A Man With Thirty Children.

The Stroll family, of this county, is
probably the largest family in the
United States. The head of the house
is Nicholas Stroll, Pennsylvania Ger
man, now about seventy-six years old.
BY three wives he has had thirty chill
dren, twenty-seven of whom are living.
His first wife presented him with eight,
his second with eleven, and his third
with eleven. The youngest child is now
three years old, and was born when the
father was seventy-three years old. OF
the twenty-seven children nineteen are
married, and their families average
about eight children. Mr.. Joel Strohl,
one of the well-known farmers in the
lower end, and child of his father first
wife, has seventeen children, and he is
not an old man by any means. He is
the father of two pairs of twins, a dis
tinetiOn which his father, Mr. Nicholas
Stroll, never attained. If the families
should gather together there would be
over 200 persons. They nearly all re-
side in this county. Old Mr. Stroll is
still hearty and bids fair to live many
years. .-Mauch Chunk Pa. Coal Gazette.

THE CHILDREN.

When the lessons and tasks are all ended,
And the school for the day is dismissed,
And the little ones gather around me
To bid me goodnight and be kissed
Oh, the little white arms that encircle
Ny neck in a tender embraced
Oh, the smiles, that are halos Of Heaven,
Shedding sunshine of love on my facel
Aud when they are gone, sit dreaming
OF my childhood, too lovely to last;
OF love that my heart will remember
When II wakes 70 the pulse of the past,
Ere the world and it's wickcdness made me
= A partner of sorrow and sin;
When the glory of God was about me,
And the glory of gladness within.
Oh. my heart grows weak as a womsn's,
And the fountains of feeling will flow,
As think of the paths steep and stony,
Where the feet of the dear ones must go;
OF the mountains of sin hanging DER them,
OF the tempest of fate blowing wild
Oh. there IL nothing on earth half so holy
As the innocent heart of a child
These are idols of hearts and of households,
These are angels of God in disguise,
This sunlight still sleeps in their tresses
This glory still CLEANS in their eyes.
Oh, those truants from home and from Heaven,
They have made me more manly and mild!
And know how Jesus could liken
The Kingdom of God to a child.
ask not life for the dear ones
All radiant as others have done,
But that life may have Just enough shadow
Totemper the glare of the sun.
would pray God to guard them from evil,
But my prayer would bound back to myself.
Ali tseraph may pray for sinner,
But sinner must pray for himself.
The twig Ia so easily bended,
have banished the rule and the rod.
have taught them the goodness of knowledge
They have taught me the goodness of God.
My heart is dungeon of darkness,
Where shut them from breaking a rule.
My frown il sufficient correction.
My love is the law of the school.
shall leave the old house in the autumn,
To traverse its threshold no more;
All! how shall sigh for the dear ones
That meet me each morn at the door.
! shall miss the good-nights and the kisses,
And the gush of their innocent glee.
The group on the green, and the flowers
That arc brought every morning to me.
i shall miss them at noon and at eve,
Their song in the school and the street.
i shall miss the low hum of their voices
And the tramp of their delicate feet.
When the lessons and tasks are all ended,
And Death says: The school is dismissed"
May the little ones gather around me
To bid me goodnight " and be kissed"
- Charles Dickens.

A Recipe for Mullins.

AS we all know, there are some wom-
en- who are natural cooks. The mat
ural depravity of inanimate objects"
seems charmed away when they get
hold of bowl or spoon. Their ovens al
ways bake on both top and bottom.
Soups never scorch, nor biscuits sour.
They always carry their recipes in their
heads. With what exasperating indefi-
niteness do they answer you when you
ask them how they make any particu-
lar thing-muffins, for instance.
Dear me, never have much of a
rule about such things"
"But can't you give me little ideaP
John has so often spoken of your muf-
fins since we took tea with you, and
really should like to learn how to make
them"
"Well, 1 stir up a pretty stiff batter;
depends something on how many folks
l have to tea"
"Do you use milkP'
"Yes, if l have it; if not, take
water"
Amy eggsP'
"Well if eggs are cheap, l break in
couple; if they are dear, don't al
ways"
"You use some butterP"
80 yes! piece about as big as an
egg"
She pauses, as if that were all. You
timidly suggest
Cream tartar or soda?"
A look of surprise creeps over her
face, as if she would say: "What does
the woman mean by asking so many
questions?' but she says:
"Well, if l have sour milk, l dom t
use cream tartar; if the milk's sweet,
put in couple of spOonfuls of cream
tartar and one of soda"
You wish you dared to ask whether
it's table or tea spoOnfuls she means,
but, if you are anovice, think it must be
table-spoonfuls, the mullins are so very
light.
She evidently now considers the
thing complete.
"You haven said anything about the
fiourP" YOU inquire-witb inward trem-
bling; but you really do wish to please
John. .... ....
The look of surprise changes to a
wide-eyed amazement.
Flour! Why, supposed any goose
would know about that. A good bowl
full, of course. l always use my own
Judgment about the -four"
You retire from the field discounted,
but, not being easily discouraged, try to
follow these directions" The result
is something very different from Mrs.
Handy's delicate mullins. John breaks
one open very suspiciously, and, after
a minutes inspection, pushes back his
plate-with that expression of huge
patience which men assume when they
want 70 say something severe but don't,
and says:
Haven't you any bread; MaryF
Don't let the children touch these.
They are as tough as leather Why
don't you ask Mrs. Handy how she
makes her muffinsP They're some
thing like"
You nerve yourself and pleasantly
ask If he wouldn't like a slice of dry
toast. (Such a comfort as dry toast il
under such circumstancesD In a week
or two, after series of experiments,
you finally evolve from your "inner
consciousness" and flour and eggs,
some very creditable mufins-but you

Honor I'm His own Land.

Says Comley In his recently-issued work,
The History of New York State, "The day has
passed when the benefactors of humanity
were allowed to live In ignominious poverty
their sacrifices, their labors, unrecompensed.
To-day, the benefactors Of the people-the
men who devote their lives and energies to the
interests of humanity-these are the men
it rewards with princely fortunes. As an
earnest worker for the welfare Of his fellow
men, Dr. K. V. Pierce has won their warmest
sympathy and esteem. While seeking to be
their servant only, he has become a prince
among them. Yet the immense fortune Law
ished upon him by generous people he boards
not, but invests in the erection and establish
ment of institutions directly contributive to
the public good, the people thus realizing, In
their liberal patronage, a new meaning of that
beautiful Oriental custom OF casting bread
upon the waters. Noted in both public and
private life for his answering integrity and
all those sterling virtues that ennoble man
hood, DIR. Pierce ranks high among those few
men, whose names the Empire State is justly
proud to inscribe upon her roll OF honor. Am
bilious, yet moved by an ambition strictly
amenable to the most discriminating and we'll
balanced judgment, his future career promises
to be one of unparalleled activity and useful
ness, ably supplementing the work he has al
ready accomplished, by life at once noble in
effort, envlable in its grand results" While
DR.. Pierce's genius and energy have won for
him SO enviable position ON the records of :
overwhelming majority, his justly-celebrated
Household Remedies have gained for him yet
more desirable place In the hearts of CRATE
full people. His Golden Medical Discovery
and Favorite Prescription have brought health
and happiness to ten thousand households.

Bishop as a Good Man.

Gov. BISHOP, of Ohio, is now very
good man, but long time ago he was
very wicked. At one time he made the
Friends at Cincinnati pay him $3, 900 in
money before he would allow them to
build a church upon a corner lot oppo-
site his residence. AS he is Governor
of the great State of Ohio, and draws
his pays as he is director Of the great
Southern Railroad swindle and draws
his pay, and runs wholesale grocery
between times, and from the fact that
he is no longer wicked, but a possible
candidate for the Presidency, it would
be a good mark of his goodness to pay
back that $4,000 to the good Quakers,
The world wants its great men to show
they are truly good by their fruits
