Some two weeks since a demented lady
was carried from this county to the
stale lunatic asylum, Messrs. C. H. Cun
yus and Dr. Harris, of Taylorsville, be
ing appointed as her guard on her trip.
From accounts in the Atlanta and Ma
con papers we see that it is charged that
the lady was shamefully treated by Dr.
Harris, who by the way is her husband.
The charge states that at Atlanta the
man violently struck the woman in the
mouth and bruised up her wrists. If all
that has been published is true the
woman was certainly badly treated and
nothing short of a thorough investiga

A BRAVE BOY.
What Tommy Brown Did to Protect HW
Little Brother.
He was only six years old, little
Tommy Brown. His father was a
pioneer out in Oregon. (Look on the
map, as always, and find Oregon, if
you don’t know where it is.) Pioneers
have discomforts and privations that
the people in older settlements do not
dream of. They are often twenty miles
away from any store. If any thing has
happened that they have not laid in a
supply of meat, flour and meal, and
these things give out at home, it be
comes a very serious business. If the
roads are snowed up, or if the mud is
so deep as to make them impassable,
there is a chance that the pioneer’s
family may go hungry; they may oven
starve. Provisions bad given out in
the family of Mr. Brown. There had
been a deep, soft snow, so the roads
were very bad indeed; but food must
be had, or his babies would have noth
ing to eat. So the father started with
his wagon to the store, twenty miles
away. He was a long time getting
there, for the road was so ~ -*
Mr. Brown wa gon, and
but a tremendous fall of
snow came and blinded him and
blocked his way. The storm continued
several days. The forlorn man stag
gered on as best he could, but it grew
colder and colder. He began to be
chilled through. Nobody knew what
finally happened to hint in those awful
hours, or what he thought about. For
he never came home. When the storm
cleared away, and people went to look
for him, they found him frozen stiff
and dead in the road. His wife was
dead, and his children had been left at
home alone to wait till he came back
with the provisions. What had be
come of them, poor babies? It had not
been so very cold when he left home,
and nobody thought any thing would
happen. There were two children,
Tommy and a younger brother, only
four years old. Their father would
have hardly dared to leave them, ex
cept that he had a beautiful and faith
ful shepherd dog. This noble animal
was used to taking care of the children
just as if they had been two lambs.
His name was “Shep.” He watched
and guarded them at play during the
hours when their papa was obliged to
leave them alone.
The little creatures and the faithful
dog waited all day for Mr. Brown to
come back. They went to bed, and to
sleep, and still the father was not there
next morning. They began to get hun
gry as the day w’ore on; but another
night passed, and the next morning
they were hungry indeed. They
thought they would go out and try to
find papa. They were not very warm
ly dressed, but out they went. They
wandered into the w'oods, Shep after
them. It was Sunday morning when
they left their cabin. They walked and
walked, and cried bitterly; but no papa
came. Shop hugged as close to them
as he could. There were wild animals
in the woods that would have attacked
and devoured the helpless babies, only
for Shep. He was as brave as a lion
and faithful as a father. Worn out at
last when darkness came, they huddled
down against Shep’s warm coat and
lay there. It is the greatest wonder
they did not die with the cold; but
they did not. Toward morning it
became warmer and began to rain.
How the poor things suffered when
morning came! They had no hope and
no refuge but Shep. They hugged him,
and cried together. They called till
they could shout no longer, but nobody
came. At last, the younger brother
said:
“Tommy, O Tommy, I’m freezing to
death!” Then what do you think this
brave, tender big brother did?—big
brother, though he was only six y&irs
old. He took his own coat off, all the
warm garment he had, and wrapped it
around the younger child. The rain
poured in torrents, and Tommy had
nothing upon his shoulders but a cot
ton shirt; but he bore it all, and pulled
j the coat close about his baby brother.
There is not the least doubt the little
i fellow would have frozen to death but
for this. So at last the neighbors
found them out at noon Monday, cud
dled down close together—Tommy, the
small brother, and Shep. A few hours
more, and both the children would
have been dead. But how much the
kind-hearted people made over them,
when they did discover them! There
was hardly any thing good enough for
those two whom the storm had left
fatherless. They will find plenty of
friends now. But Tommy Brown is
the bravest, noblest little lad I have
heard of in many a day. He is one of
the heroes of the world. — N. W. Chris
tian Advocate.
HOW CANDY IS MADE.
Facts of Interest to Our Young Readers
Concerning This Vast Industry.
How many of the boys and girls who
read the Christian Union know or even
think what a vast industry candy
making is in this country? An article
recently published in Harper's Monthly ,
written by Mr. R. R. Bowker, tells
us many interesting facta.
Curry’s Liver Compound is endorsed
by our most prominent citizens.
In 1880 there were in the Unit*
States 13,692 confectioners. In New
York City alone there are at the pres
ent time several large factories where
hundreds of boys and girls as well as
men and women are employed. It is
said that people employed in candy
factories are not fond,of candy—rarely
taste it after the first few days.
Stick candy is made by boiling down,
with water, ietter A sugar. Cream of
tartar is added to prevent crystalliza
tion. When it has reached the proper
consistency it is kneaded like bread on
a marble table, when the flavoring and
the coloring matter are added. It is
then “pulled,” as you have frequently
seen molasses candy when passing a
confectioner’s window. After it has
been thoroughly worked and drawn
into long sticks of the proper thick
ness, it is cut off by large shears into
the length of the penny sticks which
you buy.
Mr. Bowker in his article tells us
that—
“ Lozenges are rolled out like pie crust,
sometimes printed iu carmine with a haad
stamp, and then cut out with dies. ‘Sugar
plums’ and sugared alinouds are made in a
very Interesting w r ay, by throwing the nut,
seed, or other nucleus with boiling sugar Into
great copper pans, w hich are shaken by hand
or revolved by machinery over a hot Are.
Boiled over and over In the moist sugar, tho
plums soon begin to grow, and are * polished
off' by„each other, while, above, steam worked
fans carry off the dry dust. Gum drops are
made of gum arab c and sugar, boiled and
mixed, seven or eight hundred pounds at a
time, in huge copper steam-kettles, whence
tho mixture is taken out iuto smaller kettles
to be flavored and colored. Tho cheap gum
drops and ‘marsh-mallows’ aro now made
ohielly from glucose.’’
Glucose is made from starch, aud is
much cheaper than sugar, but is not
nearly so sweet. If you should at a
piece of pure sugar candy, and then
candy made principally of glucose, you
would readily detect the difference.
Glucose enters largely intothe manu
facture of marsh-mallows, and terra
alba into cheap lozenges.
Paris molds are uspji 'to lorm the cream
candies.. '“Urfrig various devices and
•Shapes. The sugar cream is poured,
while hot, into the little molds that
have been powdered with starch, aud
are then placed in a very hot room to
dry.
Mr. Bowker says:
“Cream or 6oft candies arc made in a simple
way, from sugar mixed with cream of tartar
to prevent crystallizing. To give them their
fancy forms, a flat tray is Ailed with starch,
which is pressed into molds by a scries of
plastor-of-Paris models —a drop, hand, face,
berry, or what it may be—arranged on a long:
stick. Into these starch molds the hot cream
is poured, and then allowed to dry. Somo
factories have as much as fifty thousand
pounds of starch iu this use. The drying
room is kept at a high temperature, iu which
the ‘creams’ soon become dry and solid. They
are then separated from the starch by huge
sieves. If they arc to be g os-od, they are
placed in huge tin pans and a cold solut on of
sugar poured over them to stand over night.
In the morning the ice of sugar on topis
brokon, and the ‘creania’ are found coated
with fine crystals. The liqueur drops are a
very curious product. The sirup is mixed
with brandy or flavored water, and is poured
mto the starch molds. As It cools at tho top
and on the mold, the crystals make a con
tinuous case, imprisoning the liquor w'ithiu.”
If you have a favorite candy store,
you would better test a part of your
next purchase for terra alba, a white
clay that will not dissolve in water and
is very injurious if taken into the
stomach. Colored candies are some
times poisonous, and green and blue
candies should be avoided. There are
safe vegetable coloring matters—burnt
sugar for brown, saffron f r yellow,
cochineal for red. These are not as
cheap as the mineral colors that are
used by many manufacturers.
Boys and girls who wish to make
strong, active men and women eat
sparingly of candy. It is bad for the
teeth, and, if eaten shortly before
meals, destroys the appetite for nour
ishing foods. —Christian Union.
Electric Buttons for Fire-Arms.
A luminous electric button has been
invented in France, automatic in ac
tion and applicable to any description
of iirearm. It is of the same size as
ordinary metallic buttons, and consists
of a line thread of platinum introduced
into a small glass tube, which is pro
tected by a metallic tube; a small open
ing is left in the latter, so that the lu
minous button is visible only to the
person using the weapon, to assist him
in taking aim, but is completely hid
from the enemy, or any one who is a
few feet from the barrel of the gun.
The device is operated by a hermetic
ally closed pile, this being about as
large as one’s little linger, and can be
secured ou the barrel of the gun, par
allel with the same, by two rubber
bands. As the pile operates only when
in a horizontal position, the button is
illuminated as soon as the gun is ad
justed for firing; but when the gun is
held upright, the pile ceases to oper
ate, and the button becomes dark, all
the advantages offered by the device
being realized, according to the inten
tion, in taking aim in the dark.—A. T.
Sun.
A Case of Indisposition.
Conversation between two Texas
journalists: “Haven’t seen you for
the last two days. Have you been in
disposed?”
“No, it’s my wash-woman who is in
disposed?”
“Is she very sick?”
“She is not sick at all. It’s me who
is sick becauso she is indisposed to
bring back my shirt.”
“I wish I hail a shirt that I could
send to the laundry,” was the mourn
ful reply of the other journalist, whose
coat was buttoned up close to his chin.

THE CHILDREN.
Handsome Dresses for Tittle Girls and
Misses—Some New Materials.
Among the newest materials for
dresses intended for summer wear are
the “tufted batistes” and “tufted
crepes,” which have ground in repre
sentation of the fabrics whose name
they bear, and they are respectively
with the crinkled and smooth surface,
with waste threads or tufts forming
checks or stripes in various colors.
Pekins, poplins and lawns are also
largely employed for children’s
dresses; also embroidered lawn\
zephyrs and batistes, with corded suit
ings, thistle ginghams and Aliciennes
seersuckers in the same colors and ef
fects as those from India.
For little children Pekin and
chequered washing material are em
ployed, but the pattern must be small
and the coloring delicate, and dresses
for girls under six years of age are
made with short, full skirts and long
bodices, plain at the back, but full in
front, and fastened down the left side
under a band of colored embroidery or
some other suitable trimming. This
band is carried to the edge of the
skirt and is crossed below the waist by
a similar band covering the join be
tween the bodice and tiro skirt. A
pretty dress in corded suiting in
cream, with variously colored threads,
is made after this style, and is trimmed
with bands of colored embroidery.
The bodices worn by misses are gen
erally long and many are tight fitting
at the back, but open in front over a
full plastron of surah, or else cut out
in heart shape, showing a gathered or
finely plaited chemisette, mounted on
a straight collar band. Bodices are
also adorned with yokes, rovers and
collars of velvet or some other materi
al differing from the dress fabric,y ith
bows and epaulets, ire ribbon, with
' shoulder tabs and other ornaments.
The most striking novelty of tho
year in children’s dresses is tho new
style of sleeve. This may be made of
a different pattern or material from
the bodice, or the upper portion, like
the bodice, comes to the elbow, and
the lower part, matching the trim
mings, reaches the waist. An illustra
tion of this style is a dress of boucle
striped canvas of string color, with a
full red satin vest and a red satin puff
to the sleeves from the elbow.
Biscuit is a popular color for young
people’s dresses, and it is well that it
is so, for that shade does not show dirt
or soil. A stylish frock in this tone has
fine horizontal cords like the old-fash
ioned striped corded muslins formerly
used for petticoats. The yoke and full
petticoat are of a material striped in
the same tone with blue and brown.
Navy blue canvas is a good, useful
stuff, light and capable of staudiug
plenty of wear and tear. One costume
in this fabric is made with a plaited
skirt, showing underneath what ap
pears lo boa petticoat of the same,
with red horizontal stripes. This has
been applied to the vest and also to
the front of a long jacket in plain blue
material, the collars and revers being
of red velvet and the sleeves of the
stripe. Some most elegant little toil
ettes for summer aie formed of silk
Warp and wool filling fabrics in cream,
the gipsy cloth and Clairette, in com
bination with pink, blue or garnet
surah.— Philadelphia Times.
THRILLING SIGHTS.
Pennsylvania Natural Gas Wells Firetl by
Flashes of Lightning.
The burning of natural gas wells in
Pennsylvania aro sights as thrilling to
the beholder as they are dangerous to
adjacent property. Recently one of
these wells took tire, and a volume of
flame shot up into the air for several
hundred feet with a velocity that was
astounding, showing that the pressure
of gas from beneath was something be
yond i omprehension. This well burned
for a long time in spite of all efforts to
shut off* the flamo. It was finally done
by means of a huge extinguisher,
which was advanced slowly to tho
mouth of the well and then raised ver
tically. thus shutting oft' the air and
smothering the flame.
A few days since, one of these wells
was set on tire in a very curious man
ner. The workmen had drilled down
until gas in small quantities was found
'jo arise through the boring. A sudden
storm came up, the atmosphere became
thick and prevented the gas from ris
ing freely. The workmen anticipated
trouble, and hastily departed from the
well. They had scarcely got to a safe
distance when a flash of lightning ig
nited the gas in the atmosphere over
tho well; flames instantly communi
cated to the well itself, the result be
ing that the gas in the lower regions
was released, and shot upward with a
terrific flame to a height of two hun
dred feet or more. The well burned
for several days, the column of flaming
gas mounting into the air and lighting
up the surrounding country for miles.
Another well was struck at the same
time in another section of the oil re
gions, and was burning for a long time,
threatening adjacent property. Fires
occurring in the products of the oil re
gions, whether gas or oil, are extreme
ly difficult to extinguish, and the
amount of property lost in consequence
of them is immense.— Fireman's Jour
nal.

for Colonel Bibly.
Boy —Wliat are you going to do with
it?
Father—l am going to keep it and

Boy—How can you when you write
it yourself?
Father—My son, nearly every speech
a man makes contains utterances that
will ruin him in politics. I tell you
that cold print is worse than poison.—
