says:
1.-THE difference between Barksdale
and Stone on the railroad question,
so far as we can gather from their
recent letters, is a matter of detail
and not of principle-both stand on

In the face Of this statement from
the pen Of Gen. Chalmers. an avowed
friend Of Barksdale, it occurs to US

The Careful Druggist.

WE'RE always hearing about careless
druggists. We never hear of the care
full druggist. Let us tell of him. The
other day Mr.. Gallagher went into DIR.
Stops drug store and asked for arsenic.
He said he wanted it to poison a dog.
The doctor noticed the look of gloom
and savage determination upon Gala
gher's countenance. But he was a
wise man, and said nothing. He gave
Gallagher a package and the latter
went home. Arriving there, he put a
dose of the powder given him into a
lot of meat, and then inveigled his
neighbours dog into his barp and fed
the meat to the animal. 1t was greed
lily devoured, and then the dog trotted
home and Gallagher went into the
house, satisfied that he had settled the
animal. Next morning the dog was
out in Gallagher's yard upsetting the
swill barrel, chasing the hens, and
making trouble, as usual. Gallagher
concluded he hadn't given the brute
another big dose. He was round again
healthy, and Gallagher concluded that
it took a heap of poison to kill that
dog. Three times more he tried the
poison. each time increasing the dose
and using fresh meat, and it got so that he
couldn't go out without finding the dog
waiting round to be poisoned some more.
Gallagher got very mad and, conclud-
ing that the poison in the meat
wouldn't work, but resolving to fix the
brute or bust, he called the dog 10 him
and dumped the paper of poison down
its throat. The dry powder choked
the dog, but that was all the effect il
had. Wild with rage, Gallagher
rushed to the doctors. arsenic is a
poison, isn't it?'' he asked. 1T is"
replied the doctor. "Well, the stuff
you sold me won't kill anything! Why's
that?" The doctor, after a stormy in
terview, explained. Gallagher, l
think l did my duty. You said you
wanted the poison for dog. but you
wanted it for yourself. l know it! l
saw it in your eye. To save your life l
sold you powdered chalk" ''And I've
been feeding that cursed dog for a
week on good meat and powdered
chalk! But I'll fix you for thisr' An
officer came at last and took Gallagher
to the station, and friends bound up
the doctors wounds and swept up the
broken glass and furniture. They rep
resented to the doctor that Gallagher
would have to pay for the damage
done, but the doctor was inconsolable
and swore the next time n man called
for poison he'd get il, even IL it was
plain he wanted to poison whols

Best Method of Preserving Posts.

REFERRING to the well-known meth
DDS of preserving posts and poles which
are partly imbedded in the earth. by
charring and coating with tar, the
Scientific american says these methods
are only effective when both are applied.
Should the poles only be charred, with
out the subsequent treatment with tar,
the charred formation on the surface
would only act as an absorber of the
moisture and, if anything hasten the de-
cay. By applying a coating of tar, &C
cording to the same authority, the tar
would only form casing about the
wood, nor could it penetrate TO the
depths which the absorbing properties
of the charcoal surface would insure.
Wood that is exposed to the action of
water or let into the ground should first
be charred and then, before it has en-
tirely cooled, be treated with tar until
the wood is thoroughly impregnated,
says the journal in question. The acetic
acid and oils contained in the tar are
evaporated by the heat and only the
resin left behind, which penetrates the
pores of the wood and forms an air-tight
and waterproof envelope. It is i'm
portant to impregnate the posts little
above the line of exposure, for here it is
that the action of decay affects the wood
first and where the break always occurs
when removed from the earth or strained
in testing.
