How 10 Make u Mustard Plaster.

How many people are there who know
how to make mustard plaster? Not
one in hundred, and yet physicians
prescribe their application, never telling
how to make them, for the simple reason
that the doctors themselves do not know
as rule. The ordinary way is to mix
the mustard with water, tempering it
with a little -four, but such plaster rs
that makes is abominable. Before il is
half done its work ii begins to blister ihe
patient, and leaves him finally with a
painful hayed spot, after having pro-
duced far less effect in a beneficial way
than was intended. A mustard plaster
should never make blister. To make
a mustard plaster, then, use no water,
but mix the mustard with the white of
an egg and the result will be a plaster
that will draw" perfectly, but will not
produce blister, no matter how long il
is allowed to remain upon the part.

TIE only logical reason that can be
given for the existence of standing ar
my in any nation /, to have the means
To repel invasion, rc'is, political coercion
and subiuc rebellion. The necessity for
armies in Germany, Frauce and Austria
is manifest. If England had not colo.
nies she would not need military estah-
lishmcut, Her navy would suffice
to protect her territory and commerce.

Ii l. not possible TO find in the relations
Of our States cause for another war 10
overthrow the Government and lcca,t
the Union. What Justification is there,
then, for the existence of our army of
thirty thousand men? There are wan
dcring, ihieving, numbering bands of In
dianS within our territory which require
watching aud furnishing. Eight thous-
aud men will amply suffice for this pur-
pose. Twenty-Five thousand men, there
fore, are maintained by our Taxpayers
in lives Of .he most Improbable idleness.
They should he sent back To useful labor
forthwith. A large standing army in
the United States in time of peace is
solecism unworthy of rational people.
IL is AN absurd. costly sham, which
should be attacked by every man in the
country who honestly desires to stop the
waste Of public morey.

Two pair.--Or Jacks.

II was Mr.. simmons deal. was the
oldest man, and the blind was three
calls seven. Ike Raggles saw it; then
il was rises by Jones to fifteen for to
PLAY. Brown came in, and also the
dealer stayed. Then it took me twelve
to make il good, which ! put up, and ]
remarked to the society that it would
cost only twenty five more io- the draw.
Every last gentleman stayed, but it was
not risen any higher. Then the dealer
saws to me. "lIow many will you take;"
Saws I, "a card" had aces and
kings, and got an ace in the draw. Ike
took three and Jones two. but Brown
had enough, and told the dealer to help
hisself, which he took only five. There
was now about a hundred and ninety
chips on the board. Ike bet one, Jones
went one better and Brown raised it TO
twentv-bccause he stood pat. The
dealer said that his'n was valued at
twenty more. Then said /, GLOW ma
nv does it take me?" Some one said
forty chips" which | invested likewise,
with sixty better. Then all passed up
to Brown. and wanted him bad to stay
with his steal, but his sand gave out and
he passed Says the dealer To me, "iIow
many did you draw" Says |, "a card"
well" says he, IL don't want to lay
down this hand; will bet sixty more
than YOU" Now the dealer was
stranger Ike, to our party. He was
from the country and didn't know much
about d. p. So | thought it was my
charitable duty to let him down easy, so
| only called him. "What have you
gotT said |. Two pairs," said Mr..
Simmons. Then it was my timo to be
-orry, for | had an ace fall on kings.
"But," said the genial Simmons, ''mine
Is two pair Of jacks!' Then | said
"O!" and put ON my hat and went
down in the street 10 look for Christmas.
As went out the door Brown asked me
how many took? But Brown always
was a person which will kick person
when he is down.

The Average Niger Farmer.

The average nigger farmer buys an old

for part Of the crop or so many bales
Of cotton, gets bis tools in any way he
can, buys corn and bacon, for which he
gives lien on his crop; and then about
! the middle Of April he commences to pre-
pare for planting corn, laying of in rows
to break out the middles at some indef,
mite future day. Corn planting over, be

mule or horse to a crazy, one-ox cart and
oil he goes to hunt cotton seed. Well,
after cotton planting, then for fish or
hunt. Some June Monday morning he
wakes up about two or three hours by sun,
and, after breakfast, he bitches up his
mule to run around his corn treating
his cotton in the same way, he proceeds
to chopping Then for another frolic, to
say nothing about "big meetings" two or
three days in the week, and to town ut
feast every Saturday. After this FASH
ion he gets through the year. lIe then
takes what little cotton he makes, along
with little he don't make, to market,
and sells il for provision bills and mean
whisky, returns his mule to the owner,
and goes home broke, consoling himself
by saying, "lf didn't get any money,
