BUTLER CITIZEN j MIBCELLANEOU H. The Potato and the Onion. The potato once went on a inash, And sought an onion bed ; "That's pie for me," observed the squash _ As all the beets turned red. "Go way!" the onion, weeping, cried ; "Your love I cannot be ; The pumpkin be your lawful bride ; You cantaloupe with me!" Bat onward still the tuber came, And laid down at her feet; "You cauliflower by any name, And I will smell as wheat; And I am too an early rose, And you I've come to see; go do not turnip your lovely nose, Bat spinachat with me!" "I do not carrot all to wed ; So fo, sir, if you please !" The modest onion meekly said, "And lettus, pray, have peas!" Go, think that you have never seen Myself or smelled my sigh ! Too long a maiden I have been For favors in your rye !" "Ah, spare a cuss !" the tuber prayed ; My cherryshed bride you'll be! You are the only weeping maid That's currant now with me!" And vi the wily tuber spoke He caught her by surprise, And, giying her an artichoke, Devoured her with his eyes! UnlnuAcn. A "Rural" Racket. In these days of dudes and Demo cratic economy, when only the pure in appearance is false, it is not strange, perhaps, that schemers are active. One of the latest rackets by which the lovers of the lucre seek to beguile it from the pockets of city merchants has come to light. The fact that it is only the most del icately flavored, perfectly colored and sweetest scented butter offered for sale by commission! merchants that is look ed opoD suspiciously by purchasers is well known. It is also well known batter with these qualifications generally turns out to be no butter at all, but unadulterated, oleomargarine. So universally has this rule come to be accepted that retail buyers only pur chase butter with which some fault can be found. It was accordingly a happy smile that rested upon the face of a re tail buyer. Saturday when a dust-be grimed citizen, evidently from the rural districts, halted his team in front of his store and alighting started in with three or four big crocks. "There comes some genuine butter," said he. The farmer's price was paid without a murmur, and the butter found to be perfect. Hall an hour later a neigh boring merchant rushed in and told how a dealer across the way had been taken in by a bogus farmer, who was nothing more or less than a sharp city schemer who drove out into the country a mile or two, and then back again with a dozen jars of oleomargarine, which the aforesaid merchant had eagerly purchased for genuine country butter. The first mentioned merchant said sot a word, but ten minutes later ap plied the test to the stuff he had pur chased, and found it to be genuine, un adulterated oleomargarine. One of bis clerks tells the story on him, which is certainly a good one. Two-Cent Postage. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 18.—A circular was issued to-day from office of the Third Assistant Postmaster General officially notifying postmasters throughout the United States of a re duction in postage rates 1 o take effect the Ist of October, and directing them to make preparations for it Post masters are notified it is desirable to bare as small a stock of present tbree eent postage stamps and stamped envelopes as possible when the reduc tion of rates goes into effect and they are accordingly directed to limit their requisitions for stamps and envelopes of this denomination to such quantities as upon careful estimate they may deem aufficient to last until the Ist of October. They are also instructed to take all available means without incurring any expense to call public attention to the coming reduction, so that purchasers may not accumulate an unnecessary supply of three-cent stamps and enve lopes. The circular also directs that, aa no arrangements have yet been made for the redemption of three-cent stamps and envelopes in the hands of post masters or for exchange by postmasters of those stamps aud envelopes in the hands of private holders, until further notice postmasters will not make ex changes for the public nor return to the department the stock that remains on their hands after October 1. Post masters are, however notified that as two and three-cent stamps and envel opes of the present issue will continue to be valid after that date they must be accepted in payment of postage when offered in proper amounts and that three-cent stamps can be used in com bination with other denominations on letters requiring more than one rate postage, and on parcels of third and fourth class matter. The circular also announces that the Department will be ready to issue two cent stamps, new design, the 15th of September, but these stamps and en velopes must not be placed on sale o« used by postmasters before October 1. Also that no three-cent stamp will be issued after September 14 unless the requisition therefore is accompanied by a statement that they are needed for immediate use, and that the full supply calkd for will become exhausted by Oetober 1, and further that no three cent stamped envelopes will be issued after the 81st of August unless requisi tion for them is accompanied by a simi lar statement. The circular further in structs postmasters as to the design for the new two-cent and four-cent stamps and stamped envelops, and notifies tbem that the prices of envelopes (ex clusive of postage) will remain the , same as at present; that no change will be made in postage due stamps, and that rates on drop letters will re main the same as at present. —Wilsonia Magnetic Appliances are the most wonderful invention of the {> resent daj.

In these days of rowing giants and atheletic heroes, fine physical develope ment is more observed than ever before since the time of the Athenian games. A man who shows the elements of physical power is looked up to far more than in the days of our ancestors possibly because there are fewer spec imens of well developed manhood than then. An emissary of this paper met a magnificent specimen of physical power a few days since in the person of Dr. A. W McXames, of Waterloo. His muscles,which showed unusual de velopement, were as hard as wood. At his request the writer sought to pinch him in the arms or legs, but found it wholly impossible. A realiza tion of what is meant by an iron man was fully made manifest. "Have you always been so stalwart as this?" inquired the news gather. "Not by any means," was the reply. "When a young man I was always strong and active and felt that I could accomplish anything. This feeling so took possession of me on one occasion that I attempted to lift a box which four men found it impossible to move. I succeeded in placing it on the wagon, but in two minutes from that time I was unconscious and remained so for hours and when I recovered conscious ness I vomited a large quantity ot blood. From that day I began to grow weak and sickly. I believed that I had suffered some internal in jury and experienced a general debility, which seemed similar to the effects produced by malaria. My back was very weak. I had no appetite, and at times loathed food. My lips were parched and cracked. My head felt as though it were entirely open at the top and it pained me on the sides iu tensely. In six weeks' time I had fallen away from 203 pounds to less than 170. I was in a most wretched condition. I was completely discour aged." "What did the doctors say about you?" "Almost everything. I consulted no less than six different physicians. They all treated me and none did me any good. At that time I was suffer ing intensely. I could not sit upright but was obliged to sit in a cramped, uneasy position. I was compeled to urinate every five minutes and I pass ed over three quarts every day. I was not living I was existing One night (how well I remember it!) my wife had put tho children all in bed when the feeling came over me that I should live but a short time. My wife and I talked matters all over and I gave the minutest directions as to what she should do after 1 was gone. I was not in a flighty condi tion by any means for the doctor, on leaving town the day following, bade me good bye, saying be never expected to see me again, for I was sutferibg with Bright's disease of the kidneys in its last stages. Within the next few days more than twenty friends came to bid me good bye. Among number was I)r. John L. Clark. He asked me what I bad used in the way of medicines. I told him He then recommended a remedy of which I bad beard much, but about which I was very skeptical. If faith were an ele ment oi power it certainly was lacking , in my case." "And so you did not try it?" "On the contrary; I did try it and to my surprise it seemed to go the spot. Indeed it was the most pal atable thing I had taken into my mouth for months. I relished it." "And did it cure you?" "Do I look as If it did?" "Yes, indeed. What was it?" "Warner's Safe Cure." "A proprietary medicine!" "Of course. What of that? I sup pose I once had as great a prejudice against advertised medicines as any one could have. When I was study ing medicine at Ann Arbor, Michigan, I used to vow with the rest of the class that we would fight all such rem edies at all times. When a man comes down to the last hour, however, and bids his wife and friends good bye, such bigoted prejudices as these all vanish, I can asure you and any rem edy that can cure is gladly welcomed." "And how have you been since then?" "As well—or letter, than before." "Do you still exert your strength?" "Certainly. But Ido not over-ex ert, as formerly. My strength is in creasing every day, and my health is number one. 1 know that my life was saved by Warner's Safe Cure, and I believe it is the best medicine that was ever compounded by any chemist or physician. I am willing the doctors should sneer at me fur such a statement if they choose, but I have proveu its truth, and am prepared to stand by it." The above experience should be ol great value to all who are suffering. It shows the deceptive nature of this terrible malady: that all symptoms arc common to it and that there is but one way by which it can be absolutely avoided. —Whon you fret and fume at the petty ills of life, remember that the wheels which go round without creak ing last longest.

A Long Missing Heir Turns Up. lu 1867 Nathaniel Ilavden, of Eliza beth township, Allegheny county,died, leaving quite a large estate. Au ex ecutor was appointed, the affairs uf the estate settled and a distribution of the proceeds made. Among the heirs was Elijah Haydcn, a son of the deced ent, who had goue away from home about 1340, and of whom very little had been heard in the mean time. His share of the estate, in absence of proof of his death remained in the executor. Some time time after the death of the elder Hayden. LJ. C. Christy, attorney for the estate, discovered that Elijah llavdcn was in the mining districts of Montana, and notified him of his inter est in the estate. No answer was ever received, and Mr. Hayden never laid claim to the money. About four years copies of the record of a court of lowa were received here, setting forth that Elijah Hayden was dead, proving his marriage and the existence of heirs in that State, and asking that his share of the estate be forwarded to them. The executor, believing Hayden to be still alive refused to turn the money over. A few days since the lost heir greatly surprised his brother, who resides at Elizabeth ,by walking in and announc ing himself. He had not been seen for forty years, and had come to be a gray haired man of seventy years of age, but his brother after a while recognized him. He laid claim to his portion of his father's estate, and came to the city, in company with his brother, and after satisfying the docket of the Orphans Court received from the executor, his brother, $1,500, with interest from date of his father's death. He then left for bis mining home in Montana to resume his search for gold. More Honest than Careful. The other morning a citizen who had been cautioned to send up some butter as he went town or eat dry bread for dinner, stepped into a grocery and bought and paid for three pounds. The cash tendered was in the shape oi a bill, and the citizen did not count the change until he had trav eled several squares. Then he made a discovery. 'Why, I gave him a $1 bill and he has given me over so,' he soliloquized. 'I could keep this money and he would be none the wiser, but I'm not that sort of a clothes-pin. I will at once re turn it.' He was as good as his promise. Re turning to the store with tte money in his hand, he said : 'Lucky for you that I am an honest man. You gave me $0 too much in makiDg change.' 'I guess not.' 'Well, I gueßS you did, and here it is. I want only what belongs to me.' The grocer sullenly thanked him and the citizen went his way, but in an hour or so he made another discovery. He found the one dollar bill and missed the ten. 'lt was a ten I gave him, and the change was right,' he gasped. 'I must go to him and explain.' He started for the grocery, hung around'for awhile and then stated his case. 'You are a vile swindler sir!' prompt ly replied the grocer. 'Oh, no; I'm not. I'm simply a vic tim of a too honest conscience.' i 'You get out! I didn't like the cut of your phiz in the first place, and when you brought buck the $1) I knew you had some sort of a game. Now, sir, you travel, or I'll call the police.' 'But I'm an honest man! I tell you there is a mistake here,' protested tho buyer. 'You promenade ! I'm on to all the little games, and you can't make a cent. Boy, call in a policeman.' The citizen walked out and kicked lamp-posts and rubbed against baby carriages, and refused to recognize his best friends. He had not only paid over $3 per pound for butter, but he had beaten himself all around. He rushed to a lawyer to seo what he could do, and the lawyer replied: 'Bide your time and pass a counter feit twenty off on hirn—fee $5 '—De troit Free Pre«». Miseries of Mosquito Time.

At this time a friend who had been cured by Dr. Win. Hall's Balsam for the Lungs, advised me to give a trial.
