AFTER MANY DAYS.
BY JOSEPH E. HAERIS.
Captain Edward Ford, of tho Cal
ifornia Battalion, of the Second Mass
achusetts Cavalry, will be remembered
by every oflicer in the Army of 1ho
Potomac, and particularly by those
who served with him in the valley of
the Shenandoah, as a scholar, a kindly
hearted gentleman, and a gallant sol-,
dier. At the battle of Chancellorsville
the captain was detailed from his regi
ment for temporary staff duty, a ser
vice which he did not at all enjoy, for
ho was one of those men who liked to
bo with his "boys!"
As we have to do with the captain
and not with the battle, it is unneces
sary hero to attempt any description
of that sanguinary struggle. The cap
tain was sent with an order to General
Howard, but when ho reached the
command of that officer, he found the
Eleventh Corjs broken, demoralized,
and in full retreat before Stonewall
Jackson's men.
While the captain was trying to find
the officer for whom he had the mes
sage, his horse was shot down, and
beforo he could untangle himself from
tho stirrups, he saw poised above him
he gleaming blade of a swarthy Con
federate soldier. The captain had no
time to think, much less to act ; a few
seconds more and all would have been
over with him ; but before the blade
could fall upon his head, a Union sol
dier leaped from behind a tree, and a
well-aimed shot sent tho horseman
reeling from the saddle. .
"A mighty close call that, captain !"
was all the soldier said, as he drew the
young officer away from tho dead
horse, and a moment more and both
were rushing after tho retreating
corps, with tho enemy in hot pursuit.
It was no time to make inquiries, to
express thanks or to ask for names,
but in the few minutes, during which
they ran on side by side, the face of
tho man who had como to Captain
Ford's rescue was indelliblv impressed
on his memory. He felt that the sol
dier had saved his life, and after the
battlo was over, ho mado every effort
to find him, but without snccess. That
ho was an American he knew from his
voice and appearance, but his name,
the number of his regiment, or even
the corps to which he was attached,
though he believed it was the Eleventh,
were alike unknown k him.
The captain Bcrved with distinction
through the war, coming out with the
full rank of colonel. Ho settled down
in Boston, where he engaged with
success in manufacturing, and a few
years afterward took to himself a wife.
His married life was quite as happy as
his military service was distinguished,
and his business career prosperous.
The colonel was and is a prominent
member of the Loyal Legion, the
Grand Army of the Republic, the So
ciety of tho Army of the Potomac and
other veteran organizations, in all of
which he was well known, not only for
his hearty camaraderie; but for his
ability to sing a song or tell a story.
Not once, but a hundred times, and
always with tho hope of finding the
man who had so unexpectedly come to
his aid at Chancellorsville, the colonel
told the story of his gallant rescuer.
But the years wore on, and his dark
hair and whiskers became streaked
with gray, and still no one could give
him light as to the identity of his pre
server. Just ten years after tho close of the
war, on account of his children, the
colonel moved from the city of Boston
to a beautiful rural home near Somer
ville. In the adornment of this place
he took great delight, and there are
soldiers of every State in the Union
wuo will remember, with pleasure, the
happy times spent there as Colonel
Ford's guest.
One night, just before Christmas in
1876, the colonel stayed up in his li
brary long after his usual time for re
tiring. It was one o'clock when he
went to bed, but the matter on' his
mind kept him awake till the clock on
the mantel chimed two. His bedroom
opened off the library, and he was just
stukinj into a doze when he was Btart-
W into wakefulness by hearing a
chair turned over in the next room.
Quickly and silently ha got out of bed,
and having no other weapon at hand,
he picked up a bootjack, which was
near the washstancL anl in Ms bare
feet slipped into tho library. By the
light of a lamp burning on the grounds
outside he saw the figure of a man
bending over his desk, and with move
ments so cautious and catlike that he
was certain that it was not one of the
servants, and also that his own en
trance had not been observed by tho
burglar.
The man's back was towards him,
and knowing that a fight would follow,
in which he might get the worst of it
if he gave any alarm, Cdlonel Ford
sprang forward, brought the bootjack
down with a "number one cut," and
the next instant with a groan the in
trnder fell in a heap at Ais feet.
The colonel lit the gas-immediately,
and turned the burglar so as to exposo
his face. As he bent over .him, Chan
cellorsville and all the incidents con
nected therewith flashed through his
mind. -Here was the man hip had been
so long in search of, the brave fellow
who, .at the risk of his own life, had
saved him from the sabre of a mount
ed Confederate.
Tho colonel was about to summon
the servants, but suddenly changed
his mind. He had the necessary stim
ulant at hand, and he at once proceed
ed to revive the unconcious burglar.
After a few minutes the man was re
stored to his senses, and rising un
steadily from the floor he rubbed his
eyes, and in a dazed, frightened way
surveyed the man standing before
him.
"Who are you, and what brought
you here?" demanded the colonel.
Before replying the man staggered
into a chair, and then in a broken
voice, replied:
"My name is Tom Bushmore. My
God, sir! do not have me arrested!"
"Not have you arrested!" repeated
the colonel. "What else can I do
with you? I find you here as a burg
lar trying to rob my house, and fortu
nately I have been able to prevent
you from that crime and perhaps from
the greater one of murder?"
'Murder!" echoed the man, as he
pressed his hands to his bleeding head.
Before Heaven, sir, I had no thought
of that. You will not believe my
oath, but if you could 1 would swear
to you, and with truth, that this is the
first time in my life that I ever know
ingly attempted a crime. My wife
has been an invalid for nearly two
years ; my children aro suffering for
food, and I am out of employment.
For days and weeks I have searched
far and near for work, but withfout
success. I have heard that you were
rich, and in my desperation I tonight
entered your house, hoping that I
might be able to pick up something
that, without serious loss to yon,
would have enabled me to buy medi
cine for my wife, and furnish bread
to my starving little ones. "
"Were you a soldier?" asked the
colonel.
"Yes, sir," was tho response, "and
I think a bravo one. Here is some
evidence of it," and ho tore open his
flannel shirt, exposing a scar across
his right breast.
"Were you at tho battle of Chan
cellorsville?" asked the colonel, eager-
"I was, sir," replied the man.
"What was your corps?"
"The Eleventh. But, in justice to
myself, I should say I was not one of
the men who led the stampede in that
fight."
"No," said the colonel, "I think I
distinctly remember you near the
rear, and with the enemy all about"
"You remember me?" said tho man,
in surprise. "I must confess, sir, that
while I have seen you since the war, I
do not remember having met you dur
ing that time."
"Yes, I think you did meet me, and
saved my lifo in that very battle," and
then the colonel related the incident
at Chancellorsville, which the man
distinctly remembered, though he
modestly took no credit to himself for
the part he had played in the young
officer's rescue.
There is but little more to say. The
colonel. did not read his visitor a lec
ture on the immorality of his conduct
that night. His heart was too full of
the man's gallantry on the former
occasion. The poor fellow came in to
find something that he might sell that
would relieve his famtly ; he went out
with money in his pocket and hope in
his heart.
It is pleasant to add, though it is
just what might have been expected
from Colonel Edward Ford, that Tom
Bushmore had no need longer to seek
for employment He is now a trusted
superintendent of one of the colonel's
establishments. His wife is restored
to health, his children are reaching
man and womanhood, a credit to him
self and the State.
The colonel still delights to tell of
how Tom Bushmore saved ' him at
Chancellorsville, and of how he found
him after so many years, but he does
not mention the details of their meet
ing. Comparative Mortality of the Sexes.
Although woman has been deprived
of so many rights and privileges, che
has at least the advantage of man as
regards longevity; she suffers less
from .accidents, injuries and many
forms of disease ; she is, in fact, mors
tenacious than man of the limited en
joyments allowed her. Dr. Brandreth
Symonds has collected and studied a
large number of statistics to illustrate
this interesting fact The comparative
mortality of the sexes at different
ages, shows that in the first year of
life the mortality of the female is
much less than that of the male, being
at birth 92.64 per 1,000 as against
112.80, and at the end of the year,
31.88 as against 35.08, This differ
ence continues up to the fourth year.-
From five to twelve the female mor
tality is greater than that of the male,
being at the latter period 3.56 for
males, and 4. 28 for females. At the
ago of forty-six tha male mortality
equals that of the flemale, the latter
having been up to t 'ais time slightly in
excess. During tho years forty-six to
fifty-six, the period of the climacteric,
the male mortality gains rapidly on
the female, being 6.32 per annum for
the one and only 3.47 for the other.
Hence the' climacteric is really a much
more serious time for man than for
woman. After fifty-six, tho female
mortality gains on that of the male,
but is always slightly below it. Woman
has not only a less mortality and
a greater longevity than man, but
there is, according to Dr. Symonds,
a plurality of female births, though
the contrary view is usually held. Na
ture seems determined to keep up a
full sujply of women. New York

Disease in Railroad Coaches.
In the laboratory of the Imperial
Board of Health of Germany experi
ments were made, and the results which
have been published show,sayB London
Science Siftings, that the seeds of con
sumption were found in abundance in
the dust collected, not only on the
floors, but on the walls anil seats of
the carriages. Samples of dust were
taken from 45 compartmen ts of 21 dif
ferent passenger cars and 1X7 animals
were inoculated with then. Part of
these died very soon thereafter of var
ious contagious diseases before they
had time to develop consumption ; of
the rest, killed four to six weeks after
inoculation, three had tubercles.
These three, howevox, wero inoculat
ed with 'sleeping carriage dust, taken
from the floor, but from the walls cush
ings, and ceilings.
Bacteria at the rate of 78,800 pel
square inch were found on the floor oi
a fourth class carriage, and 34,400,
27,000, and 16,500 per square inch on
the floors of the third, second, and
first class carriages. Thus even in th
latter, the average passenger, who us
ually has at least half a compartment
to himself, say 3,000 square inches ol
floor, has an army of 49,500,000 dead
ly enemies aiming at his vitals on the
floor alone, to say nothing of other
millions in front and rear, on both
flanks, and overhead. It would seem
impossible to escape ; but a Board ol
Health is said to have reported meas
ures for removing or reducing the dan

"Birds get drunk sometimes as well
as men, at least they do down where I
live," said Harvey Ellis of Florida
"I'll tell you how I know it. Ther
is a bush or shrub known as the pridt
of Chica, which is' quite common
down in my state. This bush in the
winter is covered with berries on
which the birds delight to feed. These
berries aro commonly called by uf
mad-berries, from the fact that over-
ndulgence in them produces precisely
the same effect upon the birds that
liquor does on man. One day last
wiater my stable boy brough't a blue-
jay home which he said he found flut
tering about in the road. It would lie
in the boy's hand seemingly perfectly
contented, with eyes elated and fear
less, and its head wagged about in a
ridiculous manner in its efforts to
hold it up. It was a common North
American drunk, nothing more. The
bird had indulged in the mad-berry
until it was reduced to an almost help
less state of intoxication. Thousands
of respectable Northern robins which
migrate to Florida in the winter, and
who would blush to do such a thing at
home, are found lying about in tho
grossest state of intoxication from the
same cause." St. Louis Globe-Dem-'
ocrat.
The Orange Cure fur A'cohollsm.
The new virtue claimed for the or
ange that if consumed systematically
it will wean the veriest sot from all al
coholic potations is being widely dis
cussed in England. " Six oranges per
diem form the ration, to be consumed
at intervals of two or three hours. In
answer to the inquiry propounded in
daily newspapers, "What must a man
do if he can't get oranges? " a cor
respondent says : "Let him take ap
ples. Apples, even more than oranges,
have the power to diminish and, if
eaten systematically, to entirely eradi
cate the craving for stimulants. This
is owing to the malic acid, which com
pletely renovates and purifies the
whole system. If fruit were freely
taken as a part of the daily meals, , we
should hear far less of the- troubles
and ailments now so common. It may
not be generally known that oranges
are also specially valuable in lung
complaints, the acid citrate of potash
preventing the development of pneu
monia," Chicacro Becord.

Cure for the Bines.
In a oertain town a number of cures
were established. .There was a faith
cure, a hot water cure, a cold water
cure and a cure for the blues. Think
ing that in these days of business de
pression and financial stringency, when
more or less accute attacks of the blues
are so prevalent as to be almost epi
demic, a reliable remedy would be a
delight, we give the one recommended
at this cure. On his arrival at the cure
for the blues the patient was shown
into a small office where sat a physi
cian. After questioning the patient a
little he gave him a small box, charg
ing a lew cents lor it, ana cnarging
him to keep the contents a close secret.
In the box was a slip of paper with
these words: "Let no day pass with
out doing something for some one."
This prescription carefully taken . is
guaranteed to cure the most chronio
case. We hope if anyone under whose
eye this may chance to fall, is suffering
from this melancholy disease, he will
give it a trial.
Consumption of Horse Meat in Paris
In the survey of the butcher shops,
one duty is to make sure that horses, ass
and mule meats are not masquerading
as beef. Not that their sale is forbid
den. On the contrary the municipal
laboratory itself has declared this sort
of nourishment "an excellent thing."
It simply demands that the meat be
sold as equine and not bovine, and
that the animal that furnish it be not
decrepid or diseased.
The first point is regulated by estab
lishing shops especially for the sale of
horse meat. Or, if it is sold from a
cart or in a regularly licensed butch
er shop, by requiring that it be mark
ed plainly. The sale of horse meat
has grown to enormous proportions
since the first shop was established in
1866. The estimate is, that it is eaten
now in a third of the Parisian house
holds. In 1891, 21,231 horses,61 mules
mules, 275 asses were sold in the Paris
shops. The meat costs about half as
much as beef. McClure's Magazine.
Necessity of Irrigation Recognized.
The necessitv of improving the con
ditions of agriculture bv means of irri-
gation has been recognized in nearly
all states west of the Mississippi river.
Conventions have been held in North
Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kan
sas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona,
California. Wvominar and Montana for
v
the purpose of more thorousrhlv studv-
ing the question of irrigation and ascer
taining what should be done by the
national government and the several
state Governments in the way of legis
lation to secure the Introduction and
increase of irrigation facilities. The
proceedings of these different conven
tions have have proved valuable to the
states mentioned. In Dakota, Nebras
ka, Kansas and Colorado a large acre
age has been made available within
the.past'two years ntilizing the water
supplies that have heretofore been al
lowed to run to waste. The re-
esults obtained have been hisrhlv
satisfactory, and due effort is being
made to extend the irrigating facilities
in these' states. Ex.

- Uses for Soda.
Tinware may be brightened by dip
ping a damp cloth in common soda
and rubbing it well.
Very hot soda in a solution, applied
with a soft flannel, will remove paint
splashes. Use soda in the water to
clean paint and glass instead of soap.
Strong, tepid soda water will make
glass very brilliant, then rinse in cold
water, wipe dry with linen cloth.
Ceilings that have become smoked
by kerosense lamps may be cleaned by
washing off with soda water.
For cleaning oil paint before re
painting, use two ounces of soda dis
solved in a quart of hot water, then
rinse off with clear water.
A lump of soda laid on the drain
pipe will prevent the pipes becoming
clogged with grease ; also, flood the
pipes once a week with boiling water,
in which a little soda is dissolved.
Wash white marble porches, bath,
etc., with a mop dipped in boiling hot
water and soda. A good deal of soda
should be dissolved in the water.
A little soda put in the water in
which cut flowers are placed will keep
them fresh for a Ion or time.
If grease has been spilt on table or
floor of kitchen or pantry, put a little
soda on the spots and then put boiling
water over them.
Ills Sure Rule of Action.
A well known lawyer on a circuit in
north England, curious to know how a
certain juryman arrived at his verdict,
meeting him one day, ventured to ask:
"Well," replied he, "I'm a plain
man, and I like to be fair to every
one. I don't go by what the witness
say, and I don't go by what the lawyers
say, and I don t go by what the judge
says ; but I look at the man in the
dock, and I says, "He must have done
something or he wouldn't be there, "so
I bring 'email in guilty." Argonaut.
A great mistake in division is made
when you divide your earnings with
the saloon keeper.
KNOWLEDGE
Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the world's best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative ; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid?
nevs, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance. :
Syrup of .Tigs is for sale by all drug
gists in 60c and $1 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Pear line; for easy washing and clean

housekeepers in this land must have

with Pearline. The wise woman who

increasing sale proves it. The truth
is, there's nothing so acceptable as
Pearline. Once accept its help, and
youll decline the imitations they
don't help you. It washes clothes or
cleans house. It saves labor and it
saves.wear. It hurts nothing, but it's
to everything. Try it when it
