A PazzIed Church Clerk.

A colored brother removing from
Coweta to Meriwether carried along
his church letter. Settling near Rocky
Mount he concluded to become a
member at Bethel, colored church
near him. 1t 30 happened that in
the same pocket in which reposed the
certificate Of church membership was
also deposited last years gaanc note.
In handing in his letter to the church
the brother made mistake and gave
his guano note instead. The church
clerk not being very good reader,
never detected the error until several
months afterwards. Being at a loss
what to do about the matter, be call.
ed upon a learned white brother in
the settlement for advice. The white
man counseled that the matter be al.
lowed to stand, saying that gnano
note was more binding than anything
else in the world. 1t forbid him even
to take homestead against his re-
ligion, and if one lived up to the
notes requirements, he thought the
church ought not to complain. So
the guano paper entities the colored
applicant to full membership at Bethel.

The Hon. John Kelly, the head and
front of Tammany Hall, a man of
strict integrity, an indefatigable work.
er, early at his Office, late to leave, so
burdened with business that regular
meals were seldom known by him,
with mind in constant tension aud
energies steadily strained, finally
broke down.
The wonder is that he did not SOON
er give way. An honest man in all
things else, he acted unfairly with
his physical resources. He was ever
drawing upon this bank without ever
depositing col!a' al. The account
oVerdrawn, the bank snspends and
both are now in the hands Of medical
receivers.
1t is not work that kills men. 1t
is ilregularity of habits and mental
worry. No man in good health frets
at his work. Bye and bye when the
bank of vigor suspends, these men
will wonder how it all happened, and
they will keep wondering until their
diving day unless, perchance, some
candid physician or interested friend
will point out to them how by irregu-
larity, by excessive mental effort, by
constant worry and fret, by plunging
in deeper than they had a right to go,
they have produced that loss of ner-
vous energy which almost invariably
expresses itself in a deranged condi-
tion of the kidneys and liver, for it
is well known fact that the poison
which the kidneys and liver should
remove from the blood, if left therein,
soon knocks the life out the strong
eat and most vigorous man or woman.
Daily building up of these vital or
g4ns by so wonderful and highly re.
puted specific as Warmers safe cure,
is The only guarantee that our busi'
ness men can have that their strength
will be equal to the labors daily put
upon them.
Mr.. Kelly has nervous dyspepsia,

case should be warning to others

Daughter. Son.

OouSh1SA' N'
The aawbuck arrangement is rather
difficult of solution. When the Wild
over married the daughter he became
father in.law to the widow, who was
his daughter in law; or, in other
words, was father.in lew to his own
molher.in law. Do you grasp? His
wife became the step mother Of her
son.in.law, who was in fact her half
brother, being the full son Of his ia.
ther, her husband. The son and wild
ow, who married without the aid Of
net, caused complication some
what like the following:
When the son married the widow
he became the father in law Of his
own father, because his wife was his
fathers wife's mother. (Would yor
like Whit Of the smelling salts?)
By this last marriage the son became
the step.father Of his step mother,
who was his step daughter. Touch
ing the widow, she is the mother Of
her daughter and is also the daughter
in.law Of her daughter, who SO re-.
Gently became her mother in law.
The widow is likewise the daugh

son became tie son in,law Of her
mother, for the reason that she was
the wife of HE father. When the son
married the widow he became the
father of his fathers wife, his half
sister, his own daughter, because she
was the daughter Of his own wife.
(Are you still alive , Referring to
the old man for a few minutes, it
would seem that when he married the
daughter he became his sons wife's
son in law, that lady, it must not be
forgotten, being his daughterin law,
although the mother of his wife.
The fathers wife, as step mother to
his children, was, therefore, step

the latter being the son Of her hus-

LOVERS.

We have been lovers for forty years.
o dear cheeks faded and wet with tears.
What an eloquent story of love ye tell
Your roses are dead. yet I love you well.
o pale brow shrined in soft. silvery aair,
Crowned with life's sorrow, and lined with
care
Let me read by the light of the stars above
These dear, dear records of faithful love.
Ah, fond eyes of my own true wifel
Ye have shown 30 clear through my chequ.
cred life,
Ye have shed such JOY on its thorny way,
That ! cannot think ye are dim to-day.
Worn little hands that have toiled so long,
Patient and loving, and brave and strong
Ye will never tire, ye will never rest,
Until ye are crossed onmy darling's breast
o warm heart throbbing 80 close to mine
Time only strengthens such love as thine,
And proves that the holiest love doth last,
When summer and beauty and youth are
past, The Qasiper.

Liks General Grant, the first Ma
poleon died of cancer. In his Gaze
the cancer was in the stomach instead
of the throat. It caused him much
ss7erer pain than Grant suffered. To.
wards the Last he could not digest bis
food. He was tormented by con,
stant thirst. His pulse beat with 9
fsyerish quickness. He improved,
grew worse, and had all the hope. de-
preston and despair that marked
Grants illness. Unlike the American
soldier he did not retain his mental
faculties to the last. The circum'
stseess we're different. Napoleon was
a vanquished man, a prisoner, desert
ed by his wife, and surrounded only
by the members OF his military fami-
ly. His last words referred to his
son and the army. Grant not only
suffered less. but his last hours we're
frightened by thousand loving
words and tributes from wife and
children, old army comrades, his
former foes, and the most distinguish
ed men Of the world. So, in certain
sense, it may be said that Grant was
fortunate in the manner Of his death.

The Thorn in His Side.

A letter of the Rev. John Wesley
addressed to his wife has been re-
Gently published as great curiosity.
1t is dated eight years after his mar
riage, and elaborately recapitulates
"the terrestrial hell" ofhis family rela.
tioas. Alas years of age he welded
widow Of Al, who had fortune Of
$4,000, considerable one in those
days. The Rev. L. Tyler, his bio.
grapher, says that this marriage "was
in high degree an act of folly, and,
properly enough, to the end Of life
both of them were mad, to suffer a
serious penalty. He got rid Of her,
after many tribulations, but she made
him miserable for so years. Both
lived to a great age, in spite of their
infelictiy, Wesley being IS at the
time Of his dissolution. From the let.
ter of Wesley to his spouse, we gather
that she thwarted him necessarily
and in all things. She showed his
private letters to strangers. She took
every course to sour him and kill af-
fection. He was constantly reminded
that her money paid for things, and
that he was only a second fiddle. He
could not command the servants or
invite his nearest relations to the
house. He was suspected and watched
perpetually, so much so as to become
prisoner in his own castle, so.called.
His effects were stolen, sermons as
we'll as money. His gentle nature
was put upon the rack by his wife'a
abuse of the menials in her employ,
language being ueed to them that
would shame fshwife. She talked
behind his back disparagingly, elan.
dered and lied about him, "breaking
out into foul unmannerly language"
Wesley, in his letter, advised her
against these things "in fear of God
and tender love of her soul, as an af
fectionate husband" but his counsel
was vain and impotent Ile must
have had sturdy constitution as we'll
as much grace of God to live to be
nearly ninety years Of age under such
proyocation.
