Foxcroft, Me-, Feb. Z. 1882. His thirst
for knowledge WAS SO great that by his
own exertions he paid his way through
college and was graduated with high
honcrs, having been the Latin saluta-
torian of his class. With the pertinaci-
ty that has always characterized his
actions he taught school at Hallowell,
Me-, afterward becoming principal Of
the Lewiston high school. AT the close
Of the war, through which he fought
with great credit, he was appointed
clerk Of the United States Circuit and
District Courts Of Georgia, resigning
this position in 1887 to become United
States Marshal. The next year was
signalized by his bringing Maj. Nc
Kinley to Georgia for the purpose Of
addressing the Chautauqua. Col. Buck

PEHNYRoYAL OIL
First Made on q Large Scale in Guern.

oCJ Nouukys OuAo-
In the northeastern corner Of Guern-
sey County, Ohio, is located Oxford
Township, once famous. and still
famed as the center of the production
Of pennyroyal oil, the pungent and
fragrant herb. which usually flourish
es best on the leanest soil.
And yet. this insignificant herb was
the principal factor in making Oxford
Township the most fiourishing and sub
stantial community In that part of the
State during the first half of the pres
ent century.
The pennyrOyal industry was open.
ed by Benjamin BOrton. who emigrated
from New Jersey. and set about raising
a family in the trackless woods. Nj.
Borton was evidently a man Of prac-
tical ideas. and when. after clearing
away the forests from the hillsides
and turning up the soil for wheat
corn and garden truck, he discovered
that the pennyroyal outgrew nearly ev-
erything else, and he was infinitely
richer in its pungent oil than anything
he had ever heard or read about. He

Marking Linen.

The marking of linen is quite . busi-
ness in these days Of sumptuous trous-
seaus. In stores which make a special
ty of fine napery orders are taken for
the working of letters when the linen
is selected, SO that it can be sent home
In boxes ready for use. One fancee
will choose two unpretentious initials
placed side by side and worked in plain
raised satin stitch. Another chooses
larger letters, to be intricately interlac-
ed and elaborately worked with both
solid and open laced stitches. Huge or
namental monOgrams are also conspic-
uous In napery and bed linen, as well
as on tea cloths. Three letters are a
good rule In case of house linen, one
for the respective initials Of the Chris
tian name of the bride and groom and
the third for the family name.

Chormo Away th0. WhooPinG Cough.
W. R. Fanu, a writer on some Of the
phases of Irish life. tells Of two ways
in which the simple peasantry Of that
country treat the whooping cough,
which Is generally known among them
as chin cough. One Is this: II anyone
should be seen riding on a piebald
horse the father or mother of the per-
son affected runs after him. crying:
You that ride the piebald horse, what's 8
good for the chin cough" Whatever
the rider suggests Is procured. and CIV
en- to the sufferer. This remedy Is con-
sidered q very sure one by the peasant
ry. but is difficult to procure. as a man
riding a piebald horse Is not met With
every day.
The other mode Of curing the diseaso
Is not considered so certain, but can
more easily be procured. that Is, pass
ing the child three times over and un-
der q donkey. Some dOnkeys are bat
ter than others. l remember. says q
Belfast correspondent of the Lancet,
n famous one in the southern part Of
County Down. in which the rustics had
great faith, and lie Fanu tells Of one
in County Cork SO famous for curative
powers that the owner, Ned Sullivan,
| supported himself and a large family
| on what this remarkable donkey earned
for him. This man used to perambu-
late the city Of Cork and the surround
ing neighborhood with his donkey, cry
ing out: "Will anyone come under my
donkey for chin coughT'
Two other charms which I have
known 10 be used in County Down for
this disease-and II Is curious that
whoooping coughs and erysipelas (the
rose as the Irish peasants often call it,
are the affections most treated by
charms-are the administration to the
patient Of two kinds Of foods (solid and
| liquid obtained from two first cousins
who are married, and soup made from
the tails Of mice. Staying. sevral years
| ago, with an uncle and aunt, who were
