SOMETHING New! A USEFUL MACHINE!
We have had the pleasure of ex-
amining DR.. Badgley's Self-Adjust-
ing Lever Jacks, and pronounce
them one of the most useful m achines
ever presented to the public, and just
the thing for every farmer or person
with wagon, buggy, dray or ma
chine,-they are even good for pull
ing stakes or posts out of the ground,
and in our Western States and Ter
ritories their use will prove indes-
pensible. We were almost astonish-
ed at the cheapness for which they
can be retalled. They can be seen
or purchased at Barker's hardware
store, in WeAona, where they are
going off like hot cakes on q hotel
breakfast table. Co and get one.
1t is an article of a lifetime's useful
ness. We learn that they are soon
to be introduced in all our towns and
cities, wherever hardware men wish
to take hold of a nice thing. DIR.
of Wenona, proposes to sell
State or County rights, SO as to en-
able purchasers to make nice little
fortune in few years. All we will
add for the benefit of our enterpris-
ing men is, go in on your nerve
tbs better to be plucky than lucky

TWO LITTLE PAIRS OF BOOTS.

Two little pairs of boots tonight
Before the fire are drying,
Two little pairs of tired feet
In trundie-bed are lying;
Inc track they leave upon the floor
Makes me feel much ike signing.
These little boots with copper toes,
They run the livelong day,
And oft times 1 almost wish
That they were miles away
SO tired am to hear so oft
Their heavy tramp at play.
They walk about the new plowed ground,
Where mud in plenty lies;
They roll it up in marbles round
And hake it into pies;
And then at night upon the floor
In every snaps it dries.
To-day was disposed to scold;
But when Hook tonight
At those little boots before the fire,
With those copper toes so bright,
think how sad my heart would be
To put them out of sight.
For in a trunk up stairs I've laid
Two socks of white and blue;
IL called to put those boots away,
o God, what should dor
mourn that they are not tonight
- Three pairs instead of two.

My neighbor cross the way
Could keep her carpets all the year
From getting worn and gray:
Yet well know she'd smile to own
Some little boys to-day!
We emotners weary get, and worn,
Overour load of care;
But how we speak of those lite ones
Let each of us beware:
For what would our firesides be tonight
If no little boots were there?

his drapery, missed the slender body
of the priest, and, drawing hastily
back to renew the assault, hooked
one of his horns into the belt of the
sarplice, and pulled the priest back
with him into the cellar.
While thus in the power of his
victorious foe. he lost hope as it re-
garded himself, and the natural be-
nevolence of his disposition burst
forth in the exclamation:
Brethren, take care of yourselves,
the devil has got me-"
This exhortation vas better obeyed
than any he had ever delivered from
the pulpit-his friends all fled and
left him to his fate.
Among the company was shrewd
farmer, who had from the first sup
posed the fiend to be some domestic
animal, but, being lover Of fun
and willing to see comedy, kept
his thoughts to himself, and pre-
tended to sympathize with others in
their fears. He thought it time to
interfere, and, snatching pitch knot
from the fire, expressed his deter
minatien to rescue the preacher or
perish in the attempt.
Don't! don't!' shouted several.
"Take along the Bible, if you will
gor" said another.
"What does the devil care for fire?"
said another.
But, unheeding the suggestions
and the manifestations of concern
for his safety, he pushed into the eel
lar, seized the animal by one Of its
horns, and dragged the struggling
ram up stairs, calling to the aston
ished parson, "Follew me-" The
horned devil was led in triumph, tol-
lowed by the ecclesiastic, into the
midst of the company. A momenta-
ry signing and hanging down of
heads ensued, but the past scene
was too ludicrous to admit of sober
reflection, and loud peals of laugh
ter burst from every side, during
which the ram was turned out at the
door, the parson absented himself
without ceremony, and the sports of
the evening were resumed with bet
ter spirits than before.-POrtland

Curiosities of the Paris Exposi
ti0n.

The most attractive curiosity al
the French department ofthe Paris
Exposition is a newly invented era
vat pin. Every body has seen how
bells are rung in all the new hotels.
Instead of pulling the bell and max
ing it ring by an exertion of mechan-
ical force, we press small button in
the wall; this is connected by an
electric wire with little alarm, the
clapper of which keeps on jingling
SO long as the button is nressed.-
Lift the hand from the button and
the alarm ceases. This principle a
French jeweler has adapted to cravat
pins. The knob Of the pin is OF
various devices. 1t is hare with q
tabor, or a drummer with his drum,
or a deaths head with a loose under
jaw, or dog. Whoever chooses to
wear such pin has connected with
it by wire a small electrical battery
in one of his pockets. He puts his
hand into his pocket, touches but
ton there, and off goes the pin. The
hare begins to patter on the tabor,
the drummer to beat on his drum, the
deaths head to chatter and roll its
horrid eyes, or the dog to bark and
snap. When the hand is lifted from
the button instantly all is quiet.
In the British department curl
GUS swan attracts great attention.
When we approach the bird, we see
him floating as if in water, and rest
ing his head behind his wings. He
is wound up, and he begins to raise
his head with all the proper motions
of the swan. He curves his neck in
pride, he espies some fish in the
water before him, he lowers his head
to seize one, he holds it in his beak
for an instant, he then swallows it,
and, last of all, returns gracefully TO
rest. The action is very pretty and
calls forth loud applause. The bird,
however, is indeed very old, though
his plumage may be new. Its mech
anism was supposed to have been
constructed by Mr.. Weekes, who
lived in the reign of George I'LL.
but was lately discovered that it
formed part eff the museum of Mr..
Cox, a London jeweler, who lived in
the reign of George H., and whose
collection must have been of some
as he obtained an Act of
Parliament to enable him to dispose
of it by lottery.
Mr.. Harry Emanuel has put the
clockwork mechanism in order, and
has given the bird a new and beauti-
full plumage, but this is all he had to
do with the invention Of the toy,
which proves so attractive to the
and which seems to eclipse
all else in its neighborhood.

E The Dubuque Herald says that
whole fields of grain in Western Iowa
have been strippted of their crops by i'm
mense focks of pigeons. One farmer
residing two miles eastof Independence
he'd sown three acres ofwheat, and was
preparing to harrow it in, when the pig
cons made their appearance and gobbled
up very kernel before he could get it
covered. Some fields containing forty
acres were absolutely covered with pig
cons, and although sportsmen waged an
incessant warfare against them, and
killed great numbers, their places were
soon supplied with others.
