Bellies" call a great many people

Some protesting Christians, it has
been said, are like wheelbarrow.
They will not go without being

The following isan excellent and
safe remedy for children's colds !:
Take onions, slice thin, and sprink-
lie loaf sugar thickly over them !;
put in an oven and simmer until
the juice is thoroughly mixed with
the sugar. 1t makes thick syrup,
very nice. Give teaspoonful as

DEATH FROM DRINKING LYE.-
Some days ago, little child of Mr..
II. H. Monks, about two years of
age got hold of a cup containing
concentrated I've, and drank of it.
AS soon as it was discovered, ply
stefan was summoned, and every
effort made to counteract the effects
of the lye, but without avail, and
the-little sufferer died on Monday.
Mountain Herald
In an obscure junk shop in Balti-
more there now lies rusting, the
iron PROV of the famous steamer
Merrimac, that destroyed frigates in
Hampton Roads during the rebel
lion and was a menace to commerce
and seaport cities of The Union until
worsted in the memorable conflict
with the Monitor. The prov, or
ram, weighs only about 1,40O
pounds and could doubtless be pur-
chased for few cents per pound.
How RAILROADS PAY.-Thc Co
lumbus and Hooking Valley Rail
road Company has been doing an
immense business during the past
year. Its surplus earnings for 1886
were over 100000, and it will be
greatly increased by the business
of the winter. 1t is thought by
some that dividend of 20 per cent
in addition to the 6 per cent one
will be declared. -McArthur CO..

TEMPERANCE IN TENNEssEE.-A
large number of bills were passed

the end of the session the charters OF
not less than two hundred towns
in the State will be abolished, that
what is known as the four-mile
temperance law may 60 into effect.
The law provides that no intoxicat-
ing liquor shall be sold within four
miles of any chartered educational
institution.

A STORY FOR sPELLERs.
"The most skillful gauger
ii ever knew was ma
ligned cobbler, armed with pom
lard, who drove a peddler's wagon,
using a mullenstalk as an instru-
ment of coercion to tyrannize over
his pony, shod with calks. He was
a Galilean Sadducee and he had a
phthisicky catarrh, diptheria, and
the bilious intermittent erysipelas.
A certain sibyl with the sobri-
quet of Gypsy" went into ecstacies
of cachinnation at seeing him meas
ure bushel Of peas, and separate
saccharine tomatoes from a heap of
peeled potatoes without dyeing or
singeing the ignitable cue which he
wore, or becoming paralyzed with a
hemorrhage. Lifting her eyes to
the ceiling of the cupola of the cap
itol to conceal her unparalleled en-
barassment, making a rough cour-
tesy, and not harrassing him with
mystifying, rarifying and stupefy-
ing innuendoes, she gave him a
cough, a boquet of lilies, migno-
nettes and fuchsias,, treatise on
mnemonics, and a copy of the Apoc-
rypha in hieroglyhpics, daguerreo-
types of Mendelshon and Koscius-
ko, Kaleidoscope drachm phial Of
ipecacuanha teaspoonful of naph-
tina, for deleble purposes, a ferrule, a
clarionet, some licorice, a surcingle,
cornelian of symmetrical proper
tions, crhonometer with a nova
BILE balance wheel, box of dominos,
and catechism. The gauger who,
was also trafficking rectifer anda
parishioner of mine, preferring a
wooden surtout' this choice was re-
ferrable to "a vacillating, occasional
ly-occurring idiosyncracy), wofully
uttered this apothegm: "Life is
checkered,, but schism, apostasy,
heresy, and villainy shall be pun
ished." The Sibyl apologizingly
answered: "There is notably an al
legeable difference between a con-
ferrable ellipsis and trisyllabic
diaresis." We replied in trochees,
not impugning her suspicion.

Ia All n Joke.

One of the jokes Of yestarday was the
assumption by some Of the uniformed
papers of this city, that the Miss Ger
trude Blood who is to be married to Sir
Colin Campell, one of the youngest sons
of the Duke of Argyll, is the daughter
of Victoria Woodruff, and that the
Princess Louise is to grace the wedding
with her presence. The truth OF the
matter, unfortunately, spoils what
might be woven into a pretty nuptlal
romance. 1t would be so easy to make
Henry Ward Beecher the officiating
clergyman, get Theodore Tilton, in the
absence of Col. Blood, to give the bride
away, and have Bessie Turner for chief
bridesmaid, with Frauk Moulton and
Tearful Tommy Sherman, as witnesses
of the contract But the fact is that
the Miss Blood in question is the dangh-
ter of an Irish gentleman of the County
Clare, and is the heiress of $500, 900
worth of property. Yet it is not strange
that the night and the telegraph editors
Of some of she Chicago blanket sheet
newspapers, should confuse the daugh-
ter of an Irish gentlem III with the off,
spring of a free-lover 1t is little way
they have when upon European news
topics. s.-Chicago Morning Herald.

there was a bit of Sc f.interest in deSir-
