A few evenings since Mr.. A. w. Norris,
who lives on the plantation of Mr.. T. w.
Brown near Montezuma, was taken sud
denly ill, to the great alarm of his family.
He continued quite sick, suffering greatly
with nausea until a late hour, when he at
last sank into peaceful slumber which
lasted until morning, and we are glad to
state awoke feeling entirely relieved, ex-
cept that he had singular taste In his
mouth. The next day he explained to his
wife as follows:
"Wife," said he, "last night after supper
thought would go into the dining room
and steal just one of those ginger cakes
you made yesterday In the dark made
q mistake and attacked most vigorously a
bar of turpentine soap that was lying on
the table, l bit out piece about the size
of half grown terrapin and before de,
tected my error had filed every hollow
tooth and between my teeth with the tarna-
ton stuff and had swallowed about a
dimes worth of It'll And that's what made
me so plagued sick" Alick says he's made
about twenty gallons of soapsuds washing
out his mouth, and judging from his taste
he has material enough yet in his mouth
to make twenty gallons more.-Macon
County Citizen.

Apropos of the movement to furnish
books to the prisoners in Auburn Jail, a
Norwegian lady residing in Auburn told
in her picturesque way an episode which
occurred in Charleston, s. G. Years ago a
mother took her 5-year-old boy into prison
when she went to see his father, committed
for some trifling offence. The little fellow
stepped into the adjacent CELL having over
it the number CO. To tease him the warden
shut the door, but quickly opened it at the
little fellows screams. His mother soothed
him, saying: Nobody shan't ever shut my
little boy In dark CELL" Years passed
The boys father and mother died His
uncle helped him and gave him money to
get to New York He fell in with bad
company, squandered his money, and In
sheer desperation attempted to commit
burglary in his uncle's house.
That relative was so enraged he handed
over his nephew to the authorities. Look
ing at the number of his cell, to his horror
he saw "6s," and knew that 1t was the self
same cell that had inspired his boyish ter
ror. Then his mothers words came back,
Nobody shan't ever shut my little boy in
dark cell, and he wept as he had not
since her death, for he had loved that
mother. The warden's wife found him In
a melted condition. He told her his story,
and she gave him the utmost sympathy
and kindness during his long term, short
ened by his good behavior. As he left the
cell and took last look ut those terrible
numbers "6S' he determined he would
make man of whom his mother should
be proud By his trade, learned in prison, he

Something More than Good Wishes
Needed.

In your issue of June Both your
correspondent wishes me success in
any effort to build a house of wor-
ship at Sailors Rest furnace. wish
to say / appreciate very much the
kind wish and good will of the friend
who wrote, and of all who have
taken an interest in my work, but
friends it will take something more
substantial than kind wishes to build
a house that will meet the wants of
our mission work. 1t will take in
connection with your sympathy
greenbacks. 1t reminds me of an in
cident that took place at New Or
leans many years ago, when trans
portation was done by fiat boats.
The owner of one of the boats had
the misfortune to lose his boat and
cargo. A great many gathered on the
wharf and began to give expression to
their sorrow. Finally a stranger took
out his pocket-book and said, II am
sorry fifty dollars, how much are you
sorry, gentlemen@' I leave those
who are interested in mission work
to make the application.
And now in conclusion, friends,
when you meet in your comfortable
houses of worship and enjoy their
comforts, think of me in crowded
school-house or under an arbor trying
to preach, under its Inconvenience
and disadvantages, and with your
good will and sympathy send good
and make the hearts OF
all concerned to rejoice.

The eccentric person was John l. Blair,
Of New Jersey, whose wealth is estimated
at fabulous amounts. He is rated to be
worth from 100000 to 500, 0O0, 900, yet
he was seated in porter's chair in the Pa
cifc scrubbing his old hat as il he could
never get another. While Mr.. Blair spends
little money ON himself he is quite gener-
GUS to others, and many kind deeds Of
charity are credited to his worldly account
He is remarkable man, for though SO
years old he presents the appearance of one
at CO. and acc&nplishes twice as much as
most young men.
His business career was begun so long
ago that the present generation does not
know him well. He built the greater por-
ton of the Lackawanna road, investing his
own money and keeping every dollar of his
securities. When Scranton was wilderness
he bought land in and around the place,
and saw it grow from nothing to a city of
100000 people, Mr. Blair built and now
owns half the roads In Iowa. The town Of
Blairsville, N. j., is owned by him. OF
late years he has made an immense amount
of money in the west. He would lay out
the route Of new road, mark the town
sites along the line and buy up all the good
land before the public knew Of the line of
the road When the towns sprung up Mr..
Blair had all the lots for sale.--C Chicago

Eggs are said to become unwholesome
when kept in refrigerators; fungus forms
in them which is easily found by a micro
scope, although it is not noticeable to the
taste This fungus constitutes a danger

Pretty Wicker Chairs.
There is nothing prettier in n country
parlor than few pieces OF rattan furni-
ture, either in natural color with cushions
of India silk or enameled in white and
gold and fitted up with striped tapestry,
cretonne or any artistic material the owner
fancies. There are two kinds of furniture
classified under the head of rattan-ths
genuine rattan and the reed or wicker,
The wicker chair is less expensive than the
rattan, but 1t is not TO be despised for this
reason. 1t certainly possesses one advan-
tage over rattan-it cannot be twisted into
such preposterously ugly shapes as rattan
has been by some manufacturers. The
nature of the material prevents it being
woven with backs in the shape of Japanese
fans and various other styles which are
parodies of oriental art.--New York Trib
