How He Cured a Smoky Chimney.

Yesterday as citizen was helping tin
smith to elevate smokejack to the roof
of an addition on the windy side of the
house, preparatory to hosting it atop of
smoking chimney, an old man with q
ragged bundle under his arm came along,
halted, and soon became interested.
"That chimbly smokes, don't it," he
finally inquired.
cts the worst one in town." replied
the citizen.
"And you want to stop the nuisance,
eh?'
eyes, do"
"And you think the smoke-jack will
do it,"
II hope So"
SWELL. now, I kin stop that smoking
IN ten minits, land won't hurt the chimb-
~ nor put up any smoke; jacks" contin-
ued the old man, as he laid down his
bundle. ...s.
"If you'll do it I'll give five dollars"
rejoined the citizen, who disliked the idea
OF disfguring his chimney with the
clumsy jack.
'sKin I have the kitchen for five min
utes?" asked the man.
The cook was instructed to vacate, and
and the old man took possession Re-
moving the top Of the stove he put in
enough water to put out every spark of
ire. Then going out he called to the
citizen on the top of the roof.
HAS shelstopped smoking?"
"We]l don't see any smoke at ALL
was the reply; "what have you dones"
While he was coming down the ladder
the old man made off, eating pie he had
taken from the oven. The last half of it
he had to bolt down while on the run,
but at no time in the race did the citizen,
tlnsmith or servant girl get within twenty
rods of him.

For the Thoughtful.

Have self respect that never slum bers
nor permit yourself to descend into Cos
sip.
Mankind worships success, but think
too little of the means by which it is at
tanned.
The devil owes most of his success to
the fact that he is always on hand.
The man who is curious to see how the
world could get along without him
can find out by sticking cambria needle
into mill pond and then withdrawing
it and looking at the hole.
We are haunted by an ideal life, and it
is because we have within US the begin
ming and possibility of it.
Grant glaciously what you cannot re-
fuse safely nd conciliate those you can
not conquer.
The di ference between gossip and
truth is that no one will ever stop to
question Jour veracity when you are in
dulging d the first. but he wants you on
oath whea you are speaking solemn facts.
This SEEMS to me great truth, in any
exile, or chaos whatsoever, that sorrow
was not gwen us Tor sorrows sake, but
always, and infallibly, as lesson to US,
from witch we are to learn somewhat,
and With, the somewhat once learned,
ceases te be sorrow.--Carzyze.
No york, however menlal, can make
an honet poor man lose his self-respect.
DO whttever you can get to do, and do
IL so wdl that your employer will see
that yol are fit for something better, and
the TIM is not far off when you will be-.
gin to Use.
Whe1 man leaves our side and goes
to the other side, he is a traitor, and we
always feel that there was subtle some
thing wrong about him. But when a
man l'aves the other side, and comes
over to us, then heis man of great NOR
al couRge, and we always feel that he
had stirling stuff in him.

Health Hints.

Wash For The Mouth- Dissolve a
spoonful of black current jelly in half a
cup OF hot water, and add two Jumps of
sugar. Keep it in the mouth as long az
possible. but do not swallow it. It will
give relief when the tongue is dry or the
mouth foul.
Oatmeal Tea for InvalSds.-This is a
good drink in sickness, as it both nour-
lshes and refreshes. Put three table
spoonfuls of meal into quart Jug, with
a small pinch of salt. Mix with a little
cold water, stirring briskly the while.
Let 1t stand to settle, and use either hot
or cold. This also makes acapital drink
for the harvest or hay field, and the less
salt put into it the better.

How John Chinaman Paid the Bills

A lady correspondent writes as follows
concerning the heather Chinee to the
Philadelpia Times:
I once took China boy who had re.
Gently been employed in boarding
house. One of his duties was to attend
the dOor-the same as he had done in
his former place. As he spoke English
fairly I had no doubt he could do il
properly. At the end of the month
the regular bills for the house becaming
due, none of them came in. waited from
day to day, and wondered what could
cause such delay among people who
were always so prompt to collect. One
day had been out, and as I opened the
door on my return l found in the hall q
delinquent notice from the water com.
psny, saying if the dues were not paid
at once the water would be discontinued
Full of wrath I fastened to the Spring
Valley Office, on California street, to in.
quire into the meaning of what consid.
cred very strange proceeding. TOLD
told them | felt aggrieved that they
should serve me with such notice when
the bill had not been presented.
The collector just then came in anc
said he had been there SO many times ano
was always met by some trivial excuse
by the China boy that he had no othe,
recourse. I went home and interviewed
johnnie, and succeeded in getting the
whole story. He began taking bills from
all sorts of improbable places until all the
missing papers were found, and as ht
told tkem off one after another, he ex
planned thus: "Him likee money. M
tellee him you gone out. Him like
money. Me tellee him you welly sick
no can see. Him likee money. Me telle,
him you move," and so on to the end O
the list. ooh! I too smart for him." sale
John, who seemed delighted with hi
own sagacity in avoiding payment, ane
seemed much crestfallen at my anger
He said: ''N1e thjnkee you alice same
Missy Jones. You catchee money yo,
keeDe."

Mangero was the medium of communi.

Mangero was the medium of communi-
ton.
He translated the communication
from the Japanese to English for the
commodore, and his reply into Japanese
for the Japanese government. In various
ways, by his influence in no small de-
gree, Japan has emerged from condi-
ton of medieval stagnation to that of the
magnificent enterprise she now exhibits.
John Mangero is now a man of lead
ing influence in public affairs in Japan.
The psrtiality the Japanese government
has manifested for the United States is
doubtless due in no small degree to him.

To Young Men.

Do not work for. fame Work to do
good. Qualify yourself to do all the
good it is possible for you to do. I'm
prove the mind. Acquire stores of
knowledge, and use that knowledge to
benefit mankind. Fame will come if
you merit it. If you do not merit it, YOU
may seek it till you 60 to your grave,
Daily globe., 1879-03-16

and never grasp it. Have definite OBJ
ject. Let that be worthy one-a phil
althropic one, if possible. March steadily
forward-not daily, but hourly-toward
the object you have in view. No matter
what obstacles are to be scaled, never
yield till you are victorious. Men who
work for fame, never get it. It comes, if
at all, because it is merited; because of
superior qualifications exercised in the
discharge of duty; because Of noble deeds
done for humanity-and, in hundred
other ways, because of work done merit
ing it.
The only way to gain fame is to 90
something to win it. If sought for in
that way, it will avoid your grasp like
an apparition.- Colem0n's Rural World.

THE PANIER RESTORED.
The most pointed surprise of the new
season is the restoration of the panier, OF
the so-called Camargo puff, which was in
troduced in the eighteenth century along
with the Vatican. dresses and garden
theatricals. It is predicted that fashion
will restore the very Camargo which was
once called "a rage and a vertigo" but
until it is safe to venture upon extrava-
gance paniers will be of the same mater
ial as the dress, and procured more by
looping, draperies and trimmings
than by separate puhs, wings. &C., ap-
piled to the costume.
For ordinary walking dresses 'strim-
med" skirt--thatis is a skirt with the trim
ming arranged directly On it, is combin-
ed with jacket more or less tight fitting
or an overskirt and short skirt, the latter
either trimmed with simple founce or
left plain, according to the goods used
Polonaises Of simple designs are also en-
ployed to complete costumes, but are not
so fashionable as the above mentioned
arrangements. For suitings the "tailor''
fnish-rows of machine stitching-is the
accepted trimming, the vest, collars,
cuffs and revers of some different mate
rial from the rest of the garment. For
costumes made of cloth and the heavier
woolen goods used for early spring and
travelling the underskirt is not unfre-
quently without trimming of any kind,
excepting several rows Of stitching near
the bottom, and the overskirt is of some
simple design, like the "Birena," the
''Muriel" or the "Lilea," finished to
match the underskirt.

A Disease TINT Wrecks tne System.

Every function is dcrangcd, every nerve
unstrung. every muscle and fibro weakened
by fever and ngue. 1t is, in fact, disease
which if unchecked, eventually wrecks the
system. In all lis types, in every phase, it
is dangerous, destructive. Stupor, delirium,
convulsions, often attend it, and cause swift
dissolution. But when combatted with
Hostcttcr's Stomach Ditters its foothold in
the system is dislodged, and every vestige
of it cradicated. That benign anti-febrile
specific and preventive OF the dreaded
sconrgc is recognized not only within our
own boundaries. but in tropc lands far be-
yond them, where intermittents and remit
tents are fearfully prevalent, to be a sure
antidote to the mnlarial poison and a relia-
bic means of overcoming disorders of the
stomach, liver and bowels, of which a yitia-
ted torrid atmosphere and brackish miasma.
