one believed that he was the man to
kill himself. Hertlein had lived 20
years in the neighborhood, and three
years in the house in which he died.
He rented rs acres of fair farming
land. In 1874 he married Elizabeth
Abram, a big-framed Irish woman. She
died three months ago of dropsy. Soon
after the woman's death the widower
began to behave strangely. The house
contained a vast accumulation of rub
bish. It was lever swept or busted.
Hertlein saved tons of valueless stuff
books, newspapers, string, tin cans,
cigar boxes and the like. The bed
clothing and the linen look as If they
had not been cleaned for years. Dust
an inch thick overs everything.
; One day the old man came from his
den of a room dressed in a way that
startled wen the phlegmatic hired
man. He had on an old bingham
bodice and a frayed skirt. Tied around
his waist was a dirty apron. The skirt
came to only within six inches of the
floor, and his feet, Rivinski saw, were
in a pair of rubber top boots.
"These clothes were good enough for
my wife," said the old man, "and they
are good enough for me. I might just
as well wear them out"
There was something ludicrous about
his appearance in his wife's clothes. He
was SO years old, and he looked at
Least go, and he wore a white beard.
The beard and the skirt seemed to Ri
vinski an impossible combination, but
it did not strike Hertlein that his garb
lacked dignity, and he went to work and
| washed the dishes after each meal as
he had seen his wife do. They were
the only things in the house that were
ever washed.

The Farmer and Wares.

While Mr.. Bryan is telling the
farmers that the reason they cannot
sell their products at a profit is be-
cause the purchasers of these prod
ucts buy them with 1OO-cent dollars,
the reports of employers of labor ex
plain exactly what is the matter with
the wage Garner, and consequently
what is the matter with the farmer.
When we take the public statement
of the Cambria company and find
that this concern alone paid $685., 600
less wages in 1893 than in 1892. and
81 500, 900 less wages in 1894 than
in 1892, we should think the farmers
would 60 no further for an explana

Crowds Not Always Votes.

Philadelphia Ledger-Mr. Bryan
will probably learn in November that
curious crowds do not always mean
votes; in proof Of this the Montgom-
cry (Ala.) Advertiser Dem. says:
"In 1860 Stephen A. Douglas spoke
from the capital steps in this city.
Every foot of space to the gate in
front and to the fence or either side
was occupied. There must have
been over $4,000 people present. At
night, when Mr.. Douglas was on the
boat en- route to Mobile, the crowd
that called.on him was SO great that
the floor of the cabin saloon gave way
and lumber of people received in
juries, Mr.. Douglas among the num-
Der. When election day rolled around.
in q few weeks, Mr.. Douglas received
1873 votes in Montgomery county and
only $4,000 in the whole state"

On Tbursday, October lst, it was my

On Thursday, October LIST, u was my
pleasure to attend most agreeable
social gathering at the pleasant country
home of Mrs. Zimmerman. The old
place was looking its prettiest at this
most inviting season of the year, the day
also being most lovely one.
1t was surprise ON Mrs. Zimmerman
vino was getting ready for an extended
visit East. with relatives and friends.
Her old friends feeling sorry to lose her
from their midst, concluded they would
surprise her with farewell visit, and
wish her God speed on her journey. And
a perfect surprise it proved; she having
no idea of our intentions; and wien her
friends between fifteen and twenty (mOst
of them old timers) came flocking in
about eleven O'Clock, she hardly knew
what to make of it, but welcomed us
warmly Notwithstanding. After expla-
nations, and greetings all around, we
settled ourselves down to having a good
old social time together.
About two o'clock we partOok OF a
bouptiful dinner. The table was cover
ed with all the substantials and delicacies
one could wish; 10 which all did ample
justice, with appetites sharpened by the
cool country air. The afternoon was
passed by some Of the guests strolling
under the trees or sitting in the shade.
Afterward when in the parlor the piano
was opened and we were treated to some
good selections of music, both vocal and
instrumental.
In pleasant conversation the hours
passed away. Old times were referred
to, bringing up the past, with its lights
and shadows-by gone memories SEEM
ingly drawing us still closer together
The parting scene, was one of peace and
good will, which was participated in by
all, causing us to vote it unanimously the
pieasantest event of the season.
We hope to welcome our dear friend
back again, in the future with feelings
Just as kind and tender.
