Drug Store CuriOsities.

A man recently stepped into a drug
store and said to the clerk, with the con-
fident air of one who knew exactly what
be wanted:
49, Got any roach powder p =
FOB, yes," was the bland reply.
The apothecary threw open . glass
Ecsse, and Immediately placed upon the
counter in front of his customer bot
tie Of "Sure Death to Cockroaches."
Tell me how it works?"
Certainly! You take pinch of the
powder between thumb and finger, hold
it down near the crevice, and give it q
puf-so. It'll be sure tokil lem.n
''Kill 'em! Heavens! The powders
for my old woman: Kill 'eml Not
head.
Inquiry developed the fact that it was
Rochelle, not roach powder, that had
been recommended for the old wo-
man." and the correct article was soon
supplied.
/ IA reporter, hearing of this adventure,
asked the druggist II many such cases,
resulting from ignorance or carelessness,
came under bis notice?
"They occur almost daily" was the
reply, "and are not only confusing, but
superlatively ridiculous. c What could
you say to this. for instance?" Here
were displayed number of the orders
that had been received from various
customers, among them the following:
-" Pleas Civ the barer 5 sents worth OF

of these has been somewhat improved
and the punctuation attended to. Tn.

A Spoiled Sermon.
Portland (Me.) Transcript

4
The church at Walnut Hill has for
some time been without a pastor.
Candidates have at various times pre-
scented themselves, but up to date none
have seemed to fill the bill. Old hands
say that one of the hardest things in life
ia toAettle q minister who will please
everybody in the congregation. On
Sunday last at the church in question a
new candidate presented himself, and /,
as the occasion had been anticipated, /,
and the day was fine, full congregation
was present. The services opened in
the usual form. The invocation singing,
reading, and prayer Followed each in
course and the text was given out. The
subject was Prayer.9 The theme, is q
fruitful one and the candidate thSew
his whole soul into the discourse. AT
last, while illustrating the need and
efficacy of prayer, he drew an illustra-
ton from his own experience. He was
out on the lake in a boat when by q
mischance he lost both oars. The wind
was rising, night was coming on. and
he was in imminent danger of being
swamped and finding watery grave.
What could he do? Evidently nothing
of himself, SC he kneeled down and
prayed long and fervently for deliver,
ance. He placed himself in the hands
of the Lord and so was saved. ,.tszxn
So he passe from one thing to an
other, aud at last the sermon was
| finished. He raised his hands to pro
nounce the bene6iction. The audience
stood with bowed heads waiting for the
| gracious words, when old Captain
1SHeetsir, Of North Yarmouth, rugged
Eold see-s dog,-criedf out, Says Mr.
Preacher, want you2to tellmehew you
got ashoreP
= The audience was still no more. hu'
broke intoa roar, and it was fully five
minutes before the minister could ex
plain that a man saw him from tn,
shore and put out in another boat ane
took him off. But the effect for gooc
of one sermon was spoiled.

The Digging Up of Troy Completed.

z We have received a letter from the
famous arch@ologist, Sehliemann, dated
at Athens. We print this extract: 80
81 have just returned from Asia
Minor, where have at last finished that
digging out Of Troy which, I began in
1870 During ten years I have. strug-
gled with great difficulties, among
which perhaps the mosts1 troublesome
has. been the large amount of debris
under which the ancient cityn,was
hurried. 1t has been necessary to dig
down and dig up the ground for more
than sixteen yards below the surface.
But l am fully rect mpensed for all my
trouble. I found the remains of seven
different ancient cities; the last of
which was the Iion of Homer That
city was built by the Eolians, banished
from Greece by the Dorians in the
Seventeenth century, before our new
era. In one of the buried cities I found
many Of the statues of Minerva. with
the owls head, whence her name of
Glsucopis In another city was found
many images of the divinities. But
the most interesting and important of
all the discoveries is, of course, thecity

taxable signs of having been destroyed
by fire and in time Of war. There are
discovered many remains of human
bodies in full armor. dug out and
cleared away the debris from the, entire
wall that surrounded the city, and also
from the principal buildings. Now /

WHILE repairing postal car at the
Michigan Central Railroad car shops In
Detroit, day or two ago, Superinten-
dent Miller found two letters in the

THE greatest merit of q great many
people is that they do as other people
do. Such persons cannot tolerate any
departure from established modes OF
action. They move round and round in
a circle, and because they keep moving
as it is somewhere observed, they fancy
they are making progress; and they are
never reminded of their error, even
when they discover, after much motion,
that they are but short distance from
their starting point Now, in despite OF
this GLASS, it may be laid down as ., rule
that where. there Is great amount OF
Character there will be q great amount
of misunderstood action, which is COM
monty called eccentricity,, and usually
most uniustly translated to omean-folly.
1t is no doubt we'll to do common things
in a.common way,a but this, is distinct
from servile adoption OF the principle
Of imitation in every ything; and no man
of intellect, much less man of pro-
gressive energies, will submit to walk
only in the footpaths made by the many.
1t is one of the conditions upon which
its efficiency or the success or failure OF
its efforts depends that the mind shall
act with freedom and be permitted to
cast off when necessary the restraint OF
rules founded merely. ON custom and
having no basis in right.
