The Wabash Courier tells OF a man
by the name OF Jones who never was
a subscriber to newspaper: in fact
Jones don't believe In newspapers
anymore than he believes in the Hin
doc God, but Jones is not skeptical
In all things OF this world and now
firmly believes that the spring bed
bottom transaction Is a swindle.
How Jones became convinced of that
fact was, he gave his note for twenty
bed bottoms, when he thought he was
merely giving an order for them.
Jones is now OF the opinion that peo-
pie ought to keep little posted on
matters and things transpiring
around them. In fact they ought to
take the county papers.

AnecdOte OF Lincoln.

One day, just after President Lin
coins second Inauguration. a Massa-
chusetts merchant visiting Washing
ton, noticed the great crowds of Office
seekers who waited for an audience
with the president, and thought he,
too, would like to see him. Writing
his name on a card, he added the
line, Holds no public Office, and
wants none" The card was taken to
President Lincoln, and, instantly
jumping up, he said to the attendaIt,
@Show him up-he Is a curiosity
Passing the long line Of office seekers
the merchant went up to the presi-
dent, who was refreshed to meet a
man who did not want an Office, and
urged his stay. A long and pleasant
conversation followed.

"Kept away did you. till the Fourth

And the eggs flew with all the

at the window. saw her favorite one
pelted in the back, in the side, on the

tear through the shrubbery like a

liquid streaming from his hair, his
chin, his coat tails, and his finger tips,
saw him shed scrambled eggs, chro-

Political Points.

The republican candidate for Gov
ernor OF New Jersey, the Hon. Will
liam A. Newell, was the first republi-
can Governor Of the state. He was
elected in 1856.
The Ohio State Journal reports
that Judge West is making a vigor-
Gus campaign in that state, and Is at
tracing large audiences at all points.
He has made six speeches every
week since the opening of the cam
paign in August, and gains strength
with the people every day.
The Nashville american has also
made a discovery that the Southern
states, by seceeding and being whip
ped back into the traces, preserved
the Union. Logic Is logic, you know,
and Southern logic has always been
peculiar to say the least.
The Mississippi democrats point
with pride to the fact that in one dis
trict in that state their party has
renominated man for the State SEN
ate who served in the Union army
and cite this case as proof that
Northern men are treated well in the
South. And all the while these same
Democrats are invading independ-
ent meetings with shot guns and dill
ligently bulldozing all new corners
who are voters.
The New York Tribune says that as
substantial grievances In the South
have bsen removed, nothing seems
to be wanting except little healthy
stimulating and clearing Of imagin-
alton; little more cheerfulness, con-
fidence, and courage. The Tribune
hopes that the tour OF President
Hayes cleared up the imaginations OF
the distempered Southerners.
The Now York Times thinks the
President should have humbly, en-
treated tho South to spare US the old
flag; to postpone for few years the
formal adoption Of the Confederacy.
1t Is conscious that such plea for
the stars and stripes will be called
PARTISAN, malignant, and brutal, but
1t insists that 1t would DO a graceful
act for the South to leave us the old
flag until the last OF Grants and
Shermon's soldiers are under the sod

Another way Of doing it.-A new
swindling trick Is being played Off on
families in the country, as we are in
formed. The method Of operating is
something of this sort: A travelling
sewing machine agent, stranger OF
course, calls at house and enquiries
whether or not the lady has a Howe
sewing machine. II she has, he says
he wishes to examine it and take the
number marked on the shuttle. for
the purpose OF evidence In settling
some disputed facts at the manufac-
tory. He then finds that the number
indicates the fact that that machine
has no right to ii on account OF some
technicality In the patent on the ma
chine which, he pretends to explain,
unless the owner OF the machine pays
so much for the right to use 1t and
takes quietus therefor. II this levy
is refused, the gentlemanly agent
btll6 tlCin iO tahO lilo SnutbfC
away with him. In order to save the
machine from becoming utterly USE
less on their hands, the owner is gen.
orally willing to pay the little dollar
or two and keep the shuttle. In this
manner the travelling swindler mana
ges to blackmail many a family, and
make good wages, even on settle
ments at apparently small figures.
In submitting to this bull-dozing pro-
cess, the unfortunate woman OF the
house hardly ever thinks it would be
doing herself justice and the commu
nifty favor II she should give the
chap dose OF shot.-Steuben Re-
publican.

How To Save Fuel.

A very common mistake is made and
much fuel is wasted in the manner of re-
plenishipg coal fires in furnaces and
crates. They should be fed with little
coal at time and otten-5ut servants,
to save time and trouble, put on a great
deal At once, the first result being that
almost all the heat is absorbed by the
newly put on coal, which does not heat
until it becomes red hot. The
time to replenish a coal fire Is
soon as the coal begins to show
sshes on the surface, then put on
merely enough to show layer OF black
coal covering the red. This will soon
kindle, and, as there is not much of it.
nm excess OF heat will not be given out.
Many also put out the fire by stirring
The crate rs soon rs fresh coal is put
on, thus leaving all heat in the ashes
when it should be sent to the new supply
Of coal. The time to stir fire is just
W hen the new coal laid on is pretty well
kindled. This method of managiJg
coal fire is troublesome, but it saves fuel,
gives a more uniform heat, and prevents
.he discomfort of alterations of hest and
cold above referred to.

ObStrucIiuE Nature,

Instead of aiding her in her efforts 70 re-
cuperate, is obviously not the way TO get
well when one is sick, Yet this is pre-
sely the course pursued-ot course I'M
wi.tingly-by persons who are continual
~ dosing themselves with powerful
mineral drugs for some malady with
WIFI h they are afflicted. Such banetul
medicaments rather tend TO retard re-
covery than to hasten II. How much more
sensible are they who employ the gently
acting but thoroughly efficient restora-
tive, Hostetttr's stomach Bltters, which,
unlike the drugs referred TO, is eminently
wholesome and safe; and, instead OF in
Juring, improves the tone Of the stomach
and re.creates health and yigor in the
broken down system. Indigestion, liver
complaint, constipation, kidney and blad-
der ailments and rheumatism, yield 10 its
corrective influence, ana it is the remedy
and preventive par excellence for inter
mittent and remittent fevers and other
disorders bred by miasma tainted air and
water. 1t is, moreover, superb appetizer.

An Ancient Relic.

One of the oldest musical instruments
in this section IN the shape of violin
has Just been presented to t. T. Cocksyne
by Mrs. Reynolds, of East Wheeling.
The instrument was brought to this
country by the Keys family of Phils-
delphia, who came here shortly after the
arrival of William Penn. The violin
was in their possession for over twenty
five years. 1t was given to William
Reynolds in the year 1903, and has been
in that family until the present time.
Henry Clsy and other great statesmen
danced to its music on frequent occasions
while it was In the possession of Mr..
Reynolds, who was considered a fine
musician. The violin is somewhat out Of
repair ~ present, but it is the intention
of Mr. G, ckayne to have it repaired, if
possible, or use At the Nail City boat
club tall. o. Thanksgiving eve.
