My son is sentenced to be shot tomorrow
morning at 6 for sleeping at his post.
Will you kindly see President Lincoln
at once and intercede till | can reach
Washington to present evidence which
will clearly prove my sons innocence:
I knew that if the message was COM
PEELED to wait its turn it would not reach
Senator Fessenden till too late for any
hope of reaching the president, to say
nothing of getting d reprieve sent to the
line of battle where the son was.
Il said to myself: Here is q human
life hanging by a thread. Shall | cut the
thread by letting the message take its
turn? Nc, | couldn't. | violated the
rules and telegraphed the solemn mes
sage to all the hotels in Washington till

George Washington, while attending
a swell reception at Newport. noticed
that the daughter Of his host, Miss
Ellery, was suffering from a severe sore
throat and could not speak above a
whisper. General Washington, observ-
ing this embarrassment of his youthful
hostess, said to her:
"Miss Ellery, You seem to be suffering
very much; what is the natter"
Miss Ellely told him the cause of her
trouble, upon which tlc general said to
her:
So suffer very Frequently from a sore
throat and take II remedy which | find
very useful, and which | would recon-
mend to you We're | not sure You would
not take it,"
"But | am sure" replied Miss Ellery,
''that | would take any remedy that
General Washington would propose"
"Well then" said the general. sit is
this onions boiled in molasses. 1t has
cured me often"
Miss Ellery took the remedy and, OF
course, was cured.-Exchange.

a Dugont Home in the Southwest.

Into the face Of one Of the low verti-
cal earth walls Of the broken land the
homemaktr cuts a hole rs a Yankee
farmer digs a cellar for a hillside barn.
Though rarely larger than 10 by II feet
on the bottom, these cellarliEe holes are
sometimes 12 by IS. with the depth of
the hole rs mach rs 5 or 6 feet, and some
times IS by Is large, with the long way
of the hole lying along the front of the
natural earth wall.
The digging completed, trees are cot
to furnish logs for buiIding III the front
of the home. and for use as ~rafters,
placed a foot or SO apart ger the top.
The limbs of the trees. with some long
grass from u moist place. if any can be
found, are used to make a r"de thatch
over the r~afters, and then the sods, cut
out and carefully saved when the hole
was dug, are placed on top Of the
thatch, while the earth from the hole is
heaped on top of all into Il grave shaped
mound. A blanket is hung in the door

hoops will serve, and there is the dug

An tnevitable conalct Pendlag.

Today, as yesterday. rs tomorrow, and
as for a long title to COME, tie situation
Of France and Germany forms the great
subject of anxiety which is imposed
upon the meditation Of all European
statesmen. AT no other point is it fore
seen that war can break out. Russia las
great ambitions and Italy has strong de-
sires, but Russia is for years doomed
merely to cherish ambitions, for she can
not realize them single handed. and it
does not depend upon her to provoke d
general war, which would be one result
Of her combined action with France;
while as for Italy. she will never venture
to give the signal of war, for if she did
she would be left to herself and would
be speedily crushed It could be solely
as the result Of a general war that Italy
could obtain her share, and in the pres
ent state of her alliances she could take
that share only from France, so that a
general war alone could procure it for
her, inasmuch as, if she were left single
handed, she would not be able to over
come France.
Neither Austria nor England dreams
Of war. 1t is therefore still, as twenty
years ago., France and Germany who
could occasion war: because, whatever
may be alleged, whatever may be pro
claimed or whatever may be concealed,
these two nations desire war-war, first
for it's own sake, and next for the rest;
and if, in order to have done with this
everlasting Franco.German nightmare,
Europe could nnw promise to fold her
arms, and afterward to intervene merely
as arbiter, war would break out to-mor-
row between France and Germany, for
the fatality of war haunts and overrides
both nat7ons.-De Blowitz in Harper's.

HOW's
Your Liver ?

Is the Oriental salutation,
knowing that good health
cannot exist without a
healthy Liver. When the
Liver is torpid the Bow
els are sluggish and con-
stipated, the food lies
in the stomach undi-
gested, poisoning the
blood; frequent headache
ensues; a feeling of lassi-
tude, dependency and
nervousness indicate how
the whole system is de-
ranged. Simmons Liver
Regulator has been the
means Of restoring more
people to health and
happiness by giving them
healthy Liver than any
agency known on earth.
1t acts with extraor-
binary power and efficacy.
NEVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED,
As 4 general family remedy for dyspepsia,
Torpid Liver, Constipation, etc, / hardly ever
use anything else, and have never been dis
appointed in the effect produced; it seems to
be almost a perfect cure for all diseases Of the
Stomach and Bowels.

Pre-eYOlutiOnarY Errors.

Most of the shortcomings of the old
method Of historical writing resulted
from the fact that the world was looked
at from a ~staticai point Of view, or as if a
picture of the world were a series of de-
tached pictures of things at rest. The
human race and its terrestrial habitat
were tacitly ASSUMED to have been al
ways very much the same as at present.
One age was treated much like another,
and when comparisons were made it was
after a ann as different from the
modern comparative method as alchemy
was different from chemistry.
AS mems studies had not yet been
turned in such a direction as to enable
them to appreciate the immensely of
the results hat are wrought by the
cumulative action Of minute causes,
they were disposed to attach too much
Importance to the catastrophe and mar
v~elous; and the agency of powerful in
dividuals-which upon any sound theory
must be regarded as Of great Importance
they not only magnifed unduly but
rendered it unintelligible when they
sought to transform human heroes into
demi-gods.
It thus appears that the way in which
our forefathers treated history was part
and parcel Of the way in which they re-
garded the world. Whether in history
or in the physical sciences, they found
themselves confronted by a seemingly
chaotic mass Of facts with which they
could deal only in & vague and cropping
manner and in small detached groups
