Dear Editor: In last week's number of the Ad vocate, I noticed under the head of "Communications,'' that a certain person who subscribes himself with an asterisk, is greatly grieved because the Lutherans have cut down all the "beautiful shade trees'' on their church property. All the apology the Luth erans have to is this, that it would ap pear as though a "commission 'de lunatico Inqitirendo' ought to be ap pointed" to ascertain whether a person is really "compos mentis,'' who calls two knotty pine trees witli their roots running over "all creation and a part of York State," a soft maple with half the bark off, almost the shape of an ox-bow, and a beech tree ringed for a number of years already, decaying and half dead, "beautiful shade trees. ' As for light, the Lutherans have an "abundant sufficiency" since the "beautiful shade trees" are cut down, and have therefore uo need whatever to take the roof off their church. No doubt if the Lutheraus would sound a trumpet before them, it would be much more satisfactory for very in quisitive persons. Moral, "don't bowl before you are hurt." A, LUTHCEAX. School Items.

To the New Vork Independent, contalnfi lonjr and very Interesting account of the Innuriral cere m tnles, and her description of the procession pikIh wild tnw -ipleiided compliment to the Pennaylvnnia mtldien But In all thetirorgeouikaleldo-tcope of weviiim plurnen and flushlnif color the palm of approbation must be (riven to the eight thou-and Pcnnsylvanlans, who looked the "common soldier." They were the men who seemed to be niarchliiir oit of the past, out, of days of stress nnd struzirle, whn to be a soldier meant the wastln r march, the fiery battle, the deadly wound, the dreadful dying of heroic death for one'n country! They It was who bromjht back to me a Pennsylvania reiriment made of the flower of youth that lontr ao I watched wate and die In Virginia. Nearly a score of years! Ann here were eight 'thousand more hloomlna men from the snme State, dressed simply in army blue, with knapsack, musket, -blanket not an ornament, and yet militia! Ilo'ior to the Keystone State, who within twenty-four bourn can turn into the enpltal of the nation one-third of the number of the whole Reirular Army; an army in itself Of fully equipped, perfectly drilled-soldiers, so soldierly in discipline and henrinar that even rtcsrnlar A rrfiy officers cannot distin truished iheni from their lona-trnlned men . An army in itself! One uaes upon it. and is sure that the State it reprsens Is invincible. Massachu setts is said to be the only common wealth that approaches Pennsylvania In a settled system for its militia that turns out men trained to flaht. nm not mere military dandies, dressed for show parade. Even masculine mil linery is pleasant to behold; but it was the "common soldier." in his honest blanket nnd leather iraiters. his knap sack on his hack, his bayonet trlenm-in-r above his head, that bromrht the tears for the past, the faith for the future, and the storm of f bouts from the people. THE PENNSYLVANIA DIVISION. The Pennsylvania Division in the irrand procession on inauguration day was a remarkable feature of that great paireant. It surprised all beholders alike by its numerical strength and the admirable discipline which It ex hibited. To all military observers it was a source of especial gratification. Had the 8.010 men who composed it been arrayed in dress uniform thev miirht li'ive presented a more brilliant appearance; but c'othed in the regular uniform, with overcoat, knapsacks and blankets, they presented the aii I us ranee of an army reidy for active service, an I showe I that in c ue of ua-ioiial necessity the Keystone State could send an efFective body of well eipiippcd and disciplined troops at an instant's notice to reinforce our Regu lar Armv. We con jT.ttu'iite th-; Statu of Pennsylvania on this splendid ex hibition of its military forces, an I we know that we express the feelings of all the officers of the Regular Army who were present in Washington in so doing. We believe no one looked at the Pennsylvania I roups witli more pleasure than General Sherman him self. He felt that here was a body of citizen soldiery admirably officered and equipped, who could, if event re fjuircd it, be marched immediately under lire, and who could lie depended upon to obey bis orders. The same is true of Adj. Gen. Drum, who said to the editor of the Itcy'iKler tills week: "You cannot say too much in praise of the Pennsylvania trnoiie. That divis ion could have been marched out of the procession and taken directly into a campaign. It shows what can be done by intelligent efforts for tho im provement of the stale mi, ilia. I was stationed for years in Phila delphia as Assistant Adj. Gen. with Mead, and I know (Jen. lUrti-.inft ami the other leading officers of the State well. They have worked long an. I patiently to perfect their organization, ami have shown great wisdo u in what they have done.' They had their e-iiiiiimenis manufactured by the Quarter master's Department of the Army, ami in that way obtained the best quality of equipments, uniform with those of the Regular Army, at cost prices. I believe that the cx- timiile of Pennsylvania is one that, if followed, will lead to great improve ments in our National militia." Gen. Meigs also ex pressed great ad miration for the Pennsylvania troops. Army and Navy HeyMer. Choked to Death by an Oyster. A strange accident happened hi.sl week in Jackson, Miss. Thomas S. Wharton, Jr., Deputy United States Revenue Collector, son of Judge T. J. Wharton, of that place, ami W. II. Bailey, sou of the lute Judge Bailey, of Canton, entered a restaurant, and Wharton called tor taw oysters. Soon arter Hie tabic had been spread, Whar ton holding up a largo oyster on Ids tork's prongs, good naturedly re marked : "This is the kind of oyster Walker Brooks choked to deatli on." "Well, Tom, I hope that one will not hurt you," as pleasantly replied Mr. Bailey, and scarcely had these words esc.iiH.'d Ids lips when, without other converse, he arose and walked to u buck entrance. A waiter standing near the door cried out in alarm, "The gentleman is choking!-' Wharton jumped up and ran to him, and after trying all the conventional remedies of relief known to him without avail, rushed wildly into the street in search of a physician. Before bis return, however, Mr. Bailey's life had passed beyond the recall of human skill. .

It is a cure for scarlet fever, ami it Is harm less when administered to well persons Following is the pcrscrlption : "Sul phate of zinc, one grain ; foxglove (digitalis.) one grain, half a teaspooii ful sugar; mix with, witli two table spoon fuls of water. When thoroughly mixed add four ounces of water. Take a spoonful every hour. The disease wi.I disappear in twelve hours. For children smaller doses should be given, according to their age."

In marrying, men should seek happy women, They make a terrible mistake when they marry for beauty, for talent or for style. The sweetest wives are those who possess the magic secret of being luppy under any or every circumsluuce. Rich or poor, hlfeh or low, it makes no difference, the bright little ' fountain of joy bubbles up just us musically in their hearts. Nothing ever goes wrong with them; no trouble is too serious for them "to make the best of it.1' Was ever the stream of calamity so dark and deep that the sunlight of a happy face across its turbid tide would not awake an answering gleam? Why, these joyous tempered people don't know half the good they do. No matter how cross and crabbed you feel, no matter if your mind is full of med itations on "afflicting dispensations,' and your stomach with niedicines.pills and tonics, just get one of those cherry little women talking to yon, and we are not afraid to wager anything that she can cureycu. The long drawn line about your mouth will relax, the cloud of settled gloom will vanish, nobody knows where, and the flrst thing you know you are laughing. Ah! wnat a blessing are these happy women ! How often their little hands guide the ponderous machinery of life with almost mi invisible touch! No one knows, no one will ever know, until the day of judgment reveals, how much we owe to those hopeful, un complaining, happy women. How to get Sick. Expose yourself day and night, eat too much without exercise; work too hard without rest; doctor all the time; takeallthc vile nostrums advertised; and then you will want to know How lo get Well.
