Autumn although the most radiant portion of
the American year, has its drawbacks. The heavy
evening dews and morning vapors and the great
disparity in temperature between the night and
day, give rise to many painful disturbances OF the
bowels, such as collie, cholera morhns, darrhea
and d seutery The digestive organs also
flyorably affected by the change of season, and
dyspcptics generally suffer most severely during
the fall. arrangements of the liver are likewise
common, and masmatic fcvers prevail in newly
settled districts and low-lyng and ma1shy locali-
ties. These unpleasant contingencies of the

MANA GING A HTSBA ND-THE DAN-
BURl' MODE.

A hot-tempered Danbury woman who
finds considerable trouble in persuading
her husband to furnish kindlings, and
then is obliged to do it herself, read in
a religious paper, Monday, of how n
wife induced a wicked husband to be-
come one of the most affectionate and
hopeful of men by being invariably
calm and loving with him. The story
made deep impression upon her, and
when she started the fire that noon, she
put a pair of rubbers among the wood.
Then she tied handkerchief across her
nose, and went on with her work. When
the husband reached the gate he paused,
fetched a sniff that made hole in
the atmosphere, and then went around
to the back of the house, and fetched
another sniff that had an equally dam
aging effect on the atmosphere. He
stared into the next yard and up at his
own house, and felt in his pockets, and
was about to go around to the front
again, when his wife thrust her head
out of the window and said, Why
don't you come in the. house, you old
fool Come in and get your dinner,
and let me read an article to you from
the (hristian secretary, you old rip.
Come in and see how nice it is to get
dinner with nothing to burn but rub
bers, you whited sepulcher. Come in
here, [ tell you, before 1 lose my tenn
per, and say what / oughtn't to-" AT
this invitation he went in, going upon
the stoop and to the door very slowly,
but on opening the door, disappeared
inside with marvellous suldenness. The
neighbors say he was cutting wood all
that afternoon, and thinking of the re-
ligious press.-Danbury Ne,OS.

HAIL, Welded LOVE.

The Danbury NeWs man remarks:
You know her. She lives on your
street. Her features are either pinched
or full and frowsy Her dress is wet,
ill-ttting, and of no particular pattern !;
her slippers are broken down her hair
is umcombed ; her voice is either shrill
or coarse. You have seen her stand out
III the back yard, and put bare arm up
to her eyes, and under it peer out to the
fence or barn, where a man in an i'll
fitting coat is searching for something,
and have heard her shout" John
can't George bring me some water?'
And you have heard him cry back
" If he don't get that water | will take
every inch of flesh from his bones"
And when you have looked at her again,
does it seem possible that those angry
eyes have dropped in maidenly reserve,
or raised in coquettish light to the face
OF the man III the ill-itting coat. Can
you, by any possible wrench of the i'm
aginatlon, conceive of his tenderly pass
ing peppermints to her ; of his taking
that hand in his and bashfully squeezing
1t. But it was so. Many "God bless
you has been uttered above that bare
head, many Il kiss pressed on that I'M
combed hair. The tightly compressed
lips have lovingly framed tender invita-
lions to him to take another bite Of cake

DESTRUCTION IN DIsGUIsE.-It is a
fact that mixtures of bad liquors and
acid astringents are often given for
medicines. They are potent to dcstroy!
and may be safely warranted to ruin,
morally and physically, any human
being that sticks to them long enough.
More drunkards have been made by
these villainous connections, labeled
medicines, than by the liquors of COM
merce. Alcoholic poisons, advertised
us remedies, are more mischievous than
tavern drains. For intermittent and re-
mittent fevers, Us well as all other dis
eases which these fiery frauds are falsely
certified to relieve, Dir. WALKERS VINE
GAR BrrTERs, the nc pi'ts ultra of vege-
table medicines, is a positive cure. But

gayest.
New Orleans, the most Frenchy, the
most languishing, the longest hair, and
the sprawlingest dresses.

JEFFERSON'S TEN RIFLES.

Jefferson's ten rules are good, yet es-
pecially so for those who have the train
ing of the pupils in our public schools.
They are so choice and concise, and
embody so much of value, that it would
be well if they were clipped out and
put where we could see them often.
They read as follows:
Never put off till tomorrow what
you can do to-day.
Never trouble another for what you
can do yourself.
Never spend your money before you
have it.
Never buy what you do not want be-
cause it is cheap.
Pride costs more than hunger, thirst
and cold.
We seldom repent of having eaten too
little.
Nothing is troublesome that we do
willingly.
How much pain the evils have cost us
that have never happened !
Take things always by the smooth
handle.
When angry count ten before you
speak if very angry, count hundred

overseers being on guard to keep them
constantly in notion" He found the
same proportion of women at work on
all the new buildings, and there must be
many thousands of them doing this spe-
cies of work in Vienna. They are both
young, middle-aged and old, but al
seem strong and healthy. Mr.. Fulton
further says cat dinner-time they
swarm into the shops to purchase a
piece of brown bread and fat bacon
and a mug of beer, and eat their dinner
sitting on the curb-stones. Their wages
are one form, or forty-cight cents per
day and I am assured by n gentleman
resident here that most of them sleep
about the buildings on shavings, or
in barns or sheds, having no homes"

AN EFFICIENT ARECRO W.

A farmer in Washington county, Ky,
recently challenged a visitor to find in
his crib single grain of corn bitten by
rat or mouse. The visitor, having
given it up after a protracted search, in
quired the reason, and was shown Il
large COW snake resposing quietly in n
corner of the crib. The snake, the
farmer says, has lived in his crib for the
past two years, and has destroyed or
frightened away all the rats and mice
that once infested the locality. Such
snakes ought to be encouraged.

SOMETHING ABOUT DVER1ISING.

SOMETHING ABOUT ADVERTISING.
1t is time all business men should
understand that, with here and there a
special exception, the newspaper is par
excellence the only medium for adver
Using that is worth their serious atten-
ton. The newspaper is a thing of life,
visible fact, sure of its circulation,
certain to be read. 1t constantly renews
its youth daily or weekly it appears
afresh, containing many old faces, MAX
ing themselves constantly more and
more familiar, but holding also fresh
facts, the latest news, the last wonder
even in its gossip, it gives the matter of
its time and tells us what is alive and
moving, up to TIE very date it bears,
while its advertising columns show what
is being done in commercial circles and
lay before it's readers concise sum-
mary of those new ideas through which
money is made by their fellows. AS
compared with all other advertising
methods it's charges are reasonable, and
its promises modest, and while the
business man is supporting it, he is,
moreover, gaining from it in more ways
than he may see at first sight.
How is it on the other hand with the
" Hotel Albums" strangers Guides, -
and such like volumes introduced to the
merchant by the supple young solicitor,
as 1.-The greatest mejum of the age, "
or "the grandest advertising scheme
ever projected ?" 1t is true that the mer-
chant is promised ga circulation of
from five to ten thousand and copy
gratis to every hotel" But is the prom
Use kept ? are one thousand copies
printed Five hundred?-one hundred
The advertiser has no means of know
ing. 1T is too often the case that such
schemes are advertising traps which the
merchant blindly enters. In the news
paper every facility is offered him in
ascertaining the strength and probable
value of his investment, while, at the
same time, the newspaper must send its
issue to it's various subscribers, who pay
for it and are bound to read it. But
supposing the volumes referred to are
to be found in all the hotels who reads
them? You see hundreds of people in
hotel parlors with their newspaper, but
how many look over the old, dilapidat-
ed, margin scrubbed "Guide to Strang-
ers?" The moment such work is
published it becomes old The matter
and the pictures are already obsolete
before the last advertiser pays in. Have
these the influence of the family news
paper, choicest of household gods i?
Probably not. The "Hotel Album, "
if its publishers promises are kept, is
sent to divers hotels. Suppose for a
moment that strangers read them, of
what advantage is it as compared with
the paper which strikes the very heart
center of those from whom the merchant
expects his trade. And, last of all, the
Album gives him but one insertion.
One insertion for perhaps hundred
tolftio. Iie Sttlit tHloult "otlltt litthe
the merchants name household word
i'll the community from which he draws
his best custom-custom that he can
look after among people he knows
something about.
The question then arises, Why dc
merchants waste money in this kind OF
advertising % Perhaps the merchants
could best tell us if they would. --Ncecs-

now rs THIS FOR men,

The people of Fairplay, Colorado,
are the highest livers, altitudinally, on
the continent. The town lies at the
head of South Park, on the mountain
route between Denver and Santa Fe,
ninety-five miles from the former place.
1t is noted as the supply point for the
Mount Lincoln mining district. 1t has
IL population of about 1000, with the
usual number of stores, hotels, and
saloons, besides two banks and weekly
newspaper. 1t is the highest town in
the United States, it's altitude being
9,764 feet, nearly two miles above the
sea-level, and $500 feet above Mount
Washington. Its inhabitants, while
never experiencing the cheated term, :"
yet from June to September have the
luxury of moderately warm days and
cool nights, the monotony being occa-
sionally relieved by snow-storm in
August. Mount Lincoln towers above
the place to- a height of 10000
feet. All along it's sides, to within a
few yaros of the top, often enveloped
by clouds, and often above them, miners
and prospectors are busy developing or
seeking new discoveries.

on CENTENi RIANS.

In noticing book entitled Gilman
Longevity or, the Art of Prolonging
Ones Life by DR. Foissat, the Paris
correspondent of the London Times
says "Onc of the authors most distin-
guished colleagues, DIR. Despauix-Ader,
has published an account of this book
which is of rare interest, and in which
find that in 1919, among 10000, 900 in
habitants, Russia counted 1,7SO cente-
narians, of whom two were 100 years
old /; France counted $50 out of II popu-
lation of IS, 900, 600; Poland 90 to 4, 500, :
600; Sweden, II; Norway, 40; the
United States, 2,61S; Canada, Y, in a
population of about 1000 600; and
that i'll England 1O5 centcnarians died
every year. DIR. Despauix finds, too,
that the greater number of those cente-
narians were rather poor than rich,
peasants generally, soldiers, or priests.
1t is evident that it would be very hard
to draw any conclusion from these OBJ
scrvations, and attribute these cases of
longevity to particular causes, since
they occur in all parts of Europe-since
a life of ease is not one of the causes,
and neither the freedom of institutions
nor the mildness of climate seems to
contribute to it i'll any way. DR.. Des-
pauix, however, says that life appears
to be longer where the population is
least numerous.
