C. WARDLAW, Adm'r. Nov 22,1893,; 20 ? An Intelligent Dog. Part or his lifo he lived at Cambridge,: and as he. had a great deal of spare time! on hiB hands (his master being mach engrossed by his literary work), be took: to paying visits to a neighboring police station) and taking his exercise with members of the staff. His master knew' but little of his movements, as Spot was a dog of independent habits and well able to take care of himself.- On some occasions he' absented himself for a few days together, bnt always turned up safe and sound at the end of. that time?' no anxiety being meantime fett about him, although nobody knew what be did with himself. Enlightenment on this point was brought borne to his master in the follow* ing-fashion: He had been giving himself a little more relaxation of late, and Spot had been in consequence more with him and less abroad on his own 'devices. One evening, as master and dog were sitting over the fire together, there came a knock at the door, followed by the entrance of a police constable, whose appearance Spot hailed by flopping his tail upon the floor. "If you please, Bir," began the man civilly, "I've come to ask if you can kindly spare the dog for a bit ?" "The dog!" replied the master in surprise; "my dog, do you mean? What do you want him for?" "We've got a new man on the beat, sir," was the answer* &b 1? that would explain everything. Much perplexed, the dog's master pro? ceeded to make inquiries, and elicited the information that Spot, from accompany* ing the different men on their rounds, had learned every beat with the greatest precision, and was quite a qualified adept at instructing the new men. The con? stable simply started the dog . on any given round and bade the new man Mow him fand sure enough Spot would show him his beat, take him accurately round, it and never make, a mistake. Night or'day he Would be at the service ofany new man and would constitute him? self his protector until he had familiari? zed himself with his new duties. "It saves us telling off a man to in? struct a newcomer> you see, sir," conclud? ed; the CQOTtabre.' "And if so be as you can spare . the dog, you'll be doing us a kindness. Taught him, sir? Bless-you, he taught his own sell. Nobody ever tanght him nothing. Dog like that don't want no teaching. He just keeps his-eyes and ears open, and takes it in like a human creature?that he do I" It really seemed sometimes as if the policeman's Words were true. One of the sons of the house where he lived, who was going to life in Dublin, petitioned to take Spot with him, as he was such a companion. This was agreed* to and Spot was taken from the Minor House, where his later years had been passed, and transplanted to Dublin, Letters' brought the news that he did not seem to settle down at all comfortably; and one morning) as the family were assembled at breakfast, what was their surprise to'nee Spot walk calmly in, with an air of the utmost assurance, and lie quietly down, with a sigh of contentment, upon a favorite black mat of his in front of one of : the French windows; He.was tired and rather shabby looking, but quite composed and self-contained) show* ing no effusive excitement, but a sort of calm satisfaction, wbh)h Was quite as eloquent in its way. At first it was sup? posed thatihe dog's master must be on the road, as it was considered impossible that the dog could have crashed the water alone; but no master came, only a letter announcing the loss of Spot. Partly out of curiosity, I believe, (though it seemed rather a shame, I thought,) poor Spot was sent back to Dublin. But what a dog can do once he can do again, and very soon be was back again in his old home, from which no further attempt was made to move him. It was then I made his acquaintance; and though I . never witnessed any feats of extraordinary sagacity, he always had th^'air ana -mariner of a very wide awake and intelli? gent dog. . He had odd likes and dislikes amongst the horses,' with whom he spent most of his time. There were some amongst them with whom ho positively declined to run, whoever rode or drove them, whilst it was a perfect delight to go; with others. Altogether, he was a carious dog, and decidedly an original. , ? Cag&eWs Family Magazine. A Girl Blacksmith, ??' Among the exhibits at the Mechanics' Institute Fair at San Francisco few. have more-interest than the dozen horse shoes to the right of the main entrance. These horse shoes, perfectly shaped, handsomely polished ana withal scientifically correct, are the work of Miss Annie Bole, aged 15 years. 'Miss Bole is the daughter of a ^teamBter, and lives in the rear of a black? smith sbop at 911 Battery street, kept by a man named Walsh. It was in this shop that a reporter found her. Walsh said that the young lady had been taught by him, and ho was very proud of his pupil. "I've seen dozens that tried it," be said, "but none of 'em had the nateral talent for making horse shoes that the young lady's got. Mis' Huntington, thafa worth her forty millions, made a good offer at it, but couldn't quite do it. There ain't a man this side of Lundon that could make horse shoes like that young lady." At the blacksmit'a request Miss Bole made a horse shoe then and there. A piece of round iron was cut off by Mr. Walsh, and Miss Bole rolled up her sleeves, thereby revealing a rather small arm, tied on a leather apron and plunged the iron into the fire. The young lady is about five feet three inches highland rather fragile than strong. She brushed the hair back, from a laughing face, and soon the hammer was ringing on the red iron with a true sound. She made the crease in the shoe, turned it into shape like a veteran, drove the nail holes and finally turned out as fine a shoe as ever graced the foot of a race horse. For Miss Bole will have nothing to do with shoes for ordinary dray borees, but confines herself exclusively to the finer shoes of composition or polished iron. Miss Bole said that she first became animated with the idea of making horse Bhoes by watching the blacksmith. Fi? nally she asked him to let her try it, and he was so much pleased with her firet effort that he showed her all that he knew .and the result was the exhibit at the Me 'chanics' Institute. She says that Bhe will not make any practical use of her accom? plishment, though she seemed anxious about her exhibit and several times ask? ed : "Will I have to go out to the fair and make a shoe there before I get any? thing?" Her instructor confidently ex? pects that she will take a premium.?San Francisco Alia ?

B?,Sold by.Druggists, 75c; A Common Christian, I was talking with Jedediah Jones about-coming to prayer meeting-, when he said: "Now, brother Oldschoor, you needn't be to bard on me, if I am not as regular as the minister and the Elders. You know that 1 can't speak or pray in public. I have no special gifts. I am just a common Christiau?a high private, and nobody misses me when I am away." This remark started a train of thought. What is a common ? Christian ? He belongs to the rank and file of the great army. He is enlisted as a soldier oT the cross. Bat, because he^is but an officer, has he, no special duties and responsi? bilities? Let us go into camp and see. The reveille sounds. The high private turns, over in his tent and composes himself for a morning nap. ' He says: "That's for the Captain, the Lieutenants and the Sergeants, They all ought to get up early and, attend to camp and guard duty] but I am only a common soldier.? it makes no difference what I rlo.rt That high private would soon find thatJhe was very much mistaken. After breakfast comes the call for company drill. We go on the parade ground. We find the officers there with only a handful of soldiers. We say: "Captain, how is this ? I thought you had a hun? dred men in your company, and here are only twenty-five in response to your call." "0," he replies, "the Bergeant, corporals and file-leaders are all here, and a few others; but the rest say that they are only common soldiers, that they don't amount to much anyway? that if they came they would only handle muskets and march and countermarch in obedience to the word of command. Bo Borne of them are Visiting, some are lounging in their tents, reading novels and newspapers." Would any Captain endure such conduct much less' excuse it? No, every soldier must respond to the call for drill, for dress parade or for guard mounting. If he does not, unless excused by the Surgeon, he is punished. It is the common soldiers?the rank and file of our armte?? that win the ' victories in war. The advance to the charge with their officers in the rear. They compose that line of battle on whose steady movement the issue depends. Every man in those serried ranks must be a hero. He must stand in his place without flinching amid the shower of shot and shell He must -keep step with bis comrades when a charge, is ordei .od. He is like a link in a chain? it fails if he fails. He is like a Stone in a wall?if be falls out of line the line tumbles into confusion and the army is routed, Great are the responsibilities of the common soldier. Without his brave co operation and prompt obedience the moat skillful General could never win a battle. And hence it is that army dis? cipline is strict, and that months are spent in drilling sold iera for active service in the field. ' And is it not so in the army of the Lord? Arenotth? rank aod file tobe ready to respond to every call of their leaden? Does not the great responsi? bility rest upon them ? If they fail, can the officers alone do anything? The Captain of our salvation has a place aod a work for every man. He has enlisted I a great many common soldiers because be needs tb?m, What, then, are some of the special duties of the common Christian ? 1. He must put on the whole armor of I God. He must appear in uniform that I all may know to whom he belongs. He 1 must be ready to come to the company headquarters,?the' church,?whenever summoned. The full strength of the company should appear at'every Sabbath service, aod at every week-day service. The moral effect of a full attendance is greater than most people think. Every one's presence encourages others, and every one's absence discourages his ?brethren. A church all of whose mem? bers are at the prayer meeting and the Sabbatb school will be a power in the community. It will move like a Mace? donian phalanx. Such attendance is the common duty of every common Christian. The.very excuse that he makes for non attendance shows- that be ought to attend. If he is not gifted so that he can speak in the prayer meeting he needs to be there-in order to be edified by the gifts of others. If be is not wise enough to teach in the Sabbath school he ought to be there as a scholar. 2. The common Christian can invite his friends and neighbors to go to church. This requires no special gift. Yet every man that you persuade to come and hear the Gospel you preach the Gospel to, you make the'minister's sermon to him by bringing fiiin to bear it. "Let him that heareth say . come," cries our Saviour. If we are interested in what we bear we will try to get others interested. If all the common Christians would attend earnestly to this easy and obvious duty our sanctuaries would be crowded, and the power of our ministers doubled. 3. The common Christian can speak a word of warning or entreaty to the com? mon sin oers whom he meets 'from day to I day. Just because he is a common Christian he knows how to talk with them. He is intellectually and socially on their level. He is in full sympathy with them in many worldly interests. The minister's visits and exhortations are regarded as official. It is bis busi? ness to talk with people about their souls; and for that very reason his talk-, ing does not impress them as that of a companion and equal would. 4. The common Christian can bold up the hands of his minister not only by bis regular attendance and his prayers, but by talking to his brethren of the truth presented on the Sabbath, and by trying to illustrate the beauty and power of the Gospel in his life. We are all living epistles. Many read us who never read the Bible. Many watch us and judge of our religion by us, who never go to church. When Dr. Beech er was asked in regard to the great revival in Park Street Church, on Boston, under his ministry, he said: "It is the work of the people and the Lord. I preach as able a sermon as I can on Sunday, and then my four buodred members go out all over the city and repeat that sermon through the week." No wonder there was a great revival when four hundred common Christians took the fire from the altar and carried it with them day by day. That was the spirit of the primi? tive Church. "They went everywhere preaching the Gospel." May God help the millions of common Christians in our churches to realize their duty to shine as lights in the world I?Obadiah Old school in Interior.

Now that Autumn is here with its va? riable weather, the mother mus t be od her guard against this dreadful enemy of the nursery. Prevention is even better than cure I and luckily this fatal disease "ca- ts its shadow before." When this shadow appears in the form of a well known cough, which so alarms every mother, sie should be ready to do, and have presence of mind enough to know what to do\ I will giro you a f^yy airhole remedies, and some of them should always be kept on baud ii there are any children about the house; for when the first noto of alarm is heard the mother cannot afford to lose a moment of time. Make a compress of flannel, wring it out of hot water, and apply to the child's chest, and over this lay a piece ,of warm, dry flannel-. Give , about a tewpooDfttl of powdered alum and sugar or molasses whenever tbe cough is heard, or until the breathing is easier. A little syrup of ipecac often answers the same purpose. Simply giving a tea spoonful of molasses and sweet oil when the cough is first heard has prevented further trouble. These are all simple remedies, which, if used when the firat signs appear, will prevent the appearance 'of the disease. One of the most success ful remedies, we have ever used when a child had croup was to wrap it up well and hold it over a bucket of slacking lime and let it inhale tbe Bteam from the lime. This is also excellent for diptheria. But the point I wish to impress upon your minds Is to be always ready. Have some of these simple remedies' in the house, also a bundle of Han bei Where the hand can be easily placed upon it, ad these attacks generally come on at night and I need prompt and wise treatment.

We will guarantee our prices in any line at least as low, and in many instances, much lower than other houses. The crop prospect was very promising while we were in the market and we overloaded; but if there is a particle of truth in the old saying, "Goods well bought are half sold," ours are as good as seven-eighths gone already. Don't be tempted by any so-called bargains until you have seen our Goods and heard our prices. Our plan is not to sell one or two articles away under value as leaders, and then make up the loss on something else, but to give tbe full worth of your money every time, whether you are posted or not. We have an eye to the future more than to tbe present, and propose to merit the con? tinued confidence and patronage of tbe people. Very respectfully, R. S. HILL, Anderson, S. C.
