A paper published somewhere under

Eagle recently sent a man into this county
to canvass for subscribers. About 4 o'clock
one day of last week, this individual might
haTe been seen entering a fa nn yard in one
of the northern townships of this county.
To each sulwciilrt-r of the paper is riven a
chromo called "Man's Faithtul Friend."
Leaving his specimen chromo standing on
the porch, he entered into cwnver&ition
with the lady of the house through the
open kitchen window: j
"Muam 1 should like to have you sub

Eds. ok the Herald. We noticed in
your pier dated Nov. 4th, a few lines
about girls written by H. H. G, and feel
very sorry to see thai no ierson has tried
ere this, to show that vouth that he lias en
listed all tne sympathies or our warm
hearts. He writes so feelingly on the sub
ject, that he has led us to think he has been
a victim to ihe smiles of a girl ot sweet
sixteen and has made himself ridiculous
by trying to seem as young as he used to
be, aud has since repented ot his folly
and now vents his spleen on all girls in
general. 1 he idea of his trying to dis
guise the fact that he is afflicted with the
rheumatism has been as interesting to all
girls who have lead it as any piece of cheap
literature could be. Vie certainly would,
it that boy's lite was put in print follow
every detail of his chequered career with
the greatest interest, tor variety is the
spice of life. It woaII be something
quite new to have the hero afflicted with
rheumatism, and we might add, judging
from the cases of rheumatism we have
seen, that there is something thrilling in it.
now can nc blame us for indulging in
romantic fancies while young t Why
should we not look forward in dreams, be
they ever so vain, of finding ourselves in
all the impossible situations imaginable;
surely the stern realities of life take from
us soon enough all those romantic fancies
which seem to trouble him so much and
leave nothing but the bare reality. If we
think the world is full ot joy and gayety,
if we think it full of tearj and sorrows, it is
as our fancy makes it yet always the same.
lie says girls are communicative. We do
not think they are, as no girl ever entrust
ed us with a secret without making us
religously swear to keep it .and we think
ibis evidence enough that they are not
communicative.
As to girls sowing secrets broadcast oyer
the, land wc would kindly take that boy by
the hand and lead him to the Bible and
there point out to him bow Sampson
trusted the secret ot his strength to a girl
and how well she kept it -
We echo the boy's last remark', that the
world is brighter and better tor girls being
in it.
We feel the most profound sympathy
for the afllicted boy and will if neccessary
prescribe for him in our next.

A fact which cannot be too frequently
impressed on the mind, sayi the Seienee of
Health, is "that the pernicious habit of
breathing through tbe mouth while sleep
ing or waking is very hurtful. There are
manr persons who sleep with the mouth
open, and do not know it. l bey may go
to sleep with it closed, and awake with it
closed; but if tbe mouth it dry and parch
ed on waking, it is a sign that it baa been
open daring sleep. Snoring is another
sure sign. This habit should be overcome.
At all times, except when eating, drinking
or speaking, keep the mouth firmly closed
and breathe through tbe nostrils, and re
tire with a firm determination to conquer.
The nostrils are the proper breathing appa
ratusnot tbe mouth. A man may inhale
poisonous gases through the mouth with
out being aware of it, but not through tbe
nose.
A youth in one of the public schools not
over five miles from Beaver, is said to have
produced the following essay on the pig, a
few days ago. It is not too much to say
that the Presidential chair is clearly with
in this young man s leacn:
"The pig is about as big as a sheep, only
a pig's wool isn't good to make stocking
of. Why is a pig like a tree? That is a
conundrum. A pig washes himself tin
mud. They pickle pig's feet, but not till
he gets done with 'em. A pig squeals aw
ful when it rains, also when you pull bis
tail. A pig has a first-rate voice for squeal
ing and be grunts when be feels good.
You can't make a whistle out of a pi's
tail, 'cos it is crooked. Why is a pig like

Some time ago a letter was received a
the Treasury Department in Washington,
oated iNew lork, and signed by the Kev.
John Cowan, late Chaplain to the Sixth
New York Heavy Artillery, inclosing a
fragment of a $1,000 bond. It is staled
that the writer, in getting off a street car.
fell and his wallet rolled out of his pocket
and was crushed under the wheels of the
or. The bond was cut up, and the frag
ment enclosed was tbe only part of it sav
ed; that he was a poor man. and hoped a
new bond would be issued to him. The
Treasury Department handed the fragment
to an expert for examination. Tbe expert
stated that the bond bad certainly been ex
ecuted by the American Bank Note Com
pany, but that it must nave been ot some
South American Republic, as the words
"Republique de la" were upon tbe frag
ment. Tbe Treasury Department sent
the fragment to tbe United States District
Attorney's office in New York, with in
structions to take action on the matter. A
decoy letter was sent to Cowan instructing
bim to call at the Sub-Treasury with bis
witnesses to get bis bond. He went there
with a man named Kehoe, and tbey were
both arrested and taken before United
Stales Commissioner Shields, who com
mitted them in default of $5,000 bail each

For six months we have been calling
upon tbe property owners to put down
their pavements, as if neglected, the bor
ough authorities surely would, and, at an
additional expense. Several times this
matter was brought before the Council and
the time extended, but now all those who
have neglected our warnings and the ap
peals of the Council, will find to their sor
row that the day of reckoning has arriv
ed. The pavements go down at once by
F. Naugle & Co. ; for further particulars
see proceedings of Town Council. Under
the general head ot improvements we no
tice that the railroad company has com
pleted two culverts under their road bed
on Main street and masterly work it is;
Hr. Alex. Walker, sq., has just com
pleted bis pavement in front of the Olive
House. It is made of stone, and is said
to be the best in town. Mr. D. Shultz.
Worth street has put down two pavements
at his property, one of stone, the other ot
plank, and in a good workmanlike manner.
Many of the lots in tbe north part of the
town are being fenced. F. Naugle has
just completed a new bouse on the hill.
and one below is nearly completed by par
lies unknown lo us. W. n. Bpeicher s
new building will be completed this fall;
Jacob Donges is erecting a very large two
story brick on tbe corner of Center and
Broadway, and George Donges a two story
dwelling on Back Cross street Messrs.
Lichty & Brother's new brick dwelling
has just been roofed and is now being
plastered; thia building, when completed,
will be the finest erected during the rear.
Tbe Culbertson Miller Holly and Re
freshment House, near the Depot, is about
completed, and will be opened in a few
weeks. Thus the borough, though late in
tbe season, continues to grow materially,
and we are pleased to note tbe new build
ings are generally of a superior kind. Tbe
new impetus that the opening of our mines
will give this section during the winter
and early spring months promises well for

A recent occurrence in tbe public
schools of this place brings up the ques
tion of the teacher's right to inflict cor
poreal punishment upon pupils. We have
long held that tbe practice is barbarous
and inhuman, unless it is some slight pun
ishment to very small children. A teacher
has no more right to beat and maltreat a
pupil in a public or private school, than we
have to commit an assault and battery upon
one of our neighbor's children. The law
would lay bold upon as and punish as for
the offence, bat because it is argued that
the teacher is ia tbe relation ot locum ien
ent, occupying tne place of the parents,he
has a perfect right to wound, bruise, beat
and maltreat children at his pleasure. We
do not think so. Very often tbe teacher is
unfitted by temper and disposition or the
office; ignorant ot the manners, ways and
dispositions or tbe pupus; passionate, has
ty, and self-willed, and without judgment
or discretion. At least the teacher against
whose rules tbe offence has been commit
ted, and who may naturally be supposed
to have some pride about their enforcement
should not be the person to inflict the pun
ishment Very often he Is angered, hasty
and passionate, and tbt punishment is far
more severe than the offence would justi
fy. Call in an arbiter and let the matter
receive due deliberation and consideration.
Be not hasty and violent
On general principles we are, however,
opposed lo corporeal punishment in our
public schools. Other methods of punish
ment can and ought to be devised, -sus
pension for tbe day, a week, or final sus-
pe nsloo arte roue examination would be
better confinement after school hours
reprimands by the principal notice by
writing to parents and guardians public
ex losure of flagrant offences before tbe
school, and a variety of other methods
could be devised that we believe would
have a more beneficial effect upon the good
order of the schools and the conduct of the
pupils.
Beside the adoption of such a rale would
prevent such tmtutet ss we frequently see
in ocr public schools save tbe lacerated
feeling of worthy but imprudent scholars
and their parent , and save the teacher a
vast amount of abuse and misrepresesta-
tton. We say to all befigerent teachers.

slightest occasion, "Lei us have Peace."

large family ot brothers and sisters of
marked piety, integrity Mid generally ex
cellence of character, one sister Mary
Magdalen Ted row who has reached the
ripe age of 88 years, and a brother, John
Boucher, younger than herself. She was
married to Jeremiah Strawn, who survives
her, on the 23d day of May, 1815, in Som
erset county, Pennsylvania, to which
county her parents bad sometime previ
ously removed. In 1S10 the youthful
couple emigrated to Perry county Ohio,
where they continued to reside until 1830.
when they came to Illinois, settling in
what was then called Tazwsll county.
Afterwards the district in which their
farm was located became the county of
Putnam, with Hennepin as the county
seat So sparsely settled was that section

that in two months they had become ac
quainted with every family living within
a radius of fast y miles of their new home
the senatorial district in which they were
located comprised about one-third of the
state ; the first senator elected after they
arrived being James M. Strode, of Galena.
Their first minister was Mr. Royal,
Methodist, who was tent there as a mis-
s o.-fary, and whose circuit embraced Chi
cago, Galena and Mack n taw, among its
stations, requiring about four weeks to

county anti! some fifteen years ago, when
tbey chose Ottawa, as the home of their
old age, and where they bavo since resided.
Over fifty-seven years ago, Mr. and Mir.
Strawn together united vith the Medtbo

been active and consistent members. Hand

possible to express that sympathy which

be no words of courage so powerful as the
assurance that their separation can at most
be but a short one. In a little while, a very
little while, the white-winged messenger

Every year increases the popolari
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation ;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring Grat
ob Faded IIaib to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes whito
and clean. It removes all eruption
and dandruff and, by its tonic prop
ertirs, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-plands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker ana stronger. In
baldnes?, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new Growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco
nomical Uadj Dressing ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, iLLX,
State Assayerof Massachusetts, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent ouality;
and I consider it tho Best Psepa
eatiox for it3 intended purposes .

quickly and effectually accomplish
this result. It is easily applied,
