respected By all who kaew him, to
attend one Of their evening meet

of the deacon was a matter OF doubt
among bis fellow townsmen, and
particularly with the old man above
mentioned, who, for convenience,
we may call Uncle Josh After re-
peated calls Uucle Josh consented to
accompany the deacon to one of the
meetings, and accordingly accom~

evening much to the surprise of all
present. 10 the course of the even>
ing the deacon arose with peniten~

sinners, he said. If he got bis de-
serts he would be banished forev

king himself out to be all that is

with the sublime sense Of having
done his duty, and asked Uncle
Josh if he would not tell his experi>

attention of the assembly. 1t was
an unknown occurrence for Uucle
Josh to speak in meeting. lie said
he had listened with interest to the
remarks of the deacon, and he could
assure the brethren that from his
long acquaintance with him he could
endorse all the deacon had said COM
corning his meanness and vileness,
for he was certainly the meanest
man he ever knew. The wrath of
the deacon grew terrific, he shook
his fist under Uncle JoSh's nose and
exclaimed. "You are a confunded
liar, and will whip you as soon as
soon as you can get out Of church J"

prominent that the people of this

times as much as is given for the

comes to light that the bees of

| The best naturod woman in the Uni"
ted States lives | Austin. She has beer
m arried q number of years to mar
nam d Ferguson, but she aud her hus
band have never had d quarrel yet, aud
| he has frequently DOasted that 1t was
utterly impossible to make her angry,
| Ferguson made several depsrate at
Jempts to see II he could exasperate her
10 look Cross or scowl at him, merely
to crafty his curiosity, but the more
outrageous he acted the more affable
and loving she behaved.
Last week he was talking with a
friend about hard time he had trying
to fnd out his if wifs had temper. The
fri. nd offered to bet 800 that if Fergu-
son were to go home drunk, raise row
and pull the tablecloth full of dishes off
the table, she would show some annoy
anCe. Ferguson said he didn't want to
rob a friend of his money, for he knew
be would win; but they at last made o
bat of $50, tho friend to hide in the front
yard and watch the pro ,eedings of the
convention through the window.
Ferguson came home late, and, ap.
parently, fighting drunk. She met
him at the gate, kissed him, and assist.
cd his tottering steps to the house. Ho
sat down in the middle of the floor and
how ed out:
"Confound yer ugly picture, what
did you mean by pulling that chair
from under me?"
80, l hope you did not hurt yourself
1t is my awkW ardness, but I'll try not
do it again" and helped him to his feet,
she had nothing In the world
~ do with his falling.
lie then sat down on the sofa, AMI,
sliding off on the floor, abused her like
II pickpocket for lifting up the other
end of the sofa, all of which she took
good naturedly, and finally she led
him to the supper tabl9. He threw a
plate at he but she acted as II she had |
not noticed it, and asked him If he
would take tea or coffee.
Then the brute seized the tablecloth |
and sat down on the floor, pulling the
dishes and everything else over him In
)ne crash.
What did this noble woman do?
Do you suppose she grumbled and
talked about going home to her ma, or
hat she sulked aud pouted. Not bit
If 1t. With We y pleasant smile, she
aid:
"Why, George, that's a new idea,
sn't it?
We have been married ten years, and
lave never yet ate our supper on the
loor. Won't it be fun-just like those
'icnics we used to go to before we got
narried?"
And then this angelic woman deliber-
'tely sat down on the floor alongside of
he wretch, arranged the dishes, aud
lxed him nice supper.
This broke George all up. He owned
Ip he was only fooling her, and offered
o give her the $50 to geI herself new
Iat; but she took the money, and bought
i'm new suit of clothes and box of
igars.

lead" in point of worth, merit and

have discovered this, and freely pre-
scribe it, and hundreds who have been
relieved of dangerous affections Of the

A man carrying two paint kettles
called ut the drug store of DR.. Cooper,
Seventh and Jefferson streets, yester.
day morning, and asked for a piece OF
court plaster to apply to wound on
his wife's face, as she had fallen down
and cut it. At that moment q woman
entered the store, and, after denying
she was the mans wife, charged him
with cutting her face by striking her
with the kettles. A long controversy
ensued between them, one charging the
other as being hanger on, but finally
passion subsided, the woman's face was
washed and the wouAds dressed and
they went off together as happy as two
