POLITICS IN UNIoNvILLE.

There is promise of very bitter contest for the postmastership of the village of Union vile in this State, between Charles O. Geor- gia, son of the present postmaster, ,and Frank Chamberlin. The younger Georgia is @ strong Republican, and 1t is peculiar fact that he is the leading candidate for the office which his father must lose for being Democrat. All of which proves that politics are funny things.-Norwich Record

Stupid Frauds on Sanford's Ginger

Beware of cheap, worthless, and often dangerous |" gingers," which are consistently urged, even forced, upon would be purchasers of sASfoRDs as our own make,' good as Sanford's, or " cheaper than Sanford's, or " same as Sanfords, etc., by mercenary dealers, not in the interest or health, but for few cents' extra profit.
 No respectable druggist or grocer is ever guilty of such practices.
 Avoid all others.
 Composed of imported ginger, choice aromatics, and medicinal French brandy, sANFoRD's GINGER, based on intrinsic worth, is the cheapest ginger in the world. costing two to five times that of any other, and selling but few cents higher than the cheapest pedler's ginger. Sold everywhere. Ask for

BAYBERnY TALLow.

our ancestors was the manufacture of Gay berry Tallow." It does not appear that it was made in this parish except for home con- sumption and yet it might have been. At any rate the product was deemed of sufficient importance to need protection from the gov ernment for in 1721 we read:
 the twentieth day of August annually. gather any place in this Colony, he or they so offending shall pay fine of two shi!lings and sixpence for each peck of berries so gathered as aforesaid and pro rata for greater or lesser quantities.
 It was found by experience that August 20 was too early for the proper maturing of this crop, and the following year an amend
 ment to the act extended the time to Sep-
 tember 10, when they might begin to hus-
 band tho same. Certain godless ones were
 just as eager to evade the laws Q century and
 half ago as they are to-day, and that they
 infringed in so small an offence as unlawfully
 gathering baberries is made apparent from
 the following, which was passed two years
 later or in 1724:
 "Whatsoever persons or person ehall have
 their possession at any time before the 10th
 day of September, shall suffer the penalty hereinbefore recited, except such offenders
 shall prove that he or they gathered said ber ries out of the Colony"
 There is no record of any prosecutions fol ths ,,bove cause within our borders. But the authorities in their anxiety to protec, this industry overreaohed themselves fol once. These attempted safeguards carried within themselves the seeds of their own de struction. The law was prohibitory to tha extent the settler could not even control tht product of his own farm while the act wal | in force. Such limitations was not liberty in any sense, and hence in 17s0 the whol' previous legislation was repealed and made void.
 Bayberry bushes are we'll nigh extinct ir the town. Occasional patches are only hert and there seen. A certain Elizabeth McCoy in the second district was one noted tallov maker. It is doubtful if a vestige of this material can be found in house in town to
 day, yet fifty years ago such fragments
 were very common. The shrub itse!l
 was indigenous to the soil, though il
 preferred warm climate. It is low
 and spreading in It's growth. The berries are a stone fruit adhering closely to the wood, and when ripe, about the size of pepper corns and covered with gresnish white Eesinous

How to Have Good Servants.

Set them a good example. One
ounce of practice is worth a pound of
precept.
Take time to teach them their du-
ties thoroughly, and to notice whether
they are well or i'll performed
Abstain from fretfulness or anger at
neglect, ignorance or inattention. Let
your reproof be mild, but firm in man
ner.
Never reprove one servant before
another; sullenness will oftener be the
result of so doing than obedience.
Do not withhold commentator when
deserved.
Remove temptations, and act as if
you expected to find good principle.
Never lose sight of the truth that
you are held in great measure NOR

Endorsing.

The system of endorsing is all
wrong, and should be utterly abol-
ished. 1t has been the financial ruin
of more men than, perhaps, all other
causes. Bookkeeping, a journal de-
voted to merchants, clerks, and bust
ness men, advises our young men
especially to study matter carefully
in all its bearings and adopt some +,
settled policy to govern their con-
duct 80 as to be ready to answer the
man who asks themtO sign his note.
What responsibility does one assume
when he endorsesr note? Simply
this: He is held for the payment of
the amount in full, principal and
interest, if the maker of the note
through misfortune, mismanage-
ment, or rascality, fails to pay it,.
Notice, the endorse assumes all this,
responsibility, with no voice in the
management Of the business and
no share in the profits of the trans
action, if it prOvss profitable; but
with a certainty of loss if, for any
of the reasons stated, the principal
fails to pay the note.

An Honest Christian Man.

The following supposed incident
will serve to illustrate the truth that
a truly honest man will not take a
larger sum for property than its just
value, even if he is offered more.
A certain man named George
Smith came one day toa farmer nam
ed Daniel Jones, wishing to buy a
pair of oxen, and said; "Those red
oxen Of yours suit me, and | will
give you $l2O for them" Daniel
Jones replied; That is $50 more
than they are worth" George
Smith looked wonder-struck at
this remark. The farmer said :
81 know the value of those oxen bet
ter than you do. One of them is a
little 'breachy,' and the other one
cannot bear the heat So we'll as some
oxen, and yet there are good quail
ties in them; but, all things consi-
dered, 800 is all they are worth, and
you may have them for that price"
George Smith gladly took the oxen,
and said to a man on his way home:
at beats all what difference there
is in the religion of men. Now there
is old James Clark, my near neigh
Dor; / have heard him make many
a long prayer. If he had owned
these beautiful oxen he would have
asked me $3.50 or more for them, and
he would have called them great
bargain at that price, and he would
not have said word about one Of
the oxen being inclined to bt
breachy and the other not very tough
in hot weather. | do not know any
thing about religion myself, but ont
thing | know, as well as | know
where the sun shines on a warm day
and that is, there is mighty big diff
ference between Daniel Jones' anC
James Clark's religion.
