laid across the breast and left one under
the back. At dawn search was begun by
large party for the missing head, books
and water proof cloak. About eight
o'clock Horace Aver found the head part
~ rolled up in the waterproof about sew
enty-five rods northwest Of where the body
was found, in the same piece of woods
1t was partially uncovered, resting on
the water proof, which was carefully
thrown over it, but not quite conceal
ing it. There was a wound on each
side some inches long, and o cut
on the top. On the right cheek there
was welldefined print of a bootheel,
medium size. There was also a cut on
her cheek, just front of the LETT ear, that
was probably made by some sharp instru-
ment. A few minutes later the books
were found, and near by a heavy oak
stick considerably stained with blood.
At about ten o'clock Deputy.Sheriff
Hildreth took one William Drew, of Penn
broke, into custody on suspicion. Drew is
a young man, twenty-five years of age, of
dissolute habits, and lives about half
mile back of the woods where the murder
was committed. He is married to a wom-
an fully as dissolute. 1t was thought adj
visable to lock him up. Though there is
as yet no direct proof pointing to him as
the assassin, Officer Hildreth was obliged
to draw his pistol on the crowd when he
locked Drew up at Suncook.
A negro named Charles Woods has also
been arrested on suspicion of being con-
cerned in the crime.

respondent writes: A New York merchant
died the other day whose early life has a
good lesson for young men to copy. He
went as boy into the "swamp" and took
the rough work connected with the leather
business. At his mothers request he
joined Sunday-school From that he
joined the church. He was not only Pc
culiar for his readiness to work but his
readiness to give. There was hardly any
thing started that he did not help along in
an humble way with his humble means.
His church was in tight place, as New
York churches are apt to be. The men,
bers were assessed generally, and he was
assessed $25. He couldn't have raised
that sum if he had sold all his clothes and
trinkets. One day a man came into the
yard and showed him the skin of musk
rat, told him how he caught the animal
and cured the skin. He said nothing, but
that nj ght after work was done he went
down to the dock and captured few rats
He kept the work up for a week. He
cured the skins and found ready sale for
them. Before the subscription became
due he had $25 and a handsome balance
over. He was sensible enough to see the
handsome business open to him. He
turned out to be a firstclass business man
and died leaving fortune of half MILL

A Happy Couple.

A man should always be a little older, a
little Drawer, and a little stronger, and a
little wiser, and little more in love with
her than she is with him. A woman should
always be a little younger, and a little
prettier, and little more considerate than
her husband. He should bestow upon
her all his worldly goods, and she should
take good care of them. He may owe her
every care and tenderness that affection
can prompt; but pecuniary Indebtedness
to her will become burthen. Better live
on a crust that he earns than on a fortune
she has brought him.
Neither must be jealous, nor give the
other cause for jealousy. Neither must
encourage sentimental friendships with
the opposite sex. Perfect confidence in
each other, and reticence concerning their
mutual affairs, even to members of their
own families, is first necessity.
A wife should dress herself becomingly
whenever she expects to meet her hus
bands eye. The man should not grow
slovenly, even at home. Faultfinding,
long arguments or seedlings end the hap
piness that begins in kisses and love.mak.
ing. Sisters and brothers may quarrel
and snake up" Lovers are lovers nc
longer after disturbances occur, and mar.
ried people who are not lovers are bound
by red-hot chains. If q man admires his
wife most in striped calico, she is silly moi
to wear it.-Erch17sQe.

Trained Memory.

Much is said contemptuously of men,
oriter Rotations. A child is given a
lesson and he is expected on the next day,
or at the next hour, to give not the matter
of the lesson, but learned disquisition on
the same subject, or at least a skillful
paraphrase of the text.
This is all very we'll in theory, but how
IS it in practice? Time was when the
teacher, with book in hand, watched and
even pointed to each word as it was
spoken by the pupil. But in trying to
shake off the chains of that textbook
slavery we have made ourselves a little
ridiculous by compelling little children,
or attempting to compel them, to handle
written discourse with the skill of art and
judgment of maturity.
Some faithfulness to the author in hand
is not amiss in recitation. This disre-
gard of the authors words encouraged by
SO many practical schoolmasters has
brought about a looseness and inaccuracy
OF expression, and consequently cloudi-
ness of thought, that is as much to be de-
plored as the parrot-like performances of
the older method.
Moreover, one Of the chief objects of
education is to cultivate the memory, and
not only memory, but an exact memory.
Nature, by unmistakable signs, has indi-
Gated that early youth is the time in
which this should be done. But how can
it be done if the only method at hand, tie
learning Of paragraphs by heart, be studi'
ously and persistently discouraged?
There is time for all thin gs and a
place for all things, even for the practice
of committing printed matter to memory.
The only direction to be needed is that it
lV wit fair
standing Of the meaning of the language
so memorized. This may easily be done
by the teachers asking the definition of
some particular words, or paraphrase of
the more complex passages.
Language memorized gives fluency, an
accomplishment in which Americans do
not excel. The practice of considering
everything deliberately, of attempting to
recite matter imperfectly learned, of put.
ting memory's burden on the back of
reasoning, which prevails in our schools
and colleges, has resulted in our public
speakers being guilty of disgraceful
drawing, repetition and hesitation, for
which the more disgraceful written dis
course is the usual remedy. Your ready,
fluent, graceful, extemporaneous speakers
are really those VINO, in youth, trained
their memory, in spite of the sneers of the
schoolmasters and the laxity of the
schools. Say what you may, grace and
fuency in delivery, pointed paragraphs,
rounded periods and, better than all, the
trick of stopping when one is done can
be attained only by training the memory
for ready recitation at school. The very
etymology of the word re-cite shows what
recitation should be-NatioaaL Teachers

The Strange Disease.

LIKE the thief at night, it steals in upon
us unawares. The patients have pains
about the chest and sides, and sometimes in
the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has bad taste, especially in the
morning. A sort of sticky slime collects
about the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is a feeling like heavy load on the
stomach, sometimes faint, all-gone sensa-
ton at the pit of the stomach, which food
does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the
hands and fvct become cold and feel clam
my. After awhile cough sets in, at first
dry, but after few months it is attended
with greenish-colorcd eXpcctoration. The
patient feels tired all the while, and sleep
does not appear to afford any rest After y
time he becomes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forcbodings. There is
a giddiness, sort of whirling sensation in
the head when rising up suddenly. Inc
bowels become costive, the skin is dry and
hot at times. The blood becomes thick and
stagnant, the whites of the eyes become
tingcd with yellow, the urine is scanty and
high colorcd, dcpositing sediment after
standing. There is frequently splitting up
of the food, sometimes with a sour taste
and sometimes a swedish taste. This is
frequently attended with palpitation of the
heart. The vision becomes impaired with
spots before the eyes. There is a feeling Of
these symptoms do not make their appear
ance at one time, but during the various
stages they are in turn present 1t is
thought that nearly one-third of our popu-
lation has this disease in some of its varied
forms. 1t has been found that medical men
have mistaken the nature of this disease.
Some have treated it for liver complaint,
some for dyspepsia, others for kidney dis
ease, ETC., etc, but none Of these various
kinds of treatment have been attended with
success. It is found, however, that the

A Boys Thrilling Ride.

Yesterday afternoon when the west
bound freight train halted at Centralia
several little boys, as is usual at that place,
began to amuse themselves by playing
"hide and go seek" under the cars. One
little fellow, Alvin Miller by name, and
only four and half years of age. think
ing to hide more securely than the others,
climbed upon the brake bar of one Of the
cars, and while in this position the train
unexpectedly pulled out. The frantic
screams of the little fellow as he realized
his perilous situation attracted the atten-
ton of all who happened to be near at
hand, but, unfortunately, the train had
started out under a full head of steam,
with orders to reach Moberly without
stopping, and nothing could be done.
Some one Immediately telegraphed to the
nearest telegraph station, Sturgeon, but
the operator being out, telegram was
sent to Renick to have the train stopped
Arriving there, the officers of the train
made search, but the boy was missing.
The anxious crowd at Centralia, receiving
this information, at once dispatched a
hand-car to search for the manged re-
mains of the boy, for it was natural in
ference that he had been crushed in the
fall from the swiftly moving train. The
party traversed twelve long and weary
miles of road, carefully scrutinizing every
inch, in momentary expectation of finding
the boys bleeding body. But, strange to
relate, they found him at house near the
railroad, four miles west of Sturgeon,
badly bruised, his head cut and back
scratched, but still alive. The brave little
fellow had ridden that distance astride the
brake-bar, clinging to it with the grip of
death, until, his hat falling of, he made a
grab to catch it, which loosened his hold,
and he fell off and eight cars passed over
him. He got up and walked back mile
and half to house, where he was kind
ly cared for and physician called in.
He was taken back to Centralia and is
doing we'll, and will in day or two prob
ably be out again.
He, it seems, is an adopted son of Mr..
James Felps, of Centralia, and undoubted-
ly is little fellow Of remarkable nerve.
Few men who have lived three-score and
ten can claim such dangerous experience.
