SAVE \ IiTTTLE.-Eyery man who is
obliged to work for living should make
it q point to lay up money for "rainy
day. which we are all liable to encounter
when least expected. The best way to do
this is to open an account with n savings
bank it is always safe ii is always ready
for use when needed. Scrape together five
dollars and make your deposit, receive
your bank book, and then resolve to de-
posite given sum, small though it be,
once a week according to circumstances.
Nobody knows without trying it, how
easy thing it is to save money when an
account with the bank has been opened.
With an account man feels DESTROYS of
charging his deposit. 1t gives him les
SONS in frugality and economy, weans him
from his habits of extravaganza and is the
very best guard in the world against in
temperance, dissipation and vice.

To CAN PEACHES AND OTHER FRUITS.
Allow half pound of sugar, or less, to
one pound of peaches. Make a sirup Of
the sugar, by adding Il pint of water to a
pound of sugar, and boiling for time.
Pare and halvc the peaches; drop them
into the strip and boil for ten minutes.
Put into the caus-glass ones--and seal
tightly. Any other kind of fruit may be
preserved in the same manner. They will
keep equally well without sugar, but it is
usually quite rs convenient to add the SUI
gar when canned. Some add few peach
kernels, blanched For convenience sake,
and safety's sake, place the can, being fill
ed with hot fruit, on a wet napkin or tow
ell, folded number of times. Some Yare-
ties of pears require longer cooking, while
some other varieties of fruit need less.
The cans should be filled to the top.

PEACH STANDARDIZATION two pounds
of peaches for minute; take off and drop
them in cold water. Drain, skin and re-
move the stones atonce. Crack two-thirds
of the stones, bleach the meats, and cut
the kernels in lengthwise strips. Lay the
peaches in pan with a pound and a half
of sugar, set on the fire and boil twenty
minutes. A few minutes before removing
add the sliced kernels. Turn i'll pots or
jars as soon as taken from the fire. When
cold, cover well and place in a cool, dry
place Proceed the same with plums. For
pears or ounces, pare and core and use
sweet almonds in lieu of kernels.

District Conference.

MIR. HARPER Allow me, through your
excellent paper, to notice some of the acts
aud doings of our District Conference, and
also the interesting incidents connected with
the session Of that religious body in your
hospitablc town.
The Conference was organized by uuani-
mously electiug Rev. JAS. lIIGGINs, Presi-
dent, and GEORGE w WAsHINGroN, Sec
rotary. We mean no hattery when we state
that our worthy President filed the Chair
with dignity aud conducted the dolibera-
tons Of that body with wisdom, prudence
and discretion, eviuciug to all that he was
the right man in the right place" An
unsuccessful effort was made to express, by
a vote Of thanks, our high appreciation Of
his services, but by the exercise Of his au-
'hority, the mover was called to order aud
tho Conference yielded to bis request, de-
cllning at bis urgent solicitation to act --
Having thereby beer prevented from ex-
pressing our qualification by formal action
10 Conference assembled, We will, through
your paper, say to the community that we
are under many obligations to our highly
esteemed President. a similar vote would
have passed in regard 10 our Secretary who
filed bis place well, If tho President had
not declined the little honor We desired to
confer
The session was harmonious and pleas
ant and the only objection expressed grew
out OF IT'S breyity, causing regret by those
who were vieing with each other in the ele-
CANT entertainment Of its members. Il is
very questionable if ever District Confer
cnce was better entertained than the one
held here. The citizens Of this pleasant
town are certainly equal to any part Of the
Old Dominion for their warm. hearted, gen

RoMNEY, FRIDAY, OCT. 30, l 81.
March of the Deathless Dead.
ny FATHER RYAN.

The following beautiful poem was recited al
the close of the funeral observances, at Savannah
Ga. recently, the occasion of the rein termen
of Confederate soldiers who fell at Gettysburg
Gather the sacred dust
OF the warriors tried and true,
Who bore the flag OF our Nations trust,
And fell in the cause, though Lost, still Just,
And died for me and you
Gather them one and all
From the Private to the Chief.
Come they from hovel or princely hall,
They fell for us, and for them should fall
The tears of Nations grief
Gather the corpses strewn
Ger many battle plain
From many grave that lies so lone,
Without name and without a stone,
Gather the Southern slain.
We care not whence they came,
Dear is their lifeless clay
Whether unknown, or known to fame
Their cause and country still the same
They died-and wore the Gray.
Wherever the brave have died,
They should not rest apart;
Living they struggled side by side
Why should the hand of death divide
A single heart from heart?
Gather their scattered clay
Wherever it may rest
Just as they marched to the bloody fray;
Just as they fell on the battle day
Bury them breast to breast
The foeman need not dread
This gathering of the brave;
Without sword or flag, and with soundless tread
We muster once more our deathless dead
Out of each lonely grave.
The foeman need not frown,
They are all powerless now
We gather them here and we lay them down,
And tears and prayers are the only crown
We bring to wreathe each brow
Aud the dead thus meet the dead
While the living DER them weep
And lhc men whom Lee and StOuewall led
And the hearts that once together bed
Together still shall sleep.

CURE FOR F0UNDER.-A correspondent
writes: Take some old WOODEN blankets
or rags-if wcolen rags are not handy
take straw and wrap the legs tight, up
as high as you can conveniently, then take
hot water, hot enough to scald the hair of
on a well horse, pouring it around the hors-
es legs until they are well soaked then in
one hour serve the same way, except not
quite so hot, and in two hours he will be
as well as ever. This know to be sure
cure, and there is no danger of i6juring
the animal as would be the case with tur-
pentine. The horse is paralyzed the
limbs are cold and the hot water will
start the blood circulating, and start the
perspiration. / have taken boiling water
and applied it, and never injured hair.

REMEDY FOR NERVOUS HEADACHE
A well known Kentucky Minister, subject
to severe spells of nervous headache, was
in our Office the other day, says an OK
change, during one of those attacks. Ma
jor Brown, of Mexico, was present, and
proposed to relieve him in five minutes,
which he did mos. eGectually. The follow
ing is the prescription
Take dessert spoonful of common So
da, such as is used for making bread, and
dissolve thoroughly in qt. cold water. With
this, thoroughly shampoon the head for a
bout five minutes, scratching the skin of
the head q the back Of the head well with tho
finger nails. Then rinse the head with
clear cold water This remedy is for ner-
vous headache, and is not for those afflic-
tons of the head arising from dcraDged
stomachs

LACK OF APPETITE IN CHILDREN
The Boston journal Of Chemistry says that
children must have an abundance Of out
door exercise, fun and frolic Make them
regular in their habits, and feed them only
upon plain, nourishing food, and they will
seldom, if ever, complain of lack Of ap-
petite. But keep them oVertasked at school,
confined close to the house the rest of the
time, frowning down every attempt at play,
feed them upon rich or high-seasoned food,
candies, nuts, etc, allow them TO eat be-
tween meals and late in the evening, and
you cannot expect them to have good appe-
tites. On the contrary, you may expect
they will be pale, weak and siekly. Do
not cram them with food when they don't
want it, or have no appetite for it--such
a course is slow murder. If they have no
appetite, encourage, and if need be, COM
mand them to take exercise in the open air.

chloroform will in almost all cases restore
