The emancipation proclamation had a
startling effect on the country, but pro-

so promptly regarded as in Hodgeusville.
Larue county. Judge -, of that
town, was a genial old gentleman, who
| loved his country and his bitters. He
had a son named c., who was about the
age of black boy named William, own
ed by the Judge. G was in the habit OF
| playing tricks on the boy, and getting
| him in and out of all manner of scrapes.
The day President Lineoln's procla-
nation was made known the judge was
in Hodgensyille, and returned home in a
condition only arrived at through the
liberal use of Hodgensville bitters, He
found the black boy in the back yard
hopping wood, aud, assuming a stern
ness befitting his official position, he

command meant, and supposing that It

The Judge, feeling that he had done
his duty as law-abiding citizen, return

with the judge ever since, feeling that he

The danger OF wearing false hair is
illustrated in new and forcible way by
the recent experience of a Massachusetts,
dame Fancying that her natural charms

aocently purchased one OF those myste

aud for briei space all was hair and

throat every time she assumed the for

She would, IN her own striking and pis-

effect that "she was the woman from

after she was-hung and that choke
would always attend The wearing of that
