JENNIE SMITH writes to the Courier
Journal in this confiding way My
aunt was here last week, and told me
many things She told me that there
was minister Of the gospel passing
through the country who professed TO
tell fortunes, and there was a man
who had lost an axe, and asked him 10
tell where it was. The preacher PIT
the lamps out, fixed a cooking pot
bottom upward and pnt a CHECKED in
it, and told all who we're in the church
to come and rub their hands over 1t,
and the chicken would crow when the
one that was guilty should rub his
hand over it. They all came, and
when they gos through he looked at
their hands, and there was one who
had not touched the pot. The preach
er told him to go and put the axe back
or he would expose him."

A BRAVE WoRkMAY.-We have
much pleasure in recording an act of
courageous self control and presence
of mind which may be compared
with advantage to the honors won by
deeds of daring on The field of battle,
Two workmen were engaged in fix
ing q lightning conductor on the sum-
unit of the steeple at Villesnr-Ourthe,
Belgium. To accomplish this some
what difiicrlt and delicate task it was
necessary that one of the workmen
should stand on the shoulders of his
companion. While in this position, a
violent gust Of wind made him spill
some molten lead, which fell on the
hand and forearm of his friend. Not
withStanding the sudden intensity of
the pain thus inflicted, the victim of
this accident had the courage to
remain moliOnless while the lead burnt
its way into his flesh. He knew that
the slightest movement might suffice
to percipitate his companion from a
hight of seventy feet into the street
below, and he bTavely endured the
pain rather than imperil the life of his
fellow worker. NJ. A. Kari<, slater,
at AnthiSne, is the hero of this brave
deed, and his name is worthy Of public
record.-L0nd0R Builder.

How To HANDLE SHEEP.-A great
many farmers and their help handle
sheep in a wrong way, often pulling
ont handfuls of wool, when this
might just as well be avoided as not.
An old sheep raiser says: "When
about to catch a sheep, move careful
ly toward the one to be taken, until
you are sufficiently near TO spring
quickly aud seize the beast by the
neck with both hands. Then pass one
hand around the body grasp The brisk
ct, and lift the sheep clear from the
ground. The wool must not be pulled.
Ii the sheep is heavy one, lie: one,
band and wrist be put around
the neck and the other passed against
the rump." That is good advice as
when sheep are roughly handled, if
the wool is pulled, the small bruises
will render them less tame, and more
difficult to handle.

GRAcEFULNEss IN GlRLs.-The Hiu>
doc girls are graceful and exquisitely
formed. From their earliest child
hood, they are accustomed TO carry
burdens on their heads. The water
for family use is always brought by
the girls in earihen jares, carefully
poised in this way. This exercise is
said TO strengthen the musIes of The
back, while The chest is thrown for
ward. No crooked backs are seen in
Hindoostan. DR.. Henry Spry, one OF
the company's medical officers, says
that this exercise Of carrying small
vessels of water on the head might
be adyantageously introduced into
our boarding schools and private
families, and that it should entirely
supersede the present machinery OF
dumb bells, black boards, skipping
ropes, etc. The young lady ought to
be taught to carry the jar, as these
Hiudoo women do, without ever
touching it with her hand" The
same practice of carrying water leads
TO precisely the same results in the
south of Spain and in the south OF
Italy as in India. a NepoIitan female
peasant will carry on her head vessel
full of water to the very brine over a
rough road and not spill a drop of it,
and the acquisition of this art or
knack gives her the same erect and
elastic gait, and the same expanded
chest and well formed back and
shoulders.

BABIES IN LAPLAND.-The Lapland
mothers are not in the habit of stay
ING at home with their babies. The
laps are a very religious people, and
take long journeys to hear the pastors.
As soon as the family arrive at the
little wooden church, and the reindeer
are secured Tho father shovels a snug
little bed in the snow, and the mother
wraps the baby in skins and deposits
1t therein. The father piles the snow
about it, and the dog is set on guard,
while The parents go decorously into
The church. Often as many as thirty
babies may be seen laid away in the
snow about the church.

GETTING MOSEY.-The most unfor>
tunate day in the career OF any Young
man is the day on which lie fancles
there is some better way 10 get rlon-
ey than TO earn it; for from that feel
ing spring the many extravagant AMI
visionary schemes which are Indulged
in for the purpose Of gaining -iveil-
hood without labor. When a young
man once becomes throughly infected
with this feeling, he is really TO adopt
any means for the accomplishment Of
his object; aud ii hi, plans are fustrat-
ed and be is foiled in his efforts, upon
the very crest of the wave which he
has already mounted and IN full view
is the temptation TO crime, to shield
him from disgrace which he thinks
must inevitably follow in the weak de-
feat. TO those he yields, and the first
he realizes he finds himself The viola
tor of the law, and criminal in the
ewes of the community, and an inmate
of the prison, waiting trial, all
brought on for want Of little manly
firmness in The outset of life to prompt
him 10 choose an avOcatiOn IN HE
where the penny earned would bring
with it its sure reward Then let our
young men spurn the idea of obtain
ing money without rendering an equiv
alent let them be ready and willing
to occupy the positions in life which
will give them the best possible OPP
portunity to develop their natural tai,
ent, ana do good TO others while help
ing themselves. In this way we may
have a nation of noble men and wo-
men, which shall be source Of prof.;
and pleasure to us, and an object OF
wonder and admiration 10 the world
At large.

A BIG GAME OF PoKER.-The Gin.
cinnati Commercial says Alb mt
week or ten days ago two politicians
of national reputation, a member of
great banking house in London, and
John Chamberlain, the we'll known
turfman, who makes his winter quar-
lers in Washington, sat down to a
quiet seance at draw in one of the
leading hotels there. The play grew
heavy as time passed. and the interest
became so intense that the sitting
lasted thirty-six hours, at the close CT
which Chamberlain was winner TO the
amount of $4,000. He celebrated
his victory by a grand dinner few
nights afterward. Precautions were
:aken to keep the affair secret, but it
leaked out, notwithstanding, and has
been the leaiing topic in certain eirles.

I heard couple of days ago hilherto-
pnpublishei romance connected with
the life Of one of the most prominent
officials of the signal service bureau.
He was. my informant states. once en-
oaned to be be married to a lovely,
charming and wealthy girl. The eve
of the wedding had dawned--if an
eve can dawn-and they were occu
,yins the same rocking chair and
talking as namely as only lovers can
talk. when the fair one said "Alber.,
duckey, there is one thing | wish you
to do when we are married" shame
it, lovely" he replied. "That is, pref
ty, TO have no rain on Mondays be
cause, You know, darling, that Mon
day is washing day, and if the things
are not washed and dried, then the
weeks work is so fearfully pat back:
You will, won't you, my owny z"
This young mans heart was torn, but
he replied "hLaud, dearest, my duty
to my bleeding country demands i'm
peratively that l shall whoop her up
the precise sort of weather that heaven
will probably send impariially during
the next twenty four hours upon The
Just and unjust, without regard to age,

me anything but thai. could not
love thee, dear so darn much, loved |
not honor more" "Then you do not
love me-" she sobbed, busting into
tears The reader will readily under
stand how they progressed to a quar-
rel and barted enemies. She returns
Ell his presents, and is now lecturing
on woman's rights, and he is con
frmed miSogynist and sits up all Sun

BUSINESS RELATIONS.

For our business interests we desire to bring
producers and consumers, farmers and manuiaetur-
ers the most direct and friendly relations possl-
BILE Hence must dispense with surplus of mid
diemen not that We are unfriendly to them, but We
do not need them. Their surplus and their ezaetions
diminish cur profits
We wage no aggressive warfare against any other
interest whatever. On the contrary, ali our acts
and all efforts, far business Is concerned
are not only for the bnet Of the producer and con-
suner but also for all other interests that tend to
bring these two parties into speedy ami economical
contact. Hence We hold that transportation eompa-
MES of every kind necessary to sueecess, that
their interests intimately connected with our IN
terests and HARMONIOUS action Is mutually advan-
tag. GUS keeping view the first sentence IN our
declaration of principles of action that Individual
happiness depends upon general prosperity"

vance our interests, nor any Eboring classes
