^tumorous ?tpartmfnt. j Spontaneous Combustion.?Some one has estimated that the time thrown away . in this world in courting the girl you want to marry, and who is ready to marry you, would build all the railroads and bridges and tunnels and factories and pnblic buildings. The white race should take a lesson in this from the colored people. The other day a likely young colored man stood at a gate in Birmingham, Alabama. A likely young colored woman came along with a dog. "Hi, dar!" he called, "but mebbe you wan't to sell dat dog?" "No, sah." "Mebbe your name is Lucinda ?" Sfci ? "Yes, sah." "I alters dote on dat name. I'ze called Gawge." "Dat's pleasin'." "I'ze lookin', you know?" "Y-yes." "Got money saved up, an' a stiddy job ahead. Shall I speak to de old man ?"# "He's in Orleans." "Den I'll see de old woman." "She's dead." "Well, den, I'll ax you to be my wife right now." "You's foolin'." ^ "'Deed, no." "Hain't got nobody else?" "Nobody, 'tall." "Reckon we'll hitch?" "'Cose we will?can't help it." "Wall, den, I'll say yes, an' to-night you come down to Mrs. Grumley's kitchen an' we'll sot deday an' sorter git acquainted." "Lucinda, I?" "Go 'long Gawge! Ize dun sed yes, an' dat's 'nuff. Come airly." "So long,'Cinda!" I "By-by, Gawge!" He Stood the Test.?Four boys seated 0 on a line fence dividing two houses attracted the attention of a pedestrian recently, and he halted and asked what they were looking at. "New family moving in there to-day," replied one. "Well, what of it?" "They've got a boy about as big as us." "Well, what of that?" "Nothing, we are only trying him." At that moment the new boy appeared on the grass about twenty feet away. One of ? the boys on the fence made up a face at him. He promptly responded. Then another ooy tnrew a sione at nun. ne nuriea it back. "Say, I'll lick you!" called the biggest boy. "You can't do it!" The fpur boys make as if they would jump over the fence, but the new boy stood firm. "I'll dare you up here!" "I'll dare you down here!" "He's all right?he's game," said the big bov to the pedestrian. "If he was a coward we were going to lick him, but now we'll go over and let him have a whiff on our cigar stub." Told it Wrong?A joke is a mystery to some people, says the Lewiston, (Me.,) Journal. In a certain court-room in this State once on a time the proceedings were delayed by the failure of a witness named Sarah Money to arrive. After waiting a long time for Sarah the court concluded to wait no longer, and wishing to crack his little joke, remarked: "This court will adjourn without Sarah-Mony." Everybody laughed except one man, who sat in solemn meditation for five minutes, and then burst into a hearty guffaw, exclaiming: "I see it! I see it!" When he went home he tried to tell the joke to his wife. "There was a witness named Mary-Money who didn't come," said he, "ana so the court said: 'we'll adjourn without Mary-Money.' " "I don't see any point to that," said his wife. "I know it," said he; "I didn't at first: but you will in about five minutes."

Tell the boys what prompted you to do such an honorable act, when you might have kept it for yourself." "Please, sir, 'cause it was a counterfeit," replied John. He Gave Notice of His Intention.?

A waiter brought out , some shrimps, which the Georgian stowed away as best he could.

Interviewing the President.?Joa quin Miller writes to the Chicago Timeti President Cleveland is a plain man, almos homely. He never could have been gooc looking at best, and now that he is very bald and no longer young there is no beauty of form or face to speak of. Of course he i a different figure and form to that of Lin coin; but 1 should say that in his way he is as plain as ever Mr. Lincoln was in hi way and fully as awkward. He is a shor man comparatively and his hands are sim ply huge. The complexion of his face i coarse and sallow. But his eye is keei and clear. He does not stare at you, bu he takes you in at a glance with suddei precision, and you feel that he seesthrougl you and understands you in that one glanc< from your boot-solo^ up to the last strangling hair on the top of your head. He has t tremendously strong face ; it is simply pow erful. It is a face that says imperiously and instantly, "No foolishness," and yoi feel as if vou want to go away from befon it. Here is my first interview, which J dotted down a few minutes after: "Mr President, I?I?I want ('apt. Hoxie to b< returned to Washington so as to complet< our water-works." "Capt. Hoxie," answered the Presiden instantly, "is subject to the orders ot th< Secretary of War," and lie looked at me as if to say, "And you know it." Yes, I knev I had come to the wrong place and was bor ing the President and was bothering him foi nothing, much as I had the matter at heart, So I gave up that subject and started or another equally as important. "Mr. President, one thing more; I heai you are going to remove Commissions Edmunds, the head of our commissioner! for Washington, and I?I?" The President looked hard at me and saic promptly: "You have heard that?'- "Well I have not heard of it, and as I will hav< to hear of it before he is removed you car rest easy on that score for the present." By this time I felt that 1 had not th< slightest business with the President anc fell in with the band of shorn sheep tha was passing on and out of the corral bj another door. I doubt if any of us fel quite as big as when we went in. I had on< conviction, however, lodged very solidly in my mind, and it was to the effect tha from the concise and swift way in which hi disposed of me and those who went in wit! me there is not going to be much foolish ness about the White House while he ii there. This man Grover Cleveland?ant he gi^es you the impression that he does no care whether or no?is President of everj inch of these United States. And I venturi to write it down as one of my very fev nrnnhApips that, ho will be President o these United States for seven years and t quarter to come. Louis Riel.?The hanging of Louis Ri< was a mistake, and the British authorise; in Canada will soon discover it to be such Riel was not an innocent man, and his re hellion, however justified by intolerable wrong and injustice, had no hope of^uccess Besides, he had committed a similar crime before and received pardon, or at least beer paid to abscond. There was nothing heroie about him, except his death. Although very much of a crank, and something of a hallucinated dreamer, heat least died with dignity, and left the world in sublime contrast to Guiteau. Because the Metis people have suffered wrongand injustice at the hands of the Canadian authorities, and because Riel, theii chosen leader, was something of a monomaniac, and because his trial was irregulai or illegal, and because the appeal for mercy came from so many respectable sources, the f)risoner should either have been sent to a unatic asylum or condemned to life-long incarceration. This execution has made him something of a martyr, and his memory may be as potent in freeing Canada from British domination as John Brown's was in precipitating civil war in the United States and changing the whole industrial fabric of the Union. The English rulers of Canada may have been impressed with the idea that the execution of this strange man would strike terror to the hostile elements of that Province, but they recKonea loonsniy. ine smoKe that rose from the burning effigy of Sir John McDonald blackened the statue ol Queen Victoria, as if to tipify that the blood of Kiel should rise from the ground and take the shape of vengeance that may mean the eventual end of British rule in the Dominion.?Augusta Chronicle. Our Postal Service.?The report oi First Assistant Postmaster General Stevenson shows that during the last fiscal year there was established 2,121 new postoffices, a decrease of 1,293 from the previous year. There are 51,252 postoffices in the country, 2,233 of which are filled by the President and 49,019 by the Postmaster-General. During the year 11,203 appointments were made, a decrease of 2,038 from the previous year. The number of Presidential offices increased 90. The total number of money order offices is 6,992, an increase of 749. During the year 412 postmasters died. The number of free delivery offices is 178, an increase of 19. The entire cost of that service was $3,985,952. The total postage on local matters amounted to $5,280,723, an increase of $503,238, and over the entire cost of the service of $1,294,770. The number of mail letters delivered was 404,990,842, an increase of 15.50 per cent.; of postal cards, 104,742,598, an increase of 7.51 per cent.; of local letters, 142,402,578, an increase of 17.08 per cent.; of registered letters 3,187,965, an increase of 3.03 per cent.; of newspapers 256,054,002, an increase of 10 per cent. The number of letters collected was 409,858,875, Ml increase of 13.44 per cent.; postal cards 140,030,730, an increase of 8.13 per cent., md newspapers 83,432,073; an increase of 18.38 per cent. The aggregate compensation paid to postmasters is $49,215,830.00 per annum, and $4,873,853 is paid for clerk hire. An appropriation of $35,000 for furniture and safes for postoffices is recommended. The estimates for the next fiscal year aggregate $9,578,000. Provision for the payment of the rent of third class postoffices should be made, and also for clerk hire in money order offices. Drcukask ok Movv.v Ordk.rs.?Xiiner intendent MacDonald, Chief of the Money Order Division of the Postoffice Department, in his forthcoming annual report, says: "Perhaps one of the best indications of the stringency and general business depression of the times is the decrease in the amount of money transmitted by means of money orders during the past year. The decrease in the amount of international money orders issued points to the conclusion that foreign born workmen, who habitually remit a portion ot their surplus earnings to needy relatives in their native country have found it more difficult of late to accumulate savings. The Superintendent refrains from renewing the recommendation made last year looking to the reduction of fees on domestic money orders for the reason that domestic revenues have decreased to a degree that would make it inexpedient. He does, however, recommend the reduction of fees on foreign orders from 1A per cent, as at present to 1 per cent. In conclusion the Superintendent gives at some length the reason for the renewal of the recommendation made in his preceding report that postal notes be made payable to bearer upon receipt at any post office." Sons of Great Men.?A brother of \ ice-i'resiaent Wilson is a guide in the bureau of engraving and printing at $1 50 a day, and President Cleveland has been asked to give him something better. It is curious how the same blood that produces greatness in one member of the family produces mediocrity or worse in another. I know of a Senator's brother who is glad to hold a laborer's place about the Senate Chamber, and I can count my fingers full of the sons of Senators, generals and Presidents who loaf around Washington disgracing the tracks their fathers honored. The son of one of the most noted of the lawyers of Washington, a generation ago, will now be glad of an otter of a drink at a second class bar, and there is a son of a great Senator and formerly a Minister tc England, whom you may see any nighl about Willard's hotel, who is good foi nothing but loafing. I know a President's son who asked for a drink the other da> of the livery stable keeper who used to hire out to him four in hands while his fathei was in the White House, and there are working in the departments here the sons of the best men the country has produced.? Washington Letter. Increase of Illicit Distilling.?The t Commissioners of Internal Kevenue contin1 ue to receive advices of the increase of illic; it distilling and forcible resistance to law in 7 the States of Georgia and Tennessee. The s peculiar feature of the matter is that the - trouble now originates in counties which 7 have heretofore been exempt from such diss turbances. In Georgia, for instance, illicit t stills have recently been captured and des troyed in the lumber region, where these s practices were not heretofore known. An 1 impression seems to have been spread about t that with the change of administration i there would come a relaxation in the eni forcement of the revenue laws, and the ? discovery, now made that the officers apj pointed by President Cleveland are vigilant i in seeing that the laws are obeyed, has - brought about turbulence, which it will re i quire a considerable display of force and a i large expenditure of money to repress. [ Machine-Made Boxes.?"About ten . years ago," said the old man "there was no 3 such thing as a machine-made box. Nowa3 days, in some trades, there is no such thing as a hand-made box. Formerly the knockt ing together of small boxes for soap, oil, etc., i was a trade by itself, at which nearly 500 5 men in this city made fair wages. The ; wood was cut out by machinery, and the . workmen nailed the pieces together, r "About 1874 some man improved consid, erably upon a machine, which hammered i in at one blow all the nails on one side of a box. Since then improvement has follow ed improvement, until now you pour a keg r of nails in at the top of the machine, and a 5 hoy feeds the wood in at the bottom. All the boy does is to put in the right pieces 1 and in proper order, the machine doing the , rest. The machine works so well and so j fast that the men have been driven out of i the business by boys, the price for such work having dwindled until no man can 3 support himself at it." 1 -*+? t. Hereditary Transmission.?Mr. Franl r cis Yalton, at the recent meeting ol the t British Association for the Advancement of 3 Science, delivered an address in which he 7 discussed the conditions of stability and t instability of "types" with reference to 3 the existence of this same law which govi ems hereditary transmission. Nature, says - Mr. Yalton, is always trying experiments 3 and producing new types, some useful, othl ers useless in human beings. When a child t develops some peculiarity which is profltai ble and agreeable, it is the duty of tne par3 ents to "domicile and perpetuate it." Na; ture's little experiments should be aided by f our intelligence; valuable forms of family i type should be conserved, and the conditions favoring the perpetuation should be established. A race of men and women 3 may thus be eventually evolved as supei riorto the present as the developed gray. hound is to the primal dog.?Chicago News. ; Sands of Egypt.?More than 30,000 fragmentsof ancient records have been dug j up from the sands of Egypt, where they I have rested embalmed during nine centu. ries, not very much the worse for their in[ terment. The history of these venerable t documents is remarkable. Professor Karabacek supposes that they must at one time . have formed part of the public archives of El Fayoum, and that the bulk of these [ archives perished in a great conflagration, , such as destroyed the great library at Alex. andria. Corn and Cold.?On the northeast shor. es of Asia, corn cannot be cultivated at 50 , degrees north latitude, although in the in[ terior it matures as far north as 62 degrees. . On the eastern shores of America the gorthern limits of its growth is 50 degrees, and on the western shore it reaches about , 57 degrees, while in the intermediate country it is known to grow as far north as 65 i degrees.

It was also inflamed and annoyed me n great deal. ' About eight months ago I was in Atlanta, at the house of a friend, who so strongly recommended tne use 01 switrs spccinc that I determined to make nil effort to procure it. in this I wns successful, and began its use. The influence of the medicine ! at first was to somewhat aggravate the sore ; hut soon the Inflam I niation was allayed, and I began to improve after the first few bottles. My general lienltli has greatly improved. I am stronger, and am able to do any kind of work.

It lias given me a great deal of pain, at times burning and itching to such an extent that it was almost unbearable. I commenced using ' Swift's Specific in May, 188a, and having used eight bottles, it ; lias given the greatest relief by removing the inflammation and 1 restoring my general health. W. Barnes, j Knoxville, Iowa, September 8,188a. For many years I was a sufferer witli cancer of the nose, and , having been cured by the use of S. S. S., I feel constrained by a sense of duty to suffering humanity to make tills statement of my case. With the fourteenth bottle the cancer began to heal rapidly and soon disappeared, and for several months there lias been no appearance of n sore of any kind on iny nose or face, neither is my nose at all tender to the touch. I have taken about two dozen bottles of S. S. S., nnd am soundly cured, nnd I know that S. S. S. effected the cure after every known remedy wns tried and failed. Koiiert Smedley. Fort Gullies, Ga., Mny 1, 1885. I had heard of the wonderful cures of Swift's Specific, and resolved to try it. I commenced taking it in April, 188-1. My general health was much improved, yet the cancer which was in my breast continued to grow slowly but surely. I felt that I must either have it cut or die. But it commenced discharging quantities of almost black, thick blond. Is continued healing around the edges until February, when it was entirely hen led up and well. * Betsy Wood.
