MARRIED MEN AND ST. PETER
Once upon time there were two friends
who were greatly attached to each other,
and who agreed that whichever of them
died first should appear to the other, and
tell him how matters went in the other
world. They were both married men,
and the first who died fulfilled his prom
ise, and appeared to his friend.
"How do you get On?" asked the lat
ter.
Famously," replied the ghost.
when | presented myself at the gate
above, st. Peter said to me: what has
been thy life . 'Senor,' replied, 7 am
a poor man; was married. Say no
more said his holiness; pass in, you
have gone through purgatOry, and now
you may enter into glory n''
Then the apparition vanished, leaving
his friend greatly satisfied and consoled.
In process of time his wife died, and
he married again. When the hour ar
rived that he was carried out Ofhis house,
feet foremost, he presented himself in
high spirits to st. Peter
"'What has been thy life ?n asked tho
saint.
"I was married twice." replied the
new conner confidently taking step in
advance.
Back, gossip, back" cried St. Peter,
locking the gate in his face; "there is
no room in heaven for born idiOts.n

SULPHATE OF COPPER IN COFFEE
Where will this wicked and adulterating
generation stop? People used to talk
of taking whisky straight, but even that
ancient beverage no longer comes pure
from the still, but is mixed with other
delirium- ucingingredients
until it smells of the snakes that lurk
within it. We have no time to name a
tithe of the many authorizations of arti-
cles of drink and food which are con-
stantly exposed, but merely note the
last which is reported in the Cincinnati
Gazette of Monday:
Acting upon hint recently presented
by the daily press, Mr.. August Hinkel,
an apOthecary of Hamilton, tested the
purity OF about pound and half of
BILE grocer at a respectable price, by
pouring over it about quart of tepid
water. The water, poured off about
five minutes afterward, was of deep
green color. 1t was thrown out, how
ever, before an examination was made
OF 1T, and the test was accordingly re-
peated, upon the same coffee, this time
with cold water, in which the coffee was
allowed to remain about ten minutes.
When poured off it was also dark green,
though perhaps hardly so deeply color
ed as the first, and was found to be q
clear solution of sulphate of copper.
This adulteration seems to be used for
the purpose of equalizing the color of
the beans, and SO cover the defects of
rOttOn grains as to render them indis-
Roasted coffee probably contains Gs: as
much sulphate of copper as the green,
although il. is less apparent. The effect
of its use is felt in pains and coIics,
which would be much more general ex-
cept for the free use in the West of su-
gar with coffee, sugar being an antidote
for copper.-[Galveston News.

CHEAP MosQUITo BAR.-There is q
cheap mosquito bar in vogue among the
plantation hands and boatmen in some
parts of the South, which answers every
purpose to the letter: it is common coal
oil. A small quantity of the oil is drop
ped on a piece of cotton and then sdueez-
ed out as dry as possible; after which
the cotton is rubbed over the face and
hands. No mosquito will alight where
the scent has been left. I have tried it
and then exposed myself to clouds OF

periencing the least annoyance. Thous-

A WARNING FROM BEYOND THE
GRAvE.-About three miles southeast
Of the city of Schenectady the highway
is intersected by the New York Central
Railroad. At this point an aged couple,
Mr.. and Mrs. W., well known to all the
citizens, returning home from an even,
ing drive, were struck and instantly
killed by the train due in Schenectady
at 6 p. m. This accident occurred at ten
minutes before p. m.
AT ten minutes past 5 lady in the
ganiZation, and intimately acquainted
with the unfortunate couple, an
sWered ring at the front door Of her
house, heard by both her husband and
sister. She found standing at her door
an elderly lady, whom she had never be-
fore seen, dressed in the fashion of years
long since gone by. The stranger said
nothing, when the lady of the house
opened the conversation by observing:
{" do not know you; do you wish any
thing9n -.
Nor I you," replied the old lady.
Send down to the 6 o'clock train the
bodies of Mr.. and Mrs. W. will be on it.D
The old lady then walked off. Mrs. G.
Immediately told her husband, who was
in the hOnse, and asked him to go down
to the depot, which was not at any great
distance. He, however, ridiculed his
Wffeand her nervous apprehensions but
being again urged, went down to the de-
pot to find that the train had not yet ar
rived, and no report of any accident. He
returned home at $40 even yet before
the aecident-to laugh at his wife and
her fears. 81 #e=a Mz. -#
The train arrived little late, and in a
few minutes messenger rushed up to
say that the dead bodies of the old cou-
pie were on the train, and to request Mr..
c. to come down, which he did, and
helped them off. The messenger was
sent mp to Mr.. lin consequence of his
first visit and inquiries. There were no
means of telegraphic communication
with the place where the accident hap
pened.I Afterward, in describing the
appearance of the lady to a sister of Mrs.
W., she recognized it at once as faith
full portrayal of. her mother, who had
been dead many years. *f
