GOOD ADVICE.


Says the Elmira Gazette: ''No; do not
learn a trade, young man. You might
soil your hands, wilt your shirt collar
and spoil your complexion, sweating.
Go and hang your chin ever counter;
learn to talk twaadle to the ladies;
part your hair in the middle; make an
ass of yourself generally, and work for
wages that wouldn't support Chinese
laundryman on rice-fed rats and leave a
big enough balance to pay his washer
woman-just because it is little more
genteel in the eyes of the people whose
pride prevent them from pounding rock
or hewing wood, and whose poverty
pinches worse than one of those patent
cross-legged clothes-pins, if the truth
were only told"

easier by dipping them in hot water
about minute.
2. That fish may AS we'll be scaled,
If desired, before packing down in salt;
though in this case do not scald
them.
8. Salt fish are quickest and best
freshened by soaking in sour milk.
4. That milk which is turned or
changed may be sweetened and rendered
fit for use again by stirring in n little
soda.
5. That salt will curdle new milk; (;
hence, in preparing milk porridge,

ded until the dish is prepared.
6. That fresh meat after beginning
to sour, will sweeten. if placed out Of
doors in the cool over night.
Z. That clear boiling water will re-
move tea stains and many fruit stains.
Pour the water through the stains, and
thus prevent its spreading over the
fabric.
s. That ripe tomatoes will remove
ink and other stains from white cloth;
also from the hands.
Q. That teaspoonful of turpentine
boiled with your white clothes will aid
the whitening process.
10. That beeswax and salt will
make your fiat irons as clean and
smooth rs glass. Tie lamp of wax
in rag, and keep it for that purpose.
When the irons are hot, rub them first
with the wax rag then scour with a
paper or cloth sprinkled with suet.
ii. That blue ointment and kero-
sene, MIXED in equal proportions and
applied to bedsteads, is an unfailing bed
bug remedy; and that coat of whito-
wash is ditto for the walls of log
houses.
IL. That kerosene will soften boots
or shoes that have been hardened by
water, and render them as pliable as
new.
Is. That kerosene will keep tin ket-

rag and rub with it. 1t will also re-
move stains from clean vanished fur

On a certain occasion Sargent s.
PIentiss, the famous Mississippi orator,
who visited Boston and addressed its
citizens in Faneuil Hall. A gentleman
who heard him, thena venerable Judge,
told this anecdote, which illustrates the
the orators power. Unable to procure
a seat, he stood jammed by the crowd.
As Mr.. Prentiss began. to speak, the
gentleman took out his watch to time
him. As he was replacing it in his fob
something in the orators manner and
words arrested his attention. He
found it impossible to take away his
eyes or ears. He forgot the presence
of the crowd, his own fatigue, the pas
sage of the time, everything but the
speaker. Mr.. Prentiss seemed fatigued.
So intense was the sympathy of the
venerable man with him that he found
himself breathing rapidly and painful
ly.
At last the orator, exclaiming, "My
powers fail |" sank exhausted into =
chair.
Not till then did the aged listener
discover that his hand was still holding
his watch at the opening of its pocket.
He looked at it. He had stood in that
crowd listening for three hours and ff-
teen minutes. Near him stood an aged
minister who, tremulous with excite
ment, exclaimed
"Will any one ever doubt again that
God inspires manf'

GOVERNOR rAmprox's DREAM.
1e Believes IEiS Life Saved by the Prayers
OF IIis People.

The editor Of the Columbia, IS. c.,
LfegtsteT, in the course of most inter
esting account Of visit to Governor
Hampton, whom he found greatly i'm
proyedinstrength and steadily recovering
from the severe trials through which he
has recently passed, tells a striking sto-
ry Of dream which the Governor had
at the crisis Of his case, and tells it in
the Governors own words. The visit
or, about TO take bis leave, said to the
Governor "At least in all your seri-
GUS illness you bad the devoted love Of
your own people"
"Ah, yes, sir" was the hearty, deep
toned reply, "never more. / believe,
as confidently as do that 1 live, that
the prayers Of the people saved my
life. ] will tell You why ] feel and be-
lieve it 80 firmly. Whilst / was lying
here at the point of death and had be-
come utterly Indifferent whether died
or lived, got a letter from an old
Methodist preacher, one of my old
friends. He wrote me word informing
me of the deep and devout petitions
put up in behalf Of my restoration by
the Methodist Conference then in ses-
sion at Newberry. He then urged up
on me to exercise my will 10 live in re-
spense to the supplications Of the peo-
pie Of the whole State, who were pray
ing for me night and day in every
house in the State. Ny sister, who
had tremblingly brought the letter to
my bedside and read it to me, then
urged me to listen to the kind, loving
words of the man of God and to rouse
my will to live, and l promised her to
do so. / fell into deep sleep that
night, and the most vivid dream ever
experienced in my life crossed my
slumbers. ! dreant was in spacious

parts Of the State SO that / naet my

member most distinctly of all old

thing like it before. 1t seemed vision.
l woke the next morning feeling the
life-blood creeping through my veins,
and / told my family the crisis was

At the close of the touching and
thrilling relation, we bade him good-by,
heartily wishing him speedy recovery
and many, many long years of health
and usefulness.

A PREDICTION.

We desire to put on record this pre-
diction: John Sherman will be i'm
peached, convicted and sentenced by
the people, if not by the courts, to life
long exclusion from public life, if, in
deed, he escapes the close communion
Of a States prison. These Shermans
are bad lot-the very essence of old
time federalism.
Their father reieiced over the Amer
lean defeat at the river Raisin, in the
war Of 1912, and was so enthusiastic
over the 'Big INDIAN" Tecumseh, that
he named baby after him-the pres
ent Commander-in- Chief of the Army.
His brother, a Judge, resigned to save
himself from impeachment by even a
Mongrel Congress, and this de tacto
Secretary, who hasbecome u millionaire
on his pay as Congressm IN, nomina-
ted Hayes as his tool, and by his man
ipulation Of the miserable negroes of
Louisiana, actually forced him against
the will of two-thirds of the American
people into the White House as the de
.factO PRESIDENT He has now, it seems,
been turning over some forty millions
of the peoples money to bank, ia
which he is no doubt largely interested,
and as the next Congress Is Democratic
we predict either this or his ether
"higher law" rascalities viii find him
out, and there will beian end of him

Maud Muller worked at raking hay,
And cleared her forty cents day.
Her clothes were coarse, but ber health
was fine,
And 80 she worked in the sweet sunshine.
Singing a. glad as bird in May
barbara Alien" the Iivelong day.
She often glanced at the.far-of town.
And wondered If eggs were up or down.
And tho sweet song died Of strange dis
ease,
Leaving phantom taste Of cheese.
And an appetite and nameless ache
For soda wator and q ginger cake.
The Judge rode slowly into view
Stopped his horse in the shade and drew
His fne-cut out, while the blushiDg Maud
MarvelIed much at the kind he "chawed."
"He was dry as a fish," he said with q
wink,
"And ind-o'-thought thatA good square
drink
Would brace him up" So the cup was
filed
with the crystal wine that the old spring
spilled.
"A thousand thanksi for a sweeter draught
From Eairer hand" but there he laugh
ed.
And the sweet girl stood in the sun that
day,
And raked the Judge instead OF the hay.

rejoined his mess "Boys have you
heard OF the new poem written aboard
ship the other night by Frank Key
It's got the true ring TO II. Attention,
company and judge for yourselves.
II was rude copy, written like my
grandsire's letter, in scrawl, which
Rufus Choate might have mistaken for
his. An accomplished elocutionist, the
pathetic eloquenee Of tho grand inspir-
alton lost none of it's native fervor
through the readers lips. Three times
he read II aloud, his audience ever in
creasing, until the entire division seem
cd electrified by the poets doubt and
triumph. Suddenly an idea seized his
brother Fredric. Hunting up q vol
ume Of flute music which was in a
Reighboring tent, he rapidly whistled
from it snatches Of tune just as they
caught his quick eye. Finally one
called "Anaereon in. Heaven" struck
his fancy, aud It's peculiar rythm riv-
eted his attention. Note after note
fell from his puekered lips, until with
leap and shout, he exclaimed, "Boys,
I've got it r Fitting the tune to the
words that Charles had just read, he
rang out for the first time the song Of
the "Star Spangled Banner" How
the men shouted and clapped their
hands and joined in the chorus, for
never was there n wedding Of poetry
to music made under more harmonious
influences. Soon after, tho brothers
sang it upon the stage of Holiday
street theatre. IL was caught up in
the camps, sang around bivouac fires
and whistled in the streets, aud when
peace once moro settled over tho loved
land, carried TO thousands of fircsidss
as the most precious trophy Of the war
Of 1912. The During brothers lie in
unknown graves. Francis Keys dust
reposes in Mount Olive Cemetery of
Fredrie City, with but Il trees shadow
between it and the tomb of Dame Bar
bara Freitche, and ere another Centen-
NAL the record of them may have
passed away but that song will live as
long as our country wears it's bonny old
flag or there remains an American boy
To sing its praise.

now $1,000 WAS FOUND IN A TREE.

A treasure up a tree was seen In the
watches of the night by peddler, who
was sleeping in farmhouse. in the
Shenandoah valley. He told his dream
to the farmer next morning, and on
three successive nights he had the Same
vision Then he prevailed upon the
farmer to accompany him to the forest,
where he pointed out a large oak tree
as the one he had seen in his dream.
It was apparently sound at the butt,
but about twenty feet up limb had
been broken Off The farmer did not
feel like humoring what he supposed to
bea superstitious whim, but the old fel-
low seemed to have confidence in his
vision, and offered him one.half of the
spoils if he would help him to cut
down the tree. When the tree fell,
there was rattle of coin near where
the limb had been broken off, and a
small hollow was found there. By a
little chopping a lerge cavity was
found, and within was a mass of silver.
Both seemed wild with delight. and on
counting up found that the pile
amounted to $4,000. The peddler ex-
pressed his unwillingness to carry
around so much silver in his pockets,
and inquired where he would be likely
to got greenbaeks for his share. The
farmer, having considerable money in
his house, Immediately transferred to
the peddler $4,000 in paper money and
took charge of the entire lot of silver.
The peddler disappeared, and when his
partner attempted to pass some of the
silver, 10 it was counterft. He was
the victim of gang of coiners.-

SECTIONAL PRIDE.


They tell of a New Hampshire
school teacher near Fitchburg, who had
a class in geography on the floor the
other day, and she asked one of them
what the soil was in New Hampshire.
The answer was s'sterile." The teach
er, highly indignant, said the soil was
as good in New Hampshire as in Mass
achusetts. The scholar spunkily denied
it, and added, "Father had bull in a
pasture in New Hampshire, and the
soil was SO poor that the bull starved
to death. They could not get earth
enough to bury him, and had to collect
pieces of wood and burn him" The
teacher found the boy was posted, and
did not continue the argument.

A GESTLEMAXLY TRAMP.

A tramp's reputation as a gentleman
of leisure whose impulses are good,
albeit his habits are bad, and who, like
Joseph Poorgrass, "feels his humble
gratitude" for favors received, stands
vindicated. Four years ago, Dakota
farmer-a brother-in-law, by the way,
of Kellogg, who fell beside General Gus
ter, on the Little Big Horn-had fin
ished his supper, when dirty, ragged,
foot-sore tramp called at the house and
begged for something to eat, saying he
was on his way to California, but had
hard luck, having been taken sick
after starting Mr.. Stafford made him
welcome, and his wife went to work
and cooked supper for the stranger.
They not only allowed him to stay over
night, but entertained him for week,
until he had recovered his health. Two
months ago the stranger, who during
his four years absence in California
had ''struck it rich, went back to Da-
kota, and, in disguise, again spent the
night under Mr.. Safford's roof. The
next morning the tramp departed with
out making himself known and the
conversation and incident forgotten,
when the good people received through
the post Office sealed package, which
contained the deed of one of the finest
farms in the neighborhood, having a
good house, barn, stock, wagons, agri-
cultural implements and everything
complete. 1t was accompanied by an
explanatory letter, that the giyer wish
ed them to accept the deed Of this farm,
which he had purchased especially for
those who had divided with him in
need; and treated him kindly when
foot-sore and poor. He assured them
that he was the tramp they had enter
tanned years before.
