Early Risers. The recent life of Josiah Quincy has the fol lowing good anecdote : One day Mr John Quincy Adams, who was addicted to the same vice of intemperate early rising, with much the same consequences, was visiting my father, who invited him to go into J udge Story's lecture room, and hear his lecture to his law class. Jiow Judge Story did not ac cept the philosophy of his two friends iu this particular, and would insist that it was a more excellent way to take out one's allowance of sleep in bed, and be wide awake when out of it which he himself most assuredly always was. The Judge received the two Presidents gladly, and placed them in the seat of hc-nt r on the dais by his side, fronting the class, and proceeded with his lecture. It was not long before, glanc ing his eyes aside to see how his guests were impres sed by his doctrine, he saw that they were both of them sound asleep, and he saw that the class saw it too. Puusing a moment in his swift career of speech, he pointed to the two sleeping figures, and uttered these words of warning : "Gentlemen, you see before you a melancholy example of the evil effects of early rising I" The shout of laughter with which this judicial obiter dictum was received effectually aroused the sleepers, audit is to be hoped they' heard and profited by the remainder of the discourse. Management of Grape Vines. Geonrc Husmann, of Hermann, Mo., one of the most in telligent grape cultivators of the country, in a report read before the Missouri Horticultural Society, gives several requisities for success, founded ou extensive experience, of which the following is the substance: 1. Complete under drainage. 2. Moderate bearing never allowing a vine to be overtaxed with a crop, no matter how robust it may be. 3. Early and close Summer pruning, for removing useless shoots. 4. Care fully avoiding late and severe Summer pruning, which prevents the perfecting of the fruit and the ripening of the wood of the vine. 5. Des truction of insects, the worst of which are the rose bug, the leaf folder and the white thrip. At Nevada weddings all the gentlemen kiss the bride, and then all the ladies and gentlemen fall to kissing each other. Nesbit & Maxwell's Store.

No more! it is a harp's low tone Whispering of light and pleasure gone; No more ! it is a broken lute, A fading flower, with blighted root. No more! it is a murmuring rill, Whose waves will soon be hushed be still Jut while they run, keep chanting low The hymn of all things here below? No more ! it is a severed chord ; The breaking of a plighted word; An echo of the pulse's beat, Ere quiet are its hastening feet. No more! it is a shadow fled; A haunting thought of loved and dead; A cloud that hovers over earth ; A discord in each song of mirth. No more ! it is a passing bell, Of youth, and love, and life, the knell, A cypress wreath; a pall; a bier; The end of human hope and fear.

If you need anything of the kind, you will en courage home industry by purchasing one of our Machines. It is easy to operate, occupies a small space and does not injure articles to be washed. It is strong and substantial, and does its work in a shoii time. It is an actual improvement on others of similar out side appearance. In the North State Washing Machine the Clothes are placed in hot suds and while thus immersed with the air excluded, the Machine is operated, giving the Garments a rolling, rubbing pressure, and at the same time they receive the solvent power of the soap. The Clothes are not impaired by the use of this Machine. You can make money by saving the wear and tear which your Clothes are subjected to by washing and beating in the old way. This Machine gives the advantage of using boiling suds and of confining the steam. It can be worked sitting or standing. It is cheap. The price of it puts it within reach of nearly every family, and pays its cost back in the saving of garments. Try it! Try it!! lirv It!!! Manufactured and suld by DARNHARDT & HOUSTON.
