Matches.
Few people who use half a box
of matclien & day are disposed to
think much on the Bubjfct of their
origin, and rest content with the
fact the exist. Fifty years have
not yet "passed nce the mo6t ele
mentary match in its present form
was invented, and in Vienna the
other day they celebrated the fiftieth
anniversary of their invention by
three Austfians, to whom, of course,
that honor was assigned. In Eng
land in 1S32 matches had not reach
ed their preseut shape, but had only
reached the atage of "lucifew." The
modern generation has lost eight of
all these gradual evolutions, and
they are only known to thoewho
have the misfortune to be the sur
vivor! of those benighted and unen
lightened days. In the time of Fox
and Durke, and up to the beginning
of the present century, the flint and
steel and tinder stage had not been
I
wi8-d, though it is pronauie inn.
p J..hi.totf and others were more
skillful than we moderns are at this
intricate nitration About the be
ginning of the century, howevtr,
matters began to improve, and long
brimt-tone matches came into uce to
pupply the place of the tinder.
Then; were pieces f wood about
six inches long, tip,, with xulphur.

however, until 1825 that matter- -gan
to improve, when an ehiUirate
apparatus, called the "Eupyrum,
came into use. Thin coiiBMeil of
an oten ottle containing sulphur
ic acid, soaked in fii.roua asbestos,
and the matches, which wtre. male
alKiut two inches long and sold at
one shilling a box. were tiped with
a chemical combination, of which
chlorite of potiish was the princi
pal ingredient. On putting t!.e

1S32 that the fir-t sign of a friction
match was evolved, and was culled
a "luifer" by the joking generation.
Lucifers were substantially the pres

sandpaper. The remembrance of
such a contrivance is calculated to
make us think less than we do of
that dull time. But the country
was waking up, and the congreve.
which is the match of the to-day
followed. Whether the congreve
was called after the rocket of that

is a story of it, inventor which
hows, if true, the value of atten
tion on the part of rchool boys, and
might be put up in all boarding
schools. The real inventor, it is
said a village school master ex
plained it to his boys at school, and
one more intelligent talked of it to
his more intelligent parent, who was
a chemist and who turned it to ma
terial advantage. Be that as it may,
this was the same as the match of
today; and it has since uudergone
few improvements, except one.

Soaihrra Blood fcirantls.
The introduction .f hloodhound
it ierfJCnaiices of '"Uncle To mi
Cabin," by Mr. Abbey's company
which has itenn traveling in Vir
ginia, seems to many former slave
holders to be an insult to the South
Ami a perversion of th truth of his
tory. The Wheeling fidelligmcer
hiut collected numerous opinions on
the suttject, of which the genefjj
tenor is that fugitive slave were
"never tr icked by dogs in Virginia
or by bloodlwuuds in any part of
the South. In Mississippi and some
other States, it is said, ordinary
hounds, sometimes called "negro
houuds," which had beeu trained to
pursue but not to bite, were occa
sionally used for that purpose, packs
of them being kept by men who
found their profit in loaning them
to planters as occasion demanded.
6etting aside the question of cruelty,
it is explained that slaveholders
were not so foolish as to employ
bloodhounds to tear val uable prop
erty in pieces. It is in fact evident
thai a slave would be a(t to depre
ciate rapidly after a bloodhound got
hold of him.

A Kel Hair Boom.
There are unmistakable sigus in
the sky of fashion that a boom in
red hair is gathering for a decent
ujon us not the s't of red hair
which is orange hued and too utter- j
lv Milesian, but that other and soft
er kind, suggestive of very ripe corn
"iind the crimson tinge which makes
the waving harvest field so beuuti-.
ful." How this happy golden mean,
this peculiar red with the dash of,
pensive modulation in it, so to say, I
is to be actiieved in all cases, we are
not advised, but in due time, no
doubt, some 6ubtle alchemy of dye-
ini
and bleaching will mate me
nrocess easy and reasonably cheap.
It is not to be expected, of course,
that such a change from the various
prevailing puffed, coiled and ring
feted shades to one common sym
phony in ripe corn red, as it were,
can be effected all at once, or with
out many accidents and a good deal
of "off color" exasperation, but in
this as in all other reform- we must
le content with gradual progress.
Ked hair, like the poet instinct or
the faculty of guessing the weight
of hogs, is a gift of nature, si.d not
to be counterfeited on the impulse
of the moment
In the way of historical simili
tude, this aspiration in the direc
tion of redness over oilitr f.tst col
ors in hair has the amplest warrant.
It has leen tolerably well settled
that red hair runs clear back to
Eve., and came in w ith original sin.
This gives it a piquant as well as an
Hntiaue interest, and redeems it trotn
the ni re Colnmonpl.iCe relation of
an ordinary modem invention.
Thre be those who are fun-itical
enough to claim that the system of
logic by which Lve is proved to have
had red hair establishes, also, the
uncomfortable fact that but for her
hair there would have leen no fool
ishness alnMit the forbidden fruit,
and hence no difficulty with our
consciences. That is a view, how
ever, with which fashion has noth
ing to do. The question is one of
adornment simply, and do s not in
volve considerations of a theological
nature. Because Eve in imitated in
relation to her hair, it d.a-s not fol
lowthat is to say, it is not logically
necessary that the harvest tinge
should lie justified and authenticat
ed by pursuing it to its extreme
manifestations. It is possible to
sport red hair and yet not lie Eve,
just as it is possible to be Eve and
yet grow hair of midnight darkness
or to le Adam and yet be distinct
ly bald headed.

Btudr Your Markets.
The question of success or failure
with most farmers depends upon
their .knowledge of the markets.
Many industrious and skillful farm
ers tail just at this piint They
know how to cultivate . crops,
Uut are jioor salesmen. They keep
iu a bcatcu track, and never vary
the relative proportion of meadow,
pasture and tillage ; seldom try a
new crop of seed or to improve their
breeds of cattle, swine or poultry.
They do not read much, and seem
not to be aware that farming, like
other pursuits, is in m transition state,
and they must meet new demands
orjfail 111 business. The change is
so great from the age of homespun,
which closed some fifty years ago, to
the present time, that our younger
readers can hardly appreciate it.
Then almost everything consumed
111 a farmer's family was produced
on his own farm, or manufactured
under his roof. Nearly all table
supplies, except sugar, molasses, tea
and coffee, were his own raising.
The housewife spun and wove not
only all her table and ltd linen, but
all the clothing for her household.
She made the cotton aud tow wicks
and dipped them in tallow, for the
lights in the dwelling. Traveling
shoemakers made theannual supply
of boots aud shoes. The trade winch
a farmer had with the' outside world
was of a very limited charac;er. AH
this is changed now. ilo cloth is
made in the home. The spinning
wheel and loom have long since gone
into kindling wood and only the
small linen wheel aud distaff is pre
served occasionally as a memento of
the thrifty habits of our grandmoth
ers. The farmer has become a pur
chaser: buys all that he wears, buys
much that he eats, and buys often
times his fuel and lights. To meet
these new demands, he has occasions
to study the markets to find out
what people want in exchange for
the things he must purchase. Es
pecially does he need to' study the
home markets. Tillers of the low
priced huid of the south, by aid of
cheap transportation, are able to
compete with hiin in wheat, corn
and other grain, so that he cannot
afford to raise them to sell, by the
old method at le;st, though possibly
he can for his own use. Hay, pota
Umss 411.4 some other articles are so
bulky that'he has little .competition
and can sell them at a profit With
a knowledge of the markets, and the
capacities of the soil, it is not a very
difficult matter to ascertain what
crops will pay, and what will not.
We want tnis knowledge and must
have it if we are to succeed in busi
nestf. Those who do notstudy these
condition of success, and cannot
ull ' what any giveu crop ciwis, d
not, know whether it pays or in a.

tow the carcass near shore.
To land their prize, the successful
hunters lash about it stout straw
ropes, and attach to them a cable,
winding the other end around a
w indless set up on the leaeh. Then,
with pay and lively songs, they haul
the enormous muss ashore.
The whale is now cut up into
chunks. Its tidbits go on the fish
erman's gridiron, or are pickled,
boiled, roasted, or fried.
The Uat auU Worthless
are never imitated or counterfetteti.
This is especially true of a family
medicine, aud it is pos'tive proof
that the remedy imitated is of the
highest value. As soon as it had
been tested and proved by the world
that Hop Bitters was the purest,
best and most valuable family med
icine on earth, many imitations
sprung up and liegan to steal the
notices in which the press and peo
ple of the country had expressed the
merits of II. B., and in every way
trying to induce suffering invalids to
use their stuff instead, expecting to
make money on the credit and good
name of H. B. Many others started
nostrums put up in similar style to
H. B., with variously devised names
111 which the word '"Hop" or "Hops"
were used in a way to induce people
to U lieve they wtre the same as Hop
Bitters. All such pretended rem
edies or cures, no matter what their
st le or name is, and especiall y those
with the word "Hop" or "Hops" in
their name or in any way connected
with them or their name, are imita
tions or counterfeits. Beware of
them. Touch none of them. Use
nothing but genuine Hop Bitters,
with a bunch or cluster of green
Hops on the white label. Trust
nothing else. Druggists and deal
ers are warned against dealing in
imitations or counterfeits.
Why He Didn't Take It.
Not lung o an olil i iie r. who
h.il lived in 'IVxmh in the dasi f the
e;irly culoiiistu, w;ts honsiin the
.'ooii old timet.
"Why, sir," f:iiil rie,'"I was once
iifrred a league of land for a p ur of
old limits.''
"Didn't you take it?" s;iid the
1m rt he was talking to."
"No, sir."
"No account laud, I reckon ?"
"Why, blefg your dear heart, sir,
it wad the best piece of land out
door. Urau five feet hijih, clear
stream of water running through it,
and in Undeveloped silver mine iu
one corner."
"And why the deuce didn't you
make the trade?"
"Because," said the old man, in &
sad and regretful tone of voic-, "be
cause I didn't have the I'Outs."
Indulgent parent? who allow their
children to eat heartilv of hinh tt a-
oneil fooil, rich pies, cake, etc.j'will
have to Uie Hop 15itter to prevent
indirection, fleeplehv pightis, tick
iie, pain, and, jn-rhajw, death. No
family in falc without them in the
houe.
Au exchange abki in bold head
lines, "Why do women work?"
Well, Home women work because
they enjoy it, and othvrs because
their husbands are busy in politics,
and the woman of the house is oblig
ed, to ' bustle around and earn the
daily bread ' ' : ' '
