AN ECCENTRIC GIRL.
On a rapid little stream in an upper
county of Arkansaw, is situated Ashbu?
ry .Mills. The surrounding country i9
strangely like some old picture you nave
seen, and the mill, with its tall gables
and great wheel, standing out in courage?
ous, not to say bold, relief, is so conven?
tional," and in such tuneful keeping with
old mills you have read about, that in
passing along the winding road, you
would stop more than once to look at so
quaint a grouping of objects. Why the
place was called Ashbury Mills, and why
mills at all, since there-is only one, is
something which none ol the neighbors
and certainly no grammarian can ex?
plain. Old Tobe Potter owns the mills
?we shall conform to the neighborhood
custom and use the plural?and so far as
any one knows, nobody named Ashbury
has ever been in the least identified with
the institution, and in fact, when old
Tobe is asked concerning the origin of
the name, he hesitates in characteristic
perplexity and replies "Blame 'fi know."
Tobe's daughter, Gralda, was the hand
Eomest girl irr the entire country. She
was handsome^ not because she tried to
be so, but because she couldn't help it.
When the old man became afflicted with
corpulency and laziness, mainly the lat?
ter, Gralda took charge of the mills.
She was a thorough business girl, and
was so lenient to customers that once
when Alf Galluns complained that she
handled the toll measure with a reckless?
ness leaning a trifle too much in favor of
the mills, she-politely told the old fellow
that if he did not like" the methods she
had adopted ... he; administration, he
could take his favors to some other place.
Nearly every young man in the country
was in love with the girl, but the songs
of their wooing, were hot music to her.
She often declared that she did not in?
tend to marry, and many an injured
heart, beating under home-made linsey
shirts, believed the terrible declaration.
Simon Webliforce, a good-looking young
fellow and the acknowledged wit of the
community, did not escape the thrall
dorn of Gralda's power. She had smiled
at him, he though t. What more could
he ask of a girl to whom he had n'ot
made known his feelings ? He finished
laying by corn one evening in June, and,
v.fter shaving himself and brushing up
his clothes, a suit of .extra warp jeans
. that he had not worn since the last "pro?
tracted meetinV' he mounted his high
headed horse, the one he "swapped from"
- Nath Patterson, and went over to the
mills. He found Gralda, dressed in a
kind of a meal-bag costume, high in the
neck and loDg in the sleeves, attending
to her duties. Old Tobe, her father, sat
in an easy chair, fishing from the back
dOOr. * *t? 5 i s ?'.?-: -v; ?
"How-aro^yott, Srmon ?" said the girl.
"JnBt in-time to help me up with this
sack."'
"Al'era in time when you are handlin'
anything good to eat," replied the wit of
the community. ;
"Yes," said the old man,, baiting his
hook, "an' you are all'us aroun' when
the bus'ness of put tin' it away is goin'
on."
Then they all laughed, and the girl,
Simon thought, smiled at him.
? "Miss Gralda, if you ain't ^ery busy,
I'd like to talk to you over here by the
window."
The girl brushed the meal from her
hands and followed Simon to the win?
dow."
' "I laid by co'ri to-day."
"Did you?"
"Yes, an' the bottom fiel', pap 'lows,
will knock, the spots offen any piece o'
co'n in this country."
"Tour father generally knows what he
is talking about."
"Don't he, though? What else do
you reckin he said ? 'Simon,' says he,
'al? that co'n's your'n.' That's what he
said. Now, thar ain't nuthio' stingy
'bout me, an', when pap tole me that, I
'lowed to myself, banged ef I don't git
somebody to sheer all this here extra va
gantness, an' now, without further at
temptiu' to thrash ?le Satan 'round the
stump, I want you to be my wife. Don't
say no, fur I'd do as much fur you any
time. You couldn't ask no favor o' mo I'
wouldn't grant immegiately."
; "I'd like to accommodate you," the
girl replied, "but I've decided never to
marry unless I can find a man that I can
love."
"You don't mean to say that you don't
love me?"
VTfeSt's what I mean."
^ ^'He's a sucker!" exclaimed the old
man, reaching from the door.
? "I'm no more o' a sucker than you
air," angrily vociferated Simon.
"Who called you a sucker?"
"You did."
"Didn't. Was a talkiu' 'bout this fish,
but ef you ain't got no mo' sense than to
think you look enough like a sucker to
be mistook for one, all right, an' cut your
capers," and the old man threw out his
line and resumed his fishing.
"I love you mighty hard, Gralda, an'
I don't see how you can refuse me."
"You can't Ree, because love is blind,
you know. Not being blinded, as you
are7l can see.".
"Who woulder thought any livin' wo?
man woulder refused to marry me. You
sartainly kain't be in your right mind."
"No matter about the condition of my
mind. It is my own, regardless of con?
ditions."
Without replying, the young man went
away, and the girl, not in the least dis?
turbed, went about her work.
It began to look as if the girl really
did not intend to marry, for every suitor
was rejected with indifference.
"Whenever I fall in love, father, I will
tell you," she said; "I hardly think this
is likely though, for I have seen nearly
all the men in the county, and I reckin
men in other counties are about the
same,"
" One day a young fellow named Lige
Blakemore went to the mills. Every?
where Lige put in an appearance, he im?
mediately secured the pastry for homeli?
ness, and the beauty of his ugliness was
the fact that he was.proud of it. When
Lige entered the mill Gralda was pour?
ing corn into the hopper. The old man
was asleep.
"Why didn't you bring your turn yes?
terday when we had more water V asked
the girl.
"Wall, why didn't you keep the water
till I got here?"
"You must think that you are a very
important character with your big nose
and catfish mouth ?"
"Yas, an' you must think you are a
little Gineral Jackson wrapped up in
rose leaves, but you ain't, lemme tell
you."
"Well, help up here with the corn ?"
"You must be a blame fool, gal, to
think that I'm goin' (er pay you ter let
me grind the corn. Why don't you wake
up the old man ?"
"He is tired."
"So is a goat."
"Ain't you going to help me?"
"No, blame 'fi do. Here, old lummux,
flop up an' help the gal."
"Who you talkin' to?" exclaimed the
old man, arising with difficulty.
"You, of course. Help up with the
co'n an' don't shirk," and taking down a
fishing rod, Mr. Blakemore sauntered
away.
At evening, while the girl was closing
the mill, she turned to her father and
said:
"Pap, I'm in love."
"Who's the feller?"
"Lige Blakemore."
"W'y he's as ugly as sin, an' he ain't
got no sen< e."
"Can't help it. I love him." j
"Does he know it ?"
"No, but you must tell him." j
"The dickens!" 1
"Not the dickens, but Lige."
The. old man knew that a protest, no
matter how vigorous, would avail noth?
ing, and the next day he went over to
Elakemore's. Lige was just making ar?
rangements to go out on a camp-bunt.
Old Potter called him off to one side, al?
though there was no one else within
hearing, and said :
"It's mighty ticklish business that I'm
od to day, Lige. My darter loves you
an' sent me over to tell you."
"Haven't got time to tbiok about it
now, ole man. Jes' tell the gal to keep
quiet till I get back. Good day," and he
was gone. Three weeks afterward he
called at the mills. Gralda met him and
conducted him to the little window where
she had rejected so many suitors.
"Lige, father told yon, didn't he ?"
"Yes."
"Well, I couldn't help it, Lige. I
knew that if some one didn't tell you,
you would never know it, and I couldn't
think of going through life without you.
Don't you think that you can love me
just a little ?"
Tears were running down his rough
cheeks. Putting his arm around her
and drawing her to him, said :
"Angel, I have loved you fur ten
years."?Arkansaw Traveler.
Etipuette for Men.
Don't wear clothes that attract atten?
tion, either from their being too much
out of the fashion or too much in it.
Notice the prevailing style of hats,
clothes and shoes and see that yours
accord with it A gentleman is well
dressed when there is nothing noticeable
about his attire.
Don't wear business clothes to an after?
noon reception or a dinner in the even?
ing. Always put on a black coat for
afternoon and wear a dress suit for din?
ner and at evening.
Don't wear a white tie with anything
but a dress suit, and don't wear at any
time a gaudy cravat. One of dark or
low-toned colors id generally preferaole.
Bich white Lord Stanley cravats can be
worn with a dark Prince Albert or cut
away coat in Spring or Summer.
Don't wear a large single diamond in
your shirt front at auy time, or diamond
studs in any way noticeable for size.
Small cat's-eye.studs are sometimes worn
With a dress suit, but small plain gold
ones are preferred.
Don't wear much jewelry, at any time.
Don't smoke in the presence of ladies.
Always remove your cigar when bowing
to a lady, and it is even more polite to
throw it away when bo doing. It is even
questionable taste for a gentleman to
smoke in the street at any time.
Don't bow to a lady nntil she has
bowed to you.
Thia rule, of course, admits of modi*
fixation in certain cases of relationship
or acquaintance when the lady evidently
does not, fiom some cause, recognize the
gentleman.
Don't shake hands with a lady on your
first introduction to her, nor afterwards,
unless she first evinces a desire to do so.
Don't call on a lady unless you have
obtained permission to do so.
Don't make your calls or visits too
long. Madam Becamier once said that
"one honr was all she granted to the
most agreeable of men, and that she.
could stand nobody longer than that."
Don't fail to send in your card on
your first call, and in fact it is better to
do so always to avoid mistakes, etc.
Don't forget to always raise your hat
when yon bow to a lady or an elderly
gentleman.
Don't fail to answer notes, invitations,
etc., promptly and don't ever arrive late
for a dinner party, and if anything would
prevent your attendance at a dinner at
which you have promised to be present,
notify your host or hostess at the first
possible moment.
Don't drink to much wine, either at a
dinner, evening party or a ball. This
rule applies at any time, but especially
in society. It is a good plan either for
a gentleman to abstain entirely when in
society, or to limit himself to a certain
small and harmless amount.
Don't express yourself ungrammati?
cally and don't indulge in slang.
Watch yourself most closely in these
two particulars. Nothing condemns a
gentleman so quickly.
Dou't introduce your business affairs
into private conversation. "Talking
shop" is always objectionable.
Don't talk about your grievances. Re?
member that the world cares little for
you and less for your troubles, and above
all don't discuss your personal likes and
dislikes.
Don't adopt affectations of speech or
manner. Especially don't ape the dress,
customs, ideas and speech of a foreign
country when they are opposed to or
different from those of your own.
Don't boast about yourself or your ac?
complishments if you have any.
Don't swear or use strong terms of ex?
pression.
Don't talk about your wealth or pover?
ty, and don't appear extravagant or
miserly.
Don't make your devotion to any
young lady too apparent unless you
really have serious intentions.
Don't fail to be always polite, and
especially so to your elders.
Don't neglect your duty as a gentle?
man to be always just and courteous and
kind.
Don't fail, lastly, to always observe the
feelings and rights of others, which
more than all else marks the true gen?
tleman.? N. Y. World.
The Final Judgment.
The doctrine of a final judgment can
be clearly proven only by the Scriptures.
The same is true with regard to the doc?
trine of the resurrection. The two are
intimately and inseparably connected.
All that unassisted intellect can discover
in regard to the resurrection is very lit?
tle. Neither experience nor observation
teach us anytbiug on the subject. The
sum of the whole that we can learn out
| side of the Bible with respect to the
resurrection of the dead is, that the doc?
trine is beyond the discoveries of reason,
but not contrary to reason. No one will
deny that God can, if he so determines,
! raise the dead. This is about all that we
are able, without the Bible, to conclude
respecting the resurrection of the dear1.
No events come under our observation
which fully corroborate the fact. With
respect to a final judgment it is different.
The teachings of the Bible on this sub?
ject are corroborated by events which
take place every day, under our observa?
tion. Let it be admitted that man is an
immortal being, and that he is accounta?
ble for his acts. A few will deny that
man is an immortal being, but the num?
ber is so few that they need not be re?
garded. All men, everywhere, are
forced to admit that man is accountable
for his acts. No one will claim that any
law of God can be violated with impuni?
ty. All have an experimental knowledge
of this fact. Admit that man is an im?
mortal being and that be is accountable
for his acts, and a final judgment seems
to be a necessity. No one will claim
that justice is either fairly or fully ad?
ministered in this world. None of the
human family deserve anything good.
All are guilty, but the ratio of sin and
punishment is not strictly observed.
The greatest violaters of law are not
punished the most severely. This has
always been the case. While no tran
gressor entirely escapes, the most law
abiding frequently suffers more than the
greatest outlaws. There must be a court
of final resort in which justice is meted
out with an even hand, and all wrongs
righted. The Bible teaches us that at
the last day every member of the human
family will be rewarded according to the
deeds done in the body, whether good or
bad, and to the teaching of the Bible cn
this subject, a sense of justice, as it still
exists in man's soul, says Amen.?Rev.
Robert Jjatham in Yorhville Enquirer.
No Explanation.
A traveller for a Detroit wholesale
grocery house was the other day making
a trip between two Northern country
towns with a sleigh, when one of the
horses was taken sick, and be drew up
at a farm house and inquired if he could
put the animal out and rest him until he
recovered.
"You can," replied the woman, "but I
want to warn you in advance that I have
run away from my husband on two
different occasions?once with a drover
and once with a map seller."
"Well, what of it?"
"You'll find out as soon a3 the old man
comes up from the slashing ! He'll think
you are after me, and there'll be a row."
"Oh, I guess I can explain matters to
him."
"Don't you wait to explain nothing,"
she continued ; "he'll go for you without
a word, and if you can't wallop him
he'll give you the worst licking a stran?
ger ever got 1"
The horse was too ill to go on, and
the agent had no recourse but to stay
and face the music. He was at the barn,
rubbing the animal down, when the old
man suddenly showed himself at the
door. Waiting just long enough to
draw a full breath he made a break for
the traveller. The latter dropped his
wisps of hay and felt of the farmer's
right eye in a way that laid him flat.
He got up and came again, but was re?
ceived with a stinger on the jaw,'and as
he went down the traveller got him by
the throat and held him fast. By and
by, when he dared let him up a little, he
explained:
"I was forced to stop here and take
care of a sick horse."
"Well, that's all right," replied the
farmer.. "Let me up and I'll help rub
him."
He was assisted to his feet and went to
work with considerable heart. By and
by he went to the house and bad his eye
bound up, and when supper was ready
he insisted that the traveller should eat
with him.. Not a cent would he take
when the latter was ready to go, but
extending his hand he said :
"Stranger, I've licked seven different
men who stopped here within the past
six months, and it kinder does me good
to get knocked under the benches.
Next time you come this way stop and
give me an hour's lesson. Good-bye to
you."?Detroit Free Press.
Why the Editor Declined.
I bet a man here, not long ago, a bar?
rel of flour, to go to the orphan asylum,
that we bad a hundred ladies in this town
handsomer than Langtry. I was to write
them in a Lexington newspaper, and the
public was to decide who should pay for
the barrel of flour. It was a draw bet.
I wrote out a list of an even hundred,
with some introductory remarks, and
banded it to an editor here. He looked
at it and inquired if that was all of my
list. I said yes, and to my disgust he
said he would not publish that list for
$100. I wanted to know why be
wouldu't publish it, and he said because
he would get killed for it; and he am?
plified to the effect that his hide would
be as full of thirty-two calibre holes be?
fore night as a piece of sheeting iron at
an exposition washer cutter. I told him
I could certainly see nothing but com?
pliment and gentlemanly gallantry in it,
and was sure nobody could be offended
for having a name to appear in such a
connection. "You didn't catch on
right," he said; "they are not these that
you have got that I am afraid of, but
they are those that are left out," and
then I tumbled to the racket.?Louisville
Courier-Journal.
? "Your father is worth at least half
a million," said he to his jealous sweet?
heart. "That is true," she murmured.
"And yet you doubt my love," he re?
plied, in au injured tone.
? "Miss Gimps," said a lady to an?
other during a recent call, "why don't
you jot? the daughters of temperance ?"
'Cause." "Cause why?" "Why?why
I?" was the blushing reply, "I intend
joining one of the sons next month."

THE HARD-WORKXXGr MAN".
I Ic was a hard-working man, and for a good many years he had been'
working twice as hard as any man ought to work.
He said he had a splendid constitution, and that he could stand it.
He forgot that as years passes on the waste of the system is much
greater than in youth, while the repair of it is less. *
He became weak, debilitated, nervous, and despondent. He regarded
the future with dread, and said he had worked himself into an untimely
grave. * \ ?H;. "? *, '
But he was not taken to the cemetery at all, Instead of that, a good
friend brought him some Brown's Iron Bitters. ?'? ???
He began to pick up strength. That was what he wanted. Brown's
Iron Bitters enriched his failing blood and put new life into him. It toned
up his.digestive organs so that his food began to nourish him and do him
<?ood. Most heartily docs he recommend Brown's Iron Bitters. 13
