The Man Makes himself.

Polite and civil manners are not lost even
in the workshop; it pays to be pleasant and
courteous at all times and in all places.
Your employer will respect you for it, and
your fellow workmen will honor you. A
mans surroundings lower him only as he
lowers his surroundings. The blacksmith and
mOulder may be as true gentlemen as the
clerk or the proprietor. Honest labor is no
degrader. Man makes or mars his own
character, and is alone responsible foE the
reSult.-BOStOn Budget.

A strange freak Of nature has been brought
to our notice. A gentlemen living in the
neighborhood Of Rodney's has mare aged
about r9 years; his wife is the same age to
a day. Two years ago his wife presented
him with fine daughter and on going to
the stable on the same day he found that the
mare had foaled an equally fine female colt
Two weeks ago his wife again made him a
happy father, this time of fine boy, and
on going to the barn again to see how the
old mare Jared he was much surprised 10 see
that she had also came to time by presenting
him with handsome male colt. This may
be termed a remarkable coincidence, but it
is true.-LaMrel Ga=ehe.

THE address of Mr.. Morrow, Of Bal
timore. representing the National Pro-
hibition Bureau. which was given in
Reedy's Hall on Saturday night. was
slImly attended. Mr. NJ. spoke earn
estly OF the curses entailed upon hu-

the democrats to be openly arrayed
with the liquor interests, while he
placed the republicans on the fence,
aud said that whatever favOrs they
seemed to show were only covert efforts
TO draw tie prohibition vote to their
weakened cause. He dwelt at some
length on the statement that republi-
eanism was builded to accomplish the
emancipation of slaves, and that being
done, its usefulness and consequently
existence were waning. and would
soon entirely cease. He advised that
the time was come when the temper

party to occupy its vacant place.

A whole medicine chest in your pocket,
