REV. F. w. ToMPK1Ns delivered the
fifth lecture in the Episcopal course,
before an appreciative audience at
Kimball Hall last Friday evening.
The theme resected was Dickens" a
subject which the lecturer handled in
a most thorough and satisfactory man
ner, giving an able review of the works
and method Of the great master of
modern fiction, with numerous cita-
tions from his various novels. Mr..
TompIins is at home on the rostrum
and we predict from the very saGisfac-
tory manner in which he acquitted
himself last Friday evening, that his
services in this particular line will be
in frequent demand. The next and
last lecture Of the course will be de-
livered by Rev. DR.. Everhart at some
period in the near future. AS this
gentleman IS SO well and favorably
known in Kenosha, the bare announce
ment should be sufficient to insure a
full house.

A Shot From the Scriptures.

A "Country Parson," writing to the New
York Tribune, hopes that it silver dollar is
coined worth 80 cents, or less than real dol
lar, that no such inscription will be put upon
it as, In God We Trust" lie thinks that
the Deity would not be fattered by any such
inscription, and quotes from Deuteronomy
the following:
Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers
weight great and a small:
Butthou shalt have perfect and just weight,
a perfect and just measure shalt thou have:
that thy days may be heightened in the land
which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
If hat'argument don't drive out the silver
heresies, nothing will. But the Western finan-
ciers will not be likely to listen to voice
from heaven. They want in their bags ''di-
vers weights" When greenbacks were at
heavy discount they wanted to pay the ma
tional debt in currency. Now that the latter
is little better than silver, they want TO pay
the national debt in the latter currency. If
this should ever reach par, there would he
school of Western financiers who would ad-
vocate copper currency, or something which
was of less than standard value. These va
garies are very near to the heart of the West
ern fnancier, and there is no prospect that y
text OF Scripture or thunder-bolt from
Heaven can rout them-San Francisco Bul-

The London Lancet says: "Few people
know the value of lomon-juice. A piece of
lemon bound upon corn will cure 1t in q
few days; it should be renewed night and
morning. A free use of lemon juice and
sugar will always relieve cough. Most
people feel poorly in the spring, but it they
would cat lemon before breakfast every day
for week-with or without sugar, as they
like they would find it better than any
medicine. Lemon juice, used according to
this recipe, will sometimes cure consumption:
Put a dozen lemons into cold water and
slowly bring to boil; boil slowly until the
lemons are soft, then squeeze until all the
juice is extracted; add sugar to your taste
and drink. In this way, use one dozen lem
ons day. If they cause pain, lessen the
quantity and use only five or six day until
you are better. and then begin again with .
dozen day. After using five or six dozen
the patient will begin to gain flesh and enjoy
food. Hold on to the lemons, and still use
them very freely for several weeks more.
Another use for lemons is for refreshing
drink In summer. or in sickness at any time.
Prepare as directed above and add water and
sugar. Both in order to have this keep well,
after boiling the lemons squeeze and strain
carefully; then to every half pintof juice add
one pound of loaf or crushed sugar, boil and
stir few minutes more until the sugar is
dissolved, skim carefully and bottle. You
will get more juice from the lemons by boil
ing them, and the preparation keeps better.

A COlOred SKeptfc.

When schools were established in the South
for the education of the negro. they were
eagerly patronized by the colored folks of
all ages. Coy maidens of thirty and bashful
lads equally old gayly trudged to school with
diminutive primers in their hands, while the
small fry swarmed in the school houses, and
were enthusiastic on the education question.
Of Pete, the subject of our anecdote, it might
be truly written that ''ne'er did pencil trace
whittier eye or blacker face" His former
master, DR.. h, had taken great pains
with him, instructing him daily in reading
and writing. In the fall Pete was to 60 to
school, and anxiously looked forward to it.
This was in 1859, when the sun was in total
eclipse in August. There were all sorts of
rumors among the colored people about
calamities which would happen at the time
of this phenomenon. A few days before it
occurred the following conversation took
place between Pete and a friend:
''Pete, did you know dar was gwine to be
'clipse OBJ de sun next week ?'

Why the Rev. DIR. Nudge Stopped His
Paper.

Some years ago, when the writer was a re-
porter upon an Eastern paper, 1t devOlved on
him to write for the same edition an account
of the presentation Of gold-headed cane to
the Rev. DR.. Nudge, the clergyman of the
place, and description of a new hog-killing
machine that had just been put in operation
at the factory. Now, what made the Rev.
DR.. Nudge mad was this The inconsiderate
buccaneer who made up the form got the two
locals mixed in frightful manner, and when
we went to press, something like this was the
appalling result:
''Some of the Rev. Mudge's friends called
on him yesterday, and after brief consulta-
ton the unsuspecting hog was seized by the
hind legs and slid along the beam until he
reached the hot water tank. His friends ex-
planned the object of their visit and presented
him with handsome gold-headed butcher,
who grabbed him by the tail, and swung him
around, and in less than minute the carcass
was in the water. Thereupon he came for
ward and said there were times when the
feelings overpowered one, and for that reason
he would not do more than attempt to thank
those around him for the manner in which go
huge an animal was cut in fragments was
astonishing. The doctor concluded his re-
marks, the machine seized him, and, in less
than it takes to write it, the hog was cut into
fragments and worked into delicious sausage.
The occasion will be remembered by the doc
tors friends as one of the most delightful of
their lives. The best pieces can be obtained
for fifteen cents per pound, and we are sure
that those who sat under his ministry will be
rejoiced to hear that he has been so hand
someiy treated
Mad! Well, about one o'clock that morn
ing the office had been abandoned by every
man but the advertising clerk, and he ascend
ed to the roof and robed himself in boiler
iron. so that he could not see the clergyman
tearing around down in the street with his
congregation, all wearing the panoply of war
and carrying butcher knives and things. The
next day we apologized. but the doctor stop
ped his subscription. Indianapolis Times.

A Battle Within the Spirit Of the Resu.
laaiOns-Regiments Entitled 10 Have
Their Names Inscribed On the Col
Ors-General Order From Army
lEendQuR rters.

The following general order has been is
sued from the headquarters of the army:
The proceedings of the board of officers
convened by General Oorders, No. Ill, Dec.
Z, 1877, from this office, consisting of Major
Gen. w. s. Hancock, U. s. A.; Col. D.. 5.
Stanley, Twenty second infantry, and Col.
w. D. Whipple, aid-de-camp, having been
approved by the President, the following ex-
tract theretrom is published for the informa-
ton of the army:
The board proceeded to the consideration
of the questions submitted to it, viz:
First-What shall be considered as being
''batte' within the spirit of the regulations
Answer-Battles are important engagements
between independent armies in their own
theatres of war. in contradistinction to con-
flicts in which but small portion of the op-
posing forces are actually engaged, the latter
being called, according to their nature, 'af
fairs ''combats, 'skirmishes," etc. A bat
tie has for its object the determination of i'm
portant questions of policy or strategy. An
engagement may be partial, and yet. it it
tend to these ends it is also entitled to the
dignity of being termed battle
Second-What portion of regiment must
be engaged IN battle TO entitle the regiment
to have inscribed upon it's colors and upon
the Army Register the name of the battle?
Answer-That number of companies which
by tactics and regulations is entitled as a bat
TALON habitually to carry the colors of the
regiment Regulations indicate what may be
inscribed upon the guidons of batteries OF
artillery. Qf the battles which regiments
are entitled to place on their colors are also
borne on the Army Register, it would seem
that batteries having guidons are entitled to
bear their names placed on the Army Regis
ter, with the letter of each battery. This
would not include honors to which the regi-
ment is entitled, but honors won separately
by detached batteries Now that the legs!
designation of every company of artillery is
''battery," which was not the case when
the regulations of 1868 in question were is
sued, it would seem proper that It should be
determined whether all batteries of artillery
serving as infantry, or field, or horse artillery
are now entitled to carry guidons, and to en-
blazon the names of battles on them, or
whether the rule refers to mounted batteries
only, or to what batteries.)
Third-What record should be made in the
cases of regiments consolidated, as in 1915
and 1859? Answer-When regiments are
consolidated which are entitled to hOnOrs by
the rule laid down for regiments, the new Or
ganization is entitled to the combined honors
of the battalions and the consolidated, but
when battalion which had no existence dur
ing the war, or had not sufficient number
of companies to entltle it to bear the colors,
subsequently became o regiment and then
was consolidated, it carries with it no honOrs.
With reference to the question in the an
swer under the second head, it is decided
that rule refers only to mounted batteries.
