bsiJ they would not commit themselves
positively to what might be after all an
old WOman's Whim. Bare floors, with
here and there a rug for convenience
sake, are far preferable to carpets IN
sleeping rooms. But If carpets are used,
let them be light; so lig- # that their fre-
quent taking ~ and shaking vii not be
heavy task. Never use y CarVet con
tanning much green cOlOring matter
never buy paper in which 1t is a prOml-
nent color; repeated experiments have
proved them UnWhOlesOme. White
washed walls are the most cleanly and
safe, especially in a room which is apt to
gather dampness.
Windows should be made to open
both at the top and bottom, and never,
except during a storm, should be entire
" closed. Even the most delicate per
son can bear az little fresh air, if only
through an aperture half an inch in
width, and that little may have vital Ell.

on what seemed good authority, that
muddy water is a more healthy drink

foul air has not been recommended as

Giving him q Start.

A lOnesOme-lOOkiEg boy was hanging
sround a woodward a few days ago,
when the owner owner of the yard, hay
ing both charity and philanthropy for
boys with tears in their eyes, asked the
lad why he didn't peddle apples, or do
something to earn a few shillings. The
boy replied that he had no caDital, and
the wood man took out nickel and
said:
"Now, my boy, Pm going to start you
in life. Take this nickel and 90 and
purchase something or other. III buy
It of YOU for ten cents, no matter what
it is. Come, now, let's see what kind OF
A business head you have on you"
The boy took the nickel and went of;
but in ten minutes he was back with q
GALLON Jug, which he had purchased with
the nickel.
"Wen, you are a kecner," said the
man. / never saw one Of those sold for
less than fifteen cents TO amy one. L
want lust such Jug, and here is its fair
price. Now 20 and lay out your fifteen
cents in apples, and I'll buy half your
stock"
The boy did not return. Perhaps he
fell into q sewer somewhere; but you
can't make the woodward man believe
so. When he lifted the jug from under
the table where the boy had carefully
placed it, he found q hole In the bottom
Of it large enough to get in black-ond-
tan terrier.

Copying Faults.

Many people, when they are told to
Initiate the example Of Othe-. are very
much ike the Chinese tailor to whom
was given q coat as q pattern for q new
one which he was to make for an Eng
lish sea captain. Unfortunately the
sleeve of the pattern coat was patched
ut the elbow, and, when the new gar
ment was brought home with great salts
faction by the tailor, there was q patch
on the sleeve Of the new coat Just like
the old one.
Such people not only initiate the faults,
but are far more apt to excel in their
imitation of the bad than in their fol-
lowing the good qualities. 1t is easier
to copy the strut of q man who Is vain
than the Calmness and quiet courtesy or
the gentleman. Tt is much easier to iu4
itate the lame walk Of a wounded soldier
than to pattern after his bray cry and
endurance.
Let the faults alone and look only fOr
that which is truly worth copying, or
YOU will teach the lesson learned by the
sailors parrot, brought as q present to
his captains daughter.
While lying Ill with q severe cough he
had taught the parrot many pretty
phrases TO surprise Fanny; and 80, when
the bird was brought to her room, Fam
ny was delighted to hear it cry Outl
"Long live Fanny long live FannyF'
but tie parrot always ended his pretty
salute with such q natural imitation Of
the Sailors splitting and coughing as
quite to take away Fanny's pleasure at
] the gift. She could never take delight
in the birds fine phrases for they were
always accompanied by the too clever
/ imitation Of the sailors unfortunate
habit.
Copy only the agreeable and the use
III, the true and the good.

Sunday Afternoon in Germany.

The close Of the afternoon service is the
SIGNAL for the commencement of the
Sunday revels. On ordinary Sundays
the men play skittIes at the public hOu-
ses. while the women sit together IN
groups at their doors, and gossip or sing,
or do nothing but whenever the people
have any money in their pockets, and
can afford to pay for a band, they get up
dances and amusements. An excuse for
such festivities Is never Wanting-a

all interested in the welfare of this
county. The figures show that our
present county officials are using every
precaution to lessen the current ex-
penses for the year 1879. The total
amount issued in warrants since the
commencement of this fiscal year, is
S24, ,067.O4, and of this sum there have
been paid S12, ,5s7. 7.53, leaving the out
standing Indebtedness only 81, ,479.5l.
The economy in the financial status of
the county will be better appreciated,
when the amount Of warrants issued
last year for the same time is compared
with the present. AT this time last
season there were issued in county
warrants S26, ,165,05, subtracting the
issue of this year, saving to the coun-
ty of 2,09S.01 is found as the result.
This economy has been brought about
too, in the short period Of five months.
If our officials go on with their well
doing at the same ratio per month, they
will have saved the county about five
thousand dollars at the close of the
present year.

OPINIONS ON OHIO
BY the New York Press-Soft Money not
Popular.

New York, June 5.-The action of
the political convention in Ohio yester-
day, was variously commented upon by
the journals here to-day. The Importance
of the Ohio position is regarded as i'm
portant in view of the approaching ma
tional election. The Times regards the
proceedings of the democratic conven-
tion as a surrender to the rag baby, and
says that Ewing's nomination cannot
be regarded as a strong one, after re-
viewing his career and exploding his so
called popularity with the greenback-
ers. The Times says it is now to the
interest of Tilden that the representa-
tive of Thurman should not carry Ohio.
With these difficulties to contend with,
it is not too much to say that Ewing's
prospects in the October election are
gloomy. The greenbackers refused the
bait which was undoubtedly intended
for them in the nomination of Ewing.
Whether their movement is one of
sincere conviction, or whether it is SIM
ply ''strike' for action, is what might
have been expected of them.
The Times in another article says the
name of Ewing was presented to the
convention by a representative demo-
crat, who was too drunk to be able to
speak audibly or walk steadily.
His nomination was carried amid
such a scene of disorder as could not
have been surpassed even in conven-
tion led by Tweed.
The Sun says the result is surprise
and has no comment to make.
The World says if Ewing can COM
fortably stand upon his platform by
adoption, the ardor of his sentiments
upon the question of finance must have
been much mitigated since he last gave
formal utterance to them. 1t is salts
factory to remark that the familiar
buga-boo of the west, Tilden, does not
in any way appear as an actor in the
contest within the convention, at least
not on theupper side of that contest. In
another article the World says it would
not be easy even for Blaine himself to
raise the "rebel yell'' against the de-
mocracy of Ohio, which has made two
union soldiers its standard bearers.

Washington, June 1.-The following
message from the president was received
by both houses to-day:
To the senate and house of repre-
sentatives:-I transmit herewith the
proceedings and report of the board of
officers convened by special order No.
7S, Headquarters of the army, Washing
ton, April IL, 1873, in the case of
Fitz John Porter. The report of the
board was made in March last, but the
official record of the proceedings did
not reach me until the Sd instant. 1
have given to this report such exami-
nation as satisfies me that / ought to
lay the proceedings and conclusions of
the board before congress, as / am with
out power in the absence of legislation
to act upon the recommendation of the
report further than by submitting the
same to congress. The proceedings
and conclusions Of the board are trans
mitted for the information of congress
and such action as in your wisdom
shall seem expedient and just.
