A Georgia journal asserts that
Chez Squirch, an Indian, and Ma
bib, his wife, residing in Graham
county, are aged respectively 175
and 100 years.
The Military Department at OF
tawa, Canada, recently granted
pensions tie Armie Meron, Peter
Tehbo, and Joseph Lafond for SER
vices in the war Of 1912. Neither
of the veterans was able to tell
his age, but from the remembrance
of incidents, their neighbors put
the two first at 80, and the latter
at over 100.
A remarkable case of longevity
is reported in Virchow's Archiv
by DIR Ornstcin, of Athens. The
man, George Stravarides, died in
Smyrna, at the age of 132 years.
Although he had always lived an
irregular life, and had consumed
an average of more than a hun

retained possession of all his five

A baltimore Ghost.

About three months ago maiden
lady died in Western Baltimore, request
ing that she be buried in an ordinary
shroud, and threatening to haunt the
house inn case her wishes were disre-
garded. They were disregarded, how
ever. and she was buried in a costly silk
dress. The Gazette says that nothing
was thought of the matter until about
two weeks ago, when bridal couple en-
gagged board a. the house. On the night
of the third day the young vile awak-
ened her husband with a startling excla-
nation, calling out to him that there
was some one in the room who had been
sitting upon the side of the bed until
she called him, Upon awakening, he
moved softly across the room, and could
feel motion of the air caused by the
passage ola body through it. He inn
mcdiately arose and struck light, but
could discover no evidences of any one
being in the room. His wife, however,
was so much disturbed by the occur
re ICE that they left the house the next
day. The other boarders were in
ignorance of the cause of their sudden
departure. The next night gentleman
in the house was disturbed by the same
nocturnal visitor, and thus it continued
until all the boarders, some five or six
in number, took short leave of their
hostess. The matter remains as yet ore
of those mysteries which are almost inn
possible to solve, but the proprietress
says she will in short time have me-
diam hold seance at the house,and by
consultation with the spirit ofthe maid
en- lady ascertain if it is she who..is rest
ing SO uneasily in her grave; and if it is
owing to her body having been buried
in costly garments instead of plain
shroud, it will be exhumed at once and
the restless spirit quoted with such
vestments as it desires.

In Augusta no provision has
been made this winter for feeding
and:lodging tramps. A vagabond
went into the police station and
wanted to sleep there.

the sergeant, who was sitting be-
hind the desk.
"You only lodge prisoners" re-
peated the dirty vagabond medi-

"That's all,' was the reply
you've got to steal something, or
assault somebody, or do.something
of that kind"

Then he reached across the desk
with his long arm, and knocked

as the officer got up with his hand
to his eye:
"Give me as good a bed as you
you kin, sergeant, cause | don't

"A pfOQigIOuS dluOuHJ Oh 1dZllleSS,
false pride and greed are concealed
under this phrase. Many thousand
hands are to-day idle, waiting for
something to do. And in spite of
commercial depression the country
has work waiting, enough for a mil
lion of hands. The farmers are call
ing for help; the trades are deficient
in first class workmen our kitchens
are poorly supplied with domestic
service and yet the market-place
is full of the unemployed.
Why ? III the merchant advertises
for book-keeper, hundred COM
petent persons step forward at once.
If an author seeks for an amanuensts
he must choose between as many
eager applicants. Every government
officer who controls the appointment
of clerks has more names on his list
than there are details in a months
work. The demand is for something
that will not soil the hands, will not
start perspiration, that will secure a
livelihood without involving such
exertion. Genuine hand work is re-
garded as only semi-reSpectable.
Men do not seek work they look for
situation in which they may
avoid work. They do their best to
maintain the appearance of enjoying
elegant leisure. But if an absolute
sinecure cannot be found, they en-
deaver to give their employments an
air of dignity, of repose, of freedom
from homely fatigues. In a word,
they seek a light business.
This false system of responsibility
indicated by the word geenteelde
grades manhood. Young men are
ashamed of that which should be
their glory. 1t is not he who does
the least for the most money who
can wear the best clothes while at his
daily avocation whose business in
wolves the least display of strenuous
effort it is not he that is to be
most respected. The salary without
labor is disgrace. Partial idleness,
however, concealed rnder the shadow
of business, is a misfortune, if pur-
pOsely INDUCED in, a shame not to be
countenanced. Clean hands that
will not engage in genuine labor are
already covered with a stain that
water will not wash out. The re
finement that draws back from man.
ual employment, and prefers mental
dawdling, is sham, and should not
have social recognition. Better be a
grimy blacksmith, doing thorough
work, than a titled officer enjoying
large income as a return for nomi-
nal services. Better be day laborer
than q pensioned loafer. Better be
earning a comfortable livelihood by
the sweat of ones face on a farm or
in kitchen then depending on the
uncertainties of desk-work in an
overcrowded city. Better be a SIM
pie carpenter than a hair-splitting
scribe or Pharisee.
We wish the evil spirit of "gen-
teel' laziness might be exercised,
driven out of common conversation,
expelled from popular thought, and
cast down from it's shameful throne
of power. It's sway is anti-Christian,
and its cry is the old one, 'WhaG
have we do with thee, Jesus of Naz-
areth ?" There is not a ''genteel''
idler in the land who does not wish
to be let alone. They ough to be
stirred up.

A COSTLY SANDWICH.

Many strangers at the Centen-

can't get out, even for a moment,
and get back on the same entrance
fee. saw an old man, evidently a
granger, try it the other day. He
says to the gateman
want to go out a minute. You
will know me when / come back,
won't you?
Gateman-Yes, I'll know you by
fifty cent note.
Granger-Ain't the money first
paid good all day?
Gateman-Yes; it's good all day
if you stay IN all day.
Granger-But / want bite to
eat it'll cost me fifty cents tn
here.
Gateman-That's the rule, old
Kan, and you'll have to stand it.
But I'll tell you what you can go
down by them palings,and there's
some boys outside will sell you a
sandwich for fifteen or twenty
cents.
followed the old gentleman
down by the palings to witness
his Investment. Sure enough he
found an auburn haired boy with
sandwiches, and taking one thro'
the Stats passed out fifty cent
stamp. Then he held his hand for
the change.
"This is 1885," said the brick-top
Arab.
Granger-Well, I guess / know
ed that before. Gin my change.
Arab-This'ere is the Centennial
year.
Granger-(Snapping his fingers
through the crack)-Here, boy, l
don't want no foolin. Gin my
change.
Arab-Don't you know this is
centennial year?
Granger-Yes, SLOWLY / do
Gin my change, you owdacious

Arab-Don't give no change in

Granger-You cussed, Internal,
red-headed urat of Satan I! If you
don't GIN me thirty cents I'll come
out there and geta policeman hold
of you.
Arab-Now, mister, that won't
be business. You don't want to
come out here and pay fifty cents
to get back-just for thirty cents
and if yer was ter do it for spite,
where'd / be when you come out?
You see, this is Centennial year.
Have to make our jack this year.
Now you go along quiet and nice,
and it'll be the same next Centen-
NAL.
Finale-Arab performs a short
war dance and yells: run here,
Jimmy, I've done it to another of

Granger walks off, rubbing his
bothered brow and muttering:

There is no truth in the statement

the Post Office Department is at work

The department has no such thought,
being satisfied with the present
card, the plates for which were en-
graved at the Treasury Department
and belong to the government, the

How to Keep Mir Sweet.

1t is stated by one who tried it that
in warm weather, when it is difficult
to keep milk sweet for any length
of time, half a teaspoonful of salt in
a gallon of milk will preserve it over
night in a cellar, without ice. This
may prove to be a valuable hint to
many families, which, if too late to-
be of any service this season, it will
be well to remember next season
We all know that little salt adds to
the flavor of milk,i and will not in
jure anything in which it may be
used.
