Bill Arp'S Philosophy.

1t don't pay TO get mad about any
thing. much less about politics. Getting
mad cheats n man out of his time. He
cnn lose dav or two days, or even n
week, thinking about it and fretting
over it, and that interfereS with his bus
incss and deranges his digestion, aad
makes his family unhappy. He had
better 90 dead for n while and come to
life again. Getting mad is the poorest
way to get even with an enemy | ever
tried. 1t don't pay worth n cent, and
always makes man lose his own self
respect. Now man may get mad with
himself for being fool and it will do
him no harm. In fact, it may do good,
for it's sign of repentance. | knew
young man to 90 to 4 church fair and
the girls honeyed six dollars out of
him and he went home and undreSSed
and tied one arm to the bed-post and
whipped himself with the other, and as
he cut himself round the legs he would
say: "iou 60 to another church fair!
You let them girls fool you out of your
money again! You pay ten cents for
every fool letter they stick at youi You
give half dollar for a little dab of ice
cream-I'll learn You some sense,
will," and rs he talked to himself he
kept the switch going lively, and would
dance up and down just like he was an
other fellow. Now, that is a good idea.
When man makes fool of himself
and goes ripping around let him tie
himself up and give himself good
whipping, and then take fresh start in
the morning. If \ man gets into fight
with another man he might accidental
ly get whipped, and then everybody
would hear of it, but if he whips him
self all by himself it will do more good,
and nobody would ever know anything
about it.-.1thantG Constitution.

AdulteratiOn.

Adulteration has become a science.
We water our stock, and sand our sugar,
and dilute our prayers with many words,
and have fallen SO low that we Use glue
in our ice cream. What an appetizing
combination is glue and cream. We
don't know what the glue is made of,
and for that matter We don't know what
the cream is made of, though we have a
strong feeling that any self-respecting
cow would repudiate the idea that she
had anything to do with its manufact-
ure, but when the glue and the cream
are properly compounded one is able to
buy heaping plate of the refreshment
at the old price. while the profits of the
saloon keeper are indefinitely increased.
The beauty of the glue is that it makes
the ice cream frothy, and deludes the
unwary into the belief that he gets n
great deal more than he pays for. There
may. however, he moral side to this
matter, and if glue taken internally will
only make some men stick to their
word, and make Others stick to their
business instead Of spending most of
their time attending to other peoples,
it will cease to be an adulteration and
become q boon.-M Y. Herald.

-Stem-winding watches are now
made on different plan from what has,
been customary, the improved system
possessing, it is thought, some special
advantages. Thus, when it Is desired
to set the hands, the stem Is first drawn
out, which causes collar on tho end of
it to bear upon stud in the shorter arm
Of two-armed curved lever. This de-
presses the long arm of the latter, which
turns yoke and discharges the gearing
from the handspring arbor, connecting
an independent wheel with the hand
setting train, to which motion Is i'm
parted by turning the stem. As soon a.
pulling on the stem ceases, tho yoke II
thrown back to its place by q spring.
Normally, another wheel, carried by the
yoke, meshes with the arbor wheel of
the handspring, and is thus always
ready for winding by pressing down up
on and winding the stem. The arrange
ment is simple.-Chicago Times.

supernatural visitors are seen, not oc
,caSionaliy and exceptionally, but con-
slantiy and every day. "According to
j thy faith,' is sure maxim for all ghost
seers. "Did you ever see duppy,
lsaac?" asked my stable-boy one day;
and he grinncd outright with all his
white teeth at the very absurdity of the
question. "a duppy, sah," he an
swered contemptuously: 81 see plenty
duppy: see dem all time; l see dem
about de house ebbery ebening." Plain
ly, one might almost rs well have asked
whether he had ever seen n dog or a
chicken.
The commOnness Of duppies about
ones house, though psychologically in
teresting, has its practical disadvantages
rs well. The servants SEQ them at all
times of day and night, and are much
hindered in their houshold duties ac-
cordingly. Sometimes dupper runs or
fits across the passage as one of them is
coming in with a trayful of glass or
crockery; and the poor mortal, in genu-
inc alarm, lets drop the whole tea-set on
the floor with a sudden scream of un-
feigned horror. More disagreeabe still
is the interference of the supernatural
visitors with our means of communica-
ton at midnight. All the servants sleep,
West Indian fashion, in a sort of bar
rack at the rear of the house, connected
with it by covered corridor; but it is
no use ringing the bells in case of unex-
pcctcd illness; one must 90 and hunt
them up in person; or. if alone in the
house, you may ring till You are tired,
&nd in the morning your boy will come
to your room with long face and say
to you, ruefully: "All, sab, de duppies
dem pullin' de bell in de night like mad
ting" For ourselves. it is true, we sell
dom, or never-I may say never out
right, indeed-see an indubitable duppv,
but the servants explain this bv saving
that white people have not often the
gift of discerning them. And in fact it
is curious to live in place where such
very different grades of intelligence are
cast together side by side-nnetecnth
century European thought with almost
unaltcred African barbarism, essentially
the same in spirit As it was q couple of
thousand years ago. The two sets of
people live in the same houses and Join
in the same external acts of life; hut for
all that they live in two utterly different
worlds, seeing things and mixing with
beings absolutely unknown to one an
Other.-PW Nal Gd.ctte.

Cyrus w. Fields Pluck.

The boy, Cyrus w. Field, was not
studious or meditative-not languid or
dreamy. He didn't want to go to college
lie was active, shrewd, cunning, CONF
mercial. He is known to have Whitfield
out willow whistle that wouldn't 20
and traded it for good jack-knife. "IIe
won't do for the ministry" said his
father, "Fll put him in store" As an
infant he was an invalid-so weak and
frail that his little body had to be sup
ported in frame, in which he managed
to roll himself around the room; but he
recovered, and then he made up for the
time he had lost, in pretcrnatural activity
and vivacity. When he was fifteen he
went to New York and entered A. II.
Stewards store as clerk. Six years of
this was enough for him. When he was
twenty-one he set up as paper manu-
facturer. He had not learned the trade,
he had no experience in it, and he had
no capital, but he had pluck and restless
industry, and he succeeded.
Cyrus w. Field had a boyish theory
that $25O,OO0 was enough for any man,
and SO he registered various VOWS in vari-
Gus places that when he had made that
he would absolutely retire from business
When he was thirty-three he had reached
the prescribed goal, and he said to his
friends: "Now, behold how virtuous Il
man can be" He retired-at any rate
he began to taper off by a six months
tour to South America, in company with
the distinguished artist, Church. When
he came back he settled down as retired
merchant for week or two, and then
his empty hands began to be uneasy He
suddenly got hold of the Atlantic cable
idea, or rather A. G. l., got hold of him,
and it shook him over the gulf of disas-
ter and despair for twelve years. He
subscribed $4,000 to it, then $4,000,
and finally had to pay out 100000, and
Peter Cooper, Marshall O. Roberts and
Moses Taylor each as much more, merely
to get the cable to New Foundland.
Then he raised S3,000,0O0 in England for
the Atlantic cable. The cable broke in
mid ocean, carrying all his fortune with
it, and he came home and went into the
paper business again. He made another
fortune and put it at once into the i'm
periled scheme that so many other friends
were deserting sick at heart In 1865
the cable broke again. Still he persis'-
ed, raised S3,000,000 more in England,
making $4,000, 900 in all and at last sue
ceeded. think he never went out of
business after that, and he soon found
that ten times the sufficient fortune" of
his youth was not enough Chicago

Carrots as Food for Horses.

A correspondent of long experience
calls our attention TO the following ex-
tract from the London Lire Stock Jour-
nal, adding that he has himself fed car
rots to cart and other horses for thirty
years with good results, rs hundreds of
others have also done throughout the
Eastern States, and that he has never
heard of any injury from their use:
We do not entirely agree with those
who maintain that the carrot is the most
wholesome and nourishing food which
can be given to horses. The carrot, says
II -dgricutture, is excellent when en-
ployed rs tonic for old horses in order
to purify and strengthen the blood; but
its Use is dangerous for young horses,
and especially for stations. 1t gives
them too much blood; makes them nerv-
Gus, irritable, spiteful or vicious when
at work, and predisposes them to apo
plectic fits if they do not take enough
exercise. Geldings and mares might
not be particularly liable to inconven-
icnce of this nature; nevertheless, in all
cases carrots should be given with the
greatest moderation to horses of less
than ten years of age. For horses past
this age they may be harmless; and with
oats, may constitute valuable article
of food. Horses eat them with avidity,
especially when they are mixed with
coarse bran. This diet gives horses new
blood, which seems to restore their
youth.
Unfortunately, the carrot is not to
be had all the year round. We need
not regret this. however. An article of
food the effect of which is so powerful
is only valuable when employed for n
time. Its prolonged use is OF no good;
for the body can get accustomed to
everything, even to tho most violent
medicines. The carrot might be very
appropriately called the regenerator of
old worn-out horses. A horse which
has been improperly treated, is fatigued,
thin and exhausted, improves visibly
when fed upon this generous diet But
if those who have the care of the animal
are not careful to let it take regular ex-
ercise, or TO take a little blood from it,
or, better still, administer a strong pur-
gative, they will find that. just when the
embonpoint and vigor begin to be no.
ticeable, the horse is seized with apo
plexy. and perishes. just when it ap-
peared to be completely made over
again, and fit for work.

Arab as a Candy.Maker.

"Do you know who Arab Bey lisp"
asked Mr.. +. of his friend Mr.. A., as
they stood on the deck of the New Ca
melia last Sunday, bound for Mande-
vile.
"Arabi Bey is no other than Dumon-
tell, who used to keep confectionery
establishment at the corner of Bourbon
and Canal streets. Dumonteil was q
Major in the Orleans artillery and a gal
liant soldier-an adventurous, daring
fellow. After the war he engaged in
business, succeeding Bellanger ut the
corner of Bourbon and Canal. He ran
into debt for $4,000 or $4,000, and
went to France about 1869. Dumonteil
fought in the Franco-Prussian war, and
was distinguished for bravery, receiving
the cross of the Legion of Honor. The
next heard about him, from mutual
friend in Paris, was that he had gone to
Egypt. Several years ago the vague
rumor reached me that the irresponsible
Dumonteil had entered the army of the
Khedive and risen to position of rank.
1t is said that he stood in high favor
with the army, and was regarded al
most in the light of native. recol-
lcct him." continued Mr.. f., ''as a tall,
swarthy fellow, with large features, but
clear, brilliant eyes, and heavy black
mustache. In fact, he had a rather
Oriental cast of countenance, and ten
years residence in Africa would have
certainly increased the resemblance.
Dressed in the Egyptian garb can i'm
agine that Dumonteil would make fine
looking Arab.
"The other day | saw picture of
Arab Bcy, and was startled at his strik-
ing likeness to Dumonteil. Indeed, no
one who knew the latter would hesitate
in identifying the picture as that of the
quondam confectioner. There was u
peculiar expression about Dumonteil's
mouth which is closely reproduced in
the picture. This resemblance, coupled
with the fact of Dumonteil's presence in
Egypt, assures me that he is the Egvp-
tian leader who is just now giving the
English so much trouble"
The above conversation was repeated
to the writer yesterday, and is repro
duced as nearly as possible from memo
ry.-N. o. Pcapune.

years ago, stood on that very corner

"Ah! replied the Young man, shak-

that the old man might have thought of

The host smiled. Said he:

you to be an honorable, right-mindcd,
true-heartcd man."
The young merchant, happier than he
had been for Il long time, at length sat
at the old mans table, where he was in
troduced to the wife and an only daugh-
ter. The host had told his guest that
during his years of misfortune four chill
dren had died. This daughter, now
nineteen, was his youngest, and had
been spared to him. She knew not her
been warned not to expose it inner hear
ing.
After dinner the young lady sat down
at the piano-forte; and in the course of
the evening Mr.. B Joined his voice
with hers in duet. Before he left,
with check for five thousand pounds
in his pocket, he had promised that he
would call again.
In one month from that time the
young merchant asked the old mendi-
cant for the hand of his daughter; and
it would be hard to tell which was the
happier of the two-thc supplicant,
when he had been answered in the af-
tirmative, or the father, when he knew
that his beloved child had secured
for life companion man in whom he
had, from the very first, felt trust and
confidence which had grown stronger
day by day.
On the day that the nuptial contract
was signed the old beggar on the street
corner settled upon his daughter fifty
thousand pounds; and put away his
rags and his bent shoulders forever!
And the merchant, through Il long and
prosperous career, found new cause, day
after day, and year after year, to bless
the fortunate misfortune that had led
him to an acquaintance with the street
beggar!-N. y Ledger.
