dive for, and who, if their re
quest is complied with, plunge over
board, and rarely fail to secure the
coveted coin. There is no reason why
any average individual of either sex
should fail, we will not say merely to
familiarity with the water at once pleas
ure and safety. It is a great mistake
for a man to stop when he has acquired
the power of swimming a few yards.
Let him persevere until he can swim
far if not fast; let him learn how his
newly acquired art may be made avail
able, should the necessity arise, to save
the life of a fellow creature with the
minimum of risk to himself. Lives not
a few are sacrificed every year because
men, who are perhaps fair average
swimmers, and who, relying on their
skill in this respect, cannot allow a fel
low man to drown before their eyes
without an effort to save him, have yet
never practiced diving or learnt how to
approach a drowning person. There is
one particular form of swimming, too
and the one which is perhaps the most
practically useful, to which amateurs
as a rule give little heed—we mean
swimming in clothes. There are many
men, who are perhaps tolerable swim
mers in ordinary bathing costume, who
would feel themselves terribly over
weighted by their garments in the event
of being capsized when boatsailing.
And, of course, clothes are an incum
brance, especially at first; but a good
swimmer ought to be able, if time and
circumstances permit, to rid himself of
some of the heavier portions of his rai
ment in the water, and it is astonishing
how far and how fast it is possible
after a little practice to swim in ordin
ary morning costume. Even a heavy
pair of shooting boots is notan insuper
able obstacle.
The Question of Weeds.— Every
good farmer knows that to insure satis
factory crops his land must be culti
vated in tbe best manner, and if it is so
cultivated, few weeds will be found up
on it. Sometimes, even upon well-
managed farms, afield here and there,
owing to adverse weather, a shortness
of hands, or a rush of work generally,
may be neglected for a few days, and
the weeds may get a start; but this
happens rarely, and an observing man
can always judge of tho character of a
farmer by glancing his eyes over his
premises. If the weeds are not to be
regularly and systematically destroyed,
tne idea of conducting agricultural op
erations profitably may as well be aban
doned, for the one is incompatible with
the otner. And even this is more
pointedly so with the garden. Weeds
and a garden crop are as antagonistic
as life and death. They cannot stand
upon the same platform. One must be
master, and it is for the owner to say
which. If a garden is systematically
worked—and withoutsystem nogarden
is worth having—the labor of keeping
down the weeds is reduced one-half.
But let them once get ahead, and they
may be fought all summer and prove
victorious in the end. Again, let no
weeds go to 9eed; and do not throw in
to the public highway such as do, to be
wasned down upon the land of your
neighbors.

Silver Cake.—One cup of butter,
two cups of sugar, whites of seven
eggs, one cup sweet milk, two cups
flour, one cup cornstarch, two tea-
spoonfuls baking powder. Cream the
sugar aud butter, add the milk, and stir
in gradually the flour and cornstarch,
in which the baking powder has been
sifted. Stir in the well-beaten whites

Oatmeal Porridge.—Into one quart
of perfectly boiling water, Into which
a small teaspoonful of salt lias been
added, stir one teacupful of granulated
oats, (cost, 4 cents), and let them bail
actively for two hours. Boil them in a
double boiler, and ilo not take off the
lid or stir them until the very last,when
they may be stirred thoroughly and
poured into a mould.
WIT AND HUMOR.
A Painful Scene.—While seven or
eight old and reliable citizens were
holding down chairs and boxes in a
Michigan avenue grocery, and unani
mously agreeing that this was tbe
greatest country bn earth, a stranger
entered and said:
Gentlemen, I suppose you are all
familiar with politics.”
We are,” they replied in chorus.
And you know all about the funda
mental principles of liberty?”
We do.”
Well, I’m glad on it, for I’ve made
a bet with a feller hack here as to how
the reading of the Constitution begins.
One of you just write me down the first
ten words.”
While he felt for a stub of a pencil
every man began scratching his head
and cautiously eyeing his neighbor.
One began muttering: “Now I lay me
” and a second said something about
“Resolved,” and a third wrote on top
of a cracker box: “On motion, it was
voted that—that .” There was a
great deal of coughing and sneezing and
nose blowing, when a boy came in and
said the stranger’s horse had run away.
He rushed out, and seven faces bright
ened up and smiled, and seven men
took fresh chews of tobacco, and tried
not to look too important when the
grocer said:
“The Constitution? Why, every
one of you can repeat it by heart,
with your eyes shut—of course you
can,”
The Difference.—Snodgrass placed
a couple of coin dollars in the palm of
his hand, and showing them tohis wife,
who had just purchased some ceramics,
asked:
Mrs. Snodgrass, can you tell me the
difference between these dollars and
those pieces of pottery?”
“Why, certainly, my lord; those
dollars are silver and alloy, while
these ceramics are kaolin and petunce.”
“Yes, but that isn’t the right an
swer,” said Mr. Snodgrass. “Tbe dif
ference is that these are my bottom
dollars, aud those, my dollars bought
'em!”
Mrs. Snodgrass gave her husband a
very piercing look, and then wept copi
ously. ^
The rigid observance of English
rules in South Carolina Courts, and a
neglect of the same on the part of Mr.
Petigru, gave rise to the following pas
sage :
“Mr. Petigru you have on a light
coat. You can’t speak.”
Petigru replied: “May It please the
bench, I conform strictly to the law.
Let me illustrate : The law says that
the barrister shall wear a black gown
and coat, and your honor thinks that
means a black coat?”
1 J‘Yes,” said the judge.
“Well, the law also says the sheriff
shall wear a cocked hat and sword.
Does your honor hold that the sword
must be cocked as well as the hat?.”
He was permitted to go on.
Mrs. A.—“Somebody’s in the next
room. I wonder what they’re doing.”
(Looking wistfully at the keyhole).
“I’ve a good mind to peep.” Mrs. B—
“Oh, 1 wouldn’t; t’isn’t right.” Mrs.
A.—“I don’t care; I’m just dying to
know.” (Puts eye to keyhole, but im
mediately takes it away, disconcerted).
“H’m the key is in.” Mrs. B.—“Yes,
so 1 found before you came in.”
The following startling announce
ment was given out by the parish clerk
in a small church in Somersetshire re
cently, where the rector has divided his
labors between two churches: “I gers
notice nex’ Sunday there wun’t be no
Sunday, ’cause rector’s goin’ to t’other
parish flshin’.” By this the accustomed
congregation understood that the cler
gyman would be officiating in another
parish a few miles oft.
Oyster-Breeding la China.
SUMMERJVIUSIC BOOKS!
Like so many peculiar things In the
Celestial Empire, the'system of breed
ing the above-named bivalve differs
widely from that pursued in Euoope or
America. In the southern part of
China “collectors” of bamboo are
placed in the oyster beds, much after
the same fashion as the elaborate tiles
and “hives” employed in France. Those
oyster-catchers are, however, prepared
in a curious manner. The canes are
exposed for about two months to the
rays of the sun, and then placed a simi
lar period in salt water, after which
they are dried for several days, the ob
ject being to preserve them trom decay
and prevent the twisting or warping of
the bamboo. Notches are then cut In
the canes, into which empty oyster
shells are fixed, like so many cups, and
thus prepared they are driven into the
the seashore between high and low
water mark, and left standing to catch
the young spat. Those localities are
considered best where the rise and fall
of the tide is the greatest, so that the
bivalves may be alternately covered by
the flood and exposed to the air on the
ebb. There the young oysters thrive
well and develope rapidly, and are
quite ready for market when they are
two years old. A large trade is carried
on by the persons pursuing thecalling,
and who have many thousands of these
collectors planted in favorable situa
tions, and some successful breeders
have been known to realize large for
tunes. In China large quantities ofthe
oyster are dried Instead of being eaten
in a fresh state. For that purpose they
are taken from the shells, simply
plunged Into boiling water, and then
removed at once, after which process
they are exposed to the rays of the sun
until every particle of moisture has
evaporated. In that state they will
keep for a length of time, and are said
to preserve all the delicacy of their fla
vor. Tu'e finest and fattest bivalves,
bred and fed on the leaves and cuttings
of the bamboo, are selected for pre
paration by that method, those taken
from the natural being inferior in
quality, and not sufficiently plump to
ptand the operation.

Turn the Wick Up.—Some persons
are in the habit of going to sleep with
the wick of the lamp turned down
low. It is a most unhealthy practice.
The gas which should be consumed
by tbe flame passes into the atmos
phere. Only good oil should be burned,
and the wick always raised to a proper
height.
A Great Enterprise.—The Hop
Bitters Manufacturing Company is one
of Rochester’s greatest business enter
prises. Their Hop Bitters have reached
a sale beyond all precedent, Laving
from their intrinsic value found their
way into almost every household in the
land.—Graphic.
Utility of Toads.—A writer notices
tbe fact that many gardeners already
appreciate the valuable services of com
mon toads tor their insect-destroying
propensities, and afford them protec
tion, while as many more, perhaps are
ignorant of their usefulness, To the
latter class it should be known that
toads live almost wholly upon slugs,
caterpillars, beetles, and other insects,
making their rounds at night when the
farmer is asleep—and the birds too—
and the insects are supposed to be hav
ing it all their own way. English gar
deners understand these facts so well
that toads are purchased at so much a
dozen and turned loose, and the best of
it is the toads generally stay at home,
so the gardener is not troubled with
buying his own toads over again in a
few days. The toad can be tamed, and
will even learn to know its master, and
come when called; the writer has not
only had such, pets himself, but could
give other instances of toad taming that
have come under his observation.
Teads can be made very useful about
the house, and will do not a little good
in destroying eockroaches, flies, and
other household pests. They are some
times known to eat worms, which they
grasp by the middle with their jaws,
jamming in the wiitbing ends of the
unfortunate articulates by means of
their front feet. Insects are seized and
conveyed to the mouth by means of the
rapid darting tongue, which always
secures the victim as it is about to fly
or run away.
Many places along the sunny sides of
fences might he utilized by the plant
ing of sunflowers. The large headed
kinds are very profitable for feeding to
poultry. The seeds are coarse and full
of oil. We feed sunflower seeds and
cracked corn and rye.
Johnny Cake.—Take a pint of sour
milk, break an egg into it, stir in a tea
spoonful or two of flour, and add Indian
meal enough to make a thick hatter;
put in a teaspoonful of salt, stir in five
minutes, then add a heaping tea
spoon tul ol soda dissolved in hot
water; then bake in a pan or on a grid
die.
Cocoanut Candy.—Two cups granu
lated sugar (seven cents), half cup of
water; boil for six minutes, add one
grated cocoanut. (nine cents); as soon
as the sugar is soft, spread in white,
greased payers, and when cold, cut in
small squares; sixteen cents for one
pound.
French Mustard.—Slice ai onion
in a bowl, and cover wi^h good vine
gar. After two days pour off the vine
gar; add to it a teaspoouful of cayenne
pepper, a teaspoonful of salt, a table-
spoonful of sngar, and mustarc enough
to thicken; mix. Set on the stove and
stir until it boils. When cold it is fit
for use.
Black lead is excellent to lessen
friction between two pieces of work.
The sides and rest9 of desks or bureau
drawers may be made to move easy by
preading common stove blacking even
ly with a cloth or the Auger over tlieir
surfaces. Time and patience may thus
be saved.
The main point in successful tree
planting is to select medium sized trees,
so as to secure good roots. Keep the
roots from exposure to sun and wind
wnile hauling, take pains in setting
and mulch liberally.

A Modern Medical Miracle
is without doubt tbe discovery of “Anakesis’
by Dr. Silsbee, an infallible remedy for the
most painful aud exasperating of all diseases
Piles. 600,000 once afflicted mcrtal-i gladly
attest tbe virtue of Anakesis and suffering
Millions joyously bail the hope of relief. The
Biu.ple, rational, common sense nature of this
marvelous discovery of a cure so »afe, ea-y
and certain fra disease so painfal an J per
sistent has excited the wonder of the people
and admiration of medical men. it is the re
sult of 40 years experience by a distinguished
scientific physici n. This really great remedy
combines the soothing system ofthe English—
mechanical method of the French and the
heroic medical custom of American Surgeons.
“Anakesis’' therefore affords almost instant
relief from pain, keeps up the law sensitive
tumors aud both by pressure and medication
cares the most inveterate cases of piles. It
has stoo i the critical test of 20 years use
against the coils of ignorant imitations and
unscrupulous empiricism, over half a million
of persons have used it and ■on 6 ' without
benefit. Doctors of all schools prescribe!' as
tbe neareet to an infallible remedy poseiole.

A painter and professor of the fine
arts recently said to one of his pnpils:
Your picture is not quite up to the
mark; your composition is too much to
the left of the canvas; besides the ex
pression of the head of the principal
figure is a little strained. I may add
that this arm seems to me to be rather
long.” The pupil answered: “But
j*ou must consider, sir, it is not var
nished yet.”

A clergyman who had just per
formed a wedding ceremony, and was
filling out a blank description of the

“I am a wine merchant and a shoe

“Yes,’* chimed in the bride; “so
you can set him down as a sherry-cob

Adolphus: “What is that noise,
darling?” Darling: “Oh, it’s only
papa. Ever since he read in the papers
of actions of breach of promise of mar

about cracking his horsewhip.” Adol
phus : “Oh 1 (Pauses reflectively). Well

A man tried to get into Barnum’s cir

The Naughty Pup.
Just after sunset a bright-faced little
girl, attended by a playful black-and
tan pup, was at the pump at Seventh
and Walnut streets. Near by, on the
curbstone, were two sparrows chirping
cheerily*. The pup made a dash at
them, and much to his delight one of
them was unable to fly. It was a young
one, the other was the mother. Seeing
the danger of her young the old bird
resorted to the usual devices to attract
the enemy to pursue her, throwing
herself upon the ground in front ot
him, fluttering almost in his face and
crying in distress. Thoroughly excit
ed and somewhat confused the black-
and-tan dashed first at one and then at
the other. The little girl's heart was
touched for the birds, and calling at
the pup, she started in pursuit of him.
Dog, birds and girl, for awhile all
greatly excited, were flying here and
there about the gutter, now on the
pavement and again on the street. Fin
ally, ju't as the pup pounced upon
the young bird, Lis little mistress seiz
ed him and drew him into her arms.
For an instant it seemed the young bird
eavod, bat th#* poor thing was
frightened nearly to death, and, espy
ing the sewer-opening in the curb it
flew in and nothing then could save it.
The little girl’* eyes streamed with
tears; she scolded and gave the pup
an affectionate sort of beating, and put
ting his head near the opening, said in
most distressed tones, “See what you
ave done, you wicked, wicked iittla
dog; you have drowned the poor little
bird, you have drowned the poor little
bird !’* and w r hen the mother fluttered
around, looking and crying for her
young, she burst into fresh tears and
cried as if her heart would break. A
number of people witnessed the inci
dent and there were no dry eyes on the
scene except those of the pup.

Ghosts.
Not Col. Ingersoll’s “aristocracy of
the air,” but real human ghosts. Ghosts
hat were once healthy men and women,
out are now simply the “ghosts of what
they once were.” As we meet them,
and inquire the cause of all this change,
they repeat the old, old story, “a cold,”
“neglected cough,” “catarrh,” “over
work,” or “dysyepsia,” “liver com
plaint,” and “constipation,” with un
successful physicians and remedies. In
offering his Golden Medical Discovery
and Pleasant Purgative Pellets for the
cure of the above affections, Dr. Pierce
does not recommend them as a “sure
cure” in all stages. For if the lungs be
half wasted away, or there b« a cancer
ous complication, no physician or medi
cine can cure. The Discovery is, how
ever, an unequaled pectoral and blood-
purifier. It epeedily cures the most ag
gravated cough, or cold, and in its
early or middle stages, consumption.
By correcting all irregularities ot the
stomach and liver, it readily cures
blotches, pimples, scrofulous ulcers,
“bunches,” or tumors. Hundreds tes
tify that it has restored their health,
after eminent physicians had failed.
For constipation, use the Pellets. As a
local remedy for catarrh, use Dr. Sage’s
Catarrh Remedy.
