Queer People and Customs in Our O,

Queer People ana Customs in Our Own Land.
 ''I shall not soon forget hunting ex.
 cursiOn l made through southern Indi-
 ana" said Prof. John Francis to re- porter for the Chicago Evening News.
 ''Of all the queer people and funny sights l met the qucerest there. We
 were travelling by carriage over what the citizens called the backbones of White river. l would call them immense ridges, with scarcely room for q wagon
 road OF top and occasionally q house
 on either side. No, not house, but a
 shanty. We had been travelling over
 these ridges or 'backbones' for several
 hours and became very thirsty, but
 could not see the sign of a spring any
 where. We at last drove up in front of
 one of these shantics. 1 alighted from
 the wagon, stepped to the door to
 knock, but before did so I noticed the contents of the room. A table with the remains of meal was standing in the middle of the floor; baby shoes, buck cts, spools, tin cans and various other objects were scattered over the floor. In fact, the room presented the appear ancc of a secondhand store after fire. In answer to my knock some one in the rear of the house called: Come in l came in,' or at least tried to. When I reached the door at the opposite side of the room and looked out saw piled on a half finished porch several straw beds and upon the beds was piled the entire family, taking an afternoon sun bath. Immediately upon seeing mo young woman arose to her feet and said: What do you want?' I told her that-I would like to find some drinking water for myself and friends. She did not say word Iut came toward me. brushed by me through the door and with a re- markable agility lodged between that heterogeneous mass on the floor to the other side of the room where hung a gOurd dipper. She handed it to me. with the remark: 'Jist go down under the hill and help ycrsclf, but don't fur git to bring back the gourd.' I did as requested and found delicious water. Upon going little farther on the road we saw another shanty. Presently, as we came near it, we saw q small boy come running around the corner of the shanty, after him came another and another until six had passed, when large woman put in an appearance with a raised club in her hands. It was a thoroughly comical sight, but imrnedi- atcly on seeing us the woman dropped : l.. .,1,, |, l. l.. f ing near and made it squeal for dear life. One of the little girls grabbed the pig in her arm and after strolling it and kissing it placed it in a box which con- taincd straw as tenderly as though she had been some fashionable miss hand ling a one hundred dollar pug"

Circular Advertising is a Waste.

The briefer your circular is the more
chance it has Of being perused; the prettier
1t looks the greater chance it has of being
saved from the ash barrel, but both brevity
and beauty considered it is pretty safe to
say that not fifteen per cent of them will be
even noticed The world is flooded with
that kind of stuff nowadays, and those who
try to convince you that circularizng, I'M
assisted by judicious newspaper advertis-
ing, has any value at all are considerably
out in their calculations. Some years ago |
was connected with large patent medicine
house which tried this system of house-to-
house distribution of pamphlets advertising
its preparations. Out of curiosity to note
the effect of the scheme, followed three of
the distributors down populous thorough
fare and noticed that wherever the little
books were given to people on the street, in
nine cases out of ten they were either
dropped on the sidewalk or thrown into
the street. The next day / went over the
same ground early and found scores of the
pretty little books-whch cost us half
cent each-either thrown out in the areas
or showing themselves on the top of ash
barrels The only respectable advertising
for which anybody has any regard is legiti-
mate newspaper advertising and it is also
the best paying and most effective in the
end Printers Ink.

General Ayers War Record.

In answer to the charges brought by
the Ne,o York Sun against General
Russell A. Alger of Michigan, the
Detroit Tribune publishes General
Ayers war record, which covers two
pages of that paper, and purports to
give all the papers now on file in the
war department relative to the alb
sence, promotions, and final discharge
of the general. These documents show
that General Alger left his division
August %, 1864, at Harper's Ferry;
that, under date of September 16, Cen
eral Custer reported him to General
Merritt as absent without leave from
the muster-rolls, stating that it was the
third occurrence of the kind on Ayers
part; that General Merritt forwarded
Clusters report to General Torbert,
chief of cavalry, recommending severe
measures; that General Torbert sent
the same to General Sheridan, recon-
mending dismissal from the service;
that General Sheridan referred the mat.
ter to the war department, September
Is, and that, under date of September
%, the documents were returned with
the statement that General Alger had
been honorably discharged September
20. The reply to the SUMS attack is
considered perfectly satisfactory by
General Ayers friends. The Sun,
however, insists that every statement
made by that paper month ago, "and
since that time denied or evaded by
this self-nominated candidate for presi-
dent of the United States, was true and
exactly true, except as to minor details
hereinafter specified" Editor Dana
adds, significantly, that he will have
more to say on the matter when he has
digested the full text of the reply.

COnfederateS We're Sober,

DO you know" said well-known
eX confederate officer, that the con-

eminent in the world that really en-
forced prohibition? During the war
the government prohibited The manu-
facture Of liquor in Virginia 1t was
here that the army was, and the same
prohibition extended to the other South
ern states. This law was made be-
cause the government wanted all the
grain to feed the people. The further
result was that the confederate army
was the soberest army that the world
ever had. The little liquor that could
be had was only obtained upon the
prescription of surgeon. The first
three barrels of liquor for medicinal
purposes were sent under guard through
West Virginia consignt d to a leading
surgeon. They were carted over the
mountains and several days We're occu-
pied in the trip. Al their destination
the barrels were found TO be empty.
AT trst this was mystery, bu examin-
alton shows that gimlet hole had been
bored in each cask, the liquor drawn
out and the hole neatly plugged. The
whole battalion sent along as guards
for this liquor had in this way swal.

price. High-priced farms and enterprises
that are now doing profitable business are
not within the scope of the work.

board previous to April 10. Those desiring
to advertise farms will, on application, be
furnished with blank for making descrip-
ton. All advertisements must contain

charge is necessary in order to supplement-
the limited fund at the disposal of the board,
to carry out the plan. 1t covers about one
third of the actual expense. A limited
number of short descriptive articles of To-
calities possessing peculiar advantages for
any industry, will be inserted.

Ny dear, dumb friend, low lying there,

Glad partner Of my home and fare,
My shadow in the street,

Where love and loyal homage shine,
And wonder where the difference lies
Between your soul and mine.
For all of good that have found
Within myself or human kind,
Hath royalty informed and crowned
Your gentle heart and mind.
l scan the whole broad earth around
For that one heart which, leal and true,
Bears friendship without end or bound,
And find the prize in you.

Nor cruel loss, nor scott, nor pride,
Nor beggary, nor dungeon-bars,
Can move you from my side
AS patient under injury
AS any Christian saint of old,
As gentle as lamb with me,
But with your brothers bold;
More playful than frolic boy,
More watchful than a sentinel,
By day and night your constant joy
To guard and please me well.
/ clasp your head upon my breast
The while you whine and lick my hand
And thus our friendship is confessed,
And thus we understand!
All, Blanco Did worship God
AS truly as you worship me,
Or follow where my Master trod
With your humility,
Did sit fondly at his feet
AS you, dear Blanco, sit at mine,
And watch him with a love as sweet,
My life would grow divine.
