HF The paper on which the Oh
SERVER is now issued does not sat-
isfy us. It is not what we ordered,
nor what the manufacturer prom
ised to send us. His excuse is
that he has now to fill orders from
other manufactures than his own,
and SO has to take what he can
get. His own new mill will be
in operation in a few days, and he
says the OBSERVER shall then have
no further cause for complaint.

The Factory.

j. 7. Medearis & Co. are fitting
up their mandatory with the
very finest machinery that an ex-
perlence of thirty years duration
could select 10 the best markets of
the United States. Their looms,
etc, for the manufacture of wool
en- fabrics, will soon be in opera
ton; their carding machine is now
in complete order, under the man
agement of the same carder who
gave such entire satisfaction last
year; and their lanyard and boot
mandatory are turning out the
best in their respective lines that
and skill can accom-
plish. Give them a call. Their
new advertisement will appear

Grant and his Cabinet.

Grant and his Cabinet.
After some half dozen trials
and as many failures, the follow
ing are announced as composing
Grants Cabinet:
Hamilton Fish, Of New York,
Secretary of State.
George S. Boutwell,, of Massa-
chusetts, Secretary of the Treasu-
ry.
Adolph Borie, of Pennsylvania,
Secretary of the Navy.
Gen. John A. Rawlings, Of the
army, Secretary of War.
John D. Cox, of Ohio, Secretary
of the Interior.
John A. J. Cresswell of Mary
land, Postmaster General.
e. R. Hoar, of Massachusetts,,
Attorney General.
The current feeling of disap-
pointment at the selections is GER
tainly not without foundation
The lack of a single frst-class
statesman among the constitutional
advisers of a President confessedly
no statesman himself, is a grave
defect that is naturally discourag-
ing. AS politicians some may
and do loudly huzza over the COM
plexion Of the Cabinet, but as
thoughtful citizens their counte-
nances are not so full of enthu-
Eiasm.
Upon President Grant himself,
though, the popular eye is intent
ly fixed as the champion of that
economy, retrenchment and re-
form" which can alone rescue our
country from the slough of cor
ruption, extravaganza, dishonesty
and misrule, into which the wild
excuses of an ungovernable par
ty spirit has plunged it. Wheth-
err his Cabinet be composed Of
personal friends or eminent minis
ters, the people will look to him
only for the Inauguration of sound

EARLY RIsING.-A young farmer
found he was getting reduced in circum-
stances. He went to friend to ask his
advice. This friend, with grave face,
said, "I know of charm that will cure
that; take this little cup, and drink from
it every morning of the water you must
get at such spring. But remember you
must draw it yourself at five o'clock, or
the charm will be broken" The next
morning the farmer walked across his
fields, for the spring was at the farther
end Of his estate, and spying neighbor's
COWS which had broken through the fence,
and were feeding on his pasture, he
turned them out and mended the fence.
The laborers were not yet at work !;
when they came lettering along after
their proper time, they were startled at
seeing their master SO early. "Oh !" said
he, aI see how it is it comes Of my not
getting up in time" This carly rising
soon became pleasant habit his walk
and cup of water gave him an appetite
for breakfast and the people were, like
him. early at work. He soon acknowl-
edged that the advice his friend had given
him was as good as it was simple.

A Bill is before Parliament, and has

A Bill is before Parliament, and has
passed the house of commons, to legalize
the marriage of man with his deceased
wife's sister, and the newspapers are
much divided over it. The Times is
much opposed to the change, and says ::
A sister-in-law is never so serviceable
as Immediately after wife's death. At
present she can offer her help at such a
time without risk of misconception, but
if the law were altered, it would be i'm
possible for her to remain in her brother
in-law's house. There is clear conven-
fence in the present state of things which
practically enlarges the family circle,
while we cannot admit that any real in
convenience is inflicted by the restriction.
There is no dearth of women in England,
and man can have no difficulty in find
ing suitable wife. It can be no mate
rial hardship to interdict him from two
families-his own and his wife's
The Roman church forbids such mar
riages, but frequently grants dispensation
in their favor hence, Arch bishop Man
ming and other Roman Catholic dignita-
ries favor change in the law, to cover
these last cases.

SUMNER FRUITs.-Acids promote the
separation of the bile from the blood,
which is then passed from the system,
thus preventing fevers, the prevailing
diseases Of Summer. All fcvers are ebil-
ious," that is, if bile is in the blood.
Whatever is antagonistic of fever is cool
ing. It is a common saying that fruits
are "cooling," and also berries of every
description it is because the acidity
which they contain aids in separating the
bile from the blood, that is, aids in puri-
fying the blood. Hence the great ycarn-
ing for greens and lettuce, and salads, in
the early Spring, these being eaten with
vinegar hence, also, the taste for some
thing sour, for lemonades, on an attack of
fever. But this being the case, it is easy
to see that we nulify the good effects
of fruits and berries in proportion as we
eat them with sugar, or even sweet milk
or cream. IF we eat them in their natu-
raj state, fresh, ripe, perfect, it is almost
impossible to eat too many, to eat enough
to hurt us, especially if we eat them alone,
not taking any liquid with them what
ever.

Hair and Women.

"Your hair wants cutting" quoth the
barber.
81 don't want it cut. You BARRIERS are
after mans hair the moment it grows
out of your stereotyped regulation clip"
"Wi en- the hair gets too long it is apt
to fan off. Your hair is coming out
now"
That's the story BARRIERS have been tell
ing me for the last twenty years. Now |
want to know why, if keeping a mans
hair clipped SO closely, as demanded by
the fashion of the present day is necessa-
ry to its preservation, why the same rule
does not hold in regard to women. AS a
general thing, they allow the hair to grow
as long as nature wants it. Do you see
any bald headed women am inclined
to believe that this constant cutting and
clipping has something to do with the
say the hair is sort of plant. IF you
keep upa constant practice of shifting
off the top of any plant it will finally die
down to the root. There's such a thing
as over-pruning.
At this juncture the barber grew met
aphysical.
"Quite a mistake" said he. sIt's a
mans brain that so often kills his hair.
Men think more than women. They
IVORY and fret about their business.
They use their brains more. Fact is,
they have more brains. Well, using the
brains SO much keeps the scalp heated
This dries up the roots of the hair. So
the shorter you keep the hair, the cooler
it must be and the longer it will last
But women do not think so much as men
You give a woman plenty to eat and
dress her as she likes-that's nearly all she
wants. Her brain is not SO active. Sc
her skull is not heated up like mans
and the hair is kept healthy. That's the
reason of the difference" said the barber
triumphantly.
The above is no work of fiction. It is
reality which transpired in this city
last Wednesday. It is useful, as it shows
an estimate of hair and especially women
held not only by single barber, but
probably large class of which he may
be fitting sentative.-Efgaro.

Color IN THE SKY-This crimson
of the morning and the evening, and the
blue color of the sky are due to common
cause. 'sThe color has not the same orr
gin as that of ordinary coloring matter,
in which certain portion of the white
solar light are extinguished, the color of
of the substance being that of the
portion which remains. A violet is blue
because its molecular texture enables it
to quench the green, yellow and red con-
stituents of white light, and to allow the
blue free transmission. A geranium is
red because molecular texture is such as
quenches all rays except the red. Such
colors are called colors of absorption but
the hue of the sky is not of that charac-
ter. The blue light of the sky is reflect
ed light, and were there nothing in our
atmosphere competent to reflect the solar
rays we should see no blue armament,
but look into the darkness of infinite
space. The reflection of the blue is eff
fected by perfectly colorless particles.
Smallness of size alone is requisite to en-
sure the selection and reflection of this
color. OF all the visual waves emitted
by the sun, the shortest and the smallest
are those which correspond to the color
blue. On such waves small particles
have more power than upon large ones !;
hence the predominance of blue color in
all light reflected from exceedingly small
particles. The crimson glow of the Alps
in the evening and in the morning is
due, on the other hand, to transmitted
light; that is to say, to light which, in
its passage through great atmospheric
distances, has had its blue constituents
sifted out of it by repeated reflection"

DEFENSIVE INSTINCTS OF HOME
There is an ugly SPIDER that burrows in
the ground. She excavates cavity in
some desert place, lines it with a delicate.
texture, and constructs trap door with
hinge and two little handles by which
the inmate may hold it down, if beset
from the outside. IF the door be forced
open by superior strength, right valiant
ly will she fight, even unto death, in de-
fence of her poor abode. So it would
seem that the humblest and feeblest
creatures possess that beautiful instinct
which, strengthened and sublimated by
human reason, justified by human law,
and sanctifed by the purest affection.
makes home the holiest place in the uni
verse. The poorest inhabitant of des-
potic coutry cannot part from the old
homestead without emotion. Like the
Irish peasant though born and reared in
abject poverty, with pig for a fellow
lodger, rags for covering, and dreary
bog for landscape, he looks hack from
the emigrant ship with big tears on his
cheek and heavy sorrow in his heart.

lists seldom perish from long illness.
They generally pass away without hay-
ing had time to sacrifice upon bed of
tedious illness. They wear to the last,
dying while in the harness without being
aware of it. Probably no slave pen was
ever more to be feared than the pen of
the journalist who has the capacity for
hard and rapid work, and the courage to
do that work without cessation. Yet the
people deny him the honor of being a
workingman.
