RESCUE OF A YoUNG GIRL FROM A
DREADFUL FATE--A naughty Halifax
maiden of the tender age of thirteen
summers, who has been going to the bad
at rapid rate during the last few
months, stole SIS in hard coin from her
father the other day, and left her home
to set up for herself. Her distracted
father, directly after he missed the child,
took police officer and started in pur-
suit, and after long search found that
she was concealed IN the garret of a
house opposite the Wesleyan church. On
entering the chamber nothing could be
seen of the girl who had apparently
vanished as if by enchantment. When
the room had been searched, and the
father and police were about to leave, it
was noticed that small window in the
gable end of the house was open, and on
the sill could be seen small white
hand. On going to the window the poor
frightened child was found hanging by
her puny hands some forty feet from the
ground. The officer grasped her ant
rescued her from the dreadful fate
which her failing strength would sool
have brought to consummation. The ia
ther was so much rejoiced to recover hi
child alive that he administered but
mild reproof.

HORSES IN BATTLE.--Army horses,
genrally speaking, were knowing set,
although many of them were perverse
and vicious and IN their general conduct
were specimens of an animated uglincss
on four legs. The boys had theory
that all the kicking, biting and balky
horses were sent to the army. But the
majority of these soon yielded to disci-
pline and the trooper and his horse soon
froze to each other. The horse follow
ed his master, came at his call, obeyed
signs as we'll as words and at times warn
ed his rider of danger Horses learned
the bugle calls readily as we'll as their
places and to start the horses it was on
lv necessary to sound feed or water call.
In action many horses would about face,
turn right or left, halt, move forward,
ETC., ETC., at the bugle call without word
or sign from the riders. Coming off
Charlottesville battle field the Captain
of battery dismounted to look after a
disabled gun, the remainder of the bat
terry passing on. His horse broke loose,
joined the column, took his place at the
head and would allow no one to ap-
proach him, until two or three miles
had been travelled. The conclusions of
the artillery discharges effected the hear
ing of horses as it did that cf men. Of
ten the ears would lop down instead of
standing erect, making SO much change
in the appearance of a horse, that his
rider would hardly recognize him.
Tired men moved much better under the
influence of music, and horses worked
better under the bugle On one oc-
casion the guns of Capt. Paddy HIS bat
terry, were stuck in the mud of the bad
roads. Everything had been done to make
the horses pull through, but they could
not do it At last Captain Paddy turn
ed in desperation and shouted, "Ser
geant, Sergeant, have the bugle sounc
the tora0ard call, They'll fetch EN- then. ,
And so they did.

A short time ago Gen. George S. Brad
ford of Bennington received letter
from some unknown person saying that
two men, named Leonard and Locke,
employed in the extensive knitting mill
of Mr.. Bradford, were stealing wool, and
had been for two years past. Last Fri
dav. the house of one of these men was
searched, and three hundred dollars worth
of wool was found secreted in the cellar.
Locke was arrested, but Leonard, seeing
the policemen coming to his house, ran
away, and has not been seen since
Locke informed Mr. Bradford that the
wool found was not a quarter of what
they had stolen, the rest having been
sold.

ADVERTISING.

Judicious advertising always pays.
If you have a good thing, advertise
it. If you havn't don't.
Never run down your opponents goods
in public. Let him do his own adver-
tising
If you don't mean to mind your own
business, it will not pay to advertise.
You can't eat enough in week to
last whole year, and you can't adver-
tise on that plan either.
A large advertisement at once, and
then discontinued, creates the impression
that the man has fzzled.
It's as true of advertising as of any
thing else in the world-if it's worth
doing at all it's worth doing we'll.
Injudicious advertising is like fishing
where are no fish. You need not let the
lines fall in the wrong place.
If you can arouse curiosity by an ad-
vertisement it is great point gained.
The fair sex don't hold all the curiosity
in the world
The men who advertise only once in
three months, forget that most folks can't
remember anything longer than about
saven days.
A standing advertisement, even though
a small one, is like sign over the store
ever in sight, and constant sugges-
tion to the public of something the pub
lie ought to have, and the place to get it.

WANTED IMMEDIATELY-MENl The
Star thinks the great want of the age is
men.
+, Men that neither brag nor run. Men
that neither flag nor finch men who
have courage without shouting it.
Men who know their places and fill
them.
Men who mind their own business.
Men who will not lie.
Men who are not too lazy to work, nor
too proud to be poor.
Men who are willing to eat what they

CREDIT MOBELIER.

l wish to rehearse what I've put into verse
Concerning our makers of laws.
l will show up the toughest, the rascaly toughest,
And say not a word about Dawes
I'll begin with Oaks Ames whom every blames
Because he at last told the truth
To lie he agreed, but did not succeed,
This three score and ten-year-old youth.
Old Oakes had dream, vllianOus- scheme
By which he his pockets could fill;
He would buy and sell votes, like potatoes and oats
And clean out old Uncle Sans till.
He went to James Brooks whom he knew by his IL oks
From swindle or fraud would not run;
He wanted some Credit Mobeler, and hadi
All stand in the name of his son.
Then Patterson came. and put down his name
For several shares in the stock;
This Reverend man, of the Puritan clan.
1t seems, to steal did not shock.
He next went to Schuyler, the veteran smiler
And nveigled him into his net;
He went to the book and his dividend took
AS indeed did the whole of the set.
Pennsylvanias Kelly whose cheeks shook like jelly,
With Garfield went down in the book,
When Wilson saw pelf-he dare not himself
In the Of his wife some shares took.
Then Ames laid in wait with his well-arranged bait
And many Congressman caught
Some nibbled and ran, but for every such man
He pulled i'll dozen he sought
The Union Pacific saw danger terrific
Ahead so they wenti trice
| To General Butler, the Government sutler,
In order to get his advice;
| Old Ben took the hint and gave them squint,
And they thought him the wisest of scholars
| He said he would tell them, 'twould be very well
If they'd hand him out six thousand dollars.
! They gave him check, which, according to Beck,
Was done at the instance of Alley
| But the one who sent Cofax, who, it seems hadn't
| told facts,
Now quietly sleeps in the Valley
Then Fort Fishers Hero disciple of Nero
! Said he, Tell lie and stick to it,
| Now lie every man just all that you can
And you'll not have occasion to rue it!
| But man named McComb who chanced to come home
| And found what they all were about:
He told what he knew, which was every word true,
And III that way the story got out.
But they fbbed and they lied and every one tired
To see which could outlie the other;
| Schuyler went to the grave for witness to save,
And he also called on his wife's mother.
But Poland's Committee, the more is the pity,
Determined they all were too blame
Their votes they had sold for silver and gold
And they all were incuraby lame.
They said to expel them would be very well
And Danish them all from the forum;
But the house didn't dare to eXpel them, for there
Might not be enough left for quorum.

Men whom the lust of office does not kill,
Men whom the spoils of Office cannot buy;

THE SALARY STEAL.

Uncle Sam had roost for his hens,
Where they roasted by thousands and tens
The motion to rob it was Ben's.
Hired men of my uncle, feel"
Said Ben, in solemn appeal,
Low wages do prompt us to steal"
The force of this moral idee
Was so mighty and powerful you see,
Not to do 1t they couldn't agree.
So the hearties they gave Ben boost,
And his fingers then suddenly noosed
Two pullets per man from the roost.
Uncle Sam is now watching the spot,
To discover man who will not
Go home with foul in his pot.

HAPPY CHILDREN.

AS house-plants cannot flourish with
out sunshine, so children cannot thrive
and be happy without love. How radi-
ent are their light faces, as they re-
spond to tones and words of affection
from the lips of their parents Little
they know of the deep solicitude, of the
constant care exercised toward them
but they do fully understand and ap-
preciate protestations of love and tender
ness. Why should we be chary of these
when they cost only speaking? 81 know
now," said lady not long ago, ''that
my mother loved me tenderly, but du-
ring all my childhood [ doubted it. If
were really dear to her, Iqueried, why
did she never tell me so? Why did she
never caress me, and assure me of her
love? She thought her actions spoke
loudly enough, without words. [ could
not read her actions then as [ can now,
and how [ longed to hear her call me
loving names, and to have her wrap me
in the sweet embrace of her strong moth
er love" Many little heart aches just
as this lady's did, and can be made hap
pier by the spontaneous utterances of
maternal affection than by beads, or
dolls, fine clothes, or costly toys.
Children who grow up in this con-
slant atmosphere of love are rarely mis-
chievous, never vicious. The mlghtiest
of all agencies to lead the young in paths
of virtue is in the hands of parents, and
to command this agency they need but
give expression to the natural overflow
of their hearts.
Children, to be happy, need encour-
agement and praise. 1t is not enough
that they escape censure. Negatives are
always cold and blank. Our little ones
want warm, positive approval when they
have done right thus they will be made
to feel that the paths of wisdom are
paths of pleasantness and peace.

How TO TELL AN HONEST MANA
hotel keeper gives the New York corre-
spondent of the st. Louis Globe rule
for detecting honesty, which he thus re-
counts: Talking with a hotel keeper
the other day, | remarked that in a
large city like this, he must lose
good deal by transient customers, who
would go away and forget to pay their
bills. He replied: '.Oh, no, never
lose much money by folks of that sort.
| have made it rule of my house,
whenever man wants room and has
no baggage, to demand pay in advance,
as is usual. If he manifests no objec-
tion, and puts his hand into his pocket
for money, l tell him it is all right !;
that he can pay just as we'll when he
goes away. That kind of man pays.
But there is another sort of fellow who,
when informed of the rule, pretends to
be very indignant, insisting that he is a
gentleman, by, and is not in the hab-
it of having his name questioned or his
honesty doubted. In such case, | in
variably insist on the productions of the
funds, for 1 know if | don't get them
then | should never get them in the
world. Men who talk about their hon.
or, and assume to be insulted when re.
quested to pay, can be depended on fol
frst-class dead-beats. !"

A LAUGHING PLANT.-A singular veg
etable phenomenon has been discovered
during recent explorations in Arabia
1t is called the laughing plant, from the
effect which is produced by the seeds.
When they are pulverized and eaten in
small quantities, the person eating them
will soon begin to laugh loudly, then to
sing, dance, and do all manner of absurd
things. This lasts for about an hour,
after which he goes to sleep, utterly un-
conscious of what has occurred. 1t has
been suggested that this plant might be
made substitute for alcohol, and that
it would have the advantage of being
cheaper, until the Government should
see the trick, and commence to tax it
But it is scarcely probable that the Ara
bian plant could in fact be made popu-
lar in that capacity, for it does not ap-
pear that it inspires the person who par
takes Of it with desire to whip his
wife, murder his mother, or indulge in
many singular acts which the alcohol of
the period moves one to perpetrate.
