A KING OF SWEDEN AS A BOOTBLACK.-
Speaking of Bernadotte, this reminds
me of an incident in the life of the
founder of the present dynasty. Taken
prisoner, when still in a private, at the
capture of Pondichery, he found him.
self among batch of some 200 or 500
prisoners, and suffering more or less
from fever and dysentery. General Won
W in passing through their camp,
noticed the intelligent face Of the young
soldier, and, taking an interest in the
youthful prisoner, he took him into his
house as an extra orderly, and for several
months Bernadotte performed the hum
BILE Office of brosseaw; however, homesick,
he begged to be included in exchange Of
prisoners, and he left for France.
Years after General Won W was in
command of small German fortress be-
sieged by the French; after heroic re-
sistance they had to capitulate. One
may Imagine his surprise when, on de-
livering his sword to the Prince of Pqnte
Corvo, the French Marshal threw Kim
self in his arms, exclaiming: "Hoas ne
reconn0isses done pas uotre JENNIE brosseur!"
Later on when called to the throne of
Sweden, the King invited General Won
W repeatedly to his capital, and
never failed to relate that he (the King)
had once been cleaning the boots of his
gallant guest.

WELL PAID PREAcHERs.-This mention
of church matters reminds me of the
handsome addition lately made to DR..
Halls salary. Next to Mr.. Beecher, DR..
Hall is the best paid preacher in America.
He came to New York ten years ago
under contract to receive $4,000 a year in
gold. The amount is now increased to
$4,000. But this is not all. DIR. Hall also
gets fine house; rent free. This house
is worth at least $3 900 year, SO the Doc
tors salary is really $4,000. Mr.. Beecher
is paid $4,000, but gets nothing more. He
lives in his own house which carries
pretty heavy mortgage, and pays all his
own expenses. Next to DR.. Hall, the best
paid pas tor is DIR. Potter, of Grace Church,
who receives a salary of $4,000 and
house to live in besides. The house ad-
joins the church and seems to be part OF
it, but is, in fact, entirely distinct. DIR.
Dix, of Trinity, who has lately received
SO much troublesome attention by postal
card from Gentleman Jo." is also paid
salary of $4,000, but whether his house
rent is paid in addition or not, l cannot
say. The pastor of st. Thomas Church
receives $4,000, and there are few other
pastors, 1 belive, who get from $S, 200 to
$4,000. But the minister who gets above
$4,000 is lucky man. The number of
such ministers is small, and constitutes
scarcely corporal's guard besides those
who are paid from $1,000 to $1,000.
could name half dozen talented preach
ers whose combined salaries do not reach
the total including house rent, now paid
to DIR. Hall.-lH Hartford Times.

SPONGE UNDERcLoTaING-AB Berlin in
ventor has patented new kind of cloth,
which consists principally or entirely of
beaten with heavy hammer, in order to
crush all the mineral and vegetable inn
purities SO that they can be easily washed
out. They are then dried and pared, like
a potato, with sharp knife, the parings
being sewed together. The fabric thus
obtained is free from all the danger which
sometimes arises from the absorption of
poisonous dyes into the system; it absorbs
without checking the perspiration, so as
to diminish the danger of taking cold: it is
a bad conductor, and, therefore, helps to
maintain uniform surface temperature:
1t can be more readily cleansed than the
ordinary woolen garments, and its fexi-
bility diminishes the liability of chatting.

Prince Bismarck's autographs are said
to be bone of contention among col
lectors. They are exceedingly rare and
are becoming rarer still, the Prince hav-
ing of late put his signature to anything
but official documents almost as seldom
as he has appeared in public. At one
time his autograph could be obtained by
sending him birthday present; but
since Berlin shopkeeper availed him
self of the occasion to express his most
distinguished consideration with barrel
of beer, and exhibited the autograph
letter of thanks in his establishment,
even this method of collecting auto
graphs is in the Chancellor's case no
longer of service.

The Reliable Man.

The reliable man is always there when
he is wanted. You do not have to send
to twenty different places after him; if
he is not at home, his wife can tell you
where he is. The reliable man always
tells his mission to his wife.
He is not fool enough to marry a wo-
man he cannot trust.
He is not much. of talker, but he
thinks great deal. He looks at sub
ject in all its bearings. His judgments
are unbiased. If he should be elected
Governor, he will carry State affairs with
just and firm hand.
In private life, he will always have
plenty of kindling-wood ready in the
morning. No running round in the cold
for him. before he has made his toilet.
when they don't deserve it. He can
bear allusion to a religious or political
belief, which does not accord with his
own, without going into tantrums.
He can give advice, and keep his tenn
per if it is not taken and followed.
He knows there are people in the world
beside himself. He believes that this
planet will continue to be run with
moderate degree of success after he shall
sleep with his fathers.
He never tells what he would have
done s'if he had only been there"
If ne makes you promise, you know
he will keep it, unless he dies before the
time for it's redemption. If he states
fact for fact, you know that you can
credit the statement. If he sells you
horse, and warrants him ''sound," you
need not look for SPAWN or ringbone,
after the first days hard driving.
His word is as good as his bond. He
is honest; you can trust him to do as he
agrees. You need not watch him, he
will do just as well without it. He has
respect unto himself and would be
ashamed to have his own soul convict
him of dishonesty.
If you are in trouble, you know you
can expect help from him. If you are
s'down in the world, he will stand by
you. If other friends have forsaken you,
he will uphold and support you.
In society, the reliable man is worth
his weight in gold. In the church he is
invaluable; he will pass the contribution
box, when the wardens are laid up with
bad colds; he will take care of the min
ister's house when he goes away for
days pleasuring; he will help the ladies
put down the new vestry carpet, and he
ready to stir the oyster stew, or tend the
elevator from the kitchen, when the So
ciety have an cold folks supper"
ALI the girls like him, and all the boys
respect him, and his wife is proud of
him, and lays great emphasis on what
"my husband" says-for she knows he is
reliable. And we devoutly wish there
were more like him. Kate Thorn, in N.

Two years ago. e. N. Bates, Republi-
can politician, headed the Greenback
movement In Illinois, Ii was then charged
that Bates was a mere tender to the Re
publican machine, and that Republican
money paid his campaign expenses to
keep the third party ticket ia the field,
that the State nigh. fall into the hands of
the Republicans once more. This could
only be done by running the third ticket
and keeping disguised Republicans from
going in body over into the Democratic
party. So, Bates. who had been twice
elected State Treasurer on the Republican
ticket. got control of the Greenback party.
and was run as it's nominee for treasurer,
getting some $4,000 votes, and drawing
enough from the Democrats to again let
the Republicans elect their State ticket,
and secure a majority in the Legislature,
thereby electing that prince of dema
gogues, John A. Logan. to the United
States Senate Those Republicans and
Democrats who followed Bates, instead of
voting the straight Democratic ticket, and
thus beating the Republicans. will perhaps
be surprised to learn that Bates is now
shouting for hard money. and is one of the
fercest and most uncompromising strikers
for Blaine and his gold theories. Those
voters who expect to secure reform by
change of parties. must see this: they can
never do it by going into the third party
move. which is but tender to the Repub-
lican machine. You may as we'll walk up
straight to the work, gentlemen, and vote

A WONDERFUL MEDICINE


Certificate of a Prominent Citizen
of Adrian, Mich, who had not
Walked without Clutches fol-
twOyears. He threw them away
i'm "a Hours after the first APP
pIicatiOn of Wizard Oil.
DR.. HAML1N:-When I met your agent
here, in September, had been two years suf-
fering severely with Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at a time to nv bed. The balance of the
time was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. I used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine, all OF
which proved worse than useless. Asto what
I suffered, the English language cannot tell
it to any one who has not tried its realities.
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled my
doubts in twenty -four hours. used bottle
day for ten days The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time in two years.
Since thenT have not used them, and can now
split cord of wood as quick as any man in

such a sudden cure would kill me, but wanted
