No labor. pains, temperance, poverty,

grudged. For sickness is cannibal
which eats up all the life and youth il

wailing, distracted phantom, absolutely
selfish, needless Of what is good and

its soul, and affecting other souls with
meanness and NOR ing, and with minis

johnson said, severely, /" Every man is
. rascal as soon as he is sick" Drop
the cant and treat it sanely. In dealing
with the drunken, we do not affect to be
drunk. We must treat the sick with the
same firmness, giving them, Of course,
every aid--but Withholding ourselves.
And the best part OF health Is fine dis

healthy things are sweet-tempered. II

Malicious Mischief.

On Saturday night when a jot
was put on the APPEALS Globe
press, an attempt was made tC
revoiye the fly wheel, when a
curious crunching sound caught
the attention of the printers and
an examination of the machine
was made. 1t was found that
some one had inserted the neck
of a champaign bottle in the
cog5 Of the wheels, SO as either
to break the cogs OR prevent the
machine from running. The
ground glass had become so en-
bedded in the coGs that it re-
guired three hours Of hard work
to put the press in order. The
glass could only have gotten
there by design, as the place
where it was put can only be
reached with difficulty. This is
about as low and dirty piece
Of wsrk as a biped can engage in.

a Desirable Invention.

There is now on exhibition at
Torreyson's blacksmith shop a
new wagon, built for NIcComber,
the wood man. 1t is mounted
on two wheels and supplied
with a numcer of patent con-
trivances for loading and un-
loading wood. 1t holds just
half a cord, and by touching a
spring the wood is lifted bodily
over the fence into the yard and
deposited all piled just where
you want it. If less than an
honest measurement is put on
the wagon turns double somer-
sault and kills the driver. Mr..
McComber, who always gives
full measure, feels as safe on the
box as if he were sitting on his
door stoop.

Campaign Cuts.

The San Francisco printing
houses are sending out speci
men sheets of campaign cuts
The APPEAL has received one
The first illustration is a picture
of Lincoln and Garfield welded
together at the shoulders. They
look like the James boys. Then
there is the picture of the
soldiers, and lawyers and mari
ners, and tailors, and black
smiths, and farmers, and edit
ors gathering about Il big rock
with a cupola marked sConsti-
tuition aud Laws" and back
grounded by the sunburst of
Ireland and thirty-six comets.
This cut is IFS years old, yet the
type feundries offer it for sale
every two years at one dollar
and quarter. Then comes the
barnyard display In which the
American eagle with his beak
full of telegraphio slips on which
are supposed to be written the
election returns, is mixed up
with dunghill ROSTERS, some
growing vociferously and others
throwing up their breakfast.
The eagles are of the same breed
that so on matchbox covers at
the intervals between elections
Then comes the Goddess of
Liberty half dressed. 1t is a
shame and reproach to the
American people that this bare
legged divinity isn't furnished
with more clothes. Alongside
Of the Goddess is rooster play |
ing a solo on a bugle, and on
the other side two men giving !
each other the Knights of
Pythias grip over the American
lag. The other two hands are
lot shown in the picture, but
ire supposed to be doing good
work for their respective own
,rs in the treasury safe. 1t is
nigh time the type founders
melted these old fashioned
up and made them
nto babbitt-metal.

Hunlpty Dunipty.

This ancient comedy has been
played in one form or another
for over two thousand years. 1t
is of Italian extraction, but most
of the Italian has been extracted
since the roaring old piece was
brought to America. Being a
pantomime it can be understood
anywhere, and adults and chill
dren howl and yell over it alike.
You never get tired of witness
ing "Humpty Dumpty" any
more than men get tired of see
ing dog fights, night after night.
Almost anyone's first recollectios
of the stage are "Humpty
Dumpty" at the Christmas pan
temime and all of US will 60 and
shrek and laugh and applaud
as we did then. When the
piece was first played in Italy it
did not have so many spectacu-
lar effects as now, because the
art Of endowing pump handles
with life, and painting wooden
flatirons red hot, and causing
grain fields to turn into oceans,
were not yet learned by the
stage managers. Each year has
witnessed the introduction of
some novelty, Elusive, laughable
or startling, each manager
crowds in more fun or adds
another part and now it would
take a pretty smart man to im-
prove it. The play travels
right along with the times, and
sometimes a little ahead of it.
Go and see "Humpty Dumpty
and take the children.
