When the autograph craze first be-

acquaintance, in order to prove that
he is on familiar terms with the cele-
brated So-and-So. The devices he en-
ploys to achieve this end are ingenious
and inexhaustible. For example. he
drops you line to inquire in what year
you first printed your beautiful poem

that you are not the author Of that
poem, which he must have confused
with your Rhine of the Ancient Mariner
and there you are! The insidious
rogue knew very we'll thAt you didn't
write the Psalm of Lite. Another trick
is to inquire of you if your fathers mid

your father has probably been dead
many years, and rs perhaps he was DOT

The First Sign

OF failing health, whether In the form OF
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in .
sense OF General WEAKNESS and Loss OF
Appetite, should suggest the use OF
Ayers Sarsaparilla. This preparation
is most effective for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro-
noting the digestion and assimilation of
food, restoring the nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.
Failing Health.
Ten years ago my health began to fail.
/ was troubled with distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pre-
scribed by different physicians, but
became so weak that / could not go up
stairs without stopping to rest. My
friends recommended me to try Ayers
Sarsaparilla, which I did, and 1 ann now
as healthy and strong as ever. - Mrs.
e. L. Williams, Alexandria, MINI.
have used Ayers Sarsaparilla in my
family, for Scrofula, and know, II it is
taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terrible disease. l have
also prescribed 1t as tonic, as well as an
Alternative, and must say that honestly
believe it to be the best blood medicine
ever compounded.-W.F f. Fowler, NJ. D.,

Production Of Hardware.

The value of the hardware produced in
the United States per annum at the presen,
time is over $50, 00O, 900, and half of it il
made in Connecticut. The total OF &c.,.
000, 900 does not include q large number oil
articles like flre-arms, agricultural nipple.
ments. etc., which are often sold by hard
ware dealers. Neither does it include cui
nails, ornamental iron work and great
variety Of other articles, which would swell
the total far above sl00, 000. 900 per annum.
The trade in cutlery and edge tools is often
classed as Separate interest," distinct from
the hardware trade. The amount of these
goods produced in the United States ID
about $l5, 600. 900 per annum, but is in
cluded in the totals above given.

A Specimen of Irish Landlords.

What some Of the landlords in ireland
are may bs estimated by the account Of
what occurred recently on the estate OF
Sir John Godfrey. A farmer named Reeves
held ten acres under him, and he owed f37
for rent, which he could not pay, owing to
the fall in prices. The bailiif burst into
the house and carried off NIL the furniture
with the exception of bed, on which Mrs
Reeves, was lying week and i'll with her
baby. They forced her to get mp, and she
sat on the ground by the fire. bailif ut
once extinguished the fire, and she and her
baby were driven out on the roadside It
was cold and wet, and her condition was so
alarming that priest was sent for 10 nd
minister to her extreme JUNCTION. Then, At
last, the bailiffs allowed her to take refuge
inside the house. Such conduct is, we
know, legitimate, for property justly claims
IS pound of flesh. To boycott the man
who does il, and to refuse to have any in
tercourse with him, is, we also know, o
most wicked proceeding.

Silent Sounds.
You do hear it7 Unto me
The sweet low sound comes ceaselessly,
And, floating, floods the earth and sky
With tender tone.
You do not hear the restless beat,
Upon the floor OF childish feet
OF feet that tread the fiowery street
OF heaven alone
At morn, at noon, at eve, at night,
hear the patter, soft and light,
And catch the gust OF wings, snow-white,
About my door.
And on the silent air is borne
The voice that from my world was torn
That left me- comfortless, to mourn,
For evermore.
Sometimes floats up from out the street
The boyish laughter, blrd-like, sweet
turn, forgetfuily, to greet
My darling fair.
Soft as the ripple OF the stream,
Breeze-kissed beneath the moons pale beam,
How strangely real doth It seem!
And he not there.
All, no; you cannot hear his call;
You catch no laugh, nor light football;
am his mother-that is all;
And He who said,
II will not leave thee desolate,n
Has, somehow, loosed the bonds of fate
And left aJar the golden gate
Which hides my dead.

Mrs. Alice Key Pendleton, wife of Geo.

Minister to Germany, was instantly killed
in Central Park, New York, the other
afternoon, and het daughter Jennie

The Latest Sensation.

The excitement over the find" ofbloody
shirts on Gilbert Wilson'S farm Is increas.
ing. One is white and two are checked
shirts, with blood plainly marked on them.
There are some other marks on the gar.
ments. Gov Blair refuses to tell about
any except one trade mark; the Others
are peculiar. He says that an important
clew was found and that he Will
make the most of in bringing Jud Crouch
to trial, as he has long desired to do. The
evidence at the trial of Ella Shannon, Hol.
combs hired girl at the time of the
murder, was to the effect that the bloody
garments in a trunk in Jud's room at Hol.
combs had disappeared. Jud claimed to
have had the nose bleed on the morning OF
the murder, but after that denied all
knowledge of the shirts when they had
disappeared. Gov. Blair says he Will send
the garments to DR.. Stowell of Ann Arbor,
TO determine whether the blood is human
or from an animal.
Miss Shannon has been shown the cloth
ing, and positively asserts that the shirt is
the same one she saw hidden behind the
chest the morning after the murder. g. ).
Wilson. Gov. Blair's partner, has no doubt
that the clothes were worn by the murder
ers of the Crouch family. The white shirt
bears evidence Of having been torn in the
struggle, and the theory of the prosecution
has always been that Eunice White had
made desperate struggle for her life, and
the supposition is that the shirt was worn
by the man who killed her. The clothing
was found about two rods from the road
which leads from the Crouch homestead to
Dan HOlcOmb's house.

Texas Drought.

from q trip in southwest Texas as far west
as Fort Davis, in Preside county. He
passed through the center Of the grolt
safeguarding section of Texas, and re
ports that terrible drought prevails in
Preside, Pecos and Crockett counties
These counties embrace an area somewhat
exceeding the acreage Of the state OF
Maine Maj. Bash says that for many
miles, as far as the eye can reach, the
country Is bare Of vegetation, not even
weeds growing On one ranch out OF
1900 cattle, 1900 have died within the past
month and the prairie is strewn with car
cases surrounded by myriads of buzzards
On another ranch 5000 sheep have died
while on one of the largest the herder wa,
compelled to kill 5000 lambs and neigh
boring herder killed 5000 lambs because
their mothers were too weak from starva
ton to afford them nourishment. Bash
described the situation in this far west
country as terrible beyond description
The shepherds told him unless rains fell
shortly every human being and domestic
animal would be compelled to vacate that
district and move to the north of Texas.
