The Sparrow's Lesson.
Some folks is allers grumblln' no matter
what they do,
An' they keep themselves an' others in a
neverending stew;
There's notbin' seems to please 'em an'
you'll often bear 'em say
If tbey bad this world to manage 'twould
be run a diff'rent way.
When the days are bright and sunny then
tbey allers pray fer rain ;
When the water tumbles earthward then
they want the sun again;
When the snow is softly fallin' au' the
wintry breezes blow,
Then tbey spend tbelr time in swearin'
an' a cussin' ov the snow.
There's a lesson for such people thet thet
little British pest,
Called the sparrow, is a-teacbin' though
he hasn't got no nest,
Fer he just keeps on a chatter in' an' ho
does the best be can
Fer to make an honest livin', an' you
can't Bay that o' man.
No matter what the weather, you can Bee
him in the street,
Jest a pick in' up his livin' in the rain an'
snow an' sleet.
An' he's plumper 'an a patridge an' he's
rounder 'an a ball,
Fer he knows ther's one in heaven that'll
heed a sparrer's fall.
He ain't bigger ner a minute, but be kin?
der seems to say
Though et's rainin' now, I reckon thet
the sun'll shine some day.
An' when the snowfiakes fallin' hide
from sight most everything,
He keeps up a ceaseless chatter while
he's lookin' fer the spring.
Let us emerlate the sparrem an' take
pattern by their ways.
Laugh when e'er a storm o'ertakes up,
an' then pray fer better day p.
Let's be cheerful an' contented, never
grumblin' et our lot,
Then in our hearts, I reckon, we ken find
a garden spot.
Mrs. fciraut Talks.
Mrs. Grant, the widow of General
Grant,- is now living in Washington at
the home of her daughter, Mrs. Nellie
Grant-Sartoris. In speaking of her
husband recently she said, among
other things :
"I was with the General through
nearly the whole of the war, and I
must confess I am fond of the army.
I was glad to be with him, and he al?
ways arranged his headquarters, if
possible to do so, in order that I
might share his lot. I remember when
he was stationed in Nashville he sent
for me to come, and a few days after
my arrival he was ordered away to
another post. He oame into head?
quarters looking very much depressed,
and when I told him that some of the
ladies had remarked that he always
ran away when I came, he said he had
been planning all in his power to re?
main where he was, but that Long
street's movements forced him to go
to the front. In his last campaign in
Virginia I was with him, and lived
for several months in a log cabin on
the banks of the James River. We
had waited long and anxiously for the
surrender of the South, and I remem?
ber how gladly he hailed the news
that Lee was ready to lay down his
sword. The General had a severe
headache when the tidings came, but
he said it vanished instantly. He
was glad the war was over for the sake
of the Southern people. He bore no
feeling of animosity toward his oppo?
nents, and often he has told me that
for the good of the South he wanted
to end the struggle. 'They are peo?
ple/ he sometimes remarked, 'like
ourselves. They have struck out
wildly, and for their own sakes I wish
to bring this war to an end?the soon?
er the better for both sides, for a di?
vided nation could never live. We
must be a Union.' And always his
expressions were full of a feeling that
longed to bring the whole nation back
into harmony. Few, perhaps, know
that Gen. Grant was a Blave holder,
but the fact is he had several in the
State of Missouri, and these were
freed, like those in the South, by the
emancipation proclamation. These
slaves," said Mrs. Grant, "came to
him from my father's family, for I
lived in the West when I married the
General, who was then a lieutenant in
the army. I lived in the army then
for awhile, and afterwards we farmed
in Illinois. When the war broke out
I followed him to the field."

"Where have you been all morning,

10-year-old son.
"I've been down by the old saw?

replied Dick, whose chubby counten?
ance was decorated with paint of var?
ious colors.
"I am afraid you must have bother?
ed him," said Mrs. Sampson, as she
begau to scrub her son's besmirched
features.
"No'm, I didn't bother him a hit,"
said Dick, in a moment's intermission
between the applications of soap and
water. "He was real interested in
me; I could tell by the way he talked."
"What did he say?" inquired Mrs.
Sampson.
"He looked at his watch," replied
Dick, "and told me he knew it was
'most my dinner-time. He knew a
boy of my age must be hungry, he
said, for he'd been a boy himself."?

A G KITTY CAT.
Pubs Kills an Eagle and Takes It
Home.
Charles Wiswell, of Carbonate,
Lawrence county, Minn., has a cat
that is a king of its kind. Besides
being a good mouser, this remark?
able feline is death to mountain rats,
night hawks and other small game,
not long ago bringing home as the
result of its prowess a large jack
rabbit. But the most remarkable
Incident in the cat's history hap?
pened a few days ago.
It was an encounter with a full
grown bird of freedom, and pussy
was the victor. The cat was sitting
on a pile of rjuartz patiently await?
ing the reappearance of a chipmunk,
which but ft moment before It had
chased into a hole, when suddenly
the sky abovo the cat became dark?
ened, and an ominous swish as if
from a rapidly moving body fell upon
pussy's ear. The cat sjprang aside
with a motion so rapid that the eye
could scarcely follow it, and in the
place it had occupied but a moment
before stood a full-grown bald eagle,
its plumage ruffled and thirsting for
blood. Pussy had sand and accepted
the gauge of battle, and in less time
than it takes to tell it, the famous
"monkey and parrot" time was
being re-enacted. It was a desper?
ate struggle, and, although pussy
was pretty badly scratched by the
eagle's talons, it, when taking the
initiative in the fight, secured a de?
cided advantage, having landed on
the eagle's back. For a few mo?
ments the air was filled with fur and
feathers, and the ground was all
torn up, but pussy held on, and in a
short time succeeded in biting
through the neok of its antagonist.
The struggles of the eagle grew
weaker and weaker, and soon ceased
altogether, and pussy, exhausted by
the violent exertions and sore from
wounds inflicted by the eagle's tal?
ons, rested for a moment, then, &9
calm as though sitting on a rug be?
fore the kitchen hearth, went care?
fully over the ruffled fur, made its
toilet, and, seizing the body of the
vanquished antagonist, drew it with
much difficulty to the home of its
master. Laying it at the master's
feet, the cat purred its satisfaction,
and in this way boasted of the vic?
tory.
The combat was witnessed by a
number of people, everyone of whom
expressed a desire to buy the cat,
but Mr. Wiswell says ho would not
sell it for the best mine in the Black
Hills. The eagle measured six feet
four inches from the tip of "one
wing to that of the other.?St. Paul

CURIOUS ARMS.
Ancient Implements of War Which
Are Now Quito Obsolete.
Among the arms now obsolete
which formed a large part of the in?
fantry equipment in the days when
the army was started wa9 the pike,
which was in the form of a spear,
with a fiat and pointed head,
mounted on a staff from thirteen to
eighteen feet long. The firearm in
general use at tho time was tho
matchlock.
What would a sergeant major of
the present day, with his men armed
with the magazine rifle, think of
such a weapon as this: "Attached
to the lock of this musket was a pan,
also a cock, the hammer of which
was somewhat in the form of a
bird's, serpent's or dog's head; this
head was split, and a screw com?
pressed or eased the slits. The
piece being loaded first with powder
and then with ball, some powder
was poured into the pan; the pan
was then shut to keep this 'priming'
from dropping out and to keep it
dry. When the soldier wished to
fire, he fastened his burning match
into the slit of the cock, opened the
pan, looked to his priming, pre?
sented, and pulled the trigger; the
match, falling into the powder in
the pan, firod it.
"Between the pan and the breach
of the barrel communication was es?
tablished by means of a small hole;
when the piece was being loaded the
grains of powder were naturally
rammed and shaken down close to
this hole, and when priming, the
soldier took caro to perfect the com?
munication of tho powder in the pan
with that in the barrel; thus the ex?
plosion in the pan caused the igni?
tion of the charge." All the'Year
Round.
Tho "Man-Eater."
Lower California is the home of a
speoles of lizard which appears to bo
at least a second cousin to the famed
"Gila monster." It \s of a mottled
yellow and brown color and only
about fifteen Inches long. The na?
tives of that region have given it tho
torrible nomo of "Man-eater," be?
cause it has a habit of attucking
every human being it sees?going at
them open-mouthed?but does not
appear to mind either wild or do
mestlo animals. The man-eater's
body is almost as brittle as that of
the mythical "joint-snake."

? One of the most remarkable
characters in the United States is an
old soldier known to the G. A. R. men
of the East as "Comrade Chase.
Chase served in a Maine battery dur?
ing the war, and oarries the scarB of
nearly 100 wounds, 48 of which were
received ia the single battle of Get?
tysburg. During the "period of con?
flict" he is snid to have received more
wounds than any other man who
fought on citner side, and lived to tell
of his marvelous escapes, and exhibit
his numerous scars in proof of his
wonderful story.

Here is a story, told by the New
York Herald, that illustrates two
facts, first, the foolishness of making
bogus wedding presents, or if not bo?
gus presents, pretentious gifts; and
second, that no matter how carefully
you may invite your guests to your
marriage, it is well to watch them, for
people in good society will steal.
As far back as 1S55, in a small
Hudson river town, a young woman
was married to her father's confiden?
tial clerk. In addition to winning his
bride, the young man seenred a part?
nership in his father-in-law's concern,
and on the day of the wedding there
were displayed, as was the custom in
those days, the presents. Among
them was a check for $10,000 from the
bride's father.
The couple lived happily together
for nearly 30 years, when the husband
died. At intervals the wife visited
her old home, met and conversed with
her old friends, reared her children in
the fear of the Lord, and was in ?very
way a good member of society. A
few years after the death of her hus?
band her father, then a venerable old
man, died. "When his estate was set?
tled the daughter and widow found
herself charged in the will with $10,
000, to bo deducted from her portion
of the estate.
"But," she said to the executors,
"I never received this money. And
it is not fair to deduct it from my
portion of the estate. I don't care to
contest the will, but I think there
must be some mistake about it. I
recollect the cheek among my wed?
ding presents, but I never saw it
afterward. I suppose my husband
took it, and if he did it was all right,
but I have no proof of it either way.';
The executors were in a quandary,
and in some way the story of the
missing check became known in the
village. Then a surprising thing
happened. One of the most respect?
able citizens of the town, a prominent
member of the church, came forward,
and, after a good deal of hesitation,
drew from his pocket a faded slip of
paper.
"See what my wife found in an old
suit of clothes," said he. "I?I?
don't know how it came there, but I
thought it might be of some service to
you."
It was the $10,000 check. Whether
in jeBt or with the intention of steal?
ing it, the respectable citizen had put
it in his pocket. Having it once in
his possession, he found it an awkward
instrument. He was equally afraid to
use it or mention the fact of his hav?
ing it, until 30 years later, when the
discussion regarding the will made it
possible.
Cotton Pods for London.
A young woman from South Caro?
lina has been paying a long holiday
visit to New York, all the expenses
of which have been defrayed from the
outcome of a trifling incident which
occurred to her two years ago. At
that time her Bister was at school in
England, and, thinking that the ab?
sent sister might like to see something
of home, she sent her a cardboard box
containing a couple of twigs of half
opened cotton pods. These were seen
by a London florist of ideas, who
found out what they were and where
they came from, and thon commis?
sioned the school-girl to write to her
sister, making the offer of a very nice
price for any number of such sprays
delivered to him in good condition, to
be used for decorative purposes.
The proposition was accepted, and
for two seasons now the young woman
has sent over each year three big
packing boxes of prime pods, bought
cheap from her father'fe plantation
It rather dashed her good spirits when
she learned that the "decorative pur?
poses" for which the half-opencdpods
were to be used should really have
read mortuary purposes, the shrewd
florist having conceived the idea that,
tied up in white or pale mauve ribbon,
they would form a very pretty emblem
for departed buds and other young
persons. But the draft that accom?
panied the revelation was so hand?
some that it considerably modified the
shock, and, as has been said, ono of
the results has been a long pleasure
visit to New York on the net profits
from this odd transaction in South
Carolina cotton pods.?N. Y. Sun.
For Christmas, 1899.
The close of the nineteenth and the
dawn of the twentieth centuries are
to be celebrated by the ringing of the
Peace and Liberty Bell in Jerusalem.
The committee having in charge the
celebration has invited the Peace Bell
Committee to meet in the Holy Land
Christmas Eve, 1899, on the spot
where the shepherds received the
message, "Glory to God in the High?
est." The corner-stone of the great
temple to be erected in the Holy Land
will be laid at the same time.
It is proposed to have the bell con?
nected with the cables reaching to all
parts of the earth. Then a half-hour
before the time set all telegraphic
business is to be suspended, and every
syBteni connected with the Jerusalem
wire. Every congre.rrition in Christ?
endom will be assembled in its place
of worship, and when the bell is rung j
the message "Peace on earth" -will be
flashed over the world at the same
moment.
She Silenced a Borr.
Miss Maud Adams is a member of
the company supporting John Drew,
and a good story is going the rounds
concerning her quick wit. One after?
noon she attended a luncheon party
and met, among others, a young man,
recently married, who is noted for his
bold manners, and who has won the
name of being the biggest bore in
society. He asked Miss Adams a
number of personal questions, and the
hostess was about to speak to him bnt
received his just punishment from the
young lady he had been bothering. j
"Miss Adams," he asked, "will you
tell me if you arc married?"
"I am not."
"Do you contemplate such a step?"
"I give it no thought."
"And why, pray?" he persisted.
"Because I am not so easily pleased
as your wife was." 1
Country Life Tersus City Life*
For some time my mind has been
occupied with the subject of the cap?
tion, especially as related to young
people. Did you ever notice, my
young friends, that in most of the so
called reunions and at banquets almosit
every Bpeakcr leads you to infer from
his remarks that he was brought up
on a farm, and then goes off in rhap?
sodies about what a splendid time be
used to have in winter when farm
work was not pressing. And some
honest ones among them will, while
heaving a sigh, say; "I wish I had
never left the farm !" At the sugges?
tion that the way was open, and that
he could go back if he wanted to, the
answer comes : "It is too late in life
for me to commence anew in the coun?
try."
One often meets with young men
who arc anxious "to go on the road,"
that is to say they would like to be
commercial drummers. I am afraid
they think that the life of such a po?
sition is a continual frolic ! What a
sad mistake ! The commercial trav?
eler has to sell goods ; if he fails he is
superseded. Travel by night; get up
out of your berth after midnight, per?
haps go to a livery stable, wait until a
horse is fed and then dash off into
darkness and travel on all sorts of
roads a dozen miles or less, reach your
destination just after breakfast is
over, wait for your meal and gulp it
down, quality good, bad or indifferent
and then seek a customer or two only
to find that another drummer has just
taken their orders. Now for the next
place, and on that little journey you
meet your man who had scooped the
trade and he laughs at you. Do you
think the situation pleasant ? That
is not romancing, but a plain, every?
day fact.
But you are still inclined to thiuk
it is a pleasant life in the city, even
if you have to obey others' bidding.
You say; "There are Y. M. C. A.s'
?thank God there are?and they will
help an honest, right-minded young?
ster like me. It would he dreadful if
one could not paBS these trials and
ordeals unscathed. Others have done
so, many of them, and why not I ?"
I think the chances arc against you.
But before you take the decided
step, let me tell you of some of the
good things you intend to forsake.
You will miss most likely the counsel
of a mother, and when you are per?
plexed and have a headache you will
miss her cool hands which have so
often cured it and brought the welcome
sleep.
You will miss also the bright and
pleasant rally and call of a sister older
than yourself, who has often made you
laugh and dispelled the blues when
you were only tired in body and glum
in mind and behavior because of the
hard lot of a farmer. You will miss
all the nice little partic.3 gotten up in
the neighborhood and the pleasant
ride with a young lady in a buggy on
a seat just large enough for two.
But, you say, I would get a position
in a store in the city. All right. If
you have a prospect, capital and
friends, so that you can look forward
to being the owner of a store it is
worth while to learn to be a merchant.
It is at best a calling not only what
one may learn in a business college ;
but an almost universal knowledge of
things so varied that a life-long ex?

Now just here a word of caution. He
or some other chance acquaintance
may try?most likely will try?to
laugh you out of your good habits ;
first by insinuation, next by ridicule,
etc. If you are bo unfortunate as to
have a sick spell your little savings,
under the most favorable conditions,
will melt like a snow flurry in May.
You will most likely miss your
favorite dishes which your mother
knew how to prepare, tho abundance
of cream and fresh berries, .the nice
butter and suoh bread as bakers do
not furnish, and last, though not
least, you will miss your own room
and your own bed, and the sound and
refreshing sleep. "The sleep of the
laboring man is sweet, whether he ea.t
much or little," so we read in the
Book.
You tell the old story : "I will go
into the city and stay there a year and
buy and sell, and get gain." "Well,
you may, others have done so, and so
may you. The chances from the best
information obtainable are that 90 out
of every 100 merchants fail, that is to
say, fail of making a fortune. More
than 50 out of every 100 fail complete?
ly ; 40 more fail and rally and make a
precarious living, and only oue or two
out of every 100 make a fortune.
Fine clothes, a genteel appearanco,
going to concerts, lectures, etc., be?
longing to a club, may be or arc desir?
able ; but they cost money and cannot
be indulged in often, if you intend to
save any of your earnings, because you
ought to give something for benevo?
lence and aid in sustaining associa

spent more than a fourth of a century
on a farm, and who has passed through
some of the experiences herein hinted
at. The most healthful, agreeable
and in every way desirable life is the
life of the American fanner, even
when wheat is selling for only CO cents
a bushel. I Lave hauled many a load

lived through it, but enjoyed it, and
often think of a triumph over hard

The Successful Advertizer!
Is the man who writos something the
people will rata], and reading, believe. In
this og?! of odncation and enlightenment,
?.*hc-ii men rs::d and think for themselves,
all that stuff about "selling goods cheaper
(ban your competitors buy them," being
the "only competent dealers in the Hue,"
'?handling better fituff than anybody
e?sa," Ac, is rr.ero chip trap, and subjects
the writer and the Gnu back of it to the
contempt of all right-thinking people. The
man who baa fcornethinc to offer, and then
tells the folks about in a plain, business
way, is the man who "gets there," and
getting there, stands.
Lots of people handle Faint. Some
handle one kind, some another, but they
all realize, if they have any business sense
at all, that in order to make that business
a permanent success it is absolutely neces?
sary to give the people the very best ma?
terial This we have tried to do, and at a
price that puts it in the reach of all.
In this connection we call attention to
the fact that crops are about laid by, time
is plentiful, f.nd a little paint not only
freshens and beautifies, but improves won?
derfully the sanitary condition of the
premises. If your house is all right may?
be the fence needs a coat. A little Paint
would keep that old buggy from falling
down, and the wagon might last a year or
two longer by spending seventy-five cents
or a dollar in Paint on it.
Remember this, the longer you put it
off the more it takes and the less good it
does. Remember another thing, it costs
just as much, and tak~s just as much time,
to have cheap paint put r as it does good
Paint. Always buy the est, even if you
pay more for it.
