He Forgot the Bullet.

It is but seldom that the comic
element enters into attempts at
suicide. A diverting exception
to the general rule is afforded
by the suicidal enterprise of a
Hungarian engineer, resident at
Temesyar, who, being a stead
fast votary Of Bacchus. had
drunk himself into so unsatisfac-
tory a state of mind that, a few
days ago. he determined to put
an end to his existence. Having
provided himself with a pis-
toll, and locked himself up in a
private room of a hotel in the
town, which apartment he had
specially hired for the purpose,
he pressed the muzzle of the
weapon against his left breast
and pulled the trigger. The
usual explosion followed, and
the wonld-be suicide fell to the
ground, whore he lay patiently
for several minutes, waiting for
death. Dissolution, however
failing to set in as promptly as
he had expected, he presently
arose, left the hotel and walked
home, with a view to dying COM
fortably in his own apartment,
A little later on, perplexed by bis
unaccountable vitality, he sent
for a surgeon to examine the
wound. Beyond slight scorch-
ing Of the skin no injury could
DO detected; and, while the sur
geon was yainly searching for a

A WEDDING INTERRUPTED.

An exchange publishes the fol-
lowing story
"Tbere was o strange scene at
Cincinnati one day last week. A
respectable and intelligent young
lady was engaged to be married,
and made the discovery that her
afianced was in the habit OF
drinking, and told bin what she
had learned. He promised never
10 drink again, and she forgaye
him. The wedding day was sub.
sequently set, and all went we'll
untilthe morning appointed for
the performance Of the cere-
mony. ,..s ,.. /
During the interval, he made
his usual visits, and, though he
drank at times, his betrothed
never learned of his faithless-
ness until it was nearly too late
to punish him for it,
They were standing side by
side, and a moment more would
have found them man and wife,
when he turned toward her, and
his telltale breath spoke Of whis-
ky. When the minister pro-
pounded the usual question to
her the response came iaintly !:
"No!" In surprise the question
was again asked, and this time
the response was clear and deci-
sivei: ,"No!" She then TUNED
to hor lover, accused him of
drinking, reminded him of his
promise to her, and said that a
man who would break promise
SO solemnly made could not be
relied upon, and she feared to
trust, her future toz such a man.
Expostulations and entreaties
were all in vain, and that little
Yes" still remains unsaia.

DEAR SIR:-The Southern Standard
Press. which you put up for me, has
given perfect satisfaction. During the
months of December and January last /
packed 259 bales cotto1-averaging in
weight 500 pounds. I used an ordinary
SIG cotton rope which, at the close of
the season, was sufficiently strong to be
used for pillow lines. 1t possesses many
advantages over any other press otiwhich
| have any knowledge. Its cheapness
and durability should recommend it to
every one. I regard the Southern
Standard cheaper at 500 than the
Brooks or Reynolds or any press OF like
make at $50. Yours trull ", =

This is to certify that we had one of the
Southern Standard Presses built last
January. We had only about forty bales
of cotton packed on it, and must say
that we are better pleased with it than
press we ever used, and we have been
using presses for over thirty years.
They are cheaper and handler than any
press we ever saw, and if put up by B.
Y. Mcdonald, we are confident they
will please most any one.

Beauty home. It is your
heaven here below, if you would

flowers; they will prove a never
ending source Of pleasures to
your wife and daughters. IN fact
to the whole family. The infu-
ence of flowers is that of cult
walton and refinement. By the
aid of trees, flowers, vines and
green grass plots, the humb!est,
most unprepossessingihome may
be beautifed and made to wear
a modest cheerfalness.
Copperas water is one OF the
best applications that can be

season OF the year, or any other
time when modification might
take place. / don't care how
bad it looks or smells, it will
clean it out in twenty-four hours.

its use. I also have a horse
that cut his foot very badly with
barbed wire. It got so bad [

the next day it looked healthy
and all right. The water should
be made pretty strong with cop

1t is encouraging to note the
fact that the area Of cultivated
land inrthe Gulf States is rapidly.
increasing each year. Not only
is the cotton area enlarged, but
it is also true Of corn, sugar, po-
tatoes, wheat, oats, etc. Grass
for pasture and hay is taking up
more land each year, aud greater
attention given to increase the
focks and herds of live stock
everywhere. Old fields that have
lain out for years, some Of them
ever since the war, are being
fenced, and the native grass pas
tured by sheep anG cattle. We
say all this is encouraging to the
South, and forecasts a greater
prosperity for the South than
she ever enjoyed Livestock
Journal.
If taken internally with food
sulphur will almost invariably
keep all kinds of animals free
from lice. We have made a
practice for years past of giving
q heaping teaspoonful once a
week in the feed OF each of our
COWS, and the same quantity to
about every ten hens in our
flock, and they have never been
troubled with lice in them. It
may be given in the same pro-
portion as to size when required
in the food Of poultry, pigs and
sheep. Sulphur is a mild ca
thartic when desired for this
purpose, and in small doses
seems to have a general bene-
fcial effect on the animal sys-
tenn, something like salt, though,
OF course, not Of that nature

but few offers. Shippers are evidently dis
posed to operate with the utmost caution

harvest is more clearly defined. At present
the few transactions here are upon basis Of

ceipts are confined to small parcels from up
the Columbia, this valley not yet having for

CLOSING PUBLIC HOUSES IN ENGLAND
Sir r. Cross, NJ P, said recently that he
was sure that there was no one in the
House of Commons who did not wish to do
all that he could to promote the cause of
temperance, having regard to all the misery
and crime which were but too frequently
the result of drunkenness. While 1T was

closing public houses on Sunday, he did
not think that there was a member who
would not be glad to see it gratified. Many
places wished public houses to be closed on
Sunday and many places did not ; but there
was a strona fealipo in the country that
something should be done.
