Of a ^ry Inquiring Mind.
- ? ;One day-we'' sat in a Car seat on a
Southern railroad behind a pale, care*
worn lady, who was talking to a little
boy. As the little boy was of a very in?
quiring niind, and everything seemed to,
attract his attention, I could not help1
listening to some of his questions.
i^haVis/that, auntieV the little boy
commenced, pointing to a stack of hay.
.. "Oh, that's hay, dear," answered the
careworn lady.
. ??Waat Is hay, auntie ?"
kwhyvhay Is hay, dear."
"But what is it made of?"
"Why, hay is made of dirt and water
and air."
"Who makes itr

"In both, dear?"

^"?'xlifcmoon lay 'em ?"
"Tes, I guess so," replied the wicked

y"Can the moon lay eggs, too ?"
"I'Buppose ab." Don't bother me."
Another short silence, when Willie
broko out:
"I think a whale could lay eggs?don't

? ^'?h, yes, I guess so," said the shame?

"Did you ever see a litte fly eat

"Yes, dear."
"Where?"
"Willie, sit down on the seat and be
still or I'll shake you. Now, not another

And the lady pointed her finger sharp?

to stick it through him. If she had been
a wicked woman she would have sworn.

Devastation and Death.
St. Lours,- Jane 26.?-A telegram from
the City of Mexico aays::
Telegraphic communication-, which has
been interrupted for several days by the
has been restored, and particulars
of the terrible disaster on the line of the
Mexican Central Railway, particularly
at Leon and Silao, aft obtained. During
the past ten days the table lands between
here and Zacatecas have been visited by
unprecedented rains. Every mountain
rivulet along the Central Railway for
more than 200 miles has been converted
[ into a destructive torrent, and the val?
leys present the appearance of lakes.
Many .cities and towns nave been inun?
dated, and Leon and Silao have been
{partially destroyed. The houses in this
country are almost universelly of adobe,
which soon became saturated, and when
exposed to the action of the current of
the water Bpeedily fill to pieces. At
Silao about 325 houses were destroyed,
but it does not appear that there was any
loss of life, the suffering being princi?
pally from exposure and scarcity of food,
At Leon, however, the climax of the
flood came in the night, and people were
crushed or drowned in their falling
"houses and in their endeavors fo escape
to high ground. The town was in the
centre of a lake which had formed about
it from the sudden uprising of the river.
Estimates of the loss rather increase
than diminish -as the investigation pre
ceeds.
June 20th was the night of
st Statement,
[ just received, places the number of
houses destroyed in Leon at 2,224, and
the homeless families at more than 1,000.
More than 250 bodies have been recov
ered from the ruins, and there a no
probability that the number wftl fall
I short of 700.
A dispattth from El Paso places the
f loss far beyond the City of Mexico ad*
vices. It says in the flooded district
(not including Leon) fifteen hundred
lives were lost, and that one thousand
bodies have been recovered. Leon is a
city of 100,000 inhabitants) and. a large,
part of it is in ruins. The Mexican col-'
\ lector of customs at Paso del Norte re?
ceived an official dispatch stating, that
one hundred miles cf the Mexican rail?
road is impassable, and that it will, be
ten days before the mails get through,
and twenty days before freight can be

, The Rule of Parties,
During the century of our national
existence the Democracy held the presi?
dency for fifty-two years, the Federalists
twelve years, the Whigs twelve years and
. the Republicans twenty-four years. Tho
Democracy began with Jefferson, who
was elected for two terms, followed by
'Madison and Monroe, so that for twenty
four years the era of good feeling contin
I ued uninterruped. The elections in
? 1824, showed that on trre popular vote
the Democracy waa again.successful, but
Andrew Jackson not having the necessa?
ry majority in the electoral college the
I choice devolved qpon the house, of repre
senatives, and John Quiucy AdamB, a:
Whig, was declared president for the next
four years. The ^Democracy avenged the
wrong perpetrated, as they alleged, by
electing Jackson for two. terms, and he
was succeeded by Martin Van Buren, thus
giving the Democratic party twelve more
conBecutivo years in office.
The Whigs followed with the election
of Harrison and Tyler, and gave place in
1845 to James K. Polk, by which the
I Democracy again came into power. In
1849 Taylor was elected on the Whig
ticket, and the Whig candidates in.the
two ensuing presidential .elections were
beaten by Pierce and Buchanan, giving
the Democrats eight more years of official
power.
The Republicans elected Lincoln twice,
Grant twice, followed by Hayes and
Garfield, which gave that party twenty
j. four consecutive years of authority.
? This, it will be seen, is also the same
period of political prosperity that the
Democracy enjoyed after it came into
existence. The. old Whig party never
succeeded in keeping in office for more
than one term, while the Democracy,
prior to the war, never had its trust limi?
ted to a period of four years but once,
and that was during Folk's administra?
tion, from 1845 to 1849. The Democracy
began with twenty four years of continu?
ous power. Its next period was twelve
years and then it fell off to four years.
Its last ante bellum-term lasted from
1853 to 1861, a period of eight years.
The Effects of Christianity.
The effects of the work of Christ are
ever to the unbeliever indisputable and
historical. It expelled cruelty; it curbed
passion; it-branded suicide; it punished
and repressed an execrable infanticide;
it drove the shameless impurities of hea?
thendom into a congenial darkness.
There was hardly a class whose wrongs
it did not remedy.- -
It rescued the gladiator, it freed the
I slave, it protected the captive, it nursed
the sick, it sheltered the orphan, it
elevated woman, it shrouded as with a
halo of sacred innocence the tender years
of the child. In every region of life its
ameliorating influence was felt. -It
elevated poverty from a curse into a
beatitude. It ennobled labor from a
vulgarity into a dignity and a-duty. It
sanctified marriage from little more than
burdensome convention into little less
than a blesaed sacrament. -It revealed
for the first time the angelic beauty and
purity of which men had despaired, and
of meekness at which they utterly
scoffed. It created the very conception
of charity, and broadened the limits of
its obligations from the narrow circle of
a neighborhood to the widest horizons of
the race.
And while it thus-involved the idea of |
humanity as a common brotherhood,
even where its tidings were not believed
?all over the world, wherever its tidings
were believed, it cleansed the life and
elevated the soul of each individual man.
^.nd in all lands where it has molded the
characters of its true believers, it has
created hearts so pure, and lives so peace?
ful, and homes bo sweet, that it might
seem as though those angels who had
heralded its advent bad also whispered to
every despairing and depressed sufferer
among the sons of men, "Though you
have lain among the pots, yet shall ye
be as the wings of a dove covered with
silver, and her feathers with yellow
gold."?Dr. Farrar'8 Life of Christ.
? In 1876 the Knights of Honor grand
lodge of Georgia was organized and has
since paid to families of members in that
State $600,000.

generous when they h,ave nothing to
give.
A True Man.
;<Iam my own master," says the young
I man. Well, be your own master, and Bit
down and have an earnest and plain talk
with yourself. Ask yourself who yottaro,
what you have been doing, what you are,
' what you are doing now, ano" what you
propose or-eipect to 'do hefbaher. Aak
yourself what you have done to make the
world wifler, or better, or happier ? Try
to ascertain whether you have done the
world good or done it harm, see if you j
have been of. any real service to man?
kind, and how. What are you worth to
the world in which you live? What
great enterprise for tbe promotion of
human interest would suffer by your
death ? How many would miss you, or
care whether yon lived or. died ? You
are one of fourteen hundred millions of I
human beings on earth. How much and
What sort of influence have you exercised
on others ? or have you or do you exer?
cise influence worth notice at all? Yon
are your own master. Does the master
try to be a man, or is he content to be a
mere Cipher or 0 in society? Has he
sufficient self respect to keep himself]
above aU that is 'coarse, low, vulgar and
bad? Does he always speak the truth?
never use obscene or profane language?
never do a mean thing? Is he always
regardful of age, respectful to equals, and
kind to inferiors? Does he labor earn?
estly to improve his mind, his morals and
his manners; or, is he carelessj idle and
indifferent to such things? Does he
apanfl-ranoh-'time nn'the-~ooapaiiy~'?Tj
idlers?in smoking, drinking and foolish
talking? If so, tell him?that master of I
yours?he is on the wrong _ tfatfc, ahd if]
he does not switch, himself off there is
surely & -crash ahead,* and no one to
save the pieces, and when it comes tbe
verdict of the people will be "served him
right." He might have known it wonld
come. He lived. for it and be has it>
"Yon are your own ?master." Bettet
watch that master very closely?see that
he forma no bad habits, beeps but of bad
company* uses bo Improper language, is
always engaged in some honest and use?
ful pursuit, lives honestly; truthfully
land usefully.,
If these and like things are atten?
ded to, then and then only, may yon
expect to be of any real service to the
generation and age in which yon live.
Remember there will be many obstacles
to overcome, many difficulties to be en- J
countered, many temptations to be resis?
ted, and many hard struggles between
inclination and duty, so that yon will
have to put down all the will force yon
can possibly command, bnt choose the
right in all things and stick to it, and all
will end well. It requires continued and
earnest effort to be a true man, true in
in every sense of the word, and yet every
man may be a true man if he will.
With all the privileges granted, and all
the ad vantages attainable, its still de?
pends on the individual himself.?St.

The House Fly.
Some one has asked where do flies go
in the winter. This is a question of some
interest, for a house fly is horn fully
grown and of mature'siie, and there are
ho little flies of the same species, the
small Ohes occasionally observed being
different in hind from the large ones.
The house fly does not bite or pierce the
skin, but yathere its food by a comb or
rake or a brush-lite to?g?e, with which
It is able to scrape the varnish from cov?
ers of books, and it thus tickles the skin
of persons npon which it alights to feed
upon the perspiration. A fly is a scaven?
ger and is a vehicle by which contagious
diseases are spread. It poisons Wounds
and may carry deadly virus from decay?
ing organic matter into food. It retires
from the sight at the beginning of winter,
but where it goes few persons know. If
a search of the house is made they will
be found in great numbers secreted in
warm places in the roof or between the
partitions or floors. Last winter we had
occasion tq examine^ .roof and found
around the chimney myriads of flies hib?
ernating comfortably and sufficiently
lively to fly, when disturbed, "in over?
powering .clouds." No doubt this is a
favorite winter resort for these creatures.

"?o you ever trust, Mr. Astor?" in?
quired Mr. K?,
"I.do not trust strangers, sir," was the
reply, "unless they furnish me with sat?
isfactory city reference."
"Then," said Mr. K?, "the skinB I
have selected must Buffice this time," and
paying for the same he 'departed. In
the afternoon of the same day, just be?
fore the sailing of the Bedford steamer,
the young trader returned for his lot of
furs. Throwing the whole pack on his
back he left the store, but be had not
proceeded a dozen yards when Mr. Astor
called his name and bade him come back.
"Sir," said Mr. Astor, "you can have
credit for any amount of goods you
require, provided they are to be found in
my store
"But," stammered Mr. K?, "but my
dear sir, I can give you no city references.
I am a stranger here."
"I ask no other recommendation,"
responded the rich merchant, "than
already furnished by yourself. The man
who is not above his business need never
hesitate to apply to John Jacob Astor for
credit?"
'Joslau's Wife.
"When my Josiah and me first mar?
ried," she said, "I'd an idee that he
hadn't a fault in the world. I wouldn't
hear to anything bot that he was perfect,
and he thought the same of me.
"He just thought, Josiah did, that he'd
drawn one of them impossible prizes in
the lottery of matrimony?? woman with?
out a fault.
"Well, by the time we'd gone through
two or three housekeeping scrapes, a
taking up and putting down carpets, and
setting up and tearing down stoves, and
all that soft of thing, to say nothing of
'bine Monday,' wash-day, and toothaches
that lasted three days at a time?time
we'd gone through all that, Josiah had
found out that I wasn't quite an angel;
and I'd discovered that he could do and
say things the saints would skeersely do
and say.
"And one day, in one of my penitent
spells, I says to Josiah, says I, 'I ain't
the person you thonght I was, am I,
Josiah? I ain't half as good and sweet
as you thought I'd be.'
"We was at the dinner table when I
said it, and there was a big dish of beau?
tiful honey in the comb on the table.
Josiah picked it up, and he says, says be,
"Mirandy, I like honey as well as any
man living likes it, and you like it, too,
but if we had to eat it three times a day
for even six months, we'd get so despritly
sick of it w,e'd never want to hear the
word'honey'again. Variety," says he,
"is the spice or life, sure enough."
"And most married folks, I take no

and they've variety enongh to make life

what can be said for the parent who
sees his child languishing daily and fails
to recognize the want of a tonic and
blood-purifier? Formerly, a course of
bitters, or sulphur and molasses, was the
rule in well-regulated families; but now
all intelligent households keep Averts
Sarsaparilla, which is at once pleasant
to the taste, and the most searching and
effective blood medicine ever discovered.
Nathan S. Cleveland, 27 E. Canton St.,
Boston, writes: " My daughter, now 21
years old, was in perfect health until a
year ago -when she began to complain of
fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness,'
wdjgestion, and loss of appetite. I con?
cluded that all her complaints originated
in impure blood, and induced her to take
Ay er s Sarsaparilla. This medicine soon
restored her blood-making organs to
healthy action, and in due time reestab?
lished her former health. I find Ayer's
Sarsaparilla a most valuable remedy for
the lassitude and debility incident to
spring time."
J. Castright, Brooklyn Power Co.,
Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "As a Spring
Medicine, I find a splendid substitute
for the old-time compounds in Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, with a few doses of Ayer's
Pills. After their use, I feel fresher and
stronger to go through the summer."

FOUND BY ACCIDENT.
Baltimore, Md., Jan. 28,1888.
I have been a sufferer for 6 years with Catarrh,
Ulcerated Sore Throat and Kheumatism of the
Chest, from Blood Poison. About four weeks ago
I woo passing the Botanic Blood Balm Store, No. 8
North Street, Baltimore. I went in and Cohsulted
your agent about mV case. Ho gave me one of ;
?your B. B. B. "Book or Wonders," which I read. I j
called In f. few days afterward and cot a bottle of
yPHr.S?'t?ntoBloodBalhi?B.B.B, i am now on
the third bottle and will say that I have felt a
marked improvement since the third day after
commencing to use your medicine. I now have
bo trouble from my throat, and have improved so
much in every way that I am satisfied that by the
use of your medicine I will soon be all right.
I have taken many and some good prescriptions
and medicines for this trouble, out I think your
B. B. B. the best remedy I have had, and I cheer?
fully recommend your ''Botanic Blood. Balm" to
the public as. the quickest and best Blood remedy
I H?ve ib?ha, efior six long years of search for

years with boils scattered about all over her per?
son. They would make their appearance every
spring, and last through tho summer and until
late in tho fall. Her health was sadly impaired,
losing flesh and strength every day; in fact, they
Were sapping her life. I gave her one' bottle of
B. B. B? and the efJect.waSlike iiiagic, -producing
complete euro and restoring her health. To-day
she is perfectly sound and her health fully re?
stored. It is without doubt the best and most
