The Elevator Never Clogs.

AFToN, Iowa, Dec. l, 1874.
Mcssrs. Strother & Conklin, Cresco,
Iowa: In reply to your question as to
how ! liked my Edward Harvester, must
say it is far ahead of my expectations,
and is more than you recommended it to
be. cut 120 acres of wheat, oats and
barley. My oats were very badly lodged,
but with the Edward cut and saved them
all better than 1 could with any other
machine. l averaged through my harvest
from seven to ten acres per day in very
heavy grain. My two boys, Is and Is
years Of age, did all the binding with ease.
I can work early and late with my ma
chine, working equally we'll in the heavi-
est dews. The closed canvas on the e..
ward are far superior to the open canvas
on the Marsh. There is no possibility Of
grass or leaves falling throug GA and wind
ing the rollers, which of itself is a great
saving in time and trouble.
I also cut piece of clover and timothy
seed, and saved all the seed, while would
have lost at least one third on the open
canvases. The binders box is all o. K;
will pay expense of one man with grain
saved in it, which certainly is no small
item. Yours truly, :
JOHN CONWAY.

Mouse Of any longer taking the large, repul-
sive, gripping, drastic and nauseous pills, COM
posed Of crude and bulky ingredients, and put
upin cheap wood and pasteboard boxes, wien
we can, by a careful application OF chemical
science, extract all the cathartic and other me-
uicinal properties from the most valuable roots
and herbs, and concentrate them into a most
minnie Granule, scarcely larger than 4 mus
tard seed, that can be readily swallowed by
those of the most sensitive stomaclls and fas-
tidious tastes. Each Of Dr.. Pierce's Pleasant
Purgaaive Pellets represents, in NEST concern
trated form, as much cathartic power rs is en-
bodied in any of the large pills found for sale
in the drug stores. From their wonderful ca
tlartic power, in proportion to their size, PEG.
pie who have tried them are apt to suppose
that they are harsh or drastic in effect, but
such is not at all the case, the different active
medicinal principles OF which they are COM
posed being SO harmonized, one by the others,
as to produce most searching and thorough,
yet gently and kindly operating cathartic.
The Pellets are sold by dealers in Medicines.

REV. STARVED TO DEATH.

HIS congregation have kept him on q
small salary, which they did not pay.
Noticing that their minister's over .oat
was getting shabby, and his wife looked
very much troubled, the good people met
together and HAved to atone for the
past by giving him donation party. The
night came, the sle;ghs drove up, the
people stamped the snow clods off their
heels, and the party began. The most of
US had not eaten much during the day, in
order that our appetites might be sharp
and keen. Some had brought smoked
beef, and others bread, and others cheese,
and others tea, and others coffee,
and others turkeys and geese.
The few liberal souls who brought largely
and generously a:e but Titles and demand
ed no thanks; but we who had brought
twenty-five cents worth Of provisions ate
fifty cents worth and we who had brought
forty cents worth eight nearly to the
amount Of one dollar, taking away in our
handkerchiefs, for the children at home,
enough to make up the full dollar. The
carpets, which ought to have been replaced
three years ago by something better, were
about finished that night by the tramp.

of the minister's oats; for we had come

fifteen book.marks, more than enough to
put on the empty plates Of the parson-
age some day when the fare is short. We
added to the minister's library some fine
copies Of the "Patent Office Reports"
which had been franked us by our Con-
gresham in Washington at public ex-
pense. We ran our elbow through pane
of glass, which will help the ventilation of
the parsonage when the weather is warm.

BURRYING A MANALIHE.

TABLE MdNNERSl.

Ine taOle Is the place; at which the
family meet, and where there should be
the fleest md most unrestrained. social
intercourse. We eat to live; but the
mere animal necessity is lifted up and
glorified when the charms Of pleasant
conversation and Of mutual courtesy sur.
round: the custom. So far as the sus-
tanning Of life is concerned, that object
might be reached if each took his bread
and meat and retired to closet to eat it
alone. But there is spiritual life that
is to be fed and sustained, and it is
starved where there is no grace, not only
before, but during meal. -. :.
The great trouble with our American
life is, that it is too gloomy. We take
no time to entertain and amuse each
other. Not seldom does it happen in
some houses that meal progresses in
dead silence, except when it is necessary
to speak about the dishes, or to help
some one to potatoes or pie. This is al.
most as bad IS rudeness or quar-.
reling. There ought to be bright,
genial, sparkling talk, in which
the children should be allowed to Join.
There is no sense whatever in compelling
an intelligent child to sit like deaf mute
at the table; though, on the other hand,
children should not monopolize the con.
versAtion, nor be allowed to ask strings
of irrelevant questions. Every one should
prepare for the table by some little pro.
cess of dressing. The hair should be
smooth, the hands washed. the general
appearance Of each individual inviting,
and each should try to be as agreeable as
possible to every other..r It is quite won
derful how little freshening up of the
toilet freshens up the soul as we'll as the
face. So far, we ought all to be luxuri-
Gus. If the mother sees to it that her
school-boy sons always come to dinner
with clean hands and nails, and that her
daughters never dawdle into the room in
tawdry fiaery or soiled wrappers, she
will do more than she dreams Of in max.
ing them grow into real gentlemen and
ladies.
The table itself ought to have festive
look. Flowers have special grace on
the breakfast board. A dish of fruit
nicely arranged pleases the eye as we'll as
the palate at dinner. Clean linen, even
though coarse, and whole plates and cups,
with bright glass and silver, help appetite
along. A few well-cooked dishes, how.
ever plain, nicely served, will promote
health and happiness better than a vari-
ETY. ruined in the preparation.
Some housckeepers, with an eye to saw
ing trouble on washing day, have adopted
the marble oil.cloth instead of the white
danask for ordinary use. For our part,
We would prefer economy in any other
way. A fine white table.cloth, or buff
or crimson one occasionally for breakfast
or tea, will furnish forth the family feast
much more Observation-Disclosures at
Work.

HTE-STRING.

One day last week little boy who had
been standing for some time in front of q
drug store in Baltimore, enviously eye.
ing large reel, we'll provided with ''sim.
my dimmy' Irvine, IS the boys call it,
which was fastened to the top of the
counter, summoned up courage enough to
walk in and ask for = few yards with
which to fly his kite. The Doctor bears
the name Of being . good.naturcd man,
full Of humor. and very fond of the little
ones, but tho youngster approached him
ct time when he was out of his usual
mood, and he consequently gave mo-
for IN answer. The urchin hal made up
his mind to have some of shat cord''
anyhow, and he got it. On Thursday
morning the boy entered the store, &C.
companied by another boy and . dog.
Boy No. 2, having placed ! bottle on the
counter, demurely asked for five cents
worth Of ''sirup squills and pollygolic, -
and while the Doctor was filling the order,
boy No. l was tying the end of the
cord to the dogs tail. When the man
of medicine returned to the counter, the
reel was flying like fury. The Doctor
quietly reached for pallet knife, and,
having hung himself over the counter,
made desperate whack ut the Uranium
Of the youngster, who, he supposed, was
sitting on the floor helping himself. But
10! the boys and tho dog ''Bouncer" were
not there. The Doctor, having tried in
vain to stop his reel, was obliged to give
1t up on account of the heat it communi.
Gated to the palm Of his hand. When he
reached the door he beheld the boys upon
the sidewalk abouttw blocks of, and
'Bonncer" in the middle of the street
going ct the rate of forty knots IN hour,
the string pointing directly toward his
tail. Tue reel continued to spin for
sometime afterward, until it stopped o.
its own accord,
