True Manhood.

Manhood, whether among ministers
or others, means a great many things,
but first of all, it means to be genuine
and true. In some it will appear in
the predominace of courage. They
will be our reformers. In others, in
qualities of fairness, prudence, sinceri-
ty, humility and gentleness. But al
ways the manly man is the man who is
thoroughly himself. He never drama
tizes. He never acts part. He puts
on no airs. He is not wise in his own
conceit. But if he has the basis of an
honest and truth-loving nature, he will
have power. If he makes mistakes, he
does not exalt them into virtues. He
is not ashamed of his heart. He can
confess weakness and error. But al
ways his inner self, with all struggles
and failures, comes to the surface; and
all who hear him and see him, will
know they have no failures nor strug-
giles that are not matched by similar
experience in the breast of their lead
er; and in that knowledge they have a
most mistaken basis for trust in him,
and far more for devotion to the ideals
toward which he has so supremely
striven.- Interior.

5000 pounds are tai en-. The manufao.
ture OF whalebone into articles of usa
and ornament is not 80 extensive rs

confined to New York and Boston, fonr
manufactures being in the former and
three in the latter. When the raw
whalebone is first received nj the fac
tory the hair is cut of the slabs. Thew
are then soaked in water until they are
soft, after which tkey are scraped of all
the gum that adheres 10 them. They
are put in steam box, where q work

they are then ready to be made use of
for any purpose that the dresser NAV
sec fit. Whalebone is principally used
nowadays III the manufacture of whips
and corsets. Umbrella frames used To
DO made altogether of whalebone, but
since its scarcity and high price, steel
is made use of for this purpose. Whale
bone hats and whalebone ribbon have
Just come into vogue. The former look
very beautiful and are comfortable on
the head.
Whales, like seals, do not get time to
grow, for they are slaughtered merci-
lessly, young and old, in the pursuit of
wealth. The old ones are often killed
before the young are able to take care
OF themselves, and the result of this
cruelty is loss of thousands and
thousands of whales and seals in
year. Mankind will have to be more
thoughtful in the work of slaughter if
it wishes to be better compensated by
these animals, and the whale must be
let alone for few years if the ladies
are to have fine corsets and the gentle
men fine walking-sticks and riding
whips.

said to his self, now she is getting me

he could not wait much longer. When
it was ready she said, Here Fido. "
And he was such a fool dog that he
snapped and swallowed it at two gulps,
and wagged his tail ever so much oblig
ed. Then his eyes watered and his tail
lost its wsg. He set down, and then he
got up and walked away and looked
back kind of sorrowful like. By and
by he said, 1 feel dry; believe have

The Printers Estate.

The printers dollars-where are
they? A dollar here and dollar there,
scattered all over the country, miles
and miles apart-how shall they be
gathered together? The paper maker,
the grocer, the miller, the tailor, the
shoemaker, and all the assistants to him
in. carrying on his business have their
demands; hardly ever so small as a sin
gle dollar. But the mites from here
and there must be diligently gathered
and patiently guarded, or the wherewith
to discharge the liabilities will never
become sufficiently bulky. We imagine
the printer will have to get up an ad.
dress to his widely scattered dollars
something like the following:
Dollars, halves, quarters, dimes, and
all manner of fractions into which ye
are divided, collect yourselves and come
homei Ye are wantedl Combinations

The New Process.

The roller system of milling, which
is said to have originated in Austro-
Hungary, where it has to a great extent
superseded the old fashion method of
fiat-grainding with mill stones, pos
sesses many advantages over the latter.
BY the modern process no stones are
used, the wheat passing through a series
of horizontal chilled iron rollers, each
series arranged upon massive iron
frame work. These rollers which are
faced with sharp burrows or CORFU
cations, while rotating face to face, at
different rates of speed, have squeez.
ing or bruising action upon the wheat
which passes through them. In this
respect the rollers possess the great ad.
vantage of not tearing or rubbing the
husk OF the wheat kernel, as is the case
by the old process. Another advantage
OF the roller system is that the wheat
in passing from one pair of cylinders
to the next, passes through an interven-
ing body of air, the slight heat develop
ed by the first operation being thorough
~ dissipated. Thus the flour it not in
jured by heat while in process of manu-
facture, and there is the further advan-
tage that all the -four portion of the
material is utilized, there being perfect
division of flour and offal.
After passing through the corrugated
iron rollers, which vary in number &C.
cording to the number of separations
desired, Gin the Golden Gate Mills it
is intended to make six), the -four is in
granulated state. In order to COM
plete the process of manufacture and
put it in merchantable condition, the
middlings which are separated from
the grist of the corrugated rollers are
passed through porcelain or smooth
chilled iron rollers of great strength
and high finish which pulverize it com.

8, The merchant who advertises sells
bis goods while they are new and fresh
and by so doing he loses the chances
(Which the non-advertising merchant
has and improves) of making big bar
gains on old and shop-worn goods.
4. Advertising is bad, because il is
liable TO breed ill.feeling snd jealously.
The merchant who doesn't advertise
sees the trade going 10 those who
do advertise, and he gets jealous and
soured in disposition.
3. Advertising in paper in your
own town helps TO keep the paper alive
and to keep il strong, so that il will do
a great deal of harm, perhaps.
9. III man advertises, folks will know
he is not dead. 1t is sometimes a great
disvantage to have it known that he isn't

Z. Advertising makes man prosper.

8. Advertising gives people the i'm
preston that you want to SELL This is
very bad. II makes people think you
are just an ordinary person. The true
business man always stands on his dig

commodation to the buyer. 1t is only

A Thrilling Fight for Life.
From Mobile, Ala. Register.

The following are the particulars of
a struggle for life on the top of NOV
ing freight train On the Mobile & Ohio
road, on Wednesday night: William B.
Connolly went up on top of the train
after dark and found three negroes
stealing ride. He asked them for the
fare and they replied that they did not
intend to pay fare. Mr.. @. told them
if they had no money they must either
help the engineer or get off the train.
The negroes said they would see who
would get off first, and started towards
the engine, as if to assist the engineer.
From the tender one of them secured a
billet of wood and came back over the
top Of the train, and while the brake
man had his back turned, standing near
one of the breaks, he was struck
across the temple and knocked almost
insensible.
Then began struggle for life on the
top of the train, which was running at
the rate of thirty or thirty-fve miles an
hour. The wounded and stunned
brakeman clutched the plank walk and
made desperate resistance to the three
brutes, who beat and bit his back, neck
and shoulders in horrible manner.
They repeatedly informed him that
they intended to kill him, and from the
injuries inflicted it is evident that to
murder him was their intention. They
succeeded in getting his right hand
loose and bit the thumb on that hand
while they endeavored to loosen the
hold of the other, so they could throw
him off the train. After they had bit
and beaten him for some time, the WINS
tie was blown for State Line, and. this
fact, Mr.. Connolly thinks, is all that
saved his life. When the train slowed
up for State Line the negroes jumped
off and escaped in the darkness. The
wounded man was heard grooming, and
found on the top of the train lying in
pool of blood. He was cared for by
the railroad attaches and sent back to
Mobile.
