OIL YOURSELF ALITTLE.

There is true humor in the following
story: Once upon a time there lived
an old gentleman in a large. house
He had servants and everything ht
wanted, yet he was not happy, and
when things did not go as lie wished,
he wa. cross. At last his servant left
him. Quite out of temper he went to
a neighbor with a story of distress.
''It seems to me-" said the neighbor,
sagaciously, "'twould be well for you
to Gil yourself a little"
ITO oil myself"
eyes, and will explain Some time
ago one of the doors in my house
creaked. Nobody, therefore, liked to
go 10 or out by it. One day i oiled it:
hinges, and it has been constantly used
by everybody ever since"
Then You think I am Ike your
creeking door," cried the old gentle.
man. ''How 90 you want me to oil
myselff
''That's an easy mater" said the
neighbor; "go hone and engage q ser
want, and when he does right praise
him If on the contrary, he does some
thing aIniss, do not be cross; oil your
voice and words with the oil of love.
The old gentleman went home, and
no harsh or ugly word was found in his
house afternard. Every family should
have a bottle of this precious oil, fol
every family is liable to have creak.

growth bend beneath the weight oi
'hoppers until the tops touched the
wheat growing alongside. Ihave been
more exact than this; / have counted,
and found, in twenty places in an oats
field, an average of Is to 90 grasshop-
pers on each stem; the corn covered
the same way, in proportion to its
available space, and the ground pretty
thickly strewn besides. This is not
for any one particular spot, but for the
whole county, aye, the whole region
of country from here to the British
possession, and from 80 miles East oi
here, as far West as We can hear of
But the near future is more dreary
looking than the present or the past,
1 for the farmer here, from the fact that
those which were here, destroyed oul
crops and have gone South, have de-
posted eggs until the ground is liter
ally full of then-the surface looks
like the face of nutmeg crater. A
friend of nJiEe dug up six inches square
of clay, counted the eggs therein, and
found bordering on sir thousand.
While they may have been unusually
thick in that particular spot, yet it is
an index which points out tina. a most
! overwhelming destructive force Will
hatch out here next year, that will
prevent US from raising any crops, m.
less some improbable human or divine
agency interferes to save Us.
There are scme peculiarities of these
devils which, TO you grasshopper
greenhorrs, nay be worth noticing.
This years band of them would travel
no other direction but South. When
ever we had north wind they would
rise and go, but the moment it changed
they would settle again Ghis fact,
coupled with the elementary fatality
which gave US ten days South wind
after their arrival here gave them a
better chance at us than otherwise.
This also explaines why you will hear
of some localities la their track almost
uninjured.) Their eggs do not hatch
out in this climate until they lie a win
ter in the ground.
The male hopper bores the hole and
the female comes along and deposits
the eggs. They move in columns, and
do not vary their line of march to any
perceptible degree; 'onward, right
on" is their motto. What had we
better jo2" is the question upoi: which
many farmer in the Northwest LAS
been and is pondering. 1t is easy
enough fer new settlers and small
families to seek, temporarily, some
more prosperous country, but take a
man WHO for seventeen or eighteen
years has braved the trials and storms
of Northwestern Iowa, in raising a.
family and making a comfortable
home. How. is he goiIg g to 'puil up
stakes" sacrifice the result of long,
earnest toll, and in some other region
start afresh, poor as he began9 l know
that by staying here we will undergo
some difficulties in making respecta
bic living during the next year or two,
but believe that in the end we will
come out all right. This is beautiful,
fertile, healthy country, and, free from
grasshoppers, there is no place would
sooner live 1t is hoped that we will
see them no more after this matching"

voRTHYOF REmEmaRaNCE.

Why viii you suffer violent pain. or be
made uncomfortable, distressed In mind OF
body, when you can be instantly relieved
and quickly cured by Benson's Capcine Por-
ous Piasters. The ordinary Porous Plaster is
an article of merit, yet its action is too slow,
requiring days and weeks of continuous " ear
to effect q cure. Bensons Capcine Porous
Plaster being a great improvement over them
relieves you instantly and cures you quick
er than any known plaster, liniment or COM
pound.
Their action is more powerful than ele trio
ity and more certain. They are purely veg
etable, contain no mineral or metallic pois-
ons There composition and properties are
founded upon true medical skill. and are in
no sense patent medicine. They are en-
dorsed by thousands of Physicians and Drug
gists of unimpeac able reputation, as being

They seek to place in such hands the
balance of political power, and taini
the glorious rece I'd of Republicanism
with degradation, humiliation and ruin.
I am, however, badly deceived if the
intelligence of the American people
will permit themselves to be guilty of
such self qualification as again to trust
power in the hands of the worst element
OF the country of which the Democratic
party is composed. The past session
of the present lower House of Congress
is an example. 1t is a fine precedent
OF craftsmanship. 1t was grand, mag
nificent and ennobling; so was seees-
sion.
L understand how it is when you say
that Hancock county is '.red hot' for
Tilden. Don't you know those fellows
who vote eternally Democratic back
there, are not governed by the dictates
of reason and sense2 They simply act
and are led by a blind passion. The
Democratic ticket is voted through u
sense of stubbornness and political ha-
tired. They have no other conception
or higher motive they know very
well that their party has history as
black es hell ever was in its palmiest
days. They know very well that the
Democratic party sustained and are
directly responsible for the blackest
Institution on record, the institution
OF slavery past the middle of the nine
teenth century, and finally to bind
more firmly tie yoke of human ben
dage on weaker race brought about
the greatest war OF modern times.
They know, too, that the damnable
institution, smirched with inbumanity
and injustice, and defied the higher
laws, the laws OF God. Notwithstand-
ing all these things, they continue to
read the Hancock Courier and cast
their ballots in favor of the internal
party and of mockish sentimentality.
But It is the policy of the party TO op-
pose. They have opposed every grand
idea ever conceived. They have op-
posed every popular sentiment of the
age and defeated the same, if in their
power. Your brother,
