CONTROL OF FEELING.-It is some
times urged that, however RESPONSE
BILE we may be for deeds, we cannot
be held accountable for feelings, as
they come and go unbldden. Yet, if
it is true that every feeling is depend
ent for its continuance upon the ac-
tons which it prompts, the feeling
itself is at least Immediately under
our control. We cannot, it is true,
by an effort of the will at once expel
from the heart gust of passion, but
we can deny the angry utterances
that tremble on our lips. We cannot
suddenly kill a selfish desire. but we
can refuse to commit the unjust OF
unkinb actions that it prompts. We
cannot Immediately bannish curiosity
or love of gossip, but we can with
hold from them the food on which
they thrive. In the same way, if
worthy and honorable impulses are
weak within us, we can strengthen
them by following steadfastly that
course of conduct which they suggest
We can increase our sense of justice
by doing justly, our sympathetic feel
ings by tender and loving acts, oul
good temper by self-government.

ding operations were known to, if
not participated in, by O'Brien and
his head men. Sheriffs Jenness and
Norton went to the train and arrested
a man who cheated a Glover man out
of five dollars. The thief was ready
to come down literally when he found
that he was caught. The method of
stealing was to give back the wrong
change, to swap small for large bills,
bills for silver, or silver for bills, and
in making change to deceive and
cheat the party out of greater or
smaller sum. Our victim accommo-
dated the gentleman { p who was SELL
ing reserved seat tickets, by swapping
large bill for smaller money. When
the change was made the fellow re-
ceived four one-dollar bills for a
twenty, thinking he received four
fives.

From the Chicago Herald.
Now that it has been ascertained
that the cholera appeared in Eu
rope prescriptions are in demand
by correspondents, who write to
the editor as if he were personal
friend and family physician. For
more than 40 years what is known
as rThe Sun Cholera Medicine
has stood the test of experience as
the best remedy for looseness of
tho bowels ever yet devised. AS
was once vouched for by the New
York Journal Of Commerce, mo
one who has this by him and takes
it in time will ever have the chol-
era" Even when no cholera is
anticipated it is an excellent thing
for the ordinary summer complaints
collie, diarrhea, dysentery, &c,
and we have no hesitation in COM
mending it. Here it is: Take
equal parts of tincture of cayenne,
tincture of opium, tincture of rhu-
berb, essence Of peppermint and
spirits of camphor. Mix well.
Dose, Is to 80 drops in a wine
glass of water, according to age
and violence of the attack. Re
peat every Is or 20 minutes until
relief is obtained.

Protection fr0m EarlyFrOst
Exchange.

BANAAAESs
Almost every season we have an
early frost, which cuts off q large
quantity of immature fruit and
vegetables, to be generally follow
ed by several weeks of warm and
pleasant weather, and if some
means can be employed to bridge
over this season, pleasure and
profit will result. In the family
garden this is easier than in market
gardens; yet much may be done in
both cases. One of the best means
of protection is covering with som
good non-conducting material like
paper, or fine, dry hay or straw.
For small plants and those lying
near the ground, nothing is better
than perfectly dry hay or straw
For taller plants, papers are per
haps the best. They must often
be kept in place by tying, but care
must be taken that they do not
become wet, and that there are
two thicknesses between the plant
and the outside; for with a paper
resting on, or in close contact with
q leaf, it is as easily affected by
frost.

directly in front OF the trio, and
glanced -carcAingiy in the faces of

in the upturned c%ountenance Of the
old man too readily dctincd-a
look of weariness--an air, III fact,
of present poverty, that could not
be misunderstood by the group.
