An Afflicted Family,
Dickey County Leader.


Last week we noticed the death of
Girtie, the oldest daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. L. w. Millham, of Hudson. who
died Sunday, Dec. 1e, of diphtheria Her
death Mas followed by that of Albert
W., aged ii, on the 10Th, and on the
Goth, by Bessie E., aged 8. AS though
this was not ailliction enough for one
family, four more passed away on Fri
day, Louis, aged l3, Millie, 8, Walter, Z,
and Daisy, 3 years old, leaving only
baby Flora, Is months old. The loss of
seven children of one family in six
days, is one of the saddest cases it has
ever been our lot to chronicle, and not
only the people of Hudson, but those of
Ellendale and the country at large. ex-
tend the deepest sympathy to the be-
reaved parents. a nicer family than
that OF Mr.. Millham's is not often met
with, the children all being rugged and
robust, smart and amiable, and for
death to enter such a household and
take away seven of its members Is sad
indeed. Critic, the Oldest, was buried
on Monday. The other six lay dead in
the house Friday, and all We're buried
IN one grave Sunday, Dec. 23d.

at the office without betraying IN the

sad liar.
She can rumple up $4,000 worth OF

She can-but what's the use! A
woman can do everything and anything
and do it well. She can do more in a
minute than man can do in an hour,
and do it better. She can make the
alleged lords of creation bow down to
her own sweet will, and they will never
know it. Yes, a woman can do every
thing with but one exception; she can
not climb n tree

ten by twelve on his quarter section,
and the next year it had grown into a
large and pleasant farm house with
green blinds and a veranda attached.
His pump had grown into a Windmill,

BETTER THAN EVER.
The Inter Ocean for 1854.

More new features have been intro
duced in The Weekly Inter Ocean in
the last twelve months than in any
other paper published in this country
Retaining all the old specialties and
deuartments, the publishers have added
illustrated biographical sketches OF per-
sons prominently before the public at
date of publication; illustrated articles
on important historical and current
events, or in elucidation of antiquarian
research, or interesting engineering and
mechanical problems; cable letters from
London covering the field of EUROPEAN
news for each week; special contribu-
tions devoted to "reminiscences of army
and political life; and new series of
articles given up largely to personal
gossip and recolections of prominent lit
erary people.
The Inter Ocean will remain uneom-
promisingly Republican; will maintain
it's present attitude on the question of
protecting American industries; will
continue to devote spectral attention to
trade, transportation, and economic
questions; will retain the departments
of The Curiosity Shop "a current ency-
clopedia of curious, interesting, and
valuable information called out by in
quries of subscribers); The Woman's
Kingdom devoted to the progressive
movements in which women are in
terested). The Farm and Home Cover
ing topics of special interest to farmers.
their wives, and their children(; The
Veterinary containing answers to ques-
tions as to the treatment of horses, cat
tie, and other animals by one of the
best vetinary surgeons in the West);
and Complications taking in puzzles,
enigmas, ,conundrums, etc.. all of which
are peculiar to the paper; will give as
much space as hitherto to serial and
short stories, original and selected Sc
lected sketches and poems, and with
increased facilities for news-gatherlng
in the shape of special wires to New
York and Washington, and experienced
correspondents well placed at home and
abroad, will more than maintain its
high standard for enterprise and accu-
racy in all departments of news.

been made in The Weekly Inter Ocean,
the price has been reduced to One Dollar
Per Year, postage included. This puts
a large eight-page there are frequently

One Way to Bring Up Children.

Laugh at their faults.
Encourage theil faults. o.
{ Give them their own way.
Tell them petty untruths.
Brighten them with frowns.
Give them what they cry for.
Yell ut the top of your voice to them.
Never encourage their efforts to do
better:
EAlways take their part against their
teachers.
Make them as mnch afraid OF you
as possible.
Never take any notice of their child
ish sorrows.
Fly into a passion with them several
times a day.
Punish them if they break some tri-
lle by accident.
Don't be foolish enough to cute in
to their games.
When they ask for information tell
them to shut up.
Don't bother yourself about whose
house they go IN.
Tell them that the streets are the
best place to play.
Don't bavc any toys or playthings
tOccnI obo,,t tho bnI,ca
Don't trouble inviting their COM
panions to your home.
Try to forget as much as possible that
you were oEce young yourself.
Tell them all the lies you can, and
half kill them when they tell you one.
When they tell you they won't do a
thing laugh at it.
When they fall and hurt themselves
scold them for their awkwardness.
Give them expensive tritles to play
with, and punish them if they should
break them.
Don't get in the habit of kissing them
good night; If YOU should happen to
die they'd be mighty lonesome without
it.
Tell them it is a sin to be dishonest,
but if they bring back too much change
firm the grocer's, keep it and tell them
to say nothing about it.
Let them sleep until you have gone
to work in the morning, and have them
put to bed before you get home at
night, to avoid becoming too intimately
acquainted with them.
Threaten to tell their father and get
them punished for every blessed thing
they do. SO that by degrees they will
come to the conclusion that father is
some sort of threshing machine.

Rcd and Green Sunsets.

This year will be memorable in me-
teorological annals for its solar appara-
tion. The tirery red sunsets recently
seen in various parts of the United
States occurred in England on the 9th
ult, and on September End at Port
Spain, Trinidad Island. A correspond
ent of nature, writing from Trinidad,
says: After dark we thought there
was fire in the town from the bright
redness Of the heavens"
Still more remarkable phenomenon
is the "green sun" witnessed at Madras.
and other places in the East Indies in
September and in this city on Sunday.
Prof. Niche Smith, of Madras, de-
seribes it. as it was seen from the Sth
10 the l4th, as a bright green sun at
sunrise and sunset, appearing as ray
less globe, at which you could easily
look, and yet SO sharply defined that
sun spots could well be seen with the
naked eye. Six days earlier the same
dlscoloration Of the sun was observed
.atBarinus, Venezuela. The extremely
rare phenomenon of a "green sun " has
not been recorded, we believe, since
1928, when Bishop Heber, on VOYAGE
to India, reported surprisingly beau
fiful exhibition near the line, of ..large
tracts of pale, translucent green, such
as have never before seen except in a
prism, and surprising every effect of
paint or glass or gem"
These varied "red and green " sun
tints, extending from the tropics to the
middle attitudes, are doubtless due to
an excess of evaporation in the northern
hemisphere, especially from the oceanic
surface. The observers of the "grecu
sun" both in Venezuela and India
clearly trace it to the sunlight passing
through aerial strata dcnseiy charged
with aqueous vapor probably not fro
zen), while the observer of the "deep
red English cloud-glow distinctly noted
that it was reflected from very high
cirrus clovds, consisting of ice spicules.
Taken in connection with the high tenn
peratures which have recently pre-
vailed, the phenomenon is of extraordi-
nary interest, not onIy as Indicating
exceptional activity of the solar fires.
but as probably foreshadowins for 1884
more moderate seasons than those of
1883.
