Something Worth Knowing.


A call at the paint shop of NJ. a.
Morrison, successor to J. b. Latsch,
discloses the fact that Mr.. Morrison
does not carry on his business from
hand to hand with a pound of paint and
a quart of oil, but that he has a large
and complete stock of all materials used
in his business, such as oils, paints, var
nishes, turpentlne, &c j., all received in
bulk direct from Chicago, so that. not
wi%thstanding he is receiving many or
ders daily, he can take all that
without fear of running out of mate
rial. Mr.. Morrison's stock is OF the
best standard brands and no cheap imi-
tations are used for any purpose. The
workmen are the best hat can be had
and their work shows for itself.

The English Failure to Govern Ire.
land.

chicago Times.
English government in Ireland is a
failure in every respect. 1t has pre-.
vented prosperity to the'Irish by a va
riety of prohibitory legislation which
has left them largely mere potato
raising people, and has directed their
earnings into the pockets of the land
lords who originally were the pets of
Henry. or Elizabeth, or Cromwell.
But it can no longer secure these men
their rental, bring prosperity to the
Irish people, secure the safety of it's
own representatives in the island, or
punish their assassins. With. what
reproaches England would have loaded
America if the assassins of Lincoln or
Garfield had escaped What sneers she
would have INDUCED at the expense. of
the republic. Her own power in Ire
land isn't sufficient to prevent double
murder in broad day, nor detect those
who engaged in it. = She allows local
legislation in Australia and Canada
and other of her colonies, but none to
Ireland, in order that she may govern
her the better from Downing street by
parliament that passes repressive
measures that will fail because of their
very severity. England has camped
in Ireland for seven hundred years,
and while she has been protesting pro-
found pity for the woes of Greece, and
aiding her tyrant, or boasting of her
sympathy with distressed and enslav-
ed humanity, while she did her best
short of actual armed help to perpetu-
ate the Confederate states with their
system of black slavery, she has been
heaping unnumbered woes upon Ire
land. She won't quit, of course. 1t
is doubtful if she can be forced to re-
linquish her grip on the island, but
she has no more right there than
Brother Jonathan would have in Eng
land. 1t is reasonable to believe, after
centuries of experience. that there will
not be any peace in Ireland until she
goes.

A Pony's Good Example.

sacramento Record.
A man of middle age proved himself
a philosopher yesterday, and a wise
man. He had driven in from Brighten
way, and when near the corner of n
and Fourteenth streets his pony refused
to draw the overloaded wagon behind
it. Much coaxing availed nothing
Finally temper was lost and good judg-
ment dtthroned. as the owner of the
balky animal let cut with a vicious
kick at the pony's stomach; but the
horse SHE'D. and the man slipped as his
kicking.foot went over his head, and
he landed squarely on his back in the
mud. Then to show the crowd just
how mad a man can get at a mean
horse, he arose and leveled q blow with
his fist at the pony's head, but the
shrewd beast ducked its neck and the
fist fairly struck Ere on the head-stall

and he fell behind the pony's heels,
with his head badly tangled up between
the traces and reins.
Quite a crowd had now collected,
when the owner of the beast that
might have kicked his brains out, but
didn't, finally regained his feet. Turn

Borrowed Troubles.
Faith Harper.


l think it was Sidney Smith who
recommended taking "short views" as
a safeguard against needless worry
and one far wiser than he has said
"Take, therefore, no thought for the
morrow, for the morrow shall take
thought for the things of itself. Suf.
ficient unto the day is the evil there
Of"
There are no troubles that wear upon
the temper and sap the foundations of
all peace and comfort as do borrowed
troubles; because there is no provision
made in the divine economy for help
to bear them. We have mo promise
that strength will be given to sustain
is under the weight of imaginary bur
dens. Real trials, bravely and patient
ly borne, are moral tonics, strengthen
ing and purifying in their influence,
lifting the soul to higher levels and
broader outlooks. But it is only by
receiving them as they come, one day
at a time, and taking no thought fol-
those of the morrow that they will
yield Us the full measure of good with
which they are fraught.

The KIND of Horse He Wanted

B. ston Journal.
The Charl stown district, as every
body hereabouts knows, proposes to
celebrate the approaching anniversary
Of the Battle of Bunker Hill by an
antique" parade. A company of
mounted men is expected to b. prom
inent feature in this display, and those
who are to figure in it are at present
zealously searching after horses to car
ry them upon the important occasion.
1t will surprise many persons, who
may have thought the supply of horses
almost inexhaustible, to learn that they
have encountered serious difficulties In
this endeavor. An explanation of this
fact, however, is found to be that they
are not to be satisfied with any and
every horse that is offered to them.
This is shown by the following CONVEX
satiop, which recently occurred be-
tween one of them, who has not
much confidence in his horse
manship, and a man Of whom e
made inquiries touching the matter in
hand: ado you know where / can find
a horse?" asked the would. be eques-
triaD. NO" said the other; "what
sort Of hores do you want-a spirited
animal?" "well no. not very spirited
one. " Well, then, do you want quiet
one?" mo, not exactly a quiet one"
"How would medium sort of horse
do?' "That wouldn't be quite the thing,
either. Fact is, wanted horse that
looks good deal more spirited than he
really is"

lady was sick, and she officiated as
nurse and did the washing, ironing, and
cooking for the family. At the end of
four weeks she was to return home,
and her bill was called. Now, gentle
reader, what do you think she charged
for doing the amount Of work as
narrated abovep The first week
seventy-five cents, the second, eighty
three cents, and the last weeks, one
dollar each, making three dollars and
fifty-eight cents for four weeks ser.

twenty-five cents, leaving three dollars
and thirty-three cents for four of the
hardest weeks labor ever put upon a.
woman to perform, and yet she never
struck for higher wages, but served
her time faithfully. and is to-day a.
