STORY OF A BED QUILT. The ladies of Middletown, X. Y., had decided to present a fine quilt to their pastor. It was,to be an auto graph bed quilt. Every old, yon Eg, married and unmarried woman of the congregation was to donate a fragment of some wearing material from which the quilt was to be made. Then the autographs of all the donors or any body else who chose to contribute the gmall sum of one dime was to be skill fully wrought on the patches in many colored silk, by the needles of the fairest of the flock. Work was begun on this wonderful quilt two mGuli-s a-m. Long before it was finished the question of who should have the honor of presenting it to the pastor was the leading one for discussion at the meet ings of the ladies When the quilt W9S completed, the question was rstii! undecided. Two prominent young ladies were rivals for the honor. Fin ally, to settle the matter without creating unsisterly feeling and making the quilt a stumbling block, it was con cluded to decide by lot who should place the quilt in the pastor's hands. The plan was to hold a social, at which the drawing was to take place Chances were to be sold at ten cents each, the proceeds were to go to the church fund. Whoever should draw a ticket inscribed "Quilt" secured con trol of the privelege of presenting it The social was held at the house of Brother William Davy. Everybody was there. The quilt, gorgeous in coloring and remarkable as to auto« graphic inscription, was prominently displayed. There was great excitement over the taking of chances. The two young ladies were supported by their respec tive frieDds and almost every chance sold was placed in the name of one or other of them. Old Uncle Tunis Wood, who lives near Centreville, was passing Brother Davy's house about 9 o'clock on the night of the sociable He heard the sounds of merriment within. He knew it was a public gathering, and the purpose of it. He went in. Uncle Tunis was surrounded by the young ladies and tbair friends at once. Each besought him to buy a chance for her. "Gan't choose betwixt ye," said he "I'll split the difference and buy a chance for myself." He bought one Seven hundred and sixty chances were all that could be sold. Then the drawing commenc ed. After about four hundred tickets had been drawn and the prize ticket was still in the hat, Tunis Wood's name was called. He drew out a ticket. It was marked "Quilt." The old man bad drawn the prize. He was beseiged by each young lady to let her be his substitute in presenting the quilt to the preacher. "The preacher! Give this quilt to the preacher! Well' fc not this vear, 1 guess. Ain't the quilt good enough for me? I guess no preacher don't git this quilt. I wont it, I reckon !" And the old man took the quilt and went home with it. A committee fol lowed him to tell him that he didn't seem to understand the object of the drawing. He said that he thought he understood it very well. then the ladies have visited him and offered to make bim a quilt exactly like the one he drew if he would let them have that one. "This nn suits me to death," he re plied, "an' I'm afraid you couldn't get them colors jist like that again. I wouldn't like to part with it, ladies." And at last accounts neither plead ings nor threats could induce him to change his mind. He Sllll Liven. Some years ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, of the World's Dispensary and Invalids' Hotel, of Buffalo, N. Y., and London, was sent for to examine a terrible dis ease of the knee-joint, resulting in ul ceration and extensive sloughing of the bone and tissues. The man's life bad been despaired of by the previous at tendants. Amputation at tk? thigh was promptly decided upon and skill fully performed by Dr. Pierce, and as after treatment to purify the blood and prevent a recurrence of the malady the doctors Golden Medical Discovery was freely prescribed. The man's system was thoroughly purified and strength ened, he rapidly gained his health, the stump healing nicely, and be is to-day a happy man. This case was among the first in which this wonderful blood purifier was tested. It has since man ifested its wonderful power over the worst scrofulous and other blood dis eases. Taken for a time it so purifies and strengthens the system as to strongly fortify it against the encroach ments of disease. Sold by druggists. MIBDLEVILLE, MICH., Feb. 15, '79. Hon. R. V. Pierce: DEAR SIR—I would say that I have sold your medicines for seven years. The Golden Medical Discovery is the best cough remedy I have ever used and in every case where 1 have recom mended it, it has cured. I have used it in my family for my children. It cures their colds and coughs in day or two. My wife has used it several times when down sick. It invariably gives immediate relief. Its sale in creases daily. J. B. Keister, Druggist.

II I -lores, with llio gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray, light, and red hair, to a rieli brown, or deep black, as may be desired. By ils use thin hair is thickened, and baldness often though nut always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new growth in all cases where the glands arc not decayed; while to brashy, weak, o» otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitalit and strength, and renders it pliable. The VIOOB cleanses the scalp, cures ant presents the formation of dandruff; and by its cooling, stimulating, and sootbinf properties, it heals most if not all of tin humors and diseases peculiar tothe s.-alp, keeping it cool, clean, end soft, under which conditions diseases i f the s.e.ilj> and hair are impossible. As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair The Viaoit is incomparable. It is color less, contains neither <• i 1 nor dye, and will not soil white cambric. It imparts an agreeable and I idling perfume, and as an article for the toilet it is economical ;:iid unsurpassed in its excellence. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
