THE BACHELOR JUROR.

A gentleman who is given to
storytelling, relates the following
When | was a young man i spent
several years in the South, residing
for while at Port Gibson, on the
Mississippi river. A great deal of
litigation was going on there about
that time, and it was not an easy
matter to obtain jury. One day
was summoned to act in that capaci.
ty, and repaired to court to get ex-
cused. On my name being called,
! informed his honor, the Judge, that
I was not a freeholder, and therefore

am we'll satisfied that il ii far
easier to sit ava up here ON the
blossom end Of asy Creek and
find fault than Il to make laws:
But my opinion abo'nt dogs is this
That every dog within the State
should be considered property and
taxed as such, then hold the owner
responsible for ths damage his dog
may do, and also that the owner Of
the dog might recover for any dams
age done TO the dog. l know Mr.
Editor to talk about taxing dogs is
a grand insult to a great many people
it seems the dog has been privilized
character and household pet ever
since the dog licked poor old Lazar-
u.s. sores. when he lay at the rich

please tell me what is to be done
ABOUT these dogs violating the law:

DEATHS HARVEST.

The field grows white in the reaper's sight
The summer blessings fall
On the ripened wheat and the blossoms sweet,
And Heaven smiles down on all;
But the reaper sings while the hot air rings
With the rush of his sickle chill, sr
"Oh / reap and bind whatever find,
And garner my sheaves at will
The grain grows high but what careIf
I walk with giants peace,
Men shiver and cry as hurry by,
And shrink from my terrible face,
And the maid grows white in dumb alright
At my Misses. damp and chill;
But my arms are bold to have and to hold,
And garner my sheaves at will!
The air that roves through their orange groves
is thick with their coming doom;
And bring them death in the heavy breath
OF the fair magnolia bloom;
Where once through food of tears and blood
gathered my greedy fill,
/ come again, and through woe and pain
Igarner fresh sheaves at will r
Great Lord of the harvest, stay his hand !
Bid the cruel laborer cease;
Leave the little grain that shalt yet remain
To ripen and fall in peace.
Let the prayers that rise reach pitying skies,
Bid the fevered storms "Be stil;'
Tonch the stricken land with thy healing hama,
For the reaper bides thy will

TO SMOKERS.

An English workingman,jns past
the middle age, found that his pipe,
which for many years had been a
great comfort to him, was beginning
to seriously effect his nerves: Be-
fore giving it up, however, he deter
mined to find out if there was no way
by which he might continue to smoke
without feeling the effects to an in
iourious extent. He accordingly
wrote to medical journal and was
recommended to fiji the bowl Of his
pipe one-third fill of tabl. salt and
press the tobacco hard down upon it
as in ordinary smoking: The result
was very satisfactory. During the
process Of smoking the salt solidiies,
while remaining porous, and wheIl
the hardened lump is removed at the
end OF a days smoking it is found to
have absorbed so much of the oil Of
tobacco as to be deeply colorea
The salt should be renewed daily.E

And my main cut short, and my fore

two hundred and half in any mar
ket, and I'd wear fat harness and
no FLINDERS, and some day, when
some man hitched me up to dray,
and piled a ton and half of pig iron,
a cord of wood, six barrels of flour, a
good load of household goods and a
steamboat boiler, I would start off
with it patiently and haul it steadily

due largely I'd the use Of snlphuric
acid in the manufacture of shgar and
syrup. The aim Of the manufactut-
res is to exact the acid in final pro-
cesses, but this it is found impossible
TO do. Even maple sprup is Iafgely
aaulterated; much of that sold, in
fact; is not maple syrup at all, except
80 far as that article is used to flavor
it.,
It used to be considered safe I'd
use honey in the bomb, but now
nearly all this is manufactured. At
first the pure honey was extracted
from the comb and the bees fed on
glucose, from which the comb was
rapidly refi!led; but now artificial
combs are produced, and bees are
being fed on glucose so-called honey
is turned out in comparatively large
quantities, and bees at the time are
being demoralized.

sidered it safe to eat eggs-whateyer

this modern invention is; that success
has been achieved in producing the
contents and that the shell would
soon also be success. The enter-
prising inventor, however; was in
formed By the hotel proprietdrs that
if he furnished the yolk and tho
white he need not tronble himself
about the shell.
It may not be generally known
that all the syrups used in soda and
mineral waters are limitations. Theirs
is no s,ich thing as gei,hihs syrups
or favoring extracts. All are chemi-
cal preparations.
Next to the adulteration of food
the most iniquitous practice is that
of adulterating medicines. This is d
heartless business, beEause Il ofteIi
neutralizes the efforts of tshysioians I'd
check or cure disease.
It is reported of quinine pills which
are warranted by reason Of coating
not to be unpleasant to take, thaS
half or three-quarters of the 4uinine
is withheld; and people who take the
prescribed dose often wonder, nd
doubt, why the expected result il not
produced.
Upon the whole, the Legislatures
in tacklIng the business of adultera-
ting food and medicine has under
taking very heavy business, and if

enforced much good would be accoms

and butter, is now loaded on scows and
carried down the river during the
higher stages, where good market
is found. The boats are then disposed
of as the current is too rapid to return
them.
There is trail before spoken Of
down the river to Tide Water. Sur
rounding the valley is great abund-
ance Of excellent timber Near the
head of the valley David Ruble has
a Touring mill and also a saw mill.
On the head of the south fork of the
Alsea river in the eastern portion of
the precinct and near the Summit, are
two other saw mills, the lumber from
which is hauled over the mountains in
to the Willamette valley. There is in
the precinct one postofice supplied
by a mail twice week from Dallas in
Polk county. There is also mail
route carried weekly from Alsea down
the river to Waldport. There are
three school houses in which school is
kept up a good part of the year. Re-
ligious service is regularly held in the
different school houses there being no
church buildings. The population is
about $50 consisting of an industrious
and peaceable class. Among the early
settlers of the valley and not least in
shaping its destiny was our present
efficient County Commissioner James
Edwards. Another early settler was
Edward Winkle. Many will remem-
ber him as he appeared with mocasins
on his feet, and his ever present trusty
rifle on his shoulder and his butcher
knife in his belt. Where his incli-
nation led there he went, through the
mountains, without regard to roads
or trails depending ON his rifle for
food. On one occasion in order to
attack bear bayed BY his faithful
dog, it became necessary to crawl un-
der the brush for some distance and
finally to pass under log, when just
as he Strengthened up and before get
ting his gun out he found himself con-
fronted by the bear, which struck him
on the breast, tearing off his clothing
and lacerating the flesh in frightful
manner. Fortunately his dog came
to his rescue, the bear turned upon the
dog and succeeded in getting him in
his grasp and was about to end his
career when Winkle with feeling that
his dog had saved his life, considered
that it was but justice that he should
return the favor, closed il on the bear
with his knife, and succeeded in killing
him. Man and dog were hardly able
to crawl to their cabin where they lay
for several days before help accident
ally came.
The following contains a list Of the
names Of the persons paying tax upon
property in Alsea precinct No. 6, and

The Ohio Legislature is having it'd
attention directed to the adultera-
tion of food and medicines, says the
Cincinnati Gazette. OF course every
body knows that liquors are gener-
ally adulterated, but there is law
against this which is not enforced:
There seems to be an impression that
people who use intoxicating liquors
are served right If they take portion
ofpoison with their brandy, wine,
beer or whisky; but when it comes
to poisoning food, that is a matter Of
