VALUE OF HA VINO A TRXDE. [Lutheran Missionary.] It was a rule among the Jews that •very young man, whatever his rank or wealth, and though bred for one of the learned professions, should be taught some handicraft. The Talmud asks: "What is commanded of a father towards his son?" The answer is: "To circumcise him, to teach him the law, to teach him a trade." Some of the rabbis used to say, "He that teaches not his son a trade, does as though he tanght him to be a thief." And a favorite saying of the wise Gamaliel was, "He that has a craft in bis bands, to what is he like? He is like to a vineyard that is fenced ;" by which he meant that a man's life by means of a handicraft was defended against idle ness, sickness and want. This custom of the Jews teaches our generation a valuable lesson. There are some people so foolish as to think that manual labor is depreciation. The moment a man deems himself re spectable, as having some position in society, or, when he has made a little money, he shrinks from apprenticing his sons to any trade. No, a father now sends his son to starve in an over crowded profession, or to earn a scanty pittance as a clerk in a ribbon store, robbing the feebler sex of their means of obtaining a livilihood, although as carpenters or coopers, builders or ma chinists, farmers or manufacturers, they might by industry and economy soon earn a competence and become masters and employers and gain an enviable reputation. Hard manual labor is not degrading in itself, nor is it inconsistent with true greatness. A working man need not be rude, rough and coarse; he need not lack in refinement and culture. All of God's creatures, who have the independence and nobility to work for their own living, can become true men and gentlemen, in the best sense of that much abused word. The nature of the work has nothing to do with it. It depends altogether on what you yourself are. If a man has a trade, and aims to become skillful in it—if he be sober, industrious, trustworthy and obliging, he is as sure of employment and a comfortable subsistence as, in this uncertain world any man can be. Fathers and mothers, be wise and learn. See that your sons acquire the knowledge of a trade, of a profession, or of business qualities, that they may be prepared for life, and let your daughters be thoroughly instructed in the principles that underlie true Womanhood, even as King Samuel describes the true woman in the last chapter of Proverbs. A LINCOLN ANECDOTE.— WhiIe Judge Logan, of Springfield, Illinois, was Lincoln's partner, two farmers who had a misunderstanding respecting a horse trade, went to law. By mutual consent, the partners in-law became antagonists in this case. On the day of the trial, Mr. Logan having bought a new shirt, open in the back, with a hugh standing collar, dressed himself in extreme baste and put on the shirt with the bosom at the back, a linen coat concealing the blunder. He daz zled the jury with his knowledge of "horse points," and as the day was sultry took off his coat and summed up his shirt sleeves. Lincoln, sitting behind him, took in the situation, and when his turn came, said to the jury : "Gentlemen, Mr. Logan has been try ing for over an hour to make you be lieve that he knows more about a horse than these honest old farmers who are witnesses. He has quoted largely from his "horse doctor," and now gentlemen, I submit to you [here he lifted Logan out of his chair and turned his back to the jury and crowd, ai the same time flipping up his enor mous standing collar,] what depend ence can you place on his horse knowl edge when be has not sense enihigb to put on his shirt?" The roars of laughter that greeted this exhibition, and the verdict that Lincoln got soon gave" Logan a premature prej udice against "bosom shirts."—Deca tur (III.) Sun. BUSINESS ON THE BRAIN.—A few nights ago the wife of Justice Moses was aroused from a sound sleep by a stern voice: "Ar# you ready for trial, I say ?" "Hush ! Don't make a noise, or else you'll wake the baby," she replied, endeavoring to soothe him. . "Don't talk back to this court," he Vociferated." "If you've got any wit nesses bring 'em on, but let your law yer do the talking." "Why, Tom, how you take on! What is the matter ?" "I send yoa up for sixty days, that's what's the matter. Here, Enders, take her away. Now, .I'm ready for that petty larceny case. Bring up the prisoner." And, jumping out of bed, he started for the next room to summou a jury, but fell over a rocking chair, barked his shins, woke up and asked bis wife what the dickens was the matter, any how.— Virginia Chronicle. WASHINGTON Territory is getting ready to ask for admission into the Union, and to that end her people have adopted a Constitution framed with the view to State government. The Territory has a population of only 60,000, and an area considerably larger than that of Pennsylvania. There is nothing in the way of its admission, except that the present Democratic Congress is not at «11 likely to admit a Republican Territory, which would be sure to cast its three electoral votes for the next Republican candidate for President. A bill was introduced last winter to admit Washington, but when it got into committee it slept there, and will not be disturbed while this Congress lasts. We cannot wel come the "State of Washington" to the sisterhood just yet. How TO STOP THE PAPER.— If you wish to stop your paper do not direct the postmaster to return it. That will not do. Do not write on it and return it yourself. That lays you liable to a fine. Do not leave it uncalled for at the office, for if you arc in arrears that convicts you of a swindle, and docs not release you from the obligation to pay for it until yon notify the pub fishers. But if you wish it discon tinned, write to the publishers and it will be done, provided you are not in arrears; if you are, send enough to pay up like an honorable man. If you ■ do not know the amount a postal card will bring the desired information. —"He is very absent minded," said ° a candidate of an opponent. "Indeed, his mind is entirely absent." a WHERK TO BUY HARDWARE! ■ , ; 1 Norwav Iron, Oilers, [ Axes, Augers, _ Oil Stones, Padlocks, • ' "'1879.

This Sarsaparilla is a combination of vegetable alteratives Stillingia, Man drake, Yellow Dock—with the lodides of Potassium and Iron, and is the most efficacious medicine yet known for the diseases it is intended to cure, i, Its ingredients are so skilfully com bined. that the full alterative effect of each is assured, and while it is so mild ■ as to be harmless even to children, it is still so effectual as to purge out from the system those impurities and corruptions which develop into loathsome disease. The reputation it enjoys is derived from its cures, and the confidence which prominent physicians all over the coun try repose in it, prove their experience of its usefulness. Certificates attesting its virtues have accumulated, and are constantly being r , received, and as many of these caseg are publicly known, they furnish convincing evidence of the superiority of this Sar saparilla over every other alterative medicine. So generally is its superi ority to any other medicine known, that r we need do 110 more than to assure the public that the best qualities it has ever possessed are strictly maintained. prr.PAUED BV Dr. J.
