    THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG. COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA.
Tin Great Oaterer and Nurse of Used Up
Statesmen,
One of the veterans of Washington
got to goulpinu lately nbont Wormlr-y,
tho Into hotel-keeper. "I know him,''
lio said, "when lio win stownrd of tho
Washington club, which occupied tho
house faoing I.afayetlo squnro whloh U
now used ns tlio headquarters of the
Commissary General of tho army. You
remember tho famous quarrel betweun
(on. Sickles and Key. Well, Key was
shot right in front of tho club house,
and Wormly was tho man who rushed
out and brought him inside. Key was
a member of club, and Wormlcy did
tho best liu could to provent publicity
to tho affair. Secretary Sownrd nfter-wardooctipied'thoclub-housu
ashis ics
idenco. It was in this building that
Alzeroth, tho assassin, nttcmpted tho
Secretary's lifo. In tho war times it
was customary for each cabinet ofliccr
to havo a military guard mound his
house. Tho assassin passed tho guard
saying that ho was tho bearer of some
medicino for Seward who was then
quito ill. lie gained admittanco with
out difficulty, and would havo killed
Soward had it not been that tho sick
man hud had an operation performed
on his throat a few days before and tho
surgeons had placed an iron bandage
around it to keep his head in the proper
position. Beforo At.eroth could ac
complish his purpose ho was beaten off
by liobiiison, the colored valet, who
atterwards received a medal from Con
gress, nnd Margaret JJroadhcad, tho
housekeeper, who is now employed in
tho Treasury department. Wormly
was called in after tho attack, and
nursed Seward until ho recovered. To
return to tho Sickles-Key affair. I havo
heard it stated as a fact that all through
tho war tho band of Sickles' brigado
never played 'The Star Spangled Hau
lier,' out of defcrenco to tho general's
feelings. Ono of Mrs. Lincoln's broth
ers was Capt. Todd, of tho Confedar
ato array. During tho entire war a
correspondence was kept up betwen tho
brother and sister, all of the letters
passing through Wormloy's hands.
When Tad Lincoln was sick" '.ho Piesi
dent sent for Wormloy, and he nursed
tho boy at tho White House. Worm
ley was perhaps tho most famous nurse
of this century. Among tho great men
ho nttended were Daniel Webster, Hen
ry Clay, Stephen A. Douglas, Henry
Wilson, Charles Sumner, and others of
equal prominence in tho history of tho
country. When Lincoln was shot,
Sumner and Zach Chandler sent at
onco for Wormley. lio went to tho
Patcrson house and remained with tko
President until he died. In this con
nection it will bo remembered that sub
sequently Littlelield, tho artist, painted
a picture, 'Tho Deathbed of Lincoln.'
At first some of those present objected
to having Wormley in the picture, al
though ho was ono of the most conspi
cuous figures, and was holding Lin
coln's head in his bands when he
breathed his last. Sumner and Zach
Chandler heard about it and threaten
ed to expose the whnlii matter, and ns
a consequence the objection was with
drawn. The trouble, over that picture
did not end there. It appears that as
soon as Booth fired the fatal shot there
was a cry : 'Is there n phvsician in
the theatre ?' Dr. Charles S'. Taft, of
tho army, happened to be present and
he went at once to the side of the dy
ing President. It was through bis or
ders that Lincoln was removed to the
Peterson house. Taft remained with
Lincoln until bo died. Of course he
expected to be represented in tho pic
ture, and was, but later Surgeon Gen
eral Crane and Taft scratched out and
his own portrait inserted in tho place.
Tho picture as photographed when
first painted, and clearly showed Taft
where Crano now is. In the famous
Grant Greeley campaign you remem
ber that Charles Sumner addressed a
letter advising all colored men to vote
for Greeley. That letter was written
io Wormley, although tho fact has
never been made public before. When
Garfield was shot, Drs. Bliss and
Barnes sent for Wormley, and he sup
plied all the beef tea and other meat
extracts used at tho White House dur
ing that terriblo summer. A statement
has been widely published that Worm
ley's daughter married one of the
French legation. That is not true. His
niece, tho daughter of his brother
Halpli, married Paul Girard, tho first
secretary of the French legation some
years ago, and afterward died in France.
Among tho colored population hero
Wormley was hold in highest esteem.
He had more influence than Fred
Douglass, for tho reason that Douglass
has always bcon suspected of trading
his power with them for his personal
advantage, Wormley, on tho contrary,
studiously avoided the whirlpool of
politics, and devoted himself almost
exclusively to his hotel business, in
which ho amassed a considerable for
tune. Ho entertained no colored guests
nt his house, nnd they never gave him
any trouble by making application for
accommodations.1' Ghicayo Times

Concise Talk.
Few men understand how to ex
press their ideas forcibly and concisely.
If one has plenty of time at his dispos
al one can make himself understood,
but ton often the number of words
used is out of all proportion to the
ideas, ihe peculiarly nervous temper
ament, and the limited vocabulary of
most Americans lead them to expiess
themselves in a vague, verhose fashion,
They are too long getting at the pith
of what they ato talking about: and
when they reach this point their ina
bility to remember tho two or three
words, that would put their thoughts
in a compact, intelligible, torm, com
pels them to use ten where one, wero
it tho right one, would have been sutll
cient. Not infrequently this vague
ness is a cloak assumed for tho mo
nient to cover imperfect information or
ill-deliued ideas regarding the subject
that is being discussed. This falso
pride which shows itselt in n desire to
etem to know something about that of
which one knows little or nothing, is
the causo of much loose, meaningless
talk which may hcrve its purpose tem
porarily, but which more often leaves
a listener in such a statu of uncertainty
that ho is as likely ns not to attribute
his doubts to his own dullness. Hon
esty, simplicity and exactness are nut
qualities that are conspicuous in tho
conversation of most men wo meet.
For packing eggs there is nothing
better than tho regular egg case so
generally used. When it is desirable
to pack eggs in the house for setting,
they should bo kept on the little cud in
brati. Boxes should be mailo with
shelves of boards provided with holes
large enough to hold the eggs.

I'iiist. Wo havo hold from tho be
ginning that most of tho common ail
ments nro caused primarily by kldnoy
and liver disorders, not primarily by
bad blood s that bad blood is caused
by temporary or chronic derange
ment of tho kidneys nnd liver,
and that by restoring theso blood
purifying organs to health, wu
could euro most of tho common nil
mcnts. Other practictioners, however,
havo held that oxtremo kidney and
liver disorders were incurable. We,
havo proved to tho contrary in thous
ands of cases.

Second. Tho kidneys and liver aro
tho sewers of the system, nnd unloss
they are kept in perfect working order
no amount of public sanitation can pre
vent epidemics raging among tho pco
pie. Tho prudent man, in the winter
and spring, will fortify tho system
against any such possibility. Dr. Koch,
tho celebrated German Scientist and
physician, says, for instance, that chol
era will havo but little effect among
those who keep the digestive organs
nnd the kidneys nnd liver in healthful
operation. Warner's Safe Kemedies
are the best scientific curatives and
preventatives, and should be used now
as a safeguard against any futuro
scourge.

Sixth. Special inquiry among hun
dreds of our ohle-t pati-nts results in
unequivocal testimony tint tin' cures
wrought six, five, four and three jears
ago, were permanent. Ana most oi
these patients were pronounced men
rable when thev began Warner's Safe
Remedies.
Read afeto of thousands of testimo
nials, REV. ANDREW .1. GRAHAM,
Grand Island, Neb., was cured of
Hright's Disease in 1881, by War
ner's Safo Cure, and in 1883 bo re
ported that all local trouble had dis
appeared. ELDER JAMES S. PRESCOTT, box
2G2. Cleveland, Ohio, in 1878 was
pronounced incurablo ot Hright's
diseae j in 1879 he began the use
of Warner's Safe Cure, and in 1884
he leported ''health never better ;
just past 80th yoar ; am an enthu
siast for Wamer'sSafo Cure."
CHARLES D. CRANDELL, P. M.,
Rig Hapids. Mich., was sick four
years from Kidney Disease, in 1884
"he reported "tho benefits derived
from Warner's Safe Cure, four years
ago, wero permanent ; havo had no
troublo since."
REV. E. D. HOPKINS, Dodgo's Cor
ners, Wis., suffered for many years
with Kidney disorder, and was con
fined in an Asylum j ho began using
Warner's Safo Cure in 1882, and
December 15, 1884, he reported him
self sound and well.
C. F. H. HASKELL, Locating Enoi-
neer of tho H. C. R. & N. It. R. Da
kota, in 1883 reported that his wifo
was utterly prostrated with female
difficulties nnd at times was out of
her head ; finding no relief from
Physicians, was restored to health by
vVnrner's Safe Cure, and Nov., 1884,
Mr, II. wrote "my wife has never
seeu tho slightest letum of her difti
culty,"
Seventh. It is a source of great
'ratification to us that Warner's Safe
Remedies havo been permanently bene
ficial to so many sufferers. Hhisper-
manena of power over atsease gives
them the most exalted rank, and in
thii particular they have no equal.

Bheep Husbandry.
During tho last three- or four years
in ices of wool have been so low that
farmers havo become dissatisfied with
sheep farming, nnd have ditermined to
give up this hranch ot their busiuess,
Some havo already done this, and oth
ers aio trying to sell their sheep upon
a depressed market, and it is probably
truu that the flocks of a majority of
thoso who aro not trying to sell receive
Inr less careful attention than those
flocks would leceivo were wool worth
from forty to fifty cents per pound
Thus, flocks which might bo made to
yield a fair, direct profit with careful
keeping, become unprotitnhlo througl
neglect. It is quite natural in almost
overy business to givo tho greater caro
and attention to thai branch which
brings in the greater immedinto re
turns, but it may not be always wise to
do so.
It will bo found that, taking anv
period of ten successive years, sheep
keeping has averaged as well in appro
eiablo roturus us has almost any other
branch of farming, and there seems to
bo no good reason for supposing that
this will not be truo of the next ton
yeaiu. Tho wool market is depressed
but so is the wheat market. Potatoes
form a largo pait of tho farm products
of this country, and farmers think tho
prico of potatoes too low to pay, Oats
and hay aro selling for prices below
those which farmers feel that they
ought to got for theso staples , and
there aro other farm products whioh
aro selling at figures whioh producers
aro ready to declare to yield a living
profit. Vet it would bo folly to refuse
to plant potatoes or corn or sow oats or
wheat this year bcoauso prices aro low.
In farming operations it is especially
truu that it is tho general nverago re
sults which must dccido as to the pro
fitableness of any given crop, and not
tho result of ono or two years.
It may bo well to look carofnlly into
tho idieep-growinir branch of farming
beforo deciding that it is unprofitable).
Kvcn when mutton is supposed to havo
comparatively little value and that
place can scarcely bo found where
sheep-keeping forms but ono of soveral
branches of work on tho farm fair
consideration of all tho advantages
arising from sheep husbandry will
doubtless convinco the fanner that "tho
hoof of tho sheep is golden still." Lib
eral estimates phiuu the cost of keep
ing Bheep nt $2 per head per year. At
current rates fair fleeces will average
about 82 eacli when weaned. If it bo
assumed that tho number of lambs car
ried safely through weaning bo equal
to 50 per cent, of the number of sheep
in tho flock, the direct annual Incomo
will bo 83 each for tho sheep kept, or
SI per head profit. To this should bo
added tho profit which conieJ from tho
conversion of tho forage of tho faun,
tho brush an weeds, tho grain and
oots, into rich manure and into mar
ketable mutton nnd wool. Tho exact
aluo of tho work done by the sheep in
keeping fence rows nnd other places
tree Irom weed", uramliles and urusn,
cannot bo easily calculated, nor can
that of their services in spreading neb
fertilizing material evenly over tho
land j but these all have a practical
and by no means small value, which
hould bo considered in counting tho
incomo from sheep liusbmdry. I'ilts

Swine Kiising.
Tho results which havo attended tho
better housing, more caroful breeding
and higher feeding of pigs, in compara
tively recent years, have convinced
most people ibot any rickety structure
is not sufficient even for tho accommo
dation of swine. For many years
country people regarded tho pig as tho
dirtiest and least to ue careu tor, in ine
way of housing, of all the Animals in
their possession, and treated it accord
ingly, f rotmwy lew animais are icss
fastidious about tho source from which
their food comes than tho common pig;
but if properly nttended to the natural
nanus OI ine pig utu uiuru e.icuiii.v man
was formerly supposed. I ho pig-stye

cleanest maimer possiblo s the food re
gularly and judiciously supplied, and

The Tribune cD Farmer says :
llofs aro not protected from the cold
by coatings of hair, tine and thick, like
other animals, and are therefore very
stiscentiblo to ecvero winter weathor.
To make pork-raising profitable, there
should be a daily increase in weight,
from the suckling to mature Bwine,
and this may easily bo done, yet there
aro farmers who feed plentifully of corn
all winter, and their hogs baiely come
out in spung as'lu-avy as they were in
the fall. They aie fed in thu snow
and allowed to iel in the tViiiif cor
ners or open sheds, and shivi r of! as
much flesh every day as the grain
makes.
Now wu need not go into details in
regard to this matter, for every fanner
knows, from both humanity and mo
tives ot profit, that a good, warm pig-
stye, and plenty ot clean straw tor
bedding pays iiouoio uie expense re
quired to provido them. A well-bred
fall pig, cared for as ho should be dur
ing winter, may bo mado to dress from
wo to three hundred pounus ai ten
months old, while one unprotected
would not reach more than half the
amount, at the samo time consuming
an equal amount of corn.
If they do not gain in winter tho
feed is virtually lost, and the hwine is
in worso condition than in fall, be
cause stunted, and half of the summer
passes beforo thev obtain a thriving
condition.
