A Kln-KIni Confession. There is a curious and interesting . ?ouel to the recent Ku Klux trials in Georgia. It will be remembered that tliese trials resulted in the con viction of seven Democrats who had hfn ehnL nd otherwise maltreat- u (, .r Kinnrr ! ed negroes w i SSate for Congress in 1882. The bottla before each of the lour gent e SSthern papers, UU-ral as well as men and to uncork the compl.menta BourboS, were full of rage at the ry ginger ale otherwise than on bis 0- .?Z-.' th, men as head.

I have not felt myself at hbt-rty to treat this offence as a mere assault and battery, but to cousider it an offence against lib erty itself and ta punish it accord ingly." This is a sermon upon bulldozing w hich ought to be re-read frrn the puloit of every southern church un til the "best citizens" everywhere are i shamed of such acts.

Scared to Death. Surgeon General Francis tells of a drummer who died lroin the crawl ing of a harmless lizzard across his lew while he lav half asleep. The ! boy was shure that a cobra had bit ten him. and the shock was more than his nervous frame could bear. The most remarkable death from fear was that of the Dutch painter, I Vntman, in the seventeenth century. On a sultry day he had gone into an .,o,.,;.,i t.. L-otr.K o Aau iari. ulri- f..r . ture he was painting. He fell asleep - . I and was aroused by the bones dan t ing around him and the pkeletons, suspended from the ceiling, clashing together. He threw himself from the- window in a tit of terror, and though he recovered sufficiently to understand that a slight earthquake had caused the commotion among his ghostly surroundings, he died in a few days in a nervous tremor. Frederick the First, of Prussia, was killed by nervous feir. His wife, who was insane, escaped from her keepers,, and dabbling her white lothes ia blood, rashed upon the king while he was dozing in his chair. The king was not aware of her hojieless lunacy, and im agined her to be the white Lady whose ghost was believed to appear invariably to any member of the royal family whose death w?s neai. He was thrown into a fever and died in six weeks. The death of the French marshal, De Montrevo, who was a very ignorant and supersti tious man, was caused by a trivial accident at a public dinner. Hav ing overturned a salt-cellar into his lap, he sprang up, declaring himself tobeadeadtoan, andin a few dayg his words proved true. Gmpiled. Be8w.reHim.eir. ! !

A patient, being low with fever, and the physi cian in attendance at a loss as to how he should produce reaction, had ordered a dose of rhubarb, but after the medicine had been prepar ed, fearing its debilitating effects, Ue order was countermanded. Not long after, a pet monkey belonging to the patient, that had been in the room all the while, seeing the goblet, slipped slily up and touched it to his lips. The first taste was prob ably novel, and he made a comical grimace. Another sip, and h: got . . .-. . i i.i the sweet ui me syrup, am. ins vioioii brighteiieJ. He cast a giance . . . J .

We have before referred to the un- prontaoieness oi me geucii - i doubt of it the reason is to be found in the lack of judicious care. The food and foddtr we give our cattle are good. They contain the ele ments to insure profit if they are ri.rktli- fn nn.l the animal properly "for.

It would seem so. ihere are nurnuers ot nieu wno never minn. of huvirg any feed to keep their cat tle up". But the farmer who does r ot realize the absolute necessity of bringing his cattle out in the spring in good condition, eyen if he has to buy feed to do it. had better sell his cattle when winter begins. A poor, weak-red animal in spring will have hard work to catch up during the summer, and that fact ought to be fully understood by every cattle breeder. But it is useless to expect the best results from even the high est feedinir if there is no care in oth- fr restart, (iood care is one-half the battle. It is because it is a sav ing of feed, and consequently a sav ing of money; that has been one rea son for our frequent urging of the necessity of securing help that will tre:;t cattle and in fact all stock kindly. A rough, careless man about the cow yard will cost more than his head is worth, either in winter or summer. Feed must be furnished to supply what his rough ness and carelessness in the care of stock wastes, and it will not mak gotid the waste, either. Every cruel blow that is given an animal means Ioas to the owner ; all tlie boisterous language that is used to coatuse and excite catt'e or other stock must be tiaid for. and the owner pays it. Es pecially is this true of milch cows. Whenever a man is harsh with a cow, and whenever a man is tin ploved who is never in a hurry, ex cept when he is driving the cows, he is taking money right out of the pocket ef the man that employs him; and whenever the owner of the cows is suilty of such thing?, he iS taking money out ol his own pocket and throwing it away, lhe lirst thing that a stock owner needs ta insure is good treatment of his slock, and then he should see to it that a judicious system of feeding supplies what may be mcessary to keep his steel; in condition :.t any time of year. Thus winter feeding will prove profitable. It is useless to expect good results from siock-iaising unless we can keen it in nood condition from the tart to the end. Young stock is frequently ruinoiisiy neglected m this respect. Frcm some cause the mother has not always a sufficient supply of milk for her young. In such case the utmost care must be t-tarved will never make the animal that is kept crowing from its birth, even 11 ll snoum live ai uu. n in often expensive to raise a ywung animal by artificial feeding, but that has nothing to do with the question of raising it rialit. If the exoense is too much, don't raise it. When the milk ofthe mother is insufficient for the young and that is quite fre quently'the trouble with youngewes it v dl be found best and much the cheaper feed the mother literally on such things as roots, ground oats, etc. which will produce milk.

Glasgow is the second largest city in Great Britain and the third in commercial importance. In popu lation ana manufactories it almost equals Philadelphia, and for wet weather surpasses any American city, large or small, with which I am acquainted. The people are busy, thrifty, industrious and exceedingly polite, intensely national, but abso lutely ignorant and indifferent about America and American affairs. I have not met any person so ignorant as the Italiant count who asked whether it wag not dangerous to venture outside of New York on ac count of the Indians, but they do not seem to know or care that in the vicinity of the noble city of Tawson there is a populous and thriving village called Baltimore. Singular Superstition. Bill Nye, of the Laramie City Boomerang, has been compiling a li-t of superstitions. When you come to make a list of them, he says, it is wonderful how many intelligent peo ple are the victims of the most uure sonable whims. Fur instance,we are aquainted with a lady who is well enacated, and far above the average class of those who constitute the great army ofthe super stitious, who never allows a breakfast to be prepared ia her house on wash day, of anything but giblets of cod fish and tit bits of superanuated grub left over during the preceding week. Her husband has struggled to convince her ofthe utter absurdi ty of this practice, and tried to show htr that there is nothing in it, but all his efforts have been worso than useless. A friend of ours, too, who is a col lege graduate, and hoots at most of the follies of the day, is still so su perstitious on one point that he is a slave to his singular whim. lie will nut pass up the same side of the street on which a creditor of his is coming down. He says he never has good luck if he sees a creditor over his left shoulder, or meets one face to face. Some are superstitious about white horses, owls and so forth, but this man says he never met a creditor but right away after he heard of some one being dun ned. Still another friend of ours, who comes into the office every few days, has a superstition that if he were to spit in the cuspidore he couldn't live to get home. Some day he will find that he had better reverse the theory, or he will meet with the most horrible death that has ever occurred in this region. An old journalist we once knew was suspicious about railroads and diO'ertnt lines of transit that he wouldn't take a journey over any railway until he had a note from the superintendent that could he shown to the conductor on the way. He said he tried to make a trip once without this precaution and met with a terrible accident. Nobody else was hurt, but he was thrown off the train and over an embankment twenty-seven leet high into a frog pond eleven feet deep. The Selfsame Set. The unwritten history of Lord Coleridge's recent tour in this coun try would probably be far more interesting than the daily chronicles which were furnished by the press. The following is told in confidence and with bated breath by the inhab itants ot a nourishing city in West ern -New iork. lhe Chiet-Justice was entertained at dinner one even ing by a local magnate. A caterer well known iu that part of the State furnished the refreshments and the china on which they were served, which, by the way, was a new and beautiful hand-painted set. During the course ot the dinner it is related that Lord Colleridge said to his charming hostess: "You will excuse the comment, but I reallv must compliment you on the exquitite beauty of your china. My lady calmly appropriated the compli ment, and gracefully replied : "Thank you, my Lord. It is used lor the first time iu your Lordship's honor." Then the dinner moved on to a successful close. Judge of his Lordship's surprise when at a break fast given next morning by a legal luminary he was , confronted with the same beautiful set of china. But his surprise was augmented when on the following day the banquet in his honor given hi a rival city, nine ty miles away, was graced with the hand painted china used for the first time in his Lordship's honor. Ex change. Tired all Over. "No, it never amounted to an acute pain, but continued to be a dull weary ache in the small of my back," writes Mr. James Thomas, of No. 5',) Madison street, Memphis, Tenn. "This was an old experience, and life became dull music. I was tired all over, with pain in the lower limbs, and a habit of laying awake of nights. Recently I tried one of Bensons tapcine Porous I lasters and was decidely relieved within twenty four hours. It may have been I'rov idence that did the work, but I give the credit to Benson's porous plas ter." Mr. Thomas' reverential idea does him credit, but Providence works by agents and among them Benson's plaster ranks first as an external remedy. It acts quickly in relief and healing, and renders life better worth living. Price 25 cents. Look in in the middle ofthe plaster for the word Capcine. Ask your physician about it. Seabury & Johnson, Chemists, New York. Why she 1'lanted Rwses. A farmer had in his possession, but under mortgage, a farm which contained the necessary buildings. Like many others he was at one time fond ofthe social glass, but was happily induced by a friend to join the temperance society. About three mouths alter re observed his wife one morning . planting rose bushes and fruit trees. "Mary," sa'u' he, "I have owned this farm for five years, and yet I have never known you to care to improve and orna ment it iuthis manner." "Indeed," replied the smiling wife, "I had no heart to do it uuta you gave up dnnk. I had often 'thought of it before, but I was persuaded that.! should 1 do it, some strangers would pluck the rose and eat the fruit; but now, with God's help and bless ing, this farm will be ours, and we and our children may expect to en joy the produce; we shall pluck the rose and eat the fruit." Shaker Costume. A decided shange in the dress of Shakers has taken place in the last twenty years. Skirts were formerly quite plain ; now thev are laid in lengthwise folds an inch in width. In other words, they are kilted, and in the soft grays and stone colors, with the dlk or muslin neckerchief crossed over the bodice and t he eleor cap shading not concealing the whitening locks of hair, the effect is that of a gentleness and serenity suited to the age of a majority of the wearers. The little girls wear white caps, instead of handkerchiefs, ex actly like those worn by country girls in England half a century or less ago. Among the most prosperous and promising of the new industries in Pittsburg is the manufacture of ready-made clothing. It in ti mat ed that the production last yean amouniea 10 ei,oUU,UUU, and will be, much larger this year. j 1884.
