I have used the Victor Kellers patent
Grain Drill for the past ten years and con
sider it by far the best Drill made. I hare
also used the Bechford & Huffman Drill,
but greatly prefer the Victor, because it is
such the most convenient and I believe
obi Victor will last as long as two Beck

all kinds of grain satisfactorily.

Terrible Railroad Die aster.
A TRAIN WRECKED I'ASeEXGERS BUSK
ED ALIVE.
St. Paul, Minn., Oct 20. It was
nearly 6:30 o'clock last evening when
the Chicago limited arrived direct from
! the wreck at Rio, Wis., bringing most
of the passengers who were saved. The
first person to appear from the train,
was the venerable bishop Whipple,
accompanied by his wife. They were
very much worn out, but beyond that,
suffered but little from the accident.
The Bishop described the scene as
one of the most terrible he had ever
witnessed. He said he had witnessed
the burning of the cars and had done
all in his power to save the sufferers,
but without avail. There was no time
to save anything and the shivering
poorly dad ones, who had escaped,
were compelled to stand in the cold and
watch their fellow passengers burn to
death. The air was filled with the
groans and cries for help of the burn
ing, mingled with stifled curses and
vain pleadings for succor. These with
the snap and crack of the flames, the
horrible odor of burning flesh, and the
hissing of steam as it escaped from the
disabled locomotive, all combined to
make the horrors those of an inferno.
The heroism of Bishop Whipple and
mm a- a -ar .
Mr. Mctrinnis, oi Morris, was, some
thing wonderful, working as they did
to save not only the children, but
others. McGinnis was only in his
stocking feet, but his bravery was an
example. When he got out of the
sleener he found Mrs. Scherer, her
mother-in-law and her two children at
one of the windows of the burning
coach. The two women were pinioned
down by the seats, but Mrs. Scherer
passed one child to McGinnis and
Bishop Whipple got the other. They
then attempted ta liberate the women,
but it was impossible. The seats held
them firmly in, and the flames drove
the rescuers away. Mrs. Scherer's
clothes caught fire and the flames ran
up to her hair. There were shrieks
sind groans for perhaps seven minutes
and then all ceased. "They were liter
ally roasted to death before our eyes,"
said Capt. Ames. At least 20 lives are
now s uppose to have been lost.
An Old-Time Duel.
From the Morgan ton Star.
A Newbern letter to tke Philadel
phia Times savs James Parton, in his
biography of Andrew Jackson, makes
mention of a duel fotreht by General
.Jackson with Waightstill Avery at
Jouesboro , lenn., in the last century.
His account, however, is very meagre,
and does not accord with the version
of the affair as told by descendants and
relatives of Lol. Avery, many of whom
still live in Uurke county.
In a foot-note to page "162, chapter
14, Volume 1., rarton stws : "Ihere
was a comic incident connected with
this duel that General Jackson would
not tell. A gentleman once mentioned
the duel to him. " Who told you
about it? asked the President laugh
ingly. "General Adair." "Did he tell
you what happened on the grounds ?
"No." "Well then I shanV replied
the General, still laughing.
The "comic incident ' to which Gen.
Jackson alluded, and which he refused
tj relate, is what is understood to have
caused the duel, and is said never to
have been made public. What it was
and how it occurred has been related
to me several times as follow :
In August, 1788, Col. -Waightstill
Avery and Andrew Jackson were
attending court in Jonesboro'. At
that time Tennessee was still a part of
JNortn Carolina, and J ones Do ro was
the seat of one of the three district
courts held for the then Western
district of North Carolina. Jackson
had but recently been Called to. the bar
at the hme of the duel, and was about
twentv-one vears of acre. Col. Averv
ml -
was much older. The two gentlemen
were opposing counsel in a case under
trial, in which Jackson, it is said, felt
that he had but little chances for
success. In a spirit of mischief, prob
ably, he determined to attempt a little
diversion rather unusual in a court of
law.
si a a
XjOL Avery sometimes rode the cir
cuit of his courts which embraced
most of Western North Carolina and
portion of Tennessee on horseback,
carrying in a pair of capacious saddle
bags, such articles as were necessary to
his more immediate wants. One thing
always carried, therein was a copy of
bacons "Abridgement, one of the
standard law books of those days.
Jackson aware that Col. Avery was in
the habit of carrying this book, and on
the day for trial, before their case was
called, he went to Cq. Avery's saddle
bags, took out the copy of Bacon's
"Abridgement," and substituted for it
a piece of bacon of about the same size,
wrapped it up as the book had been to
prevent suspicion. In the eourse of the
trial Col. Avery, having occasion to
quote an authority, sent for his book.
The package was brought to him, and
when unwrapped, lo, a "flitch of bacon"
stood revealed to Court and jury !
Avery was a roan of great dignity of
cnaracter and bearing, who could ill
brook a liberty of any kind, least of all
an attempt to make nim appear ridicu
lous. Turning to Jackson, lie charged
him with what had been done and

to the quick, but apparently controlled
himself sufficiently not to attract
attention' to what he did in response
to the rebuke. Tearing a fly leaf from
a law book, he wrote a challenge
which, unobserved, he passed across the
table to Col. Avery, and which was
promptly accepted. The following is
. a IZ ait a
an exact copy ot trie original challenge
wnicn is still in the possession of a
member of the Avery family, and from
the wording of its hrst sentence another
communication would seem to have
preeeeded it :
"August 12th 1788.

acter are injured he ought to seek a

""Loll Avery Aamv Jackson.

journcd "
The style of the challenge, its ortho
graphy, and its punctuation or the
want of it are equally remarkable,
but the demand is unmistakable, and
the little "P. S." at one side denotes
great urgency. It was evdently writ
ten under great excitement, though
with a strong effort at self control, and
and the whole document to use the
slang of to day "means business."
rhe challenge is addressed on the
back: "Coll' Wrhitestill Avery."
It was found among Col. Avery's
papers after his death carefully filed
away and docketed in very business
like style:
"Jackson, D. P. Duel, 1788."
The duel was fought about dusk of
the day the challenge was given in a
ravine near the court house in Joues
boro'. Shots were exchanged, but for
unately neither party was hurt. Jack
son declared himself satisfied and the
two gentlemen afterwards became
warm friends. Indeed, long before the
luel, when Jackson first decided to go
to the bar, he was desirous to read law
under Waightstill Avery, who was
very distinguished in his profession and
was the first Attorney-General of the
State of North Carolina. At the time
of Jackson's appointment as Solicitor
of the Western district of North Caro
lina afterwards the State of Ten-
Inessee he, on his way to settle in
Nashville, had visited Col. Avery at
Morganton, the latter then an extreme
frontier town of western North Caro
lina. The date of the challenge, Au
gust 12, 1788, is six months previous
to that of the earliest letter of Jackson,
February 13, 1789, which Mr. Parton
jsays he was able to hnd.
Waightstill Avery was the hrst Attorney-General
of North Carolina after
it had thrown off allegiance to the
British Government. Col. Avery was
a man of great capacity and the loftiest
integritv, and his mantle has fallen
upon descendants worthy of such
sire.
a
How to Fight a Cold.
As soon as the oppression of the
chest, obstruction of the nasal ducts
and unusual lassitude indicate that a
"cold has been taken' influence should
at once be counteracted by the purest
and oldest air available, and the patient
should not stop to weigh the cost of a
day's furlough against the dangers of a
chronic catarrh. In case imperative
duties should interfere, the enemy must
be met after dark by devoting the first
half of the night to an out-door cam
paign, and the second half to an en
campment before a wide-open window.
If the fight is to be short and decisive,
the resources of the adversary must be
short and decisive, the resources of the
adversary must be diminished by a
strict fast. Temporary abstinence from
food is the most effective, and at the
same time $e safest method for elimi
nating the morbid elements of the sys
tem. Towar4rjthe end of the year a
damp, sultry" . day catarrh weather
is sometime followed by a sudden
frost, and at such times 1 have often
found that a six hour inhalation of
pure, cold night air passages that on
the following morning hardly a slight
huskiness of the voice sugirests the
narrowness of the escape from a two
week's respiratory misery. But aided
by exercise outdoor air and tempera
ture will accomplish the same effect.
In two days a resolute pedestrian can
walk away from a Summer catarrh of
that malignant type that ispt to defy
the half open windows. But the specific
of the movement cure is arm exercise
dumb-bell swinging, grapple-swing
practice and wood chopping. On a cold
morning, (for, after all, there are ten
Winter catarrhs to one in Summer) a
wood-shed matinee seems to reach the
seat of the disease bv tho Air l.n A
the chest begins to heave under the
stimulus of the exercise, restoration be-
. ... 1 . .
conies ireer as it becomes deeper and
fuller, expectoration ceases to be pain
ful, and the mucons is at last discharg
ed en masse, as if the system had only
ment to rid itself of the incubus. A
catarrh can thus be broken in a single
day. For the next half week the diet
should be frugal and cooling. Fruit,
light bread and a little cold sweet milk
is the best catarrh diet. A fast day,
a.1 i a . n - m .
inougn, is stiu better, a asUng ettects in
a perfectly safe way what the old school '
practitioners tried to accomplish by i
uieetnug; 11 reuuees ine semi-teonie
condition which accompanies every
gevere cold. There is no doubt that by
exercise alone a catarrh ote be gradu
ally "worked off.' But indoors is apt
to be steep but up hill work, while cold
air even before the season of actual
frosts acts upon pulmonary disorders
as it does upon malarial fevers; it re
duces them to a less malignant type. A
combination of three specifiers exer
cise, abstinence and fresh air will cure
the most obstinate cold. .
Social Training.
If you really wish to become a suc
cessful entertainer and it is a great
accomplishment it is only neccessary
to throw self behind you, and to think
only of your guests, and how you can
make the evening pass pleasantly for
them. By so doing it will prove very
pleasant to yourself, as this is one of the
rules of life. If one's early education
has been neglected, and etiquette of
good society has yet to be learned, it can
be surely acquired by practice. , A fam
ily of sisters, or a husband and wife if
so disposed, can train themselvs into the
habit of receiving and entertaining
guests, and can learn how to enter a
room with ease, and to greet their host
and hostess, or receive guests themselves.
Servile imitations we would not advise;
but to practice the arts of society is as de
sirable as to practice music. The young
mother can teach herself while she
trains her child not to copy the man
ners of others exactlv. as the moukev
copies but lo make them her own, and
to wear them with a special grace be
longing to herself alone. A woman
possesses a quick perception of the right
tone of voice, the sweetest expression of
the mouth, and the best pose of the
body, and she can make them her own,
if she will use her good sense in learn
ing them. It has been well said that
"the quickness of woman's intuition is
an inspiration, and that she is heiress of
all the riches of the rare styles of the
past, if she only desires to possess them.
But to become the inheritor she must
train herself to modulate her voice
rightly, and to padlock her tongue care
fully, and to be pleasant when not all
pleased." It will take time to thus edu
cate one's self, but it will pay a good
dividend inthe future, for
"Nature, in her productions slow, aspires
By just degrees to reach perfection's height,"
And the lady whose manners you so
justly admire may have attained them
through long years of careful assiduity.
Hospitality is enjoined upon us as a
Christian duty, and every one can prac
tice it if inclined to be social, and it will
promote good feeling in the neighbor
hood and teach one to act well his part
in life. Laptes Journal.
The Incentive to Own a Home.
The Manufacturer and Builder thinks
that the man who is working to secure
a small piece of property substitutes a
new and distinct ambition for a re
mote and vatrue one. Day dreams
about large estates and princely incomes
may be very amusing, out tney are not
half so profitable as a vision of a lot
100 by 200, with a snug; little dwelling
house upon it. With this betore mm,
a man will rise early and retire late,
turning his hand cheerfully to any and

motive for ngourous economy which
will make it a pleasure. He will have
the vision of the last pavment before
him as a perpetual motive to modera
tion in passions, economy in expenses
abstinence from expensive pleasures
and from expensive companions. Thus
it will come to pass that a judicious
debt, incurred at the beginning of a
iournevman's or laborer's career, will
become his good genius, watching over

man ought to own his house. The
first dutv of the workingman should
be to convert his earnings into real
estate.

Atlanta, 6a., June 5,1885.
In 1878 there cainc on my hand what
was thought to be a carbuncle, which ran
its course several months, broke and finally
healed. The next spring knots or k nodes,
came on my arms, which were thought to
be rheumatic, and I took gallons of medi
cine from the best physicians in Cuthbert,
Ga., where I then resided.
About this time my left limb below the
knee commenced swelling at a fearful rate,
and finally came to a head and broke. Both
arms were sore, ami I could hardly bear my
weight standing, and hardty know how I
managed to live through it all. About this
time we moved from Ciithburt to Atlanta.
I began to despair of ever getting well; th
sore on my limb wus a regular eating nicer,
now about three inches in length, two inch

and discharging about a cupfu of pus
