Farmer: I lutvo noticed in your injHjr nn nrticle on the alxive, but I difTur intra tho writer, und tnink that uirls should Iw nllowed to rend so ns to know both hldus of all mutter of iub lic Interest, for where we try to keep them from reading, s:iy the -Vfir Xorlliirtst they would form the idea thnt it is fiotnettiitiK out of the way, liave great unxiety to read it, und hide it to read in secret. I have known girl hide forbidden volume:, ami read them in secret, hutn mother ought to have .enough influence over her girls that they could read all such journals with out injury. I believe that they would .not necefwarily favor woman's rights juifter reading the Ac-jc Xorthtrcrt, if the influence of a mother was carefully ex pressed the other way. And I say if Mrs. Duniway can teach our girls any thing good let tiiem learn it of her and 1 would not forbid it if I thought the other way, but would use my owu in fluence to correct what 1 thought wits not right. You may keep young people from all I kinds of amusements and not let them go and It meets with the same result. I have known parent to keep their children at home and not let them go to lulls, because they were trying to raise them up to be good men nnd wo- tucu, ami Homctlmessuch children have urnedout the worst rowdies.

Too Late For The Train. When thoy reached tho depot Mr. Mann and his wife gazed in unspo.tk ahlo dlsapiointmont at the receding train, which was Just pulling nwiiy from the hridgo switch nt tho rato of a thousand miles n minute. Their Hrst Impulse wits to run after It; hut as the train was out of slghtnnd whistling for Sagetown before they could net upon tho Impul-e, they remained in tho car riage mid disconsolately turned their horsos' heads homowardi " It nil conies from having to wait for a woman to got ready." Mr. Mann broke tho silence, very gently. " I was ready !)cforo you were," re plied his wife. "Cireat hoavens!" cried Mr. Mann, In irreprosslhlo impatience, Jerking tho horsos' Jaws out or place, "Just lNten to that: And I sat in the buggv ton minutes, yelling at you to come along, until the whole nuighlwrhood heard mo." " Yes," acquiesced Mrs. Mann, with tho provoking placidity which none can assume but a woman, "and every timo I started down stairs you seut mo luck for something you had forgotten." Mr. Mann groaned. "This Is too much to l(ear," he said, " whon every body knows that if I were '-'tr to Europe, 1 would rush into th, use, nut on it clean shirt, grab up my grip sack and fly, while you would want at loast six months' preliminary prepara tions, and dawdle around the wholo day or starting until every train had loft town." Well, the upshot of the matter was that the Matins put off their visit to Aurora until the next week, and It was agreed that each one should get him self and herself ready and go down to tho train and go, and the one who failed to get ready should 1k left. The day of the match came around in due time. The train was going at 10.30; and Mr. Mnnu, after attending lo his bu-iness, went home at !. 13. " Sow,'" lie cried, '-only three quar ters of an hour to train time; n fair Held and uo favors, you know." And uway they flow. Mr. Mann bulged Into his room, und rushed thro' that one, and dived through one closet after another with inconceivable rapid ity, chuckling under his breath all the time to think how cheap Mrs. Mann would feel when he started off alone. Jle stopped on his way up stairs to pull off his heavy lioots and .vivo timo. For the same reason ho pulled off his coat as lie ran through the dining room, and hung it on st corner tf the silver closet. Then he Jerked off his vest as he rush ed through the hall and to-.-d it on a hat ruck; and by tho time lie reached his owu room lie was ready to plunge into liis clean clothes. He pulled out a bureau drawer, and liegun to paw nt the things like n terrier after a rat. "Eleanor," he shrieked, " where nre my shirts?" " In your bureau drawer," calmly re pliod Mrs. Mann, who was standing before a glass, calmly und deliberately eoaxing it refractory crimp into place. "Well, by thunder, they ain't!" shouted Mr. Mann, a little atmoved. "I've emptied everything out of" tho drawer, und tiiere isn't a thing in it I ever saw lefore." Mrs. Mann stepped hack a few paces, held hor head on one side, and after satisfying hcr-elf that the crimp would do, and Mould stay where she had put It, lopllcd: " 1 ho-e things you have scattered on the floor aro all mine. Probably you haven't been looking in your own drawer." " I don't Ree why you couldn't have put my things out for me when you had nothing eUe to do all the morn ing." " Ileeauso." said Mrs. Mann, 'ettlintr herself Into tin additional article of rai ment with awful delllieratlon, " nobody put mine out for me. A fair field and no favor-, my dear." Mr. Mann plunged into his shirt like n hull ut a red tlag. "I'oul! " he shouted in malicious triumph. "So buttons on the neck !" " lk'cuii'-e," said Mrs. Mann sweetly, after-u deliberate stare at the fidgeting, Impatient man, during which she but toned her drcsi and put eleven pins where they would do the most good, " you have got the shirt on wrong side out." When Mr. Maun slid out of that shirt he begun to sweat. He dropped the shirt three times lcfure he got It on. and v Idle it was over his bead lie heard tho clock strike 10. When his head came through, ho saw Mrs. Mann coaxing the ends und bowsof her neck tie. " Wheio'.s my hhirlstucN?" lie cried. Mrs. Munn went out iuto another room, und preicntly came back with her gloves and hat, and saw Mr. Mann emptying all the Uixos he could find In und about the bureau. Then she said: " In the shirt you jut took off." Mr. Munn put on her gloves while Mr. Mann hunted up and down the room for his ruff buttons. "Eleanor," hiiiurled ut last, " 1 be llovo you muu know where Uiom; cuff buttons are." "1 haven't seen them." said tho la dy, utttlitig her hat; "illn't you lay them down on the window s.ll in the bitting room last night ?" Mr. Mann remembered, and In went down stairs on the run. Ho stepped on one of his lxots, and was immedi ately landed In tho hall ut the foot of tln -lairs wltli neatness ami dl-patch, ultctnlc'l in the transmission wltli more bumps than ho could count with WubbN Adder, and landed with it lung like tho il'-ll Oaio exploilon. "Aro .ou nearly loadv, Algernon V" asked tho wife of his htnoiii sweetly, leaning over the banister. The unhappy man groaned. "Can't you throw me down tho other boot?" lie asked. Mrs. Mann pityingly kicked it down to him. WILLAMETTE FARMER. "My vallso?" ho Inquired, as ho tugged away on tho last boot, "Up in your drosslng-rooni," she answered. " Packed? " " I do not know; unless you packed It yourself, proliably not," she replied, with hor hand on the door knob; "I hardly had time to pack my own." She was passing out or tho gate, whon thn door oicned, nnd ho shouted: "Where in tho name ofgoodness did you put my vest?" It has all my mon oy in It," " Yoft throw it on tho hat-rack," she called luck. " flood bye, dear." Ueforo she got to the comer of tho street sho was hailed again: "Eleanor! Eleanor! Eleanor Mann! Did you wear off my coat?" Sho pau-od and turned, after signal ing tho street car to stop, and cried: " You threw it on tho silver cloct." And tho street car engulfed lier graceful figure, and she was seen no more. Hut tho neighbors say they hoard Mr. Munn charging up and down tho house, rushing out of the front door every now and then, and shriek ing up lhe deserted street after the un conscious Mrs. Mann, to know whero ills hat was, and where sho put the valUo key, and if ho had any clean socks nnd under-shirts, and that there wasn't a linen collar in tho house. And when he went away at last he, left tho kitchen door, front door and side door, all tho down stairs windows and the gate, wide open. And tho loungers around tho depot yesterday were amused ju-t as the train was pulling out or sight down in tho yards to see a flushed, perspiring man, with his hat on sideways, his vest buttoned two button too high, his cuffs unbuttoned and neck-tie (lying, aud his grip-sack flying open and shut like a demented shutter on a March night, and a door key in his hand, dash wildly across the platform and halt in tho middle or the track, glaring in dejected, indolent, wrathful mortification at tho departing train, and shaking his list nt a pretty woman who was throwing kisses at him from the rear platform or the last car.

This is to certify that I was discharged from. tho army with Chroulo Diarrheal, and have been cured by Dr. Hollowav's Pills. WILSON HAHVEY, New York, April 7, 1SGG. 21 Pitt Street. The following Is an Interesting case of a man employed in an Iron Foundry, who, la pouring melted iron into a flask that was damp and wet, caused an explosion. Tho molted iron was thrown around and nn him in a perfect shower, and be was burned dreadfully. Tbo following certificate wai given to me, by him, about eight wteks after the accident: New York, Jan. Iu, 18i3. My name Is Jacob ILrdy; I am an IrOD Founder. I was badly burnt by hot iron Ir. November last; my bums healed, but I had a running sore on my log that would not beal. I tried Holloway's Ointment and It cured me in a few weeks. This is all true, and anybody can see ma at Jackson's Iron WorkB, 2d Avenue. J. HARDY, 110 Goercu St. Extracts from Various Letters. "I had no appetite; Holloway's Pills gavo me a hearty one." " Your Pills are marvellous." " I send for another box, and keep them In tho house." "Dr. Holloway has cured my headache that was chronic." " I gave one of your Pills to my babo for cholera morbus. Tbe dear little thing got well In a day." " My nausea of a morning is now cured." " Your box of Holloway's Ointment cured me of noises in the head. I rubbed some or your ointment behind the ears, and tbe noise has left." " Send me two boxes, I want one for a poor family." " I enclose a dollar, vour nri "f -rw" tratttie meaicino to me is worth a dollar." " Send me Ave boxes of your Pills." " Let me have three boxes of your Pills by return mall, for Chills and Fevur." 1 bare over 200 such Testimonials as these, but want of space compels me ta conclude. For Cutaneous Disorders. And all oruptlons of the skin, this Ointment b most invaluable. It does not neal exter nally alone, but penetrates witb tbe most searching effects to the very root of the evil. HOLLOWAY'S PILLS Invariably cure tbe following diseases: Disorders or the Kldncjs. In all diseases affecting these organs, whotbor thoy secrete too much or too little water; or whether they be alllicted wltli stone or gravel, or with aches and pains set tled in tbe loins over the regions of tbe kid noys, theso Pills should be taken according; to tbe printed directions, and tbe Ointment should be well rubbed into tbe small of thn back at bed time. This treatment will give almost immediate relief who'1 "H other means have rallied. For Stomachs out or Order. No medlcluo will so effectually Improve the tone of tbe stomach as these Pills; they rotnove all acidity, occasioned oitber by In temperance or Improper diet. They reach the liver and reduce it to a healthy action; thoy aro wonderfully efficacious in cases of spasm In fact thoy nover fall in curing all dUordors of tho liver and stomach.
