CHRISTMAS DAY IN A CABIN
IN ONE OF THE if ACK
COUNTIES OF MIS
SOURI.
It used to be the saying in the army:
'When a soldier is ridiuga hoss, and
the hoss plays out, the soldier is play
ed."
When my mule played out after an
all-day's ride through a Missouri snow
storm, I dropped off into snow a foot
deep, and more coming, and felt a bit
discouraged.
It was in a back county, if there are
any back counties in that State, and
the settlers had located their cabins ju.-i
six miles apart, to a rod. When I set
out to walk, and pull the mule to boot,
he looked up at the sky, around at the
woods, and keeled over iu despair. I
was strudging alonj; in the snow over
my boot-tops, thinking how much
easier it was to drown than to freeze
to death, when the sound of a fiddle
reached me between the snowflakes,
and I discovered that I had reached a
six-mile cabin.
'Come in old boss,' sang out a voice
as I fell against the door.
When 1 op«-uud it I was in a room
about sixteen feet square—the only
one in the house. The big fireplace
gave light, and the furniture was
home-made. A gaunt, longhaired pio
neer sat on a shake down bed, playing
the fiddle; a gaunt, slim woman was
dancing in the centre of the floor, and
several children were scattered around
MS spectators.
'Keep it. up, ole womau—'d evening
stranger; be through in a miuit; find
a cheer—go in fur all yer wuth, Mary!'
called the fiddler, as I shut the door
behind me.
As I walked to the fire one of the
children wheeled up a block of wood,
and the father remarked :
'Powerful storm outside, stranger—
keep them feet gwine, old lady—you
children wipe off'your mouths and sing
with me i
'I was forty miles from Pike.
And the road was full of snow,
Ami the wind was gittin' ready
Fur to hump lUelf and blow.'
•Faster now—change off— kick higher
—up with with them hoofs—round
with ye—hoe'er down—ladies change
—that's all—stranger, howdy ?'
I was made at home.
'Wall, now, but this seems to be the
hand of Providence,' as 1 drew up to
the table. 'Llere ye are, snowed in,
and here we are chock full of pervi
shuns and happiness, arid to-morrer is
Christinas. Stranger, I'll show high
steps, more hoots and yells, more mu
sic and feastie' and uanciu', and gittin'
up stairs to-morrow than ye ever saw
in all yer born d-ys! Ole woman, if
this ain't the Lord's doin's, then I'm a
petrified reptile, and never got religon.'
'Ben, yer right!' added the wife, as
she poured out another cup of burnt
corn coffee. 'We is a hos-|dt-able fatn
ily. When we can't whoop'er up fur
a stranger on Thanksgivings or Christ
mag or New Year's nobody else need
try.'
A Iter supper one of the boys took
the fiddle and the rest of the family
limbered up for Christmas. When
this process was ended it was time to
go to bed, and the old man said.
'Now, then, ye kin see that we
hain't bilin' rich. Here's two beds,
and nine of us. Me and the ole
woman take one, you take t'other, and
if the children can't keep warm afore
the lire I'll liven their blood with a
gad. (lit right into bed, stranger, and
if the children git to fightin' in the
night heave yer boots at 'em.'
If the children got into a row I
didn't hear them. It didn't seem as if
I had slept an hour, when the pioneer
shook me l>y the shoulder and called
out:
'Say, stranger, daylight has arrove,
and Christmas atn here, (lit up and
prepare tojine in the festivities.'
The snow was four feet deep and
still coming; but the pros|>ect delight
ed my host, who cracked his heels to
gether and exclaimed :
'lf this hain't Divine Providence
bilcd down, then I don't like coon and
corn. You children, stop that ipiarrl
ing. Thomas Jefferson, did you for
git to say yer prarers? If ye did, I'll
wollop ye like blades !'
We had had corn meat, corn dodgers,
apple sauce and coffee for breakfast.
Seats were made for the pioneer and
myself, and the mother and children
stood up. T l ere was a long and em
barrassing pause after we were all
ready, and finally the man said:
'Stranger, I was givin' yo a chance
to throw yerself on a blessin', but ye
didn't tumble. Old woman, reel off
sutbin purty.'
She closed her eyes and uttered the
following as if she had repeated it a
thousand times : 'Now I lay me down
to sleep, and liless this meat and bread
and sass. We are thankful for wliat
we've got, and not jealous of our bet
ters. Keep us in good health, make
coons plenty, and cause us to escape
the Itch and measles. Amen!'
When the table hail been cleared
away the pioneer and wife held a con
sulfation in a corner, and when it end
ed the man approached and asked:
'Stranger are ye willin' to help us make
this a whoopin' old day V
'Yes.'
'(iood! As a family we are 99 per
cent, on a rough and tumble. I'm
about twice yer size and heft, and it
wouldn't be a fair show, hut the old
woman is a pretty even match, and
she's just achin' to lav ye on yer back!'
' liui I never wrestled with a woman
in my life.'
'Well, it's a good time to begin.
She's wiry and quick, and she'll lay ye
if she kin. Stand right up, stranger,
and do yer level liest to oblige me.'
I obliged. The situation was new
and novel, and in twenty seconds I was
thrown over one of the shake-downs
with a cra»h I hut jarred the house. The
woman cracked her heels together and
crowed lustily, the children laughed,
and the pioneer helped me up with the
explanation ;
'Stranger, she's practiced this for fen
years, and she'll down any man in this
, countrv 'cept me. I knowed how it
would I. I>ut. I'III much oltleeired for
your great kindness. The hull family
I will now ewarm for their paUTual dad.'
I retreated to a eorner, and the old
woman and her six children made a
rush for the father. They were seven
to one. They attacked him on all sides
with great vigor, and were picked up
and flung ten feet without bein? a bit
discouraged. They filially trot him foul
and brought him down, and as he lav
on his back he observed:
'Children, ye may well feel proud
over this. It shows that ye are healthy
and full of pluck, and that the itch has
no business in a family like this.'
We had hickory nuts, popcorn, cider
and apples for lunch, and at dinner we
had bear meat, pumpkin pie, roast wood
clniek. apple-butter and ginger-bread.
After the meal a half-tame bear, about
a year old. was brought in, the floor
cleared, and a grand hugging match
took place. The old woman let! off.
Standing face to face with the cub. he
hugged and she squeezed. It was nip
and tuck, Sin* sighed and coughed and
he growled and strained; but at last he
whined in token that his ribs could
stand no more. Then the two big boys
tackled him, but Bruin laid them both
out.
After the bear we had a jumping
match, in which the old woman beat
the crowd. Then followed a target
shoot, in which everv one beat me.
Then the bear and the dog had a bout,
and the dog was used up. In the even
ing we had a dance, played old sledge
anil drank hot cider, and as we got
ready for bed the old woman read sev
en or eight lines from a battered Bible,
and then the man knelt down in all se
riousness and prayed:
'This 'ere day has drawed to a close,
and we are one peg nigher to the grave
A stranger cum aloug and we took him
in. We've fed on the fat of the land,
and had a bustin' old time and expect
to sleep like a load of brick. Keep us
from growin' pizen men, continue our
whoopin' good health, and reserve
plenty of room in heaven for us all.
That's about all, onless ye want to put
it into the mind of the stranger to offer
me his watch even up for my old mule.
Amen!'
ELIZABETH ZANE.
How a YOUTHJ Girl Checkmated Simon
Girtij.
The wickedest white man of the
early period of Ohio history was Simon
(Jirtv, who sided with the British in
the war of the Revolution, and com
mandedthe Indian allies which were in
duced to light against the Colonists,
dirty was as cruel as the worst red
savage, and there are many traditions
in the Scioto and Sandusky Valley of
his raids and outrages A beautiful
picture still shows Klizaheth Zaue in
the act of checkmating Oirty at the
Beige of Fort Henry, which was sit
uated on the Ohio river, near Wheeling-
In 1777 the fort, which was garrisoned
by forty-two men, was suddenly attack
ed by Uirty with a force of live hundred
Indians. He succeded in ambuscading
and slaughtering thirty ofjthe garrison,
leaving only twelve to defend the fort.
Among the women and children was
young Klizaheth Zane, a beautiful girl
of seventeen. The twelve soldiers,
commanded by Colonel Shepherd, were
good marksmen, and knowing that
surrender meant death for their wives
and children as well as for themselves,
they resolved to fight to the last. Hut
alas! bravery availed them little, for
it was not long before the small stock
of powder in the fort was almost ex
hausted, and only a few charges re
mained to each man. In despair the
Colonel called his brave little baud to
gether, and told them that at a house
some sixty yards outside of the fort
which their enemies had not yet dared
to approach, there was a keg of gun
powder. Whoever should try to bring
it into the fort would lie in jieril of his
life from the Indians. He had not the
heart to order any man to such a task,
but the powder was their only hope,
and therefore it was his duly to ask if
any one of them was brave enough to
volunteer the {undertaking. Instantly
three or four young men avowed them
selves ready, but only one man could
be spared. And while they were gen
erously disputing among themselves for
the perilous errand, Klizabeth Zane ap
proached the Colonel and begged that
she might be allowed to go for the
powder. Her request was promptly
refused, but she persisted earnestly,
even against the remonstrances and en
treaties of her parents and friends. In
vain they pleaded and reasoned with
her, urging more than once that a young
man would bo more likely to succeed
through his power of running swiftly
She replied that she knew the danger,
but that if she failed her loss would not
be felt, while not a single man could ho
spared from the little garrison. Fi
nally it was agreed thai she should
make the first, trial. When all was
readv the gate opened and Klizabeth
walked rapidly across, the open space
toward the house where the powder
was stored. Those inside the fort
could plainly see that the eyes of the
Indians were upon her, but either from
curiosity or mercy they allowed her to
pass safely and to enter the house. Her
friends drew a breath of relief, ami
watching even more anxiously for her
reappearance, saw her come out soon
hearing the powder in a table cloth tied
around her waist. By this time the
Indians suspeeed her burden, and in a
moment more, as she was hastening
toward the fort, they sent after her a
shower of bullets and arrows. They
all, whistled by her harmless, and with
wild, startled eye, hut undaunted heart ,
she sped on with treasure through the
deadly missiles, until at last she bore it
in triumph inside the gate By the
aid of the powder and the enthusiastic
courage which Klizabel h's self-saerifico
inspired, the little garrison wan enabled
to hold out until relief came to them.
And so this noble act of a voung girl
saved the lives of all wi'hin the fort,
and vanquished its five hundred dusky
assailants We have no account of the
! subsequent career of the heroine. The
! family became well known in South
eastern Ohio, and gave their names to
the beautiful city of Zancsville We
shall lie glad to hear, on behalf of our
readers, from s une of our friends in
that section who can tell us more about
j liiuubeth Zaue.

NEW MARRIAGE CEREMONY. .
A newly elected justice of the peace
who had been used to drawing deeds
and wills and little else, was called up
on as his first official act to marry a
couple who came into his office very
hurriedly and told him their purpose.
He lost no time in taking off his hat,
and remarked :
'Hats off in the presence of the court!'
All being uncovered, he said:
'Hold up your right hands. You,
John Marvin, do solemuly swear that
to the best of your knowledge aud be
lief, you take this woman to have and
ter hold for verself, yer heirs, execkye
ters and assigns, for your an' their use
an' liehoof forever ?'*
'I do,' answered the groom.
'You, Alice Ewer, take this yer man
for yer husband, ter have and ter hold
forever; and you do further swear that
you are lawfully seized in fee simple,
all free from incumbrance, and hev good
right tu sell, bargain, and convey to
the said grantee verself, yer heirs, ad
ministrators and assigns?'
'I do,' said the bride, rather doubt
fully.
' Well, John, that'll be about a dol
lar'n fifty cents.'
'Are we married ?' asked the bride.
'Yes, when the fee comes in.'
After some fumbling it was produc
ed, and handed to the 'Court,' who
pocketed it and continued:
'Know all men by these presents, that
I, bein' in good health and iu souud
mind, in consideration of a dollar'n fifty
cents to me in hand paid, the receipt
whereof is hereby acknowledged, do
and by these presents have declared
you man and wife during good behav
ior, and till otherwise ordered by court.'

R. V. Pierce, M D.:
DEAR SIR —I feel that I should be
neglecting my duty were I to fail in
giiyng my testimony as to the value
of your medicines. For years I have
been a great sufferer from a complica
tion of chronic diseases which our phy
sieions treated in vain. I am now
using your Favorite Prescription and
find myself almost well. Your medi
cines have done me more good than
anything I have ever used. I remain,
gratefully yours, Mrs. E. B. Parinalee.
A wild bull can easily work himself
into a scarlet fever.
'Know all men by these presents,'
read an old bachelor lawyer, why don't
they put in woman, too? asked his
lady client. 'Because' said the o. b.,
'if "ono woman knows it, all women
know it.
The most effective, Harmless and
Honest remedy wo know of, is Days

•Etiquette' writes to us to inquire if
in our opinion it would be proper for

means.

A little girl of twelve years the
daughter of a clergyman, was asked :
'Sadie, does your papa ever preach the

it in different places.'
Honesty is the best policy in medicine

Sarsaparilla is a genuine preparation,
an unequal lop spring medicine and

others in the market. Trial proves it.
A minister who was found with his
Hrm around the waist of his young
landlady, while she was stroking his
beard and reciprocating his kisses, say s
that the brotherly ministerial kiss is

kiss, then, has a greater quality than
the staife kiss, which has been pro
