yalue eOi WOman's Work.

The Rev. Thomas X. Beecher, writ
ing to the Christian Union of his camp
life in the woods, gives the following
advice
All men ught to 90 to the woods and
religiously do their own washing and
general work-such as sewing, cooking,
housekeeping and diShwashlng. The
work of women is not spoken of senSi-
bly, by men till they have done it them
selves. Gentleman reader il is easy to
talk, But lust try it on 4 very moter-
ate scale once, and you'll honor work
ing women more than ever. DO as
have done-do IA wash Of six pieces,
and then remember that woman
turns off two hundred pieces in day.
Look at your watch ard see how long II
takes you Look at your soap ana SEE
how much you have used. Look al
your white clothes, handkerchief OF
towel, and see what you have done or
not done, and never again speak harsh
ly of or to Il woman on washday, hor OF
laundry work as if il were unskilled Ia
bor Try it. A sympathetic gentleman
having washed two dozen pieces vii
never change his shirt again without
glow of reverence and gratitude. Sh'
did this. a similar and sa!uta,Ory con
seriousness will come TO him who darn
his own socks, patches bis trowsers
spices his suspenderS and washes
dishes. Lock not every man upon hl'
old things, but every man also npol
the work of a woman. Such an eXperl
ence in the woods will go far TOWARD
settling the woman question, ny teach
ing us we are all members one OF anoth
er, and there must be no schiSm.

Almost every one has a pet of some
kind, and favorite cats or dogs will be
found in number of houses. Canary
birds are also popular, while here and
there IA mocking or red bird can he
found. A lady in this city has Il pet
monkey that is very interesting, and
which she prizes highly, but officer
Tibbett has pet coon that he thinks
exces them all. The animal is about
five years old, and has been in officer
1ibbett's possession about one year. II
is fastened in the yard with light
chain, and has a box to sleep in, be-
sides a perch on the fence from which II
surveys the surroundings. 1t il very
cunning, and few evenings since
when lighted squib was thrown to II,
showed its good sense by pushing 1t IN

Until recently it was harmless, and
would make friends with almost any
one, but about two weeks ago a young
man teased it, and since that time i,
has become very cross to strangers and

ing on Reed street, near Harrison, have

Mrs Dol.ard partook of il and pro
nouncsd it excellent. Several hours
afterwards one of the children was
taken violently i'll, and in few minute:
two more were taken

physician was summoned but the Sntl
frers oid not experience much relief I'M
iii midnight, when the effects Of the

A lNanfEaSlictf<Aaa.

A gentleman called at the REPUBLI-
CAN office yesterday TO say that the iol'
lowing, found in Saturdays issue of the
REPUBLICAN, so far as it relates to the
local option Counties on the Eastern
Shore OF Maryland is totally untrue !:
There is do denying the fact that
drunkenness is on the increase, ana II
seems equally certain that the plans
which have been tried for the purpose
of decreasing the amount of drunkardS,
and the amount of liquor sold, have all
proved futile and Intellectual. The pro.
hibitory laws have, as a genera thing,
proved failures, and instead of decreas-
ing the amount of liquor sold and used,
have only deprived the Counties or
States Of the money previously paid Tor
license.
A gentleman who has recently spen t
several weeks in u town III Maryland
where local option is in full force, says
that it is almost as easy to obtain liquor
there ~ it is in Wilmington, ard the
pro- lem still remains unsolved how to
stay the inc reasing tide of intemper-
anCe.
He says that during four days stay
at Cambridge, v here this law Is III
effect, he did not see drop of liquor,
and saw only two intoxicated men and
they did not belong there, but brought
their liquor with them. He was told
| that he could not get drop OF llquoi
in the town under any circumstances
unless upon physician's prescription,
and IA more orderly and temperate sci
of people he Eever saw in his life.
There were only two persons Ill the
Jail at the time OF his visit, both color
Ell. One of them was convicted of rape
and has since he was ,here been hung
and the other one was convicted TO
selling liquor without license. He wa
told that there was not much need of ;
Jail there siuce the local option law
vent into effect. He believed the whul,
reports as published to be tissue OF
taIsehood and made purposely TO lnjure
the temperance cause.
