X LAMENr FOR THE OLD DAYS.

We were getting along very happily and contentedly. Wethoughtthe Golden
 Gate was truly our gate. We were
 quite well off. Our women were fair,
 and the men took care of themselves
 against huge odds cheerfully. But we
 found out. We ateof the apple of know
 ledge and were driven out of Eden by
 the flaming sword of science. Now we
 merely cling to the tattered hem of an
 outWorn existance, expecting every mo-
 ment to have our feeble hold relaxed
 (by the evil effects of some adulterant) and our miserable lives extingushed forever by cloud of germs. First, the
 dairies were condemned. The harmless milk, that had nourished us, became a Enoxious draught. The gentle COW, found Iout, became, as all of her sex do, when found out, a rampant menace to life and digestion. Those babes who had formally slipped away from their mothers arms without any fuss now were snatched away by cruel disease adorned with afearful name andthe de- crease in mortality was fully made up Tor by the agony or Knowing why. And this fever of finding out has gone from
 one thing to another. We are told that toilet preparations have wood alcohol in them, poisonous to drink, and the
 mere fact that people never do drink toilet waters has simply added sus-
 pense to our misery, for no one knows
 when we might quaff some complexion

 ed our whiskey. Those jovial souls who
 have tippled and toppled, and gone to
 their reward, red-nosed, gouty, and leaving an aromatic memory, now fall
 incontinent before cirrhosis of the liver and acute alcoholism brought on by
 adulterations of methyl alcohol. What is the good of knowing that of every hundred drinks at least S5 are rank poison? We were happy before. But the

Give us back the old econo- mical days, when every man made his due profit by sanding the sugar. We were none the wiser, and, therefore, none the worse.

HARMONY A MATTER OF TIME.
Some Facts That Pliehted Lovers
Should Remember,

Should Remember.
The harmonizing of the PERSONAL.
ties OF even the best mated couples is
usually work of time Before they
can learn readily to make those little
concessions which keep two natures
in harmony there is generally more
or less twanging of false chords, and
II these false notes can be eliminated
before marriage so much the better.
Besides 1t is more difficult to sink
ones pride before marriage than
after, and the object lesson is, accord
ingly, the more valuable, says the
Chicago Chronicle.
Quarrels, it should be remembered.
are ills which fail to the lot of most
of us. They should be treated care
fully and quickly, as one treats a cut
finger. Neglected, a cut finger may
lead to serious complications, endan.
gering ones life. In the same way
httie quarrels may endanger ones
life happiness.
All lovers quarrel. but some make
the foolish mistake of parting at once
without allowing time for reflection.
If two people become separated and
can still think with affection of each
other after two or three years alb
sence they are fitted to marry. It is
foolish and absurd to allow pride to
stand in the way.
Love renewed is better than first
love, more sincere. 1t is love that is
refined by years of reflection and is
the golden output of pure affection.

One Christmas Week.

Speaking Of Christmas week" said
Sergeant Sam Grimshaw, companies
b and c of our regiment, the Fifty
second Ohio, were on picket duty on
Christmas eve. 1862, on the College
pike, west of Nashville. 1t was cold
for that latitude, and we had a good
fire. Doc Mercer wrapped up in his
blanket, and lay down, feet to the fire.
AS he went to sleep he Strengthened
out getting his feet so close to the
fire that the heat drew the soles of his
shoes off, and almost blistered his
feet. When he awoke he couldn't
grasp the situation and jumped up and
went through so many contortions
that the boys thought he had gone
daft. They didn't know he had hot
feet and at first he had little sym
pathy or assistance. But when the
boys understood the case, Doc was
well cared for and went to camp the
next morning with his feet done up in
rags.
While Bob Mercer was standing

and was returning without the coun-
tersign, but pretty well loaded with
commissary whisky. He undertook to
ride through the lines, whether or no,
and Bob pulled down on him, but his
musket missed fire. The two men
standing with him came to a ready,
when the colonel sobered on the in
slant wheeled his horse and wanted
TO know if they were going to kill
him then and there. Mercer answered
yes, If he tried to force his way
through the lines. He went back to
headquarters and in about an hour
came out with the countersign. Who
was he? We never knew. The cav.
airy regiment was at the college,
ready for the advance the morning
after Christmas. and went out of our
range to do good deal of fighting in
