About half past seven O'Clock Yesterday af-
ternuon, = young married woman hy the
name Of Mary Bigford, occupying the second
foor Of a house cn the norih side Of Rich
mond street, few doors WHIST Of Mound, on
starting a fire in her stove. 10 prepare her
husbands supper, though. to hasten the
growth If the fame by pouring coal oil upon
the kinslling. She hal bsrcly commenced
pouring when the stream Caught fire, and
produced an explosion of the can that held
the oil, scattering the fluid all over her per-
-on, and setting her clothes Ion fire immeii-
atelv. Enveloped in flames, and screaming
at the top Of her voice, she ran down stairs
and into the yard, imploring the family liv-
ing beneath TO do something for her. The
people to whom she called we're % scared BY
her appearance, and so fearful that she would
set fire &c diem if they approached her, that
they ran into the hOllsc ardsclosesi the doors
against her, shouting to th.se who failed to
get in, to run for their ivesi The poor fran
tic creature, refused suco,r from within,
rushed to the sidewalk, With the flames from
her burning garments fariI,,s far above her
head. At the c,lrlsstOnes in front Of the
ho,lse she sank upon her knees trying to
reach the water in the guttei, and still Shrek
ing for help. Her screams i-oond drew large
crowd of men and boys to the spot, who heat
the flames with their hats, iand threw what
water they could get oyer her. But
they were unfortunately 100 late. Before
their efforts to suppress the flames began
to tell, she had been fatally burned, and
no human power could save;her life Every
particle of clothing was burned off her,
come parts Of her body, particularly the
upper parts, were literally roasted, and As
she cla<pea AMI wruns hea hands in her
agony, the flesh was STRIPPED of until the
homes were visible. When the flames had
been entirely extinsuished she was carried
into the house, and everything that skilled
physicians could suggest was done for her:
Alter the application Of cotton saturated
with linseed oil to all parts ct her body, she
rested easy, reSained consciousness, and was
able to convcrre with those ;about her. At
. clock, however, the inevitable effects Of
her injuries began to manifest themselves,
and at qaurter to ten O'Clock she died,
passing away as gently a. though she were
sinking into slumber IommerciI.

Don't Hurry,

Believe in travelling on step by
step; don't expect to be riclSin a
jump. Slow and sure is better than
fast and flimsy. Perseverance, by
it's daily gains, enriches man fa1
more than fits and starts of fortune
speculation. Little fishes are sweet
Every day thread makes a skein
in a year. Brick by brick houses
are built. We should creep before
we walk, walk before we run, and
run before we ride. In getting rich,
the more haste the worse speed,
Haste trips up its own heels. Don't
give up a small business till you see
that large one will pay you better
Even crumbs are bread. Better a
little furniture than an empty house.
In these hard times, he who can sit
on a stone and feed himself had
better not move. From bad to worse
is poor improvement. A crust is
hard fare, but none at all is harder.
Don't jump out of the frying pan in
to the fire. Remember, many men
have done well in very small shops.
A little trade with a profit is better
than a great concern at loss; a
small fire that warns you is better
than a large fire that burns you. A
great deal of water can be got from
a small pipe, if the bucket is always
there to catch it. Large hares may
be caught in small woods. A sheep
may fat in a small meadow, and
starve in a great desert. He who
undertakes too much, succeeds but
little.

The Absurdity of Tight Lacing.

There would be no tight lacing if
girls could he made to understand
this simple fact-that men dread the
thought of marrying woman, who
rs supJpctto fts-of irritable temper,
to bad headaches, and other ailments
we need not mention, all of Which,
everybody knows, are the direct and
inevitable product of the compress
sion of the waist. Men like to see
small waist, certainly, but there is
Il very great difference between the
waist which is well formed and in
proportion to the rest of the figure,
and q waist which is obviously and
artifcially compressed to the des-
truction of that easy and graceful
carriage which is one of the chief
charms of woman's appearance.
An unnaturally " compressed waist is
far more certain of detection than a
mass of false hair or faint busting
of violet powder. The rawest youth
who enters ballroom can pick out
the women who have Strengthened
themselves artificially. If the young
lady who, to obtain the appearance
of dragonfy, has been subjecting
herself to considerable physical
pain, and who has been laying up
for herself a pretty store of ailments
which only want time to pronounce
themselves, could only see the stare
of scarcely disguised contempt, and
understand the scornful pity which
greet the result of her labor, We
should have change of the fashion
and it is merely a fashion.
Through all changes women remain
true to only one fashion. Whether
her clothing is as long and lank as
that of a Grecian virgin, or whether
she builds around the lower half of
her figure rotund and capacious
structure of steel, she is forever
faithful to the tradition of a small
waist; and she will weaken her cir
culation, she will make her hands
red, she will incur headache, she will
crack her voice, and she will ruin
her digestion, all to produce a NAL
formation which wise men regard
with pity and fools with derision.

Grandmother's Spectacles.

They had done good work in their
day. They were large and round,
so that when she saw thing she saw
it. There was a crack across the
upper part of the glass, for many a
baby had made them a plaything,
and all the grandchildren had at
some time tried them on. They
had sometimes been so dimmed with
tears that she had to take them off
and wipe them on her apron before
she could see through them at all.
Her second sight had now come,
and she would often let her glasses
slip down, and then look over the
top of them while she read. Grand
mother was pleased at this return of
her vision. Getting along so well
without them, she often lost her
spectacles. Sometimes they would
be for weeks Untouched on the shelf
in the red morocco case, the flap up
lifted. She could now look off upon
the hills, which for thirty years she
had not been able to see from the
piazza. Those were mistaken who
thought she had no poetry in her
soul. You could see it in the way
she put her hand under the chin of
a primrose, or cultured the geranium.
Sitting on the piazza ono evening,
in her rocking chair, she saw q lad
der of cloud set up against the sky,
and thought how easy it would be
for spirit to climb it, She saw in
the deep glow of the sunset char
lot of fire, and wondered who rode
in it. She saw thin vapor floating
away as though it were a wing as
cending, and grandmother muttered,
in a low tone, "a vapor that appear,
eth for a little season, and then van
isheth away" She saw a hill high
er than any she had ever before seen
on the horizon, and on the top of it
a kings castle. The motion of the
rocking chair became slighter and
slighter, until it stopped. The spec
tacles fell out of her lap. A child,
hearing 1t, ran to pick them up, and
cried, Grandmother, what is the
matter?'
She answered not. She never spoke
again. Second sight had come. Her
vision had grown better and better.
What she could not see now was not
worth seeing. Not now through a
glass darkly. Grandmother had no
more need of spectacles.

How to Keep a Situation.

1t is 4 sad time just now for many
who depend upon their salaries fol
the support of themselves and fam,
lilies. So many men are thrown out
of employment because the times
are so dull; their services are not
needed in stores and workshops
But some men and boys are always
retained. Do you know who are-tht
fortunate ones? Those who are most
useful to their emplOyers-those
who do their work the most thor
oughly, and are the most obligine
and economical.
These young men who watch the
time, to see the very second theil
working hour is up-who leave, nc
matter what state the work may be
in, at precisely the instant-who cal,
culate the exact amount they can
slight their work and yet not get re-
proved-who are lavish of their en-
ployers' goods, will always be the
first to receive notice that times are
dull, and their services are no longer
wanted.
Whatever your situation, lay ii
down as a foundation rule, that you
will be faithful in which is least. "
Pick up loose nails, bits of twine,
clean wrapping paper, and put them
in their places. Be ready to throw
in an odd half hour or hours time,
when it will be an accommodation,
and seem to make a merit of it. Do
it heartily. If not word is said,
be sure your employer makes a note
of it. Make yourself indispensable
to him, and he will lose many of the
opposite kind before he will part
with YOU.
Holmes County Republican. [volume] (Millersburg, Holmes Co., O. [Ohio]) 1870-1895, 1870-10-27
Don't be Extravagant.

If the poorhouse has any terrors
for you, never buy what you don't
need. Before you pay three cents
for a jewsharp, my boy, ascertain
whether you don't make just as
pleasant a noise by whistling, fol
which nature furnishes the ma
chinery. And before you pay seven
ty-fve dollars for a coat, young man
find out whether your lady love
would not be just as glad to see you
in one that would not cost half that
money. If she would not, let hel
crack her own hazel nuts and buy
her own clothes.
When you see q man spending
two or three dollars q week foolishly
the chances are five to one he'll live
long enough to know how many
cents there are in dollar, and il
he don't he's pretty sure to bequeath
that privilege to his widow.
When a man asks you to buy that
for which you have no use, no mat
ter how cheap it is, don't say yes
until you are sure some one else
wants it in advance.
Money burns in some folks pock
cts, end makes such a big hole that
every thing that is put in drops
through past finding.
