SIMPLE, But EFFECTIvE.-A
certain skillful practitioner had a
number of charity patients, whom
he faithfully attended as occasion
required, expecting and receiving
only such reward as comes from the
comfort of doing good. Among
these patients was old Martha, q
well preserved relic of "befo' de
wah." Being up to the ways of her
white neighbors. she took the
"grippe," and Immediately sent
for her medical adviser.
"Why, Aunt Martha, you don t
mean to tell me You are under the
weather."
"I'se way undah it, doctah, away
undah it."
"Well, what is it ?"
81 doan know what it is, doctah,
but ] got it pow'ful bad"
The doctor readily comprehended
the trouble, and writing out the
proper prescription he gave it to
the excellent but aching Martha
and told her to put it in tumbler
of water, stir it well each time, and
take q teaspoonful three times a
day. Then assuring her that he
would look after her attentively, he
departed. The next day he found
his patient much improved, and by
the third day she was in an adyanc-
ed stage of convalescence.
"Oh, doctah," she exclaimed,
"yo' medicine am simply pow'ful.
l stir it and take it jes' like you
say. and feel better ebery time. !"
"Well," said he, "perhaps you
won't need any more; let me see
how much you have left,"
Old Martha numbered across the
room, and brought from the shelf
a tumbler half fnll of water.
"Why, what's this ?" he inquir-
ed.
"Why, dat doctah, is the med =
cine yo' lef me, and ! was very
caLful to stir it every time jes' like
You say"
Eyes; well. Martha, | don't be-
lieve you'll require any more of it;
the fact is, | didn't know myself
how powerful it was" And fish
ing out his prescription, which was
rather the worse for it's three days
bath, he went away impressed with
the belief that the mysteries of med
icine had not half been told

This was sufficient to permit her
to identify her old comrade of the
prison, and mutual introductions
followed. The party of four went

the table Hastings asked Miss Ruff

when We were prisoners together in
Fort McHenry.
Miss Ruffin was not yet ready to
disclose her secret and she told him
that it was probably a ring similar
to the one he had parted with.
Hastings appeared to be satisfied
with this explanation; but as their
intercourse became more friendly
she revealed her story to him and
informed him that she was the young
Confederate soldier who had gone
under the name of Charles Evans.
Their wedding took place ut the
y
Blakely residence, Baltimore, on
Christmas Eve, 1869, and they went
to live on the Hastings estate, Cal
vert county. Mr.. Hastings died
In 1874, leaving his wife childless,
but in the possession of a consider
able property.
She is now woman of forty-six
years, but looks ten years younger.
She has commanding features and
= fine figure, and as she told her
life story under the light of the
stars and to the murmur of the
waves on the Atlantic City porch
she produced the old ring, now
worn thin, that she had received
from her future husband while they
were prisoners.

is near the picturesque old time vii
lage of Prince Frederick, the coun-
ty town of Calvert county, Md,

Mrs. Hastin.- was born in Nor
folk, Va, in 1s45, and was by birth
q Ruffin-of the same family to
which belonged Edmund Ruffin,
who claimed to have fred the first
gun of the civil war, which was di-
rected from q Confederate battery
in Charleston Hsrbor upon the
steamship Star Of the West, sent in
February, 1861, by President Buch-
anan's administration with men
and stores for the relief Of Major
Anderson and his gallant little gar
rison, then shut up in Fort Sum-
ter. The Ruffius were all enthusi-
astic in the cause of the South, and
Ella Ruffin, who was 15 years of
age at the outbreak Of the war, was
as intense in her sympathies as any
member of the family.
Her two brothers early enlisted
in the Confederate army, and both
were killed at the battle of Antie-
tam. Prior to that time her father
her mother was dead-had re-
moved to Richmond from Norfolk
upon the fall Of the latter city into
the hands Of the Union forces. He
was too much of IN invalid for &C.
tive service in the field, and occu-
piee clerical position in the Con.
federate navy department under
Capt. 8. s. Lee, q relative of Gen.
Robert Z. Lee. The news Of the
death of his two sons inflicted a
blow on Mr.. Rufin from which he
never recovered. It so acted on
his enfeebled constitution that he
died three days afterwards, and his
daughter was left alone in the world.
She was then IL years old, tall and
well developed for her age, filled
with patriotic impulses for the Con-
federacy and determined to do
something in its behalf and in re-
venge for the loss her brothers.
First cutting OF her long and
luxuriant blond hair, she attired

Virginia Regiment of infantry.
Physical examination of recruits
was not customary IN the South in
those days, and she Was readily ac-
cepted, though, as she says, she was

eyes Of the recruiting officer, lest
her sex should Be detected. But
she passed the ordeal safely, and in

A Poor SPECIMEN OF JUDGE.
mo man in the State had a keen
er appreciation of humor than the
later Judge Il. Lisle Dickie. who
served many years as a circuit Judge
before being elevated to the su,
preme bench of the State. Al
though he had rich fund Of
anecdotal lore concerning the prom
inent members OF the Illinois bar.
he never related a good story Of any
of his fellow lawyers with keener
relish than the following incident
of which he was the hero. Ii is
necessary TO a full appreciation of
the story the reader should be re-
minded that Judge Dickie was cross
eyed to an intricate and marvellous
degree, and also gifted with bril-
lantly red hair.
The story is as follows:
Il had been out shooting prairie
chickens down below Ottawa and
was returning home ON the public
road along in the afternoon. Ii
was hot and | had already tramped
far enough to get thoroughlg tired
out, and rs it was several miles to
town, was anxious to catch ride.
The first team that came along was
a lightning rod outfit.
Friend. can you take passen-
ger:' said |.
lie looked at me suspiciously.
Perhaps looked even more cross
eyed than usual without my store
clothes on-at any rate he seemed,
at first, of mind to drive on
without me. But he finally stopped
his wagon and condescendingly
remarked:
Yes you can pile on back there.
top of the rods and ladders
Il gratefully accepted that priv
ilege and We rode on in silence un-
til we reached wayside watering
trough. The man dismountcd.
unlocked pail from beneath the
wagon, and proceeded to water his
horses. Meanwhile the proprietor
of the premises came out to fill his
own pail. He knew me we'll and
said:
How d. do, judge. What luck
have you had shooting:'
AS the word Judge fell from
his lips ! noticed Il look of astonish-
ment on the face Of the Yankee
lightning rod man. The fellow
was bocstering up the pail OF water
, with his knee To- height from
which his horse could drink with.
out unchecking, and his astOnish-
ment was so great that he let his
knee slip out from under the pail
and splashed the front of his cloth
es.
Didn't that feller back there at
the waterin trough call you judge
inquired the Yankee, as soon as We
had started on.
Yes ] replied.
What be you judge Of, u hoss
race:' lie exclaimed. turning back
to take n second contcmptuous in
yentory of my personal charms.
No; judge of court replied.
What kind of a COURT
"A circuit court, was my answer.
'Waal--down east, where come
from, it took considerable of
fellar to be circuit Judge. How
big's your circuit
1t reaches from the Wisconsin
line as far South as Peoria, ! again
replied.
Lifting the hickory stick of his
drivers whip he sent its long raw
hide lash twirling in succession Of
coils above his head, which cul-
minated in n erack like the arpIo
sion of pistol.
MY goodness! I'll settle in this
country myself if they make such
a man as you judgev exclaimed the
disgusted Yankee. 1t was his final
dictum. He did not offer to ex-
change another word with me. We
parted in silence at the outskirts
