The hope of the nation lies in the
education of its people. An ignorant
class is, of necessity, a dangerous one,
and every good citizen should lend
his influence toward lifting it out of
its ignorance. The free school sys
tem should be universal. Every dol
lar spent upon it is quickly repaid in
the greater security afforded to socie
ty, and in the consequent reduction
of expenditures for the suppression
and punishment of crime. Men of
property may grumble over what
to them, seems high taxation but if
•they stop to consider the general
resultsflowingfrom the education of
the community in which their inter
ests are located, they will find that,
after all, the investment is one of the
best they can make. If rich men
pay more for the support of public
schools than the poor men, they have
more property to be made secure
through the general intelligence they
help to disseminate. It costs less to
govern an educated community than
an ignorant one, for every intelligent
man, if he has a fair degree of morality,
becomes, as it were, the police or
guardian of his own actions. "Where
are your police to maintain order
said Sir JVJorton Peto to the Mayor of
Lawrence, Mass., as he rode with
him through the streets of that city.
'There they are," said the Mayor,
pointing to the troops of boys and
girls returning from school. "We
depend upon intelligence for the pres
ervation of order."

From the Commercial Advertiser.
Bundy has been married two weeks
and has left his wife. Bundy is a lit
tle man, and his wife weighs two hun
dred and forty pounds, and was the
relict of the late Peter Potts. About
ten days after marriage Bundy was
surprised, on awakening in the morn
ing, to find his better half sitting up
in bed crying as if her heart would
break. Astonished, he asked the
cause of her sorrow, but receiving no
reply he began to surmise that there
must be some secret on her mind
that she withheld from him, that was
the cause of her anguish, so he re
marked to Mrs. B. that, as they were
married, she should tell him the
cause of her grief, so, if possible, he
could avert it, and after considerable
coaxing, he elicited the following
from her:
"Last night I dreamed I was single,
and as I walked through a well light
ed street I came to a store where a
sign in front advertised husbands for
sale. Thinking it curious, I enter
ed, and ranged along the wall on
either side were men with prices af
fixed to them. Such beautiful men
some for 81,000, some for $500, and
so on to $150. And as I had not
that amount I could not purchase."
Thinking to console her, Bundy
placed his arm lovingly around her,
and asked:
"And did you see any men like me
there?"
"Oh, yes," she replied, drawing
away from him, "lots like you, they
were tied up in bunches like as
paragus, and sold for ten cents per
bunch."
Bundy got up and went to see his
lawyer as to whether he had sufficient
ground for divorce.

One day last month when trade was
dull, a Vicksburg grocery clerk pro
cured a piece of soleleather from a
Shoemaker, painted it black, and laid
it aside for future use. Within a few
days an old chap from back in the
country came in and inquired for a
plug of chewing-tobacco. The piece
of sole-leather was tied up, paid for,
and the purchaser started for home.
At the end of the sixth day he re
turned, looking downcast and deject
ed, and walking into the store he in
quired of the clerk:
"'Member that terbacker I got here
the other day
"Yes."
"Well, was that a new brand
"No—same old brand."
"Regular plug-terbacker, was it?"
"Yes."
"Well, then, it's me it's right
here in my jaws," sadly replied the
man. "I knowed I wua gitin' party
old, but I was alius handy on bitin'
plug. I never seed a plug afore this
one that I couldn't tear to pieces at
one chaw. I sot my teeth on to this
one, and bit and pulled and twisted,
like a dog at a root, and I've kept
biting and pulling for six days, and
thar she am now, the same as the day
you sold her to me!"
"Seems to be good plug," remarked
the clerk, as he smelled of the coun
terfeit.
"She's all right it's me that's
failing!" exclaimed the old man.
"Pass me out somefinecut,and I'll go

•Col. G. E.Waring, Jr., writes in
the October Atlantic as follows:—
The best practical statement I have
met about ventilation was contained
in the remark of a mining engineer in
Pennsylvania: "Air is like a rope
you can pull it better than you can
push it." All mechanical appliances
for pushing air into a room or a house
are disappointing. What we need to
do is to pull out the vitiated air al
ready in the room the fresh supply
will take care of itself if means for
its admission are provided.
It has been usual to withdraw the
air through openings near the ceiling,
that is, to carry off the warmer and
therefore lighter portions, leaving ,the
colder strata at the bottom of the
room, with their gradual accumula
tion of cooled carbonic acid undis
turbed. Much the better plan would
be to draw this lower air out from a
point near the floor, allowing the up
per and warmer portions to descend
and take its place.
An open fire, with a large chimney
throat, is the best ventilator for any
room the one half or two thirds of
the heat carried up the chimney is
the price paid for immunity from dis
ease and large though this seems
from its daily draft on the wood-pile
or the coal-bin, it is trifling when
compared with doctors' bills and with
the loss of strength and efficiency that
invariably result from living in un
ventilated apartments.

While waiting at the depot yester
day, a gentleman, whose watch was
out of order, applied to a dashing
young colored man to know the time
of day, the said young colored man
having a grand watch-chain dangling
across his breast.
"De time, sah de time ob day
replied the young man.
"Yes I want to know how near
train time it is,"
"Well, boss," said the darkey,
slowly pulling at the chain "I
can't give you de time ob day exact
ly, but I'se got some ob de bestest
kind o' chewing tobacco in dis yere
watch-case!"—Vicksburg Herald.

Yesterday, when an old lady on
the Baker-st. cars got out a nickle to
pay her fare, a gentleman sitting op

"What you want she demanded,
giving him a keen look.
"I'll pay your fare for you," he po
litely replied.
"I'd just like to see you or any
one else get hold of my money!"
she exclaimed. "I've traveled afore
this, and I know what I'm about, I

And she stalked forward and de

—The last battle of which we have
heard, was a little but fierce one
and it was all about a woman.
Twenty wagons were en route for
Dallas, Texas. In the train was a
young widow to whom one of the pil
grims paid his devotions. She rather
encouraged him until he became too
ardent a wooer, when she denounced
him to another admirer. The caravan
was divided in sentiment. One party
sided with the widow one with the
poor man and one was neutral.
The peaceful brigade left determined
to have no hand in the affair but
they had not gone far when they
heard the sound of pistol shots, the
battle having begun, while the screams
of the fair sex rent the air. About
15 men engaged in the combat. Three
were killed several wounded it was
a drawn fight after all but what be
came of the widow is not recorded.

—It is a man's own fault if he is
unhappy with his wife, in nine cases
out of ten. It is a very exceptional
woman who will not be all she can
to an attentive husband and a more
exceptionable one who will not be
very disagreeable if she finds herself
wilfully neglected. It would be very
easy to hate a man who, haying
bound a woman to him, made no ef
fort to make her happy hard not to
love one who was constant and ten
der and when a woman loves she
always strives to please.
—The bankrobbery in Huntington,
W. Va., for audacity and cool, calcu
lating cunning eclipsed anything of
the kind in recent times. The rob
bers mado the most elaborate prepa
rations, taking time beforehand to
get their horses in condition. They
entered the bank in broad .day-light,
compelled the Cashier, at the muzzle
of their revolvers, to open the vaults.
They were disappointed at the sum
secured, and examined the books to
ascertain whether they had been de
ceived. They said the bank was
"mighty poor," and a fraud upon hon
est men—like themselves then they
sorrowfully made away in sight of the
entire population, having first given
the Cashier his liberty and told him
to "yell" tor assistance. They were
pursued by several hundred men, but
at last accounts two of them were
still at large. One of them, as al
ready reported in the dispatches, was
overtaken and killed. He proved to
be one of the notorious James boys.
Crimes of this kind are happily of
less frequent occurrence than they
used to be and there is little reason
to apprehend that they will become
popular. Society in America is too
well organized and too much attached
to law and order to permit them.
The James boys, who are almost the
only highwaymen in the country,
are being killed off one by one and
when they are gone it will be a long
time probably before successors rise
up to fill their places.
—A certain Whitehaller is in the
habit of using the common expression,
"By the-way," to a considerable ex
tent. Some time ago, during a relig
ious awakening, he experienced a
change of heart, and began attend
ance at protracted meetings. Finally,
one evening, he gained courage
enough to rise and offer prayer. He
did well until the closing up, when
he abruptly sat down without the
usual "Amen." As he dropped into
his seat the omission occurred to him,
when he arose quickly, and with the
index finger of his right hand ex
tended toward the presiding pastor,
ejaculated, "Oh, by-the-way—Amen,"
and immediately resumed his seat.—

When potatoes are grown exten
sively it has become a common and
very good practice to have a few acres
of early potatoes ready to clear off
and sow to wheat. This can readily
be done with Early Rose, and some
times with early planted later varie
ties. It is best, however, not to try to
get out a large field- of potatoes in
time for wheat, as the labor is so
great that it is apt to delay wheat
sowing till late in the season. Wher
ever ground can be fitted for sowing
by the 25th of September, a potato
crop makes an excellent preparation
for wheat. The ground is in the best
possible mechanical condition from
previous cultivation, and if the soil is
rich enough a good crop is apt to re
sult.
With the complete pulverization of
the soil, as hoeing, cultivating and
digging, little after preparation is
necessary to fit it for wheat. The
old-fashioned way, both on corn and
potato ground, was to lightly culti
vate and sometimes only to drag the
surface, sowing the wheat broadcast
and covering with the drag. This was
reckoned a slipshod and lazy practice,
and therefore abandoned, but we re
member very well that some extra
large crops were grown in this way,
and it is quite certain that the deeper
cultivation which has become fashion
able has not been so generally suc
cessful. Wherein is the advantage
of plowing potato ground for wheat
If properly cultivated during the sum
mer there will be few or no weeds in
potatoes at digging time, and light
cultivation, or even dragging to level
the surface, is all that is needed—
much better, we suspect, than a deep
er plowing, which turns the finely
pulverized surface soil to the bottom
of the furrow.—Rural New-Yorker*

Then pour it over the tomatoes and
let them stand two days, as before
boil and skim again. Then place on
large earthen plates or dishes, and
put them in the sun to dry, which
will take about a week, after which
pack them down in small wooden

From the World's Dispensary Printing Office
and Bindery, Buffalo, N. Y., we hare received "The
People's Common Sense Medical Adviser, in plain
English or, Medicines Simplified," by B. V.
Pierce, M. D., Counselor-in-chief of the Board of
Physicians and Surgeons at the World's Dispensary.
Whoever helps humanity in its struggle with its
inherent weakness and diseases, to bear or cure, is
its benefactor. Ignorance is not only of itself a
cause of disease and morality, but it is the enemy
of every effort to cure or mitigate. Nothing will so
speedily remove this cause as knowledge (an ele
mentary one at least) of the diseases to which we
are heir, as well as those superinduced by our own
imprudence. Dr. Pierce has rendered, in our judg
ment, a benefactor's service, both to the afflicted
and to the profession, in his diagnosis of the dis
eases treated of, and in the presentation of the
philosophic principles involved in their cause and
removal. He is sparing of remedies, and usually
prescribes such as are safe in unskilled hands. As
a book merely of abstract knowledge, it is exceed
ingly readable and interesting, especially the fol
lowing subjects'.—Cerebral Physiology, Human
Temperaments, Pseudo, Hygiene, the Nursing, of
the Sick, Sleep, Pood. Ventilation, etc. In one
chapter on another subject, so delicate in its nature
that it is shut up beyond the domain of warning to
all but physicians, so accursed in -its results in
modern society, he is moie explicit, and alike true
to God, to virtue, to life, and to society, shows the
truth as presented in the teachings of Scripture,—
that life begins with conception,—with great force,
to which are added faithful warnings.
