A Joke on the Duke.

Duke Carl, Of " Gutenberg, was greai

days. Once he called at fai IN house anG
asked the farmers wife, who wa 8 churn
ing, for q drink of milk. She uFid not
know her visitor, but went away to. fetch
the milk, when the duke seized a cat
which was lying near, and threw it, to
gether with a ducat, into the churn.
When the woman returned, he drank the
milk and walked away. A year later the
same prince entered the house in different
dress, and again asked for glass Of milk,
and inquired whether some one hadn't
once secreted a cat in her churn. The
farmers wife laughed, and said: ooh,
yes; and I wouldn't mind his doing it
again at the same price" ''What did you
do with the butter you were churning
then?'' ooh! 1 sent it to the palace,

THE THREE ROCKERS"

''1hree rockers together, a-rockin' slow,
On the east PLACER, all in row;
Where are the folks, yer want ter know?
No answer comes, but the wind signs low.
The old house is gray with weather an time,
The well curb is messy an green with slime,
Ninders rattle an endless rhyme;
Nobody's here, but the cheers rock slow.
ct amt very long sence all in er row
Three sisters sat rockin' here to and fro.
Knittin', countin' from heel TO toe,
Watchin' the bay where sails come and go.
They watched an they waited day arfter day,
Not single ship sailed inter the bay;
'Joe's long a-comin',' then they say,
Whales must be skeerce,' and they all rocked
slow.
But while they watched Mandy whitened and
shrank,
And Mercy into strange silences sank,
And Marthy, she looked Old and Iank:
When will Joe Gomez an they rocked more slow.
''Then ther come er day when empty cheer
Moved soft in the wind by the sister pair;
a year more PARSED, and Mercy there
Sat watchin two idle rockers blow.
Three rockers together, a-rockin' slow,
Not a soul in Their place to make 'em go;
Folks are dead, if yer want ter know,
An the lonesome sea is rockin' Joe.'

A writing Desk of Cannon Balls.

The twenty-fifth anniversary Of Prince
Bismarck's services in the government of
Prussia brought him, among others, a
present of unusual weight from Lord
RaneIagh, who is a great admirer of the
prince. can iron present is the most suit
able gift for the iron chancellor he may
have thought. And there was delivered
on the festive day, at the palace of the
prince, parcel of immense weight. To
guess by it's weight, says a contemporary,
it might have been Bismarck's voice in
the council of the powers, but it was not.
When the covers were removed there
stood writing table of iron fashioned as
if made out of real live cannon balls. ~

improvements in the Air Brake.

Eighteen years ago, when the air brake
was tried, it required eighteen seconds to
apply it to a train 1900 feet long. Four
years later the time was reduced four
seconds. Recent experiments with the
air brake on freight trains show that it
can be applied to every car in a train Of
that length running at the rate of forty
miles an hour, and that this train can be
stopped within 500 feet, or one-fourth of
its own length, and all this without any
serious jolting. York Sun.

Seigel's Operating Pills are the best
family physic that has ever been discov-
cred. They cleanse the bowels from all
irritating substances, and leave them in
a healthy condition.
The best remedy extant for the bane
of our lives-constipatio and sluggish
liver.
These Pills prevent fevers and all
kinds of sickness, by removing all pois-
onous matter from the bowels. They
operate briskly, yet mildly, without any
pain.
If you take a severe cold, and are
threatened with fever, with pains in
the head, back, and limbs, one or two
doses OF Se1geIs Operating Pills will
break up the cold and prevent the fever.
A coated tongue, with a brackish
taste, Is caused by foul matter IN the
stomach. A few doses of Seigels
Operating Pills will cleanse the stom-
ach, remove the bad taste, and restore
the appetite, and with it bring good
health.
Oftentimes disease, or partially de-
cayed food, causes sickness, nausea and
diarrh9a. If the bowels are cleansed
from this impurity with a dose of
seigel's Operating Pills, these disa-
greeable effects will vanish, and good
health will result
SeigeIs Operating Pills prevent
ill-effects from excess in eating or drink
ing. A good dose at bedtime renders
person fit for business in the morning.
These Pills, being sugar-coated, are
pleasant to take. The disagreeable taste
common to most pills is obviated.

Healthy Signs orthe Times.

M. ID. Harter, OF Mansfield, Ohio,
was invited 10 respond to the toast Of
"Ohio" at the dinner recently given in
New York, at the Metropolitan Opera
House, by the tariff reform advocates.
Among other things Mr.. Harter said:
az take IL to be a healthy sign OF the
times that this very winter in nearly
every school house in Ohio the tiriff
question is being debated as the lead
ing vital issue before the people, and
while year ago scarcely Democratic
newspaper in Ohio published ten lines
a month upon the tariff issue, now
column after column OF facts and argu-
ments in favor of reduced tariff taxes
are poured out weekly in every one of
our SS counties. This change has been
brought about within one year, and
more than this while year ago it took
a courageous Democrat, II In politics to
declare in broad day light and above
his breath that he was upon the side
of the Lord and the people on the tariff
question, now every man of any intiu-
ence or reputation. in the party in the
State is a tariff reformer and wants
everybody to know it too. While the

many parts of the State he now has the
united and hearty support of his entire
party, and it is doubtful If Andrew
Jackson could rise up and poll as many
votes in Ohio as Grover Cleveland will
get in 1885, For a good share of this
revival, shall we call it conversion, we
have to thank the wide circulation in
Ohio of tho press of the city of New
York, and especially of that model tar

as Senator Sherman would have the
country think that Ohio is eager to be
taxed, and that all we banker after out
there is free tobacco and cheap whisky,

take, and the men who have to-day the

comfortable living are much more
in demand at Mansfield than untaxed
tobacco and free whisky Some of our
people have fondness for tobacco, it is
true, and others have a snealIing liking
for whisky, I am sorry to say, but they
are willing to pay for both. We people
in Ohio want to prosper, we want tc
make money, to get rich, and We see
that paying unnecessary taxes is moi
likely to lead us to wealth or universe
plenty. We have seen the condition o.
the masses steadily retrograding in the
scale of comparative comfort and We
know that by reducing tariff taxes We
will leave among the people largel
part of their earnings, and we believe
that with taxes off ofraw materials anC

Sharp Crediter, Sharp Debtor.

A poor man down East owned fat
hos: and also owed rich man. The
hog was about all the property the
poor debtor had worth Jlevying on, and
the law exempted a mans only pig
One day the creditor meeting the debt
or said: "You need another pig, let
me send you nice little one" The
poor man was astonished. "Why, !
owe for the hog I've got now," he
stammered. "Never mind, you need
another one and I'll send it, and he
did, and the little pig was put in the
pen by the side of the fat one. In less
than an hour the constable came and
attached the fat one.
The cows of Farmer A got into the
pea field of his neighbor, Mr.. B, down
In Georgia, and destroyed about lO
bushels of peas. Whereupon Farmer
B presented an account to Farmer A,
claiming Sc for 10 bushels Of peas at go
cents per bushel. Farmer A examined
the account, aud then turning to Farm
er b, said: 'Look here, neighbor B,
my cows ate up 10 bushels of your peas,
but you know the rule in gathering
peas Is to give one-half for the gather
ing. So you see my cows were entitled
to five bushels Of those peas for picking
them. Therefore I only owe you for
five bushels at so cents, and that makes
So. Here's your money" And at 81

The Importance of Pure Milk.

The absolute necessity of maintain
ing certain standard of purity in
food products, has led, in most of the
states, to a comprehensive and some-
what stringent legislation. concerning
adulteration. Particularly is this the
case as regards the products of the
dairy. The officiaLinspection busies
itself with both tire qualitative and
quantitative value of the articles. OF
all the foods supplied directly by Ma
ture, milk is the only one which con-
tains all the elements of nutrition in
the relative proportions required by
man. and in form easy of digestion;
it is therefore the food best suited to
young children and neutrality-suspicious.
who can i'll afford to have their food
tampered with in any way. This con-
sideration, together with the universal
use of the article, has determined the
adoption of a system of public inspec-
tion in nearly all of our larger cities.
The states of Massachusetts, New York
and Michigan have given particular
attention to the honesty of the milk
man, and the standards of quality and
methods of analysis established by
their public analysts have been gen.
orally adopted by chemists all over
the country. Yet in spite of the vigi-
liant eye which is thus constantly
watching this department of the farm,
pounds of butter weighed according to
system of units not recognized in the
arithmetics, milk which contains an
abnormal percentage of water, and
cream whose composition will not
bear investigation, are daily sold in
the market-places of both city and
country.
But there are, of course, two sides
of the question. Not unfrequently the
milkman is accused entirely without
cause. There are few housekeepers
who do not sincerely believe, in spite
of an otherwise general faith in man
kind, that he. at least, will bear watch
ing. The analyst, however, is a per-
fectly unprecedented person. He cares
little for the protestations of the ven
der, or the suspicious of the customer.
He simply says, "Your milk should
have such and such specific gravity;
it should contain such and such per-
centages of fat, or other hydrocarbons,
of mineral salts, and of water; if it
contain these, it is AN honest milk; if
it do not. it is adulterated." And gen.
orally, the analyst is not open to ar
gument. He has implicit faith in his
hydrometer and analytical balance
