Trust n Boy.

During the session of the late Episco.
pal Convention in Boston, the Bishop OF
Louisiana in crossing the Common, met
a boy whose face he fancied, and, cali
ing him, asked if he had anything to do
lust tnen, to which he said: "No."
Z Are you q good boy?" The little fell
low scratched his head and replied:
Il am not a very good boy. l cuss
little sometimes" That candid answer
inspired the Bishop with confidence,
and he then said, after giving his name
and address:
81 want you to go to certain place
and get a bundle for me, and bring it to
nv hotel. There will be a charge of So;
here is the money to pay for it, and half
a dollar which you will keep for doing
the errand."
On his return to the hotel, the
Bishops friends laughed at him for his
creduIity, telling him that he would
never see the boy OF the bundle or the
money again, but in half an hour the
young chap returned, bringing the bum
die, and receip.ed bill for $3.50, the
Bishop having made slight mistake as
to the amount that was due. How did
you manage to pay the extra half dol

Items for the Local PaDer,

The following suggestions, made by
the editor of the Fishkill { n. Y } Stand
ard, are as pertinent to this locality as
to any other: We often have people say
to us: I intended to send you a little
item for the paper last week." mention
ing what it was about, but / didn't do
it," and then offer an excuse. Or another
person viii say: q You ought to have
been down to, or up to such or such a
place, and see such a thing that hap
pened there 1t would have made
good item" We are always gratifed at
the good intentions expressed by such
persons, but grieved that they let the
matter slip to post us on the matter in
question, when they could have done it
with so little trouble. We cannot be
everywhere, and while we may desire to
be at certain place our duty may re-
quire us somewhere else. Even if we
could be at the place indicated by. our
friend, who is especially interested in
the item he mentions, Oftentimes it
would not pay US to spend the time to
go there. But he, being thoroughly
conversant with the whole matter,
could write it out in few
minutes, and perhaps do a great deal
better than we could if we happened to
be there. No one need fear to send US
truthful items Write them with a lead
pencil, if that is handiest, on any kind
of paper that you can get hold of, put
your name to it so that we will know
who it comes from, not for publication,
and, if there is the least interest at
tached to your item, it will see daylight
in as good shape as we know how to
put it. This is intended for everybody,
Who will send the first item?

Rather a Long Lived Family.

Some two years ago a physician III
Secretary Evarts' favorite Village of
Windsor, VT, was called to visit a pa
tient living some miles out Of the vil-
lage. He drove out, and as he was
hitching his horse the door opened, and
a young woman with a child in her
arms came out. They greeted each
other, and she said, ooh, you are the
doctor, come to see grandmother She's
pretty sick. You'll find her in the
house" He went in and found wo-
man about forty, who said, ooh, you
are the doctor. You'll find grand
mother in that way" In the room to
which he was directed he found an aged,
white-haired lady lying on the bed,
with her face the other way. She was
quite deaf, and did not notice his ap-
prOach until he sat down and began to
feel her pulse. She turned and said,
ooh, you are the doctor. Pm not sick.
It is mother you want to see. You will
find her in that ROOM" So into the
next room he passed, and at last he was
in the presence of his patient, whose
daughter, granddaughter, greaU-grand-
daughter and Observation-Disclosures
ter he had encountered. He found her
so reduced by disease and old age (she
was ninety-nine) that he saw no chance
of her living more than a week. He
told the family so, but at their request
left medicines and directions. Some
three weeks after he was driving by and
saw a woman picking up chips He
pulled up his horse, Intending to ask
when his patient had died, when she
hooked up and said. ooh, you are the
doctor who came to see me when I was
sick" She is still living, as " clipper"

FROM study of the action of tea
Mr., w. J. Morton has arrived at these
conclusions: As with any other drug,
there is a proper and an improper use
of it. In moderation it is a mild and
pleasant stimulant, followed by no harm
full reaction. It's continued and immod
crate use leads to very serious gronp
of symptoms, such as headache, vertigo,
ringing in the ears, tremulousness, nerv-
business exhaustion of mind and body
with disinclination to mental and physi
cal exertion, increased and irregular ac-
tion of the heart, and dyspepsia. Many of
the symptoms of immoderate tea-drink-
ing are such as may occur without a sus-
pIcIon of the real cause.

Freak of a Judges Wife.
[Meadville ga Reporter. ]

Social circles in Cleveland havs been
considerably stirred up within a day or
two past, by the announcement that the
wife of Judge r. f. Paine had left him
to go on the variety stage. Judge
Paine was nearly 60 years old when,
five years ago, he married his wife, who
was quite young wOman-not over %.
Her name was Humphrey, and she had
played on the stage il minor parts
through Michigan prior to coming to
Cleveland. She was also well known as
a reader in this city. She found en-
plOyment as g copyist in the Court
House, where the Judge, who was on
the bench, met and married her, she be-
ing his second wife. Their married life
was supposed to be happy, and, as she
was surrounded with everything that
money could buy, there was seemingly
nothing to tempt her to leave her home.
The truism, that any one who pos
sesses histrionic talent is miserable
when not exercising it, seems to have
been exemplifed in the case Of Mrs.
Paine For three years she has been
secretly studying for the stage, and a
few days ago, after receiving a consider
able sum Of money from the Judge, she
departed for st. Louis, and it is re-
ported, has made an engagement at a
variety theater. It is said that she was
accompanied by her husbands son, who
recently married a sister of G6nsvieve
Ward, the actress, and that all three
are now together in St. Louis. Mrs.
Paine is woman of rather fine appear
ance, possessing q good figure and a
pleasing face. Her histrionic talent bss
always been admired in those circles
which she occasionally favored with
readings. Her desertion is said to. be a
severe trial 10 the Judge, who was an
indulgent husband and allowed his wife
every privilege,

A CHICAGO man has perfected a ma
chine for making from water gas Of
highly Illuminating power. By it he is
said to be able to disintegrate water, and
bring its component parts together again
and produce light, heat, or steam, as he
chooses. The light obtained is a beauti-
full and very brilliant flame, and can be
perfectly controlled. Its heat is of the
most intense character, By the turn of
a valve he can transform the light into
steam, Theproeess by-whieh this is ac-
complished is a secret. The discoverer
admits that he generates a tremendous
explosive power-a power as great as that
claimed for the Keely motor, but he
utilizes it at once in the manner men
toned.

RUTH.


All, her face is very fair,
Snowy white and rosy red;
And the glorious golden hair
HoveIs mist-like round her head.
And her voice is soft and low.
Clear as music, and as sweet;
Hearing it, you hardly know
Where the sound and silence meet,
All the magic, who can tell,
OF her laughter and her sighs:
Or what heavenly meanings dwell
In her kind, conhding eyes.
Pretty lips. as rubies bright,
Scarcely hide the tiny pearlsy
little wandering stars of light
Love TO nestle in her curls.
All her ways are winning ways,
Full of tenderness and grace;
And witching sweetness plays
Fondly Ger her gentle face.
True and pure her soul within
Breathing Gods serener air,
Evil, and the shame Of sin
Cannot dwell 2 moment there,

place to the look of hunted terror in her
violet eyes, and a smile of infinite peace

fondly, and perhaps she guesses why I
kiss her face with such passionate ten
derness, for she shudders and nestles

my breats, and her mind straying back
to the tragedy of the pest, that is dead.

THE LoSDoS TIMES, in an articl
treating of the recent marked revival of
trade in the United States and the drain
of gold from Europe that attended it
makes some very interesting assertions
about the future value of gold which
are not without bearing on the money
question in this country. 1t says:
The annual gold production of the
United States themselves, about six mil
lions sterling, should also be sufficient
on the average for very considerable de-
mands But making all allowances, the
United States current requirements for
bullion must henceforth at all times af-
feet our money market greatly, even if
they 60 no further than the absorption
in America itself of its annual gold pro
duction. We must be prepared, then,
in the next year or two, especially if
Germany should adhere to its gold stand
ard, for much higher rates for money on
the average than those which prevailed
during the last period of good trade.
The extraordinary demands for gold on
German account were certainly very
heavy; but they came upon full mar
kets, while the annual supply from the
mines was greater by several millions a
year than it is now, and neither Ger
many nor the United States were then
gold using countries. There may be
some compensation for all this strain
upon gold in France being obliged to
part with its stock of that metal, under
the influence Of what remains of its BIZ 4
metallic law; but we doubt if it would
be prudent to rely upon France permit
ting this, while the strain would be seri-
ously increased, Of course, by any special
effort on the part of France to recover
the stock of gold it has lost. The chances
seem all to be, then, that gold in the
next few years will be IN scarce supply
for all the current demands upon it, and
that money viii consequently be dear
in countries which use gold for their
standard. Trade may be very good, of
course, with dear money, as it was in
1864 and 1865; but the conditions in its
favor viii not be quite the same as when

The Rhymer's tower still partly hangs
together, and the recent verilcation of

partly, perhaps, by virtue ofthe predic-
ton itself, has furnished up the fame of
the ancient wizard passing WELL at least
in the minds of the natives. But over
