AN OLD-TIME TEAMsTER.--He was an
old teamster, and knew not only every
inch of the road that led to the distant
market town to which we were going,
but every landlord, groom and barkeeper
on the way. A man of such vast geo.
graphical knowledge, and such extensive
and interesting acquaintance with men,
became to me most important person
age. When he had amused himself long
enough with stories told to excite my i'm
agination, he turned TO me shaply and
said
Boy, do you ever tell lies
Yes, sir" answered, without hesi-
tation.
You do? Then why didn't you lie
when l asked the question ?'
Because 1 never lie except to please
people," replied.
"Oh you are one of the story-tellers,
are you ?" he said, in tone Of severity.
Yes, SIR"
Well, then, you ought to be aogged.
If had storytelling boy would fog
it out of him. Truth, boy always stand
by the truth. 1t was only this time last
year that l was carrying load of goods
down the mountain for family the same
as yours, and there was a little boy who
went with me the same as you are going
now. L was sure L smelt tobacco. Said
st email toboooo , H. o,o,,, roJ l..
the face, and | charged him with having
some in his pocket. lie declared he had
none, and l said, We shall see what
will come to liars l pitied him, for
knew something terrible would happen.
A strap broke, and the horses started to
run, and off went the boy. / stopped
them as soon as l could, ran back and
picked him up insensible, with as hand
some plug of tobacco in his pocket as
you ever saw; and the rascal had stolen
it from his grandmother Always speak
the truth, my boy, always speak the
truth -
"And did you steal the tobacco from
him?" asked.
No, lad, took it and used it because
knew it would hurt him, and | could
not bear the thought of exposing him to
his grandmother"
DO you think lying is worse than
stealing?" l asked.
'That is something we can't settle. To-
bacco is very preserving and cleansing
to the teeth, and am obliged to use it.
Do you see that little building we are
coming to? That is Shows store; and
now if you are a boy that has any heart
any real heart-and if you have saved
up few pennies, you will go in there
and get stick Of candy for yourself and
plug Of tobacco for me. That would
be the equare thing for a boy to do who
stands by the truth, and wants to do q
good turn to the man that helps him
along )" and he looked me in the eye so
steadily and persuasively that resistance
was impossible, and my poor little purse
went back into my pocket painfully
empty Of that which had seemed like
wealth.-Hotldnd'S arthur Bon,s,castle

The general meeting formerly
announced commenced last evening.

earnestness was manifested. After
a few remarks by Enos g. Pray, of
this city, and prayer, q very in
structive and beautiful sermon was
delivered by DIR. Dengan Clark, of
Richmond. from Ephesians 1, 1914.
His theme was justification by faith
and sancti6cation by faith, making
his subject clear, pointed and prac-
tical. He most earnestly exhorted
every class to receive Christ in de-
iverance, both from the guilt and
power of sin. The meeting will
continue from day to day, there
being service TO- day and to morrow
at half past ten and seven o'clock
each day. A number Of prominent
minister's are already here, and
others are expected to-day. All

Moore's Rural New Yorker, the
ablest and most widely circulated
of the great agricultural papers
published in this country, givs it's
rarders the following timely and
cautious advice:
There is. q great deal of vicious
talk resulting from efforts of dem
agogues and partisans to arouse
the prejudice and passions of farm
ers and gain their confidence and
suferage-or their money. The
logical sequence Of it all win be
that the farmers will be worse
swindled by the seventh bad spirit
than they were by the first, If they
do not keep their heads clear and
cool and their eyes open.

A Remarkable Operation.

B. Franklin made his name "a
nous when he few his Kite and
brought down lightning from the
clouds which had been flying around
without paying it's way. Now we
not only fash through on wires,
but science has grappled electricity
and used it to perform miracles.
The Times reader will remember
when General Fitzpatrick returned
from Chill, three years since, of his
having remarkable operation per.
formed upon him by q physician in
New York, who removed large
tleshy formation from the General's 3
neck by filing it full Of needles and
then attaching galvanic battery
to it Ten minutes after the cur
rent of electricity was let on the
bunch had entirely disappeared.
A remarkable operation was per.
formed by Whitehall physician a
few days ago. A gentleman who
had been suffering from q supera-
bundance of adipose tissue, con
suited a physician, asking for relief
from his burden. The doctor told
him he could relieve him, if he
would consent to a painful opera
ton. The gentleman consented
and with the medical practitioner
entered the telegraph Office at this
place. The fat man was requested
to remove his coat and vest, after
which the physician surrounded
him with wires, attaching the ends
to powerful galvanic battery. At
a signal from the doctor, Manager
w. B. Eddy let on the current.
The patient writhed and twisted
when he felt the current passing
around him, still he stood like a
martyr. Presently he began to
shrink; he grew smaller and small
or, his clothing hung in bags about
his fast diminishing form; the doc
tor felt much pleased at the result
of his experiment., while the for
merly fat mans JOY was very great,
although he seemed to be suffering
most acute pain. All of a sudden
there was heard q loud clicking at
the instruments as if Pandemoni-
um's great hall had been let loose.
The operator sprang quickly to
answer the call. He ascertained it
was from the New York Office. An
answer came back as if some infu-
rated demon was at the other eni
of the wire s'What in thunder are
you about! Cut off your wires
quick-you are filing the New York
office with soap grease. Whitehall

The Milwaukee Wisconsin tells
this .After the crash Of 81. when
everybody was almos. scared to
death and the croakers predicted
that the country had gone to smash,
q dry goods house was opened in
this city, which proceeded on the
principle that in order to reach the
horded money in the pockets of
the people the proprietors must
sell at very reasonable prices and
advertise very largely. They work
ed vigorously upon this principle.
Their brother merchants who did
not advertise predicted that the
newcomers would, be ruined as
they paid too much for advertising.
Nevertheless, they persisted. In a
single year they paid $500 in gold
to the Daily Wisconsin for adver
tising, and at the end Of seven years
-thcy retired from business with the
fortune of 100000. while other
merchants on the same street, some
of them opposite their store, had
failed"
We remember q similar instance
among our own advertisers in the
panic of 1857. A merchant con-
tinued his advertising in our col
umns through the whole period of
stagnation, and Notwithstanding
many predictions that s.it wouldn't
pay" His testimony afterward
was that his sales were steady and
his profits satisfactory, while many
q merchant around him who
couldn't afford to ADVERTISE saw
his clerks stand idle behind the
counters. A financial panic does
not mean that no one has any mon
ey. There is plenty of money in
the country, and these who hoard
it are just the ones to be eager for
the bargains which fall in prices
holds out. But to buy they must
know where to buy, and the mer-
chant who tells them will receive
their cash.-N. Y. Evening Post.
