The Big Wrestle.

I was not at the big wrestle between
Bill ARD and Ike Mccoy, and had heard
so many versions oft that one night,
while we were sitting around the camp
fire, insisted on hearing it from his
own lips. Said he, swell, gentlemen he
always accented the men, J my motto has
always been to never say die, as Gen'l

he put on a heap of airs, and strutted
around with his shirt.collar open clean
down to his waist, and his hat crooked up
on one side of his head, as sassy as
Confederate quartermaster. He took a
dram. and then stuffed himself full OF
fresh meat at dinner. Along in the
eyenin' it was norated around that Ike
was going to banter me for rassel, and
shore enuf he did. The boys were all up
for some fun, and Ike got on stump
and hollered outs 'I'll bet ten dollars l
can paster the length Of any man on the
ground, and I'll give Bill Arp five dollars
to take up the bet"
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1885-01-08

"Of course there was 20 getting around

blood up, and so, without waitin' for
ceremony, shucked myself and went in.
The boys was all powerfully excited, and
was a bettin' every dollar they could
raise, and Bob Moore, the feller bad
licked about year before, said he'd bet
twenty dollars to ten that Ike would
knock the breath outen me the first fall.

Girls Who are Useful.

The notion that girl, are too delicate to
be useful is limited to comparatively
small part of the globle. Throughout
Asia, Africa and in large portions even
of Europe and America, there prevails
an old belief that they are born to labor.
Ia Turkestau and on the Tartar steppes
the Kirghese Sultans and their daughters
and princesses, in whose veins flows the
blood of long lines of kings, still milk
the sheep, COWS and goats, and perform
the menial Offices. Of the household, as
the Sanscrit maidens did six thousand
years ago in the same localities. They
cook, take care of the smaller children
make garments, cure the skins of the
wild fowl, with the feathers on, for caps,
spin cotton, weave cloth and tan leather
by means of sour milk. In this delect-
able region the mothers wear rich attire
while the daughter goes in humber
weeds, like Cinderella. If there is a
piano the mother plays on it in the front
room of the tent, while the daughter
brews the koumiss, stews the mutton and
broils the camel chops in the back kitch.
en-. This is the benighted condition of
patriarchal people who adhere to nearly
absolete theory of filial duty. Similar
ideas prevail throughout India. China
and among the native tribes of Siberia,
who have been driven nothward by
aggressive neighhors. The Tungusian
girl gathers the snow, melts it, makes the
tea and soup, fish sews, and, being skilful
fh archery, helps to keep the larder sup
piled with game. The Yakut and Sem
ovede maidens, and all who dwell along
the Arctic ocean, help in summer to lay
up winter supplies, and in winter to per-
form all necessary domestic duties. The
.Abyssinian girl grinds corn in the simple
mills in use in that country. The Kafir
girl weaves baskets and draws water.
The girls in the other part of the dark
continent pulverize the grain, weave
mate, make earthern vessels, and are the
hatters of their tribe. The theories of
the tribes and nations of Asia and Africa
are shared blythe Indians of North and
South America, who compel the young
girls to learn the duties and hardships of
life at an early age.-Boston Transcript.

No wonder shirts are cheap. The
New York Herald has discovered a firm
in that city which gets shirts made at
two and half cents each. The maker,
g. Silesiap, with his wife and one helper,
worked almost night and day from
November 26 to December 9, and during
that time made POI shirts, for which they
received the muni6cent SUM of $7.75 or
deduct the car fares in taking the shirts
to the employers, $653 God help the
poor.
The Rev. R. Heber Newton, Of
New York, has succeeded in causing
quite a futter in religious circles. In a,
recent sermon DR.. Newton boldly ques.
toned the sanity of Christ. He said
that the idealist commanded attention
only 30 long as he gave no cause to doubt
his sanity. He should be followed only
when there was no mistrust that he had
not lost his way in the clouds. Christ,
the prince of idealists, DR.. Newton said,
might have lost his head; in his imagin.
ings his mind might have become con-
fused and his feet lifted from the
ground. DR.. Newton was accused of
6eterodoxy year ago because be denied
the divine authorship ofthe Bible. 1t is
believed that be will now be expelled
