" MAKE A WATEBFALL.
Take four pounds of raes and a bunch of shavings, 1
An old tin pan and a Bunch of straw;
Then steal an old hat of somebody's leavings.
And swear its your own 10 get clear of the law.
Next get an old stocking and stuff it with paper,
And. if it's possible, put in a mole;
Then get some old siraw and a nutmeg grater,
Then make them all up in a nice little roll.
Put all these things in a net of red,
And glistening beads must cover them all,
Then fasten it on the back of your head,
And you have -a love of a waterfall.'
Wlio Itiiie* |ho Family.
The proverb, 'The gray mare i 3 the
better horse,' as applied to known cases
of wife government, is said to have
originated in the following occurrence:
A gentleman who had seen the world,
one day gave his eldest son a span of
horses, a chariot, and a basket of egg-;.
'Do you,' said ho to the boy, 'travel
upon the high road until you come li
the first house in which is a married
couple. If you find that tie husband
is master there, give him one of the
horses. If, on the contrarj', the wile
is the ruler, give her an egg. .Return
at once if you part with a horse, but
do not come back so long as you keep
both horses and thei'e is an eirg remain
ing-'
Away went the boy, full of his mis
sion, and just beyond the borders of
his father's estate io ' a modest cottage
He alighted from his chariot and
knocked at the door. The good wile
opened it for him and courtesied.
'ls your husband at home?'
'No;' but she couid call him from the
hay field.
In he came, wiping his brows. The
young man told his errand.
'Why/ says the wife, bridling and
rolling the corner of her apron, T al
ways do as John wants me to do; he
is my master; aint you John ?'
'Then,' said the boj', 'I am to give
you a horse; which will you take?'
'I think/ said John, 'as bow that bay
gelding seems to bo the one as would
suit me the best.'
'lf we have a choice , husband/ said
the wife, 'I think the gray mare will
suit us best.'
'No/ replied John, 'the bay horse is
for me; he is the more square in front,
and his legs are better.'
'Now,' said the wife, 'I don't think
so; the gray mare is the letter horse,
and I shall never be contented unless
1 get that one.'
'Well/ said John, 'if your mind is
set on it I'll give up; we'll tako the gray
mare.'
'Thank you,' said the boy,'allowme
to give you an egg from this basket; it
is a nice fresh one, and yoa can boil it
hard or soft, as your wife will allow.'
The rest of the story you can imag
ine, the young man came home witli
both horses, but not an egg remained
in the basket.
At a Sabbath-school 'Concert,*
field in one of the prettiest towns in
Western New York, a portion of the
exercises consisted in each scholar re
peating a verse of Scripture in which
should bo found the word love. When
it came to the turn of Miss J . a
beautiful young lady of eighteen, an-'
'in the market/ bhe was unprepared
-with an answer; but before the exerc ise
was concluded she remarked to her
teacher that sho had found the verse.
It was:
'I love those who love me, and those
"who seek 'Me early' shall find me.'
Excellent girl, that!
1561, Philip 1, sent the young
Constable de Castile to Rome, to con
gratulate Sextus V. on his advance
ment. Tho Pope said:
'Are there so few men in Spain that
your king sends me one without a
beard ?'
Sir ." said the fierce Spaniard, 'lf his
Majesty had possessed the least idea that
you imagined merit lay in a beard, la;
would have deputed a goat to you and
not a gentleman !'
BSL.A convivially disposed gentle
man, home late, walked independently
and noisily up stairs and along the
corrider to his room. 'Why, what a
noise you make,' said his wile, who
heard with some anxiety the heav\
tread of his boots. 'How heavily you
walk !' 'Well my dear,' was his gruff
response, 'lf you can get a barrel of
whisky up stairs with any less noise,
1 should like to sec you do it,'
A gentleman riding a very ordi
nary looking horse, asked a negro
whom ho met how far it was to a neigh
boring town whither he was going.
The negro, looking at the animal
under the rider with a broad grin of
contempt, replied, 'Wi' dat ar' hoss',
massa' it's jist fourteen miles. Wi'a
goodchunck of a boss' seben miles: but
if you jist had Massa Jemmy's hoss!
Gosh ! you he dar now !'
Art editor who was asked to re
spond to a toast to women declined on
the ground that woman is able to
speak for herself, and any man who
undertakes to do it for her will get in
to trouble.
Wof A darkoy who was sent to jail
for marrying two wives excuses him
self by saying that when he had one
she fought him, but when ho had two'
they fought each other.

Snake Bite*.

Persons who frequent the woods where
rattlesnakes abound, could easily carry
this remedy with them :
HYATT, ANDERSON CO , KANSAS, )
October Ist, lss*. j
Mr. Editor: In your paper just re
ceived I see an account of the death
of a person in McLean county from
the bite of u rattlesnake. As it may
probably save the lite of some person,
I will give a sure antidote for the bite
of snakes. Thorougl ly saturate the
place bitten with the tincture of lodine,
and give five or six drops on sugar,
and it will prevent any bad effects
lrom tho bite
My son Sanuici has been in
collecting snakes and reptiles for the
Smithsonian Institute, and has been
bitten several tin es by rattlesnakes,
and in every instance lias been relieved
by the use of the lodine. I have also
suece.-siully used it in other cases.
Yours, W. F. M. AEXY.

rr DOES awav wuh soap suds or hot water, thus
avoiding the slops up'.u the floor or adjoining paint,
and the disagreeable sensation of the water running
down on the arms, under the sleeves,and wetting
them to the shoulders. It leaves no lint upon the
glass, and gives it a more transparent and clearer ap
pearance than can l>e got with ten times the amount
of labor and time in washing. For polishing Mirrors,
or any kind of Sliver. Brass or Tin-ware, it
has no equal. The polish is warranted to contain no
acids, nor anything of a poisonous or injurious char
acter. but is perfectly harmless in every respect.
