Put This in Your Pipe.

An English working man just past
the middle age, found that his pipe,
which had been great comfort to him,
was beginning to seriously affect his
nerves. Before giving up, however, he
determined to find out if there was no
way by which he might not continue
to smoke without feeling its effect to an
injurious extent. He accordingly wrote
to a medical journal, and was recon-
mended to fill the bowl of the pipe one
third full of table salt and press the to-
bacco down hard upon it, as in ordin-
ary smoking. The result was very
satisfactory. During the process OF
smoking the salt. solidifies, while re-
manning portions, and when the hard
ened lump is removed at the end Of the
days smoking. it is found to have
absorbed so much of the oil Of tobacco
as to be deeply colored. The salt should
be removed daily.

e95- Mr.. Ferdinand Schumacher, of Akron,
little, elderly German with philanthropic
face and an air of business shrewdness and
capacity, enjoys the unique distinction of be-
ing the pioneer in the manufacture of oat-
meal in America. Thirty years ago he land
ed at Castle Garden with small bundle OF
clothes, flute and less than $50 in money as
his sole capital in the new world. He started
into peddling Lake Erie fish, got into. gro
Gerry business, kept a beer counter in the reai
of his store, bought Touring mill and from
that went into the manufacture of oatmeal
pearl barley, cracked wheat and similar lux
uries. He is worth million or two and has
six or eight mills. 1t was his notion that
started the sale of oatmeal in grocery stores
in the neat little pound packages familiar te
every housewife, and through making spec
ialty of this more finely prepared stock he
made his fortune.

~ Pending the senatorial election in this
State, two years ago, lot of political cor
morants who imagined, because Hon. Henry
B. Payne had a rich son, that there was wealth
in fabulous Quantities afloat, tried persis-
tently to "break into camp" When rejected
because they were leeches, and without in
fluence, they yelped corruption.
When Mr.. Cleveland was elected President
of the United States and Senator Payne was
known to have deserved influence with the
administration, these self-same mountebanks
became fawning creatures for the Senator's
favor; but when erepelled them, as strangers,
they returned to their own moody disappoint-
ments and again yelled corruption. Mean
while the Senator is attending to his own
business, an honored and an honorable man
and the swapping of the puppies at his heels
will not injure either him or his reputation
Defiance Democrat.

sY Congressman Hill has introduced a
bill in Congress which provides for the con-
struction of post Offices in the United States
and authorizes thePo Postmaster General to con-
struct fre-proof postofice buildings in all
places having postofices of the second and
third class. The cost of the buildings is not
to exceed $50, 900 in towns of the second class
and $4,000 in towns of the third class. The
buildings are to be of uniform size and con-
structed under the direction of chief archi-
tect of the Postoffice Department. The
measure is good one, and would be a capi-
tai way of getting the dollars of the dadies
into the hands of the people.

e:ay DR.. Washington GLADDEN. of Colum-
bus, one of the leading thinkers and writers
of the day-a republican in politics-deliv-
cred discourse on the subject of frauds in
elections to large audience last Sunday
evening in the First Congregational Church
of that city, which is reported in full in the
Ohio State Journal. That paper speaks in
high terms and approval of it. In speak,
ing of the abuse of the Supreme Court for
the recent decision in the Hamilton county
elections cases, the able and eminent minis
ter uses these brave words:
"Many hard words have been said about
the Supreme Court and its decision by peo-
pie who have not read the decision, and who
are wholly ignorant of the law on which it is
based and of the precedents by which it is
supported. For my own part, it seemed to
me only fair and decent to withhold my
Judgment until could carefully read all that
the judges had to say, on both sides. After
repeated perusals of the decision and the dis
senting opinion, found myself quite unable
to join in the clamor which the public and
the newspapers have raised against the court.
And on consulting two or three lawyers Of
eminence-all Republicans found it to be
their opinion very decidedly, that the MAORI
ty of the court is right. Probably our law
yers would not all agree with the majority;
there are honest differences of opinion about
the Interpretation of the law; Judge johnson
has made it clear that there are two sides to
the question; but it is perfectly true to say
that excellent lawyers of both parties think
that the weight of opinion is on the other
side, and that the majority the judges are
right in their Interpretation of the law, which
expressly says that canyassers of election re-
turns Sin making the abstract of the votes
shall not decide upon the validity Of the re-
turn, but shall be governed by the number Of
votes stated in the poll-book."
1t is not my object at this time, nor would
it be becoming in me to discuss this legal
question or to undertake to pronounce judg-
ment where "great authorities" disagree.
refer to the matter for the sake Of saying
that the spirit and temper in wdich this de-
cision has been commented upon in the press
and by editorials is highly indiscreet and re-
prehensible."
No stronger vindication of the Supreme
Coprt-no more merited rebuke of the vici
ous assault of the press upon the Court and
especially upon Chief Justice Owen who wrote
the opinion of the court-can be conceived
than this.--Bry0n Dem.

sw- The postmasters Of the third and fourth
class have resolved upon National Conven-
tion, and have isssued their call to con-
vene in Chicago on Monday, February
18th, 1886. AS there are over seventeen
hundred of the third grade and almost fifty
thousand of the fourth, it is evident that
when they get fully organized they will be
come power in the land. Their movement
is not Of political nature, but solely for the
purpose Of inducing Congress to grant them
relief in the way of expenses for rent, light
fuel and clerk hire.
