WHO REcEIvE ED THE MEDAL? a
GooD JoKEoN SOME ONR.-Adyicesj just
received by mail enable us to announce
positively that the only old medal for
American sewing machines was award
ed to Elias Howe, JT., as The mHnufaC-
turer of the best sewing machines that
was exhibited. There were eighty-two
different machines in competition for
the prize, and Mr.. Howe received the
additional award of the Cross OF the
Legion of Homer, as manufacturer and
inventor. The exact wording OF the
award Is as follows:
HowE NACuISE. WHEELER a WILSON.
Co-operAteur Elias "Mhesler a wilson
Howe, Jr, promoteur pour Ia machine n
lie Ia machine "a eou. boutonnieIe. AuiIft-
DIRE, iisddIie dOr." I6dOr.
The official list OF those who were
made Knights of the Legion OF Honor,
as published in the Paris papers, reads
thus: "Mons. Elias Howe, Jr., JdbTI-
cant de machines a ooItdre e1posdEf;"
which, translated into English, reAds;
mir. Elias Howe, Jr., maker OF sewing
machines, exhibiting" -gs-55lzs77f5l
Neither the Grover Il Baker nor
Singer exhibited.
From this IL will be seen that the
medal awarded TO Wheeler Il Wilson
was for "Buttouhole Machine" aud
not for the SeIGiRg machine.
The second premium was awarded to
the Weed machine. II

Good Character.

A young man who is enter
ing upon life with a fair repu-
tation, feels that he possesses a
treasure above all price, and he
will be likely to guard it from
the contamination of evil he
will also be excited to make
higher and still higher attain
ments in excellence. Charac-
ter is like a stock in trade I; the
more of it a man possesses, the
greater are his facilities for
making additions to it; or it is
like an accumulating fund,
constantly increasing in value,
and daily acquiring to itself
accessions of stability and
worth. s.m.r.n. .gra

What a Good Wife is Worth

~ hentucKy farmer lurnlsn'
es the following evidence OF
the money value of a wife,
The companionship Of such a
wife was even more precious
than her industry and econ
omy:
81 have been farming TWEEN,
ty.two years. The first four
years was unmarried. | began
farming with $50 acres, in the
Blue Grass region. | handled
cattle, hogs, sheep and horses
principly the first two named
and lived, 1 thought, tolera-
bly, economical. | spent none
of the money for tobacco in
any way; never betting a cent
or dissipating in any way, and
yet at the end Of fouryears |
had made little or no clear
money. | then married a
young lady of eighteen years
of age-and one who had new
er done any house work or
work of any kind, except ma
king a portion of her own
clothes. She had never made
a shirt, drawers, pants or waist
coat or even sewed a stitch on
coat, and yet before we had
been married a year she had
made for me all of the articles
of clothing named, and knit
numbers OF pairs of socks for
me-yes, and mended divers
articles for me not excepting
an old hat or two. She had
also made butter, sold eggs,
chickens and other fowls and
vegetables, to the amount of
near 5000 in cash, at the end
of the year whereas, during the
four years that | was single, /
never had sold five cents worth;
besides making me purely hap
py and contented with my own
home. And as to making
money; we have made money
clear of expenses every year
since we were married, in ev-
erything we have undertken
on the farm, and she has made
from $3.50 to $500 every year
except one, during the time,
selling butter, eggs and market
ing of different kiEds. My
yearly expenses for fine cloth
ing, &C., before | was married,
were more than my yearly ex.
penses were after was mar
ried, combined with the expen-
ses of my wife and children,
and our farm hiss increased
from $50 to $50 acres; and !
believe it would have increased
but little, If any, and | have

I'll Take Another Kiss.

AS a weary traveller was
winding his way through the
road in a far west region of
the country, he discovered a
young maiden seated in front
of the door of a small log house.
He rode up in front Of the cab
in and asked the girl for a drink
of water. He drank il, and,
she being the first woman he
had seen for several days, Of
fered her a dime for a kiss
The young maiden accepted
the offer, and received both the
kiss and the dime. The trav-
eler was about to resume his
journey, but the girl never be;
fore having seen a dime, asked:
"What am | to do with the
dime2n you may use it in
any way you wish,' he replied
1t is yours. If that's the
case, said she, l will give you

Too Heavy a Load.

The result Of the election
shows that the constitutional
amendment was too heavy a
load for the Republican party
of Ohio to carry at the present
time. 1t is we'll known that
we are no believers in the ex.
pediency of its submission TO
the people in the late canvass
not that it is not right in it.
self, but because of the danger
of jeopardizing its ultimate
success and the ascendency Of
the Union organization by its
premature introduction. We
could not, of course, refuse our
support to the measure, let it
be introduced when, and as
often as it might-and we now
rest.in the confidence that the
late apparent defeat is only a
step forward toward the GER
tain consumation of this just
and purely democratic meas
ure. The time will come when
the doctrine of the equal rights
of man and the principles of
true democracy will not be too
heavy a load for a party call
ing itself Republican to carry.
Whether we live to see it or
not it has got to prevail, or the
fabric of free popular govern
ment must perish from the face
OF the earth.-Lancaster Gaz.

a good burlesque on the pres
ent style which some journals
adopt of answering all the alb
sufG questions propounded by
people throughout the country:
lt..@Milo'- Macmillan has left
Mexico. Where he is at the
present writing, we do not
know.
"Volunteer'-If you were
killed in the army your wife is
entitled to a pension; otherwise
she is not.
"Semantha"-If Adam had
got the apple first he would,
doubtless, have eaten it all,
without giving his partner a
taste. Satan knew this, and
wanting to get them both into
the snap, let Eve have the first
chance at it.
"Giles"--Secret societies are
Of ancient origin. Cain mar.
ried the daughter of a Nod fell
low, and it is supposed that
even our first parents had a
lodge in the Wilderness
''Dora"--Because a thousand
Philistines fell before the Jaw
ofSampson, it doesn't necesSa-
rily follow that he was a great
er 'scold' than any woman liv-
ing.
'Zadoc'-The best way we
know of to keep winter apples
from rotting, is to make pies of
them in autumn.
Dom bey'-The Siamese twins
are not active members of any
base ball club that we know of.
'Reubin'--Christopher Col
umbus is dead. He died be.
fore the war.
'Jane'-1he teacher turned
him OUT doutless because he
didn't want any 'muttonheads'
in school.
Zebidee'--Owing to the pro-
tracted dry weather you can
not procure a marriage license
in Bellevue. You will have
to 60 to Norwalk.
'Benedict'-You can keep
your amiable partner from
scratching your eyes out by
keeping her nails closely trim

DR.. HALL assails the idea
that men rest by doing moth
ing. He says the only health
iul rest, as long as our physical
and mental condition remains
as it is, is to be busy. Men of
force and industry will every
where tell you, it is the hard
est thing in the world to do
nothing. The true object Of
rest is recupeartion, and that
it is best brought about as to
the body, by exercising a diff

to the brain, calling into requi-
sition a different set of organs
or powers, causing the mind to

Josh Billings on Courtship.


Courting is a luxery, it is ice
water, it is the pla spell of the
soul. The man who has never
courted has lived in vane. He
has been a blind man among
landscapes, he has been def
in the land OF hand organs and
by the side of murmuring ca
mails. Courtin is like two lit.
tie springs of water that starts
out from under a rock at the
foot of a mountain, and runs
down hill side by side, singin,
dancin and splatterin each
other, eddyin, and frothin, and
kaskadin, now hidin under the
bank, and now full of shader,
bimeby, they jine and then go
slow. am in favor of long
courtin; it gives the parties a
chance to find out each others
trump cards. 1t is good exer.
else, and is just as innocent as
5 merino lambs.
Courtin is like strawberries
and cream; wants to be did
slow, and then you havegot the
flavor. have seen folks get
acquainted, fall in love, get
married, settle down, and go
to work in three weeks from
date.
This is the way folks larn a
trade and akounts for the great
number of almity mean me.
chanics and poor jobs they
turn out.
Perhaps it is best l should
state sum good advice to young
men who are about to court
with a view to matrimony as
it was.
In the first place young men,
you want to get your system
awl right; then find a young
woman who is willin to be
courted on the Square.
The next thing is to find out
how old she is which you can
do by askin her, and she will
sa she is 16 years old, and this
you will find out will not be far
out Of the wa.
The next is to begin moder.
ate, sa once every night in the
week for the fust six months,
increasing the dose as the pa
shent seems 20 require.
1t is a fust rate way to court
the girls mother little on the
start, for there is one thing u
woman never despises, and that
is a good little courtin ifit is
done on the square.
After the fust year you will
begin to like the bizness.
There is cne thingI always
advise, and that is to swop
photographs oftner than once
every 16 Aaze, unless you for
get how the girl looks.
Ockasionlly you want to
look sorry and draw in your
wind as though you had a pain;
this will set the gal to teezlng
you to find out what ails you.
Evenin meetings are a good
thing to tend. 1t will keep
your religion in tune and if
your gal happens to be there
by accident, she can ask you
to 20 home with her.
As a general thingI would
not brag on other girls much
when l was courtin. 1t might
look as though you knew to
much.
Ifyou court three weeks in
this wa all the time on the
if you don't sa it is the
sleekest time of your lite you
