Truth Stranger than Rfction-A Fort
Wayne Aensns iou with n Moral

A little "unpleasaHtness"o occurred be-
tween gentleman and his wife at Fort
WAYNE, which came about in this wise:
The head of the family married a lady
several years ago. whom he had known
but short time. In the family was en-
ployed a young man of all work, whose
services the lady in question had enga-
ged herself. The gentleman, having
all confidence in his wife, made no OBJ
lection; but lately his suspicious were
aroused that all was not right: first by
remarks made by the female help presi-
ding over the culinary department, and
afterwards by hints thrown out by
neighbors: On Saturday he informed
his wife that business required his pres
enee in Lima Ohio, thatevening, and he
did not think he would return until
Monday. This was only ruse, and he
returned to his domicil after dark in
company with couple of friends, to
whom he had impaired bis suspicious.
Judge ofNtheir surprise and the hus-
bands indignation to sec the lady actn-
ally kiss the young man. To rush into
the honse and accuse the partner of his
joys and woes of her unfaithfulness was
but the work of a moment. She receiv-
ed him with perfect composure, not
muscle of her face moved as she heard
his npbraidings, but asked him if he was
through, and then told him that the
young man was her son, the result of
her first marriage, her former husband
having died on the scaffold, in enc of
the Eastern States many years ago, for
one of the most heDious crimes known
to the land. This fact she intended to
keep a secret from her husband and all
the world, but she must prove her inno-
cence. Then going to the bureau she
opened the drawer, aud gave her hus-
band the certificate of her marriage,
the papers containing her marriage no.
tice, and also that of the birth OF her son,
and lastly, the paper giving a full account
of the execution of her husband. The
husband fell on his knees and implOred
her forgivness, and the party aecompan-
ing him withdrew, one of whom
v0uches for the truth of this, feeling
convinced that truth is stranger than
fiction.
The moral of this story is plain. New
er marry until you hear and know the
previous standing of the party you are
about to select, especially if she be
widow from the East.

Food for Chickens.

One of your readers, having had pref
ty good success in wintering poultry,
credits it not little to his having fed,
as often as three times week full
mess of the following mixture: Take
in bulk equal quantities of Indian meal,
onions and cabbage, chopped fine. Scald
the meal so as to make thick dough;
then raix the chopped vegetables thor
oughly in, and to each quart Of the
mess add tesspoonful of table salt,
then stir again, and feed warm. y.

Opious for Group.

A correspondent in the Country Gen
heman says, in the treatment of Group,
to roast onions and apply to the upper
part of chest and throat. We have often
used fried onions. Slice them, and fry
in some oil or lard, and apply to throat
and breast as hot as can be borne, with
flannel over them to keep in the heat.
This is more quickly prepared than the
roast onions, and equally as efficacious.
Put in thin bag they can be kept to
the place. JENNIE.

In my Card Of Nov. 1, 1867, stated that,
"FOr the purpose of more fully supply
ing the wants Of the public, and In
order to prevent unscrupuIOus dealers
from paImlng or inferior and WORTH
less goods as the Morton Gold Pens,
shall hereafter sell no goods at whole
sale except only to duly appointed and
authorized Agents." etc. To this plan
I have since strictly adhered.
In accepting Agents, great care has been
exercised to appoint those who, by long
continued fair dealing, have acquired a
reputation for honesty, responsibility, and
probity-men in whose word the public
have learned to place confidence. These
Agents have agreed to keep full assort-
ment Of my pens, and to sell them ut my
published prices. Thus the public are sup
piled by them with Just such pens as they
want, either as TO writing or prics, and got
full equivalent for the money paid.
No agent is appointe1 TO travel from
place to place, or canvass the country,
80 that all who want q. Morton Gold Pen
must get It from the. Local Agent or from
headquarters.
None need apply for the Agency except
in conformity to the above, the liberal dis
oount To Clubs" being sufficient induce
