Mark TMain,s Courtship.

Mark Twain, if he is in the mood, will
tell the story of his own courtship in a
manner worthy of the greatest of living
humorists. When he first met the lady
who afterward became his wife he was not
SO distinguished as now, his origin was
humble, and for some years of his life he
had been pilot on the Mississippi river.
The future Mrs. Clemens was woman of
position and fortune; her father was q
judge, and, doubtless, expected family"
and social importance in his son-in-law.
Clemens, however, became interested in
his daughter, and after q while proposed,
but was rejected.
We'll" he said to the lady, Il didn't
much believe you'd have me, but thought
I'd try"
After while he @tried" again with the
same result, and then remarked with his
celebrated drawl, Il think great deal
more of you than if you'd said Yes but
it's hard to bear" A third time he met
with better fortune and then came to the
most difficult part of the task, to address
the old gentleman.
Judge" he said to the dignifed mil
ionaire, "have you seen anything going on
between Miss Lizzie and mel"
what? WHAT" exclaimed the judge,
rather sharply. apparently not understand
ing the situation, yet doubtless getting a
glimpse of it from the inquiry.
Have you seen anything going on be-
tween Miss Lizzie and me?"
"No, no, indeed" replied the magnate,
sternly. @No, sir, have not
well Look sharp and you will said
the author of "Innocents Abpad;" and
that's the way he asked the judicial lum-
mary for his daughters hand.

The Man of Real Force.

Contrary to general belief, then, the
man of real force is never bully, is
never arbitrary or unjust, is never pas
sionate, though he may be, and gener-
ally is aggressive, and may, as occasion
requires, give exhibitions of temper
that is, nevertheless, kept in perfect
control. Force of character brings
with it self-reliance and an imperturba-
BILE manner. just as the really cour-
ageous man remains cool in the pres
ence of danger, the self-reliant man
keeps his temper under provocation
because he feels confidence in himself.
The coward grows excited and loud
mouthed to conceal his real feelings.
The arbitrary man, accustomed to force
his views upon others, loses confidence
in and control of himself when he fails
to make his usual impression. 1t is at
such moment that real force of char
acter begins to tell; it is then that the
self-contained and self-respecting man
dictat his terms and asserts his pow
er-Bastimofe Sun.

An Ingenious Railway Appliance.

1t will soon be just as safe to travel on q
railroad train as to remain quietly and
comfortably at home. It is shrewd and
inventive native of Australia who pro-
poses to bring this longed-for blessing
about. He has designed truck which is
to be run at any desired distance before
every train. The motive power is to be
furnished by dynamo placed upon the
engine. If the truck should come into
collision with anything on the track GER
tain glass tubes in which the electric cur
rent is conducted are broken, and at the
same moment the brakes on the train are
automatically applied and the cars brought
to quick standstill. Those who have
seen the working model say the invention
is a great success; but even if it be fail
ure it furnishes absolute evidence that the
inventive geniuses of the world are now at
work upon the problem of now to make
high speed travel absolutely secure.

Bits from Burdette.

It seems to us, from what we can
gather in the columns of the local
press, that there is Congressional
contest in progress down in old Vir-
ginia. At least we infer that the nomi-
nations have been made, from slight
personal reference in the other paper,
which says, speaking of one of
the candidates, that lin personal beauty
the gorilla is his peer, and in intel
lectual ability the clam is his master. !"
"My son, said the parson firmly, Il
am not going to punish you this after
noon, because your outcries would dis
turb the entire neighborhood and break
harshly on the Sabbath, but tomorrow
morning am going to give you whip
ping that you will remember the longest
day you live" "Yes," said the boy,
who had gone to the woods for chest
nuts instead of attending divine SER
vice, "a nice Universalist you are !;
preach universal salvation in the morn
ing and then come home and practice
future punishment.
An eminent theologian, who ought

DO We Know Ourselves.

The invention of the photograph and
graphophone has brought out the sin
gular fact that few persons, if any,
know their own voice. When several
persons in succession have spoken into
one of these machines, each may recog-
nize in its reproductions the voice of a
friend or acquaintance, but not identify
his own. An analogous phenomenon
has been observed in the matter of
sight by photographers, who satisfy in
likeness everyone but the original.
Thus it seems that we not only do not
see ourselves as others see us, but we
do not hear ourselves as others hear US.

sold to commission merchants for d to
s. q dozen. The merchants afterward
retail them for three or four times as
much.
A Yucatanian who works very hard
in making hammocks clears about 30
cents day. The profits of the mer-
chants can be easily calculated from
these figures. But so cents day is
considered good wages for Yucatan
man, for he lives on vegetables and
sleeps in hammock of his own con-
struction.
The highest-priced hammock in the
market to-day costs about So. They
are made of the finest kind of grass
and are gorgeously colored. The low
est priced cost rs cents. They are made
of cotton, and are manufactured in
this country. Linen hammocks cost
from so to SIS.
The tendency this year is toward
cheaper articles. A good hammock
can be bought for 81. Such one is
not very pretty, but it will bear weight
of 1000 pounds.
Most of the cheap hammocks are
manufactured by the sailors at Snug
Harbor, Staten Island. These veterans
of the sea have great deal of time at
their disposal, and as they are dexter
Gus with their fingers they manage to
turn out many thousands of hammocks
every summer. The work not only
employs their idle fingers but gives
them an opportunity to earn little
extra money for pies and cigars.
It is calculated that more than one
million hammocks of domestic manu-
facture are sold every year.
The barrel-stave hammock, which a
few years ago was used only in out-of-
the-way farms, is coming into fashion.
Experts say that it is more comfortable
than the netting.
A new feature in hammocks is big
net which will comfortably hold a half
dozen persons. The net is sixteen feet
long and proportionately wide.
Single hammocks have sunk into in
nocuous desuetude,

HER EYEs WERE OPENED.


The Wonderful Answer to an Aged BIind
woman's Prayer.
Scudertou, quaint little village in
Montgomery county. Pa, is considerably
excited over the curious experience of
Mrs. Benjamin Meyer, lady " years Of
age. For i've years Mrs. Meyer has been
totally blind. On Saturday, November 10,
after four days Of confinement in bed, she
opened her eyes and suddenly exclaimed:
sMein Colt in himmel, see"
Her husband, whose age is 10, rushed to
her and was Immediately recognized. The
whole household fastened to the woman's
bedside and beheld verifcation of her
statement. She saw the dishes through
the glass case of cupboard which stood
at the end of the bed, and pointing in the
direction of an old arm chair, said:
ooh, see, there Ia my old arm chair and
There is the picture Of the German village
scene with its laughing maidens and
lovers"
Mrs. Meyer then asked to see her chill
drep and grandchildren, twenty five in
number, and, calling them by name to her
bedside, described infinitely the articles
and dresses they wore. She then told
them that she had prayed last summer as
her last wish on earth to see her children
and grandchildren once more. and that she
believed this was the fulfllment of her
prayer.
On Sunday the people of the neighbor-
hood swarmed to Mrs. Meyers house, and
they were soon convinced of the truth of
the miracle. Before the day had closed,
however, she exclaimed:
"This is the last Sunday that shall
ever have the use of my eyesight."
When the old lady awakened on Mon
day morning she found that her sense Of
vision was again gone.
Mrs Meyer and her husband live in a
quaint old farm house, built about eighty
years ago, situated on the Scuderton turn
pike. They have lived together in the old
structure nearly fifty years. Mrs. Meyer
is perfectly contented since she was provi-
dentially granted the privilege of seeing
her children and grandchildren before she
dies

The Travelling Cap Disappearing.

The ld-fashioned silk travelling or skull
cap is fast being superseded by the Eng
lish plaid double peaked helmet. By
actual count on an evening train for Phil
adelphia on the Pennsylvania road last
week there were nine travellers wearing
plaid helmets, and only two with black
silk head-ge, II. The helmet covers the
eyes and excludes the light if one wants to
doze, while it feels and looks more like the
train at station. On the other hand the
skull cap alwas conveyed the idea that the
wearer had pulled the lining out of his hat
for temporary use.

Cure Of Pneumonia.
Hess ROAD, NIAGARA Co., N.

Marsh "a, 1886. 7
About year ago I was taken with a
severe pain in both lungs. Twas first at
tackled with violent chill, then dread
full pain, and then cough, accompan ed
by considerable fever. 1t booked very
much like bad attack of pneumonia. A
friend Of mine procured five ALLcoCK's
PLAsTRRs. One he put under each arm,
one under each shoulder blade, and one
on my chest close around my throat. In
few hours the cough ceased, the pain
gradually abated, and broke out in a
profuse perspiration. fell into pro-
found sleep, and the next day was almost
we'll. I wore the Plasters eight days
afterward, and have never had any trouble
since. WILLIAM A. SAWYER.

Made His own conn.

Near Sullivan, Moultrie county, nlinois,
the death OF Uncle Bill" Watson took
place xecently. He was known IS the man
who made his own coffin, and was very &C.
centric. The coffin was plain one Of
black walnut. Mr.. Watson cut and sawed
the lumber himself, and after seasoning II
for about eight years concluded to make il
into coffin for himself. He did so many
years ago and soaked it in oil and then
vanished il well. At the head he put q
cross piece and raised II about Eve inches
higher than the other. He stated that
when he lay down he wanted his head
raised. The reason given for it's manufac-
ture lie the shoddy character Of the shop
made goods. Mr.. Watson was 76 years old
and Mexican soldier and soldier in the
late war. He had lived on his present
farm for over forty five wears. About two
weeks before he died he had the coffin
brought into his room and placed at the
foot Of his bed.
