The young invader was the fust prisoner out. lie had got through with his tears, wiped his nose all he vvautt d to, and it could be plainly ?.. en that he meant to make a lic ence. 'Now, Mr. Joy,' began the court, please do your swearing in a gentle tone of voice, and do not get cxeitcd and break your pace. You will also stick to the truth and nothing hut. th e truth.' The old man looked red in fiie face as he took the stand and related the facts in the case. He described his emotions as he looked from the win dow and saw his farm being invaded, and hesworo that tho boy before him was none other than 4the identical thief. 'Bijcr,' began the boy as he braced up, 'ye know ye found me asleep in a havement, and that ye. brought me here 'cause I hilled at yer bald head ! Don't go for to swearing to a lie, Bijcr !' 'B-boy !' began the old man, but his honor interrupted: Mr. Joy, have you any other wit nesses?' 'No, sir; but my word?' 'Your word, Mr. Joy, is solid as far as it goes, but justice must he done in this case, The lad's testi mony must balance yours. You have no witnesses?not even til3 onions yon claim he stole.' 'Smell of his hands!' shouted Bijah 'smell of his paws !' The boy had not been idle during the few minutes 'he occupied a cell. He promptly held up his handy, an d the court l ent over and snuffed a', them. It was a moment of intense interest, but the boy was calm and confident 'Mr. Joy,' remarked bis honor as he settled back in his chair, 'this court detects a faint smell of halibut, pitch, orange peel and cigar stub, but not the slightest traco of onions, I must discharge him. Let this bo a great moral lesson to you never to put up a job on a young and innocent child again. Had my noso been less 4 discriminating, er had I not known you so well, this hoy would have gone to prison and hin whole life.been blasted !' Bijah fell back. Tulling a beauti ful half-dollar from1 his pocket ho whispered to the boy: 'Sonny, yon good little angel,couio into the corridor just a minute while I beg your i ardon !' 'Vo can't souny mo can't play no bootjack over this inn or cent !' sneered the lad, and he npido a dive through the crowd tor the door. Words of Wisdom. Unreasonable ha te is the road to error, A woman who wants a charitable heart wauls a pure heart. Many arc willing enough' to wound who are yet afraid to strike. Sonn; mourn more tho shame which sin brings, than the sin which bring-i the shame. Wo esteem others Hot so in ?ich for what, they m"e Worth, as for what they are worth to us. The mind has a certain vegetative power, which cannot be wholly idle. If it is not laid out and cultivated into a beautiful garden it will of itself shoot up weeds or flowers of a wild growth. Talent is power;tact is skill. Tal ent makes a man respectable; taet makes him respected. Talent eon vinces; tact converts. Talent com mands; tact is obeyed. Talent is something; tact is everything. It is astonishing how much one without money may give. A kind word, a helping hand?the warm sympathy that rejoices with those who weep. No man is so poor, no woman is so poor, as not to bo able to con tribute largely to the happiness ot those about them. We have nothing of our own but our will; all tho rest is not ours. Sick ness deprives us of health au 1 lifjjl riches are taken away from us by violence; the talents of the mint! de pend on the disposition of the body; the only thing that is truly our own is our will. It was finely said by Socrates that the shortest and most direct road to popularity is "for a ninu to bo tho same that the wishes to be taken for." People are ogregiously mistaken if they* think they can ever attain to popularity by hypocrisy by more out side appearances, and by disguising not only their language but their looks. True popularity takes deep root, and spreads itself wide; but tho false falls away liku blossoms; for nothing that is false- can bo lasting The Hawkey's Little Joke.? The other day the President and his Cabinet sat down to a little private lunch, and the servant in attendance, glancing from the President to the half dozen Cabinet ofliccrs, remark ed ? 'An' it minds me ov the ould elec thoral times, intirely.' 'What does?' asked the Secietary of tho Navy. 'This bit of a dinner and the coin panv,' replied tho servitor. 'And why?' asked the Secretary of Stti to. 'Because, thin,' replied the faith ful servitor, 'there's seven to ate.' And tho Secretary of the Interior said that stumped him, while the Postmaster-General made a quotation from the 'Life and Times of the Governor of North Carolina.'

Probably ho hasn't enjoyed a proper amount of rest at any one time for thrco years. His brain goes like a saw mill, all tho time, and he says ho has no time to sleep. He experiment-) and works day and night without cessation. When bed-time comes Edison is as oblivious of the faot as one side of the present Potter Congress is of the exis tence of Mr. Cronin, from Oregon. The great inventor digs away at his work until nature is completely ex hausted, and then he tumbles into bed for two or three hours of sleep. This may he at morning, noon, or night, just as the fit of weariness seizes him. Not one man in ten could do it and live. But Edison has a constitution like the "one-boss shay" of popular legend, and lie don't break down . Ho is wonderfully tenacious, alike of health and ideas.??Chuuvjo Tribune. - -_ ?BP ? -C-.?- ?

That city is very near the line of to tality, and enjoys tile advantage of usually clear w eather at that time of the year. On January 11, 1880, another total eclipse will be visible on the^v'estern shore of the American continent, near Monery in California; but it w ill he total then for only about forty seconds, 'ami that only just be fore sunset.

Next!?An intelligent farmer of Des Moines county has invented a henophone, modolled on the principle of the telephone, by which one old hen occupying a central office in the henery sits on all the nests about the establishment, leaving other fowls free to lay eggs, and cackle. As soon as a new nest contains the full complement of eggs, it is connected with the central office by a coppor wire, ami the business is settled. The only trouble with the machine isth.it it sits so hard it hatches out the por celain nest eggs with the others, so that one chick in every nest is born with glass eyes, and the farmer has to buy a id train- a dog to lead it around.
