was forty-six years of age. 1t is an interesting
fact and especially so to fataliss, that the only

of age at the time of his candidacy was defeated.
This was Stephen A. Douglas, who was forty

was the youngest of the presidents. Pierce was

TO THE PUBLIC.
Explanation of an Unwise and Unjust Dis
elimination.

As it has been extensively advertised that
Beissenherz's full brass band would take part in
the Odd fellows procession to-day and as we do
not take part in that procession, feel it due to
the members of the band and to myself to make
a brief explanation.
In February last, Mr.. Theodore Pfaff1in, acting
for the committee of arrangements, engaged my
band to furnish music and take part in the pa
rade of to-day An express conJractwas made and
all details as to service, terms, ETC., were agreed
upon. About two months ago made arrange
ments with. the Model Clothing Company that
hereafter the organization should be known as
the Model Clothing Company's Band. Being
well aware of the enterprise of the well-known
Model, / had full faith that the new uniforms
they intended to provide would be credit ia
that establishment and something we could be
proud of.
To my surprise Mr.. Pfaf1in came to me short
time ago and insisted on canceling the contract,
solely on the grounds of the calling of my band
the Model Dand," and stated that if we wore
our old uniforms he would take us; otherwise he
would not The public is not so blind as to be
unable 10 see what has led Mr.. Pfaffiin to this
conclusion, and will not be slow to comment
upon the prejudice of business man who thus
allows his favoritism for an opposition estab-
lshments to stand in the way of a deserving
home organization.
The Model Clothing Company determined that
the band should not lose any money on account
of Mr. Pfafflin's discrimination, and generously
agreed to pay the expense of our appearance,
and we shall, therefore, parade the streets of the
city solely for the publics benefit In the mean
time l am ready to receive orders and give
prompt and satisfactory musical service to all
who may desire it. H d. BEIssENHERz

Vitality Of Dried Willow Germs.

During the summer of 1853 Sylvester
Piper, now a resident of Chicago, called
my attention to a willow basket in a
ditch, which had sprouts several inches
in length all around it. A curiosity so
remarkable-possibly having no paral-
lel-led me to take immediate steps for
its preservation. dug the basket
up with the greatest care and found it
to be WORKOUT cast-away, which had
done service as a basket until it had be-
come so badly worn as to render it
worthless. when it found its way into
ditch at the base of the bank of the Illi-
nois l. Michigan Canal, about 800 feet
from the Bridgeport lock (now within
the city,, from whence l transplanted
it with great care, placing it in wet
place in my fathers garden; but, not
withstanding its former vitality and
careful removal. the shock was too
great for the tender shoots and they all
died. The basket was made wholly or
in part of unpealed willow, whose dried
and withered germs needed only the
opportunity to return to life l have
often resolved to have the story of the
"willow basket written and placed
upon record, while there were still
living other witnesses than myself to
verify it.-Scientifc american.

A GOOd.HumOred Statesman.

A statesman who would be success
full political leader should cultivate
good-humor, good digestion and the art
of sleeping anywhere at moment s
notice. Lord North, the Prime Minis
ter whom our revolutionary fathers
hated, was a fat, jolly, kind-hearted
soul, who could sleep through the
fiercest debate, and interpose his good
humQr between himself and the most
bitter invective.
His habitual pleasantly kept him in
working order amid failure and the
press of business. When the British
troops were repulsed at Charleston, S.
C., the Tory supporters of the Minister
were alarmed. But Lord North treated
the affair with his usual iollity.
'.Faith, my lord" he said to duke,
who demonstrated with him on his
seeming Indifference. eff fretting would
make me thin, would be as sorry as
YOUR grace; but since it will mot have
that effect, l bear it as well as can"
Like Napoleon, Lord North had the
ability to catch '.forty winks of sleep"
when and where he pleased. A men,
Der of the House of Commons became
SO excited, while declaiming against
the Minister, rs to call aloud for his
head. Looking around, esaw the OBJ
iect of his invective quietly slumbering.
ENasperated, he vehemently denounced
the man who could sleep while running
the country.
MIR. Speaker" said Lord North, in
reply, 81 must complain OF the cruelty
which denies to me solace so often
enjoyed by other criminals that of
having nights rest before their fate"
On another occasion, Colonel Barre
brought forward a motion on the British
navy. I'VE shall have tedious speech
from Barre tonight" said Lord North
to his friend and ally. Sir Grey Cooper.
He'll give us our naval history from
the beginning, not forgetting Sir Francis
Drake and the Armada. Let me sleep
until he comes near our own times and
then wake me-"
The friend at length reused him.
"Where are we?" asked North. sAt
the battle of La Hague, my lord"
20. my dear friend, you have woke
me century too sOonr'
One nj CHIT the House was in the worst
possible humor, and the debate became
savage. Every member seemed ready
to take offense. Lord North restored
good humor by short speech.
Zone member" he said, .sspoke of
me as that thing called Minister
To be sure" he continued, patting his
large stomach. Il am "a thing the
member. therefore, when he called me
"a thing, said what was true, and
could not be angry with him.
''But when he added that thing
called, Minister he called me that
thing which of all things he himself
wished most to be, and, therefore, l
took it as q compliment.
There was no standing out against
such good -humored wit, and the House
laughed heartily at the Minister'S ready
reply.-Touth's Companion.

Variety i'm Farming.

1t is the idea of many that any one
can learn to farm. Rut as there are so
many branches of farming any one of
which will require years of steady and
close application to master by the best
minds, it is deemed advisable for all
farmers to avoid undertaking too many
things. There are some vegetables.
grains and fruits which have been raised
SO long and are so well understood
that their production does not require
so much study and can be used profit
ably in making up variety on the
farm. And yet, these simplest things
require active minds and close attention
to business to produce profitably, and
great care and thought to sell to ad-
vantage.
But there are many things which re.
quire the undivided attention and study
of the most active minds. 1t will not
often prove a success if any man at
temptS to carry on two or more of them
at the same time. And while we would
advise variety in farming, the diversity
should be so selected that this one great
division shall not be neglected by the
care and absorbing attention of others.
The successful farmer is most gener-
ally specialist. 1t is not safe for
man to attempt to raise cattle, horses,
hogs and sheep for breeding purposes,
at the same time keep large number
of cows and run an extensive dairy, or
raise cane and have sugar mill, or 60
extensively into grain or raise hogs for
pork. This would be spreading too
wide, and many. if not all the enter
prises will suffer neglect One mans
capacity is not sufficient for all these
complicated branches of industry. Bet
ter way is for a man to make himself
q Specialist success in one branch.
Conquer it thoroughly. Nearly all
men who have made themselves emil
nent in the world have devoted their
lives to one branch of study or indus
try. There is scarcely branch of
farm work but is full enough for one
mind, if fully mastered and made sue
cess. And this is especially the case
with most of the new branches of farm
ing which have been introduced within
the last fifty years. If you will look
around it will be seen that previous to
that time it was not expected or re-
guired that farmer should be a man
of hard study as well as hard work.
But the new enterprises and plans of
farming require the fullest exercise of
both of these powers of man to keep
abreast of the push and energy of the
agricultural and commercial world,
both of which are now required to be
mastered to insure success.-Ioca State
Reuisfpr
