RENOVATE YOUR
FEATHERS
T HE undersi g ned offers to the citizens of Get.
tysburg and vicinity a rare chance to avail
themselves of the unparallel benefits of this un
rivalled
Feather lireuing and Renovating Machine,
The most successful patent of the kind ever offer
ed to the public. And we venture the prediction
that It never will be excelled, for It roves to be
exactly what all conditions andqualltlesof Fcath
ers, from entirely new to old and much worn,
need to render them as perfect maga quality am
condition will admit of their being made.
The Ckansini, is Done Entirely by Steam.
No fire wining near the Feathers, consequently
no possibility of burning. scorching, or otherwise
juring them. By this process aII moths are de.
stroyed and removed, the Feathers cleansed. the
fibres relieved from their matted position, giving
a bed an astonishing Inn:ease In bulk, often more
than one-half ; also removing all disagreeabki
scent which is so common to new as well as old
Feathers. In fact giving the appearance and es
sential qualities of New Featakers, and reliev
ing them from all liability to moths by the remov
al of all gummy or glutinous matter from the
quill. Our facilities are such, that by abort no
tice, we can take and return beds the same day,
well dressed and ready for Immediate use.
We warrant ' entire utisfaction or make no
charge. All persons, especially ladles., are invited
to call and see the machine In operation, at Pax
ton's storeroom, on Baltimore street, and judge
for themselves.
SO - Feathers called fur and returned In town
without extra share. J. FLETCHER.

my one who is disposed to try a laugh,
will do well to read on.
John Jackson was a very industrious,
hard working man, of twenty-three years.
Being the eldest child, and only son, he
had always remained at home, assisting
his father upon the farm. John was much
respected by every one in the neighbor
hood and many a bright eyed girl had
secretly thought she would like to change
he., name to Mrs. John Jackson. But
Jean was no "ladies' man." The fact
was, John was very bashful. He would
rather hoe potatoes all day, than undergo
the ceremony of an introduction to a young
lady. Not that John disliked the dear
creatures—far from it. We believe that
he, in common with all bashful well mean
ing men, entertained the very highest re
speot and admiration for them. And this,
miioubt, was the principal cause of his
lestifnluess. Be felt that they were su
pei.oar Whigs, and that he was unworthy
to associate with them upon terms of
equality. But we cannot stop tomoralize.
Nancy Clark was the daughter of a re
spectable farmer, whoselsrulsadjoined the
Jackson farm. Nancy was a pretty, saucy
little wench, and she liked John Jackson.
When they' were children the'' , attended
the seine wheel, and be was few years her
.senior, was usually her companion in the
el -4 1'1W" disputes that arose and her cam
paaion in going and returning. At last,
John became so much of a young man as
to be kept „from school, as she had been in
pima: 401111 111800venxit tOCc
had been growing in stature, and that he
had been growing out of shape. His feet
antliegs appeared very awkward; he didn't
kn w what, to with his hands; his face
pe Med him, and taken all in all, he was
ir...'med to think he was not more than
half put together.
Now the truth was, John Jackson was
really a tine looking young man, and no
thin,; but his admiration for Nancy could
have suggested any such foolish thoughts
about himself.
As the novelists say, it was a lovely day
in
.August. The heavens were clear,
serelie and beautiful; the trees were laden
with golden fruit, and the beautiful birds
twittered their songs of love in the
branches. Earth—we've slid down to the
earth so often from such lofty flights,
they make our head dizzy we were
about to say that "earth had yielded her
bo - uitiful harvest of a year's grass, and
clear, and honeysuckles, which the noble
yeomanry of Chesterville had garnered
within their storehouse"—but, upon sec
onu thought, have concluded to word it
thus, "The farmers of Chesterville fast
dome haying."
John Jackson's sister had a quilting
that afternoon. His father had gone to
"Keith's Hill" to get some wheat ground,
and John was left to repair some tools, to
be ready to commence mowing the mea
doe grass. Suddenly it occurred to John
th...c if he remained about the house in the
,afe - naoon, he would be called in at tea
time and required to do the honors of the
table. To avoid this, he quietly shoulder
ed nis scythe and stole away to the mea
dow, half a mild distant, fully resolied
the:, he would not leave the meadow until
it wee so dark that ho could not see to
mow, and thus avoid seeing the girls.
grhelneadon - was surrounded on all aides
by a ;thick forest, which effectually shut
out what little breeze there might be stir
ring. The sun poured its rays as thongh
the. little meadow was the focus point
where the heat was concentrated. John
mowed and sweat y — sweat and mowed, un
til he was oliged to sit down and cool off.
Then it occurred to John that if he took
off his pants he might be much more com
fortable. There could be no impropriety
in it for he was entirely, concealed from
obseevation, and there was not the slight
est reason to suppose that he could be seen
by any person.
So 1 1 . ohn stripped off, and with no cover

his neck.

A HISS AT TUX DOOR.
We were standing in the doorway—
' My little wife and I
F Tlie golden sun upon her hair

A small white hand upon my arm,
What could I ask for more
Than the kindly glance of loving eyes
As she klssed me at the door?
I know she fovea with MI her heart
The one who stands beside!
And the years have been so joyou.
Slftde tinit I called her bride!
We'vt had so much of happiness
Pince we met in years before,
But the happiest time of all was
Whin she kbigod me at the door.
Who cares for wealth or land or gold.
Or fame, or matchless power?
It does not give the happiness
Of just one little hour,
With one who loves.me as her Ilte—
She says she "loves me more"—
And I thought she did this morning,
When she lamed me at the door.
At times It seemed that all the world,
With all, its wealth and gold.

And when the cloud' hang grim and dark

To kiss me at the door.

The frost upon her head,

And she goes to Heaven before,
I shall know her when I meet her,
For she'll kiss me at the door.

state of affairs—his father gone—the quilt
ing—and worst of all, the giro! This new
horror sent the blood back canning about
his nbck, and he came to a dead halt.—
The next moment he felt the body of the
cold, clammy monster in contact with his
bare legs, his tail creeping around them in
s sort of oozing way, aft though his snake
ship only meditated a little fun, by way of
tickling John upon the knees.
This was too much forluman endurance.
With a yell, such as a man never utters
save when in mortal terror, poor John
again set forward at break neck pace, and
once more had the pleaeure of seeing the
snake resume his horizontal position,
somewhat after the fashion of a comet.
On, on he flew! John forgot the quilting,
forgot the girls, forgot everything but the
snake.
His active exercises, (he paid particular
attention to his running ? ) together with
the excessive heat, had brought on the
nose-bleed, and as he ran, ears erect and
head thrown back, his chin, - throat and
shirt bosom were stained with the flowing
stream.
His first wild shriek had started the
quilters, and forth they rushed, wondering
if some mad Indian was not prowling
about. By this time John was within a
few rods of the barn, still running at the
top of his speed, his head turned so that
he could keep one eye on the snake, and
with the other observe what course he
must take. The friendly, barn concealed
him from the sight of the girls. He knew
they were in the yard, having caught a
glimpse of them as they rushed from the
house. A few more bounds and he would
be in their midst. For a moment modesty
overcome fear, and he once more halted.
The snake, evidently pleased with his
rapid transportation, manifested his grati
tude by attempting to enfold the legs of
our hero within his 'embrace. -
With an explosive "ouch!" and urged
forward by ''circumstances over which he
had no control," poor John bounded on.—
The next moment he was in full view of
the girls, and as he turned the corner of
the barn, the snake came ' arcuuld with a
whiz,- something alter the flushion of a
coach whip
'Having reached the barn yard, to his dis
may he found the bars up; but time was
too precious to be wasted in letting down
bars. Gathering all his strength he bound
ed into the air--snake ditto—and as he
alighted on the other side, his snakeship's
tail cracked across the upper bar, snapping
like an India cracker.
Again John net forward, now utterly re
gardless of the presence of the girls, for
the extra tick of the snake's tail as he leap
ed the bars, banished all-his bashfulness
and modesty, and again he had the pleas
ure of finding the snake in a straight line,
drawing steadily at the hem of his solitary
garment.
The house now bee&me the centre of at
traction, and around it he revolved with
the speed of thought. Four times in each
revolution as he turned the corner, his
snakeahip came around with a whiz that
was quite refreshing
"While describing the third circle, ache
came near the group of wonder-struck

irk
,withant ramovizur his gaze from the
snake he managed to cry out:
"CALL A MAN!'
The next moment he whisked out -of
sight, and, as quick as thought, re-appear
ed on the other side of the house—
"CALL A MAN!"
' And away he whirled again turning the
.corner so rapidly that the whiz of the
snake sounded half -way between a whistle
and the repeated proi . mnication ofdouble.e.
Before either of the girls had stirred
from their tracks, he had • performed an
other revolution—
"CALL A MAN!"
Away he flew, but his strength was
rapidly failing. Nancy Clark was the first
to recover her presence of mind and seiz
ing a hoop-pole, she took her station near
the corner of the house, and as John re
appeared she brought it down upon the
snake with a force that broke his back and
his hold upon John's nether garment at
the same time.
John rushed into the house anti to his
room, and at tea time appeared in hia best
Sunday suit, but little the worse for the
race, and to all appearance cured of bash
fulness. That night he walked home with
Nancy Clark. The New Year they were
married, and now, whenever John feels in
clined to laugh at his wife's hoop, or any
other peculiarity, she has only to say,
"Call a man,",when he instantly sobers

BETTIE% NIGHT WITH A BEAR.
A TRUE STORY
What a dark wood, and what a little
brown house, right under the shadow of
the tall Minnesota pines Coming upon
it though, after long miles of silent forests,
it seemed quite gay and lively, and if you
went in, and saw the bright faced mother,
and the three wild children, and, after a
while, the tall, sunburnt father, you made
up your nkind that this was almost a vil
lage. Then a few miles further on and the
woods opened out to a clearing, where,
day after day, the father worked in a great
field of corn and potatoes, which scarcely
needed scarecrows, because the blackened
stumps, still standing, each seemed to be
one. Then the lake, and the brook which
emptied into it, and.on the other side, the
maple wood, where sugar was made in the
spring when the Indians came down from
the upper lakes.
In the winter the woods were filled with
lumbermen, who camped only a mile or,
two from them, and through the summer
they amused themselves in ways that you
would never dream of. And so the years
went on, and little Betty, the youngest,
came to be four years old.
It was August, a hot, bright day and the
very height of the huckleberry season.
- Now, children, I want you to do your
prettiest to-day," Mrs. Bower said early
in the morning. "If you want your fill of
huckleberry pie this winter, you've got to
get a bushel before they are gode."
"I found a place yesterday," said Jack.
"I bet there's half a bushel anyhow. Put
Betty down in the middle and she might
till a two quart pail without getting up,"
"Well, bring home all you can," said
the mother; "and here's your dinners in
this pail,' look out for Betty." -
"She'll look out for herself; she's cute as
an Injin this minute."
And Jack picked up his basket and
started on, followed by Sarah and by Betty
in Ind* file.
Five or idx miles, to the best blackberry
field would seem a long way to you, but
the children's brown, bare feet never tired.
Before long, they passed a little lake, stop
ped there a moment to drink, and soon
reached the opening where berries grew
thickest.
What with Styling, better and better
places, and stopping, sometimes, to watch
the scolding squirrels, and then to eat din
ner, time went swiftly by, and it was al
most sunset -when they turned towards
home, with heavy pails and baskete. Betty
lagged behind for she ached from long
stooping, and: Jack and Sarah grew more
impatient,. -
Now, Betty, we'll just leave you, if you
don't hurry. You'ye got the lit:lffiest pail.
Come along quick," said Jack.
"I can't. I won't go quick when I.dora.
want to," and Betty half cried. -
"Come along Sal," said Jack, hnr*ying
on; and Betty indignant, sat down upon-a
log, and waited until they were: almost out
of sight.
Jack turned once or twice and seeing
her following slowly, concluded she would
soon overtake them, and went on.
Now and then Betty stopped, the last
MOW 11111.11 they were entirely out or sign;
determined to- show she did not depend
upon them at all.
The shadows lengthened, the woods had
never leemed so dark; and, at last, a little
frightened, Betty called loudly:
"Jack, 0, Jack:"
No answer save the echo, and now Betty
ran on, hoping every minute to see the two
before her. She did not notice that she
had taken a trail leading off from the one
they had gone over in the morning, arid
only stopped on coining to a swampy spot
she did not remember. "0, Jack," she
sobbed turning once more, but now dark
ness was closing in upon her. The forest
was thick and close, and try as she would
there was no finding the other trail. Over
head an owl hooted. She stumbled on,
startled at the sudden sound, then tripped
over a root in the way, spilling the ber
ries all about; picked herself up only to
fall again; caught at the air as she felt her
self going; rolled down a steep incline and
lay at the bottom in a little heap.
It was nearly eight o'clock when Jack
and Sarah walked into the house and set
their pails upon the table."
"Where's Betty?" asked the mother.
"Just behind; she wouldn't come along
with ns."
And Hrs. Bower, satisfied, told them to
sit down and eat their suppers.
"Where's Betty?" asked the father,
presently coining in.
"She's coming; she wouldn't keep up
with us," said Jack, privately a little un
easy in his mind at the long delay.
"Then go out now and help her along
In," said Mr. Bower. "It's a poor way
for a boy to do, to leave a little gal alone
In the woods even if she does know the
way."
Jack with a slice of bread in his band
went on a little sulkily, and Mrs. Bower
stood in the door looking down the trail.
Half an hour went by.
"I don't see what's the natter,' said
Mrs. Bower, "I'm sort of worried; John,
ain't you a mind to go out,"
For answer, Mr. Bower took down hls
gun and started. For an hour or more
Mrs. Bower waited, growing more and
more anxious. Then she walked down
the trail, calling now and then, coming
suddenly at last upon her husband and
Jack:
"Here's Jack, done beat out," take him
home, wife. Pm going for Pierre Beau
champ. He knows every turn and crook
o' the woods. Keep the fire burning, fbr
ire a raw night, and the child'll be cold
when we bring her in, and don't fret;" and
Mr. Bower turned down the old trail to
Pierre's cabin.
I can hardly tell you how the night went
by to the poor mother, waiting and watch
ing?. or to the father, who with old Pierie
scoured every foot of the woods on each
ode of the trial, and by the light. of their
pbte-knot torches, marched each hollow
tree, thbilring the child had drawled into
one . for shelter, They shouted and called;
but morning dawned at last, with no sign
of Betty; and the father, exhausted and
almost despairing, sank down under one
of the tall pines with his face in his hands.
Suddenly he lifted his head.
"Pat ray," old Pierre Bak:, as his quick
ear caught a alight sound, and Mr. BoWer
darted off to the left, but stopped short,
and stood with snob a ghastly' face, that
old 'Media too paused p moment. Not a

• "Vat yon do? Vat yimi do ?" said old
Pierre, as Mr. Bower lecteled his gun.—
"You shoots not now aid made the bear,
den de chile all gone; wilt; a one minute.
Hold you still—not cry—keep your mouth
quiet!" he called to Be. "Not be fear
ed if you fall in de vats ''
As he spoke the bear had reached the
tty•
middle of the log, and turned now to nee
if he was followed. The small, fierce eyes
rested a moment on thet air, and in that
b
second, old Pierre, the st shot in Min
nesota, fired. Without a struggle or
sound; the bear reeled frem the log to the
dark water below, and 1z another moment
Mr. Bower had dashed hi and seized the
screaming child. I I

hugged Pierre, the gun, a d Betty all at

getting all weariness lb his great joy.
They were a happy family that day, as
sitting about the bed where . Betty lay in
state, they tried to malce , er tell when the
bear came to her, and ho she felt.
"I rolled away down sotnewhere," said
Betty, "and sort of went I to sleep, and
then I cried when I woke iip because I was
all scratched and smarty. 7 Then I heard
someflu' comin' an' I didn't cry any more,
and it come an snugged 4 around me. I
thought may-be it would eat me up, but I
couldn't cry, only I sort / of whispered,
"sow I lay me," an' it kept smellin' me.
Then it lay down and licked me. Its
tongue was all rough and scratchy; it hurt
me. Then I kept still, and I didn't re
member till it picked me up, an' made me
cry, coz the teeth pinched me, an' then I
heard Pierre holler, an' you got me out of
the water,"
Do you think this can't be true,boys and
girls ? I know it is, for Betty herself told
me the story the is still living, and if you
are very anxious to find out her real name,
write to me and I will tell you.—Hearth
