Glove is EnOugh.,1

It is profitable sometimes to be senti- mental. Let us to-day remember that it is spring-time, however gloomy the weather may be, and recount a simple love-story.
 Last summer German boy and girl, Henry and Susie, living in Minnesota, fell in love with one another. Her family, at first indifferent, early in the winter put themselves in opposition to the match.
 But this Romeowas no drawing room lover. Desperately in earnest, himself, and confident of the fdelity y of his Juliet, he bravely went to work to make home for her. He already owned a quarter-section of land. Taking his axe he went to his "estate," and there cut down trees and hewed out logs enough to make cabin, which he put up without help and furnished in rude but comfortable fashion. This done he asked Susie to come and' be his wife. She consented. Unfortunately, the young man had not yet set up his car riage; and since it was unbecoming for bride togo on foot, 8 hand-sled, drawn by the bridegroom, was pressed into the service of the pair.
 Thus they went forth in secresy to their new home in the woodland, she riding trimly on the sled, he tugging bravely at the strap. It was eight miles to the little cabin, but love made the journey short. There the wedding was to take place, clergyman having prom ised to be in waiting to make them man and wife.
 Unfortunately the clergyman was not there, and Susie was frightened and ashamed. She wanted to go home. But Henry, grieved at her distrust and yet secretly pleased with her modesty, proposed that until clergyman could be found the cabin should be divided, by partition wall, into two cabins, of which one should belong to her and one to him. To this she agreed, and the young man went eleven. miles through the snow after the boards for the wall, dragging them home on the sled which had just carried a more lovely burden.
 When the parents found their fraulein it was under these circumstances-she keeping house by herself; he living like Q bachelor, and bearing himself in every way with a chivalrous courtesy worthy of Henry Esmond himself. The father and brother, notwithstanding their grief and anger, were touched by the unconventional honor and purity of the young. people, and wisely concluding that the match was made in heaven, gave their heartiest assent to it.

Manifest Abstlrdities,

Is there any good reason why the dictates of common sense should be disregarded in medical practice? Surely not. Yet how literally they are sometimes set at naught in the treatment of dys- pepsia, liver complaint, constipation, nervous prostration and general debility. How often are powerful purgatives, emetics and salivants given in of indigestion, bilious collie and costive- ness, when the disease has already robbed the patient of strength he needs to combat with the attack. The absurdity of giving blitating medi- cines to sick.people who are too weak already, is so manifest, that it is astonishing how any sane man believe in such practice. The rational course under such circumstances is to admin ster tonic and regulating medicine, and the experi- ence of quarter of 8 century has proved that Hostetters Stomach Bitters is the most whole some and efficient preparation Of this class to be found in the medical repository. It is, however, some thing more than an invigorant and a regulator It's properties as an aperient and anti-bilious agent its vitalzing and purifying effect upon the blood it's utility when given as an anodyne in stead of laudanum, ehloral or digitalis or some other stupeiying nacrotic; it's tranquilizing ten dency in spasmodic affections, and its palatabilty as contrasted with the sickening pills and potions of the pharmacspoa, certainly entitle Hoatetter's Bitters to be called the most comprehensive remedy in existence.

Private Habits of Judge Chase.

Chief-Justice Chase led very simple and regular life. For many years it had been his habit to rise at o'clock in summer and in winter. Before break fast, he generally took short walk, re- turning home in time to meet his fam fly at morning prayers, which he al- ways said himself, when he was well. The breakfast hour was o'clock, dur ing which he either conversed with those around him, or looked over the morning papers. At 9, he was ready for his private secretary in the library. Here he spent an hour reading and dic- tatlng letters or preparing his opinions. At 1O, he went to the Capitol, generally walking, and took his seat on the Su- preme Bench at II, remaining during the whole session until P. M. After the adjournment of the Court, the Chief Justice walked home and partook of 8 cup of tea and few crackers-this was his daily lunch. Then he spent two hours at hard work over his opinions until dinner, which was always served promptly at o'clock. The Chief-Jus- tlce enjoyed this meal especially, and never hurried through with it, however pressing might be the business that awaited him. His table was ele- gant, but not ostentatious, and all ways consisted of the standard English three courses and desert. Wine was seldom served at the table of the Chief Justice, and he never used tobacco in any form. After dinner he would spend an hour playing chess with his private secretary. He was excessively fond of chess, and played strong but not very scientific game: At 8 P. M., lie was at work again, which often lasted far into the night. This was before his paraly ysis in the summer of 1870.

REPORTED RESTORATION TO LIFE.- The ew-Orleans Tunes is responsible for the following statement: The most curious instance of resuscitation re- corded in our annals happened recently on Prytania street, near Terpsichore.> A child of three years old died early in the morning, and was duly laid out for interment; a competent physician cer- tifed to the decease, and the friends of the family assembled to solemnize the funeral. Late in the afternoon, the body having been cofined, and the fu- neral carriages waiting at the door, a thunderstorm arose. There were some unusually violent reverberations during the brief term of its prevalence. Simul- taneously with one of the most deafen- ing of these claps, the child recovered it's animation and resumed all the func- tions of existence. It is now perma- nently recovered. There is no doubt of the facts in this case.

Slaughter Without Suffering.

Our Dumb Animals describes the method adopted by the Anti-Cruelty Society for depriving creature of life without inficting unnecessary pain. For horse, a sponge, say six inches in diameter, thoroughly saturated with chloroform, is dropped into bag large enough to be drawn over the nose. 1t is not desirable to have the bag "air- tight ;" for, if so, suffocation is likely to ensue. In two or three minutes the horse is unconscious, and in eight or ten minutes dead, without suffering. For dogs and cats similar process, using small sponge and bag; or those animals, with the saturated sponge, may be put in a box admitting some air, when they soon Ego to sleep" Seventy five cents worth of chloroform will kill a horse, and % dog or cat. If one saturation of the sponge does not cam- plete the work, repeat.

An enterprising young farmer, living in Illinois, who had little spare time at his command, applied year ago to the New York Life Insurance Company for an agency. The necessary papers were forwarded to him and he made @ clean sweep of two counties. Since then he has taken two more counties and gone regularly into the business. He says that it pays better than any business he has ever undertaken for the plans of the company are so popular that he finds easy work. There are thousands of neighborhoods where an agency for this grand old company can still be had. If you apply, send full particulars, age, former business, with two names as references, to the head office at 346 and 348 Broadway, New York

The Piano..

A writer has taken the trouble to give the actual material used in constructino piano-forte. In every instrument there are fifteen kinds of wood, namely, pine, maple, spruce, cherry, walnut, whitewood, apple, basswood, and birch, all of which are indigenous and ma hogany, ebony, holly, cedar, beech, and rosewood, from Honduras, Ceylon, Eng land, South America, and Germany. in this combination elasticity, strength, pllabihty, toughness, resonance, light ness, durability, and beauty are indi- vidual qualities, and the general result is voice. There are also used of the metals, iron, steel, brass, white-metal. and lead. There are in the same instru- ment of seven and half octaves, when completed, two hundred and fourteen strings, making total length of seven hundred and eighty-seven feet of steel wire, and five hundred feet of white (covered) wire. The total number of strings, when properly stretched to pro- >duce the right tone, exert pull of over ten tons this represents the force with which one end of the piano is drawn towards the other end, and it explains the reason why good pianos are built so strong and so heavy. Such apiano will weigh from nine hundred to one thou sand pounds, and will last, with con- stant use (not abuse) twenty to twenty five years.

WHAT THE SHELLS DD.-On one 'oc- casion, says correspondent writing from the Lava Beds, we noticed shelf fall in the stronghold, and immediately after the explosion some twenty or thir- ty Indians ran up on top of the rocks. yelling and cursing at lively rate. One Indian was so mad that he fired his gun of in the air and jumped from rock to rock like lunatic. We have since learned from squaw that shell fell close to the council fire, and that One Eyed Jake picked it up and ran towards Sconehin and his nephew. All three commenced biting the shell, and while they were taking the edge off their teeth the shell burst and the Modoe tribe were minus three warriors.

Aiding Railroads.

The experience which Milwaukee, Wis, has had of the ingratitude of rail road corporations may be worth some- thing if kept in mind by cities that are likely hereafter to be called upon for contributions to encourage" the building of new lines. In his inaugural message to the Common Council, the Mayor of Milwaukee thus feelingly re- fers to 8 bond transaction to the amount of $424, ,O0O with the Beloit and Supe- rior Railway Company "It is difficult to repress 8 painful resentment when speaking of these bonds. The city. through it's sworn representatives, is- sued the bonds, but never received any equivalent for them. They were thrown upon the market at period of financial depression, and passed into purchasers hands at heavy depreciation. It was only natural that the city, in indigna- tion, should protest and disown them. Fraudulently planned and disgracefully executed, they are shameful transac- tion in our municipal history"
 The Supreme Court of the United States has decided in case taken to that court in Georgia, that the Home stead act is not retrospective. In other words, it is not good against debts due before the passage of the Homestead act. This decision will cause consider able distress among debtors in the Southern and other States which adopt ed retrospective exemption laws.
