TrOtters VS.. PAGERS.
Chicqqo Journal.

I. Individual trotters of the frst-class
have as yet sold for more money than
any PAGER. But allow me to predict that
the time will come when a firSt-clasS
PAGER will bring as much as a trotter of
the same degree of merit. You over
hear men talking nowadays about at
tending meeting, many of whom can
not leave their business mole than one
day perhaps, and nine out of ten of this
class will ask, "What day do the PAGERS
go? | want to see the side-wheelers.
Any day at race meeting where a
large field of PAGERS are advertised to
start there will be good attendance.
You can no longer ignore the PAGER, he
is bound to come to the front; the
public demand it.
There have been more genuine sur
prises in the pacing races of the last
two years than in any other. The gen.
eral verdict is, "No man can pick a
winner at pacing race" Some men
would sooner own fast PAGER than be
President of the United States, in so
fsF, as fApo and money .aue caneernedv
very scarce. can now name num-
Der who can almost break a watch with
their speed, number yet to hear from
not yet distinguished.
A PAGER moves side at time, or
the fore and hind legs of each side of
the animal move simultaneously. All
that is necessary is to have level head
and disposition to ego on" without
which no horse is worth dollar as a
race-horse. He should never be allow
ed to trot. A double gated PAGER is
fraud aud a delusion. The time is not
far distant when some PAGER will do
mile in two minutes. And, moreover,
l believe there will appear on the turf
within the next three years double
team of PAGERS that will wipe out all
previous records, any way of going; in
other words, no running mate to be
employed. They must be handled by
good men, and have the brain power
requisite to accomplish it.

There are some who object to wash
ing the face often, especially with soap,
thinking this an injury to the complex
ion. But those who have made spe-
cialty of skin diseases say no part of
the body needs soap so much that the
face, being constantly exposed to dust,
collects so much, it is not enough to
wash in clear water. They say if soap
makes the face shiny, as so many claim,
it only shows that it is the more need
ed, and that the work of drying after
the bath has not been properly per-
formed. The face, however, should
not be wet Immediately before or after
going out. Its most thorough ablution
should be performed at night, before
going to bed, and the following method
should be observed in the process /:
Fill a basin with soft, warm water,
lather a medium sized sponge with
good soap, and wash the face carefully.
Then take fresh water, without soap,
and wash again with the hands, and
rub thoroughly with Turkish or crash
towel until the face is dry and tingling.
This will do much towards improving
and preserving the complexion; and
the little vexatious black spots, call
ed "fesh worms" will usually disappear
after time, if it is persevered in.

A young married couple went to
make their home in a strange city,
Selecting a church of their own de-
nomination, the first Sunday found
them unnoticed by the ushers, timidly
making their way down the long aisle.
Uninvited, they entered pew, and
were beginning to feel somewhat COM
Portable, when naughty, middle-aged
lady and her daughter came bustling
in. By their looks and whispered con-
versation the strangers felt that they
were unwelcome guests, and the sooth-
ing hymns and eloquent sermon brought
them no restful comfort. Instead of
being strengthened and helped they
carried to their home wounded, disaf-
fected spirits, and the next Sunday
they turned aside to worship in a more
humble spirit, where they found more

The Discipline of Sorrow.

1t is one of the great errors of little
men to suppose that man can be per-
fected without grief. This world would
be utterly worthless without evil and
sin. 1t would be no place for man, or,
any moral agent. Choosing between
character. Suffering for the misdeeds
of others is the necessary bond of
brotherhood for the race. Law, gov
ernment, society, all depend upon the
brotherhood of Joy and sorrow. The
heart that has never been broken is not
half heart. Broken by ones own or
brothers anguish. The man without
sympathy is not fit to live. This world
of sin and sorrow is no place for him.
The man that cannot comprehend this,
is vet to be educated. He has no con-
ception of the forces that train soul.
He knows not how divine men are
made. What would music be without
minor strains? What could art do with
out passion ? We shall decide how
worlds are built, and how they could
be made in wiser way? IngerSoll is
ashamed of his fellowmen for believing
| in a God who allows so much evil and
sorrow in the world. He seems to
think he could have done better at
world building, and could manage its
affairs better than they are now con-
Quoted. Sin and sorrow are the neceS-
sary means of developing character in
national beings. They are to be ac-
cepted, and we are to get the victory
over them and not be crushed by them.
The universal search for happiness, as
'our beings end and aim,' is through
sorrow and pain, the results of wrong
doing. And we attain the bliss we
seek, helped by pain, and right doing
Thus, we get the victory over the
world, and pluck the fruit of joy from
the midst of the thorns of grief.

the following direction 'How to tell
woman's age:'
Ask some other woman.
Few grandmothers are less than 2t
off the stage.
| Brunettes as a rule look older thar
blondes of the same age.
Slenderness is supposed to be girlisf
unless it produces wrinkles.
An unmarried woman is girl unit
she is 40. After that she is an olc
maid.
If woman has false teeth and plum
pers it is safe to put her down as owe
20.
Ask how old she is and multiply tn
answer by two. If she is an actres
multiply it by four.
Fat increases the apparent age of
! woman under IS years and lessons

ToWsoNToWN, Md, SATURDAY, April. 25, 1885,
An Old PrOverb.

Pouting, my darling, because it rains
And flowers droop and the rain is falling,
And drops are blurring the window panes
And moaning wind through the lane is calling
Crying and wishing the sky was clear,
And roses again on the lattice twining
All, well, remember, my foolish dear,
'Tis easy to laugh when the sun is shining p
When the world is bright and fair and gay,
And glad birds sing in the fair June weather,
And summer is gathering, night and day,
Her golden chalice of sweets together;
When blue seas answer the sky above,
And bright stars follow the days declining,
Why, then, tis no merit to smile, my love;
'Tis easy to laugh when the sun is shining p
But this is the time the heart to test,
When winter is near and storms are bowling,
And the earth from under her frozen vest
Looks up at the sad sky mute and scowling,
The brave little spirit should rise to meet
The seasons gloom and the days repining;
And this is the time to be glad, for, sweet,
'Tis easy to laugh when the sun is shining !"

A REMARKABLE CURE.-I was suffering with a
cough and pain in my side for the past two years
and grew extremely weak. During that time 1
had several physicians attending me, but deriving
no benefit from theirtreatment. They pronounced

Valentine Cards.


Messrs. L. Prang & Co., have issued some
very handsome cards, especially for St. valen-
tines Day. The designs are varied, but all
are appropriate for the purpose for which the
cards are intended. One of the handsomest is
q child's face set in frame of silver. There
are numerous flower pieces, all of them pretty
and attractive. Among the well known ar
lists who have contributed the designs are
MISS L. u. Cousins, Mrs. o. e. Whitney, Mrs.
MARY Y. Post, f. w. Freer, Will III. Low and
". d. Gibson. Especially noticeable among
the cards are two designs by Mr.. Hamilton
Gibson, In which birds and sunny blossoms are
living IN the very ideal of love. The same
idea, expressed in many ways, calls for special
pleading at this season, and we find it elo
quently expressed by many of the most popu-
lar artists and designers. Walter Satteriee,
who always meets public taste, conceives il in
designs wherein little children figure largely,
1t IS idle talk of the waning Of interest in val
entlnes. The old truth yet proclaims itself in
new guise, and we are all the slaves Of the cod
OF love In some shape or other.
