AFTER FIFTEEX YEARS.
"Toa, they IiaI a hard time of it there,"
says ft short, sallow, keen eyed man,
glancing over the illustrated newspaper
which contains an engraving of Air.
Augustus Van Cleef'a fine monument to
the Unknown dead" at Salisbury, North
Carolina. "I guess I ought to know
something of what the Southern prisons
were daring the lata war, for I had five
months of it. in Anderaonville myself."
In a Pennsylvania train, among men of
whom not a few have taken part in the
great struggle themselves, and who have
had at least one relative engaged in it,
such an announcement is quite sufficient
to command general attention. j
"No! did you, though?"
"S'pose you tell us the story, mister;
there time enough 'fore New York, I
reckon.". . '
"All right, if you care to hear it. You
see, when I first came over from England
the war was just about beginning, and as
there didn't seem anything for me to do
I thought I'd hotter soldier than starve,
and so I went a id listed right away. I
wasn't long in finding out that soldiering
and starving might sometimes mean
pretty much the same thing, for rations
were pretty scarce with u once once or
twice, when we got down on the Missis
sippi. I tela ye, after lying all flight in
a rice swamp, stiff and wet and miserable,
with nothing to eat and only marsh
water to drink, it was just like a' breath
of life to me to hear the alarm stranded
and know that we'd be at the enemy in a
few minutes more," ''''"?' "
At this moment a pale-acevl man, who
was going f tout seat to seat with a basket
of newspapers and magazines," paused
for moment to listen, with a look of
such evident appreciation that it hardly1
required tae testimony of his empty coat
sleeve to show that he, too, had been a
soldier in his time.
"We had plenty of hard fighting down
here," pursued the narrator as the news
paper man passed on, "bat most of it
was just the sort I didn't like skirmish
ing about thick woods, where all you
could sue of yonr enemy was the smoke
of lus piece as he let fly at you, where
iota oi our leiiows were snot down witu
out ever knowing who hurt 'em. I had
a pretty narrow escape myself that way
one night. I was standing sentry at the
outposts when a rebel let slap at me
from' the thicket, and just eaught me
across the cheek here; yon see the scar.
I got behind a tree as quick as winking,
and there I staffed my jacket with grass
and set it up against a tree, with a stiok
tnrougn it ana my bat on top, to -look as
if I was peering around for a shot; and
then I dropped down and crawled away
into the bushes. Presently I heard the
crack of the reb's piece again, and, look
ing, out, just caught sight of bis arm
and shoulder, and brought him 'down
wita one snot. -
"Well, not very long after that. I and
some more got picked up by the South
ern i'avairy, ana it wasn't a great wbiie
before we found ourselves hard and fast
in Anderaonville, and there - we did have
- a time, sure enough.
"The place has been described so often
that I dare say you have a pretty good
idea or what it was like." It was a great,
wide, swampy field, with a stockade
around it, inside of which thousands Of

only to& his chances, and I can tell you
there wert mijh few .X'lsrrkels among
us, and many of us had little enough
doming, either. :
"All day long the sua kept roasting
us alive, and all night the damp and
cum ate into our very bones and set us
shivering till our teeth rattled again. As
to food, many's the time I have gone all
day upon a couple of biscuits, and small
ones at that., and so as to water, all we
' had was from a stream that ran through
a cypress swamp, and you may think
what kind of stuff that was." T
"You must have been powerful hun
gry, I reckon," remarked a sympathetic
oystanaer.
"Hungry? Well. Ill tell you some
thing about that. One day a young fel
low, the son of the general who had us in
charge, came into the pen to look
around, with his little DOodle-do? follow
ing him.' He had hardly turned his back
when that dog was chopped up and eaten
bodily; and when his master came back
, to look for him there was nothing left
but a bit of skin about so big. They
stopped our food for a whole day be-
. stuse we wouldn't say who did it; but we
told no tales not we.
"Now,. I should tell you that to make
sure of our not 'scaping they'd run a
wire all around inside, about eighteen
feet from the stockade: and that eighteen
feet was the 'dead line,' because if a pris
oner only put his head over that line he
got a bullet in him the next minute from
one of the sentries.
Well, one night late in the fall I'd got
as close as I could to the dead line, so as
the stockade might shelter me a bit from
the cold wind. (Ugh! how it did bite
through me on that night!) I was just
wondering if I, could live through till
morning, and hardly, caring whether I
did or not, when a sentry just outside
gave a 'P'sf that made me look up.
"Say, Yank, " he whispered, "I guess
you'll want a blanket to-night. Catch
hold of this." And ha rolled up his own
and chucked it to me. "I can get along
Without it." . ,
"God bless you," says I and that was
all. I chucked it back to him the first
thing next morning, so as he shouldn't
get found out, but I guess it saved my
life, all the same. , .
Not long after that a lot of ua were ex-
c iianged, ana I 'among the rest. I tell
you I hardly felt the ground under my
feet when I went out of that filthy hole a
free man though just at first I was as
weak as a baby, and could hardly stand
without being held. ; f
"And did you never hear no more of
that feller as giv' yer the blanket?" asked
one oi tbe audience with undistinguished
.. interest.
"Never, worse luck; and I don't sup
pose I shall ever now, for it's . fifteen
years since it happened, and I've never
ween sontn since. J
At that moment a sharp voice said,
enose to bis ear:
"Say, Yank, . I guess yon 11 want
blanket to-night!"
The soldier started as if he had been
shot, and turning hastily found himself
confronted by the thin face of the one
armed newspaper man, lit up with a
knowing smile.
"Why, if there ain't the very man
himself!" houted.the narrator, seising
him with both bands; "WeU: who'd

On aa" English Sail ay.
Bells are scarcely needed, for all
crossings are guarded by gates aud
attended by gatemen, who elose
them at least ten minutes before the
passace of a train ia expected. Cow
catchers are also as unnecessary as
bells, for the locomotive caa catch a
cow just as well without them. Al
though the guard has practically the
control of tbe train, yet the engine
driver is responsible for keeping
time. If time is lost on one part of
the journey it roost be made up, if
possible, at another. If therein no
reason for losing time tuo engine
driver is docked sixpence for every
minute lost. Under these circum
stances it is safe to say that no time
is lost that cannot be accounted for.
Trains are often pushed to a reckless
speed to avoid tbe fine. "Fire, Tom,"
is hoard more frequently from the
engineer as he presses his nose
against the circular pane of glass
and peers ahead. i
I remember being on the locomo
tive with an engineer one j day, who
was trying to make up '.jtimey the
train being tbe mid day express. He
had pushed up the rate ot speed un
til it was fully a mile a minute, when,
on turning a snarp curve to enter
upon a bridge which crossed a small
river, a horse was observed on uie
track not more than a hundred yards
ahead. --". .-- ';;. .;' . . '." n
"Too late to slack up,"j mattered
tbe engineer as he opened the throt
tlo valve wider, accelerating if possii
ble tho speed of the train. The borse
was standing with its tail toward tbe
approaching locomotive. jA moment
and the hunter of the engine struck
the animal a cood way j abaft the
beam and knocked him completely

When the driver completes his

The flight of the Hawk. .
We had the good fortune to see a
rjereorine falcon wheeling round" some
low lands on the right of the road to
York in slow, wide and majestic circles,
and naturally discussed the object of;
such a singular flight, which seems to be
common to the hawk tribe in all parts of
the world. Often have we seen them on,
American mnrshes hovering with ex-j
panded, motionless wings, and, with a
slight flutter at the end of each circle,
mount up to the altitude they had lost.
Borne old-fasbioned works jon natural
history speak ef these circles as intended
to dismay the prey that hawks wish to
capture, and say that they lessen them
until they find them within their reach;
but against this it must be said that,
with the exceeding fleetnesg and keen
sight of a hawk, all prey be wishes for is
very much within his reach the moment
he sees it; and, as my very intelligent
companion said, a hawk when after his
prey generally flies low and with some
what tho motion of an owl. 1 He usually
keeps aloug hedge-rows or the side of a
plantation, and very easily finds a sup
per. I was pleased to bear a theory I
had formed in America confirmed, for
when waiting for wild ducks we used to
aee these birds of prey soaring around in
great sweeps, and it seemed most proba
ble that they were only taking an airing;
indeed, they appeared to be almost in a
dreamy state, for even after hearing a
shot they would circle round very prob
ably within easy reach of - a gun. My
game-keeper friend quite confirmed this;
and, as the passage in. Macbeth occurred
to me at the moment, I j quoted the
words: - j
Oa Tncauiiy laat
A falaon towerinc la bar pilde of ul tee
Was by a tuoiuliig owl ba ked si. and k I Ilea."
He said that he could well believe tbis
was an actual scene, as when owls are
hungry they will take birds in the air,
and he might have mistaken: the falcon
easily for a more dainty meal. In the
course of our conversation I learned that
two years previously a bustard had been
shot in these parts of Yorkshire, and two
more had been seen. Now, of course,
such birds are regarded as extinct,
though at the same time not fewer than
five had been seen on Salisbury Plains,
and one I saw in the hands of the' bird
stuffer. It is a great pity that such no
ble birds should be allowed to die out,
or, rather, to be exterminated; add we
should do well to imitate the Americans
in their generous protection of native
fowl, and even stop shooting for a season
when the gunner threatens to extermi
nate any particular species. ' j
Tbe Armless Violinist. !
There is a young man in Germany, by
the name of Hermann Unthan, without
arms, who is said to bean admirable vio
linist. . i i
He is the son of a poor village school
master at Sommerfield, near Elbing. The
violin lies upon a kind of footstool,
which he himself designed. : The young
violinist sits before it on an ordinary
chair. In tuning the instrument he
turns the screws with the toes of the
right foot, one of which also serves to
press the strings, while he' grasps the
bow lightly and tenderly with the toes on
the left foot. Gliding over the four
strings with a soft touch, he produced a
pure trill with his two toes as quickly
and with as much precision as the , best
violinist with two fingers. He can play
an entire line of chords in valse time.
He has in his power all the shades of ex
pression, from the pianissimo to the
modern forte. ;
Hermann Unthan is no object of pity,
but a perfectly contented man. He is
. happy in the thought that he has helped
himself, and that he has erfectly over
come the apparent helplessness with
which he came into the world. He does
not feel the want of arms, which he never
possessed. His legs are his arms, his
feet are his hands, his toes are his
fingers, and with thorn he does all that
other men do with arms, hands and
fingers. .
He is a young man, full of life and
eager for travel, and will probably go
through t8 BlB world. j -He
is accompanied by two faithful at
tendants, one of whom manages all his
concerts, lodgings and things of that
: kind. He is certain of the success vhich
he so highly deserves, not only for bis
artistio skill, but for his excellent dis
position. It is said that he transmits a
large portion of his gains to Sommerfield
for the support of his parents. j
r HkaDwobk. A man lately entered a
tavern in France looking dreadfully
wearied and with face as long as a
crescent moon. He seated himself
languidly at table where: a previous
customer was taking a glass of absinthe.
"Sir," said the latter, sympathetically,
"yon appear much fatigued." j"Yes,"
replied the other; "head-work, sir, head
work!" "Dramatic writer, possibly?"
"No, sir, I'm a hairdresser,: and to-day
shaved twenty stubby beards and cut the
hair off ten beads.

The following is from the Burlington
Haw key a
"I just rolled out here from the gro
cery," said the little gWfen apple, as it
paused on the sidewalk for a moment's
chat with the banana peel; "I am waiting
here for a boy. Not a small, weak, deli
cate boy," added the little green apple,
proudly, "but a great big boy a great,
bulky, strong, leather-lunged, noisy
fifteen-year-older; and, little as I am, you
will see me double no that boy to-night.
and make him wail and howl and yell.
Oh, I'm small, but I'm good for a ten
acre field of boys, and don't you forget
it. All the boys in linrlington," the lit
tle green apple went on, with just a shade
of pitying contempt in . its voice,
"couldn't fool around me as any one of
them fools around a banana."
"Boys seem to be your game, drawled
the banana peel, lazily; "well, I suppose
they are just about strong enough to
ailord you a little amusement, x or my
own part, I like to take somebody of my
own size. Now there comes the kind of
a man I usually do business with. He is
large and strong, it is true, but "
And lust then a outn JUiu merchant,
who weighs about 231 pounds when he
feels right good, came along, and the
banana peel just caught bim by tne loot,
lifted him about as high as the awning
post, turned him over, banged him down
on a potato basket, flattened it out until
it looked like a splint door mat, and the
shock jarred everything loose in the
show window. And then, while the
fallen merchant gathered himself from
various quarters of the globe his sat
hat from the gutter, his spectacles from
the cellar, his handkerchief from the tree
box, his cane from the show window,
and one of his shoes from the eaves
trough, and a boy ran for the doctor, the
little green apple blushed red and
shrunk a little out of sight, covered with
awe and mortification.
"Ah," it thought, "I wonder if I can
ever do that? Alas, how vain I was, and
yet how poor and weak and useless I am
in this world." .' .t' s -
But the banana peel comforted it, and
bade it look up and take heart, and do
well what it had to do, and labor for the
good of the cause in its own useful
sphere. "True," said the banana peel,
"you cannot lift up a 200 pound man and
break a cellar door with him, but you
can give him the cholera morbus, and, if
youfdo your part, the world will feel
yonr power and the medical colleges will
call you blessed." , -
And then the little 'greeu apple smiled
and looked up with grateful blushes on
its face, and thanked the banana peel for
its encouraging counsel. And that very
night, an old father, who writes thirteen
hours a day, and a patient mother, who
was almost ready to sink from weariness,
and a nurse and a doctor sat np until
nearly morning with a thirteen-year-old
boy, who was all twisted up the shape of
a riguro 3, while all tbe neighbors on that
block sat up and listened and pounded
their pillows and tried to sleep and
wished that boy would either die or get
well.
And the little green apple was pleased
and its last words were, "At least I have
been of some little use in this world."
The Courteous Lawyer.
You recognize the courteous lawyer at
once, lie places a chair gracefully for his
client whether tbe client is mi elegantly
attired lady in sealskins aud diamonds or
clumsy bumpkin in home spun attire.
He' smiles sweetly at his opponent, and
bows to the jury iti a delerenually lamu
iar way. lie pavs the fees to the clerk
before he has the trouble to ask for them.
and draws the bills out of his pocket book
slowly, one by one, as gently as he would
lead a belle iroui her carriage to the ball'
room. His bow to the court is almost an
apology for -having come into the profes
sion contemporaneously with his Honor.
lie handles a witness as though he was
the frail golden setting and lus testimony
the gem be was trying to remove. His
tones are carefully modulated, and he ap
peals for a replv to the kindly sensibili
ties of the witness. "'Be so good" is the
captivating exordium, and "thank you'
the palliative peroration, if he wounds
with a question, he binds up the sore the
next meinent witn liniment or politeness.
To his oponent he overflows with gener
ous waivers and admissions, and if by
chance he interpolates a remark, he does
it as though he was putting a boquet in
his adversary's buttonhole, lie thinks
he understands the court. He hopes be
does not misapprehend his learned friend.
Ue trusts the witness knows what he
means. In addressing the jury, heun .
bosoms his appreciation of their intelli
gence and ability, lie lays his arguments
before them with respect amounting
almost to reverence, as though they were
propitiatory offering lo a deity whom he
wished to placate: To the court bis
whole demeanor is redolent of respect.
The court is must honouable; the judge
most distinguished. He in short, so
filled with iin::rsn conbidcrrtion for every
thing and everybody around him, that
be tinds excu.ie for the jury that beats
him and for the court that nonsuits him.
It is true, be has been known to revive
an adversary in private, to curse surrep
titiously, and to sneer at the judiciary in
the social circle. It is also true that he
can wrench a fee from a client in a ruth
less moment and take a snap judgement
when he thinks it safe. But these little
triCeaonly show that he is human.and he
knows that men are not apt to believe
that a head with such a halo of politeness
around it can have: for its pedestal a
cloven foot.
What Ills ame Was.
There was a Kansas City reporter on
the train that carried Grant frcm Galena,
and one of his first exploits was to sail
through the cars, getting np a list of the
Eeople aboard. One of the first persons
e struck was a short, thick set man with
a beard, who sat gazing pensively out
of the window with a cigar in his
mouth. 4 x'- -i
"Are yon one of the invited guests?"
asked the reporter, tapping the man cn
the shoulder.
Tbe man said he was, and kept on
smoking.
"From St. Joe or Leavenworth,"
asked the reporter, note book and pencil
in band.
"Illinois," replied the man, still smok
ing.
, "I'll have to trouble you for your
name," persisted the reporter.
"Grant," said the man, still smok
ing. "Initials, please," asked tho re
porter. "Ulysses S. Grant," replied the mau,
quietly.
"Oh," faintly ejaculated the reporter,
as a strange light came in his eyes. And
he moved on.
Stuart s Artistic ireatmknt of thb
Eyes. Stnart, the painter, once exe
cuted the portrait of a lady in New York
who was fussy, critical, over-exacting
and nice to a degree that tried in the ex
treme his rather exoitable temperament.
The portrait was changed again and
again; the shade of the hair, the color of
the eyes, tbe expression of the mouth.
the pose of the head, the arrangement of
the drapery, etc., Were repeatedly al
tered at the suggestion of the lady. One
day mauame came in with several friends
to see the portrait: and, as usual, she be
gan to criticise, and said: "I do not
think, Mr. Stuart, you have given my
eyes the right expression." The patience
of the artist was exhausted; he could
stand no more. Walking np to the por
trait, and drawing bock his fist, he thrust
it through the canvas, and exclaimed in
blunt, but vigorous Anglo-Saxon:
"Madame. your eyes 1" throwing the
canvas aside the portrait was finished.
He hod given it the last touch.
Tomatoes asd Apples. Some neoole
object to tomatoes chiefly on account of a
certain muteness of taste and the great
quantity of seeds, which spoil the looks
ot ue stew, lhe latter is unproved very
much, both In regard to teste and apear
ance, by the addition of apples. The
quantity of tho latter may vary to suit
the teste; from one-quarter to one-half
apples suits most people; The apples
must be prepared as usual for stewing
and put in with the tomatoes, the whole
being stewed until done. - A hardier dish,
wnicn may not suit everybody, but which
is equally healthy, is tomatoes stewed
with an onion or two, sliced. Tomatoes
and apples make very nice preserves, and
tomato pickle, with small onions, is to
well known to need praising.
. The Wheel Horse,
' There is a wheel horse in every family;
some one who takes the load ou all oc
casions. It may be the older daughter,
possibly the father, but generally it is
the mother, Extra company, sickness,
gives her a heavy increase of the burden
she is always carrying. Even summer
vacations bring less rest and recreation
to her than to others of the family. The
city house must be put np in order to
leave; the clothing for herself and the
children which a country sojourn, de
mands seems never to be finished; and
the excursions and picnics which delight
the heart of the young people are not
wholly a delight to the "provider." I
onoe heard a husband say, "My wife
takes her sewing-machine - into the
country and has a good time doing up
the fall sewing." . At the tune I did not
fully appreciate the enormity of the
thing; but it has rankled in my memory!
and appears to me now an outrage. How
would it be for the merchant to take his
books into the country with him to go
over his accounts for a little amusement?
Suppose the minister writes np a few
extra sermons, and the teacher carries a
Hebrew grammar and perfects himself in
a new language, ready for the opening
of school in the fall?
Woman's work is never done. She
would never have it done. Ministering
to father and mother, cherishing her
husband, nourishing and training her
children no true woman wants to see hor
work done. But because it is never
done she needs resting times. ,i
Jivery night the heavy truck is turned
up, the wheel horse is put into the sta
ble, and labor and care are dismissed un
til the morrow. The thills of the house
hold van cannot be turned np at night,
and the tired housemother cannot go
into a quiet stall for repose. She goes
to sleep to-night feeling . the pressure of
to-morrow. She must have had "an eye"
over all until everyone was in bed, and
must keep an eye ready to open at any
moment to answer the need of children,
and open both eyes bright and early to
see the machinery well started for a new
.day. . ':.' . - ' .-, v' "'.-'
There is never any time that seems
convenient for the mother of little chil
dren to leave home even for a day; bnt
with a little kindly help from her hus
band, and a little resolution in herself,
she may go, and be so much the better
for it that the benefit will overflow from
her into the whole household. She will
bring home some new idea and will work
with the enthusiasm that comes from a
fresh start.. . .
One word for the older sister; who
makes the salad for lunch and the des
sert for dinner, who takes the position of
wheel horse quite cheerfully while her
younger sisters make themselves beauti
ful and entertaining, and, one after an
other, find "one true heart" apiece to
love them, and leave the maiden to grow
into an old maid. : However willing her
sacrifice, it is one; and nothing bnt the
devoted love and gratitude of the house
holds whose fires she has helped to kin
dle will reward her for what she has
given.
An Engineer's Meed of Xerre.
Unquestionably the bravest men
in America are those who can stand
upon the loot boards of , the locomo
tives which draw the fast express
trains. But lew persons are aware
of it, bnt on the leading railways,
where connections must bo made it
possible, only engineers known to
be brave and daring are given en
gines on express trains, and as soon
as an engineer shows the least
timidity about running fast, ho is
taken Irom his engine and given one
on a freight train to run. Two such
cases have occurred recently on In
dianapolis roads. .Railroad officers
state that the first sign that an engi
neer is becoming timid is, that ho
will be five or ten minutes late, possi
bly a half hour, for some duj's or
nights in succession. lie is then
called to an account, and unless his
reasons are convincing another engi.
necr is given his engine to run for a
few times, and should ho bring the
train in promptly on time, the first
named engineer gets a freight train
engine to run until he braces np. It
is stated, however, that alter: an
engineer allows his timidity to got a
fair bold, he seldom so far overcomes
it as to have the bravery to step on
to an express train engine and run it
at tho speed necessary to make the
time. Quito recently an engineer of
one of the roads running west from
here got the impression that some
accident was to happen to bim, and
one night, when running a fast ex.
press, he constantly lost time. At
the first station tbe conductor be
rated him for running so slow. The
engineer actually shod tears, and
owned that fears had overcome him,
and that he dare not ran fast, and at
his own request an engineer of a
freight train which stood at the
meeting point was given tho train to
run through that night, the conduc
tor telegraphing the train-master,
asking that the request be granted.
The timid engineer has since run a
freight on the road. ' '

Thb Gentleman Wins. If you speak

impression: if yon do bo trespass upon

others with equal ability fail to. This

This is what society is looking for in

men are able to win self-respect and sue

qualities of good breeding. It is almost

Fool Friends.'
Nothing hurts a man, nothing hurts a

against the party. .

A fool friend is always full of a kind of

He is so candid that he always believeB

He never suspects anything on yonr

Nothing pleases him like being shocked
by terrible news concerning some good
man.
: He never denies a lie unless it is in your
favor, . ,.
He is always finding fault with his

for not belonging to the other side.
He is frightfully anxious that all his
candidates should stand well with the op

party and the virtues of the other.
tie generally shows his candor by

gersoU. Tobacco at the Capitol.
In an account of the closing days of
Congress, Mary Clemmer, in a Washing
ton letter to the New York Independent,
comments upon the well-nigh intolerable
tobacco-nuisance at the Capitol us follows:
"Nothing in their way could be nirr
exquisite than the staircases of tinted
marble leading to the galleries of both
Senate aud House. Yet hud they been
tottering stairways, leading to dens ol
dissipation instead of to the highest leg
islative chambers of the nation, they
could not be more defiled than they are
to-day. From base to summit they reek
with tobacco. It drips from their edges
and is piled in 'quids' in their corners,
while the spittoons that line the wy
would disgrace a pot-house. 'Tis not per
petually thus. The corridors, always
thronged, are mobbed but ou 'special occa
sions.' Repeated yearly, the cIhms of
every session rivals an 'Inauguration' in
the multitudes that it brings together in
this Penetralia of tbe nation's life. If
tbey were but a little cleaner, one possi
bly might grow poetic, if not patriotic, at
the sight. But with tobacco reeking
under your feet ; tobacco spurting dia
gonally on your pretty clothes; tobacco
making tbe air blue with smoke and foul
with smell, over acres of marble that
should be stainless as vonr conscience, al
together it is quite sufficient to mjUt you
doubt the civilization of the people who
claim to be the 'mightiest' on the earth.
To see the sight the Capitol presents to
day, one can only wonder that the fierce
war that in periodic spasms attempts to
blot out 'intemperance' does not include
tobacco intemperance. Whv forget the
tobacco inebriate? His nicolined beard
and brain, his palsied nerveaJiis poisoned
blood cry out lor your pity, when his
presence makes itself sure of yonr dis
gust. If liquor slays its tens of thous
ands, tobacco blurs, blunts, and destroys
scarcely less of the most sensitive and
hnely-organtzed creatures of the human
race.' To behold this vice blossoming in
migbty yet loathsome aggregate, come to
the Capitol of the United States the day
Congress closes.
Lecture on
Ticket Agents
Clerks.
and Hotel
Colonel Fornet', in the Progress
reads a Icttor to ticket agents which
should be appreciated and endorsed
by tbe public, lie says: .Nearly all
of us have growled at what we con
sider downright impudence of ticket
sellers at railroad stations, in theater
box offices and hotel clerks. These
ladies and gentlemen for occasion
ally nowadays you find a woman
selling railroad tickets and doing
similar duty Irequently are peevish
and short in answer, all ot which is
exactly what they ought not to be.
They are paid for their work; much
or little, it matters nothing; when
they accept tho office they agree to
the pay, and a very important part
of that work is to treat ibe cus
tomers of their employers with stud
ied politeness. That the public has
aright to expect ot them. But is
nothing required of tbe public in re
turn? Iiefcrcnce is not intended
now to those stupid creatures who
ask silly questions, and who wear
away alike patience and time. Noth
ing will ever chango them: their ig
noranco is too deep-seated ever to be
dug out. But there is the man who
addresses tbe hotel clerk as it ho
were his special lackey, who bangs
at the windows of the theaters as if
the gentleman inside the office was
there only to be bullied. The man
knows better; he was fully aware he
was doing something out of the com
mon, but he docs it to attract atten
tion to himself, and. succeeds at the
cost of beiosr set down, as a ruffian
He presumes on the-' position of the
person he insults; ho would not dare
to act so toward him were he to
meet him away from his, duty. He
is therefore a cowardly, mean fellow
Ton, Os. Every young man should
remember that the world will always
honor industry. The vulgar and useless
idler whose energies of body and mind
are rusting for want of exercise, the mis
taxen being who pursues amuse
ment as relief to his enervated muscles.
or engages in exercises that produce no
useful end, may look with scorn on the
laborer at his toil; bnt his scorn is
praise, his contempt honor. Honesty
and industry will secure the respect of
the wise and good among men, and yield
the rich fruits of an easy conscience, and
give that hearty self-respect which is
above all price. Toil on, then, young
men and women. Be diligent in bnsi-
nesrimprove the heart and mind.

A Telephone Dialogue. The fol
lowing telephonic dialogue occurred the

.Watch Touug Orchards. -t-i
' Allow no green hands to prune them
unless yoa are with them, or have with
them some reliable and.: experienced
pruner. " The injury from bad pruning
is not at an end for many years, I will
not speak of old trees, where large
branches have been removed two, three,
or more inches from the trnnk, left to
decay, never to heal over, bnt sure to
leave a rotted center into the heart of the
tree. I have scores of such old trees.
The branohes of yonng trees should be
removed with a smooth cut, without a
bruise, close to the trunk or branch from
which they are taken, so as to leave no
room for a dozen little brandies to start
out from the stump of the branch cut off.
More than half the labor of after-priming
is saved by removing with care and as
elosely as possible the small branohes of
young trees as fast as they put out in the
spring or early summer. These may be
rubbed off by the hand, where the prun
ing is close, when two or three inches
long, and all the strength of the tree
that would be wasted on them turned to
the growth of valuable branches. Care
in watching these little gourmands will
not hasten the growth of the tree, but
the production of fruit in peaches one
year, and in apples two or three years.
One should go over a young orchard
once in May and once in June. The tree
is easily formed when young. Avoid
dividing the tree into two branohes so as
to form a crotch when the head begins to
form. When bearing freely, Buch trees
are apt to split apart. Bettor have the
head formed by several branches starting
out from a main trunk stem two or three
inches apart. : Keep the center open and
shaped somewhat like an open umbrella
frame inverted. Asjthe tree advances in
growth rub off the inside; shoots that
point toward each other, ana wnicn, u
extended, would either crosii each other
or fill up the space that should be open
in the middle of the tree foir the admis
sion of air and the rays of the sun. . Ev
ery yonng orchard that is worth planting
is worth watching and manuring freely,
with as good cultivation as is required
for corn or potatoes. OAio Farmer:
A Tramp's Bevenge.
A few days since one of the seediest
sort of tramps, seemingly about 50 years
old, attached himself to a free lunch sa
loon on Monroe Avenne, and soon felt
perfectly at home. - . When ordered out,
be went out, but the trouble was he
wouldn t stay out. ;.. As a last resort he
was kicked out, but in an hour came
back and seemed so humble and forgivf
ing that the proprietor didn't like to give
him any more cowhide. After a day or
two a different plan was tried. The
"vag" had several times referred toa pain
in the chest, and the bar-keeper mixed
him np a cure. In ten minntes after
drinking it he was excitedly informed
that he had been given a large dose of
moruhine bv mistake. A partv was at
hand to play doctor, and it was decided
that the tramp must walk until he over
came the influence of the drug. Une and
another took turns with him until he had
put in about four hours in the backyard,
and he was then to walk in the country
at least five miles to make his cure cer
tain. He took the case very cool y, never
protesting a word, and as he started for
the green fields it was supposed the sa
loon hod seen the last of him. ' Never
theless, he ret n rued in about four hours,
lame in the left leg, covered with dust,
and apparently almost exhausted. He
said that he hod walked in vain. Find
ing that death hod determined to claim
him, he had returned to die with his
friends. ' Before they could protest he
fell to the floor, breaking the back off a
chair and upsetting a table, and after a
few atcks be was dead. A pint of good
brandy was wasted in rubbing him; the
saloon closed for an hour in the face of a
big business, and an undertaker and Cor
oner called before the old chap let any
one know that he wasn t dead. lie came
to in some sort of bt which required a
great deal of kicking, and he took good
care that every kick counted on some
thing. When sufficiently restored to sit
up, he was given nearly 'a pint of wine.
and as his strength increased, he got
away with enongh lunches for four men.
It was then deemed good policy to hand
him half a dollar and turn him out upon
the world. Just how much profit the
saloon keeper made in playing the mor
phine trick, is what will puzzle bim for a
week to come.
: Cold Cabbage.
George Abrahams was extravagantly
fond o. cold cabbage, and, one day,
seeing that quite a dishful was left
after dinner, asked his wife if she
would save it for his salad at night.
. About midnight George come home
laboring under a stress of heavy
weather. Feeling hungry, and thinking
of his favorite cabbage, he asked where
it was. :
His wife replied: "In the pantry, on
the second shelf.
Down he went, found the cabbage,
got out the oil, mustard and vinegar,
cut up the cabbage, dressed it to the
queen s teste, and ate it ail.
In the morning his wife noticed the
plate of cabbage where she had placed
it the night before, and, turning to her
"dear George," innocently-asked him
why he did not eat the cabbage.
"I did," he said.
"How did you like it?"
"Oh, not very well; it was tough and
stringy." ;
"But here is the cabbage; where did
you find any more?" .
"Why, on the second shelf, where
you told me."
A quick glance at the shelf by the
wife, and then a cry of agony.
"Why. George, you have "eaten $20
worth of lace collars and cuffs that I had
put in starch; stringy cabbage, indeed."
Tbe Idbal Smokes. Tis a delight to
watch him. Lazily leaning back in his
chair with his feet on the table, be gently
draws into his system the fragrant aro
matic smoke, and removing his cigar
carefully from his month, lest the white
ashes should fall, he blows into the air a
succession of vaporous circles, watches
them float for a second, expand and break
into etheral bine. He sees in them
bright visions, satisfying day dreams,
and he again inhales from his brown
Havana the gentle narcotic that soothes
his nerves and gives him unbounded rest
from business cares. If we could be sure
of enjoying a cigar as this man does, we'd
learn to smoke before night, if it laid ns
on a bed of sickness for a week. f New
