Dr. G. W.Bagby, of Richmond, Ya.,
continues hUi inrestigatious into the
New England Hfw, ami sceuen for the
Baltimore Bun. In Lis last letter ho
wrbes: Looking closely at, the face
of one of those women, whose habit it
is to do the washing of the fatally, I
sa 1 " what I had not before observed,
that, iu nor youth she must have bfea
quite pret'y. Ilor education had not
been m gtected, her tastes were refiueii,
her brow showed iutollect. The vi
vacity, the ease and gr-ce of manner,

Oae of Op!o Bead's Stories.
Near the river, io the upper part of
Arkansas, lives old Jeremiah Wlnfraw,
known all over the neighborhood as
posstfcslng a fund of profAnity so great
that no one, no matter bow desirous
o{ "swearlngV distinction, could hop©
to rival. Old Jeremiah, although
named for ooe of the most distinguish
ed prophets, made no effort toward
charactec-j. lew, so natural to women of leisure,
*, and fun were wanting. - Thsy . had gone, me-
thpught. Into the waa-tub and the
cooking stover And yet. tired as she
wifs 00 wasblbg and iroulog days, she.
was not happy. Her father, a man in
good circumstances, not grasping, but
noted rather for his liberality, had pre
ferred for her the school of the milli
ner to the fashionable boarding-
school, and as a milliner the had work
ed for many year*. Her husband,
who is evidently prospering and cer
tainly Is kind, thinks It no hardship
for her 10 do the work to which I have
alluded. Neither he nor bis wife ap
pear to regard it as drudgery.
Her**, then* 1* tb© .Tr iad social dlvl- i
sion bet ween North a;.d South. Here
comes In the sh\ log which mak 's one
section lich and keeps the o'her id
bbt. Bni the w uuan holds up the!
heavey end of the log, and that Is not
right. In thlK p.vrtienUr cav the hus
band finds better paying work than
tnilkiig, chopping w od, gardening,]
etc ; but th-disanJa of fa unhands do
these t tings ns a matter of course. I!
have seen a profeesional man, well
enough eff 10 be thought rich in ourj
part ot ths world, biacklog his shoes
In his ft opt poreh, wh*we ©very passer ]
oy eould so© him. The uilnister In
a man of atUlnidents, often
er to 00m© to his house, so great was
his aversion to the gospel. One night,
when the wind blew cold and when
the sleet beat against the window pane
with that sharp rattle so brightly ten
ding to produce thankful emotions to
those who are within a warm room,
and so exasperating to the traveler, a
man rapped on the doorof Jeremiah’s
house. . *.
“Come In,’ exclaimed the old man
aa he put aside a plate of pop-corn.
The door opened and a young man,
carrying a pair of saddbtiaga, entered,
Jeremiah immediately bfegan a series
of attentions. liu gave the stranger a
seat In a corner near the churn, while
his wife ami daughters around in
that bury flurry only known to women,
preparing supper for the ‘poor travel
er.’ After supper, when the stranger
had been invited to smN<e and when
Abel Jeretniah’s son, had been cent to
‘shelter’ the stranger's horse, tke old
man, eying the stranger, asked :
“What trade do you Toiler
“I am engaged in the Lord’s mer-
ebandhe. I, my kiud Christian friend,
am a meek and lowly circuit rider.’
"Then git outeu my house, sir,’ ex
claimed Jeremiah. “Git right out, or
I’ll apply a par of cowhide boots to
that part of your physical arrange
ment which rests In a cheer. A cir
cuit rider; why, ding your soul, I
swAppod horeoe with a circuit rider
when I was a boy, aud got cheated so
bad that my father thrashed me, Get
out of hero, Musey !’ . ax* v ‘ »
“I am sorry, my Cbrtstlw frissd—*
“Get out. Abe, git tals fetter’s
©h<->f*«. Move on.’
When the preacher Im 1 gone, the
old man sat for an hour,jif<eax1ng and
smoking.
“Fatner,’ skid Abe, "I’ll bet my hay

tliere would be much to rejoice at If
all Ita rural districts were peopled as
New England is.
And now R is high timol should eay
something about Lobaoon Itaelf. My
sole motive for coming here was to
see Yankees, whose abdominal regions
were as nzure n* any In tho hottest
radical centre of Massachusetts.
A few mllos south of WUlimanilc Is
Lebanon Station, os lonely a looking
place ns you will find in this thickly
settled onuutry. Nlcht wag approach
ing, the driver of the mail wegon was
not forth coming, but soon would bo.
It turned out that, having no mail to
meet on tho train that brougt me up,
he had gone to a neghborlog town on
bustness.and did uot make his appear
ance until tbe following mnroiug. This
fortunately enabled me to sup at »>ue
house and sleep at ano’ber, thru giv
ing me new gl raprea of life. At the
flrsr. bouse, the hat-tack made me
ihlnkthat I had run into a female
hoarding school, so full of fettilnio'
head-gear was It. There were a num
ber of young ladles, two dr three of
whom were school teachers taking a
rustic vacation, a married lady board
er ; tho mistress of 4ho house and her
two daughters completed the list. The
younger of thhse two daughters was a
lively girl, who got burned in the eye
that very evening while ri ling in a
long-coup’e 1 ox- art. I remarke 1 the
alacrity and good-natnre of this young
lady and hor eUt-'r while they were
helping their widowed mother wash
np the things after supper. I was
still more pleased with the old lady at
whose house I §lept. She served
breakfast herself, and no doubt cook
ed It herself, with little or no assist,
ance from the hired girls, tfae only one
that I have met outside tbe hotels and
the houses of tho wenithy. When I
praised the old fashioned ewer and
basin, adorned with dark blue pictures,
Fbe brought me curiona specimens of
dolf ; cheap ware, buk very old and un
common. Tranquilly her life had
passed wl thin that circle. I looked at
her and her house. It was an hum
ble abode, rusty red in colot, much of
the paint having worn away, but It
ws« clean and pure within. The rag-
carpet, the slick-back chair©, the tbia-
legged dining table with leaves to It;
the old lady herself—tali, pale, thin,
clad In a faded but neat gown, a little
cold acd precise tn her manner to tbe
stranger—how often I have seen In our
own country parts wnm©nj oat like her,
barring the Northern acoeut, to which
my eat will not accustom itaelf.
exclaimed
“Jeremiah Winfrey!*
“Where are you F said the old man,
dropping his fro© and gailag up.
Jt retni ib Winfrey 1’
“Well ?’ still gnzlag.
“Ride the circuit of th© Gospel F
“Oh. Lord !* supplicated Jeremiah,
dropping on his koeoa. “Oh I forgive
me for my sins, but keep mo from rid
ing a circuit.’
The old man went borne, and ex
perienced some trouble lo trying to
cnuvlaoo Lie wife and Abe of the fact
ib*t something supernatural had
epokeo to bim. The old lady sighed
and ©aid that she was afraid that
Jeremiah was not io hie mind. Thua
manors went ou for mouth©. Nearly
every night tbe voice at tbe barn would
call tbe old mao, and every time be
wont to the board tree tbe solemn ad
monition would come fr©m above. On-
able to longer endure such mental tor
ture, tbe old man, who bad hy this
time professed religion, made applica
tion to conference, and was accepted.
On tbe morning when he first started
out as a circuit-rider he presented
Abe witlr the sorrel nag. Ho soon In
stituted a revival, and was so success
ful that ho received a complimentary
letter from religious headquarters.
Several nights ago, just After family
prayers, and while Parson Jerelraah
waa upbraiding Able for not Joining
the church, tbe young man said :
“Pup, and you did become a circuit
rider, didn’t you V ' ,
' Certainly I did. You well know
tho circumstances.’
“Y**s, I know,’ replied Abe. "I
know a loetie more about the circum
stances than you reokoo. Arter I
made that bet with you I hid in the
barn loft apd called you through a
horn. When you dim up l hid under
thJ hay. Thon I betrt you down aad
run to the house. Next day when I
seed you goin* out to rive boards, I
cllm up iu the troo and got down iu
the holler,. I again beat you to the
house, I practiced this oa you, pap, till
you ’feseert ’llgion. I wanted tho nag.
you know.’
The old manhprang from his scat,
seized a piece of rope, bpt throwing
It down, talsed his hands and said in
a calm voice, “Lot ua pray.’
A fraudulent transaction can some
times have a good result. Tho old
mau is still a preacher.

“Why don’t you get married ?” said
a youug lady to a bachelor acquaintance
who was on a visit. “1 have been try
ing for the last (en years to find some
one who would be silly enough to take
me, and have not yet succeeded,” was
the reply. “Then you haven’t been
down ocr way,’’ was the iuaiuuating re
joinder.
The great evil la not that adverse
fortune oocasiopally knocks a man
down, but that he allows the blow to
knock all ths splrE out of him at the
same time, ' , *i
fore shipping, marine risk, and freight
and cartage to Interior towns, which
amounts tn all to some $7. per bale
The Northern mills also lose from re
ceiving cotton poorly globed, contain
ing a good deal of leaf and sand,
which in oomputed at 0 per cent, of
the entire cotton crop. The difference
between the cost of a bale sent to Fall
River, Mass., and a bale sent to |Oo-
1 umbus, Ga., la f8 07, the former cost
ing $51 71 and the latter $43 65. This
makes a tax of 18 per ceut, which Fall
River pays in competing with Colum
bus. It is estimated that if the plaa-
ters could manufacture their cotton
near home they would save $50,000,-
000 tn transportation. TL prominent
manufacturer in Mississippi says that
the State can manufacture cotton at
a cost of from 15 to 20 per cent, cheap
er than it can be made In New Eng
land. Iu Georgia new mills are ex
empt from taxation for ten years, and
this exemption Is extending into
other Staten. The water power of the
manufacturing sections of the South is
very fine, and the hours of labor are
lOuger in the course of a year, while
tbe saving of beat and light la consid
erable. As yet the South manufac
tures woly coarser goods, yarns, duck©,
unbleached muslins, eheetiug. shirt
ings, oanaburgs, Jeans. Ac., bnt the
time Is not distant when It will oonss
to maks prints also, cambrics, laces,
and all tbe finer qualities of staple
goods.

I© demonstrated that It doe© not re
quire strong adds to separate the
phospluaic and carbonic acids from
tbe lime contained lo the tooth sub-
stance. Even water that contains car
bonic acid will dissolve the calcareous
salts, and water alone will dissolve tbe
toctii In tlmo. A lady who bad two
sets of artificial teeth made placed one
eet in water uutil the other set was
worn out. After seven years they
wore taken from the water and found
to bo a© much corroded as the set she
had worn In her mouth. All mineral
as well as vegetq^ acids act prompt

acetic, citric and malic add will cor
rode the enamel so that you may
ecrape it away with the finger-nail.
Acid tartrate of lime, having a greater
affinity for tbe lime of the teeth than
for Its own base, will rapidly destroy
the enamel. Grapee In forty-eight
hours will render enamel of a chalky
consistence. V' getable substances
are inert till fermentation takes place
and acetic acid Is formed. Sugar has
no deleterious effect, except In a state
of acetous fennenta'.loo. Animal sul •

What a truth Job uttered when he
©aid, ‘My days are swifter than a poet;
they flee away.” aud bow truly this
may be ©aid of us all. Aud for all we
go swiftly, we shall never paaa this
way ©gain. The past Is like a tale that
is told, for a ©Ingle moment* when It to
gone, can never be recal!ed< The
wheel© of time roll rapidly, ever speed
ing ou onward toward tbe vast be*
yond. Like a meteor’© flight we glide
past the days, the monthe, the years.
A misspent day Is so muoh lost of Ilfs*
with all it might be worth in heavenly
gain. The whole of life misspent
makes the certain loss Of certain Joy.
In view of this, how sad it is that
many fall to see the worth of time till
late In life, and then exclaim, “Oh, give
me back my early days." Let ua pon
der well the great value of time, and
gather the treasures from each golden
hour as it files, though their full worth
may uot be known till we reach the
other shore.
