Eating a Sermon and n Miracle.

| Every one who eats his matutinal egg
eats Il sermon and a miracle Inside OF

town for all the philosophers and scien-

offensive weapons of chemistry and reason
they have probed and weighed and ex-
perimented; and still the question is un-
solved, the citadel unsacked. Professor
Bokorny can tell you that albumen is com

nitrogen and hydrogen, and can persuade
you of the difference between active and

Chee.e Two Centuries Old.

Boyd Winchester, the consul general OF
the United States to Switzerland, has Just
completed some exhaustive researches in
regard to the cheese industry Of that coun-
try. He has made certain discoveries that
the cheese-makers of this country will be
little slow TO believe. He claims TO have
seen cheeses that are more than 300 years
nd. One of the customs that formerly
prevailed in the cheese regions Of that
country, Mr.. Winchester says, was for
the friends of bride and bridegroom to
join in the presentation on their wedding
day of an elaborate cheese. This cheese
was used as a family register and heir
loom on which the births, marriages and
deaths are recorded. He says that he has
seen nome of these "old cheeses" that date
back to 1860. In many parts of Switzer
land cheese forms the principal diet of the
people. He says that new cheese often
causes sickness. When this is the case the
patient is treated in the homeopathic fash
ion with old cheese, which generally ef-
fects cure.-Washington Cor. Boston

The republicans have not yet chosen the
chairman Of the state executive committee foT
the coming campaign In fact, available men
seem to be rather scarce. Neither Mr. Bush

men are rather modest about coming forward

suggestion has properly found a great deal
If favor. But II the nominations are not yet
closed. we desire to su ,geSt Samuel Elickinger,
the genial and ingenious editor of the Ohi1

his brother republican editors by calling that
convention the other day.

The battlefield Is instructive and the tales
heard there are the fragments of history
that it will take generation yet to write
PERHAPS the most remarkable man in the
town is Maj W. d. Holtzworth, the guide
and hackman. Twice Il day in fair weather
does he tell the story of the three days fight
1t makes no difference to him whether his lis
teners number ten or 800 He knows his les
son well. and while he was in Libby prison
during the Gettysburg fight, he has made the
battle his life study. Daily he tells men who
were there much that they never knew, and
while frequently taken TO task by some
smart Alex he always comes out on top
His narrative Is clear, concise, marvellous In
two hours he tells what men have been trying
TO discover for score of years. He shows
where every struggle took place, where every
corps, brigade, division or regiment on either
side was stationed; he tells Hh0 commanded
the various bnli,S Of troops and what officers
were killed and wounded; the past and pres
ent condition Of the field he knows by heart,
and his listeners never fail 20 appreciate and
marvel at the mans vast fund from which
he draws. There is but one Holtzworth and
one Gettysburg. Without the former the
latter would be nothing, so far as the battle
field is concerned-W Wilmington News
