PUBLISHED EVERY TH1URSDAY AT NEWBERRY S. C. HE WAS A LITTLE TOO LATE. A Tale of Conjugal Infelicity in the Penn sylvania Backwoods. I was riding along one of the moun tain roads of northern Pennsylvania recently, and bad got up into the hills about four miles from the railroad sta tion at Geetown, when I met a wild looking man on horseback with a bundle in front of him. He was evi dently a denizen of the lumber woods. He pulled up his horse when he met me, and exclaimed in anxious tones: "Say, boss! Y'didn't meet a feller drivin' a mule to a buckboard wagon anywhar on yer way up, did y'?" "Yes, I did," replied, for I had. "Were he gettin' along at a tol'able stiff gait?" asked the anxious woods man. "Yes, he was, come to think of it," I replied. "Seem ez if he were goin' to git thar' did he?" said the lumbermau. "Get where?" I asked. "To Geetown." "Tbere's'no doubt -about it," I said. "Were-tha a woman with him, did y'notice?" asked the man. "Yes, there was," replied. "Cross-eyed?" questioned the woods man. "I don't know about that." "Mole on her nose?" "That's more than I can say." "Were the mule lame in t'ie cff hind leg?" "I think he was." "Didn't notice whither the woman were cross-eyed, hey?" "Did the mrn have a valler baird?" "Yes; a lou-, )ellow beard." "From w'atlittley' see o' the woman, d'ye think tha were room enough on her nose for a good-sized mole?" "Well, yes, I think there was." "Did the mule wheeze consid'able as he spun by y'?" "He acted to me as if he might have a touch of the heaves:yes." "Couldn't sw'ar the woman wa'nt cross-eyed, could y'7" "Buckboard kind o'rattly in the spokes, an' actin' ez if a pint or two o grease wouldn't hurt it?, "It seemed that way." "Woman hev on a blue dress'n a green hat with a red feather in it?" "I remember the green hat with a red feather." "Were tha a gap in the buckboard's dash, sumpin' like ez if a mule's heels mowt'a' gone through it some time or other?" "Yes, there was a hole in the dash." "But y' hain't dead sartin th't tha were a mole on the woman's nose?" *- "Tha hain't no doubt, though, but w'at they was goin' to git thar?" "Not a particle." "Man in his shirt sleeves an' one gallus?" "Yes, I remember that he was in his shirt sleeves and wore but one suspen der." The saxious woodsman paused as if trying to think of something else to ask, but at last said: "Y'll bef to 'scuse me stranger fer bein' so kinder cur'ous, but mebbe y' mow't know who them folks be?" "I haven't the least idea." "Wull, the mule 'n' the woman 'ni' the buckboard is mine. The man is Sim Bilger. He's slopin' with the wo man, 'n' it's jist my durn luck to be too late to ketch 'em, fer they've took the keers at Geetown afore this!" "What! The woman your wife!" "Course!" "Well," said .1, "it don't seenm to me that I would go to much trouble to -fetch such a woman back." "Fetch her back! Great hoop-pole! I hain't arter her to fetch her back!" "What were you in such hot pursuit of her for, then?" * "Wuli, it's this here way. Time she sloped with Bill Balls, a year ago las' spring, she kim back two or three weeks arterwi'es 'n' said she'd fergot some of her duds, 'n' she'd kim back to git 'em. I toP' her whar she k'd find 'em, but she jist settled down to hum ag'in 'n' were bossin' the clearin' same ez afore, in less'n half an hour. She run things fer a spell, 'n' thien sloped with Sama Fletcher, the mule boss. 'Twa'nt long 'fore she diskivered th't - she'd fergot to take sumpin' else o' her'n, 'n't she kim back to git it, 'n' first thing I know.'d I were workin' fer her agin. Las' fall she cut sticks 'n' dug out with Joe Fassett. "'Gosh!' I says. 'I hope Samianthy's mem'ry hain't ben bad this time!' I says. 'If she's fergot anytbin' this trip I mow't ez well move out!' "But sure ez sap she'd ben fergitful again, 'ni' twan't three weeks 'fore she kim prancin' back hum arter sumpin' she'd left ahind her, 'ni' me'n' her went to workin' in harness ag'in. Now along comes Simu Bilger, 'n' $amanthy puts on her bes' bib 'n' tucker 'n' slopes with him, 'n' I'm too durn late to ketch 'em!" "Let 'em go!" I said. "What do you want to waste your time chasing up such cattle for?" '-Let 'em go!" exclaimed the anxious husband. "Course I'll let 'em go! But here's a lot o' things in this here bundle th't Samanthy's fergot! WVat I wanted were to overhaul her 'n' give 'em to her so she wouldn't hef to come back arter 'em! Now she'll 'member 'em in a week or two, 'n' consarn it! she'll come horne a hummin'! It's just my durn luck!" - And the disappointed husband turned his horse about and galloped disconso lately awvay. Always After Him. "Why do you suppose woman was made after man ?" asked 31izs Barrow. "Because," returned Cynicus, "it is part of her nature to be after man."

[St. Nicholas.] Far over the sea is a famous little country generally known as Holland; but that name, even if it mean Hollow land or How land, does not describe it half so well as this-the Funny Land of Pluck. Verily, a queerer bit of earth was never shone upon by the sun, nor washed by the tide. It is the oddest, funniest country that ever raised its head from the waves (and, between ourselves, it does not quite do that), the most topsy-turvy landscape, the most amphibious spot in the universe. and the man in the moon can't deny the chosen butt of the elements, and, good-naturedly, the laughing stock of mankind. Its people aTe the queerest and drollest of all the nations, and yet so plucky, so wise and resolute and strong, that "beating the Dutch" has become a by-word for expressing the limits of mortal performance. As for the country, for centuries it was not exactly anywhere; at least it objected to staying long just the same in any one place. It may be said to have lain around loose on the waters of a certain portion of Europe, playing peekaboo with its inhabitants-now coming to the surface here and there to attend to matters, then taking a dive for a change of scene; and a most dis astrous dive it often proved. Rip Van Winkle himself changed less between his great sleeping and waking than Holland has altered many a time between sunset and dawn. All its permanence and resoluteness seerns to have been soaked out of it, or rather to have filtered from the land into the people. Every field hesitates whether to turn into a pond or not, and the ponds are always trying to leave the country by the shortest cut. One would suppose that under this condi tion of things the only untroubled crea tures would be turtles and ducks; but no, strangest and most mysterious of all; every living thing in Holland ap pears to be thoroughly placid and con tent. The Dutch mind, so to speak, is at once anti-dry and water-proof. Lit tle children run about in fields where once their grandfathers sailed over the billows; and youths and maidens row their pleasure boats where their ances tors played "tag" among the haystacks. When the tide sweeps unceremno uiously over Mynheer's garden, he lights his pipe, takes his fishing rod, and sits down on his back porch to try his lucs. If his pet pond breaks loose and slips away, he whistles, puts up a dam so that it cannot come back, and decides what crop shall be raised in its vacant place. None but the Dutch could live so tranquilly in Holland; though, for that matter, if it had not been for the Dutch, we may be sure there would have been, by this time, no Holland at all. And yet this very Holland, besides holding its own place, has managed to gain a~foothold in almost every quarter of the globe. An account of its colo nies is a history in itself. In the East Indies alone it commands twenty-four millions of persons. They Have Hobbies. The King of Italy takes great interest in raising camels. Bishop Coleman of Delaware spends his vacations in pedestrian trips in the Virginia mountains. The Princess of Wales has become an adept in amateur photography. She carries about a detective camera. Baron Nathan de Rothschild's hobby is photography. He commences his pleasure each day at 6 a. in., and trans fixes many a family scene and view. The Duchess of Connaught quite equals Richelieu in the fondness for cats. Her favorite pet is one of these little animals imported from the land of the Shah. It is one of Mr. Blaine's peculiarities that he has always preferred to speak out of doors. He would.rather talk among the pine trees than in any hal in the world. Russell Sage carries sixty-four cnrious coins for luck. One of the most pre cous isa penny that he found in his boyhood. He would not part with these coins for a (railway) prince's ran som.

PUBLIU SAFETY DEMANDS That only honest and reliable medicines should be placed upon the market. It can not, therefore, be stated too emphatically, nor repeated too often. that all who are in need of a genuine Blood-purifier should be sure and ask for Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Your life, or that of some one near and dear to you, may depend on the use of this well-approved remedy in prefer ence to any other preparation of similar name. It is compounded of Honduras sar saparilla (the variety most rich in curative properties). stillingia, mandrake, yellow dock, and the iodides. The process of man ufacture is original, skilful, scrupulously clean, and such as to secure the very best medicinal qualities of each ingredient. This medicine is not boiled nor heated, and is, therefore, not a decoction; but It is a com pound extract, obtained by a method ex clusively our own, of the best and most powerful alteratives, tonics, and diuretics known to pharmacy. For the last forty years, Ayer's Sarsaparilla has been the standard blood-purifier of the world-no other approaching It in popular confidence or universal demand. Its form ula is approved by the leading physicians and druggists. Being pure and highly con centrated, it is the most economical of any possible blood medicine. Every purchaser of Sarsaparilla should insist upon having this preparation and see that each bottle bears the well-known name of . C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Nass. In every quarter of the globe Ayer's Sar. saparilla is proved to be the best remedy for all diseases of the blood.
