AMERICAN CHEEBE PRODUCTION.

IN Iarptr's Magazine for November is On
interesting pnper on tho wonderful growth Of
the American production md trade i'll cheese.
The businoss is Of comparatively modorn
origin. The manufacture Of cheese in Her
kimcr County, Now York, dates back prior to
1870, but, while tho establishments for tho
manufacture Increased, 1t was carried on by
ench dairy.hrm from its own materials. lu
1871 there WIS MI extensive dairy farm in
Oneida County, New York, carried on by
JESSE WILLIAMS. Ills cheese had high rep.
utation. In that year one Of his Sons mar
ricl aud wont to live on dairy-far In tho
neighborhool Of Liz father's establishment.
The father desired to hnve this farln produce
cheese like his own,-both to DO
sold together. The 6on was not u
skilled manufacturer, and tho father could
nor personally attond to both farms. At last
MI escape from the Quandary was furnished
by tho expedient Of tnking tho milk from the
sons far,n to the factory Of the father. This
was tho beginning Of the associated method
Of making cllecso. Tile system OF each man
mixing his own cheese gradually gavo way,
and one factory became tho consumer Of all
tho milk brought to it. Tho American fac.
tory system, thus suggested aud begun, has
now become general, aud las extended over
all parts OF tlo United States, and has been
adopted in various parts Of Europe.
III tho gamo twenty-five years tho home
consumption md the export OF American
cheese has grown wonderfully. There arc
6oo factories in the State Of Now York alone.

precisely as 1t WA received by III. II the

dead largely in tho articles Of primo necessity,

We are willing to give Cincinnati credit
for having a large number of banks which

This is true, to grent extent, Of alt other
Western cities, and in aiso truo of Chicago.
VIC are willing to conccdo to Cinciuati any
thing her papers nlny ask; VIC merely used
the official figures obtained from Washington,
mud llat1 no authority to go behind them, and
tho intination that we doctored the figures
to do injury to Cincinnati is as great a libel
on our intelligence and kindly disposition to-

Running for Office.

| never ran for office but once. AT
the earnest solicitation of some OF
my friends, in an unguarded mo-
ment, 1 allowed myself to be an
mounced as candidate for the office
of Justice of the Peace. Previous to
this fool move, l had been consid-
cred decent sort of 4 man, but the
next day when the papers came out
they were filled with accounts of my
previous history that would have
curdled the blood of Digger Indian.
A susceptible public was gravely in
formed that l was not fit for the of
fee; that was almost a fool, besides
l had come West under very sus-
picious circumstances. / had starved
my dead grandmother to death and
then sold her remains to a soap fac
tory. l had stolen hand organ
from a poor blind cripple and ran
away with the proceeds. had sold
my grandfather's coffin for $l4, and
buried the old gent in a boot box.
In utter despair rushed around to
headquarters, withdrew my name and
swore solemn swear that l would
never indulge in politics again. And
l never will.-JOhn Quill.

Damaged Men.

You can see any day in the streets
of any city, men who look damaged.
Men, too, of. good original material,
who started out in life with generous
aspirations. Once. it was said that
they were bright, promising lads;
once they looked happily to the faces
of mothers, whose daily breath was 4
PRAYER for their purity and peace.
All! what if some of them have
vowed their souls away to confiding
wives who silently wonder what can
be the meaning of this change, the
cold, slow creeping shadow, that is
coming over the house and heart.
Going to the bad! The spell of
evil companionship; the willingness
to hold and use money not honestly
gained; the stealthy, seductive,
plausible advance of the appetite for
strong drink; the treacherous fasci-
nation for the gaming table; the
gradual loss of interest in business
and in doings which build man up;
the rapid weakening of all noble pur-
poses; the decay of manliness; the
recklessness and blasphemy against
fate; the sullen despair Of ever
breaking the chains of evil habit;
what victories of shame and con
tempt, what harvests of hell have
grown from such seed as this? Sheer,
if Won will like fool. At the su0peS-
tion of reform, morals, religion
every man knows in his better moods
that all there is of true life is per
sonal virtue and rectitude of charac-
ter. Going to the bad! But there
is hope. Earth and heaven are full
of hands ever reaching to help the
lost man back to the better way,
All the good there is in the universe
is in sympathy with that little good
ness which inwardly reproves and

The Pi Plant.

The pi plant il luxurious weed,
that is cultivated in the garden, and
the more it iz kut off the better it
grows.
Out of the stalk the pi il made,
and it IL the first pi out ov green
sass that yu kan git in the spring.
The pi plant IL az sour az a coun-
try school marin, and one pound ov
plant takes four pounds ov sugar to
sOothe it.
There il sum pholks think that
this pi kan beat the pumkin pi, but
right here IL WHARF they err.
They dassent bet on it.
When emmy man tells me that
sutch and sutch pi kan beat the
pumkin, 1 konsider that man may
have sense enugh to sett on jury,
or perhaps assist in tending a toll
gate, but for all the important dutys
ov life he iz of no more use than an
axe without emmy handle.
But pi plant il better than no pl,
bnt it does take in the sugar the darn
dest.
IfIwas going into the pi plant pi
spekulashun, l should want part
ner, and / should let him furnish the
sugar and l would put up the roots,
and we would divide the profits
