LIT. Stephen, Esq, who had charge

tracts, and can be trusted in any capaci-
ty.
The people of the west owe a debt of
gratitude to DIR. Aver for the production
of Ayers Ague Cure. Its timely use will
save much suffering and much discour-
agement, and we recommend it with the
greatest confidence in its ability to do all
that is promised for it.

ANY of our friends contemplating a
trip over the plains Of Kansas, Colorado
and New Mexico, we would advise them
to appoint III friends A. v. Auter and
Jacob Smith, of Topeka, as Commissia-

in the business, and know to a T the out
fit necessary for the journey.
Everybody is at work now except the
professional l~oafers, and they must GER
tainly feel ashamed to be seen lounging
about the streets when the demand for
laborers is so general. Pull off your
coats and go to work, every mother son
of you, and you will feel better while en-
gagged in earning an honest living.

acquired a competence to desire removal
to the town, where he imagines he can
have luxurieSh he has in vain desired all
his life, and for the townsman to long for
green fields and broad acres, to which he

the city, and live at ease, under his vine
and under his W cherry tree.

The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
road is certainly fortunate in having in
its service two such clever gentlemen as
M. F. WHITE, Esq, a Gen. Pass. and
Ticket Agent, and H. B. KEsLER, ESQ.,,
who attends to the business in the alb
sence of Mr.. White, at Topeka. They
are sociable, plain and unassuning, rare
qualities found in persons filling their
positions. The road cannot help but be
popular under such officers.
When the excellence of rice as a diet
is fully understood its use will be more
frequent and of daily occurrence in every
household. At this season of the year
especially, it may properly be classed as
superior to any of the cereals which are
in such general use for the morning and
midday meals. No other food is SO easy
of digestion, and at its present cost it is
cheaper than potatoes, oat meal or grain
grits of any kind.

Next September twenty-five cadet engi
neers for service in the navy will be apr
pointed, by competitive examination
held at Annapolis, and any American
boy between fifteen and twenty years O
age has a right to contest for one of the
cadetships. No candidate should pre-
sent himself at Annapolis, however, un.
less he is well versed in elementary Eng
hoh StaL1ildiJ geography

raj philosophy. The successful candi
dates rank with the cadet midshipme1
and their pay is the same, 5000 a year
Having thought very seriously over the
matter and decided to become a candi
date, a boy should write to the Secretar,
of the Navy for a pamphlet of particular,
and then he should spend the summer i,
earnest study of the necessary branches
$4,000 to loan. Also desirable farm
and town property for sale.
