Importanre of Cleansing Bed# and
PUUws.
Two little children wen* almost simul
taneously attacked with canker rash in
its worst form. There had been no
cases in the vicinity for years, and they
had leen kept entirely at home for the
whole winter, so there was no possi
bility of their having taken tlte disease
from any outside exposure to contagion.
It was a mysterious Providence, the
clergyman said, when he was called to
perform the burial service. Afterward
it was ascertained that the mother had
bought a feather bed ola peddier a few
weeks before and used it on the trundle
bed for her litt e ones to make them a
c-mfortable nest for the cold weather.
Upon further investigation it was dis
covered that the peddler had nought it
at a hou.#> some twenty-fire miles away,
and that two children had been sick and
died of scar; ttina upon the same bed the
ye .r before. The led had been laid
away in an open chamber till the family
sold out their place to move away, and
they #oid the bed to a traveling pedder
for a trifling sum. thus distributing
sickness and death througti a distant
town, for the disease spread in every
direction and became a regu;.ar epi
demic. Had that )ml. immediately
after the death of the first children, been
washed thoroughly and soaked in water
with either a little carbolic acid or
spirits of ammonia added to it, and then
driei in the sun, it would have been safe
to he used by any ono; but, a it wa*.
it carried grief and desolation into many
households. Of course, it was not a pro
meditated wrong; it was a case of igno
rance or careiessness.
Diphtheria has been conveyed by use
ing beils in the same manner, and. if in
dividuals wouid only consider for a
minute how much suffering might he
proven*., d. they would be more carefui.
There is never an effect without a cause,
hut perhaps the cause may not be dis
covered tiii too late to prevent the evil.
It is very little labor to cleanse pillows
and bed*, if done in a proper manner,
and common sense will show that it is
advisable to have it done often, even if
no sick person has lain upon them. A
day's exposure to the hot sun—turning
over and shaking them up often—is a
great benefit, and makes them sweeter as
well as lighter. An occasional washing
is a sure purifW. Carbolic acid is a
powerful disinfectant, and it sweetens
beds which will accumulate a disagree
able odor if not thoroughly cleansed and
aired. Pillows can be washed without
ripping So that they will be delightfully
renovated. Uttscald ing suds in a wash
tub to soas thein well, and then pas*
through rinsing waters till the water is
not eo.ored at all. This is all that is re
quired unless they really smell badly.
In that case, either carbolic acid or
spirits of arumouia should be added to
the rins n water. Let them drain well
and then hang them where they will ge
air and sunshine.— Country Gentleman
United State* Pensions.
Since the passage of the arrears of
pensions act fifty* thousand rejected
(■(aims have been presented again to the
Commissioner of Pensions. These, with
the number of unsettled claim* no** be
fore the bureau, swell the total numlier
to more than one hundred and eighty
thousand. The number of claims re
ceived ea-h week since the passage of
the act referred to, average twenty-five
hundred, which is double the number
that the bureau can consider under its
present system of doing business. The
commissioner receives about twenty
two hundred letters daily from in
quiring pensioners, and rver twelve
hundred letters sent out daily in reply.
The pensioners now on the roll number
about ope hundred and thirty-five thou
sand, the list having been increased
more than ten thousand during the
year by the settlement of claims of pen
sions of the war of I&I2. Commissioner
Bentley has a plan to radically change
the pr.-Srnt system of paying pensions.
It is to divide the United States into di*
ricts, which shall be under the contro
of a commission consisting of a surgeon
and a skilled pension clerk, the duties
of whom shall lie to attend at the prin
cipal places in the district and hearevi
denceun application for pensions. An
ingenious system of blanks ha* been'sug
gested for communicating with the cen
tral office. The benefits of this plan
would be to subject old claims to a more
rigid "Nomination, and to protect the
govei itfliV-nt and the pension fund
agaim-i fraudulent and unmeritorious
claim-, and at the same time to greatly
reduce the of the payment of pen
sion- The first pension law of wnieh
there i any knowledge in England was
the a. t ol 1592, which authorised the
paynv nt of a weekly sum from every
parish for the relief of the sick, hurt or
maimed soildcrs or marines. Commis
sioner Bently goes back to the original
principle, and relegates the question of
the right to pensions to the people of the
parish. The witnesses should all be
neighbors of the claimants. — Steuben

Mr. .T. M. HalMtt, of Tike county,
gives u# the fact.# of a very interesting
"auld lang syne" affair, with a senti
mental terminus of recent date, .lust
about the time that war was declared
with Mexico, • young man named Henry
1-miring, and a voting ncigltltoring lady.
Mi## Vena Waldron, became engaged.
When the trumpet of war sounded,
young, fiery, impetuous Uniting, eon
eeiving it to be a dutv owisi to hiscoun
try. hade hi# atlianccd good-live. and bo
came a soldier. I'ltey were devoted to
each other, and when the young man
left the young lady vowed that site would
never marry if he did not return. After
the fall of the City of Mexico, a man
named Kaitdt Mitchell approached 1.-uir
ing and stated that he had left I'ike
county subst qttciit to I .miring'# depar
tutv, and that Miss Waldron had died a
few days In-ftuv his departure. The
young soldier was desperate, and when
the troop*, "came home with glad and
gallant tread," he vva# not with them
Having, in a moment, been transformed
front an ardent soldier t- a reckless man,
he left the army, and embarking went to
Cuba. Front there he went to Spain, to
Austria, Prussia and to France. When
the late Franco- Prussian wat broke out
he entered the French ranks, and at Met/
was almost fatally wounded. When he
recovered the war \ a# ov cr, and remain
ing in France Until theKu—ian war with
Turkey he repaired to Kuv-ia and ioine.l
the army though an old man With a
detachment ot troops, while attempting
to cross the Ibutuhc. he was shot through
the lung# For .1 long time he langui-hol
in a hospital and finally recovered. Al
ter the Mexican war, and when Ralph
Mitchell returrusl to Pike county, he
called on Miss Waldron, *y mpathetieally

When she regained oonselousmw* a high
fever sprang up. and for month# -he
losvil on a bed, earing nothing for her
surroundings, and dreading recovcty
worse titan death After a v :ong illness
site recovered. Mitchell, who was very
attentive to her in her sickness, called
frequently in health. One night Mitchell
told her of his devotion. "We have
known (welt other from ehildbHHl." lie
said; "we have lived a# neighbor#
You know me; my lather and mother.
I love vou witlt a i• jtlt only known to
a burning #oul. tN id you l< my wife;'
" Mr. Mitchell." the girl replied. " 1 re

1 will tantalise you the more. Insuring
is not dead. My love for you caused me
to deceive him. I told hint that you
were dead, and wit.: despair he left the
army. I did this through love." An
other long illness followed this. When
a strong constitution again came to the
res' ue ot a life, Mitchell had married a
neighboring girl. Years went on, as
years inevitably do. The girl's father
and mother sank beneath thee av. Toe
girl lived witlt her brother. The civil
war came ou. The girl'* brother'• chil
dren grew up and married. Not the
git l. tor she was advanced in years. In
a -mall house th< y lived. There a - cre
vines in the yard, and among them the
once beautilul woman sat and mused.
Summer and winter came and went.
Th* love-killed woman had read every
book in the neighborhood. Tlte biro#
sang, and the rabitt sprang from his
damn, snow-sprinkled bed. But old
songs and old memories still swept the
harp-strings of a heart once young and
anient. One evening last week Miss
Waldron sat Sin on g the vines in the
yard. Her brother was gone totbemjll.
An old man. with long beard and with
tottering walk, stopped at the gate and
asked if Mr. Waldron lived there. Miss
Waldron invited him in. Heapproached,
and when he had reached the vine
covered porch, sank down on a chair,
the one Miss Waldron had vacated, and
buried his face in his wrinkled hands.
"Old gentleman," Misa Waldron said,
"can Ido anything for you? You look
o weary." " That voice!" the man ex
claimed. " Vena, don't you know me"
lienry ':as—'• A shriek, and the old
man stooped and lifted the form ol an
old woman from the floor. When the
brother had returned a couple of old
lovers walked out into the beautiful
peace of night. Tlte party walked along
the ruad, each hand clasped within the
other. Opening a gate thev turned into
an inelosure. They stopped at a mound.
"Bend over. Ilenry. ami see if you can
read the inscription." Henry leaned
over, and straightened up, said . If is
the grave of Ralph Mitchell." In a lit -
tie tog church not lar away a pleased
minister pronounced Henry and Vena
man anil wife. N iture says that their
lives will continue hut a few years
longer; true sentiment say- the few
years wilt lie liappy ones.— Little Rock
Gazette.
.4 tiirl Tlirow 11 into a Hell.
Mr. Jacob Fike, a wealthy farmer,
lives on what is know as the Barker
farm. t< n miles north of Marietta. Ohio,
on the Ohio river. His house is a large
brick structure, well calculated toattrart
the attention of tramps and idler*. One
afternoon recently Mr. Fike and his
wife came to Marietta, leaving their
daughter Mary, aged sixteen, at home
alone, her two brothers being at work
in a distant field. About throe o'clock
P. M. Mis* Fike went to the well for a
bucket of water. Tim well i> under the
roof of a side porrli to the house, and
ustas the young lady stepped put of the
door two tramps accosted her and asked
her for something to eat.
She was alarmed at the rough manner
of the request, hut with great coolness
told them she had no time to wait on
them. She tlien proceeded to lower the
bucket into the well. One of the men
grasped the lady by the arm and in n
threatening manner said they would
have something to cat or she would suf
fer for it. Now thoroughly alarmed th
poor girl struggled to get free, but the
rascal said something to hi* confederate
and each one grasping her by an arm
and her dress, they crowded her through
the box of the well and down through
the opening into the darkness*, and then
fled with all haste.
In her extremity the victim grasped
the rope, and there lieing some tw< nty
five feet vet on the windlass, this ran
rapidly off and with a sudden jerk left
suspended twentv-tive p-et from the top
and thirtv-flve feet above the water.
The sudden jerk of the rope, while it al
most tore ,lie girl's arms off, probably
saved her life, for by some strange twist
it threw one or two coils of the rope
around her ankle, and this enabled her
to relieve the terrible strain on her arms
until she could tind a foothold in the
wall. In this terrible position the brave
giri stood for one hour and fifteen min
utes, not daring to cry out at first for
fear her would-be murderers would
know that she was still alive and finish
their fiendish work.
At last she heard the joyful sounds of
the harking of her favorite dog an he ac
companied her brothers home from the
field, and she e.* lied loudly for help.
After some little delay a rope was low
ered wi'h a noose knot, into which Miss
Fike willingly sank, and she was drawn
to the surface.
Tps and Down* in Life.
We have in our mind, says an ex
change, a brilliant and cultivated young
lawyer who started in life with twenty
thousand dollars and a refined, beautiful
and accomplished wife. He is now a
sort of tactotum in a carpet manufac
tory, running hither and thither at the
beck and call of those whom he secretly
despises, doing heavy tasks far beyond
his strength, yet eager and anxious to
please, lest the slender support which
Fie derives from his menial work be cut
off. We know a gentleman who was a
bank president ten years ago and owned
his carriage, who now dors copying in
an insurance office at thirty-five dollars
a montli, supporting —God knows how
—a wife ana five children on it. We
know of a gentleman who once held a
high office jn a Western State, who so
licited work at cleaning out offices and
building fires. Nor have the changed
times les* bitterly affected woman. Jen
in Collins, of Boston, famed for her
omployment bureau and workingmen's
heme, says in her last report "Many
kind ladies who hired their servants of j
me in the past years, have been obliged
toapp.v for employment themselves of
late. 1 sent a lady to a hotel —as a
iiousekeeper, and the most humiliating
part of it was. that her room was in the
attic with two of her former servants."
i We ar.e constantly learning of women ot
| education and refinement, formerly
wealthy, who are engaged as seams
tresses, nurses and housekeepers ; and in
one ease we even know of a lady, who
would be at home in any parlor in the
land among educated people, who
served as a cook in a hotel for months.

Wonder* of >e* /.r*land.
A la.lv correspondent, writing from
Auckland. New /--aland, say# ;
)Vc fiave hulling springs, or "gey
sers," which, if once #een. the gevsers of
Iceland will ever after #e--nt like the
ebullition* of a retractorT teapot; anil
vast springs of oil anil asphaituui. or
ta- . more extensive than any other* in
the world. Tree* are here more gigantic
than those otCalifornia. Ail this, added
to a glorious semi-tropical climate, wide
stretches of amazingly fertile soil, vast
herd* of cattle, sheep and bom-*, grazing
the entire year on the nutritious English
gra.*s-s; lovely cities springing up around
the picturesque harbors; mountain* of
ore of every precious and u-cfu! metal;
more coal than <ir-*t Britain, with tin
most perfect < t free governments, it
would sis-m that there is nothing more
to le wished for.
It I could only picture to you the
wonder* of thisstrange country it would
seem like a tale of fairy land. There is
no native tn-<- or shruh in all these
islands that is n>t an evirgreen. stiii
there are none of our evergreens of
America, no cedar* or pint** or spruce,
no ttiapie* or lieechc* or hirchcs: but
the hoys must not rejoice over the ab
sence of the latter as we have trees pro
ducing thecutest little switches ever you
saw, and not so merciful a* the pro
verbial birch as it is alm<>• impossible
to break them. One leels at first as it
in the moon or some remote planet on
the first walk out to look at the nature
of New Zealand.
There is an endless variety of trees
and plants :uid flowers, but not one that
you ever saw or even heard of la-fore,
with name* :ind forms most queer and
grotesque. Th're are no snakes or rep
tiles o! any kind, and none of the insect*
tliat I ever saw before; there are no
wild animals except a little rat (it might
he called a large wood mouse). No fowl
iarg'-r than a wood lien, and all the birds
are entirely new to me. I will not men
tion tile nam- * this time, but shall go
into natural history at some future time.
The Britisli settlers are introducing
all tlie* wild and domestic annuals of
Europe ami America, and without ex
ception they all thrive. In a few year*
we may expect to see the forest stocked
with all the game of other countries,
with none of the dangerous or trouble-
Some animals, reptiles or insect*.
I saw a number of men digging in a
liarren spot of ground a few days since,
and, on investigating, I found that they
were digging for " kauri gun," which
is found several feet below the surface
in large masses more than a man could
lift. The substance looked (when broken
ofn a little like resin, and how it catue
buried in the earth wa*a mystery tome,
but my companion, who is a young lady.
" to the manner born." told me all about
it. Ages ago this barren land was cov
ered with kauri trees, and a kind of
borer attacked the roots of the trees,
making incisions through which the
gum exuded (as the turpentine does
from the pine tree), and it foreed its
way into cavities formed by insects or
Fmall animals in the soil and there be
< a tie hard; the trees died, and the
pecies is nearly extinct at present.
Where these kauri forests stood the land
I,- -ame barren, and no other trees grow;
so now. after a thousand years or more,
the emigrants make a good living dig
ging tlii* wonderful kauri gum; its al
most indestructible rhnracter makes It
exceedingly valuable.
Grapevines in I'ots.
Speaking on the culture of grapevines
in pots as practiced in England and
other European countries, the Rural
New Yorker saya: "In this country
grape culture in pots ia still in its in
fancy; but as a healthy, well-trained
plant is a combination of both the orna
mental and the useful, anybody who has
the requisite facilities will he well repaid
for the extra trouble this culture may
occasion. The plants can he most easily
grown from cuttings or single buds,
winch should be set in small pots in
March, and if placed in a green-house or
hot-bed and given proper attention,
nearly all will take root. Larger pots
should be given as the growth of the
plants may require. Well-grown speci
mens may bear fruit the second year.
The vines can also bcEraiscdJfrom seeds,
and thus, perhaps, give rise to new and
valuable varieties. The present is a
good time to plant seeds of grapes for
cultivation in pots. If planted as soon
as taken from the grapes, many will
germinate in three or four weeks. Sow
the seeds in boxes, and.of the young
plar ts select only the strongest, which
should be transferred to small pots, and
trained to a stake By pinching back,
careful training, and repotting into
larger pots and richer soil, when neces
sary. we may in three years be rewarded
by a beautiful plant loaded with fruit."

Jokes from Ilarper'* "Drawer."
This shocking specimen of diacour
twy occurred recently in North Adam*,
one of the ailing manufacturing towns
in Mas*a-husett*. A colporteur entered
one of the manufactories, and askd the
gv*nth*man who seemed to be the bead
man of the concern, " May I leave sonic
tract*?"
"Certainly." replied the old gentle -
' man; "but please to leave them with
the heels toward the door."
The Drawer has the honor to present
' to the lovers of evevsaive humor the fol
low ing. which is the t went y-tirst anecd->tc
in Tavlor's It'll <m<l M\rth. cditcil by
Mr. W.Ciirew llaxiitt:
A country fellow, who had not
walked much in street.* that were paved,
itune to London, where a dog came sud
denly out of a hou**, and furiously ran
out at him. The fellow stooped to take
Up a stone to cast at t''c dog, and find

ground, quoth ho: "What a BtlllH
country am I in. where the people tie
up the stones and let the dog loose!"
This t .mi'* to us its a fresli nnrcdotn
of Father Taylor, the famous sailor
pr<xuliT of lloston. At one of his
|.rayir-mo<tinsp an opulent nicrvliant
innif into honor themwting. He spoke
n few words evtoliitiji tiie kindness of
th* Boeton people in aiding Mr. Taylor
to liuiid his < lu*pel. and their considera
tion of poor sailors. As msm as the
great man had finished, Faylot
quietly asked: "I# there any other old
sinner from Uj> town who would like to
say a word before we go on with the
meeting?" So other old sinner re
sponded.
The following pi want thing in the
way of definition occurred a few days
since in one of the public schools of a
city in Massachusetts. A member of
the committee, Captain • W:l * visit
ing the school, ami the class having
read from Webster's address at Ply
mouth, the captain asked the class,
" Who was Wefmter?" •
One hoy said " a statesman.' another
" an orator." ...
•• Hut what is a statesman? asked the
captain.
" A man who goes around making
speeches," answered a boy.
"Thai is not quite right." replied the
captain; " I go around sometime* mak
ing speeches, hut I am not a statesman."
A bright little fellow spoke up: "I
know, it is a man who oes around
making g'*>d speeches."
Hidden Hurts.
Mnnv a bfthcgeUi a wrench from lov
ing hands that might account tor the
(Hidden attack of spasms the day after,
or for hours of fretfulnoss that no coax
ing seems to soothe and no medicine ap
pears to reach. Kalis from little per
ambulators while in charge of nurses,
though they leave no outward and visi
ble sign in the shape of cuts or bruises,
may have inflicted something worse by
far than cuts or bruises would have
proven to he. Cases have occurred fre
quently where infants have halt falls of
which nurses have not told, and no
marks from which were visible to the
eye, hut which made the child unaccount
ably fretful tor weeks, until curvature
of tho spine told its frightful story. For
this reason mothers cannot be too care
ful in handling their little ones and look
ing after them personally, rather than
trusting so itiuch to hired nurses. _ A
chihl is a tender thing, and a hurt which
leaves no surface scar may have laid the
foundation of an early death or future
deformity.

Arsenic In Denial Surgery.
Tlie dealh of Mr. tl.trdiner. of New
York, from the inlrodu- iim. by a den
tiat. of arwnlc combined with creosote,
into n hollow tootli to quiti an arliing
nerve, has rise to quite a ttunilwr
of communication* to tlie newspaper,
on Utt* <uue sutyect. Several dentist,
daactibe their ntotle of using arscniein
powder at tlie rate of frotu one-fortieth
to ono-eiglitieth of a grain, in **< like
that of Mr. f iardiner, and consider tlie
application not only innocuous, hut a
wonderful relief to the suffering. Hut
the danger of ttie application is adinit
tHi by at least one of tliern. who say* be
never uses it "but a* a last resort."
On the other baud, another ooriespon
dent writes to a New York paper that
lie nearly l<st liislife from sn application
of arsenic to the nerve cavity; tliat ne
crosis of the bone followed; that the
tissue* <>f the hone attcket were dc
stroyed .and that for two years he suffered
from arsenical poisoning. A writer in
the Hartford (Vtuntttf also st.ati-stli.it the
i-iise of Mr. (iardiner is not the first of
the kind. A gentleman of JanesvilJe,
Wis., known to him. died from exactly
the same treatment. ft i* obvious
from the eases we liavc cited, as well as
from tlie admissions of reputable den
tists. that the administration of arsenic
to quiet or destroy the nerve of a tooth
is a perilous operation at the host, and
In careless hand* may entail the loss
oi life. Under these circumstances it is
questionable, whether the use of arsenic
in such eases ought not to lie prohibited
altogether.— lhiUinwrr Sim.

papers. A painter, who was visiting a
friend at Seeauk. wna standing on a
balcony on the second floor when he

stair*, expecting to hnd him dead; hut
he quickly picked himself up.and seemed
unhurt. When, however, he turned to
address his friends, he could not remem
ber their names. He had forgotten his
own. and. to his utter astonishment, he
also found that he could not recall a
single substantive. He can pronounce
one after the other tiie letter* of which
the name* of his wife nnd daughter are
