A Coon Dog.?The Erie railroad has a
conductor named Coon, and the following i
dog story is told. A man had a wonderful !
good dog for coons. If there was a coon I
within a mile of the dog the coon's doom
was sealed, for the dog would certainly !
smell him out. One day the dog was out :
with his master after coons. They stopped '
at a railroad station just as the train drew ]
up. The dog came to a dead point on the <
train. The owner of the dog insisted that i
there must be a coon on board the train or I
that the train had run over a coon. The <
dog's nose could not be mistaken. The 1
train was searched, but there was no coon 1
and no gore on the wheels. The man's i
faith in his dog did not waver for an instant.
"Are you sure that there is no coon on <
board this train ?" he inquired of the brake- <
man. "I am sure that there is not. The ^
nearest thing to a coon is the conductor, and
his name is Coon." "That settles it," said
the owner of the dog; "I knew there was a
coon on this train."
"What Are We Here For."?The
member from Calabash was disgusted with
the manner in which time had already been
wasted without electing.a Senator; and
rising slowly to his feet wih majestic dignity,
his piercing eye swept the assembly
with a withering look, as he thrust one hand
in the bosom of his coat, waved the other
high in the air, raised himself on tiptoe,
and in tones of exalted pitch that startled
every drowsy member,thundered out:
"In heaven's name, Mr. Speaker, what
are we here for ?"
The little man from Blossom county, who
was doubled up in his seat writing a letter
to his wife, opened out like a spring jackknife,
and stood on his pins in an instant,
with both hands jabbed into his pockets to
the elbows as he answered the conundrum
with his usual bluntness:
"Six dollars a day and mileage !"?C/iica- \

1?-A certain Republican official has an
old colored man in his office who builds i
fires, sweeps out and holds the fort while i
the official goes out to "see a man," or on i
other business. The other day a visitor <
met the old darkey on the street. 1
"Sara," he called to him, "is Mr. X. in i
his office?" 1
"Yes, sail; less' ways he was when I come i
away."
"Well, I've got to go up to the next <
square; do you think he'll be there when I
I get back ?" 1
"I don't know 'bout dat, sah. Yo' see, <
boss, hits a gittin' mighty nigh on ter de .
time when yo' can fin' no 'Publicans in dar
offices, an' Ise a little shaky ebbery time I .
leabs de boss dat when I come back dar'll
be some Dimocrat er udder settin' in his '
cheer, jis cz if he owned de whole shebang. J
Yo' bettah go now, sir, an' be shu' uv 'im." 1
Foote and the Lawyers.?Foote nev- 1
er tired of roasting the lawyers with his \
wit, of which a sample may be given. A <
simple country farmer, who had just buried i
a rich relation, an attorney, was complaining
to him of the expenses of a country fu- 1
neral, in respect to carriages, hat bands, 1
scarfs, etc., were very great. "What, do i
yon bury your attorneys here?" asked i
Foote. ,rYes, to be sure we do; how else ?" 1
"Oh, we never do that in London." "No!" I
exclaimed the astonished countryman. 1
"How do you manage?" "Why when the i
patient happens to die we lay him out in I
a room over night by himself, throw open
the sash, lock the door, and in the morning {
he is entirely off." "Indeed!" said the <
other amazed. "What becomes of him?" 1
"Why that we cannot tell exactly; all we <
know is there's a strong smell of brimstone s
in the room next morning."?Temple Bar. (
A Generous Little Boy.?"Bobby," \
said his mother, "there are two pieces of
cake in the closet one for you and one for l
Grade. The one on the lower shelf is for *
you." i
Bobby broke for the closet and presently i
returned. i
"You said that the piece on the top shelf (
was for me, didn't you ?" he asked of his j
mother. *
"No," she replied, "that is Grade's. ?
The piece on the lower shelf is yours." t
"Well, I'm very sorry mamma, but I ate j
Grade's. But I'll tell you what I'll do," i
and a generous light shone in the clear lit- t
tie boy's eyes, "as soon as Gracie comes r
home I'll give her a part of mine."? New ]

46T"Did you see anything of a pocketbook
that I dropped somewhere in the bedroom
I occupied last night, landlord?"
"Anymoney in it?" "About SoOO." "Yes,
sir. Here is your pocket-book, with the
money. The maid was honest enough to
bring it to me and I locked it up in the
safe." "Ah, very correct proceeding?very.
I had intended placing the money in a savings
bank this morning, where it would
have been drawing 4 per cent. As a reward
for your honesty I will say nothing about
the interest for the time it has been in your
possession, and you can make it square with
the chambermaid. There is nothing small
about me when I run across a man who
seems to be trying to do what's right."?

j?f"I never did take much stock in that
story about fish being such fine brain food,"
inadvertently remarked Smith, "and I take
less stock in it than ever now that I've lived
off little else for some time past. I think
I'll quitthem."
"I wouldn't if I were you, old boy," feelingly
responded Smithers ; "you "see the
fish, in order to improve the brain, must
have something to work upon. They can't
create the thing."
And then Smith said thatSmithers talked
for all the world like his wife.?Oil City

WSr After the marriage of Miss Lillian
Sniggs, of Dallas, the bridal party partook
of a sumptuous banquet, toward the end of
which a younger brother of the bride got
up, and said solemnly, raising his glass:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have to propose
a toast, which, however, must be drunk
standing. Please take your glasses and rise
up." The guests, although somewhat bewildered,
did so. "Now," said the young J
scapegrace, "if you will remain standing i
for a few minutes, I'll find out who has !
been sitting on my new stovepipe hat."
1ST A student in the University of Texas, j
who had been leading rather a dissipated |1
life, wrote to his father, one of the most!
respectable citizens in Dallas: "Dear Pa?I !
had the misfortune to be upset in a boat | 1
while out rowing on the Colorado river. I
lost the beautiful watch which you gave me.
I would like some money to hire a man to i
dive for it. Your affectionate son, Thorn-1
as." The old gentleman, who is no fool,
replied : "It is not worth while diving for
it. It might as well be in soak in one place !
as another."?Texas Si/tings.
An Adjustable Simile.?Mr. Dusen
bury?"You have gone to housekeeping, I |
hear. Nicely fixed, I suppose?"
"Mr. Jenks?"Yes. My wife is perfectly I
delighted. She reminds me of a tea-kettle, '
she sings so pleasantly."
Mr. Dusen bury?"My wife often reminds !1
me of a tea kettle, too." i '*
Mr. Jenks?"In what way?" *
Mr. Dusenbury?"I never know when *
she is going to boil over." 1

"Now, you tell me I have a fair memory,
a great capacity for learning languages, 1
a large bump of veneration, and a well- 1
developed head generally." "You have," (
said the phrenologist. "Is thereanything," 1
asked the man under examination, in the :
exuberance of his joy, "that my head needs i
to make it absolutely perfect ?" "Yes." 1
"What is it, pray ?" asked the man. "A 1
shampoo."?Barber's Gazette. \
i
J?-"Why are we like angel's visits?" i
said a pretty girl on a sofa to a bashful <
lover, who was sitting lonesomeiy on a 5
chair at the other side of the room. "He- i
ally" he stammered and blushed, "I must \
give it up. "Why are we?" "Because,"]
she replied significantly, "we are few and
far between." He destroyed the similarity 1
almost instantly. i
"Shall I play this pretty German j
waltz for you ?" she asked, as she ran her
fairy fingers over the ivory keys. "No, j 1
thank you," he replied ; "play an Ameri- :
can air. I do not understand Gorman." 1
jjjjgisrdtanwus Reading, j
Bravery.?Let a child or woman fall!
overboard and a dozen men are ready to j 1
3pring after and save them. That is
bravery, but it is bravery born in impulse. 11
Let a human face appear at the window of J
a. burning building and a dozen men will f
risk their lives in the effort to extend help. ?
rhat is bravery, but it is bravery born of v
pity aud excitement. Let man but hear the o
:ry of woman in peril, and he will rush to d
rescue and deliver her at any cost. That is ^
bravery, but it is the bravery of honor and ?
ihivalry. Let man be surrounded by lv
wolves and all escape cut off and he will a
fight until pulled down. That is the brave- e
ry of despair. t
it is tne oattieneiu wnicn iesi? ;i umu ? ^
jourage. A regiment is in line on the edge J]
)f a wood. Half a mile away is another ?
wood. Between the two is a meadow bare [
ef the slighest shelter. The regiment is g
ordered to advance. As the line moves out a
into the clear sunlight every man will rea- t
son to himself: 1
"The enemy is posted in the opposite P
timber. Before we are half way over he ^
will open on us with shell. One battery }\
will cover our regiment front. This is my r
last day!" i
So each man reasons, but every face is
sternly set to a "front," and not a foot missis
step as the line pushes across the meadow.
The shells come, and dozens of men
ire blown to gory fragments, hut the line
moves on as before, and the living reason:
"The fire will presently change from
shell to grape and canister, and then I shall
certainly be hit!"
The prediction is verified. Gaps are
epened through the double line, but only to ?;
ne closed again. The regiment has lost its v
marching step, and its lines are no longer l
perfect, but the movement is still onward, t
md men reason : 8
"The infantry are in support of the bat- 0
tery. I have escaped shell and grape, but c
when we come under the fire of musketry
we shall be slaughtered!" I
There is no hanging back, no obliquing to
right or left, no other thought than to push s
ihead. The grape ceases, and lead takes f
the place of iron. The lines are further diserdered,
and the left wing has lost its
"front" by thirty feet, but the wave does
not stop. As it rolls forward men grip
their muskets tighter, their eyes flash, their 1
teeth shut hard, and they reason :
"In a minute more we shall be near f
enough. Then we shall charge them with ?
the bayonet. Then will be a hand-to-hand t
tight, and I surely must bekilled or wounded,
but let us at them?hurrah ! hurrah !"? o
New York Sun. -
Importance of Caring fortheTeeth s
Early.?The teeth are too often neglected 1
luring the first 10 or 12 years of a child's
life. The irregularity of the teeth so com- c
mom in adults is generally caused by the p
extraction of the child's temporary teeth
before the permanent ones were ready to r
take their places. The jaws, consequently v
contracted, and the teeth came through in ?
i crowded condition. v
The teeth are the hardest portions of the c
buman body, and yet they soon become use- r
less through decay. It can be safely esti- 1
mated that in a city of 50,000 people there 1
ire not 100 of the native inhabitants between
the ages of four and fourteen whose ?
;eeth have escaped decay, and if the decay n
vere to continue unchecked, most of the r
nhabitants would be toothless by the time
;hey were fifty. t
If the future men and women are to have
*ood teeth, the care of them must begin in
childhood. It is a mistake to have the v
:emporary teeth extracted as soon as they
iecay and cause pain. It is best to pre- t,
>erve the first teeth until the permanent
inesare ready to be erupted. To do this P
t is necessary to have filled the temporary ,
;eeth that show signs of decay. ?
The predisposing cause of decay is not ^
ully known. The structure and density of
i child's first teeth are dependent largely b
ipon the health of its mother. Some foods o
ich in phosphates, when partaken by the c
nother, are supposed to be conducive to
iense development and perfection of bone [j
n the child that is to be born. It is especi- 'i
illy important that children at an early r
ige should be taught to clean their teeth? f<
aught the use of the tooth-brush and its f
mportance. That the food we eat has r
much influence in the formation of our
;eeth is apparent in the results of the generil
use of oatmeal in Scotland, roast beef in
England, black bread in Germany and
macaroni in Italy. Each national fare I
jroduces marked characteristics in the for- [
nation of the teeth. I
The toothpick should be used as often as
bod is eaten. It should be thin and pliajle;
a goose quill makes the best. Even
sicking the teeth with pins is not as harmill
ns patino- a lemon and failing to clean
;he teeth afterward. Eating sugar will not |J
Rake any more inroad on the teeth than f|
:he same amount of apple. At least once a
i year the teeth should be examined by a a
lentist. Here, as elsewhere, the ounce of n
prevention is worth more than the pound of ti
jure.? W. II. Gilkson, D. I). S. v

A Remarkable Faith Cure.?A Hot b
Springs, (Ark.) letter of October 18th, says: *
The Methodist Church here was crowded ^
:o-day by people anxious to hear the partic- n
ilars of what is believed to be a miraculous c
jase of prayer cure. Dr. H. R. Withers,
pastor of the church, a very able minister,
in no wise given to fanaticism, has been ab>eut
for some weeks watching by the sick
3ed of his boy, who was very low with ty- <
phoid fever. In the course of his sermon ?
:o-(Iay, which had for its subject the inter- r?
mention of God in particular ways to accomplish
his ends, the pastor related his story.
The sick boy had sunk beneath four
weeks of illness. The family were told that '
the sick boy could live but little longer. *
The extremities were cold. The pulsation n
was 150 per minute, while the heart beat h
faintly. Iu the light of science recovery
was hopeless. <?
The old minister's faith in prayer was k
itrong. He hastily gathered several Christians
together, anointed the sick boy with
)il in their presence, and together they
prayed to Got! for the recovery of the dying J,'
boy. i ii
Soon the cold liinbs grew warm and the J'
iieart beat stronger. A little later the sick !!
aoy, who had been unconscious for two ?
weeks, opened his eyes and gazed about in
i rational manner. In less than two hours c
lie spoke to those around his bed and called
tor food, the first he had eaten for three
weeks. He is now nearly well.
Age of the Mounds.?In a Georgia ?
Bound two copper plates were found, upon
which were stamped the figures resembling
:he sculptures upon the Central American 1
"uins. The workmanship is vastly supe- j
ior to that displayed on the articles of pot- jf
:ery, stone and bone found in the mounds,
md their origin and purpose are not yet k
jxplainable. Aside from these plates nothng
has been found to indicate a connection j1
ictween the mound builders and the Aztecs j
>r wle Pueblos, while on the other hand
;here appear many reasons for not going i,
leyond the Cherokees and their fellow red o
iien of the Ohio and Mississippi valley I li

rhe purpose of the mounds still remains j ?
n some cases a mystery, but in others they j J]
ire known to have been made sometimes!
is foundations for Indian villages secure f,
rom the floods to which the lowlands were ! a
jeriodically subjected. G
A curious fact has come to light in j1
:he rnatser of telegraph wires. It appears ; j,
:hat Professor Morse proposed at the very j 0
jutstart to put the wires underground, and ! fi
:hat the stringing of the wires on poles was 'I
in afterthought. The first line of telegraph I 1
n this country was run in the year 1S4?, | r

to cut a trench into which the coil was un- (

EPITHELIOMA!
OR SKIN CANCER.
For seven years I suffered with a cnncer on my face. All
ie simnle remedies were nnnlied to alleviate the nain, hut
tie place continued to grow, finally extending into my nose,
otn which came a yellowish discharge very offensive in charcter.
It was also inflamed and annoyed me a great deal,
kbout eight months ago I was in Atlanta, at the house of a
riend, who so strongly recommended the use of Swill's Specific
liat I determined to make an effort to procure it. In this I
rns successful, and began its use. The influence ofthe medicine
t first was to somewhat aggravate the sore ; hut soon the Inflain
mtlon was allayed, and I began to improve after the first few
ottles. My general health has grently Improved. I am stronger,
nd am able to do any kind of work. The cancer on iny face
cgan to decrease and the ulcer to heal, until there is not a
estige of it left?only a little scar marks the plnee where It
ad been. I am ready to answer all questions relative to this
ure. Mrs. Joicik A. McDonald.
Atlanta, On.. August 11,1685.
I have had a cancer on my face for some years, extending
om one cheek bone across the nose to the other. It has given
le a great deal of pain, at times burning and Itching to such an
xtent that it was almost unbearable. I commenced using
wift's Specific in May, 1685, and having used eight bottles. It
as given the greatest relief by removing the inflammation and
storing my general health. W.Barnes.
Knoxville, Iowa, September 8,1885.
For many years I was a sufferer with cancer of the nose, and
aving been cured by the use of 8. 8. S., I feel constrnined by a
siise of duty to suffering humanity to make this statement of
>y ease. With the fourteenth bottle the cancer began to heal
ipidly and soon disappeared, and for several months there has
een no appearance of a sore of any kind on my nose or face,
either is my nose at all tender to the touch. I have
tken about two dozen bottles of 8. S. 8., and am soundly
ured, and I know that 8. 8. S. effected the cure after every
nown remedy was tried and failed. Robert Smedlkt.
Fort Gaines, Gn., May 1, 1885.
I had heard of the wonderful cures of Swift's Specific, and
ssolved to try it. I commenced taking it in April, 1884. My
enernl health was much improved, yet the cancer which was
i my breast continued to grow slowly but surely. I felt that I
iiist either have it cut or die. But it commenced discharging
uantities of almost black, thick blood. Is continued henling
round the edges until February, when it was entirely healed up
ml well. Bktst Wood.

Swift's Specific is entirely vegetable, and seems to cure
ancers by forcing out the impurities from the blood.

The NEW HOWE is a new machine throughout,
differing in every point from the machines F
heretofore manufactured by the company. The N
needle is self-setting. It has the most room un- pi
der the arm; the perfect Howe stitch; no holes cc
to thread, except the needle; the easiest shuttle lo
to thread ; the most perfect take up ; the loose cc
balance-wheel; the largest bobbin ; absolutely
no vibration; the most perfect tension. It is
the lightest running; noiseless, and the most ar
pleasing in appearance.
Prices within the reach of all. Call and get a
descriptive circular, and see the machine, which Bi
is always on exhibition at my Photographic in
Gallery.
