MIXED BABIES Some time ago there
was dancing party given in a certain
neighborhood in Texas, and most of those
present had little babies, whose noisy
perversty required too much attention
to permit the mothers to enjoy the dance.
A number Of gallant young men volun-
teercd to mind the young ones while the
parents INDUCED in an old Virginia
breakdown No sooner had the women
left the babies in charge Of the mis-
chcyous devils than they stripped the
babies, changed their cloths, giving the
apparel Of one to another. The dance
over, it was time to go home, and the
mothers hurriedly took each baby in
the dress Of her own, and started TO
their homes, some Of them ten or fifteen
miles off, and were far on their way be-
fore daylight. But the day following
there was tremendous row in the set
Element mothers discovered that sin
gle night had changed the sex of their
babies, observation disclosed physical
phenomena, and then commenced the
tallest female pedestrianism. Living
miles apart, it required two or three
days to unmix the babies, and as many
months to restore the women to their
natural sweet dispositions. To this day
it is unsafe for any Of the baby mixers
to venture into the neighborhood.

Jane B. M, Bristow, in the american
Farmer for November, has the following
useful advice in regard to the treatment
of children -
Individual peculiarities should be
studied, and kind consideration and al
lowance made for them l brought up
my little ones to fear nothing, to 20 to
sleep in the dark and alone in their
rooms, but my youngest child as he
grew older developed differently, and at
tacks of what is peculiarly known as
" nightmare" showed me the necessity
in his case of allaying all cause of fear
and letting him feel and know that some
one was near when he slept to protect
and care for him in these distressing
alarms. Simple oatmeal suppers, taken
some time before retiring, and avoidance
OF unpleasant subjects of conversation.
with plenty of outdoor exercise, were nv
remedies. Bronchial and catarrhal az
fectlons should be noticed, and the con-
stitution early strengthened against
them If a child has rasping in his
throat as if trying to bring up phlegm
as an habitual thing, it showed a predis-
position Of this kind. Pure cod liver
oil is an excellent remedy. Moller's
Norwegian is remarkably pure and clear,
having received the recommendation Of
the best chemists; consumption is often
warded of by its use and its fatal
progress delayed. Orange peel chewed
after it removes the unpleasant taste
better than anything / know of, but
children do not usually object much to
the oil, if something they like is given
them after it

How A WOMAN Tries ON New SHOES
When woman has new pair of shoes
sent home she performs altogether diff
terent from man. She never shoves
her toes into them and yanks und hauls
until she is red in the face and all out of
breath and then goes stamping and kick
ing around, but pulls them on part way
carefully, witches them off again to
take a last look and see if she has got
the right one, pulls them on again, looks
at them dreamily, says they are Just
right, then takes another look, stops
suddenly to smooth out wrinkle, twists
around and surveys them sideways,
exclaims, mercy! how loose shoy
are y looks at them again square
in front, works her foot around
so they won't hurt her quite so
much, takes them off. looks at the heel,
the toe, the bottom and the inside, puts
them on again, walks up and down the
room once or twice. remarks TO her bet
ter half that she won't have them at any
price, tits down the mirror SO she can
see how they look, turns in every posi-
bic direction and nearly dsocates her
neck to see how they look from that
way, backs off, steps again, takes thirty
or forty farewell looks, says they make
her feet look awful big and never will
do in the world, puts them off and on
three or four times more, asks her hus-
band what he thinks about it and then
pays no attention to what he says, goes
through it all again and finally says she
Will take them. It's very simple mat
Ter, indeed.

TnE BARBERs PoLE.-Eyery part of
the barber pole formerly had special sig
nidcance. The gilt knob at the top was
once brass basin, with notch in the
side, used to Il. under the chin 10 facili-
tate the lathering and washing of GUS
toners. The BARRIERS were formerly
surgeons, at least all the vencsection was
performed by them. The pole repre-
sents the staff held by persons who were
bled in the arm, and the two spiral rib
bons painted around it were originally
actual baDdages, one for cordiDg or
binding the arm to cause the flow Of
blood, aud the other for dressing the
puncture afterwards. The whole was
significant Of the barber's twin occupa-
tion-shaying aud blood-ettng.

The Oliver Chilled PIOW.
CEDAR GROVE, August, 1873.
Mr.. +. l.. MOORE:

think the Oliver Chilled Pillow, which ]
have fairly tested, superior TO any Plow
have ever used or seen and for the reason
that il is, in my opinion constructed upon
purely scientific principles, fact which !
think will be obvious to any intelligent per-
son who is not prejudced and will study its
construction and witness its work.
Science, when practically applied, twill
tell, as think is clearly shown in the very
light draft and excellent work of these Plows
WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT THEN for
any consideration which farmer could rea-
soDably refuse.
Yours truly, WIN. READING.

At MnrfreesbOro, on the day Of election,

voted for Major Yeates, the Democratic nomi-
nee Tor Congress. They voted oEen ballots
About twenty negroes refused to vote against
him Tho feeling ran very high among the
coored people Several OF the negroes were
ostracised by their fellows and were turned
out OF their churches. Last Thursday night,
during heavy wind and rain storm three
negro men visited store and bought some
tobacco. In this store there is employee n
negro man named Marcus Williams When
the store was closed he started to his home
about quarter OF mile distant. ON his
way he was sot upon by three negro men
who beat him in n most horrible and cruel
manner and then threw him into pond of
water, He recovered shortly aftcrward and
dragged himself to his home where he lies
in dangerous condition. Williams has
always voted the Democratic ticket. and on
that account was odious to his race. The
tobacco bought at the store was found Mt the
place of the attempted murder, and gives nm
excellent clew to the perpetrators of this
tlagrant outrage
