On one of the melancholy days of last
November, Mr.. Chester Camp of Gar
den Prairie, Illinois, missed "a nice
large hog" and suppOsing it to have
been stolen, mourned ii as dead loss.
Recently, however, Mr.. Camps atten-
ton was attracted by a series Of feeble
grunts from an sttenusted snout pro-
truding near the base of a straw-stack,
hurriedly put up at threshing-time last
Fall. At once the mystery was revealed.
There was appropriate rejoicing, and the
animal was released from superincum-
bent straw aud restored to the pleasures
of the pen, having been buried four
months. All this is vouched for by
correspondent of The U'estera Rural.
There are persons who will jump to the
conclusion that this "nice large hog"
willfilly and maliciously put itself be-
yond reach when butchering season ar
rived, just to save its bacon.' We
sympathire with no such uncharitable
sentiment. We prefer to look upon the
nobler side of the genus Su', and are
forced to the conviction that this self.
sacrificing specimen-scorning as dross
all the allurements of the trough
crawled into that stack Of straw and mo-
bly, hungercd and thirsted, month after
month, for the sole sake of throwing a
ray OF light upon that great agricultural
question of the century, How long can
a member of the swine tribe live ON its
own fati" We want to hear further Of
this heroic hog, and suggest that it should
be permanently attached to the Depart
ment of Agriculture at Washington
aye, even introduced inio the high society
of the Commissioners own celebrated
"Mary," and fed on the choicest of Gov.
ernment corn.-NeD York Tribune.

Minor Morals for Married People.

"The last word" is the most dangerous
Of Internal machines. Husband and
wife should no more strive TO get il than
they would struggle to get possession Of
a bomb-shell.
Married people should study each
others weak points, as skaters look out
for the weak parts of the ice in order to
keep off them.
The wife is the sun Of the social sys-
TEN. Unless she attracts. there is moth
ing to keep heavy bodies, like husbands,
from flying off into space.
Wives, be lenient to the marital cigar.
The smoke always hides the most disa-
greeable part Of the battle.
The wife who would properly discharge
her duties must never have soul "above
buttons"
The liberties of England have been
won by mutual concessions. Let the
husband who would acquire the privilege
of asking friends to dinner without no.
tice remember this when his wife hints
at new bonnet. The wife's want is the
husbands opportunity.
Notwithstanding the assertions Of
msthematicians, the marriage ring is a
circle in which husband and wife have
the problem set them of making all
square. Punch.

COUNTY CONVENTIONS.

There are four lodges of Good Tenn
plars in this county with a membership
Of nearly four-hundred. A movement
is on foot to establish County Conven.
lions to be held quarterly. Upon that
subject we find the following excellent
advice in the Good Templar's Advocate: /:
"Hsving watched with interest the
practical work of these organizations, we
urge their necessity in every county
where more than two lodges exist.
Some ask what profit are they, as the
laws they make are of no binding effect
upon the Order.
We answer, they are life to the weak
Lodges, and profit to strong ones-the
weak member in the opening is strong
at the close. In counties where several
Lodges exist, one occasionally becomes
Indifferent and lukewarm, sometimes the
FIRE upon the alter dies out for the want
of tanning. At these conventions the in
terests of such are cared for. Wher re-
ports are received and a Lodge is report
ed daBSut to surrender, committee Of
workers is appointed to visit the weak
Lodge; the next convention meets there
and in short time thereafter a strong
Lodge is the result. Delegates attend
ing these conventions should return TO
their Lodges with new zeal for the work
and the fraternal ties are strengthened.
They are of such value no county can
afford to be without one, and we hope
soon TO record their existence in every
county where the Order exists. They
should meet quarterly, hold two days,
and every Lodge in the county see to it
that only such delegates are elected as
will go and be of active service when
there.
Where working they are proving of
incalculable value. Let us make them
more numerous, and great good will re-
suit.
