RUDENESS

During the past October l was traV-
cling on the railway between Blng-
hampton and Utica. In the car there
was a party of young men that pc
Ionged to the University of Hamilton
They were very lively and were pass
ING their bantering talk back and forth
with each other, which was quite ire
ouentlv loud and not altogether gen
teeI. At one of the stations just as
night set in, which by the way was
rainy one, a middle aged man entered
our car. He had ladies' plaid shawl
around his shoulners, and moved as II
in feeble health He carried one or
more parcels in his hand, together
with a wet umbrella. AS he came up
the aisle to take his seat, one OF these
University dudes-for can not better
describe them-called out, "Ah, good
evening. madam = quite a wet rain
OUT The gentleman lifted up his
hat so as to show his iron gray hair,
and turned his keen black eye upon
his saluter. He spoke not with his
tongue. but that eye of his seemed TO
Dierce the dude through and through
and he began to shrink as it were into
nothingness. The gentleman L learn
ed had come aboard the train with the
dead body of his wife which he was
taking into the Mohawk Valley tc
bury. and of course was in too much
sorrow to even converse with polite
strangers, to say nothing of being sub
iected to such ridicule. What are uni
yersities for if not to send out young
men void of such rudeness? How
would the parents of such younI
man have felt, to have been presen
and heard their son thus rudely cal
out to an entire stranger old enough
To be his father? Possibly his parent
were fitting him for a minister. Shouts
such be the case 1 sincerely hope h
will never again be guilty of the sam
rudeness, and that his future may b
fruitful of true politeness, which is
qualification that should adorn ever
student whether at academy, cOlleg
or university, and without which n
man is or can be real gentleman
least of all a true Christian.

Uses of the Papaw Tree.

In the West Indies one of the char.
acteristics of an intelligent cook is the
care with which he or she will see to it
that papaw tree is growing within a
short distance of the kitchen door The
fruit of the papaw, if large and well
grown, is not to be despised as break
fast dish, and its rich golden flesh IS to
many much more palatable than that
of the popular melon. But the at
Effectiveness of the p paw for the cook
consists in its leaves, which possess the
remarkable property Of rendering meat
tender The toughest beefsteak or the
most hopeless old rooster can be made
soft and comparatively juicy by being
wrapped for an hour or two in the
large, dark green papaw leaves. New
York Commercial Advertiser.

Peripatetic Kitchens to Flood fJey YORK
and Cooks to BE Dethroned.
Turn the crank and get dinner.
That's about what it's come to now.
For years we have been turning the
crank and getting gas and water, and
of late heat has been brought along I'M
der the streets and into our homes, but
now the climax is to be capped, it
seems. Food is to be brought to us in
a sort of movable kitchen.
A certain food supply company,
which originally broke loose IN Boston,
is about to erupt this city. 1t promises
much, and alleges that it has fulfilled
even more in the City of Beans"
For instance. YOU can order q dinner

station stairway, and prompt to the
minute there it will be.
Moreover, they promise that it will
be good 1t will come in a queer
shaped vehicle and be served by a man
with progressive ideas
To supply out of the way places with
meals is not the main idea of the
scheme 1t is proposed to invade homes
and abolish kitchens. This is direct
blow at the great army of cooks, who,
up to date, have reigned supreme.
They have had US in their entire keep
ing-not only our health, but our do
nestle happiness as well; and now, at
last, they are to be undOne
Just think of it!
No more What shall we have for
dinner, dear?'
No more UNDERGONE fish and burned
up mutton.
No more dinners on sardines because
the market man had forgotten to send
the roast of beef arOund-and that al
ways happens, you know. when you
have asked Smith home to take 'pOt
luck" with you. trusting that there
would be something especially good tc
eat.
No more vexed wives with red faces
burned fingers and an inclination to bt
snappy, all because some little pastry
| did not come out Just right
The fOOd-On-tap company is to have
a number of kitchens located in differ
ent parts OF the city, and from these
kitchens send out supply wagons riggec

Crime and drunkenness have in
creased in terrible proportion in Ger
many and France during the past
twenty years. This fact disproves the
oft-repeated false assertion of anti to-
tai abstinence people that the con-
sumption of beer and wine-light alco-
holics-tends to sobriety. The report
of the last International Congress for
the suppression of alcoholism, which
was held in Paris from July % to Aug,
1, 1889, affirms that criminality and
mental alteration follow a march par
allel with the consumption of alcohol
ic beverages.

A newspaper in Ohio recently bro't
suit against forty-three men who
would not pay their subscriptions, and
obtained judgment in each case for
the amount of each claim. OF these
twenty eight made affidavit that
they owned no more than the law al
lowed, thus preventing attachment.
Then, under the decision of the su-
preme court, they were arrested for
petit larceny and bound over in the
sum of three hundred dollars each.
All but six gave bond, which six went
to JAIL The new postal law makes 1t
larceny to take a paper and refuse to

There was once a horse that used TO
pull around a sweep which lifted dirt
from the depths of the earth, He was
kept at the business for nearly twenty
wears. until he became old, blind, and
too stiff in the joints to be of further
use. So he was turned into pasture
or left to crop the grass without any
one to disturb or bother him. But the
funny thing about the old horse was
that every morning, after grazing
a while he would start on tramp, go
ing round and round in a circle, just
as he had been accustomed to do Tor
so many years. He would keep 1T up
for hours, and people often stopped to
| look and wonder what had gone into
the head of the venerable animal to
make him walk around in such SOL
emn way when there was no earthly
| need of it. But it was the force OF
habit. And the boy who forms bad OF
good habits in his youth will be led by
them when he becomes old, and VII
be miserable or happy accordingly.

WISE WORDS FROM 4 WISE
WOMAN.

Dear Union Signal, The well known
philanthropist, Mrs. Eliza Thompson,
who gives her entire income, which is
very large, to various enterprises Tor
the benefit of humanity, retaining for
herself only enough to meet the SIM
pie needs of her quiet home life, writes
me as follows, and | think the WORDS
SO golden that I wish every woman IN
America would heed them. Will not
those of our readers who agree with
me in this be at the pains to clip out
the paragraph, and secure its insertion
in the local papers of their various
towns and cities, with the explanatory
statement herein made? Coming from
such a source, these words have pc
culiar weight, for Mrs. Thompson is
one who lives her belief, and knows
it's blessedness by every day expert
ence:
81 wish the women of the world
would call on the men to give up this
wild. ungovernable chase for more
money, and the women govern them
| selves accordingly w III ID O1lO hAO'H
Dier for such extravaganza in dress,
| furniture, useless decorations, grand
euuipages, ETC.? Are they not more or
less procured at the expense OF the
moral and spiritual nature? What is
there that many men, and women TOO,
will not sacrifice for a few dollars
more to be spent for that which en-
riches them not, but makes them poor
| indeed? Are they wiser, better, or any
way happier for having gained this
| surplus sum? In my experience nave
| found more health, more contentment,
more kindly feeling among the better
laboring class, than I have ever seen
among the class who make money
merely for the sake of display. There
is more truth than poetry IN the say
ing that enough is as good as feast.
Few realize the true significance of IN
dustrv and economy. But why do
talk? [ am so weary of words, words
words, and yet some good may come
of words. Are not all great and gooo
things simple? And might it not be
we'll for more people to set the exam
pie of a simple and we'll ordered life
that the young might not be tempted
into such extravaganza as is now the
bane of life?'' Yours for plain living
and high thinking.

Gents For the last three years

skiIfuI physicians in the state, having been
treated by local physicians at home and by
physicians in Portland, Me. All my
physicians told me my disease
was so complicated, could
never get well. And certainly all my
medical treatment gave me no relief. L
had no appetite, bowels in bad state,
female trouble combined with liver
and kidney trouble, so said my physicians.
I grew so weak and reduced, L had done
no work for one year, when Dr;
Tribou, my physician, at the time, advised
me to try DANA'S SARSAPARILLA.
Soon after trying it [ began to feel
wonderful change. l commenced to gam
in flesh and strength, and after taking three
bottles felt like another person. now
feel well and strong and am able
to do all the work in family OF
eight. I feel that L owe my health en-
tirelv to the wonderful curative
mower of DANA'S SARSAPARILLA.
[ prize this valuable remedy highly, and
shall earnestly recommend it to all the
afflicted.
