are now pending in the patent Office at
Washington, and which are now being man.
ufactured in this city. The articles are a
dish-washer, clotbes-line stretcher, and SINH
lar articles, and all betrsy much ingenuity.
Mr.. Pelton is also the inventor OF a low
down binder, for which the patents are now
pending. The Improvement lies 10 the joint
which connects the cutter-bar with the ma
chine. The improvement is Of immense
value, but it is understood that the invention
is claimed by another large reaper firm. II
the patent is awarded 10 Pelton, it is said
that this firm is willing to give $4,000 and
royalty tor the use of it in making low
down binder. Pellon's machine has attracted
considerable attention from reaper msnuiac-
turers throughout the country, and number OF
the more prominent have sent mer TO examine
it. If a patent is awarded the young in
ventor for his improvement. he may be able
TO make fortune out of it. Mr.. Pelton is
clean-shsven, boyish-looking, with clear blue
eyes and thoughtful air. He probably has
a future before him as an inventor, il he is
as industrious in the future As he has been
in the past.

1t is not definitely settled as yet, whether
the Springfield teachers will go on their pro-

intended to 60 in the winter holidays, but
hearing such discouraging accounts of the in

As the dIscouraging reports continue how

The case of Lyman Olds, who was taken to
the asylum last week, is peculiar, to say the
least. His mind seems more than ordinarily
bright, but wanders from subject to subject
in the most hopeless manner
had long talk with him at the depot before
the train arrived to take him to DAYTON
HIS mind seemed TO wander on newspaper
subjects especially. Among other things he
made the following extraordinary statement
at is not generally known" said he, "that
Whitelaw Reid now editor OF the New York
Tribune was not the real author OF that
wonderful account of the battle of Plttsburg
Landing which was signed agate" and
which gave him his fame. That letter | saw
written with my own eyes by Rev. Geo. Full
lerton, formerly pastor of a church in this
city, and now minister in a Pennsylvania
town. Mr.. Fullerton sat down after the
battle and wrote the account which made
Reid famous" Mr. Olds who is an old sold
ier and was all through the war then
narrated in the most minute and
cIrcumstantisl manner when and where
the letter was written, and every fact con-
nected with it. Close questioning failed to
shake his story in the minutest particular.
This same subject was a mOoted question in
the newspapers some time ago it will be re-
membered, and Mr.. Olds was prominent in
the discussion at that time. His other two
hobbies are that the real name of Allen o.
Myers, the erratic Democratic state.m man, is
Allen Olds Myers, and that he (OldsI has the
Ohio Legislature under his thumb. When
George Alfred Townsend ("Gsth") was here
Olds hunted him up at the Arcade Hotel, de-
claring that he and Gath had been bosom
friends at Washington. He actually obt ined
.'Gsth's" autograph, but failed in inducing
the great correspondent to fill up four sides of
the New York Tribune with sensational mat
ter which Olds desired TO furnish him. The
mslady will easily yield to treatment, it is
thought.

THE OLD WIFE.

|
THE OLD WIFE.
BY the bed the old man, waiting, sat in vigil
sad and tender,
Where his aged wife lay dying; and the
twilight shadows brown,
Slowly from the wall and window chased
the sunsets golden splendor,
Going down.
as 1t nights' she whispered, waking Tor
her spirit seemed to hover
Lost between the next worlds sunrise and
the bedtime cares of thsJ
And the old man, weak and fearful, tremb
ling IA he bent above her,
Answered, "Yes."
"Arethe children in ?" she asked him. Could
he tell herr All the treasures
Of their household lay in silence many
years beneath the snow;
But the heart was with them living, back
among her tolls and pleasures,
Long ago.
And again she called at dew.fsll, in the sweet
old summer weather,
"Where is little Charley, fatherp Frank
and Robert--have they come ?"
"fhey are safe" the old man faltered-"all
the children are together,
Safe at home |"
Then he murmured gentle soothings, but his
grief grew strong and stronger,
Till it choked and stilled him, as he held
and kissed her wrnkled hand
For her soul, far out Of hearing, could his
iondest words no longer
Understand.
Still the pale lips stammered questions,
lullabies and broken verses,
Nursery prattle-all the language of
mothers loving deeds,
While the midnight round the mourner, left
to sorrows bitter mercies,
Wrapped in weeds
There was stiffness on the pllow--and the
old man listened lonely,
Till they led him from the chamber, with
the burden on his breast,
For the wife Of seventy years, his manhood's
early love and only,
Lay at rest.
"Fare.you.wellW he sobbed, my Sarah
you will meet the babes before me-
IT'S little while, for neither can the part.
ing long abide,
And you'll call and see me soon, know,
and Heaven will restore me
To your side"
1t was even so, The springtime in the step
of winter treading,
Scarcely shed its orchard blossoms ere the
old man closed his eyes,
And they buried him by Sarah--and they
had their diamond wedding
In the skies.

Changing the Style of Noses.

1t appears that q Frenchman invented
a machine some years ago for changing
the style Of noses, by which it is said he
amassed quite fortune. A represen-
tative of the Philadelphia Times re-
Gently interviewed a surgeon on the
subject and learned the following:
"Thc nose is simply piece Of carti-
lage, and its shape can be changed
entirely with much ease. Many people
are troubled with noses whose shapes do
not please their owners or their owners
friends The French machine consists
of small shell in two parts, hinged to-
gesher. It is made Of iron, japanned
or enameled. 1t is in shape inside that
of perfectly moulded nose, according
to the type of the features of the wearer.
Thus you can obtain Roman, Grecian,
retrouse, aquiline, or any other shape
you desire, To apply the instrument,
the nose is first bathed in warm water
at bedtime and thoroughly heated and
softened. Then it is we'll CREASED with
olive oil, glycerine, vaseline, or other
oily substance. Finally the nose i'm
proven is fixed on and the side clasped
together, and the wearer keeps il on all
night, taking care in the morning TO
wash in cold water only. It is rather
painful process at first, but after the first
two or three applications Of the improver
there is no more trouble. In about
month the nose begins to take its new
shape, and at the end Of from eight to
ten weeks the alteration is said to be-
perfect and permanent, that is, until the
patient becomes tired Of that particular
shape and is DESTROYS of having another,
when the same operation with another
instrument is applied | have known

their noses four or five times in as many

The Genuine Tar.Heel kiss.

Up the perfume-sweet avenue of love
and under the roseate archway Of Hymen
thoy had passed into the joy-lit realms
of higher and holier existence where
soul meets soul on waves ofelastic feeling,
and hearts touch hearts through the
blended channel of lips in rapture linked.
They had just been made man and wife
and their souls must meet and "swap

how can we describe that osculatory per-
formance 1t was not spasmodic kiss,
like a stopper flying out Of champagne
bottle; or stationary kiss, like a COW

accounts of the township trustees. They were
all present. From the reports presented every
thing to be correct with the exception of the
accounts of Shipley, of Gregg township though
English, of Clay, madea badly botched-up report.
He now acknowledges having issued some war
rants to Pollard, with whom he has had consid
cradle dealings, but claims he has goods so show
for all he has issued. If any more than these
are out he denounces them as forgeries. If any
are out they will, in due time turn up, and in
the meantime developments will have to be
awaited Shipley, the Gregg township trustee,
