Henry Wizards Romance.

After reporting what was to be seen
during the first attack on Charleston,
S. c., Henry Willard came North and
made the acquaintance of William
Lloyd Garrison and was taken to that
gentleman home in Boston and intro
duced to the Garrison household as
hero and strong anti-slavery advocate.
Here the young man saw Miss Fanny
Garrison, a beautiful young lady, who
was about completing her education in
Boston seminary. She was cons;d-
cred one OF the bellies of Boston society,
was patriotic, bright, and, though quite
young, thoroughly understood the
causes which led to the breach between
the North and South. Mr.. Willard
passed many hours in conversation with
the enthusiastic maiden before he again
ST ted for the front Her vivacious
manner and winning ways had driven
from his memory the early resolutions
made before he sought his fortune on
this side of the Atlantic, and the modest
desire for little cote in sunny France
with the dark-eyed girl who had first in
spired him with the tender sentiments
of love, as his wife. Never in all his
travels in Europe or in any portion of
the West and South-for by this time
Willard had seen much of the world
had he come in contact with soul
which had so thoroughly charmed him.
He returned to the South, fully deter
mined to keep her foremost. in his men,
DRY. When, later on, malarial fever
contracted in the Southern swamps
forced him again to return North he was
assisted back to health by the tender
sympathies and cheering smiles of the
beautf full Boston girl. Then he declared
his love both to the daughter and pa
rents, and a little later he led her TO
the altar. Since his marriage Mr.. Viii
lard's life has been one of unusual sue
cess.
To-day the once poor but ambitious
emigrant youth may be found surround
ed by lovely family of children in a
grand old mansion bordered by parks
and lawns on the banks overlookingthe
Hudson, near this city. The beautiful
young Eastern girl is just as charming
as ever.-N Y. Morning journal.

A subscriber at Superior, Neb., writes
us to give an article upon this topic.
and, although we have often discussed
1t, yet we must ran the risk of some
repetition, that all our widely distribute
ed readers may find the instruction their
specialties require. Our correspondent
Is in Nuckolls County, which lies along
the Northern border of Kansas, and is a
fine grazing county, having nutritious
pasturage, where sheep should thrive
finely, and be in proper condition at the
beginning of cold weather for winter
fattening for market. When drafts are
to be made from flock for fattening in
winter, only the best feeders should be
selected. Thin, unthrifty sheep should
always be started by extra feeding upon
pasture, and this should be done early
in fall. The extra food will then have
q much greater effect than in cold
weather.
When the fattening sheep have been
selected, they should be sheltered in
corrals. The best results from feeding
can never be had in the open air during
a cold winter, or in storms. Great regu-
larity in feeding and uniform ration
must be observed, If steady progress is
to be made.
Success in fattening sheep for market
depends very largely upon the sheep to
be fed, and therefore the exercise of the
best Judgment in the selections is most
important. Our correspondent has, no
doubt, large numbers of sheep to select
from, which will give him the best facil-
ity for choosing successful feeders. It
Is very important for regular feeders of
sheep for market to establish a reputa-
ton for sending only the best fattened
sheep to market. This reputation gives
q standard value to his brand, greatly
facilitates sales, secures top prices, and
decidedly adds to the profits of the bust
ness.
Having selected the sheep for feed
ing, and provided proper shelter. we
must determine the method of feeding
for market. The details Of this will de.
pend somewhat upon the length of time
the locality has been settled, whether
the fodder consists of straw or hay.
With plenty OF good hay, of cultivated
or wild grasses, corn alone may be sue
eeessfully used as the grain food. The
hay will supply the lack of albuminoids
IN the corn. One pound to one and
half pounds of corn, according to size
of the sheep, win be required, with
what hay they will eat clean. This
corn ration should be divided, half
given in the morning, and the other at
four p m.
If the feeder has good troughs. the
best way is to spread q thin layer of
hay in the bottom of the trough, and
then spread the corn on this. so that
the sheep will eat some of the hay with
the corn; this will cause most of the
corn to be remasticated with the end.
If wheat bran and middlings are cheap
err than corn, then feed one-half pound
Of these with one pound of corn.

JUPrTER's LoTTERY.-It is said that
the God Jupiter once made a lottery
in heaven and allowed both mortals
and gods to hold tickets. The grand
prize was wisdom, and Minerva held
the winning card. This caused trou-
bic among the mortals, and Jupiter,
to appease them, offered folly as a
second prize, which they all drew,
and were highly pleased with it.
Ever since that time folly has been
held in high estimation by mortals.
If they wish to be noted for wisdom
they should buy PERUNA of the near

rious ailments which are known to
humanity. Thousands are learning
wisdom in this regard, and are loud

Co.'s american Newspaper Directory, now in
press, it appears that the newspapers and pc
rlodicals of all kinds at present issued in the
United States and Canada reach a grand total
of 1902. This is q net gain of precisely geo
during the last twelve months. and exhibits an
increase Of 5,G1S over the total number pub
llshed just ten years since. The increase in
1874 over the total for 1878 was 1913. During
the past ycarthe dailics have increased from
1.13S to 1854: the wceklies from 9.O63 to TO-
Q2S a; and the monthlics from 1.OSl to 1,499.
The greatest increase is in the Western States.
Illinois, for instance, now shows 1908 papers

souri, issues G04 instead of the 523 reported in
1888. Other leading Western States also exhibit
