Why an Old Bachelor Never Married.
BY JOHN WOOD.
The narrative which I am about to
write was told to me one bleak cold
night, in a country parlor. It was
one of those nights in mid Winter,
when the wind swept over the land
making everything tingle with its
frosty breath, that I was seated be
fore a blazing fire, surrounded by a
jolly half dozen boys and an old bach
elor, by name of Peter Green, about
forty and eight years old. It was
just the night without to make those
within enjoy a good story, so each of
us had to tell his favorite story. We
were somewhat surprised to hear Mr.
Green say, “I have no story that
would interest you.” So we had to
find other entertainment for awhile,
when one of the boys told me to ask
him how it happened that he was
never married. When asked, he said:
“As it is about myself I don't care
much if I do tell you. When I was
young we had to walk as far as five
miles to church and singing school,
which was our chief enjoyments, but
these don’t have anything to do with
my getting a wife, but I just wanted
to show you that we had some trou
ble them days in getting our sport.
John and I, were like ’Mary and her
lamb, 1 where one went the other was
sure to go, so we went to see two sis
ters, and as we were not the best boys
imaginable, the old gentleman took
umbrage and would not allow us to
come near the house. So we would
take the girls to the end of the lane,
and there we would have to take the
final kiss. We soon got tired of this
sort of fun, and I told John on our
way to singing school one night that
I was going into the house that
night. HeJ said the old man would
ruin me if I did. I told him I was go
ing to risk it anyhow, let come what
would. He said he would risk it too,
if I would. So home we vent with
the girls, and when we got to the end
of the lane, I told the girls we propos
ed going all the way. They looked at
each other in a way I didn't like very
well, but said they, “the old folks
would be in bed, so they didn’t care if
we did.”
They were a little more surprised
when 1 told them we thought of go
ing in a little while. All was quiet
when we got to the house. We had
no trouble in getting into the kitchen
and then and there, we began our
first courting and I made up’my mind
to ask Sadie to be my wife the next
time I came. It was now past the
turn of the night and as we had four
miles to walk, I told John we had bet
ter be going, so we stepped out'on the
porch, and just as we did so, the sky
was lit up by lightning and one tre
mendous thunder peal rolled along
the mountain sides, and its echo had
not died out in the far off vale, until
the rain began to pour from the
garnered red fullness of the clouds. We
waited for it to stop until we were
all sleepy, when the girls said we
could go to bed in the little room at
the head of the stairs which led out
of the kitchen, as their father did not
get up early, we could be home before
the old folks were astir. After bidding
the girls a sweet good night and hug
ging them a little and wishing them
to go back to singing on the next
Sunday night, we started to bed,
which stood near the head of the
stairs.
John was soon in bed, but I always
was a little slow and full of curiosity,
and was looking around the little
room. At last, 1 thought I would set
down on a chest, which was spread
over with a nice new, white cloth,
while I drew off my boots. So down
I sat, when stars of the east, I went
plump into a big custard pie. I
thought John would die laughing, for
he said I smashed that custard all to
thunder and the plate right in two.
You see we had to be awful quiet,
so the old man would not hear us. I
was now ready to get in bed, so I put
the light out and picked up my boots
thinking to put them in a more con
venient plafce, when down one of my
legs went through a peep hole which
had been covered by paper up to my
hip. Now one part of me was up
stairs, while the longest part of me
was in the kitchen, as my leg was
very long, and it reached a shelf
which was occupied by dishes, pans
coffee pots, etc., and turning it over
with a tremendous crash. The girls
had not retired and we could hear
them laugh fit to split their side.s. I
felt awful ashamed and was scared un
til my heart was in my throat, for I
expected the old man every moment.
I extricated my leg from the confound
ed hole just in time, for the old lady
looked into the kitchen from the
room door and asked what all that
noise was about. The girls put her
off as best they could and I went to
bed while John was strangling him
self under the cover to keep from
laughing aloud.
We soon went off into the land of
dreams with the hopes of waking ear
ly. I wish I could tell you my
dreams, but it would take me too
long. One moment I would fancy my
self by the side of my Sadie sipping
nectar from her heaven bedewed lips,
and the next I would be flying from
the old man, while he would be
flourishing his cane above my head.
This came to an end by John giving
me a kick. On waking up and looking
around, I saw John’s eyes were as big
as my fist, while the sun was beaming
in at the window. What to do we
couldn’t tell, for we heard the old
man having family prayer in the
kitchen. John looking out of the
window, said we could get down on
the porch and get out, and to dress as
soon as possible. So in my hurry, my
foot got fastened in the bed clothes
and out I tumbled, head foremost,
turned over and slid down the steps
until I struck the door which was
fastened by a wooden button and it
gave way, and out I rolled in front of
the old man. He threw up his hands
and cried Lord save us, for he thought
it w as the Devil. The old lady scream
ed until you could have heard her a
mile. I was so scared and bewilder
ed that I could not get up at once.
It was warm weather and I didn’t
have on anything but a—well, one
garment.
When I heard the girls snickering,
it made me mad and I jumped up and
rushed out of the door, leaving the
greater parVofiiiy only garment on
the old-door started for
the barn and when half way through
the yard, the clogs set up a howl and
went for. me. When. I got. into the
barn yard, I had to run through a
flock of sheep and among them was
an Old ram who backed off a little and
started for me and with a bounce. I
escaped his blow”, sprang into the
barn and began to climb up the logs
iato the mow, when an old mother
hen pounced upon my legs pecking
them until they bled. I threw my
self up in the hay and after John had
slid down the porch into a hogshead
of rain water, he came to me with
one of my boots, my coat and one of
the legs of my pants and he found me
completely prostrated. Part of my
shirt, my hat, one leg of my pants,
my vest, stockings, neck tie and one
boot was left behind. J never have
been to see another gif] and I’ll die
before I will,”
Excitement in Texas.
Great excitement has been caused
in the vicinity of Paris, Tex., by the
remarkable recovery of Mr. J. E. Cor
ley, who was so helpless he could not
turn in bed, or raise his head; every
body said he was dying of Consump
tion. A trial bottle of Dr. King’s New
Discovery was sent him. Finding re
lief, he bought a large bottle and a
box of Dr. King’s New Life Pills; bv
the time he had taken two boxes of
Pills and two bottles of the Discovery,
he was well and had gained in flesh
thirty-six pounds.

Fires in the West.
Eau Claire, Wis., Aug. 13.—The
last reports from the Chippewa fire
districts were received from several
woodsmen who arrived from the Deer-
tail, an important feeder of the Chip-
pewaslast evening. They have suf
fered considerably in the districts
n^rth of here, and say no territory
can escape the flames in the present
dry condition.
The Superior regions are well burnt
over, but the fires have broken out
afresh in a number of localities on the
Upper Chippewa since Tuesday, and
are raging fearfully. Of the escaped
territory so far are tracts along the
Deertail toward Sault Ste Marie, on
which there is plenty of chippings and
windfalls, which will offer the most
combustible food for the flames, which
are expected to reach that locality in
a day or two.
Settlements are sparse in that direc
tion, and the loss will be confined to
the standing pine and hemlock. On
the Y T ellow river, forty miles northeast
of here, the fires have done irrepara
ble damage. The fires are having
their own way, but men are now sta
tioned at the logging camps and hay
marshes to save that property if pos
sible. The Chippewa districts have
so far escaped with less damage than
the other districts eastward.
Home Politeness.
A boy who is poliie to his father and
mother is likely to be polite to every
one else. A boy lacking politeness to
his parents may have the semblance
of courtesy in society, but is never
truly polite in spirit, and is in danger,
as lie becomes, familiar, of betraying
his real want of courtesy. We are all in
danger of living too much for the out
side world, for the impression which
we make in society, neglecting the good
opinions of those who are in a sense a
part of ourselves, and w ho will con
tinue to sustain and be interested in
us, notwithstanding these defects of
the deportment and character. We
say to every boy and to every girl,
cultivate the habits of courtesy and
propriety at home—in the sitting-
room and the kitchen—and you will
be sure in other places to deport your
self in a becoming and attractive man
ner. When one has a pleasant smile
arid a graceful demeanor, it is a satis
faction to know these are not put on,
but that they belong to the character,
and are manifest at all times and un
der all circumstances.
