Borrowing.

Dear Girls, let me entreat you never
to form u habit of borrowing-bor
ing in season and out of season;
borrowing dresses and wraps, ribbons
and pins, scissors and thread, dimes
and pencils, until your friends will ex-
pect to hear you say, "Please. may l
borrow" each time you look into their
rooms. Lending is a real kindness,
and betokens an Obliging spirit; but
borrowing shows careless management
and n o proper regard for the rights of
others. To be sure, it is sometimes
necessary even with the best regulated
household, wardrobe or work box.
Still have a real regard for those who
will deny themselves pleasure or put
off time of enjoyment rather than
borrow, But of all things, neUer ask
the loan of clothing! Some persons are
SO sensitive that if they could afford it
they would rather throw away a gar
ment another had worn than appear in
it themselves. Although you may
think this foolish, you must bear in
mind that the garments belong to your
friend, and by asking to borrow them,
you force her TO choose between punish
ing herself with complying or offend
inc you with denial.
Perhaps the girl readers are not adj
dicted to this exasperating habit, and
do not need this talk. There is, how
ever. among my acquaintance maiden
who makes herself one of my greatest
trials. She asks for my scarf to wear
to the city, for my shawl when she
visits her aunt, for my hood when she
goes skating. One of my dresses fig
ured at her COUSINS wedding; one of
my neckties is seen in her photograph;
she protects her hands with my nit
tens, walks dry-shod in my rubbers,
and warns her fingers in my mutf. Yet
she is so helpful, and sociable, and ami
able, and returns so readily and neatly
each article borrowed, that l seldom
venture refusal, especially when
remember that her wardrobe is scantily
furnished. Still often take myself
severely to task for allowing a girl with
such excellent traits to pass into wom-
anhood with this disagreeable one. So,
full of the hope that she will see this
talk, send it on its mission, trusting it
will help some maiden to become a
more agreeable woman. -"Aunt OA-
Ca" IN Country GeitLemGH.

At the great Italian Industrial Exhibition
Just closing in Milan, Italy, the highest
awards for musical instruments, silver
medal and diploma, were taken by an Ameri-
can manufacturer, the Mason & Hamlin Or
gan Company, whose cabinet organs were
judged to be so superior that they were the
only reed organs OF any manufacture, Euro
pean or American, which were awarded a
medal. 1t is Il great honor to these makers
that in Italy itself, the very home of music,
their organs should receive such distinction.
They excited much interest among mu-
scans, and were by special order repeated
ly exhibited to the Royal Court by Carlo
Ducci, the distinguished artist of Rome

A Pants.Leg Savings Bank.

Jacob Anslinger, farmer living near
the cross roads in Armstrong township,
about ten miles from this city, had
81 900 stolen out of bureau drawer last
Tuesday while absent at church.
Twelve hundred dollars of the money
was in gold, silver and paper, and the
remainder in notes. This he kept in an
old pants leg, sewed at one end and
with kind of moose at the other. On
the day in question he had gone to
church alta early hour with his mother,
leaving no one at home. The key to the
drawer containing the valuable trousers
leg was left in the lock, and it is sup
posed during the absence of the two the
money was taken.
The robbery was not discovered till
the following Wednesday
Mrs. Anslinger went to the drawer to
get dollar. To her great surprise the
pants-leg was gone, and the favorite
corner which for years had had the
pleasure of having so much wealth rest
against it was as poorly off as the re-
mainder of the drawer. A thorough
search of the house failed to produce
any trace of the missing shekles, and
the grave fact that they had been rob-
bed presented Itself.
Mr.. Anslinger has not the least sus-
picion as to who the thief is. To the
J0lHRal'S informant he stated that very
few people knew that he had money in
the house, and that even those few had
never seen it. Last Saturday, however,
one of his intimate friends, a neighbor,
came to him and asked to have so
bill changed. Not having that much
money about his person, Anslinger had
recourse to the pants-leg, and of course
exposed his wealth. He thought moth
ing more about the matter until the rob-
berry, when it at once occurred to him.
The neighbor is still at home, how
ever, and is, in fact, above suspicion.
He thinks it probable, though, that his
neighbor mentioned to others the fact of
his having so much money, and it was
stolen by them.
Anslinger is about thirty-five years OF
age, is unmarried, and lived alone with
his mother. The stolen money was the
accumulation of years of constant toll,
and his grief at its loss is considerable

Solemn Autumn Thou rhts.


There can be nothing sadder than the
solemn hush of nature that precedes
the death of the year. The golden
glory of autumn, with the billOwy
bronzed and velvet azure of the skies
above the royal robes of oak and
maple bespeak the closing hours of
Natures teeming life and the silent
farewell to humanity's gauze under
wear.
Thus while Nature dons her regal
robes of scarlet and gold in honor of
the farewell benefit to autumn, the sad
eyed poet steals swiftly away to the
neighboring clothes line, and in the
hour of Natures grand blowout dons
the hannels of his friend out of respect
for the hectic flush of the diving year.
Leaves have their time to fall, and so
has the price of coal. And yet how
sadly at variance with decaying nature

Another glorious summer with its
wealth of pleasant memories is stored
away among the archives of our history.
Another gloomy winter is upon u.s.
These wonderful colors that flame
across the sky of Indian summer, like
the CORY banner of royal conquerOr,
come but to warn US that in a few short
weeks the water-pipe will be burst in
the kitchen ana the de 3orated wash
bowl will be broken.
We fit through the dreamy hours of
summer like swft-winged humble bees
amid the hOneysuckle and pumpkin
blossoms, storing away, perhaps, a
little glucose honey and buckwheat
pancakes for the future, but all at once,
like newspaper thief in the night, the
king of frost and ripe, mellow chill
bains is upon us, and we crouch be-
meath the wintry blast and hump our
spinal column up into the crisp air like
Texas steer that has thoughtlessly
swallowed raw cactus.
Lite is one continued round OF alter
nate JOYS and sorrows. To-day we are
on the top wave of prosperity and
warming ourselves in the glad sunlight
OF plenty, and tomorrow we are cast
down and depressed financially, and
have to stand off the washerwoman for
our clean shirt or stay at home from
the opera.
Oh, Time! thou bald-headed pelican
with the venerable corn cutter and the
secondhand hour-glass; thou playest
strange pranks upon the children OF
men. No one would think to look al
thy bilious countenance and store teetl
that in thy bony bosom lurked such &c
centric schemes.

misty twilight of the year, noiselessly
upon his breast shall fall the dead Leaf,
while the silent tear of the gray au

yellow grass above his head. Blu Nye'!

The oldest, and doubtless the rich
est, convict in the Ohio Penitentiarv, is
Horace Brooks, age seventy-four years,
whose long imprisonment is likely to be
soon terminated by large rose cancer
which has appeared upon his forehead.
He was received at the Penitentiary No
vember 10, 1850, under life sentence
for murder in the second degree, and
has, therefore, been in prison thirty-one
years. He owned farm in the suburbs
of Cleveland through which a railroad
passed; the cars ran over and killed
some of his sheep, and to avenge this in
jury Brooks INSTRUCTED the track, threw
off train, and killed five persons. He
was indicted for murder by the Grand
Jury of Cuyahoga County, tried in the
courts of that county, and sentenced to
the Penitentiary for life. At the time of
his conviction he was a wealthy man,
and the property he then owned has be-
come extremely valuable, having since
become part of the city of Cleveland.

Domingo Ramos died recently in
the hacienda of Apapasco, Mexico, at
the patriarchal age of 14S years. His
memory and general health were per-
feet to the last. AT 100 years of age he
had natural and complete renewal of
teeth. He had been twice married, and
his death was mainly caused by the grief
he experienced when his second wife
died, few months ago. His eldest son
is eighty years of age, and he leaves q
vast progeny of great-grandsons and
daughters to mourn his loss.

BIue-BlOOded Dogs.

Within the past half-dozen years
there has grown up among sporting
men and gentlemen of leisure a strange
fancy for imported or blue blooded set
ter dogs. There are many of the inn
proved species in the kennels OF Will
mington gentlemen. The majority of
the imported dogs came from the eX-
tensive kennels of Sir Percival Level
lin, member of the British peerage,
who had acquired fame and fortune by
devoting his attention exclusively to
the Improvement in the breed of set
ter dogs. The animals are brought d.
rectly to this country, generally to New
York, in some cases to Philadelphia,
and there purchased through agents by
sportsmen. The prices paid, in many
cases, are astonishingly large, ranging
in a few known instances as high
as $4,000 for single setter. One
thousand dollars, however, is cOnsid-
cred high figure, the latter sum, it is
said, having been paid by a gentleman
in this city for noble specimen OF
the bluest blood. The imported dogs
have many points of superiority over
the native animals, differing as much
from each other as the trained racer
from the country road horse. Blue
blood is strong and fleet of limb, has
long, fine hair, with atendency to creep
at the ends, well colored, whatever
that means, and is warranted to watch
his game, rain or shine, twice as long
as the native specimen. There are at
least half dozen imported settlers in
the possession of parties in this city,
each of which cost over $500. The best
known man in the United States in
this line is Rene Martin, the dog
trainer. Martin was formerly butch.
er, but the instinct born within him
was too strong, and he quickly drifted
into his natural sphere. AS trainer
of setter dogs, his charges, varying
from 500 TO 5000, are little extrava.
CANT, but the owner of the pup can rest
assured that when he graduates from
Martins careful and painstaking hands
he is accomplished in the highest de-
gree. Martins plan is simple. AS
soon as the cunning season opens he
takes his dogs to some secluded hunt
ing grounds i'll the South. There he
establishes himself and his pupils. Ev.
cry day he hunts, going out early in
the morning and returning only after
dark. At the end of the season his dogs
have completed their education. - Va
