admired throughout his State for his
modcsty and innocence. Some idea
of his sweetness Of character may be
gathered from the following item

We arc reliably informed that near
ly all the ladies Of Austin now wear
Centennial pctticoats. Never having
seen n Centennial pctticoat, nor any
other kind Of pctticoat, VIC are un-
able to furnish n description Of the

though, the Centennial pctticoat is
made of red, white and blue silk, and
trimmed with American eagles, little
hatchets and stars, and is different in

And around the children cluster,
Each one eager to be seen.
Deep the knife is plunged into it,
Then is driven clear around,
And the two halves fall asunder
With n strangely pleasant sound.

That is what the children think
Will, the core rs bright as cornl,
And the seed rs black Us ink.

How the little eyes 10 snap,

Slicing up the mammoth half,

Disease from Soap.

So6tJ is so universally use1 at tho
prcscht day that it seems almost inn
possible to do without it. It may ap-
pcat surprising to learn that soap is
not an uilnixcd good, and that some
Of the worst diseases have originated
In, or at least been Carried about by,
the too frequent use Of some kinds of
the article. Manufacturers care but
little what ingredients they employ SO
long us the article they bring forth
has tho proper amount ofpcrfume or
the requisite capability Of producing
su:ls with little rubbing In this man
ner vast amount Of diseased animal
matter, taken from beasts which have
died of putrcsccnt maladics, is en-
ploycd.
Soap fat is well knownin in the manu-
facturc Of the soap, and owing to its
condition and the imperfect way in
which it is refined, il sometimes con-
tains most deadly poisons, which, by
friction upon the skin, are introduced
into the pores, gradually soak into the
blood and develop into some local
affection for which no cause can be
assigned. Typhoid fever has been
often produced in this manner, it is
ascertaincd positively, but the most
common form III which this soap poi
son has made itself felt is in the pro-
duction Of tliphthcria. It has hithcr-
to been an incxplicablc fact that
while doctors have been urging great
cleanliness to avoid this disease, it is
precisely whore this has been most
shown that the disease has made most
ravagcs. Boards Of health have been
constant i'll their efforts to prevent
diphtheria by urging cleanliness, with
Il result that is already known by. the
constant increase Of death.
It has also been found that largo
proportion Of the soaps now used arc
made from putrid and filthy grease
obtained from tcneme ent houses, jails,7
hospitals and public institutions, and
which no possible process can remove
Of their impurities and render fit for
human use. The medical faculty of
Paris and Lond,n have already
sounded the keynote Of warning III
this matter. Alarmed ut the increase
of disease transmitted from impure
soaps, they have impressed OH the
people the necessity Of only using
soaps of tested purity. The annual
mortality ofchildren, which is now so
great, is also attributed in large part
to this indiscriminate use Of soap. The
sensitive and tender skins Of the little
ones more readily absorb the poison
and disease transmitted by the soaps
referred to. Wise legislation is need
ed oil this matter.

LOVE, a Likeness AND LARCENY.
"A strange lawsuit is pending in
Atlanta. A young man, becoming
enamorcd ofa buxom widow, Offered
his hand and heart, and was accepted.
Photographs were exchanged, and the
course of true love ran smoothly for
several months. But another cl,ar-

give her q photograph. But tines

photographer inexorable in his dc.

a happy thought struck him. He
visited the widow, and, durin g her
temporary absence from the parlor,
distracted his photograph, which in
due time he presented to her rival
The bcrcft fair one discovered her loss;
rage supplantcd love; she pined for
revenge, and obtained it by indicting
the faithlcss lover for larceny. The
case was tried. The widow, in her
testimony, alluded to the photograph
rs "his photograph" This was the
straw to which defendants counsel
ctuag. It being "his photograph" he
could not be charged with larceny for
taking his own. A learned discussion

phrase "of him" and did not imply
possession. The accused was bound
