BBOWYHIE. KEBEASKA. THURSDAY, XOVEMBER 11 1878.
Smile Whenever You Can.
"VThezx things don't go to suit you,
Anil the vorld seems upsldedown,
Don't waste your time in fretting,
But drive away that frown ;
Since life is oft perplexing.
'Tis muoh the wisest plan
To bear all trials bravely,
And smile whenever you can.
Why should yoH dread to-morrow.
And thus despoil to-day ?
For when you borrow trouble.
Yon must expect to pay;
It is a good old maxim.
Which should be often preached
Don't cross the bridge before you
Until the bridge Is readied;
You might be spared much sighing
If you would bear In mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined :
There muit be something wanting ,
And though you roll in wealth,
You miss from out your casket
Tnat precious jewel health.
And though you're strong and sturdy,
You may have an empty purse
And earth has many trials
Which I consider worse;
But whether joy or sorrow
Fill up your mortal spau,
'Twill make your pathway brighter
To smile whenever you can.
MES, ATKINSON'S BABY.
Terrific 3Iid-uigIit.Ad venture The
Police to the Kescue.
I
The Atkinsons have had a terrible
time over their baby. Mr. Atkinson
sent home a ftldiujj crib, with the
elata made in two pieces and hung up-
ou hinges. When they opened their
crib and put the mattress in it, Mr.
, Atkinson omitted to fix securely the
j catches that holds the slats. Mr. aud
Mrs, Atkinson went to bed early that
night, aud about 11 o'clock, while
they were asleep the baby got awake

res-ult.was that the slats slowly de-
jsceuded, and deposited the mattress
and baby ou the floor. The baby, be-
i ing particularly wideawake, aud see-
mg the light iu the entry, went
through the doiT just as Mr. Atkiu-
ihou aunt, Mis- JJoggs, was coming
j up stairs to bed. She picked the baby
' up, and, finding th t its father and
mother were asleep, she carried it to
her room iu the third story, determin
ed to take care of it the rest of the
I
. night.
i
i About an hour after Mrs. Atkinson
. woke and thought she would glance
i over at the crib to see how the babv

bed in alurm. the baby was not
there! The bottom seemed to have
fallen out of the whole contrivance.
Her first thought was that the baby
was lying under the mattress smoth- j
ered to death. She pulled the mat-j
tress aside, but there was no sign of
the uuby.
Theu. wild with alarm, she shook
Mr. Atkinson, and told him to get up.
Atkinson growled out in a sleepy
tone
The paregoric bottle is iu the clu
et ; go and get it yourself.
'Alouzo !' shrieked Mrs. Atkinson,
'you dou't understand. The baby is
gone! Itisgoue! stole! kidnapped,
may be! Oh, what shall I do? what
shall I do?
'2-Tow becalm, Julia,' said Atkinson
getting out of bedr 'don't get hysteri
cal ! The child, most likely, is under
the bed.'
'Xo.it isn't; no, it's not there!" ex
claimed Mrs. Atkinson, upon her
hands and knees.
'Possibly,' said Alonzo, beginning
to feel uneasy, 'be has crept into the
closet ; let us look,'
This is horrible !' said Mrs. Atkin
son, clasping her hands.
'Doyou thing,' asked Mr. Atkinson,
'that he could have crawled into a bu
reau drawer, and pulled it in after
him ?'
'Certainly not' said Mrs. Atkinson,
'You know he couldn't.'
'I think I hear him now. He has
fallen out of the window!' said Mrs.
Atkinson, as a faint wail floated up
from the back yard.
'Xo, it's only Mrs. Magruder's cat
yowling, replied Atkinson as he clos
ed the sash. 'Have ou looked in the
bath tub in the next room ? Perhaps
he has gone to take a bath.'
'Drowned, I kuow it, I'm sure of it,"
yelled Mrs. Atkinson, rushing into
the bath room.
He's not here,' said Atkinson.
j 'Could he have goue down stairs and
fallen into the sugar, bucket iu the
pantry?'
'We must search the whole house
for him,' said Mrs. Atkinson.
So thev bPL'QIl thf hnnr Tl.o,. tt-
I per, in the kitchen cupboard, in the
i pantry, and even the cellar, but with
out avail.
'He couldn t nave gone up stairs.
said Mr. Atkinson, 'because hn rr.-m'!
climb the'steps.'
'Xo ; he must have been stolen !
He has been stolen by burglars? I
shall never, never see him again
never!'
-uon-1 give way, Julia. Becalm. I i
will go at once for the police.'
Mr. Atkinson dressed himself hur
riedly and dashed down stairs and out
into me street. He met a policeman I
almost at the door , and in frantic ac
cents laid the case before him. The
. policeman sounded an alarm aud soon
SIX ther PHc8men at hand.
T?.ey entered the houe and Proceed-
edtoexamine the fastenings. Everv-
thing was right, and one of the police
f oo?fl
'
'In my opiniou, the burglar is in the
uousc yet.
We'll go for him,' said another.
So they drew their revolvers and
proceeded to search the building.
Presently Mr. Atkinson heard there
port of a pistol in the kitchen. He
rushed down.
'I think I've killed himsaid police
man Jones. 'Bring a light, quick.'
And killed the baby,' said Mrs. At
kinson. By. George I forgot about the ba
b$ , said the officer.
Then the light came, and they found
that policeman Jones had shot his dog
which had followed him into the
house. Then policeman Smith's pis
tol went ofTaccideutally, and the bul
let hit the kitchen clock, which at
once struck nine hundred and eighty
one, aud the confusion aud racket so
unstrung Mrs. Atkinson's nerves that
she went iuto hysterics and emitted
successive yells of a terrific character.
This brought Miss Boggs down from
the third story in great alarm.
What on earth is the matter?1 she
called.
Matter?' said Atkinson. 'Don't
you know that burglars have broken
into the house and stolen the babiT.
Why, we've been having the awful
est time you ever heard of for the last
two hours.'
Why, J've got the baby up fetairs
with me, said Miss Boggs; -I've had
him all night.'
'You have?' exclaimed the party in
a breath.
Certaiuly.'
'Do you mean to tell me,' asked At
kinson, with supernatural calmness,
'that that baby was quietly asleep iu
your room all this time?'
Yes.'"""
Atkicson simply looked at her. He
felt that language was unequal to the
expression of his feelings. Mrs. At-
fe, flevv st&i t t
r
time. The policemen laughed and
filed out, Jones pulling his deceased
dog by the tail. Atkinson went to
bed with raging auger in his soul;
and the next morning he put a sheet
iron bottom, fastened with rivets, up
un that folding crib.
AX AWFUL lVAEXIXU.
liaised iu Luxury aud Died iu a Poor
House a'Story of Degradation
and Shame
Said an alleged newspaper last Sun
day : "Kate Moher, a fallen creat
ure, concerning whose life much news-
bupport to me uouun iiror iouw.'
The Inter Ocean has several times,
within a year past, touched on the ca
reer of this woman, in the hope that
an effort might be made by some char
itable fcoul to save her, but if any such
ellort was made it appears to have
beeu abortive, for only a few days ago
she was taken to the Arino- helpless
ly drunk. Thence- she went to the
Poor rloute ; thence she goe to her '
grave. It is fittiug that something
should be written about this woman ;
her terrible fate eonveys a warning,
however, briefly it may be stated.
Within two short years she fell from
affluence to poverty, from innocence
to the direst degradation, from hon
ored motherhood to become a magda
leu, one of those whom "Dumas calls
Camille, whom Goethe calls Margue
rite, whom Pope calls Helpise, whom
Hawthorne calls Hester, whom Dick
ens calls Xiiltle Emily, and whom all
the world calls 'that unfortunate wo
man." "
Her name was Kate Southwick, a
name known and respected to this day
in Louisville, where a husband and
son, while not daring to mention the
name of the one now dead, mourn in
secret the fate of a wife and mother.
Ten years ago she was a topical
daughter of the Blue Grass region;
tall, dark-haired, handsome, high
spirited, and accomplished. Remi
niscences of the war were passing
away and trade in the south was re
viving. Among the most prosperous
of the rising young merchants in
Louisville was Robert Southwick,
who wooed and won the subject of
this sketch. Things prospered with
the merchant till he was rated as
worth half a million, and his hospit
able board, presided over by his fasci
nating wife, is btill remembered by
many still moving in the beet circles.
The panic of 1S73 affected South wick's
financial standing, but not seriously ;
but loss following loss, the year 1S76
found him bankrupt. Even at this
point iti? not positively alleged that
his matrimonial relations were not of
the brightest, but it is darkly hinted
that the demon of jealou-y had taken i
possession of the heart of his wife.
Anyway, when the crash came, she
left him, but not for good, it was un
derstood. She was to come to Chica
go fora change, till the tide of misfor
tune had swept by, and her husband
had prepared another home for them.
Possibly the pair had somewhat wea
ried of each other's society, and felt
that an enforced absence m igh t "make
the heart grow fonder," aud beter fit
them for a life partnership in some
what humbler circumstances. So
Kate Southwick left Louisville, and.
bringing with her the boy that had
been boru to her, then 6 years old,
she came on here. She secured board
at a swell boarding house ou Wabash three motherless ones will cuddle j in depth. If you have man y, select a duot that apoisonous propertyfa im
avenue, and, unprotected by husband, j close togetherand whisper their grat-j well-drained spot with a firm' bottom. Prted to tbe herb by the- coloring
father, brother, or any male relative, itude thatcannot be losttothem, even j Digout four or five inches-of soil, lea- Pces. Chinamen never drink
enjoyed herself with the freedom and in the storms and drifts of winter, '. viug the bottom smooth and hard. ' "green " tee.
inrienenHon na nf n nortsin oln c nf
American ladies. Dining at public
restaurants, attending the matinees,
,
etc., alone or attended only by her
boy, she soon became noticeable to the
harpies who appear to hav6 nothing'
to do but to hang around street cor
ners and leer at women. Her fatal
inheritance of beauty, and her unpro
tected condition, rendered it almost
impossible that she should escape.
And she fell. Then realizing her ter
rible crime, she immmediately did the
last known act of her life, which is
commendable, she sent her child back
to its father, and then plunged deep
ly into dissipation and vice. Then
she was robbed of her diamonds,
probably by some of the harpies who
had captured her; then removed from
the Wabash boarding house, and be
came the mistress of a gambler, till
his death separated them. Theu she
went down to the lowest depths, even
to becoming a bat, that flitted around
by night, unfit to beseen by day, with
her still fair face marred by disease.
(Then she drank to drown the thoughts
of home and husband and child, and
then came the touch of the policeman's
band, and the iron barred cell. Petty
theft and habitual drunkenness fol
lowed soon, then the poor house, and
then death, merciful death.
It is terrible. Under thirty years of
age, such a training, such a home,
such friends, and such a life the past
two years. Pauper hands closed the
eyes and composed the limbs of the
once Kentucky belle, but the body
will not find a pauper's grave. The
husband, who could not breathe her
name in life, will forgive in death,
and take the remains of the poor lost
one tottheir old home, and teuderly
lay them away.
Earth's Lone Children.
BY if. QUAD.
A boy, not over 11 years old, whos-e
pinched face betrayed hunger, and
whose clothing could scarcely be call
ed by the name, dropped into a car
penter shop the other day, and after
much hesitation explained to the fore
man :
"We want to get a grave-board for
ma. She died last winter, and the
graves are so thick that we can't hard
ly find her's no more. We went up
lust Sunday, and we came awful near
j not finding it. e thought we'd git
j a grave-board, so we wouldn't lose the
grave, wuen we thought we d lost
it, Jack he cried, and Bud she cried,
and m chin trembled so I could
hardly talk !
"Where is your father "? asked the
carpenter.
"Un, he's nome, but lie never goes!
itp there with-us,-aud we .shan't tell
him about the board. I guess he hat
ed ma, for he wasn't home when she
died, and he wouldn't buy no coffin
nor nothing. Sometimes, when we
are sitting on the door-step talkini:
about her. and Jack and Bud are cry-1
ing. and I'm rememberin' how she
kissed us all afore she died, he say?
wed belter quit.tiiat, or we'll get what ;
i bad for us. But we sleep up stairs.
and we talk aud cry ell we waut to.
How much will the board be?"
The carpenter selected something
fit for the purpose, and asked :
"Who will put it up at the grave ?"'
"We'll take it up on our cart," re
plied the boy, "and I guess the grave
yard man will help us put it up."
"You want the name painted on,
dou't you?"
"Yes, sir; we want the board white
and then wewantj-ou to paint on that
she was our ma, and that she was 41
years old, and that she died the 2d of
November, and that she's gone to
Heaven, and that she was oue of
the best mothers ever was, and that
we are going to be good all our lives
aud go up where she is when we die.
How much will it cost sir?"
"How much have you got ?"
"Well," said the boy, as he brought
out a little calico- bag and emptied its
contents on the bench. "Bud drawed
the baby for the woman next door and j
earned 20 cents ; Jack weeded in the
garden and earned 40 cents, and he
found 5 more in the road ; I run of er
rands and made kites, and fixed a boys
cart, and helped carry some apples in
to a store, aud I earned 65 cents. All
that makes 130, sir, and pa dou't know
we've got it, because we kept it hid iu
the ground under a stone.'
The carpenter meant to be liberal,
but he said :
"A grave-board will cost at least
$3.00."
The hd looked from his Jfttle store
of metals to the carpenter and beck,
realized bow many weeks had passed

USEFUL IXFORHATIOiY.
For easy removal of the unsightly
stable stains on the coats of white aud
gray horses, a foreign veterinarian
recommends the application of a
thick paste of finely powdered char
coal and water; let dry and rub off
with brush or wisp of strawand the
discoloration will be found to have en
tirely disappeared.
Virtues of Oxioxs. A mother
writes to an exchange : Once a week
invariably, aud generally when we
bad cold meat minced, I gave the
children a dinner which was hailed
with delight, and looked forward to ;
this a dish of boiled ouious. The lit
tle things knew that they were taking
the best of medicine for expelling
what most of children suffer from,
worms. Mine were kept free by this
remedy alone.
A Dainty Dish. Take pieces of
cold meats of any kind, chop fine,
season with pepper and salt, just a lit
tle onion ; break over the meat two or
three eggs ; add a small piece of but

nish with parsley.
If a ben'B spur is hard, and the
scales af the legs are rough, she is old,
whether you see her head or not; but
her bead will corroborate your obser
vation. If the under bill is stiff that
you cannot bend it down, and the
comb thick and rough, leave her, no
matter how fat and plump, for some
one less particular. A young hen has
only the rudiments of spurs ; the
scales on the legs are smooth, glossy
and fresh -colored, whatever the color
may be, the claws tender and short,
the nails sharp, the under bill soft,
and the comb thin and smooth.
A young lady writes to an exchange
giving a receipt for having fun. She
says, invite half a dozen boys and girls
to your house when your pa and ma
are away; put a half dollar silver piece
in a dish with molasses an inch deep
in it, and offer it to the boy who gets
it with his mouth. The more the-boys
try to get it, the "more fun there will
be.
"Cut up a young fowl aud put it in
a kettle, with one coffee oup of cold
water. Sprinkle with salt and pep

Rice Gkiddle Cakes. Cook half
a teacup of whole rice till every grain
is dissolved and likejelli. Warm half

Cleaning- the Teeth. A good
way to clean teeth is to dip the brush
in water, rub it over genuine Castile
soap, then dip into prepared chalk. A
lady says : "J have been compliment
ed upon the whiteness of my teeth,
which were originally anything but
white. I have used the soap constant
ly for two or Shree year, and the
chalk for the last year. There is no
dangerof scratching the teeth, as the
chalk is prepared, but with a good,
stiff brush and the soap is as effectual
as aaud sad soap on a floor."
