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."
A Plain Statement of Facts.?"Yes,
boys," said the teacher, "honesty is the best
policy. It will surely bring its reward; it
will give you a clean conscience, and will
prove a blessing throughout your whole life.

stand up. (John Smith rises). "Now, John,
when I was coming to school this morning,
I happened to drop a silver quarter out of
my pocket, without theslightest knowledge
of the fact, and you, like an honest and noble
boy, returned it to me. 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.?
Smith?Brown, the auctioneer, has sudden- I
ly disappeared.
Jones?That so? I
S.?Yes. Went off three days ago and
hasn't been seen since. Didn't say a word
to anybody about going away.
J.?Oh, yes, he did. I heard him myself
say that he was going. - .
8.?You did? When?
J.?Four or five days ago. I was at an
auction where he was selling goods and I
heard him tell everybody that he was "just
a?going?going?"
But Smith was gone.?Boston Courier. \
Where He Drew the Line.?They tell 1
a good story on a South Georgian statesman,
who went to Charleston in the old days and 1
stopped at a hotel. A waiter brought out ,
some shrimps, which the Georgian stowed
away as best he could. In a moment the
waiter reappeared with a stand of celery. |
"No," said the Georgian, shaking his '
head solemnly, ".I have tried your bugs and
don't like them," and you can bet yer life I
don't want none er your grass."?Atlanta

fc&~ "Joe, you remember Bob Fenton, j
don't you ?"
"Yes. He's got a truck patch in New

"Well while watching his melon patch
the other night another fellow ran away '

"Is that so? How I envy him."
"The other fellow?"
"No; Bob Fenton. I've a mind to take j
to raising melons myself."
His Usual Luck.?The price of real es- '
tate was under discussion at the club, when ,
one gentleman remarked:
"Jones, old boy, I know where you can '
buy iust the nicest little home, splendid ;
cottage, grand fruit trees, and all that, for a \
song."
"Just my luck," said Jones, "I can't sing '
a note."?Hartford Post. ;
l^-Stretchit was telling Gawley about an
alligator he saw in Florida. "That alligator j1
measured sixty-three feet and five inches j!
from the end of hi3 nose to the tip of his

An allie^tor sixty-three feet and five inches 1
long. Does that not astonish you?" "No," '
said Gawley, quietly; "I'm a liar myself."

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."

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.

EPITHELIOMA!
OR SKIN CANCER.
S For seven years I su tiered with a cancer on my lacc. All
l tin; simple remedies were applied to alleviate the pain, lint
the place continued to grow, finally extending into my nose,
from which came a yellowish discharge ver? offensive in char- '
ncter. 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. The cancer on my face 1
began to decrease and the ulcer to heal, until there is not a
vestige of it left?only n little scar marks the place where it |
had been. I am ready to answer all questions relative to this (
cure. Mas. Jntcte A. McDonald.
Atlanta, Ga.. August 11, 1885.
I have had a cancer on my face for some years, extending
from one cheek bone across the nose to the other. 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.

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