Editor ErentRg star "A friend has lust shown

that had been invited to canvass for the re.

Garfeld and Arthur and for Judge Critcher for
Congress, and that it was expected 1 would

party or candidate. | have for seven years
urged the establishment of the readluSters

the future hopes OF the state OF my adoption
are wrapped up in the success of its principles.
II involves tie honest treatment Of our cred

Hareock to Garfield: | should as soon

adjusters and republicans In the first district
ought to have acted In concert, and exerted
myself in that direction, but majority OF both
republicans and readjusters chose to act for
themselves, and the result in November must
determine their wisdom or their folly. In 1878
canyassed the first district as republican-re-
adjuster, carried seven counties out of sixteen
In triangular fight, and should have been
elected had 1t not been for the officials OF an
administration that issued ''Civil Service Order

year circulated $1,000 documents at my own
expense, exposing the frauds OF the so-called
debt payers" and my opinions are so we'll
known that do not see what more can say
that have not said. SO long as the ''read just
ers" keep up their fight with the Bourbons, and
show no signs OF compromise, or fusion, or sur

But personal and private reasons will prevent
me from making any public canvass, and all

PolsOnous g. in Houses.

Typhus fever, diptheria, and other
fatal diseases, are often caused by sewer
gas which forces its way through the
Water-ClOset and open fixed basins into
the house: Another dangerous gas Is
that emanating from stoves.
Unless there is q free circulation and
an adequate supply of pure air in q bed
room occupied by one or more persons,
the volume of air enclosed becomes
very rapidly exhausted Of its Efe-pre-
serving properties, and prOpOr1Onately
charged with gases Of an opposite char
aCter.
The mere breathing of the air takes
from it the oxygen, and returns q vol
Ume Of carbOnic acid gas, which speedily
assumes an undue proportion to the
former, and renders the atmosphere aD-
sOlutely dangerous to life.
But there are other sources Of danger
| that too frequently fail to be recognized,
even by generally careful hOUsehOldeTs.
These are the pipes leading from water
| closets. sinks and fixed Wash-staud ba-
sins, to the house drain, and which
often serve as the inlets by which that
most deadly Of polsOns, sewer gas enters
| dwellings.

/ Thousands Of fatal cases Of disease

Watering Horses.

A work horse watered regularly three
times a day can safely be allowed 10
drink as much as he wishes, If the water
be GOOD and of moderate temperature
If the horse seems very thirsty and dis-
posed to drink rapidly and IN large
Quantity, it is well to check him after
drinking a little, allowing him to slack
his thirst by several separate draughl,s
rather than by one. a. horse much
heated should not be allowed to drink at
will.
When 1t can be done conveniently,
the comfort of the horses will be IN
creased by having water IN the held anu
giving them drink once or twice during
each half day in hot weather
Several farmers who have tried II
speak highly Of the plan of stirring a
little oat or corn meal in the water De
signed for work horses. 1t IS better 70
do this a few hours before the water Is

Words Of Wisdom.

Have a good conscience and thou shalt
have Joy.
The glory of a good man is the testi-
mony Of a good conscience.
He who can at all times sacrifice
pleasure to duty approaches subllmIty.
A good conscience is able to bear very
much, and is very cheerful IN adversely.
A mans own good breeding is the best
security against other peoples Ill man
ners.
Thank God! our troubles come like
rain, chiefly sideways; there Is always
shelter.
A bold fight against misfortune will
often enable a man to tide over tight
place and put ruin to flight.
Would we but profit by the expert
ence of others we should have the royal
road to the palace Of wisdom.
Philosophy triumphs easily enough
! over past and future evils, but present
evils triumph over philosophy.
We must not speak all that we know,
that were folly but what o man says
should be what he thinks, otherwise 1t IS
llnayery.
Faith dies when charity ceases to
feed its flame, and strength decays just
in proportion as cheerful hope fails to
quicken the energies Of the mind.
Life is disciplinary, and those who are
ground in the mill Of adversely make
/ better spiritual material than those who
are disciplined only by plenty and sue
cess.
If a man be gracious and courteous to
strangers, it shows that he Is cltlzen
of tbe world, aud that his heart IS no
island cut off from other hearts, but a
continent that joins them.
True Joy is q serene and sober emo,
ton. and they are miserably out Jhal
take laughing for rejoicing; the seat OF
/ # is within, and there is no cheerlulness
Like the resolution of Il brave mind.
It's a most important lesson, and toe
'rttie thought Of that we learn how tc
enjoy ordinary life, and TO be aDle u
relish our beng, without the tIalllal'ole
'of some passion, or the gratncaIloIl VI
some appetite.
