WASTE
In every household occurs more or
less waste. A great deal of coal is
lost by some people who think it does
not pay to sift ashes. From the fur
nace, perhaps not, but in a small
house where the work is not very
heavy, the cinders from the kitchen
are so well worth doing that a
scuttle nearly full of good fuel will
lesult from the morning sifting; if the
sifter is fixed on a barrel and covered,
it is not disagreeable work, nor will it
take ten minutes to sift cinders from
two or three fires.
Another source of waste is the fat.
In some houses everything is put
away for soap grease, which is sold to
the junkman for a trifle, and lard
bought for cooking; in others beef fat
is kept, and all else thrown away. As
a matter of fact, most families would
have but little need to buy lard, and
soap only for laundry purposes, if all
fat was saved.
It is needless to say, perhaps, that
the fat of beef is as wholesome as
butter, or that hog’s lard is one of the
most unwholesome ingredients of our
food; yet in spite of this acknowledg
ed fact, it is the b<.ef fat that is often
thrown away and the lard that is pur
chased for use. There are two rea
sons for this, no doubt. The lard
comes ready rendered and in neat
shape, and although it is high in
price and largely adulterated (even
when nothing is added to it, it is
said that what we buy as lard from
the grocer has had lard oil already
made from it,) it is bought for conve
nience. The second reason may be
that, although it is known beef fat is
wholesome, it is not known so wide
ly that every bit of dripping, every
bit of fat steak, the skimming from
water in which beef his been boiled,
can be dried out and clarified into
the purest and sweetest beef lard.

LIFE INSURANCE-
Life insurance is on a boom in
Harlem. It is gratifying to know
that so much interest is manifested
in this direction. There is no ques

duty of every man to insure his life.
It is a duty he owes his family. Every
one should avail himself of the op

the Staunton Life Insurance Company

UP BEFORE COUNCIL.
Several small boys who are allowed
by their parents to run at large,
came to grief on Thursday of last weak.
“An idle bend is the devil's work
shop,” the truth of this old adage was
verified in this case. These boys, for
the want of better and more lucra
tive employment, banded together for
the purpose of whipping any small
boy or boys from the country. They
used whips, sticks and rocks as the
case demanded. We hope the prompt
action of Council will deter a repeti
tion of such outrageous conduct.
Since the above was penned infor
mation roaches us that rather prompt
and unwarranted action was taken on
Sunday and resulted iu the remissiou
of more than one-half the fine, re
lease from custody and turned lose
upon the town to commit similar of
fences to those enumerated above.—

A NARROW ESCAPS.
Augusta Evening News; On
Friday afternoon a most horrible
sight was gazed upon by a number
of pedestrians who at the time
were unable to tender assistance
to a colored woman with her babe
in arms who jumped f:om the Cen
tral train while in motion and fell
under the cars on the rails. Her
escape was miraculous.
'Die name of the woman was not
learned. Ths incoming evening
passenger train oi the Central road
was going around the Y. on Wash
ington street, on its way to tho
depot. 'Die train was going rath
er fast aiound the curve, aud
while near the cotton compress
the negro woman jumped off iu an
opposite direction from thut of the
train which as usual (throw her
feet from under her and laying her
across the rails. The fireman saw
the dangerous position the woman
was in and hallooed to engineer
Star, who like a flash ot lightning
applied the breaks and saved the
negro.
When she was taken from tho
rails she was lying between the
trucks <»f a passenger car and the
express car. Engineer Star was
complimented highly for his valor
and piesence of mind in stopping
the train in a seconds’ warning.
Capt. Wm. Johnston, a prominent
citizens of McDuffie, died Satur
day evening. He was highly res
pected and at one time Judge of
the County Couit.
