AlcohoI and Inc Heart.

Drink a glass Of whisky and it passel
into your blood through your heart, In
to the lungs and finally into the brain.
Every part of the body tries to refuse II
admission, and 80 1t hurries on, but
leaves somewhat of itself behind, pois-
oning everything 1t touches; its baneful
influence remains. When the alcohol
reaches the. heart 1t goads the heart to
greater work. and so the heart beats
faster. The normal condition of the
heart is 100, 900 strokes a day, but an
abnormal condition, produced by the
use of alcohol. increases the hearts
work to 10000 strokes a day. This
extra labor Is very wearing upon the
heart. The manifestation of this un-
due excitement of the heart is felt in
the morning headache after last nights
drunk. Alcohol kept the heart pump.

..wHIrE CAP. GOSSIP.

The principle subject for gossip in
Penn's Grove of late has been about
White Caps. Gossip reports several OF
our ciLizens getting notices written
with Il pen or pencil and on the notes
were crude emblems of skulls and Gloss
bones, %cotfins, and pistols. Undoubted
many of them are sent n a semi-seri-
Gus joke, rs most of them contain good
wholesome advice for the correction
Of i%mmoralities and slothfulness for
which the Order was first organized in
Indiana and which the law does not
touch, because NJ ones rights are tres
passed OH, Notwithstanding the colrec-
| lion of such immoralities would great
ly purify gossip and lead 10 a more ex-
~alterated public morality.
Gossip reports the following good
white Cap'' advice as having been
received by some OF u citizens, who
certainly know better than We do who
the shoes fit.
1Ccdb yOuI ldullIy With hhoic OVut'o-
sy and stop drinking whiskey or be fog

Go to work and stop your wife from
using so much soap suds.

Go to work, stop drinking rum and

A young single man was advised to

Stop living with a woman not your

Pay your wash bill and stop running
after colored women.
Last Sunday evening three young
men who came out of st. Paul's church
before the services closed were scared
by two persons dressed with masks aud
white caps, who blew a peculiar aud
strange whistle.
1t is reported that ole of the scared
young men went to painting chairs in

A TRIP To FLORIDA.

Penn's Grove, Jan. l, 1889
ME-. EDIToR:-l take up my pen tt
give the readers of your valuable paper,
an idea Of the pleasures derived from
u trip to Florida, which many think
none but h rich AN enjoy. At the
conclusion OF my last letter we were at
Gadson's Point feasting on johnny cake
and black coffee. After Brown and
| a loaded our pockets and hats with
the choicest oranges we could find We
set a u for Bay Center where we were
to spend the winter. The wind being
light n tide against us our progress
was very slow but on we sped as fast as
possible, often asking our pilot how
much further we had to go. He would
say just around the point. but 1t all
looked like point to me, and l came to
Tue conclusion that we we're out for all
night, but after a long time the Shanty
ioomed up before us, ana we were soon
TO Know what u quarters looked like.
Tell you There was nothing attrac-
tive about that very rude structure,
bulit OH a rev plleings in the middle OF
the bay. guess it was something for
a couple Of gents like us to contend
with, after going all the way to Florida
Tor our health, having to take u
trunks and boots up stairs with us
every time we went to our beds to keep
them from getting wet. We turned in
for the night; arose in the morning feel
Ing like hiding some of the grub and, l
feel safe in saying that we did well In
getting on the out side of a good ananti-
ty of white side and grits.
After breakfast we boarded the
schooner Ida for a trip to Bayview to
get lumber for our house. After a run
OF four hours we arrived there, and
while awaiting for the lumber to be
gotten out for us, 1 took a view of the
town. 1t consisted OF II Hotel, n
saw mill, II grocery store, ware
house, five dwelling houses and n
barn. By the time l got v Q the
whole town and returned the lumber
was ready and we took on boarl all
that we could go safe to Bay Centre,
about as fast rs the bird called the
snapper. 1t was a bilious night for US,
as it vas almost impossible to see the
man on the lookout from the helm.
The wind blew a hurricane aud the bay
was dashed into a foam. Our craft
would dive under 80 that it would ap-
pear almost impossible for her to come
out. 1 think u Captain felt alarmed
1or our saIety as he wouid cry OUT WIN

Fenced HIS Girls In.

In an old book written by western
congressman, a contemporary of Clay and
Webster, containing "reminiscences of his
time, story is tcld of one of his friends.
farmer in Kentucky named Payne, who
bad six daughters, none of whow was
blessed with beauty. The congressman
knew them in their homeIy youth, and
when be returned few years later, found
them all married to good, influential men.
So great WAS bis surprise that he ven
iured to ask their father why they had
been so sought when other girls bad been
neglected. The old farmer chuckled.
"Yes. and you may say when they had
neither dowry nor good looks. Well I'll
tell you. When want my cattle to eat
buckwheat stubble instead of grass, I
don't drive them into the field. I fence
1t off from them. They are so contrary
that they always want the thing they
can't get. They break down the fence;
I drive them oft and put it up. By the
time they fight for it once or twice they
like the stubbe.
'Well, saw my girls weren't the most
attractive kind, and 1 fenced them in.
You never found them in the hotels
dancin' or keepin' stalls at country fairs.
Young men to know them bad to come
to their fathers house. When the neigh
bors saw how the Payne girls we're kept
apart from the crowd, they thought their
value must be high. Young men came
to break down fences"
sThe story was coarse!y told, perhaps"
adds the old narrator; shut there is more
in it than meets the eye"

Newspaper Law,

Fol the benefit of all who may seek 10
swindle the newspapers out of their just
dues, we publish the following, which is
kept standing at the head of the first
column in many of our exchanges:
1. Subscribers who do not give ex
press notice to the contrary are cons1d-
cred as wishing to continue their subscip-
lions.
2. If subscribers order the discontin-
uance of their periodicals.. the publisher
may continue to send them until all ar
rears are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect to or refuse
20 take their periodicals from the office
TO which they are directed, they are held
responsible till they have settled their
bill and ordered their paper discontinued.
4. If subscribers move to other places
without informing the publisher. and the
papers are sent to the former direction,
they are held responsible.
5. the courts have decided that re.
fusing to take periodicals from the Office,
or removing and leaving them uncalIed
for, is ''prima facia" evidence of inten
tional fraud.
6. Any person who receives news
paper and makes use of it, whether he
subscribed for 1t Or not, is held in law as
a subscriber
z. The postmaster who neglects to
give the legal notice of the newspaper
addressed to him, is liable also to the
publisher Or the subscription price.

The KnOut.

The Enulnburg Review.
With this horrible instrument an ex
pcrienced eXrcutioner could insure the
death of the victim in very few strokes
and when sentence was passed ordering
the lnf1lction of large number it was SO
perfectly understood what was intended
that In such cases the executloaer was
frequently bribed by the culprlt or his
friends to exert his whole art SO as the
more quickly to release him from the
torture So, again, when the Emperor
Nicholas, anxious to clear bis country
from the reprocah of being the "land of
the knout," to western ewes, pompously
proclaimed its abolition, he was careful
TO retain the power of inficting corporal
punishment In manner com mpared with
which the knout itself was merciful. The
knout could compass the death of its
victims with some half dozen strokes,
but before the same end could be attained
by itssubstltute, the stick, it was impossi.
ble to say how many blows might not be
required. An eye witness of one of these
executions has described it as heing more
hideous than anything that could be con
celved. The criminal having been con-
victed OF the deliberate murder of one of
the emperor's minister's be well deserved
to die, aud it was determined that die be
should; but capital punishment and the
kntut had been abolished; so, in order to
attain the end in view the wretched man
was sentenced to 5000 blows of the sick,
which nc human being could receive
and live. The execution took place in
the public hay market; and when, after
bearing 1,400 or 500 blows, the victim
fell an unconscious mass of bleeding flesh,
lie was bundled into an ordinary PEASANTS
bay cart, and, with pieces of hay sticking
in his gaping wounds, covered over with
some rough sacks, he was jolted off to the
hospital, and never heard of again. The
surgeons were not likely to be anxlons to
cure man whose death they knew to be
intended; and even feeling of humanity
may have prevented them from wishing
to recall poor soul to lite only to enable
him to undergo further torture till he
should be released by death.
