He Outprayed En-.

AT Atchison. Kas., the women crusa-
ders visited liquor-saloon, and tried by
praving to induce the proprietor OF the
saloon 10 close his place. The proprietor
invited the ladies to seats, and asked
them to pray, and then offered himself
the following prayer:

not love wine, woman and song, remains

great men upon this earth have been

children upon this earth. Oh Lord! we

Are Your Closets Ventilated ,

There is nothing so handy in a house
as an abundance Of large, roomy closets;
but because they are handy and extreme
ly useful they are apt to be abused.
There aremany things which, as a mat
ter of course, are always put into closet,
of which the articles of outward wearing
apparel make large part There are
always things which ought not to go
into the closet, I. C., q closet adjoining or
closely connected with living or sleep
ing room. OF such are all soiled under
garments, the wash clothes, which
should be put into large bag for the
purpose, or roOmy basket, and then
placed in the wash-room or some other
well-aired room at some distance from
the family. Having thus excluded one
of the fertile sources of bad oders IN
closets, the next point is to see that the
closets are properly ventilated. 1t mat
tiers not how clean the clothing III the
closet may he. Amy garment after be

less of the exhalations which arise from
the body, and thus contain an amount of

which free circulation of pure air can

in many close closets, the etiiuvia in

Joining rooms III time possess an odOr

which the night clothes are hung by day
and the day clothing by night, should

the closet can be large enough to admit
Of a window-and 1t is in some cases
an ample provision for sunlight and the
circulation of pure air Is provided in the
window, which should be left open for a
short time each day. In the case of
small closets "a yentilator could be put
over the door or even in it. In many
cases such precautions for pure clothing
are not practicable, and the next-best
thing IS. TO see that the door of the
closet Is left open for half hour or SC
each day at that time when the windows
are thrown up and the large room is
purified with fresh air from out of doors
in this way, first, by keeping out clothes
intended for the wash, and second, daily
changing of the air, the closets may be
kept comparatively pure.

Why Lincoln Appointed Him.

The Rev. James Shrigley, who Is well
known here, was appointed by President
Lincoln hospital chaplain during the
war Pending his confirmation by the
United States. a self-conshtuted commit
tee of the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation called on the President to protest
against the appointment After Mr.
Shrigley's name had been mentioned, the
President said:
sOh. YES, ] have sent it to the Senate.
His testimonials are highly satisfactory.
and the appointment will no doubt be
confirmed ct an early day.
The young man replied: but, sir, we
have come not to ask for the appointment,
but to solicit You to withdraw the nomi-
nation, on the ground that Mr.. Shrigley
is not evangelical in his sentiments. ="
''Ah!' said the President, that alters
the case. On what point Of doctrine is
/ the gentleman unsound?"
HE does not believe in endless pun
ishment, was the reply.

| tee, che believes that even the rebels

viii never do to have a man with such

The President hesitated to reply for a
moment, and then responded with an
emphasis they viii long remember; sIf
that be so, gentlemen, and there be any
way under heaven whereby the rebels
can be saved, then, for Gods sake. let
the gentleman be appointed"
He was appointed. pa.

The Lobster.

When lobster shakes hands with you
you always know when he takes hold.
and are exceedingly pleased when it gets
done. They have small features, and lay
no claim to good looks. When they To-
comote they resemble small boy shut
fling off in his fathers boots. They are
backward, very. They. even go ahead
backward. They occasionally have a
row like people, and in the melee lose q
member, but have the faculty of growing
ont another The process is patented
both In this country and Europe, which
accounts for not coming into general use
with the human lobster so to speak.
y lobster never comes on shore unless
he Is carried by force. They are af-
flicted with but one disease, and that Is
boils. There is more real excitement In
harpooning n whale or in having the
measles than there is in catching Holsters.
The fisherman provides a small hen-coop,
and places in it for enticers, several dead
fish. He then rows his boat TO the lob
ster ground (which is water) and sinks
his coop to the bottom, and anchors 1t to
a small buoy Zone from eight to ter
years will do and then goes home
When he feels like it again-say III the
course of a week or so-he goes back ano
pulls his poultry-house, and If he has
good success he will find the game inside
the coop.
As an article Of food the real goodness
of the lobster Is in the pith. Very few
persons relish the skin, and physicians
say it Is hard to digest We therefore
take the lobster and boil 1t until 1t Is
ready to eat Nothing Is better for collie
