When Mary was a Lassie.

when MARY was LaSSies
The maple trees are tinged with red,
The birch with golden yellow;
And high above the orchard wall
Hang apples rich and mellow;
And that's the way, through yonder lane
That looks SO still and grassy
The way took one Sunday eve,
When Mary was lassie.
You'd hardly think that patient face
That looks so thin and faded,
Was once the very sweetest one
That bonnet ever shaded.
But when went through yonder lane
That looks so still and grassy,
Those eyes were bright, those cheeks were fair
When Mary was a lassie.
But many tender sorrow,
And many patient care,
Have made these burrows on the face,
That used to be so fair.
Four times in yonder churchyard,
Through the lane so still and grassy,
We've borne and laid away our dead;
Since Mary was lassie. "f
And so you see I've grown to love
The wrinkles more than roses;
Earh's winter flowers are sweetsr far
Than all springs dewy posies;
They'll carry us through yonder lane
That looks so still and grassy,
Adown the lane | used to go
When Mary lassie.

Improved
y Patent Well Fixture.

RETAIL PRICE TWENTY DOLLARS.
A new, simple and effective device for raising
water from wells Cheaper and more durable
than pump, safer and better than the old-fash-
ed windlass or sweep. ssNone mention 1t but to
praise it,
Having during the present year made impor-
tant improvements in the manufacture of three
valuable fixtures, we are prepared to recommend
them 70 the public with perfect confidence and to
fill orders from housekeepers, farmers and deal
ers with more than usual promptness.
The valuable points Of this invention are Sc
cured by letters patent, issued in 1859 and 1866.
More than seven thousand of these are now IN
use in the Southern States, and the demand is
still increasing. Where wells are depended on
for water, the Patent Well Fixture is indispensa-
BILE.
The bucket is lowered into the we'll instantly
by raising brake lever at the same time It's
| speed can be checked or stopped by the upward
| pressure on the brake handle. AS soon as the
! bucket strikes the water it fills, having valve
| in the bottom In raising the water, should the
crank accidentally slip from the hand, the buck
| ct cannot run down, a paul attached to the brake
lever holding it firmly, thus preventing the pos
| sibilty of accident to children or careless SER
wants. The rapidly extending sale of this pop
ular Well Fixture makes it very valuable addi-
ton to the stock of Agricultural Implement Deal
! ers throughout the South. We make liberal
discount to the Trade. We append two certif-
1 Messrs II. M. SMITH & Cos:

PROVERBS. All things have a beginning
God excepted.
Economy is the easy chair of old age
When fortune smiles she often designs the
most mischief.
He who serves we'll need not be afraid te
ask his wages.
Busy bodies never have anything to do.
Riches are but the baggage of fortune.
Thre are none poor but such as God dis.
owns.
When the tree has fallen every man rushes
to it with Ratchet.
The mill cannot grind with water that is
past.
Better to 60 around than to fall into the
ditch.
Willows are weak yet they bind other wood
What thou canst do thyself commit not to
the charge of another.
A FOOLS bolt is soon shot.
A liar should have good memory.
Opinion is private property which the law
cannot seize.
Revenge is the ouly debt that is wrong to
pay.
Past services should never be forgotten.
Gold has more worshippers than God.
Man doubles his evils by brooding over
them.
Good nature collects honey from every
herb

How IT HAPPENEU.-Once upon a
time gentleman found in his hen
roost a simple minded soul in the
vicinity, who lives without any yisi-
bic means Of support.
"What are you doing here, you
rascal? Stealing my chickens p
"No, sir" was the response, 81
amt thought of doing nothin' of the
Sort It unfortunately happened
that the simple-minded individual
wore high straw hat of the dimen-
sions of bee hive, and the crown
thereof was dilapidated to serious
extent. Just as he put in his denial,
the head of half grown pullet was
seen to prctsude from the aperture.
''See there said the gentleman,
chow did that chicken get in your
hat ?"
"Well!' exclaimed the simple
minded individual, with an air of
honest surprise and embarrassment,

A Convict Falls Heir to Thirty-two
Thousand Dollars.

Mr.. Allen Ross, the agent and
warden of the prison, received q
will this morning bequeathing prop
erty to the amount of $4,000 to a
convict named William r. Haight,
sentenced from Cattaraugus county.
The property consists of real es-
tate located in the city of New York.
He was apprised of his mothers
death a few days since, and she, in
her will, gave him all her property.
Like good many other wild boys,
William was allured by the attrac-
ton of travelling circus, followed
it to the above county, where he was
arrested for grand larceny, and SEN
fenced to Auburn prison for two
years and six months. He has
served six months, and will no
doubt rest uneasy for the coming
two years, in view of the anticipated
enjoyment of the sudden and uhex-
pected amount of property falling
to him. Auburn IN " Demo

Night-Air.

An extraordinary fallacy is the
dread of night-air. What air can
we breathe at night but night air :?
The choice is between pure night
air from without and foul night air
from within. Most people prefer
the latter. An unaccountable choice
What will they say, if it is proved
to be true that fully one half of all
the diseases we suffer from is occa-
sion by people sleeping with their
windows shut? An open window,
most nights in the year, can never
hurt any one. This is not to say
that light is not necessary for re-
covery. In great cities, nightair
is often the best and purest air to
be had in twenty -four hours. I
could better understand shutting
the windows in town during the
day than during the night, for the
sake of the sick. The absence of
smoke, the quiet, all tend to make
night the best tire for airing the
patient One of our highest medi-
cal authorities on consumption and
climate, has told me that the air in
London is never so good as after
ten o'clock at night. Always air
your room, then, from the outside
air, if possible. Windows are made
to open, doors are made to sllu1;-
a truth which seems extremely diff
cult of apprehension. Every room
must be aired from without,
passage from within. But the few
er passages there are IN d hospital

Notice to Tobacco CheWers.

1t Is said that Horace Greely In
tends to petition Congress to pass
the following law, affecting tobacco
consumers, at its session this win
ter:
Tobacco chewers are requested
to get their tobacco from first hands,
which is the first man you meet who
will give you chew.
Where parties are in the habit of
borrowing cllews, the Government
will furnish each man with note
book, in which the time of the day,
the size of the quid, whether plug
or finecut, the quality and the time
which the amount is to be refunded,
must be strictly recorded.
Those parties who have been in
nocently useing unstamped tobacco
will call on the nearest revenue of
ficer and give in as near as possible,
the amount which they believe has
been consumed. The officer will
furnish the necessary stamps, and if
they are chewed up in his presence
the Government is then satisfied
that no criminal wrong has been
meant.
Those persons who maliciously
carry two boxes, one filed with base
smoking tobacco to-give to borrow
ers, the other containing superb fine
cut for home consumption, are to be
treated as worthy of death, and lung
on the spot.
No tobacco box must have more
than two spigot holes in in it, and
the stamps must be pasted directly
over them.
When a quid has beer exhausted,
the Government strictly fotbid5 its
being thrown away until two red
chalk marks have been made across
it and label attached bearing these
words: "The fellow who chewed
this has complied with all the re
quirements Of the law, and persons
are hereby warned not to chew this
quid again."
Tobacco consumers must con-
stantly bear in mind that the
more stamps there are on package
of tobacco the cheaper does the
weed become-in horn.
| The Government strictly forbids
the use Of those tobacco boxes hav
ing a concealed needle inside the
knob on the cover, by which one
forgets his desire for a chew aftel
having the instrument run into his
thumb about foot.
The Government has witnessed
with supreme sorrow many young
men, and old men also, when they
observed an acquaintance smoking
a cigar, come right out bold and
ask :'Have you got the mate to that :?
Hereafter, in all such cases, the per
son asked will exhibit the following
label, which the Government will
furnish on demand: "Ask me fol
ten cents.
