stating his mission, if he knew any
thing about the Great German Remedy.
ST. Jacobs oil. A smile played across
Mr.. Keefer's expressive face, and his
eyes twinkled merrily as he replied in
the affirmative. l will not refuse to
state my experience with it, and you
may use it as you think best. -Four
years ago l sprained one Of my ankles,
an accident which, as you are aware,
entails much suffering and sometimes
leaves the limb in a condition to re-
mind one frequently of the old hurt.
Unfortunately this result ensued, and
whenever the weather became damp or
my system absorbed the slightest cold
my ankles panied me. This went on at
intervals for over three years, and |
could not obtain relief. Last winter |
applied the st. Jacobs oil, and com
pletely cured me. l have not since felt
a return of the pain.

wrong with the school system of Texas.

"Well, you know. l couldn't send
him to school because, thanks to Gov.
Roberts, there are no free schools, and

"Well, l sent him away from Calves

would have it, he WAS convicted OF horse
stealing, and got five years in the peni

"No, 1t amt; for Gov. Roberts par.

and ignorance"

An Angels Touch.

One evening, not long ago, little girl
of nine or ten entered place in which is
a bakery, grocery and saloon in one,
and asked for five cents worth of tea.
CLOVIS your mother?" asked the boy
who came forward to wait on her. "Aw-
full sick, and amt had anything to eat
all day" The boy was Just then called
to wait upon some men who entered the
saloon, and the girl sat down. In five
minutes she was nodding, and in seven
she was sound asleep, and leaning her
head against a barrel, while she held the
poor old nickel in tight grip between
her thumb and finger. One of the men
saw her as he came from the bar, and
after asking who she was, said: "Say,
you drunkards, see here. Here we've
been pouring down whisky when this
poor child and her molher want bread.
Here's two-dollar bill that SAYS I've
got some feeling left.'' ''And can add
dollar" observed one. ''And I'll give
another
They made up purse of an even five
dollars, and the spokesman carefully put
the bill between two of the sleeper's fin
gers, drew the nickel away, and whis-
pered to his comrades, "Jist look a-there
the gals dreamingr' So she was.
A big tear had rolled out from her closed
eyelid, but the face was covered with a
smile. The men tip-toed out, and the
clerk walked over and touched the
sleeping child. She awoke with laugh
and cried out "What beautiful dream !
Ma wasn't sick any more, and we had
lots to eat and to wear, and my hand
burns yet where an angel touched itp'
When she discovered that her nickel had
been replaced by bill, dollar of which
loaded her down with all she could carry,
she innocently said, swell, now, but ma
won't hardly believe me that you sent
up to heaven and got an angel to come
down and clerk in your grocery!' San

An extraordinary case was developed
in the Office of Chief Clerk Sparks, of
the Court of General Sessions. In Sep
TENDER, 1880, Sherman Reed was SEN
fenced by Judge Gown to the Peniten-
tiary for three months for selling lottery
policy slips Reed was sent to the
Island, but in day or two was brought
down on writ of habeas corpus, and
pending an appeal was admitted to bail
in $4,000. His bondsman was Oliver
Blaher, a printer, of No. 112 William
Street, who qualified on real and per-
sonal estate to the amount of 10000
The decision was afterward confirmed,
and the District Attorney informed the
bondsman that the accused man must be
surrendered. The surrender was made
on a Monday morning Officer Isaac
Smith, of the Court of General Sessions,
brought man into Chief Clerk Sparks
office, and said that it was Reed, and,
after the usual routine the man was Or
dered back to the custody of the Sheriff
by Judge Gildersleeve, and he was taken
to the Penitentiary. Chief Clerk Sparks
this morning received word from the
Sheriff that the man had confessed to
Deputy-Warden Osborn that he was not
Sherman Reed, but James McGinnis, of
2S1 Mulberry Street. McGinnis was
taken befole Judge Gildersleeve without
delay. He said that he had been impor-
tuned by Blaber and other friends OF
Reed to personate Reed and serve out
his imprisonment. He had finally con-
sented to do SO on receipt of $50. The
money was dropped into his pocket by a
man with red mustache," whose
name he did not know, as he was being
taken across the City Park to the Sher-
ifs office. McGinnis was committed to
the Tombs on a charge of conspiracy,
and proceedings will be taken against
the other men implicated. -Mes0 York

A Fable. The Clam and the Jackal.


One day Farmer who was working
in the Field heard a great noise in Thick
ct, and upon proceeding to the Spot he
discovered Clam and Jackal engaged
in deadly strife. The Clam already had a
Bay Window over his left eye and had
lost two teeth, and the Jackal was spit
ting blood and limping around on three
legs. .....- --......... ......---. &.
s.Ah! I'm glad you've come?' cried
the Clam, as he caught sight of the
Farmer. ....
"And so am Ir' added the Jackal
"And why this fierce struggled" asked
the Farmer, as he sat down on stone
between them.
Jpn tell you in a very few words, y
said the Clam. This Jackal went out
of his way to ridicule my speech. Now,
do not want to brag, but l claim to use
good grammar in my talk, and L IL leave
it to YOU if don'tp''
That wasn't what raised the Row.
protested the Jackal. Il was walking
along the Sand when this Clam made
fun of my Gait. 1 don't claim to be as
graceful as Cow, but the Clam had no
business to say that my Walk reminded
him of milk-stool running away with
Barn-yard.''
MY friends replied the Farmer, as
a Hornet settled down on the back of his
neck, ''you are both wrong. In the first
place, if the Jackal had kept to he
woods the Clam would never have 10
ticed his awkward Gait. In the secoM
place, if the Clam had kept his MalFssna
shut the Jackal could have found 40
fault with his Grammar"

Lighthouse TerrOrs.

If those on shore are awed by the ter
nble violence of the winds and waves
during tempest what must be the ex-
periences of men who live in building
exposed to the full fury of the heavy
ocean breakersp When we look at a
lighthouse in calm weather, it is almost
impossible to realize that the sea some
times breaks over the lantern Such is,
however, frequently the case, and an in
stance of this occurred not long after the
completion of the Bishops Rock Light,
which is erected on rock beyond the
Scilly Islands, far out in the Atlantic.
One of the builders told of heavy sea
striking under the lantern and carving
away the fog-bell, which hung by stout
arm of iron nearly three inches square.
A few years ago the lighthouse keepers
on this rock were in terrible predica-
ment during hurricane, the violence of
which was described as being fearful.
The lighthouse was struck by enormous
waves in quick succession, each causing
a noise like the discharge Of q cannon,
and making the massive, stone building
rock to and fro, SO that every article fell
away from its place. One fearful sea
broke the great lens in several pieces,
and another smashed the cylinders of the
spare light, while sand from the bottom,
thirty fathoms deep, was found heaped
up on the lighthouse gallery. The power
of these unbroken masses of water is SO
great that lately, at Wick, one Of these
shocks moved ga concrete block of four
hundred tons built up in stu. "-Chans-
