A Brave Little Lady.

A correspondent from the upper Indi-
an county sends US the following item
of interest: A young boy, Is years of
age, a member of the Eighteenth Infan-
try band, and son of the leader of that
band, became enamored of young
lady early last Winter, while the band
was posted at Atlanta, Georgia. The
young lady was sweet sixteen, and it was
a case of love at first sight. After a
brief engagement they were married:
Soon after the regiment was ordered
to Fort Assinniboine, Montana. The
soldiers got ready to depart, and the
young lady also prepared to accompany
them and not until the last moment did
the young married couple learn that no
provision had been made for taking the
young lady along. She had to remain
behind, in spite of protestations and
tears, and to the infinite disgust of the boy
husband. 1t was then arranged that be
should send for her just as soon as he
got fairly settled in his new quarters.
But the little lady had other inten-
tions. She didn't propose to rest on
downy cushions in Georgia while her
new found husband was blowing horn
way out in the wilds of Montana. Not
any. So as soon as the regiment de-
parted she procured pass to Cincinnati.
There she succeeded in getting one to
Chicago. At Chicago she presented her.
self to Gen. R. Ingalls,, Quartermasler-
General, and stated her case to him and
at once aroused his sympathies. He gave
her letters to railroad officials by which
she got to st. Paul. There she interviewed
the officials of the Northern Pacific and
captured pass to Bismark. At Bis
mark she paid her respects to the mana.
gers of the Coulson line and secured
passage to Coal Banks and from thence
to Fort Assinniboine, and without warn
ing or notification, dropped down upon
her boy husband at the fort. Wasn't it
a nice meeting? Well, now you can
we'll imagine that it was better than
strawberries and ice cream. Apd wasn't
she a jewel of baby wife for pluck, en-
durance determination and love. She is
described as being q very pretty lady of
medium size, with dark hair and eyes, a
good talker, but withal a modest, we'll
behaved little lady, who made the trip
of 1000 miles without danger, although
not without fear.-Siour City Journal.

An ELoPEMENT FRUsTRATED.-Au
English girl near Manchester tied q
string to her toe and let 1.-THE string,
not the toe-hang out the window for a
gentleman friend to pull in order that
she might not miss her music lesson.
The rector of the church, it is further
stated, hearing of the arrangement, re-
fused the couple the sacrament. And
this reminds US of little story. Once
upon a time young lady who desired
to get up with the lark in order to go on
an eloping tour, adopted the English
girls plan, and the lover was to be on
hand at day-break to give the signal.
The string used for the pedal was stout
cord, and one end was dropped out of a
third-story window into the back yard,
and the other end attached to the dam
sers great toe. And the legend runs
that a healthy goat of the William per-
suasion arose early the next morning to
look for the early worm, as it were, and
wandered into the yard; after eating up
all the tomato cans, barrel staves, and
broken crockery ware, he found the
string and took that in as desert. AS
soon as the string was drawn taut the
goat stood upon his hind legs and gave
the string an impulsive jerk. The girl
awoke. The goat gave another sudden
pull, and the maiden jumped out of the
bed with a smothered cry of pain. Then
she stopped down to detach the cord Just
as the ridicnlons beast gave another vio-
lent jerk, aud she lost her equilibrium
and her toe, too, almost-the cord cutting
into the tender flesh. She sprang to the
window and called in hoarse whisper,
"stop pulling, Charles, I'll be down in a
minute" Then she made another effort
to unite the cord, but that diabolical goat
gave his head several angry bobs, and
each time the girl gave cry of pain.
Again she softly called out in the dark
ness: "Charlie, if you dor't stop jerking
that way I'll not come down at all"
She was answered by another savage pull,
and the cry of anguish that escaped from
her lips brought her mother in with a
look of alright and lighted lamp. The
young lady tainted, the elopement was
nipped in the bud, and the disappointed
maiden's big toe was sore for two weeks.
The goat escaped.

DIR. G.. McLANE'S
CELEBRATED
LIVER PILLS,
FOR THE CURE OF
Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint,
DYsrErsiA AND SICK HEADACHE
Symptoms of a DiseasedLiver

DAIN in the right side, under the
L edge Of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen.
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally considerable loss of men,
ory, accompanied with painful SEN
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several Of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.

WHAT MAKES Bow-LEGs.-Bow-legs
and knock knees are among the common
est deformities of humanity, and a Man
chester (England) physician, DR.. Comp
ton, attributes the first mentioned distor-
ton to habit some youngsters delight
in, of rubbing the sole of one foot against
that of the other; some will 60 to sleep
with the soles together. They appear to
enjoy the contact cnly when the feet are
naked; they don't attempt to make it
when they are socked or slippered. So the
remedy is obvious; keep the baby's soles
covered. Knock-knees the doctor as
cribes to different childish habit, that
of sleeping on the side, with one knee
tucked under the hollow behind the
other. He has found that where one
leg has been bowed inward more than
the other, the patient has always slept
on one side, and the uppermost member
has been the most deformed. Here the
preventive is to pad the inside of the
knees, so as to keep them apart and let
the limbs grow freely their own way.
All of which is commended to mothers
who desire the physical uprightness OF
their progeny.

How DEEPLY DOES THE EARTH
QAKE.-The recent earthquake at Vir-
ginia City was not noticed at all in the
mining depths, but only by the people
on the surface. Their famous earthquake
of some time ago, which shook down
chimneys and Prevails, cracked brick
buildings and did other damage, was
merely noticed by some of the miners
working in the upper levels, but did no
damage, not even shaking down loose
stones and earth. The station-men in
the various shafts felt it the strongest, and
the deepest point where it was no noticed
was by the station-tender at the 9OO-foot
level of Imperial Empire shaft-9OO feet
below the surface. He said it felt like a
sudden faint tbrob or pulsation OF the
air, as though blast had been let OIL at
a distance above, below, or in some in
definite direction. In some of the mines
the shock was not noticed at all, even by
station men. Commenting on this pc.
culiar fact at the time, the Gold Hill
Nems remarked that the earthquake
seemed to be an electrical distcrbance,
proceeding from the atmosphere and not
from the depths of the carth.-'Sacrame'-

A MIRACLE.

WEST POINT, GA, Sept 16, 1870.
GESTs-My daughter was taken on the 10Th day
of June, 1868 with what was supposed to be Acute
rheumatism, and was treated for the same with no
success. In March, following, pieces of bone be-
gan to work out of the right arm, and continued
to appear till all the bone from the elbow to tho
shoulder joint came out. Many pieces of bone
came out Of the right foot and leg. The case was
then pronounced one Of White Swelling. After
having been confined about six years to her bed,
and the case considered hopeless, was induced to
try DR.. Pemberton's Compound Extract of Stillin-
gia and was 30 well satisfied with its effects that
have continued the use of II until the present.
My daughter was confined TO her bed about six
years before she sat up or even turned over with
out help. She now sits up all day, and scws most
of her tmc-has walked across the room. Her
general health Is now good, and believe she will,
as her limbs gain strength, walk we'll attribute
her recovery, with the blessing OF God, to the use
of your invaluable medicine
With gratitude, am yours truly, o>-
