SThese EARTH CLOSETS are pronounced by COM
petent judges, TO be the most complete and at the
same time superior to any yet offered to the public
having in them an important Improvement, not
contained In any other Closet. In the Hopper, or
Earth Container, is a shaft that is moved up and
down every time the lid is raised and lowered,
thereby keeping the earth constantly agitated, 30
that IL cannot choke or arch over, otherwise the
closet is Of no value, for II the earth does not run
freely the Closet as a disinfectant, is failure.
These cOmmodes may be placed in dressing-room
by the bedside Of sick person, without the least
inconvenience or annoyance to either patient o. az
| tendant They are considered Invaluable in the
sick chamber, being complete deodorizers and dis
infectoTs, and are said, positively, by the most
| learned medical men Of Europe and this country
to stop, when properly used, the spread OF eonta-
gi0us diseases.
We consider them conveniently useful, not only
in the sick room, but In any part of the house, or
| they may be used in out-houses.
| To the farmer they are still mora valuable, net
only for the convenience and comfort, but also for
the health of the women and children In the family.
| The products accommodating from the use Of these
Closets in families of ordinary slze are worth, at
least, the price of half ton of guano annually.

GREEN FRU1T.-At this season there is all
over the land great deal of sickness with not
a few deaths on account of imprudence in eat
ing unripe fruit. In the Mosaic system, the
Israelites could not eat green fruit. There was
no direct command against it, but the prohibi-
ton was incidental. The Hebrews were re-
quired to give to the Lord the first fruits of the
field, the hocks and the vineyards. "And We
shall cat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor
green ears, until the self-same day that ye have
brought m offering to the Lord" AS the peo-
pie could not eat of the fruit of the orchard
and vineyard until they had first made all
offering to the Lord, and that offering had to
be of ripe fruit; they were thus protected from
the sickness and death produced by eating
green fruit.
o The laws of Moses had regard always to the
body as we'll as the soul. The eminent DIR.
Hall pays an eloquent tribute to the sanitary
rules of the Mosaic system and says that "they
contain more practical wisdom than was ever
devised by all the Boards of Health of all the
cities in the world"
Ladies' are said to be more addicted to eating
green fruit than men are. DR.. j says that
he knows that the apple which Eve gave to
Adam was ripe. If it had been green, she
would have eaten it all up herself-,Southern

crp,or-s H1grony.-A Frenchman witt

A CURIOUS HIsroRY.-A Frenchman with
a history died the other day in San Francisco.
His name was G.andillet and his age was
sixty-five. At the age of twelve he embarked
as ship-boy upon a brig. and therein made
several VOYAGES in the China seas. He next
took service as chief cook in q Dutch three
masted schooner, and sailed on two or three
VOYAGES to the coast of Africa. This vessel be it
stated, was SLAYER, and on one occasion, when
pursued by cruiser, it was run ashore by its
crew, who escaped into the interior. In this
extremity Grandillct was captured by the SOL
ders of petty African King, who ordered
him to be baked and served up for the royal
supper But, fortunately, Grandillet obtained
clemency by announcing himself as cook,
and promising the King touch of European
cookery if his life should be spared. His offer
was accepted, and native prisoner was hand
ed over 10 him, who was furnished in the high
est style of the art Thus saved by his Gull
nary skill, Grandllet became the Vatel of the
African chi o whom he taught the secret of
how to pick.o meats. The King became so
addicted to picked dishes that he constantly
called for them at his meals. But one day
Grandillet succeeded in escaping, and, picked
up by passing vessel, he was landed at San
Francisco, which he afterwards made his home.
Among his papers was found detailed nara
tive Of his soiourn in the dominions Of the
Cannibal King.

A PArR1ARcHAL CoUpLE.-The Jackson
(Mo) Crshbook says:
Mr.. James Cheek, ST., who, with his wife,
lives few miles west of Millerville, Mo-, on o
tributary of Little Whitewater, was born jan
uary IL, 1869, near the base of King Mountain,
CASTOR County, N. G: His wife was born in
1774, in the same vicinity. In 1854 they were
married. that is seventy-eight years ago, and,
perhaps, are the only living couple of whom as
much can be said. In 1911 or 1872, they moved
to the vicinity of Bowling Green, Kentucky,
and there leaving his wife and family under
tho protection of his newly-formed acquain-
tances, Mr.. Cheek enlisted in Jackson's COM
mand, and served under him during the war
with the Creek Indians, participating in the
battles of Tallahatche, Talladega Autosse,
Emucfau Horse Shoe Bend, and others of less
note, being present when the renowned chief,
Weatherford, surrendered and delivered his
last sad speech. At the close of the war, he
returned to his family at Bowling Green, and
shortly after moved to this State and settled
near where he and his wife now live. They
reared a family of eleven children, all of whom
are now living-the youngest, daughter, be-
ing forty-two years old.
All have married and have families, except
one son, who is maniac. The ten families
have reared 100 grandchildren, eighty, still
living. Twenty-three Of these grandchildren
have married, forming twenty three new fami-
lies, and have sixty children. Of these great
grandchildren, fifty are Livingstone of them
old enough to marry. This is a prolific family,
remarkable for longevity, honesty, frugality
and industry.

AIR AND ExERcIsE.-That we Americans
do not take air and exercise enough is an ad-
mitted fact, and it stairs Us in the face in the
shape of pale, debilitatcd men of forty, and
sallow, hollow checked passee women of thirty.
There is lack Of muscle in the men and bloom
in the women. The climate is Il trying one, to
be sure, but that very fact should only stimulate
us to fight with and overcome, not to fly from
it, and seek refuge from it in interior atmos-
pheres, fifty times more fatal. Have we reason
10 fear consumption, that great insidious foe of
New England-straight-way We house our
selves, mufie ourselves, heat ourselves, and
deny the simplest breath of air access to our
lungs We drug our bodies with costly artih-
cial tonics, but we neglect those tonics which
nature has provided SO bountifully and without
cost. One-half of us are faded hot-house
flowers the rest race of unfortunate over
worked bipeds. Out of door exercise is grand
essential to health.

SHow Your HANDs.-At the Grant and
Wilson meeting on Monday evening, it was
amusing to hear how much the speakers had to
say about Greeley and Grant, and how little in
regard to affairs in the county and State, 1t is
ali very we'll to enlarge on the virtues of Grant
and the faults of Greeley, but the people are
more interested in affairs near home, and de-
mand to hear how the men they elected to Office
have fulfilled their trusts.
The people begin to feel the taxes imposed
upon them, and the rumors of fraud and cor
ruption that are circulated lead them to believe
that they have been deceived in their friends,
and that changes in some quarters are necessa-
nv. They know that something is rotten, and
they in vain listen to the orators at the various
meetings to find out who is to blame, but the
speakers dare not attack any one for fear they
may be fouling their own nest, and placing in
jeopardy their chances Of serving the people
another term.
In the mean time it is becoming almost i'm
possible even with fife and drum to get togeth-
er corporals guard to listen to the nQn-com-
initial speeches that the people of Beaufort
have so often listened to.
We presume, after the Convention meets,
that the rogues will be duly shown up, and
that they will all be found among the oppo-
nents of the ticket, and then the people will be
enabled to find out when it is too late how
honestly the affairs of State have been admin
istered by those seeking another lease OF office.
We call upon all for facts and not rumors,
make your charges of corruption openly and
let the accused answer before the people,
Beaufort Republican.

PRESERVE THIS CAREFULLY.-ln reply to
G. w. c., p. 16s, can give some facts which
may be of use to somebody, thereby saving life.
The time between the biting of an animal by a
mad dog and showing signs of hydrophobia is
not less than nine days, but may be nine
months After the animal has become rabid,
bite or scratch with his teeth upon person,
or slobber coming in contact with a sore or
raw place, would produce hydrophobia just as
soon as though he had been bitten by mad
dog. Hydrophobia can be prevented, and l
will give what is we'll known to be an infallible
remedy, if properly administered, for man or
beast. A dose for a horse or cow should be
about four times as great as for person. 1t is
not too late to give medicine any time before
the spasms come on.
The first dose for person, is one and half
ounces elecampane root bruised, put in pint
of new milk, reduced to one half by boiling,
then taken all at one dose in the morning, fast
ing until afternoon, or at least very light diet
after several hours have elapsed. The second
dose the same as first, except take two ounces
of the root third dose the same as last, to be
taken every other day. Three doses are all
that is needed, and there need be no fear.--
This know from my own experience, and
know of number of other cases where it has
been entirely successful. This is no guesswork.
Those persons allude to were bitten by their
own dogs, that had been bitten by rabid dogs,
and were penned up to see if they would go
mad; they did go mad, and did bite the PER
sons. This remedy has been used in and
about Philadelphia forty years and longer with
great success, and is known as the Goodman
remedy. I am acquainted with physician
who told me he knew of its use more than thir-
ty years, but never knew a case that failed
where it was properly administered. Among
other cases he mentioned was one where
number of cows had been bitten bya mad dog.
To half of the number they administered this
remedy, to the other half not The latter all
died with hydrophobia, while those that took
the elecampane and milk showed no signs Of
that disease-Cbuntry Gentleman.

HEs-UNDRUMs.-Wh is hen immortal |?
Her son never sets. Why have chickens no
hone in the future? They have their next
world (necks twirled) in this. Why is a hen
on fence like cent? Head OH one side
tail on the other Why don't hens lay at
night? Then they are roosters. Why is the
first chicken of brood like the master of a
ship? A little forward on the main hatch.
Wby is a chicken Just hatched like a cows
tail? Never seen before Why should not a
hen cross the road? 1t would be fowl pro-
ceeding. If ship captain had no eggs, what
would he do? Lay to two. And, to con-
clude, hen is a poor economist, because for
every grain she gives peck.

Yulgarity in Dress.

The correspondent of st. Louis paper re-
cites an incident seen by him on Broadway
few days since, as follows:
ga sweet young thing tripped down the
street before me Saturday. lavender silk
profusely frilled, and something more than the
regulation stick-out behind. I had my eagle
of.eye and my lynx-like nigh on this palpita-
ting bumper, when an unusual depression oc-
cured; convulsive action took place few
feet below. On swept the collapsed lady, and
she left behind three Heralds, one San, frag-
ment of paper muslin, and the Christian o.
server mot me, by any means, but the paper,
Observer and IPatchman), all hung carelessly
over an old black shoe-string."
Probably there is good deal of Imagination
in this, but if the young women who indulge
in the unsightly abomination known as PAN
niers were but to see themselves in profile, the
odds are very largely in favor of their abstain
ing from further use of them. 1t is some
what curious fact that while male attire is be-
coming quieter, year by year, that of the gen.
tier sex is rapidly rising to all sorts of extrav-
agances of form and color, the most outre COM
binations of both being eagerly sought after on
all sides. Another pitiful satire on good taste
and decency is the Dolly Warden fever. 1t
seems to have taken badly with the rural mind
and the demi-monde, and yet we have the
Dolly Warden CATERS, neckties, hats, caps,
chewing-gum, and every other conceivable and
inconceiYable thing to which the name of
Dickens pretty little heroine can be applied,
with or without rhyme or reason. This ex-
travagance of dress does not speak particularly
we'll for the refinement of the female sex, and
some stand should be taken to prevent its
spread. In England the absence of the Prin-
cess of Wales from the Court has led to an in
crease in these fantastic designs, but, with her
return, comes an order that ladies with square
necked dresses will not be admitted to the
drawing rooms, and decency and responsibility
must be maintained. 1t is somewhat hard to
say it, but the ladies of the present day are, in
the ballroom, as lavish in the display of their
persons as the veriest cocotte, while the fantas-
tic shapes and colors of their dresses in the
promenade cannot fail to attract attention, and,
not unfrequently, invite insult. The Princess
of Wales is doing her best to stop this among
the ladies of England, and it is to be regretted
that we have not some Princess of Wales here
to teach our American women modesty and
moderation in dress.-Detroit Free Press.

BURIED TREASURES UNEARTHED. Last
Friday morning, two colored men, while dig
ging a ditch on Noisette's Farm, near the forks
Of the road, unearthed large iron pot or ket,
tie filled with specie, which looked as II 1t m naa
been buried for number of years, it having
turned dirty brown color. The pot or kettle
was made of iron, and was 80 rusted that it fell
to pieces on being lifted out 1t was filled
with Spanish silver dollars, doubloons and some
Mexican gold coin, the size of an American
half eagle. The colored men acted very eau
came came known in the neighborhood by casual
remark dropped by colored woman who had
gone to give them their dinner, and had been
given four or five of the gold pieces with the
w Warning to keep her mouth shut. The lucky
finders have concluded to settle in life upon
the proceeds of their fortunate discovery, and
will doubtless have a special interest hereafter
in the subject of drainage.-cAarlsston Daily
