LIFE ON THE FARM.
Story Told by a Pale and Sad Young

Guiteau’s Curse.
The attempt at suicide made recently
in New York by Charles II. Reed, one
of Guiteau’s counsel, and the subse
quent announcement of his present ill-
fortune, has brought to mind the curse
es. I have come away, and the f made by (fuiteau, when he received
farm which knew me would perhap
know me yet if it could get a sight of
me, but it can’t.
“I went out, you know, by the advice
of a physician. Said he: ‘You need
outdoor exercise, and above all, sleep;
such long, quiet nights’ sleep as you
can only find in the country away from
the noise and heat of the city, with the
great open windows and the cool and
velvety breeze floating through jour
room all night long, with perhaps an
occasional night with the pattering rain
upon the roof to lull you to sleep.’
That’s what the doctor said.
“So I hired out to a farmer to work
a.’ Hammer. He said I was so white
ana pale that he couldn’t give me any
thing but my board for my services,
but if I wanted to work for that I might
•climb in behind the seat and ride out.
“So I did. He had one male and one
horse, and the mule balked every time
we went up hill and the horse every
time we went down hill, and they both
tried to ran away on the level. He
drove them with a trace chain tied on a
white ash ax helve.
“But we got there at last. I don’t
want to tell you anything about the
work to-day—I haven’t time—but I feel
as if I must say something about those
long nights’ sleep.
“The first night we got home late,
but still the sun was only nicely down.
The sun sets about two hours later out
there than anywhere else in the known
world.
“After supper the farmer spent one
hour and a half telling me about the
flax crop on the back farm and then he
reckoned we’d better milk. There were
twelve cows and he said each would
take six. He gave me kickers, and it
took me two hours, and it had been
dark a long time when I finished. Then
he had me pump up water for the next
day. And it took forty minutes. Then
I filled the wood box and split the kind
ling wood. And as it was a big box it
took thirty minutes. Then he told me
about the oat crop, which took an hour.
And when I went to bed it was growing
light in the east.
“The window in the room was a pane
of glass nailed over an irregular hole in
the boards and could not be opened. I
felt around in the dim light and finally
got into bed. I had just fallen asleep
and had begun to dream I was lying
along the ridge-pole of a double hump
ed camel when the farmer pounded on
the stairs with an old broomstick and
said bi’eakfast. was ready. I couldn’t
see as it was any lighter than when I
went to bed, though the sky in the east
was a little redder.
“I will pass over the day, as it is pain
ful to recall. Or rather the day and
the last end of one night and first end
of another, for we were in the hay field
sixteen hours.
“And that evening after supper he
said I might throw the dirt out of a new
cellar while I rested.
“Then we milked, and he gave me
eight cows instead of six—all kickers.
And one of them was a hooker, too, and
slammed me through the corn crib.
“I got to bed an hour sooner than the
night before, because he said he was
thinking some of getting up early the
next morning.
“And that night it rained, and I heard
the pleasant patter of the rain on the
roof that that old fraud of a doctor
spoke about. But it didn’t lull me to
sleep, because it leaked down on me
and got the bedclothes all wet and I
caught cold.
“And when the farmer pounded on
the stairs I got up and looked at my
watch, and I had been abed an hour
and forty minutes. And my clothes
were wet and there was water in my
shoes.
“But it was a good day and we work
ed at the hay again. We mowed down
what the fanner called a ‘slather’ of it.
And that night after I had rested
awhile on the cellar and milked the
twelve cows—twelve kickers—one of
them thought I was trying to kidnap
her calf and chased me out of the yard.
The farmer said it looked like rain
again, and he reckoned we’d better go
out and cock up that hay before bed
time. . „ ,, x
“And before we got to the field I saw
the morning star, and when I had got
up twelve bunches of hay and the old
hypocrite of a fanner four, I heard a
lark. Then when I had up twenty-
four bunches and the farmer six it be
gan to grow quite light.

his sentence, upon very one connected
with the trial. The jury was composed
of twelve strong and healthy men. The
foreman was in comfortable circum
stances, and was estimatad to be worth
850,000. Within a year after the trial
he lost his money, and is now reduced to
the level of a day laborer. Four other
members of the jury are dead, and
nearly every one of the others has been
visited with some kind of misfortune.
District Attorney George B. Corkhill
was removed from office, his wife died,
and his own death followed within a
few years after the trial. Mr. Scoville,
Guiteau’s brother-in-law, who with
Charles H. Reed defended the prisoner,
was divorced from his wife and lost all
his property. President Arthur, who re
fused to grant a pardon to Guiteau,
was defeated for renomination and
slowly failed in health and died. Last
winter Mr. Blaine, who was a witness
against Ghiiteau, was nominated for
President but defeated. John A. Logan,
another witness, is now dead, stricken
down in apparent health. Dr. D. W.
Bliss, Garfield’s physician, has been in
very poor health for two years, and it
is thought that he will never be a
well man again. David Davis, who ap
peared as a witness, has also joined the
great majority. The guard who kept
watch over Guiteau in the jail have
nearly all lost their positions. Judge
Cox, who presided over the trial, lost
his wife. The only conspicuous excep
tion is Walter Davidge, of the Govern
ment counsel in the case. Mr. Davidge
has apparently been more prosperous
since the trial than before. He stands
at the head of the Washington bar.
The defeat of the Republican party in
1883 was predicted by Guiteau.

0 years.

crown, but two were too bright for
earthly glory; hence, the angels pluck

decorate the crown of the King, immor

when the sun goes out at night, leaving
the earth enshrouded in darkness; but
heaven receives additional light. One
fountain of mortal joy has dried, but
one fountain more of immortal joy has
opened wide. O, ye heart-broken pa
rents, look up ! Beliold two additional
diamonds decorate the crown of a lov

brow with fever be scorched; no more
writhing in pain, no more rolling in ag

midday weeping. But He whose love
is stronger than the parent’s for his
first born hath taken these two lovely
jewels to adorn His mansion beyond
the skies, eternal in the heavens, where
soon you may join them, and where
disease, death, pain nor partings are
not known. O, merciful Father! pre

stricken family for a glorious home be

Help oometh from the Lord;
So siiith His blessed Word.
He is full of kindness and of love,
Looking down from above.
O, His happy, smiling face,
Full of love and pardoning grace,
I need His eye to guide my feet,
His grace I love to repeat.
His glory rolls from sea to sea;
Satan and sin before Him flee;
He carries the keys of death and hell;
Before Him down Apollyon fell.
O, be His name adored ev’ry day,
By those who walk the narrow way.

this life at the home of her mother, in
Can-oil county, Ga., August 2d, 1887—
aged 14.
Deceased was the youngest daughter
of the late J- W. Carter, of Carroll
county, and was one of the loveliest
and most interesting girls I ever met.
She was equally admired and beloved
by all who knew her. She was gentle,
amiable and kind, while her charms of
person, mind and heart were happy to
contemplate; but disease preyed upon
her rosy cheek and she gradually faded
away, until finally the blessed Savior
sent white-winged angels to bear her
ransomed spirit across the dark river.
Just before the last final hour she said
to her weeping mothers and sisters:
“Don’t,weep for me. I see little white
winged angels around my bed, waiting

'MOTHER’S
FRIEND”
Not only shortens the time of
labor and lessens the intensity
of pain, but it greatly diminish
es the danger to life of both
mother and childand leaves the
mother in a condition highly
favorable to speedy recovery,
and far less liable to Flooding,
Convulsions, and other alarm
ing symptoms incident, to slow
or painful labor. Its wonderful
effleacy in this respect entitles it
to be called The Mother’s Friend,
and to be ranked as one of the
life saving remedies of the nine
teenth century.
From the nature of the case,
it will of course be understood
that we cannot publish certifi
cates concerning this remedy
without wounding the delicacy
of the writers. Yet we have
hundreds ot such testimonials
