instances, a great mistake; yet it is a
mistake for which the merchants them

great cities, like New York, St. Louis

to advertise, to call the attention of

marry q. woman until I was assured that
she could prepare wholesome dinner.
Women must be taught they are destined
as a companion and belpmate to man,
and that their marriage duties do not
alone comprise changing dresses and
being free from care. When they are
taught such Wholesome sense there will be
more happy homes and many less divorce
lawyers. l omitted to say, in speaking
on health few moments ago, the debili.
tating effects of cold food. Cold food
should not be taken in any quantity when
it can be avoided. The climate of Amer
lea is so exhaustive that cooked provis.
ions allowed to stand few hours are al
most worthless. Again, when passed into
the stomach, 1t must be heated before
digestion can begin, and is anything but
healthy.
"Long dinners should also be abstaincd
from. A half hour is sufficient period
to sit at table, and the stomach should
not be yexed for two or three hours.
Provide variety of neutricious, nice,
substantial food; for instances, bread,
fish, meat, vegetables, water, milk, coffee
in moderation. Cook the whole cleanly
and thoroughly, and better men aud
women, both physically and morally,
and longer lived ones, will be the inevi-
table result"

have been heard from the young man
loa6ng on the street corner. Young
man with the cigar, you are smoking
away your capital. You from the dram
shop are drinking away yours, and de.
stroying your body at the same time, and
you upon the street corner are wasting
yours in idlcness, and forming bad habits.
Dimes make dollars. Time is money.
Don't wait for fortune to begin with.
If you had 100000 year, and spent it
all, you would be poor still. Our men
of power and influence did not start with
fortunes. You, too, can make your
mark if you will. But you must stop
spending your money for what you don't
need, and squandcring your time in idle
ness.

peratcly wounded and made q prisoner.
He was sent to Columbus, o., and, when
he recovered from his wounds, managed
to escape. He worked his way to the
Ohio river, and, one dark night, attemp.
ted to cross into Kentucky. He was dis
covered by some home guard, pursued
and again wounded. He managed to land
on the Kentucky side, however, and es.
capped in the darkness, dragging shat
tered leg through the thick bushes. He
hobbled along all that night, but grew
weak from the loss Of blood. He saw o
log cabin in the distance and neryed
hin,selfto reach it. The effort was sue
cessful, but he fell fainting across the
threshold. The family living there were
Union people, and the head Of the house
hold, Grimsey Webb, was in the body of
home guards that surrounded the escap.
ing rebel en- the river the night before.
They took him in, however, and nursed
him back to life. Grimsey Webb had a
daughter, Kate, who was constantly at
the bed of the wounded soldier. AS is
usual, under romantic circumstances, an
attachment sprang up between the two
which ripencd into love. When Tom
Lomsden was able to move Kate Webb
had promised to marry him. The Union
forces were in possession of the country,
and they gave the fugative the choice of
going back to prison or joining the Union
army. He elected to do the latter, en-
listed, received his bounty, bade his
sweetheart good.by, and was marched off
to the front. For gallanlry during the
latter days Of the Confederacy, where the
once grand army of Virginia fought the
superior forces of The enemy with the
desperation ofdespair, Tom Lomsden was
made n Sergeant in K company of the
1O2d Ohio, commanded by Col. Rout-
ledge, and after the surrender at Apo
mattox he was transferred to the Fifty
seventh Pennsylvania, and ordered to
Washington for garrison duty. His reg.
iment was mustered out of the service q
few days after meeting his father, and he
hastened back to Lewis county, KY, to
greet his sweetheart.
"We were not rich," said he, in con.
clusion, "but the President gave father a
thousand dollars and we bought the
place."
"Hc was the best friend 1 ever had !;
God bless him." said the old man softly /;
"and down to the day Of his death he
sent me regular every month twenty
dollars. I was in hopes to be able to vote
for him again for President, but the Lord
took him away. He sent me that picture
few weeks before he died. He was the
best friend I ever had, and I always
said he ould be great man some day"
1 had long ride before me, and was
forced, much against my will, to part with
this interesting family and continue my
journey. One Of the boys brought up
my horse, and the whole family came out
to the door to bid me goodbye. The
broad.shouldered son, as he shook hands
with me, impaired the confidential as
surance that he and his father were Dem
Ocrats.
"If we live till election day." he said,
"wcll put in two good Democratic votes

TO PICKLE BEEF.
The best method is undoubtedly that of
Col. James R. Skiles formerly of Bowl

used none but his, which is always in

take one gallon Of salt, one pound of su-
gar, one.quarter Of Il pound each of salt
peter and the best cayene pepper, pulver-
ize all and mix will together. Have a

bottom covered an inch deep with salt /;

across the grain in pieces two inches
thick. Willie one cuts let another sprin-
kle little of the moisture on both sur
aces of each piece, rubbing it in, and
another take the piece, rubbing in salt,
and pack in the barrel, closely covering
the layer of salt; cover this layer of
beef with salt; then layers of beef and
salt alternating till the barrel is nearly
full. Put clean head on the upper lay
er and stones or other weights on top to
keep the meat under, for by the time all
is completed the beef will be covered with
brine, and in few days you will have
the best picked beef ever made, even
though packed in the hottest weather.
1t will keep indefinitely. We now use
some picked over 4 year, as we'll as other
picked but six week ago. Soak piece
over night, and next morning you have
fresh steak. We have often seen per.
sons admire the superior fresh steak thus
prepared months before. This whole ar
ticle is a briefchapter from the experience
of one of our family, and many others to
to whom we have given the recipe. We
have been so often called on during the
current week. that We concluded to give
many more the benefit Of this superior
process through you columns. The
brine must never be changed; for, if
kept in a cool, sweet, clean place it
will remain sweet. Changing brine
extracts the nutritious juices and hardens
the tissue.

THE TRUTH PRECISELY.

Garfield's nomination means the en-
dorsement and approval in the most pos
tive aud offensive manner possible OF
the Presidential fraud of 1857. He
had more to do with II than any other
man, and was the only man who occu-
pied toward 1t double relation. After
the election Garfield went to New Or
leans by request of Gen. Grant, without
authority Of law, as partisan. He
went there TO assist his party in making
up a case, aud after his return to Wash
ington, OF all his associates he was the
only man who took his seat upon the
Electoral Commission. BY every senti-
ment OF fair play he should have been
excluded from the jury box BY his
own sworn statement of what he did in
New Orleans, Garfield had charge of the
returns from West Feliciana Parish. ln
one of the inner rooms OF Packard's Gus
tom House be did his work, examined
the afidavits, and when they were not
Sufficiently full, he prepared or had pre-
pared additional interrogatories to bring
them within the rules adopted by the
Returning Board. The testimony, so
received by Garfield, went back to the
Returning Board, and the result was
that West Feliciana with its Democratic
majority was thown out, In Washing
ton Garfeld's vote was that Congress
c,uld not go behind the returns thus
made. As agent for his party he helped
to make returns by manipulating the
evidence and as juryman for the nation
he held such evidence as conclusive and
binding. r..

ployees, and he notified Deputy

light brown hair, small moustache and
about two weeks growth Of beard. The
cl, thing consisted OF dray, roughly
