HOW TO WALK WELL.

1t seems an easy enoagh matter to walk,
and yet very few ever learn how to do it
properly. One can reckon among his ac-
4ualntances, very many fine looking men
and women, but perhaps, not one Of the
entire number is a good walker The an
cient poet tells how the goddess was
known by her walk, but that distinguished
mark OF exalted birth seems to have
passed away with the old NEUROLOGICAL
days. We talk of lordly ports and queen
ly bearing, but such scioas of ROYALTY as
have visited our shores seem to have yery
little that is regal in their personal car
riage. We are not without fine specimens
OF male and female beauty, but we are too
often disenchanted when we see those Ve-
muses. and Adonises moving about There
Is no real reason for this unseensiness of
motion. Men and women are particular
enough about their dress, but they sham
BILE, trot or waddle along, without much
apparent regard for the appearance they
make.
One OF the secrets of good walking is
TO be able to balance the body easily, first
on one foot, and then on the other. When
the soldier has learned to stand steadily on
one loot, he can then walk without sway
ing. and preserve that steadiness in march
ing which is always mark Of well-drilled
troops. So if civilians wish to learn to
walk as well as soldiers, they must, like
them, learn something of the mysteries of
balancing. But it is not an easy thing to
stand steady on narrow sole with a
small heel, and this is just the difficulty
with the walking of fashionable people.
The sandalled feet Of those ancient beau
ties, whose forms have come down to us
preserved in marble, are beautiful in their
unrestrained naturalness, and very unlike
those of modern bellies, or beaux either,
for the matter of that With low heels
and broad sole, it is not difficult 10 balance
the body, while by drawing in the chin
the shoulders are naturally thrown back,
the lungs given full opportunity to expand,
and the head carried erect. Fashionable
boots and high heels must he discarded,
or it is useless to make the experiment of
learning to walk well.-Heasth and Home.

SUGAR MAKING FROM MELONS.

A pamphlet has been published to show
that sugar can be made more profitably
| from melons than beets in California. it
tells us that mill to yield thirty per cent.
annual profit on the capital invested will
cost $50, 900, il made TO work up melons,
and 5000 if made to work up beets,
and that every farmer can make his own
melon sugar as easily as maple sugar.
The last assertion claims much, since
thousands of small farmers in the Eastern
States make maple sugar for home use,
and we are not aware that one farmer in
the New World makes his own melon su-
gar. The production of beet sugar in this
State is very profitable, and perhaps mel
on sugar can be made with profit, but we
are not convinced.
The pamphlet before us does not give
us such details of the expenditures of a
melon mill as we have of beet sugar mills.
nor does it describe their process of man.
ufacture with decision. The common
melon is recommended for small estab-
llshments. The cantaleup and Persian
melons yield more sugar, but require the
most care and cost in manipulation. The
yield from the water melons is seven per
cent. Alter putting the juice over the
fire and skimming off the skum, lime wa
ter or milk of lime is added to neutralize
the acidity, and the evaporation by heat
never allowing the juice to boil) is con-
tinued until thick enough for syrup or su-
gar. If the claims made by the pamphlet
are true the production of melon sugar in
this State should soon become an impor-
tant branch of industry. 1t is rumored
that the Aptos rancho, in Santa Cruz
county, has been bought for $50, 900 by a
San Francisco sugar refinery company.

Nobody but an ass like Isaac Nor

Nobody but ali ass like Isaac Nor
ris would undertake to say there was
anything d~ishonorable in printing just
such tickets as voters order, The
Tickets we printed were ordered by
good Republicans, given to Republi-
cans, paid for by Republicans, distri-
buted by Republicans and voted by
Republicans knowing exactly what
they we're. Did any Democrat order
the tickets printed by Morris? Did
any Democrat distribute them? Did
any Democrat vote one knowing what

distributed by Republicans, just as the
O'Conner ticket was, and circulated
to deceive the unsuspecting. That is

0RITuARX

The Hon. G.. W. THOMPSON, died on
the 4th inst, at Lincoln, Nebraska, of
Typhoid or Climatic fever, aged 81 years
and 20 days.
Never of a very rugged CONSTITUTION
or vigorous health, he had for a number
of years been severely afflicted with a
disease commonly known as Hay Fever,
which periodically caused him great suf-
fering andinconvenience. The periodic
attack a few months ago, was more seri-
Gus than usual, and at one time, in the
latter part of September, took a form re-
sembling paralysis of the brain, which,
at the time, gave his fabiily and friends
great uneasiness, and it twas afterwards
observed with apprehension, that he did
not seem to either his mental
vigor or physical strength, and it is pro
bable that he did not fully recover at any
time from h effects of this acute at
tack, but being absent from home as sta
ted below, this is not certainly known.
He had business that required his at
tention in Nebraska, and partly to give
attention to this and partly with the hope
of benefitting his health by the trip, he
left home for the West on the Sth of Oc-
tober. For some two weeks after he left
he kept his family advised of his where
abouts and conditions; Then came an
eminous silence which continued two
weeks, caused it is now supposed, by a
fear that he might unnecessarily alarm
his family by informing them of his fast
failing health on the II hand, and ON
the other with a hope that he would be
able to start in a day or two and relieve
all aprI ehension, by his personal appear
ance at home. The suspense had become
terrible when it was broken but not re-
lieved, Oh the evening of the 4th inst,
by a despatch from the Douglass House
at Lincoln, informing the family of his
sickness and summoning his wife to ONE
at once. She started by the next train
west that night; but the next morning
it was learned by a telegram that had
been delayed 0ver night, that he had
died, even before she had left her home
in Eaton. The hope of meeting him
again on earth, sustained her as she
went, and faith that she will again meet
him i'll heaven, sustained her, when that
hope was crushed, and she looked upon
the lifeless form of him she loved so ten
derby, and this faith and Il sense OF duty
still sustained her as she brought bach
that loved form to her children, that
their tears might mingle over the re.
mains at a common altar.
Its gratifying to know that although
| far from home and among strangers, i'll

Suicide,

A young lad, only about u years of
age, by the mans of David A. Butts,
living in the family of Harrison Will
kinson, about 4 miles west of Eaton,
committed suicide by hanging himself
on Thursday evening of last week.
He was sent out about dusk of that
evening to gather corn for the horses,
but did not return. On Saturday NOR
ming his body was found on the hay
loft suspended by the neck with a
plow line, and stiff in death. Reproof
from the family for some misconduct,
is the only aus that can be assigned
for the rash deed of this youth.

The Great and the Good Isaac.

The great and good Isaac, of "rou

about to be kicked by the Republican
Central Committee from the contro
of the milk and water organ he pre-
sides over, because of his Ignorance
and stupidity in conducting the con
Germ during the campaign. Isaac, the
same puppet who branded all the
supporters of Quinn and Townsend
as "rif raft and scum" and said a
"worthier set of men could be found
at that den of murderers and thieves,
the Five Points!" Isaac, the pure,
high-minded, noble, honorable and
sanctiied Isaac, says we are a chad
man-that we publish a bad paper,
and that we place our success above
the consideration of either propriety
or honesty" Does this tool of a dirty
clique, know of any dishonest trans-
actions in our business? Ii he does.
let him expose them. We dare him !!
We suppose the standard of "pro-
priety and honesty and success" of
this olive Points" slanderer, would
consist in our making out a bill of So,
"nominal charges" against the Agri-
cultural Society Ior Locals, recon-
mending said in stitution to run on
"meral principlesl - (Anas extrava-
CANT a price as first class Lawyers

about 125 per cent. upon work we
could not do, and having our "im-
print" stuck upon it, thus stealing the
credit of good workmen, and then hav-
ing III bills "cut down" to fair rates!
We have good reason to think that
the honorable Isaac would say this
was at least an effort at E'propriety,"
"honesty" and success" in businessl
1t is only "routineing!" you know,
and Isaac believes in thatl But Isaac,
YOU are not the B,a to talk about
honesty in anything, for you have not
an honest principle in your hypocrit-
ical carcass, and if Mr.. lizard had
taken the advice of leading Republic
cans, and kicked you out Of the posi-
ton you occupy long ago, it would
have been to the-credit of the paper.
If there are any 'intelligent" DEM
ocrats, as 'fee bills in gross" says,
who don't ike our paper, because we
cannot pin ourselves to their coattails,
and follow them in Their faIlatieal and
extreme notions on Temperance and
recommend them to the
tender pIiability of Isaac. We have
our opinions upon these questions,
and do not iIItrGde them upon any
one. ard are net going to be inf1uenc-
ed or toadied around as Isaac is, by
the likes and dislikes of two or three
individuals. We occupy the same
position on the lem j,erance question
hat the Cincinnati GAZETTE, C.M-

and other leading papers in the State,
that is, that fanatieal >and extreme
measures win newer correct The evil,
and we Lave a living and moving
truth of tllisifact iii the town of Eaton,
and when any democrat joins Isaac
in saving we are opposed to either
Morality or Religion, he
only proves himself as much of an ig-
noramus as Isaac is himself, and we
feel the same amount of pity for him.
