A tender-hearted North Carolina judge of "ye olden time," seeing that the evi- ; dence was strongly against a young fellow 1 who was being tried before him for his life, and dreading to pronounce the sen- ( tence which he felt to be inevitable, left the , court-room under some pretext, to which. , he presently returned fortified with several strong drinks. It chanced that the judge took more than 1 he intended of the intoxicating beverage, ! and when the jury (greatly to the surprise of every one) brought in a verdict of "Not - guilty f" he was slumbering heavily upon the bench, and had to be aroused in order to hear the decision. i With his mind still full of the dread AVhich had overwhelmed him, and utterly unable, in the bewildered state of his 1 brain, to take in the altered condition of | AM fol Iaut QIAWIV ' OilOUO) tliu V1U 1VUVTT utv l( v* xv?vv* himself: "Jones," he said, solemnly, speaking in the nasal tone peculiar to him, and brushing an imaginary insect from 1 his nose, as was his custom when under the influence of strong feeling, "it now becomes my painful duty?" "Your Honor?" putin one of the jury. "I beg, Mr. Robinson," replied the judge, "that you will not interrupt me. Mr. Jones," he continued, turning to the prisoner, "I knew your father, sir, an eminently respectable and respected citizen, who little thought that his son would come to the disgraceful end which is to be yours, for you are to be hanged by the neck, sir?" "Your Honor," Robinson said again, almost imploringly, "permit me to explain?" "Mr. Robinson," replied the judge, "I must insist that you do not interrupt me again" (striking at the imaginary fly) "while I am performing the most solemn duty, sir, that belongs to my office. Mr. Jones" (turning again to the prisoner), "I know, sir, that this sentence, which I feel constrained to pronounce, is breaking the heart of your poor old mother there," "pointing to the wife of the murdered man2 who, sitting somewhat apart, was looking daggers at the jury), "and, sir, bringing her gray hairs in sorrow to the grave. For you are to be hanged, sirto be?" "S.," broke in Robinson, unable to contain himself any longer, and dropping the judicial title in his desperation; "you are making a fool of yourself. The jury has brought in a verdict of "Not guilty!'" The Wrong Days.?Kenneth, aged six, and Phillip, his brother, two years older, asked permission of their mother to go out for a little walk on Sunday afternoon. "Yes, you may go," she said, "if you will not forget that it is Sunday, and will walk quietly, as you should." The hoys went out, and returned soon. "O mamma," said Kenneth, running to his mother, "Phillips didn't do at all as you said. He acted just like Monday and Tuesday all the time." ?

A sleek black cat leaped from the top ol one of the ten-pounders on the United States corvette Kearsage and scampered below in answer to the call of a grizzled old sailor. "Jim" is the ship's pet. Every man-ofwar has its pet, and for two years a big black cat has filled the place in the affections of the sailors on the Kearsage. Jim went to South America with the ship. "That cat," said Capt. Horace Elmer before the ship left the dock, "will do more to keep the men contented than anything I can do. The mere fact that Jim, as the men call him, is given permission to have the run of the ship delights the men. They have trained him, and during leisure moments they watch his antics with pleasure." rrl- ? " ? rtviticor Vnrlrtmvn is a Alltr jiCt UU UlVs Vt UA0V1 * ? .. monkey. He is a frisky youngster and an expert climber. He can get to the top of the mainmast in less than twenty seconds if he is feeling firstrate. The monkey has been trained to play tricks on the crew. He has a funny way of tickling the ear of a sleeping sailor with the end of his tail. If anyone loses a plug of tobacco it can generally be found hidden in the rigging. When the hiding place is discovered the monkey breaks out into a chatter that shows how he appreciates the fun. A very fat rattlesnake, about four feet long and as lazy as an alligator, used to be the pet on the United States survey steamer Blake. The snake was called Wrig, and it spent most of its time in the engine room. When Jacob Harsen was assistant engineer, the snake used to watch his movements with great interest, and frequently it would follow Harsen as he moved from one part of the shij) to another. Wrig got caught in the machinery some time ago and was bruised so badly that he died. The body was dropped overboard with mock ceremony. Billy, the goat, was the pet of the Galena for nearly two years. During that period he never left the ship. When the ship was in port the sailors would take turns getting grass and clover for the goat, and they always got a goodly supply ahead when it was known that the ship would soon sail. Some time ago, through the strategy of certain members of the crew who had been detailed to the Baltimore, Dilly was smuggled away from the Galena and to the Baltimore. A pair of white rats have the run of the Monongahela. They have been aboard ship for nearly a year. For some reason the smaller of the two rats has stood in wholesome fear of Lieutenant Commander Gibson. Whenever the officer appeared the rat would crouch in a dark corner in terror. Both of the rats were on very friendly terms with Lieutenant Dix Bolles. "Vnn rwio-ht bpp the rata run a race on a vwa"v vv ,,vw ? the main deck," said an old sailor. "We get them in trim for a race by offering them a small piece of cheese, and then talcing a larger piece forward. Two of the boys hold the rats, and at the word go they get under way and go scampering down. The first rat to reach the cheese gets it." A game cock was the pet of the boys on the Charleston until recently. It was trained to crow every time the ship's bell struck, and it did it most lustily. The Enterprise has a black cat aboard. It is the best fighter of any cat in the service, so the trainer says. There is a parrot on the Chicago that can rattle off the vernacular of the sailor-man without making a break. He shouts, "Go b'low!" whenever the sky is overcast and the sea heavy. Snatches from "Pinafore" have been picked up by the bird, and he can sing three lines of the "Cumberland's Crew."?[New York Morning Journal. POOR GUESS WORK. Down town on a side street there is a small barber shop. In it is a young barber. He is an assistant and his name is Guess. He has been employed there only a few days, but he came very near losing his job on account of his name, too. The proprietor of the shop was in when the young man applied for work. He liked his appearance, was satisfied with the amount of pay he was to receive, and engaged him. "What is your name?" inquired the boss. "Guess," was the reply. "I'm a poor hand at guessing names," replied the boss, but still he began trying. "Well, he said, "perhaps it may be Schmidt." "No," said the young man quietly, but none the less deliberately, "Guess." "Lutz," ventured the doss. "No," responded the young man, with a smile, "Guess." "Huber," retured the boss, desperately. The young man shook his head, and again replied with emphasis, "Guess." Then the boss showed signs of fatigue and anger. "See nere young fellow, if you can't answer a civil question, I think you had better look elsewhere for a job. Now, sir, I am in no humor for trifling; what is your name ?" "George Guess." Now it happened that the boss's first name was George, and naturally he thought the young man was still amusing himsell in a most unusual fashion. "Say," he roared, in deep base tones, "this has gone far enough. If you will not tell me your name you'll have to get out, that's all there is to it." "I have told you several times that my name is Guess, and also declared to you that my first name was George. If that doesn't satisfy you, I'm afraid nothing ever will." Then the boss penetrated the mystery, and made ample apologies, and Mr. Guess was duly assigned to a chair.?[N. Y. Star. A Good Custom Dying Out.?The excellent custom of having the children and young people of our church commit portions of Scripture and hymns to memory, seems to have utterly died out. It is true they are asked for the golden text at Sabbath school, but even that is rarely ever thoroughly committed. It is more often read from the lesson paper. Some people discourage the practice, claiming that the ?u:i,i 1,1 ?n?,i il CU11U &UUUIU 11KJI uc lllicu niVU nuav 11 cannot understand and digest, etc. This is certainly a mistake. We fully believe the former custom of having children commit portions of the Bible, and choice hymns of the church, to be wholesome mental discipline, as well as spiritually profitable. The youthful mind, stored with divine truth so tersely expressed in the English Bible, has a store house of comfort to draw from in time of need. These verses are the weapons of the Holy Spirit to combat Satan. Should misfortune or sickness overtake an individual whose mind is stored with this precious truth, how comforting to have such to meditate upon, when perhaps his strength will not allow a friend to read to him! A man is frequently in situations where he has no reading, no one to converse with, nothing but his own thoughts. How happy if, like David, he can have the truth of God to meditate upon in the watches of the night.?[New York Evangelist. 8^s It costs money to die in France.

In this country the cost of embalming is from twenty-five to fifty dollars, but over there they pretend to understand processes approaching in effectiveness those of the ancient Egytians.

Over production, poor markets : and low prices, until they feel they are on the verge of financial ruin. A farmer who seemed to feel no effect of . the symptoms of financial disease, when asked why he did not, replied, "I have always something to sell; I never take an inferior article to market; I always give good weight and good measure," consequently I always find a ready market at paying prices for my produce." Now this farmer Is doing no more than you or I can do if we will put the same vim and amount of brains in our business that he does. There is great advantage to the farmer to have something to sell at all times. The reader may scoff the idea, but I believe that little "dribs" have ruined more farmers than great things. The farmer can see readily the danger of great debts, but does 11A+ nntioo liftlo nnou T L'nnW tn llttVe something for market of choice quality, requires care and forethought; really, it requires more forethought than labor. I have watched the markets, and have seen produce of choice quality find a ready sale, when it was entirely glutted with produce of common quality. But some men are too proud to market small articles of produce ; some have not time, they think, while others are too indolent and neglectful of business. Most every farmer has to visit his town once a week to purchase something for his family. Many rather keep an account at the store than to be troubled with small markets. I know a man who is making farming pay, who always carries something to sell every time he goes to town. On publiJHlays he takes a nice bucket of butter on one arm and a basket of eggs on the other, which will pay for his iamily needs that day. His more aristocratic neighbor goes too, but is too proud to carry anything to sell, therefore he is compelled to pay cash or go on "tick." Another goes, but has no time to take anything to sell, but goes and spends the day buying his family supplies on credit. Both these men lost the day as well as the first one did, but returned home two or three dollars deeper in debt, and at the end of the year, on delivering their cotton, are greatly surprised to find their accounts nearly equal or more than their cotton brought them, while the first man has nearly as much cotton as they, but his little markets paid his way, and, therefore, his cotton money goes into his pocket, to meet losses and soften hard times. The farmer could and should buy by barter almost entirely; the little crops and resources of the farm should be so diversified that there may be something to sell each week, enough at least to purchase the little necessaries of family consumption.^ There are but few farmers that do not keep a few cows and farm fowls, that, if they are anyways cared for, will give a surplus of butter and eggs. If there is no market for milk it can be given to pigs, which can be brought into market at paying figures. A good poultry yard well-cared for will turn out eggs to sell all the time, with an occasional broiler, and a few turkeys for thanksgiving and for Christmas holidays. A good garden will always produce semething for market. A good orchard of well selected fruit will, a good portion of the time, produce something, either green or 1 dried, for market. If the farmer will provide these things, his wife will, and beglad of the chance, nave it in marketable shape every time you want to go to town. In fa'ct, I believe it would be well for the farmer to market at least twice a week, unless he lives too far, whether his family need supplies or not. He can thus gain a surplus for a "rainy day." Every farmer ought to try to bring his farm to produce some article outside of the staple crops, and so instead of always going in debt, pay as he goes, he would have no need of complaint, pr feel a depression and hard times.?[Thos. Baird, in Southern Cultivator. WAKPIXOOr WOUD. As lumber is now sawn, every board but one will warp and curl up in the process of seasoning. The reason for this is plain. If the boards be sawn from the side of a log, the grain rings of the wood lie in circles, which have a greater length on one than upon the other side of the board. A boatd cut from the very centre of a log lias grain circles of equal length upon each side, and will lie perfectly flat when seasoned. "When selecting the lumber for a tool chest, or some other fine job, pick out boards which show that they came as near as possible from the centre of the log. A method is in use which compensates for this tendency to curl in seasoning. This is known as quarter sawing, and quartered oak, of which so much is said at present, is sawn by this process. It consists in cutting out boards radially from the centre of the.outside of the log. Suppose a log is split into four pieces, each > of these pieces is sawn diagonally, so that the grain rings run through instead of the circles running into, part way through and out upon the same side of the board. Quarter sawn lumber will not warp in nnUimK ii.ill Jf violfl ur? rnnrlilv to UI J'Hig, licmici nui iv j ivi? w - ? ^ ? changes of weather. It has the disadvantage of being more expensive, as in sawing ; each quarter a narrow board is first taken i off, then one a little wider. The boards " increase in width until the middle of the quarter is reached, making the widest , board equal to half the diameter of the 1 tree. The narrow boards may be glued < up into wide strips, but that shows considerable sap, and they cannot be used in some kinds of work, i To prove that the circles of sap rings i cause curling during the seasoning pro; cess, it is only necessary to take such curled boards and wet the concave side, or apply heat to the convex side. If each or > both be done, the boards will straighten out forthwith. This method is often taken advantage of by carpenters in working twisted or warped boards. The sea[ soiling process is also controlled by fre quently turning boards over so that each side may receive just enough heat and air > to keep the boards fiat.?[Wood Worker.

You cannot shovel darkness out of a room, but you can drive out the darkness by letting in the light. So, that in that hour of extremest anguish, when the hand of death has been laid upon the head of the family, you cannot alleviate the suffering of the wife and of the children; but i you can avert the awful agony of despair as to i "the future, when you come to that widowed wife and that desolate hearthstone with the contributious from the policy of life insurance, which at least enables that widowed wife to know that for the few years of the future, by that contribution, she can keep under her own watchful and motherly, eye the little children God has given to her, until they grow up to voars when they can go out into the arena of life and tight life's battles for themselves. I ?*? The shrewdest business men aro among the warmest ad vocates of pu re life insurance, while those who rail against it are generally persons who are physically unable to obtain insurance, or too selfish to pay for what they themselves cannot enjoy ; or as they frequently express it, "are adverse to play in a game where they have to die to win." The Legion of Honor is as solid as rock, and furnishes insurance at actual cost. It meets its obligations with promptness. Since its organization in 187S it has paid about 317,250,000 to the widows anu orpnans 01 ueceasou mombeia. Think of the vast amount of good that has been accomplished by thi* large sum of money. Doubtless in thousands of cases actual sutfering^ias been prevented. A policy in the American Legion of Honor is the cheapest and safest mode of making provision for one's family. Death comes to the cottage and the palace; .claiming all times and ail seasons as his own ; striking down the strong man and the weak, and tho wise man will make provision for the coming of tLat certain but unwelcome visitor. Ho will insure. & a You should have insurance and you can get O (!.? nloau at U In w rnto hv hflenmini? - a member of tbo Legion of Honor. If you desire to investigate its plan of doing business, Mr. A. W. Ingold, the secretary of the Yorkville Council, will be pleased to furnish you with any desired information.
