Fal*e Reasoning. Oppose a machine should fail to perform its work, and the owner, in stead of trying to ascertain the cause of failure and remedy it, should con clude to run right along, and argue that as the machine had heretofore come around all right it would soon be so again. If a general and perma nent break-down ensued could anybody be blamed but himself? Now, precisely this way do people act and argue when the "human machine', is out of order. When the liver is "torpid' and bowels constipated every one knows that Dr Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets afford prompt and permanent relief Yet some gueni r the "machine" will come around all right, and do nothing. Could any system of false reasoning be more pernicious ? Suppose the blood be out of order and there be pimples, ulcers, or running sores with scrofulous tumors, swellings and general debility, and those thus affected should refuse to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, guesting that the bloodjwould purify itself, could any body be blamed but themselves, if a general and permanent break-down of health ensued ? No remedy yet known equals the Discovery in curing all scrofulous, throat, bronchial and lung diseases. Sold by druggists. A Michigan farmer invented a trick with a hole in it.

The following method of getting rid ol stumps is recommended by the Scientijii American : "In the autumn bore a hole one ore two inches in di ameter, according to the girth of the stump, vertically in the centre of the later, and about 18 inches deep. Put into it one or two ounces of saltpetre ; till the hole with water and plug up close. In the ensuing spring take out the ping and pour about a half gill of kerosene oil in and ignite it. The stump will smoulder away without blazing, to the very extremity of the roots, leaving nothing but ashes." Mrs. Betsie Ewing died lately at her home in Armstrong county in the 107 year of her age.

She was admired for her many good qualities and had fathered around her a large circle of young people who en joyed her talk on bygone days.

Even thoae not at work are ia the unhealthy atmosphere; its smell, BO apparent to visitors, show talc th«t it finds its way through the house,—the family, however, often becoming so accus tomed to the peculiar odor from its own wash as not to notice it These facts readily ex plain why ao many women suffer with colds, rheumatism, weak nerves, or neuralgia, and LOOK OLD while yet young in years, and physicians and boards of health cannot draw attention too strongly to the injurious effects of the usual way of washing, with its necessary steam and scalding or boiling to get the clothes pure and sweet-smelling, especially as it is without doubt Often the direct cause of tlioee dreadful diseases, diphtheria, consumption, and fever. Fortonatelj this trouble m** be avoided; scalding, boiling, steam and all disagreeable smell from the wash completely doue away with; clothes made sweet and beautifully white; frm a the «o»M0 ia Jwd tke wash dome at leu cod than even when home-made soap is wed. , and very much SOONER THAN by the old way, by using FRANK SIDDALLS SOAP,— a Soap so purifying and cleansing that the dirtiest clothing can be washed in lukewarm water with very little rubbing, and clothes, bedding and utensils used by the sick disinfected and cleansed without either seal ding or boiling, while the work is so light that a girl twelve or thirteen years of age can do a larva wash without being tired; and yet so mild and healing is this Soap that for toilet and shaving it has no equal, and physicians advise its use in preference to imported Castile Soap on wounds and sores, and to wasn the youngest'infants, as well as for persons with delicate skin. Now that there is a remedy for this, so economical thai the poorest can use it, there is not a woman or A MAN Who is not directly Interested In having used in their homes. In spite of prejudice, THAT WONDERFUL WAY OF WASHING CLOTHES, which does away with the hard work, offensive smell and fearful steam on wa*h-days, makes the white pieces whiter, colored pieces brighter and flannels softer than they can be made by washing the old way, leaves the hands smooth enougn to do Cue sewing and overy article aa clean, as sweet and as pure as if never worn.

First, pel the white clothes in a tub of water, only made warm enough to be comfortable for the hands. Then take one piece out at a time on the wash-board, rub the Soap lightly over it, roll it tip and put it back into the same tub, anil so on with each piece until all hara the Soap robbed 00 them. Then go away and let them soak at least twenty minute*, without touching them, when the dirt will all be loosened, and a very little rubbing on the wash-board, out of that one suds, will make them perfectly clean, being particular to tarn each piece while washing so a3 to get at the scams. Then wash lightly on the wash board, through a lukewarm rinse-wnter (without any S Ji'.p,) so as to get the dirty suds out. Then put through blue-water, and on the line, without Holding or boiling a single piece. Afterward put flannels and colored pieces to soak, and wash them exactly the same way. It is important not to heat the wash-water in n tin, brass or copper kettle. A tea-kettle will heat enough water for a large wash with this Boap. Just Think What You will Save by this Easy Way of Washing! No Wash-boiler! No Steam! No Smell of Suds through the House! It has the remarkable Property of keeping the Diih-C loth, Wash-Rag and Sponge always Slveet, and of Washing Freely in Hard Water. -HBOLD BY 6ROCEB 3 i—*— Get a Cake and Try it for Yourself next Wash-Day.
