Once More United. The return to the Republican ranks of the better class of Liberal Republicans is a gratifying fact. It indicates a unity of Eurpose among intelligent citizens to eep Democracy out of power. This return t the party of tho6e vrho left in 1872 was to be expected. In that year personal grievances lot! to a rupture of party relations. The Democrats, tak ing advantage of this, thought to defeat the Republican party by accepting a life long Republican as their standard-tcarcr. The popular verdict rendered by the peo ple was not against Mr. Grwley as an in dividual, but against the party at his bak. Mr. Greeley might bo trusted; the Democratic partv, despite its promises, could not lc. Those Republicans who Toted for Mr. Greeley did so out of re aped lor his long service in the cause of human freedom. Their admiration for the man led them to overlook or disregard the dangerous political elements which would have neutralized his good inten tions had he been elected. In addition to this jtersonal devotion to an old leader many joinod the Liberal ranks, believing that a new party was to be formed that would draw from the two great parties their very bet material. Thus the Re publican party had been created, and it was thought that thus a great Lileral party rould be tormed. Thy had no desire to join the Democratic party. Between the two they preferred the Republican party, but they wanted something better than, either They failed in their design. The people were not ready to accrpt a third party; the majority had confidence in the one in power, and the Democrats refused to go out of their organization. So the Liberal movement failed, and the major ity of those vrho favored it have reunited in good faith with the Republican party. A lew designing men have endeavored to transfer them to the Democratic party, but they could not be bought or sold. They have opened their eyes to the fact that the issue is between the two great parties of the day, and that every vote cast for side issues is halt a vote "for the Democratic party. Knowing this, they will not be parties to placing in power a party that they know to le corrupt and unworthy of public support. These facts all point to a united party in li76, and through this unity to a brilliant Republican victory. liejubLe Jlaqazine. What the Records Show. "While we have intended to wage an ag gressive warfare upon the Democratic party, unmoved by the storm of loose ac cusation which has raged and still rages against the Republican party, the people must not lose sight of the facts of history. The records show that the Republican party has effected a reduction of f o-10,U00,-000 of the debt volume since 1S(50. It has reduced the annual interest charge about forty and a half millions. It has saved f 3,000,000 annual interest charge by fund ing 6 per cents, in bonds beaiing lower rales. It has reduced taxation nearly $200,000,000 annually since 1800. It has reduced the customs taxes about $60,000, 000 since 1373. Since the Republicans came into power they have raided the credit of the nation from 12 per cent, be low par to 20 per cent, premium. Mr. Buchanan was able to borrow only about half as much as he needed topay current expenses at 10 or 12 per cent. The na tion is now able to go Into the money market of the world and borrow at 5 per cent. This series of achievements would have been impossible had the public mon eys been squandered as our opponents al lege. They may accuse but they dare not lay the record before the people. The tact that Republicans invariably appeal to the record is a sutlicient reply to the dec lamation of the Democratic leaders. The Republican party has hiid the thankless task of paying tiie gambling debts tho Democracy laid upon it. l'robably we ought to expect nothing but abuse from the conscienceless spendthrifts. Phila delphia Aorth American. tW Secretary Chandler is better known in Detroit than anywhere else, and this is what the Detroit Free I'rc, the standard Democratic authority in Michigan, says of his appointment: "In this State, where Mr. Chandler is best known, and to which he is indebted for his political fortunes, his appointment will be looked upon as in some respects a good one. lie is univers ally recognized as a man of extraordinary energy, and his personal honesty has never been questioned. It is to his credit that in a Congressional service of eighteen years, much of it in a time when corruption was rampant, there was never the slightest sus picion that his hands were stained with ill-gotten gains. Whatever use he may have made of his position however he may have controlled Federal appointments to strengthen him in his place, or however unscrupulous, as Chairman of the Repuh lican National Executive Committee, he may have been in the use of anything or everything to win success for his party he has always remained, as a Senator and a man, unpurchased and unpurchasable. As Secretary of the Interior he will, if his past record furnishes any guarantee for the future, be thorough- honest himself, and insist upon honesty on the part of his subordinates. Nor is his honesty of the simple-minded sort which takes every thing as true. His is not a simple and confiding nature. On the contrary he is a man -of keen comprehension, shrewd and sagacious. No department under his charge could be honey -combed with fraud without his knowing it." A most deliberate and horrible sui cide recently occurred at Ansonia, Conn. John McKay, fifteen years old, on going to the mills of Ballard & Sons, found that he had been discharged from employment. He went to his boarding-house, paid his bills, took his clothing and went out in a despondent mood. Atdusk he went down to the railroad track, ascertained that a train would 9oon pass, took off his coat and lay down on the track. Two boys told hiiu to get up, and he mechanically obeyed, but al ter waiting a moment started and ran down the track over the timbers of a bridge until he was where no one could interfere with him. He waited here until the tmin, whose headlight shone brightly not far away.should pass, then he knelt down, put his head deliberately across the rail and threw his coat over his head. Before anyone could reach him the train had passed and left a quivering corpse behind. His head was very nearly severed from his body. tW Senator Anthony, in his paper, the Providence Journal, says of the new Sec retary of the Interior: "Mr. Chandler is a business man. He has acquired a great fortune by legitimate mercantile opera tions. He has distinguished himself by the advocacy of a sound currency, and has long been one ot the most reliable and trusted leaders of the Republican party. He is a man of great thoroughness and in dustry, lor which he w ill "rind abundant opportunity in his new position, and he is not ealy imposed upon. No m;m in public lite has been more shamefully lied alout, personally, politically and in every vi ay in which disappointed applicants, Hired politicians and repulsed black ruailers exhibit their venom; and nobody cares less about it." 5? The country has not yet forgotten the action of the Democratic party in lC-t, when in solemn conclave it declared the war a failure, and by so doing -threw odium and contempt upon our soldiers, r-ublished our national disgrace, and, so fir as the moral power of their acts was concerned, contributed to and invited na tional u waster and defeat hepublic Magazine. r3T The Republican State Committee of Florida has held a meeting and taken measures to secure an efficient organiza tion of the party in every county of the State. An address is to be issued setting forth the objects and principles of the Re publican party, and inviting the co-opera-Son and support of all liberty-loving and law-abiding citizens. A dozen cases of typhoid fever have recently occurred at Providence, R. I, caused by the use of a single well, the tTtef of which has been, analyzed and found to be impure.

I went up between the Marble Rocks in the early morning in a boat by moonligut and floated down in sunlight ; and as we moved slowly up that romantic chasm the drip of water from the paddles, and the wash of the stream, only showed how deep the silence was. A tiger had been doing some devastation in the neighborhood and one of the boatmen whispered that we might have a chance of seeing it come down to drink at the entrance or the cult. or moving along the rocks above, w'hich of course, made the position more interest ing. The marble walls on one side, which sparkled like silver in the moonlight, re tlected so white a radiance as almost to illumine the shadow of the opposite cliffs but the stream itself lay in deeper shadow, with here and there shafts ot dazzling light falling upon it; and above, the moon beams had woven in the air a silvery veil, through which even the largest stars shone only dimly. It did not look at all like scene on earth, but rather as if we were entering the iortals of another world Coming down in the brilliant sunlight the chasm appeared less weird but hardly less extraordinary. Larjre lish bf can to lean at the dragon flies, which skimmed over the surface of the water; monkeys ran along the banks above, and chattered angrily at us; many peacocks also ap pea red above, uttering their harsh cries and the large lees' nests which hun every here and there from the marble rocks began to show unpleasant symp toins of lite. Let every visitor to this place beware how he disturbs these fero cious and reckless insects. They are very large; Iheir sting is very poisonous, and they display a fury and determination in rescnliuz any interference which makes them most formidable enemies. Two En glishmen, I was told, were once floating through the chasm, when a ball, which one ot them had fired at a peacock, slanted oil from the rock and unfortunately happened to hit one of these nests. The con.-equeuce was that the bees immediate ly swarmed about the boat, and stung one of its occupants, who was unable to swim. so severely that he died Ironi the effects. His companion leaped into the stream and floated down with it; but even then cloud of bees followed him for a long way, watching his movements, and immediate ly attacked his face and every portion of his body which appeared lor an instant above the surface of the water. Abode of ijiunc. The History of rostage-Stanips. The introduction of the postal S3stem as it at present exists in all countries of the L'lole has been credited to England, where in li40 covers and envelopes were devised to tarry letters all over the King dom at one nennv the simrle rate. This plan was adopted through the exertions of Sir Rowland 1IUI, who has been aptly termed the 44 father of postage-stamps." It now appears, however, that there is an other aspirant for the introduction of the stamp system. In Italy, as tar back as ISIS, letter-sheets were prepared, duly stamped in the left lower corner, while letteis were delivered by specially-ap pointed carriers on the prepayment of the money which the stamp represented. The early stamp represented a courier on horseback, and was of three values. It was discontinued in lb30. Whether Italy or Great Britain first introduced postage stamps, other countries afterward began to avail themselves ot this method lor the prepayment of letters, although they did not move very promptly in the matter. Great Britain enjoyed the monopoly of stamps for three years, and thou;h the first stamps were issued in 1840 she has made fewer changes in her sb.mps than any other country and has suffered no change at all in the main design the portrait of Queen Victoria. In other countries, notably in our own, the Sand- w ich Islands and the Argentine Republic, the honor of portraiture on the stamps is usually distributed among various high public officers ; but in Great Britain the Queen alone figures on her stamps and not even the changes that thirty-five years have made in her face are shown on the national and colonial postage-stamps. The next country to follow the example of England was Brazil. In 1U42 a scries of three stamps was issued, consisting simply of large numerals denoting the value, and all printed in black. Then came the cantons' in Switzerland and Fin land, with envelopes which to-day are very rare, and soon alter them Havana, Belgium, France, Hanover, New South Wales, Tuscany, Austria, British Guiana, Prussia, Saxony, Schleswig-Holstcin, Spain, Uenmark, Italy, LMdenburg, Irin idad, Wurtemburg and the United States Other countries followed in the train, un til, at the present moment, there is scarce ly any portion of the globe inhabited by -1 i i - i i . . civiuzeu pcopie wmcuuas nut posiage- slamps. bt. A icholas. Xot a Woman With a Decent Set ot Toes. Canova chose 500 beautifnl women from whom to model his Venus, and among tliem all he could not find a decent set of toes. If he lived nowadays what luck would he have under the dainty little buttoned boots, with their sharp-pointed heels? As soon as the helpless baby can put its foot on the ground, and before it can complain in words, shoes arc put on it by which the width of the toes is con tracted fully half an inch, and usually a stiff counter is ordered in the heel with some varue idea of 44 strengthening the ankle." From that time, no matter how watchful or sensible its parents may be in other respects, these instruments of torture always constitute part of its dress. The toes are forced into narrower space, year by year, 44 to give a good shape to the foot," until they overlap and knot and knob themselves over with incipient corns and bunions. IhenthehccI is lifted from the ground by artificial means, and thus the action of the calf-muscles is hindered and the elastic cartilage of the whole foot is stiffened at the earliest and most tender period of its growth. The results are a total lack of elasticity in the step and car riage and a fool inevitably distorted American women are noted for their cramped and mincing walk. Southern children are more fortunate in this matter than those in the North, as it is custom ary, even in the wealthiest classes, to let their feet go uncovered until the age of six. Mothers in the North are not wholly to blame, however, as the climate requires that the teet shall be covered, and It is al most imiKxssible, even in New York, to find shoes properly made for children, un less a last is ordered for the foot. As a new last would be required every month or two, very few parents are ab'.e to give the watchfulness and money; but, if the proper shape were insisted upon by those buying shoes, dealers would quickly furnish them. Nothing is more prompt than the replv of trade to any hint of a .new want of fashion. if priny field (JIass.) Itspublican. n Intrepid Kope-Dancer. The rail MaU Gazette says: The excite ment caused by the mishap of 44 Jove the Thunderer" the other day at the Crystal I'al.ce recalls a similar "scene that took place s-ome fifty years since at Aachen. A vast gathering of people of all nations were met on the Platz to see a celebrated rope dancer, an Englishman, mount on a line from the ground to the top of a high tow er. It was the first time, so it was given out, that such a inode of ascent had been attempted. The anxiety of the spectators was strained to the utmost in watching the performer, who, with careful steps, was making his way up the line, when suddenly from one of the w indows of the tower a rival was seen to come out and rapidly march down the rope. Certain death to both seemed inevitable. But as the' met the man going up crouched down, clinging close to the rope, his opponent took a flying leap over the prostrate figure, regaining his footing on the rope, and finished ids descent in safety. The daring Serformer of this feat was a Gernwi stu cnt who hail been brought forward by King Frederick William 111., jealous of the national honor even in rope-dancing, to cast the much-boasted performance of the English acrobat into the shade. The young man has since become known as the celebrated Kolter a name as well known in Germany as Blop,d la at the Crys tal Palace, After Many Tears. A touching and strangely romantic In cident has occurred recently la the history of a family living on the West Side. A husband and wife and family have been reunited after an involuntary estrange ment of fourteen years. The gentleman, whose name is suppressed as he shrinks from publicity, was among the first to re spond to the call for troops at the out break of the rebellion. He enlisted from a town in Wisconsin in which he then re sided early in 1801, and since that time no tidings were heard from him until a few days ago, when he resppeared among the members of his family who had long mourned him as dead. The vicissitudes of war early threw him into Andcrsonville prison, where he endured the privations and sufferings inflicted upon persons in carcerated at that place. He remained there for thirteen months, and the letters which he constantjy addressed his family probably never passed beyond the prison gates, as none of them were ever received. This long-unbroken silence led his wife and children to the painful conclusion that he had fallen in battle, and after anxious inquiries as to his fate, none of which elicited a response, they mourned in common with thousands of other wives and children the loss of the husband and father who had taken up arms in defense of his country. At length the lady re moved from the Wisconsin village whence her husband had departed to the wars, and, after sojourns in several other places. came to Chicago, where she engaged iu the occupation of dress-maker, and where 6he has since resided. She remained widow, and the vicissitudes througn which she struggled to educate, maintain and keep her children with her would make a painful story. In the meantime the husband was liberated from Anderson- ville through an exchange of prisoners, and, again entering into active service, re mained in the army till the war was ended When his regiment disbanded he at once returned to his former home, there to find that his family had departed to where abouts unknown to any of their former neighbors. He visited various parts of the country in search of them, but all to no purpose. Homeless, wifeless and childless, he betook himself to other lands, and during his wanderings he has visited nearly every part of the globe. A few days ago the progress of his aimless travel brought him to Chicago, where, up on his arrival, he accidentally heard his wife was living. He sought and found her. I he scene at the recognition between the long-separated husband and wife is not easily depicted. Care and time had sown silver threads and left its impress upon the brows of both during the years ot their separation, but the old affec tionate emotions of their hearts the meet ing called to life again. The family are once more united, and the happiness of the future may perhaps lessen the pain of the recollection ol its absence during the many years of the past. Chicago Timet. Cant. Boyton's Water Voyage from Basle to Strasbourg. Capt. Boyton accomplished his voy age from Uasle to Cologne on the 4lh ot last month, a task more difficult even than swimming the British Channel, where at least he could be accompanied by friends who could render aid in case ot need Some newspaper reporters did, indeed. think of following the intrepid navigator in a small boat, but the rapidity of the current prevented them from doing so The Captain in his narrative says that when he plunged into the water a mist was spread over its surface so heavy that he could see but a short distance around For several minutes he was whirled along by the current, and only got w ith diffi culty to his true course where the two currents join. After awhile the mist cleared awav and he found himself near a village by which some workmen were busv on the shore. He took the vertical position and blew his horn, whereupon the workmen ran away 44 as if the devil was after them." People whom he met in boats regarded him askance, refused to give him any information, and doubtless thought him a supernatural being. Near Old Brisach he was seized by a whirlpool and was in great fear lest he should be dragged down by it, but by working en ergetically with hands and feet he re gained his course. He then rested a mo ment to eat and take some brandy, and when he struck the stream again he was whirled from right to left and from left to right in spite ot" all his endeavors to go precisely in the right direction. This lasted for some hours, when on a sudden the Cap tain heard a noise, which gradually grew louder and louder, and presently he found himself plunging and completely im mersed iu guryite tato amid the whirling waters of a branch of the river, but again emerged and was borne tranquilly back to the bosom of the Rhine, having invol untarily half-eircumna igated an island. Thence to Kehl nothing of moment oc curred, and at nightfall he found himself still at a distance from Strasbourg, with the trees on the banks nodding at him like gigantic specters and gradually all objects becoming indistinct. His posi tion was sufficiently perilous, and he had been enfeebled by the incessant tossings in whirlpools and eddies. lie feared be ing dashed against the bridge, from which he was some meters distant, when he saw it too late and was thrown with violence against a boat (the bridge is made of boats', and he was hurled to the lower side, where he arrived safely and blew his horn. A guard soon reached him and assisted him, so that in a short time he was in his hotel. X. Y. Graphic. Some Large Families. Says a writer in All the Tear Hound: About the year 1700 one Lady Elphinstone died the mother of thirty-six bairns, of whom twenty -seven were living at one time. The late Bishop Bathurst, of Nor wich, was the twenty-6ixth child of Mr. Bathurst, youngest brother of the first Lord Bathurst. But this is only part ot the story ; for Mr. Bathurst, who had twenty-two children by his first wife, was destined to have fourteen by his sec ond, making a good round three dozen altogether. Rather distinguished in this way were the Bat hursts; fori wo brothers and a sister of his had during their re spective married lives sixty-four children, which, with his thirty-six, made just an even hundred. Another married couple, Thomas and Helen Urquhart, are ranked among those who have had thirty-six children. The parents lived at Cromarty Castle in the early part of the sixteenth century, their twenty-five sons all grew up to manhood, and many of them became distinguished, while the eleven daughters all lived to be married, and many of them to be the mothers of large families. The Urquhart blood, therefore, must have been rather extensively diffuscd,in Scotland by the end of the century. An authenticated case of thirty-nine brothers and sisters was afforded by the Greenhill family in the closing years of the seventeenth century. Thomas Greenhill, a surgeon, afterward author of a treatise on the "Art of Em balming," addressed in 1008 a memorial to the Duke of Norfolk, in his capacity ns Earl Marshal of England : 44 That, in con sideration of vour Detitioner being the seventh son and the thirty-ninth child of one father and mother, your Grace would be pleased to signalize it by some particu lar motto or augmentation in his coat of armor, to transmit to posterity so uncom mon a thing. The College of Arms, or Heralds' College, of which the hereditary Earl Marshal is the official head, assented to the application of Thomas Greenhill bv granting an addition to the armorial bearings of the family. In the language of heraldry, which is not very intelligible to outsiders, the addition was in the form of a demi-griflin, powdered with thirty-nine mullets. Sewiso has been taught in the public schools of Boston for twenty-three years, and it is just now discovered that it is illegal to expend public money lor that purpose.

An entire line of them, loaded with building stones, are wearily shambling along. The long, bended neck apes hu niility, but the supercilious nose in the air expresses perfect contempt ior an modern life. The contrasl ot this haughty 'stuck- up-ativeness' (it is necessary to coin this word to express the camel's ancient con ceit) with the royal ugliness of the brute is both awe-inspiring and amusing. No human royal family dare be uglier than the camel. He is a mass of bones, faded tufts, humps, lumps, splay-joints and cal lositics. His tail is a ridiculous wisp and a failure as an ornament or a ny-brush His feet are simply big sponges. For skin-covering he has patches of old buf falo-robes, faded and with the hair worn off. His voice is more disaereeable than his appearance. With a reputation for patience, he is snappish and vindictive His endurance is overrated; that is to say he dies like a sheep on an expedition of any length it he is not well led. His gait racks muscles like an ague. And yet this ungainly creature carries his head in the air and regards the world, out of his great brown eyes, with disdain. I he bphinxis not more placid.

Everything else is modern, uo tor - Alaska is not a Territory to which the emigrant has been powerfully attracted hitherto. Its settlement has seemed likely to be postponed until that remote time when the inhabitants of all the rest of the countrv should begin to feel uncomforta blv crowded. If, however, anything can turn a steady current of travel toward a new land it is the discovery of gold there in. Report of such a discovery in Alaska has recently been made. It needs con firmation, it i? true, but that is all that is necessary to attract adventurers in greater numbers than could the most salubrious climate or a tropically rich soil. Gold digging is the least profitable of all dig ging to the diggers ; but that fesson is never learned by those persons who suffer most from ignorance of it. jS. i. liven ing Pout.

Nine large apples, peeled and prepared as for apple-sauce, three tablespoons sugar; cover tight in a sauce-pan, when done strain through a colander; beat the yelks of four eggs, mix with this the rind of two lemons, put it in the pudding dish and cover with the whites beaten to a stiff froth wi.th a table spoonful of sugar and juice of one lemon. Place the whole in the oven until the marange is slightly browned. To Pickle Sweet Apples. To one peck of apples make a sirup of four pounds of sugar and one quart of vinegar. Boil the apples in the sirup until tender, and then take them out and save that sirup for other sauce. Put the apples in ajar; boil five pounds of sugar and one quart of vinegar with some cinnamon and cloves twenty-five minutes, and pour it hot over the apples. This pickle is deli cious. A learned and practical savant, Sir. Dalbray, began in 1840 in the Garden of Plants, at Paris, a public course of lect ures on arboriculture. These lectures were illustrated by experiments on the ground, and were largely attended by land-owners and nurserymen from every part of France. In three years old routine systems of culture were done away with, and that of the vine especially became so much improved that its products soon formed by far the largest item in the re sources of that country. London Garden. Concerning the care of the feet the Scientific American very truly says: " Many are careless in the keeping of the feet." If they wash them once a week they think they are doing well. They do not consider that the largest pores are lo cated in the bottom of the foot, and that the most offensive matter is discharged through the pores. They wear stockings from the beginning to the end of the week without change, which become perfectly saturated with offensive matter.. Ill health is generated by such treatment of the feet. The pores are not repellants, but absorb ents, and this fetid matter, to a greater or less extent, is taken back into the system. The feet should be washed every day with pure water only, as well as the armpits, from which an offensive odor is also emitted unless daily ablution is practiced. Stockings should not be worn more than a day or two at a time. They maybe worn one day, and then aired and sunned and worn another day if necessary." The French Bouilli. The most com mon dish throughout France is a piece of plainly-boiled fresh beef, from which the soup has ben partly made and which is separately served up as bouilli, accom panied by strong gravy and minced veg etables or stewed cabbage. Now this, as dressed in the French mode, is ever deli cate, both in fiber and flavor; while in the usual manner of boiling it it is al most always hard and insipid. The reason, says that celebrated cook, Carcme, is this: " The meat is put in the pot with the usual quantity of cold water and placed at the corner "of the fireplace, where, slowly becoming hot, the heat grad ually swells the muscular fibers of the beef, dissolving the gelatinous substances therein contained and disengaging that portion which chemists term 'osmazone,' and which imparts savor to the flesh thus both rendering the meat tender and palatable, and the broth relishing and nu tritive; while, on the contrary, if the pot be inconsiderately put upon too quick a fire the boiling is precipitated, the fiber coagulates ancl hardens, the osmazone is hindered from disengaging itself, and thus nothing is obtained but a piece of tough meat and a broth without taste or succulence." Something: the Matter with the Piano. A few days ago I was over at Hall's Cros3-Roads to see a man named Parker about some lime. After our business was transacted Parker said : " I got cheated in a mighty curious way last week. I see in a paper a picture of one of them little pianners that they call " parlor organs," and as "the price was only seventy-five dollars, thinks I, I'll git one for Emeline to learn to play on. So I sent up the money by mail, and after a while down comes the pianner all boxed up as nice as you ever saw. "We got her out and set her in the house, and al though none of us knew how to play we thought we'd see how she sounded any way. Well, sir, I struck them keys as hard as I could, and it didn't make no noise. Then Mrs. Parker she tried, and Emeline tried, but we couldn't git the least particle of music out of her. "I knowed well enough then I'd been swindled, and that the reason why he sold the machine so cheap was that she hadn't no music anywheres inside of her. But I just thought I'd write to the man and see what kind of a game he'd set up on me before 1 went up and had him arrested. And what do you think he wrote back? He sent word back: 'You blamed fool, why don't you use the bellows?' "Well, you know, I didn't believe there was any thing in it; I knew he was just stuffing me, but Emeline she wanted to try, so I went over and borrowed Mrs. Grimes' bellows, and I blew them on the pianner while Mrs. Parker hammered them keys. But it was no use, of course. I knew how it would be. Won't play worth a cent; just the durndest swindle you ever saw. But I'm going to be even with him. If I don't git that money back I'll bang him over the head anyway." Then I asked Mr. Parker to 6how me the machine, and sitting down at it I filled the bellows with wind with my feet and played a couple of tunes that I knew. Parker was wild with amazement and en thusiasm. " Ilow'n the nation did you do that? Why, she does play, don't she? Mariar, Emeline, come yer, quick, tlm yer planner's a-going all right, and, by George! she's splendid! " Then I explained to him about the bellows being operated by the pedals, and he said: " And that's what that hole down there's for, is it? Well, now, would you believe it, but, great Moses! do you know I thought that was hollered out so's to let the music get out into the air? I'm a thousand times obleeged to you, and I'll tell you what I'll do; I'll (rushing to the window and calling) I say, Bill, send Mr. Adeler up four cart-loads of lime, and don't charge him a cent for it." lhen imeline turned in at the planner, and I left to catch the train. Max Adel-r, in iV. r. WeeJay. Political trademark .N.T. Herald Said a wife to her husband : "How is it that you can't come home nights in some sort of season?" The gentle retort was: iou got me in the way ot it. J3e- fore we were married you used to throw your arms about my neck at three o'clock ana say: Don t go, darling, it is ear 'y : cut now it I happen to stay out till two it is a terrible affair."
