In nioet ciihch thovrun the gnmut of business before finally s leeting a life pursuit, Various causes have been assigned for thin apparently aimless drifting, blit very few of them have been sat* isfac’.ory. The true cause, perhaps was suggested by a young man who recently discussed the question in a letter to a contemporary. “I urn a telegraph operator,” ho wroto, “em ployed by the Western Union Com pany.

Hut, in tho moan time, they go “moving on,*’ forgetting the worn but truthful adage Unit “A rolling atone gathers no moss.” Somobody must fill the snbord - .nule positions, and somobody must fail to grasp fortune.

A good thing for a farmer to do at this season of tho year is to look over his stock of tools, machinery and implements, and put all in ti.st cb.ss order.

A Murine, of Unit/*, Montana, is the poHiw-ssor of twelve buttles of wine with*a history. The earliest known of this wine la that it waa found in a sub terranean vault inaide a sealed atone receptacle, In a Jesulstical monastery, that was dcmolishedduringii local feud among religious fanatic*. It bo hap pened that the rye of an epicurean fell upon it and he secured it a» the moat valuable of tbe treasures, and carried it into Poland; presented it to the crown, for which lie was rewarded by tire highest honors aud titles that could be conferred upon aq ordinary citizen. At the marriage of the Prin cess Decherniz of Poland to the heir apparent of the crown of Prance, the only remaining basket of this priceless vintage was presented to the prince for the nuptial occasion. An unprincipled adventurer by the name of JJouforte, who had secured the position of second Bteward to the crown, stole twelve bottles of the precious nectar and re placed these with twelve of an inferior article. These twelve bottles he brougt with him to*A merica In the year 1790. Jle communicated the nature of his special treasure to his most trusted friend, Henry Coatway. The cupidity and avarice of tho latter overpowered hia reason, and lie killed JJouforte t# secure the wine. The deed was no sooner done than he feared the venge ance of the law, and resolved to fly to distant parts, for a time at least, until the excitement of the murder would die out. Before leaving lie buried the twelve bottles with their history far down among the roots of an ancient oak. Fifty years after, on uprooting this same tree, a newly converted Mor mon found the treasure and took it with him when he migrated to Utah. When Hrigham Young was made acquainted with the nature of the valuable article contained In the twelve bottles, he informed the owner that Mod had made him the instrument to liiid this treasure that he might give it to the head of tho church, and forth with took the vintage. j-, Tho wine waa in turn stolen from Hrigham by an npostato Mormon, who brought it to Montana, and on his death-bed, at the raining camp of Pioneer, lye bequeathed to J. A. Murray this wine of such nu eventful history, as a testimonial of his gratitude to that gentleman for his huving loaned him 8t»<)0 at oiio time for the purpose of calling a hand for Julius Levy, by which he took down a pot containing 91,300 mmm '***’ : OlUOHI of the Feel What are the most frequent diseases of the nails? Well, corrugated nails nro much more froquent on the toes than on the hands. Occasionally every nail will be threaded with rough lines, and the color of the entiro surface yel low ami unhealthy. Another variety of this disease in an aggravated form la an appearance of being eroded or worm-eaten and sprinkled over more or less with hollow pita. Medicine, unfortunately, can do very little for this unsightly trouble, which comes front a poor circulation of the blood, resulting from Indigestion or malaria, or some chronic defect In the circula tion. Troubles of this sort aro more frequent. among women thau men. Women, it is well known, are more troubled with cold feet than men, and (Ills difficulty springs from analogous causes. The 'ladies are most patient customers. They adapt themselves quite naturally to the luxury of a per fumed foot bath, or gentle scraping, paring, polishing, and tinting processes. We lay the loot on a silken cushion on which rests a fresh linen napkin, and the patient can read, or talk, or even doze while her feet are being beautiiied and doctored. She generally perfera to talk. She tells you .what a friend of Iters had done to her feet, and what an accident a cousin of tier's met with. Almost all troubles of the feet aro unnecessary. Caution and common sense would have prevented them. Of course there aresomeforms of jolutdls- 0080, intlammntions and perspirations, for which tho possessor is not directly responsible. If taken in time almost any trouble of. the sort can bo cured, •bid soap is the beginning of many evils. Much of the most highly per fumed is made from the refuse of rendering houses and ia full of alkali. Such soaps are likely to produce the worst forms of cutaneous affections. Where the Good Citizen* Coma From. The country boy or girl is face to face with practical realities, lie sees how slowly money is made on the farm; tie is taught from youth up the need of economy; lie has the nature of saving first explained to him every day in the week; lie is not exposer! to the temptation of the saloon or ball room and ho is not so much of a lady's an before he has occasion to. use a rarer on his downy checks. He may be a trifle rude; he may not feel easy in company, but in the long, closely contested race of life it is the chap that trudges to school baretootodjn summer and in slog.ts m winter, whose mother cuts bis hair with the sheep-slioars, Who leads the chap that goes to the ciiy achoot with the .Marched shirt front uud fancy slippers, and whose head is shaved with a law n mower at the barber shop.
