Another One Who Played the Religious
Dodge,

Dodge.
Last spring G. M. Jones, who claim
ed to hail from GAINESVILLE, came to
this city for the purpose of assisting
in the distribution Of copies of the
Bible and Of the Revised Edition of
the New Testament. After working
short time he arrived at his limits of
endurance of hard labor, and settled
down to the beating Of those who
were willing to labor. out of enough
food to insure the continuance of his
power to move his lazy carcass when
he should find it necessary to do So.
In order to increase his power to i'm
pose upon others, he made great pro-
fessions Of piety, and exp p'essed an ar
d dent desire to fit himself for theH Hmin-
istry. 1t will seem unaccountable to
many that he should have been able
to impose upon others to the extent
that he has done for almost an entire
year; but his being able to do so is eX-
planned by the fact that he was con-
stantly complaining Of ill-health, and
his professions Of piety were apparent
ly so sincere that his religious ac-
quaintances, in the goodness Of their
hearts, were ready to believe him.
But the time came at last when the
patience of those who had so kindly
befriended him was completely eX-
hausted, and when they had arrived at
this point they made Jones understand
their opinion Of him. Finding that
his career in the city was at an end,
he gathered his traps together and de-
parted for an unknown locality, yes
terday Rev. w. P. Mclaughlin and
Mr.. Mahlon Bennett are very emphat-
ic in their denunciation Of the man
who so grossly abused their friendship.
They are joined by Samuel S. Holdren,
to whom he is debtor for board and
room about 500; Rev. w. A. Aber-
nethy, to whom he is indebted for
some weeks board and room; Mrs. J.
C. Winn, of Mulberry street, with
whom he boarded a short time; Mr..
George L. Armstrong, Of whom he
borrowed 500, and, perhaps, host of
others of whom we have not heard.
The following items of circumstantial
evidence point to the fact that he is an
accomplished dead-beat and an old
hand at iniquity of all kinds: He
has an extensive and accurate ac-
quaintance with the small towns of
Ohio; 2-He accidentally exposed, to
Mr.. Mahlon Bennett, small hand
bill on which the title Of doctor" was
prefxed to his name; 3-On good au-
thority, he spent many of his nights
while here with a negro servant girl;
and, lastly, he has displayed an amount
of cheek that would fill any one who
has any aspirations in that line with
mingled feeling of delight and des-
pair The community has been rid
den Of a great nuisance, and should
only feel sorry that the riddance was
not made sooner.

years, with annual compound inter-
est?"
They confessed they had never
thought of it.
'Do you smoke all those cigars your
selves?" | asked.
No, we give many away to the
fellows. One cannot help doing that,
you know, even if not inclined to it.
When we take cigar in company,
we must offer cigars to others, you
know"
"Now, you will have your own way
to make in the world" [ said. Your
parents are doing their utmost accord
ing to their means to give you the
very best start in life possible, and
you should consider that they cannot
insure your future. That depends
only upon yourselves. Without hab-
its of economy, as well as of industry,
you cannot possibly succeed, and | beg
you to pardon me for warning you
that you are not making wise de-
parture. My advice to you is to con-
slider whether careful self-denial be
not in your case wise and even neces-
sary.
"Your success in life will depend as
much, perhaps more upon what you
save us upon what you earn, and you
have now started out to make future
for yourselves, with habit of useless
expenditure that will certainly make
your life failure. That is my view
of it. This habit of wastefulness, to
speak of the tobacco habit only in that
way, without reference to the other
evils of it, will influence you in all
other matters of expenditure; so that
you cannot possibly succeed in life if
you continue the course you have now
entered upon. Expenditures, like saw
ings, increase rapidly and enormously
if there be added to them the annual
compound interest, which is the prop
er way to regard them. You have no
idea, you say, what your expenditures
IN cigars will amount to in series of
years, reckoned in that way. | can
tell you very nearly what they will be.
You are now about twenty years of
age. When you are thirty, your sew
enty-fve cents day, being about two
hundred and seventy-four dollars a
year, will amount to more than three
thousand dollars; at forty years of age
it will be more than nine thousand
dollars; when you shall be fifty years
old the sum will be more than twenty
thousand dollars; at sixty years of age
you will have wasted in that way
nearly forty-one thousand dollars; and
at seventy years, the amount will be
more than seventy-six thousand dol
lars. 1t is quite worth your while to
consider whether this expenditure will
be waste or not, whether it will be
wise or foolish investment of your
earnings"
When | see a youth beginning the
tobacco habit, he seems to me to be
riveting to his leg a 'og which he will
in after life drag along painfully, re-
GREETING bitterly the folly of his
young, thoughtless days, when he so
foolishly encountered his future, and,
looking, perhaps, with no kindly eye
upon those, his older friends or rela-
tives, who ought to have warned him
in his inexperience of the folly he was
about to commit. Thousands of
Christian men and women, who know
all this and more of the evils of the
tobacco habit, have never warned their
young friends against it.

Recipe for SteMed Onions.

Some people like onions, and must
have them occasionally ON their ta-
bles. Here is method for cook
ing them which will probably be
found an improvement on old prac-
tices. Have the hands, knife, and
onions. wet with water while peeling
them, or peel them under water.
Place them in tin or porcelain
lined kettle with plenty of water and
boil rapidly, one-third longer than the
time usually allowed; toward the last,
cook more slowly. Do not change
the water, for this would waste much
of the nutrition and gain but little
with regard to the oil which goes off
with the steam. Stew down the
water until it is creamy; dish this for
a dressing to the onions. If you have
nice fresh cream, add a little to the
dressing and pour it over them as you
dish them, but do not scald the
cream. Or use, instead of the cream,
little oatmeal milk, added before the
onions are removed from the fire; use
no butter, pepper, or salt. If well
cooked from one and half to three
hours, according to the kind, they
will not taint the breath perceptibly,
though that is more than we can say
of the room in which they are cooked.

FLAXEN AND BROWN AND GOLD.

FLAXEN AND BROWN AND GOLD.
Three little curls hold tonight,
FlaXen and brown and gold.
Tears fall over the tissue white
That gathers them in its fold-
As unwrap them one by one-
Flaxen and brown and gold.
FlaXen and brown and gold, so fair,
Clustered on pillows white,
Damp with the dews that gathered there,
Lay in one room all night.
Hearts seemed breaking when broke the morn
Over that lovely sight,
So they went out of our house alone.
Leaving it cold and bare;
Then unfolded. one by one,
These little curls of hair:
Heart too full of its bitterness.
Soul too full for a prayer.
Three little heads press close tonight
Pillows all still and cold;
Three little forms, in robes of white,
Under the turf and mould:
Three little brOws that used to wear
Flaxen and brown and gold.
These are the treasures left to me,
All of my babes to hold;
But when / near the waves and see
Heavenly gates unfold,
Their little brows know will look
Fairer meath crowns of gold.
