It strains a young man more to have a 140 pound girl sit on his knee fifteen minutes than It does to load hay all day, but he is perfectly willing to be strained. Calvin Sykes, et Suffleld, Conn., refuses to shake hands with any one, and has net done so forjears. A nice politician you'd make, Mr. Sykes. A woman in Jericho, Vermont, having heard a great deal about "preserving autumn leaves," put up some, but afterward told a neighbor that they were not fit to. eac Memory Is a great thing, as exemplified in Iowa the ether day, when a servant girl suddenly recol lected, Just as twenty people were sitting down to ice cream, that she accidentally spilled arsenic In the freezer. ...

Kneeling in Prayer Around a Dying Bider ou tbe It &ceTr ac k . ' New York, September 3. At Brigh ton Beach in the hurdle race one horse, L L, was mounted by a lad named Kearn4,who had worked around the stables, for a few weeks. He never rode in but one hurdle race before. When he reached the backstretch L 1. was third in the race. Leaping a hurdle his feet caught in the top, and he went over in a summersault, Kearns striking head first on the track, the horse falling on him. The horses following dashed over the hurdle, while a chorus of "ohs !'' arose from the crowd on the other side of the track. The horse soon arose and walked away, bat his rider lay motion less in the dirt. Many thought he was dead, and a string of jockeys, stable boys and idlers started across the field to.ward the boy. In the' line towered the tall form of young Father Dougherty. With ihe natural love of his countryman for horse-racing, he had been watching the equine contests. When the father came to where the boy lay, with his bloody face turned to the sky, and his lilac and rred colors covered with dirt, he saw lhat the boy was insensible and appa rently dying. Kequestmg the jockeys, stable boys and others to kneel, the reverend father offered up a prayer for the boy, anointing -him and performing other services of his church for the dy ing. The scene was strikingly impres sive. Horsemen and riders who had never knelt in prayer before obeyed the request of the father, there bronzed, earnest and hard faces softening in sympathy for the crushed jockey. The boy died soon afterwards. The Setting- market. A Washington man advertises to make the following bets, money to be deposited and covered at iliggs Bank : 1. One thousand dollars against five hundred dollars that the Democrats will carry Indiana. 2. One thousand dollars against five hundred that the Democrats will carry New York State by at least 30,000 majority. 3. Two thousand even that Han cock's majority of the popular vote over Garfield will be a quarter of a million. 4. Pive hundred dollars that Jere Black, Allen G. Thurman, W.K. Mor rison, W. A. Wallace, Governor Hub bard of Texas, Samuel J. Tilden, W. Pinkney White, Professor McMahon of West Virginia, and Dick Merrick of Washington, will either be in Gen.

Protestants than the Freethinkers, and some of Ja3 sharp thrusts brought down the house. Parker Pillspury had been selected' to answer him, and he dissected Catholic ism and Protestantism in his character-! istic manner. Said a leading business man, who had never been suspected of infidelity: "There was; more food for thought in Pillsbury's lecture than in all the sermons that have been -preached in town for the last ten years," George Cheney, of Evansville, Ind., who, a few months since, renounced Christianity, has been one of the lead ing spirits of the convention. . :, ..- Mrs. Amelia Colby, of St Louis, is pronounced by all who have heard her to be the ablest female speaker on the continent . J. H. Bernham, of Michigan, a recent convert from Methodism, is a man of great ability and force, and this . after noon kept an audience of 1,500 people in constant applause by his cutting satire on the Christian religion. Eli sur Wright gave a scholarly lecture last evening. Sunday morning Mr. Cheney and Mrs. Colby will speak. Colonel Ingersoll speaks in the after noon and Thaddeus B. Wakeman, New York in the evening. . - r Intelligence and Virtue. New York World. The Republican party is the party of intelligence and virtue the sort of. in telligence to which Secretary Sherman Is speech appeals and the sort of virtue to which Mr. Garfield's record appeals.

Mt. liry Visitor. ' Mrs. Nancy Jessup died last week in Westfield township in her 88th year. For twenty-seven years before her death she had been blind. One month ago, she prayed that she might receive her sight and see her children ; and, strange to say, two days before she ex pired her sight was restored and she was permitted to see all her children and was astonished at their looks. Verily the prayers of the righteous availeth much. Hard ou Editor. Gen. Haskell, of the Salvation Army, entertained a large crowd on a St. Louis street corner the other day. He told them that he was formerly a circus man and a good card-player. He said that over in East St Louis the Army had a camp where they fed the hungry. He didn't care who came if he was right out of the penitentiary and was hungry he should have something to eat It was no use talking religion to a hungry roan. First fill his stomach. You could never convert a hungry man. There had never been an instance of it on earth. Of the different political parties, he said that there were good men in each party, good men in the Democratic party as well. as m the Re publican. More than that, there were good men who were editors, and up in Casey county, la, George W. Ashton, editor ot the viarion. vhaa oeen con- Verted to God, the first instance in the history of Christianity. Cold Tea as a Stimulant. Journal of Health. A story is going the rounds of tL En dish naners that a ' large ftgricultc rist has been giving his harvest hands. J cold tea instead or beer to arinic in ue harvest field, and that the results were extremely satisfactory, their being none of the sullenness, excitability ; and rudeness that had previously:; been at tributed to beer. Because tea does no intoxicate its power as a stimulant is forgotten or underrated, but the fact re mains that there is more stimulant in a pint of tea, of average strength than in a quart of common beer. It : should be remembered, too,: that the quantity of tea that a harvester will consume daily as a substitute for beer,is greater than that which which, will suffice an- entire family around a supper table. Stimq lation, whether by spirits, wine, been tea, coffee ot opiunw is simply a method of consuming one's physical capital, and the laborer who replaces his two or three quarts of beer -with, an equal daily alio wance of tea, is exhausting his nerve and muscle more rapidly than he did while guzzling beer. More and bet ter food is what beer-drinking laborers need. The well-fed American :.farmer, working long hours undera sun hotter than" England ever Jtnew, does i not drink as much in a week as an under fejl laborer will in a day. If working men must drink heavily of something besides water something with a taste tait let them drink oatmeal water, -or water in which brown ; cornmeal has been thrown. -.A little, sugar ..will give such drink n utritious . and streogthen ing properties.
