L'oinc here, sis, Jind sit down ! beside me, and let me give you a -, little talkinjr to That is njrht. i Sit clear at tiie other end of the sofn. It makes more room for my gout and corns, besides it being a good habit for a young lady to become addicted to. Always pander to this habit, and you will in time find 3'ourself walking through green meadows and be side the still waters of self-respect. You may be walking alone, to be hure, but will have fewer lawn dresses to do up on Monday morn ing. 1 wihh to speak to you of your mother. It may be that you have noticed a careworn look upon her face lately. Of course it has not been brought there by airy act of yours; still, it is your duty to chase it away. 1 don't mean for you to run at it and shake your skirts and tell it to "shoo," as you would a hen, nor do I expect you to get on the other side of the fence and throw old oyster cans and pieces of old barrel staves at it, as 3011 did at the cow yester day. But T want you to get up to-morrow morning and get break fast, and when your mother comes down and begins to express sur prise, go right up and kiss her on the mouth. You don't imagine v .c , ui.s..t,, ,.w uu.u iace. iiW.u0ouuB.iBiah.0nmbe , ,ipr and better for having Away back when you were a lit- lie girl, she kissed 3'ou when mo one else was tempted by 3'ourj fever-tainted breath and swollen face. on were not as attractive then as 3011 are now. And along through these 3cars of childish sunshine and shadows she was always ready to cure, and 03 the magic of a mother's kiss, the little, dirty, chubb3 hands whenever the3 were injured in those first skirmishes with this rough old world. And then the midnight kisses with which she has routed so nianv' bad dreams, as she lean ed above 3our restless pillow, have nil been on interest these Ion- loiiffvcare. Of course she is not so pretty and kissable :us you are, but if you had done your share of I the work during the last ten3'ears, the contrast would not be so mark ed. ITer face has more wrinkles than 3'ours, and if you were sick that face would appear to you to be more beautiful than any angel's, as it hovered over you, watching every opportunity to minister to your comfort, and every one of those wrinkles would seem to be bright wavelets of sunshine chasing each other over the dear old face. She will leave you one of these days. Those burdens, if not lifted from her shoulders, will break her down. Those rough, hard hands, that have done so man iliin&rs necessar for you, will be crossed upon her lifeless breast. Those neglected lips that gave you your first baby kiss will be forever closed, and those sad. tired eyes will have opened in eternity, and then you will appre ciate your mother; but it will be too late. There, there; don't cry; she has not left you 3et. She is down in the kitchen stringing beans for dinner, and if you feel so badly you might go down and finish them, and let her change her dress and rest an hour before dinner. And after dinner 3'ou might do up the dishes while she takes a little nap. Then you might take down her hair and do it up for her. You need not wind it over your finger and fuss to make little spit curls as you used to do with 3 do with yours, but give it a J 001 brushing and wind it upj gently and tenderly, as if you en- joyeu uomg it lor ner. inc young man down in tne parlor can wait until you have performed i these duties. If he expresses anv i . . , A i ! lmnattence. von mav explain to - thnt "rft0i nmw more (lu. i cations to your mother than you do him. If this does not seem to satisfy him, ask how many times he has got up in the middle of the night to warm peppermint for 3011 when 3011 were (lyim with the colic, or how maiy hours hn has carried 3ou up and down the room just because you would not be quiet anv other way? Ask him to repeat Mother Hubbard ) tekwards. and if he is unable to do it, it will be a proof positive that he is not the one that has repeated it and ex plained it to you 1,700 times. Catechise him to find out if he is the one who gave 3011 the black silk dress and sat up to make it while 'OU were off having a good time. Corner him up and make him admit that he went without a new bonnet last winter that 3011 might enjo3 a $12 one that you admired so much. Wring from J him a confession tliat he has a stitch in his side, brought there 03 doing up 3'our finery week after week. Then show him out of our front door, put on a calico apron, and help mother pick currants for jelh, and 1 guarantee 3011 will think more of ourself, the world wU1 think more of yoilj sl(l you w .-Capc Cod Item. . One .Mr. Grist Martin,an old and experienced distiller, writes in a Peoria paperon the present and possible future of the distillery business in the United States. Uc says there are now on hand in this country 130,000,000 gallons of whisky, of which 90,000,000 are in bond in the government warehouses. The foreign demand has fallen from "200,000 barrels in 1S80- 31 to almost nothinir. The distillers, however, have to keep i L "c,c JirK uv w,s "S umi m their machinery in order, and thcina'le no e,ro,, to !5!lvc '"yself, ,tt; .,., ..:;..i:. aot hold of him and drew him to uiviiiiLiiwii iztji.o JH) aiiiiiuaiiui: an increased demand. This Mr.",e DanK' "-- tnscovcrcu Martin, however, claims that tl0 j thnt the iiegn. was still asleep, his 00,000,000 American people of the present day drink less whisky than 23,000,000 people did thirty years ago. This reduction of the aver age and the total consumption of spirits, he insists, is the result of the introduction of lager beer as a general beverage'of the Americans, and he pronounces lager beer "the worst enemy whisky has to face in the United States to-daj." Colorado's mining exposition is now in good working order, and is well spoken of by those who have vi.Mted it. Tons of jjlitterinjr ore, rich in lead, iron, silver and gold, lie in heaps or piled in pyia mids. The exhibition admits agri cultural as well as mining pro ducts. Denver is as proud of this show as Paris or Philadelphia was of its world's fair, since it almost exclusively represents the products of western soil. There is a Corliss engine, just as in Philadelphia, and even a gallery of paintings is add ed. Leadville contributed a mili tary display for the opening:. It is believed that the exhibition will pay its projectors; if so, it will prove an exception to the ordinary rule of such displays. A Portland young lady was looking at some hoisery, last week, and asked the clerk: "How do you sell those?" at the same time holding up before him a long pair of zebra-colored ones. "Those are worth 5 a pair," he answered. "Oh, mv," twittered the iriddv crettture, "they come pretty hi-h dont the r --V-v-vo.;" f lliercd thc basi,ful y;uthj th.th come p-pi-pretty high; bu-bu-but j you're pretty tall, you know.1 Advice of Dan Pelter's '-Dan, said Mrs. Pelter, as she i i " i i l : -when V nuui nci Wft fjau-i-mf; the seat of Chubby's little trousers .wi rui ., ll- ... !,:, ..- I.-- uiju ii.v;u n ii.'vxt. .it .iiMi v..-. ..i cracked spectacles, -have ye paid , l.nt Irtllot. nnI nn nntitc t1nr vo ' tliet dollar and ten cents tliet3C fr PlocliAi- , oc -ur. 1 j.isiifi . 1 "ro hi Inocn't nonil it in'"tninr iNo, ne aoesn t noeu u an mint no count ter him " won't be nobody hut Dan Pelter.

One boat, which is oni3 twelve to fifteen feet long, cigar-shaped, with a pro peller worked by four men, and a suppl3 of compressed air, goes under the water at a 113 desired depth. Her normal balance is just below the surface, with on'13' a glass hood above the water for the lookout. . lie takes a sight and bearings, goes under the hostile ship, leaves a torpedo which sticks to the bottom, pa3s out an elec tric wire beyond range, touches it off, and the big ship is nowhere. The other does the same 011 a larger scale, being, propelled In steam. A darkey went to sloop whtlo fishing, and tumbled oil into deep water. He sank and rose a couple !of times, when his companion, old i tt i i f- r ? it. 1 1 cold bath having no (fleet on him whatever. I'nele Uiuk managed to awaken him by rolling him in the mud and wearing out two or three light wood knots over his head.

Chafuau have examined a site for a new town three miles west of Colfax, W. T., which will be chris tened Plainfied. The sito is now covered with waving grain, but as soon as this is cut the grading and building will be commenced. An Iowa man tied one end of a long cord to an aching tooth anil o the other to a heavy weight, which he dropped from a four-slory window.

Many wonder how Parker's Ginger tonic can perform sucli varied cures, thinking it essence of ginger, when in fact it is mado from many valuable medicines which act beneficially on even diseased organ. I was dying slowly but surely, not from Consumption, but from that equally destructive disease, Dyspepsia.
