A Greene Counly Snake Story. 1
The Waynesbnrg Republican has
■track the ehampiorf snake story, cred
ited to Isaac Keyed, whom it endors- 1
•8 as OLe of their "most übiquitous
citizens." The story is given in detail
to the eSect that George Rinehart and
Will Hardin were out bunting in
"Unk's Hollow, * ravine about two I
miles soatheast of Waynesburg. They
separated for a short time and while
Rinehart was sittiug on a log, about
forty yards above him, on the hillside,
appeared a huge green, slimy hear],
resembling somewhat the bead of a
horse in size and shape, and which
was gurmounted by a pair of sharp,
straight horns, and with large blood
shot eyes that protruded and bulged
out from its face. Mr. Rinehart freely
admits that for a moment he was al
most paralyzed at the fearful eight.
When he recovered his pre&cuce of
mind he raised his gun to his shoulder
to fire, but recognizing the utter folly
of shooting small shot at such a mon
ster, he again lowered it. resolved to
let it alone if it did not attack hitu.
The uncanny thing then disappeared,
and wheu it next made its appearance,
he was horrified to see -it had his
young friend, Hardin in its terrible
jaws, and was makinjy up the hill at
full speed. He grasped his guu and
rushed to the rescue of his friend, aod
was able to overtake it just as it reach
ed the top of the hill, aud gave it both
barrels, which had the effect to make
it drop its victim. It then took a
southerly course and beaded toward
Cedar Point, on the (arm of Mr. Smith.
Mr. Rinehart continued the pursuit,
and was able to get in several mere
shots at the monster,i hot as it was
covered witb large sq»tea, the shots
either glsneed harmlessly off or were
flattened on its armor. \ It ffaatty took
refuge in a large hole or cave which
opens ioso one of the galleys on the
soath side of the point. Mr. 11. then
rolled a large stone into the mouth of
the hole to prevent hi| soabesbip from
escaping, and wcat bapjk to look after
his friend Hardin. He found him sit
ting on the ground fn a daztsd condi
tion where he Ji*! been dropped.
Strange to say, wjth the exception of
a few scratches ana bruises. Be did not
appear to be much the worSfr for hfs
terrible experience, and was able, with
some assistance, to walk home.
In the afternoon a large party was
organized to go opt and give the mon
ster battle, and armed witb guns, axes,
clubs, kc., they repaired to the place
where it was imprisoned. On reaching
the cave, they removed the stone and
and built a large fire in the opening
and waited for bis appearance. They
liaH but a short time time to wait, for
as the smoke began to pour into the
wye a terrific roar was heard, and the
Luge reptile made a rush for the open
air, scattering the brands in every di
rection. The brave portion of the hun
ters gave it a volley as it rushed past,
but the majority were to much frigbtr
ened to do anything but get out of the
way. It was followed by some of the
men for several miles up Pursely
creek, but they soon lost th-j trail and
returned.
It is described as being twenty-five
feet in length, two feet in diameter,
and with four short stout legs, all cov
ered with scale? that would seemingly
turn a rifle ball. Dr. Rogers said last
aight that his patient, young Hardin,
was not much hurt and would be as
well as ever in a few day.
The foregoing is vouched for by all
the hunters who took part in it.

Mrs. W. Wiley, of Washington, Pa.,
and the last surviving aunt of Hon. W.
C. Harbison, of our city, died on Fri
day, June 23d, at the residence of her
daughter, Mrs. Ellen Donaldson,
Wheeling. She was eighty-three years
old and had resided in Washington for
half a century. Quite a large number
of her relatives reside in this and ad
joining counties. She was the last sur
vivor but one of Mrs. Massa Harbison,
captured by the Indians, just after
witnessing the kil.ing and scalping of
two of her children, aod taken prisoner
to about whore the town of Butler now
stands. She made her escape with an
infant, was closely pursued, and laid
for a hour or more concealed by a log
on which one of her pursuers was rest
ing. The pursuit being discontinued,
after many hardships she reached Fort
Duquesne. Mrs. Wiley was a connect
ing link, as it were, between such
scenes of border strife and the peaceful
✓ present. A son, who left a lee at Get
tysburg, has been postmaster at Wash
ington since 1865. The boy Massa
Harbison carried while escaping from
the Indians died two years ago in
Marion, lowa. Two of his sons were
killed at Sbilob.

How to Prevent Rose Bugs
From Destroying drape*.
When I first cultivated grapes, quite
a large Dumber of rose bushes had
previously been grown in a flower
garden that annually drew myriads of
rose bugs to feast upon their blossoms;
and, the 'spread' of roses being inade
quate to the demands of the feasters,
it is very natural that my young grapes
were made into a rose-bug dessert.
This was, doubtless, very pleasant to
the bugs; but It was somewhat annoy
ing to me, and I decided not to keep
an 'open house' for the rose bugs any
longer. But to close the doors was no
easy job.
At first, the grape-vines were cover
ed with sheets and mosquito cloth;
but this was too expensive and labor
ious. A mineral fertilizer, the product
of some New Hampshire mines, was
called an insect destroyer, and a suc
cessful use of it led me to try other
minerals, until I found that plaater-of-
Paris, air-slaked lime, and other white
powdered minerals were equally effica
cious in keeping off the bugs.
It is not judicious to use an insect
destroyer to keep away the bugs, for
fear that the poisonous qualities may
injure those who eat the grapes ; there
fore, it is better to use only preventa
tives of the rose bug's ravages, and, to
do this, the matter must be attended to
early—just as soon as the forerunners
make their appearance. If the grape
vines are not already wet with dew or
rain, carefully and thoroughly wet
each leaf, and particularly each bunch
of blooms or young grapes; then take
lime, powdered gypsum, or whatever
mineral you are going to use, and dust
it over the whole foliage, and, if kept
covered so long as the rose bugs re
main or until the grapes attain the
size of large peas, the crop is safe from
the enemy. If the bugs are plenty,
'eternal vigilance' and the application
of the mineral dust after each windy
or rainy day are the price of grapes

Youths' Corapnnion.]
Caricature deals with extreme cases,
and overdoes the features of a picture
to heighten its blemishes. A reporter
of the' New York News tries his pencil
in this line—describing the effect of
trying to abolish the pleasant little
compliments, and "thank yous," and
"happy-to-BCo-yous," and "not at alls,"
of social intercourse and courtesy.
"Last Sunday Parson Bangle be
came disgusted with the untruthful
ness of mankind and preached a vig
orous sermon in denunciation of society
falsehood. He declared that lies told
just out of politeness were just as wick
ed as those told with the deliberate in
tention of deceiving as to the value of
a horse. In fact, these society lies get
folks into the habit of lying, and they
readily pick up the other kind. The
sermon made a great impression.
Most of the congregation resolved to
reform. Coming out of church, Dea
con Jones said to Judge Hadger, who
sits in front of him :
"Judge, I hope you didn't mind my
putting my feet under your pew."
The Judge was übout to reply :
"Oh, certainly not," but he thought
of the sermon and answered, "I did,
though; your old boots took up all the
room, and were a fearful nuisance."
"Well," said the Deacon, "the hair
oil you use smells so, it nearly forced
us to leave our pew."
They glared at each other, and just
then Mrs. Badger and Miss Jenkins
came along. Miss Jenkins a.«ked :
"How do you like my new bon
net?"
"Oh, I thought it just love—" re
plied Mrs. 8., and then she thought of
the sermon, and contiuned, "no I didn't
either. Its a horrid thing. I would
not be seen with it." And Miss Jen- j
kins got mad and replied :
"Well, if I were you, I'd not wear
Put lee C&Stom s Swig 28, 1882.
dirty stockings to cirnroh. and, if I did.
I'd bet p 'cm out of sight."
While thc-c honest conversations
were going on, Mrs. Ragbag had said
to her next door neighbor, .Mr. <;alla
gber, "1 hope th* crying of my baby;
ia»t night didn't disturb you and
Gallagher replied, "no—that is, yes.
Then Mrs. Ragbag called hi n a wretch
and wept.
And then the clergyman came out j
and asked young Symonds how he
liked the ae.mou. Symonds said, "it!
was a grand ef—er—no, Parson, it was >
nonsense." !
"Sir!" said the Parson, as he drew j
himself up indignantly.
The Parson went home and medi
tated iu a gloomy frame of mind for ,
three hours, and finally concluded thit j
society lying was witk-d, but he j
wouldn't preach agaiust it a^ain.
Divesting the subject of all the fun
the Neics reporter works iato it, the j
reader can use his common-sense, as |
well as conscience, to reconcile theory
and practice here. \\ hen the truth all j
told would represent a bad feeling or ;
au unkind or discourteous one, what is
celled (by "Parson Bangle") the "polite
lie" is simply an effort of one's better
nature to contradict the feeling and is
realiv no more a "lie" than refusing to I
groan when one has a midnight tooth-:
ache, ur to .yawn in company when
one is tired, or to laugh iu a very ridic
ulous GUI persou'ti face.
Regard for the feelings and contort
cf others never justifies falsehood, but
it does justify denials that are real self
deniais and professions that are lea&t
honest efforts to be sincere.
promises some
times end in paltry performances." A
magnificent exception to this is found
in Kidney-Wort which invariably per
forms even more cures than it promi
ses. Here is a single instance; "Mother
has recovered," wrote an Illinois
girl to her Eastern relatives. "She
took bitters for a long time but with
out any good. So when she heard of
the virtues of Kidney-Wort she got a
box and it has completely cured her
liver complaint."
The Dog-Kissing <*irl.
[Chicago Tribune.
The custom that some young women
have of kissing poodle dogs is the
means of driving many young men to
dissipation. On a warm evening last
week a young Chicago man went into
the Palmer House bar-room, at Chicago,
and asked for a drink of raw whisky,
with perfumery in it. He had a wild
look in his eye, and the bartender set
out the whisky and asked what kind
of perfumery he wanted in it. He
said: 'Anything. Put in some bit
ters ; a little keresene; squeeze an
onion over it, and rub the edge of the
glass with some assafoetida. Bah!'
And he spit out some imaginary bad
tasting stuff. The bartender put in
geveral bad-tasting things, and gave
the glass to the poor young man. He
swallowed it and asked for limburger
cheese. The bartender gave him a
piece of an old overshoe to chew, and
he seemed relieved.
After he had become calm he told
the bartender what was the trouble.
He had been calling on a girl, and she
owned a poodle. All the evening she
would kiss that dog on the nose every
few minutes, and when he got ready
to come away she threw her arms
around his neck and they indulged iu a
kiss that under ordinary circumstances
would have pulled the filling out of his
teeth ; but he said it tasted doggy, and
almost made him sick. He tried to
get away, but she clung to him, and
again put her lips to his. He said he
felt as though he should die, and he
got away after awhile and rushed for
the nearest saloon, where he drowned
his sorrow and dog-hair in the flowing
bowl. He said every time she kissed
that dog he felt like the girl that ate
tomatoes the first time. The thoughts
of her kissing that dog's nose, that had
been iu so many places of disreputa—
smelling old boues in alleys, and hunt
ing dirty things in out-of-the-way
places—was too much, and he wept
and asked for another drink. The
bartender tried to brace him up by
telling him that he would feel better
in the morning, and that he should not
let a small dog come between him and
bliss. He said he didn't want any
more bliss, and he should never feel
any better in the morning.
'Why,' said he, as he drank the
liquor, and gagged, T shall never be
able to look a dog in the face without
getting sick. To think of that beauti
ful girl kissing that dog ! If she had
seen the dog as I did that afternoon,
with some other dogs, she would faint.
Oh ! see that my grave is kept green,
and put an iron fence around it, to
keep dogs away. Give me another
drink.'
Young women who despise the niivn
who puts the cup to his neighbor's lips
to steal away his braius should be
careful about putting the unsavory
dog's oo.se to tueir own lips. They
may catch the dog-distemper, and will
have todriuk gunpowder and milk.

A REMARKABLE CURE IN A SHORT TIME.
A TRUE CONFESSION.
I suffered for years with Indigestion, and lately
had a feeling as of some hard substance In my
stomach. I could not eat, sleep or worn. I was
under the care of a regular physician for three
months without relief. I then employed two
physicians in Philadelphia. To the one I paid
JIS for ad vice and medicine ; to the other I paid at
different times the amount of ?S4 without any
benefit whatever.
Some friend recommended AUOMANNA I
tried it, and after taking two bottles, I was great
ly relieved, the pain in my stomach ceased, my
appetite and sleep came back and I could work.
This was a year ago last October. Since that tune
I ;un taking every week a tahlespoonful of the
AKOMAXNA. I ain hardy and healthy and as
strong as ever. My wife and daughter, who
were suffering with Pyspepsla, used the same
medicine, ana were entirely cured.
I have made this statement for the benefit of
many sufferers. lam living on Mr. Win. Knight's
Carm near Woodbury, where I can be found at
any time.
