A Tough Customer.


Let me tell you tale that once was told to me,
And although it was told to me in prose at the
time.
/ will give it a metrcal dressing, and see
If the story will lose any reason by rhyme.
There came to a store in the village one day
long and lank stranger in homespun ar
rayed;
And "Good mornin'," said he in difiident
way,
''Tve jes' come up to town for bit of a trade.''
The proprietor nodded and cheerfully spoke:
s'Wen, what can do for you, neighbor, and
how?"
"Wal, one of wife's knittin' needles ez broke,
An she wants to git one-how much be
they now?" e
'"They're two cents apiece" 'Wal say, Mister,
look here;
I've got fresh egg, an my wife to me,
Swap the egg for the needle'-it seems bit
But the things about EVENTS big 'un yer
see."
Said the store keeper presently. 'weI, don't
He laid down the needle and put the egg by
When the countryman blurted out, "Ain't yer
inclined
To treat a new customer?-fact is I'm dry"
Though staggered little, it must be confessed,
Bv the "customer" coming it rather too free;
Yet smiingly granting the modest request,
The dealer responded, ''Well, what shall it
be?"
.Wal, drop of Madairy reckon 'ul pass;
I've been used to that, see, ever since was
born.'
The store keeper handed bottle and glass,
Aud his customer poured out generous horn.
For moment he eyed the gratuitous dram
With the air of man who must something
resign,
Then blandly remarked, "Do you know thatI
Very partial to mixing an egg in my wine?"
'Oh, well, let us finish this matter beg;
You're very particular, though, must say
The storekeeper muttered and handed an egg
The identical one he had taken in pay.
On the rim of the tumbler the man broke the
she'll
''It's certainly handsome the way yer treat
folk;
He opened it deftly, and plumply it fell
With splash, and no wonder-it held double
yolk!
The customer saw and long breath he drew
"Look, Mister, that egg has two yolks, de-
clare
Instead of one needle I've paid we fer two
So hand me another an then Wen be square!''

:sProve it!" grimly retorted his
father-in-law. "You may have your
company this afternoon, Jennie," he
continued, after pause, "but it will
be your last party in my house. l
shall send for Farmer Hayes, and we
shall enjoy our pipes together this
evening, in the best parlor, as we did
before you were married. AS for you,
Robert, you havn't provided a home
for Jennie at present but you'll have
to do so now. There's a cottage to
let in the village, which think will
suit you. A month to-day / shall ex-
pect you to clear from my house
and you needn't think that / shall
do any more for you. What | mean
TO give yoli-lf l give you anything
at all-you'll have to wait for till
I'm dead. No more cutting down my
favorite fruit trees-or selling my
cows-or making me sit in the kitch-
en- when you've got fine company.
I'll send for my sister Jane, and she
shall have home with me as long as
she lives"
Jane, the sister, came to live at
the farmhouse, and passed away at
the advanced age of eighty-six. Mr..
johnson lived ten years after her, re-
tanning all his faculties to the last,
and died in his ninety-ninth year.
Jennie and her husband had to
work very hard to bring up their
large family respectfully. Roberts
hair was silvery white, and Jennie's
thickly streaked with gray, and sons
and daughters were men and women,
when the formerly ungrateful couple
were again allowed to take possession
of the old farm house.

THE COUNTRY EDITOR.

The country editor has hard road
to travel. He is the reporter, book
keeper, business manager, collector,
mechanical-superintendent, mailing
machine, and soliciting agent of the
establishment. His work is hard, his
receipts are small and his creditors
numerous. In small town an edit
or has to steer his course so as to
avoid giving offence to different cir
cles of society, the religious demon
strations, the business community
and the rural population. If an in
fuential old farmer wants three
column notice of his new barn, it
must appear or the editor may loose
a hundred subscribers. Patchwork
quilts, big beets and phenomenal
eggs also clamor for space in the col
umns of the country paper. In the
course of time the rural scribe be-
comes incose OF morose, but in either
frame of mind he continues to meet
friends who demand free advertising
or enemies who work against him.
The country editor is always get
ting ready to abandon journalism for
something else, but he rarely carries
out his threat. He generally dies in
harness. In some wild communities
editors occasionally meet with rough
treatment. Sometimes they are driv-
en- out of the country, and, when
other methods of getting rid of them
fail, they send him to the Legislature.
The city editor gets deal of fun out
of the country editors work, but the
man who bears the burden regards it
as serious business. And in the hest
sense it is serious. The little local
weeklies scattered all over the coun-
try, are in their way potential factors
of civilization. They develop their
localities, bring their resources be-
fore the public, and in a manner ed
ucate their readers. They are al
ways on the side of the churches,
the schools, progress and reform.
Men who live and die working for
such objects are public benefactors,
and deserve a substantial reward.

The Dainty Boy.

What do you think befell
A little lad whom 1 knew right well,
In the merry spring-time of eighty one?
A rollicking chap, and full of fun
As any fellow beneath the sun.
As full of fun, mean,
When he played with the boys on the village green
For the moment he stood on the dining room mat,
Twas 81 cannot eat this, cannot cat that;
This meat is too lean; that piece too fat
The soup had been boiled too long;
And entyec and dessert alike were wrong.
He ate with most dsagreeable pout,
And grumbled, and ordered the servants about,
Rejecting with scorn cen his favorite trout.
So his parents engaged cook
Who had published wonderful Household book,
She tried the receipts at her kitchen fire,
With sugar and spice to her hearts desire,
Quite sure of her menu that none could tire.
But he only the thinner grew,
And said he hated those dishes new;
So they sent for another of practical skill,
Though it cost his father pretty bill;
But the dainty boy is complaining still.
And he's grown so poor meanwhile,
That scarce know whether you'd weep or smile
Should you meet him some day ON the busy street
AS he totters along on his slender feet,
And sways and bends like stalk of wheat.
And all who see him fear
Since he grows more dainty, they say, each year
That the sorrowful lad, who was erst so gay,
Win change to shadow, and fade away,
As the sunlight dies at the close of day.
Now, boys, be warned in time.
Don't scom the moral conveyed in rhyme,
But take your food with pleasant face,
Nor strive for the epicurean's place;
For tits costly winning in such a race.

Look most to your spending. No
matter what comes in, if more goes
out you will always be poor. The
art is not in making money, but in
keeping it. Little expenses, like
mice in barn, when they are many,
make great waste. Hair by hair
heads get bald; straw by straw, the
thatch goes off the cottage; and,
drop by drop the rain comes into the
chamber. A barrel is soon empty,
if the tap leaks but drop minute.
In all things keep within compass.
Never stretch your legs farther than
the blankets will reach, or you will
soon be cold. In clothes. choose
suitable and lasting stuff, and not
tawdry fineries to be warm is the
main thing, never mind the look. A
fool may make money, but it needs
wise man to spend it. Remember,
it is easier to build two chimneys
than to keep one going. If you give
all to back and board, nothing is left
for the savings bank. Fare hard and
work hard while you are young, and
you will have chance to rest when
old.

One of the most convenient articles
to be used in a sick room is sand
bag. Get some clean, fine sand ; dry
it thoroughly in kettle on the stove.
Make bag, eight inches square, of
flannel, fill it with the dry sand, sew
the opening carefully together, and
cover the bag with cotton or linen.
This will prevent the sand from sift-
ing out, and will enable you to heat
the bag quickly by placing it in the
oven or even on top of the stove. At
ter once using this you will never
again attempt to warm the feet or
hands of sick person with bottle
of hot water or a brick. The sand
holds the heat long time, and the
bag can be tucked up to the back
without hurting the invalid. 1t is a
good plan to make two or three of
the bags and keep them on hand,
ready for use at any time when need

Empire State Politics.

ALBANY, Aug. 1.-The members of the
Legislature who were here IN attendance at
the funeral OF General Grant talked good
deal about State politics. The two United
States Senators, William NJ Evarts and War
ner Miller, were consulted by many OF the
leading Republican members of the Legisla-
ture concerning party policy. Both of the
Senators expressed confidence that the State
would be carried by the Republican party this
fall. and urged the nomination OF men of un-
Improbable character for members OF the
Legislature
From the Republicans 1t was learned that
there are to be several candidates FOR Gov
eroor before the State Convention. The
friends of General Joseph b. Carr, Secretary
OF State, OF Troy, and or Ira Davenport, ex-
Controller and present Congressman, OF
Bath, tor several weeks have been making an
active canvass IN their behalf. Mr.. Daven-
port IS credited with having the support OF
ex-senator Piatt, but there are some polltl-
cians who suspect that Mr. Platt Is not zeal
