AN ASTONISHING , TONIC for vsomi McELREE' S Colored Folk-Lore Society A Knife Thai's Been Here The Champion Turnip. Gastonia Gazette. December 24th.. King's Mountain is a daisy and deserves lo be l rh back. Her commissioners recently passed two ordinances which make good news for the papers even if they should fail to serve their . nr pose. One is a fowl ordinance which tines people $1 a day for letting; their chickens or fowls of any kind ran at large on their neighbors' premises. The other ordinance forbids a hog pen nearer than 300 feet to any well or dwell ing in town. This rples the pig raisers oat altogether, and they are in the same state of mind some of our Gastonia folks were in a year or so ago. ....The cham pionship belt for reporting the largest, turnip of this season is claimed by this paper. The turnip was brought us last Saturday by Mr. John Cox. It was grown by his father, Mr. E E. Cox, near Lowell, aud weighed 14J pounds clear of tops. It was a foot high aud 27 inches around The White Globe is the seedmen's name for the variety.- ....The only folk lore society of the kind in exist ence, we suppOse,is one in Gasto nia organized and conducted, by the colored people, its principal promoter keiug Dr. B. F. Martin. But its chief inspiration is derived not so much from the folk-lore feature as frOm a purely historical feature. Much has been written of slavery and slave life from the master's side, but uot juuch from the slave's point of view. . Those who were once slaves and are con versant with the negro side of slave life are fast falling .from the ranks of the colored people. In this society the good feilowship of the most' aged iembars is care fully fostered. From time to time rhey are called upon, in fact they readily volunteer, to relate from memory the mnamerable quaint and often thrilling recollections re corded therei Three secretaries are employed to write down what these entertaining er-slave vet erans relate. What these interest ing old people know is thus turned into recorded history and may on day iiud its way into a valuable book. It belongs to Mr. John F. Wilson, the knife does, and he has had it 22 years. He bought it new that long ago from Eli as & Goheu, Charlotte. Mr. Ed Mellon was clerking for them at the time and sold Mr. Wilson the knife. It is a three blade Wostenholm, aud while, of course, it has seen better days, it is still capable of doing a great deal of whittling, aud is bandy enough in cutting off a chew of tobacco. The knife, it will be noted, is old enough to vote. Rutherford Ripples. Rutherford Videt. Dec. 25. Mr. Z. A. Edwards has been ap pointed Mayor of Kutberfordton instead of Mr. J. F. Flack, re signed.

One of the moat interesting paperi read at the celebration in Boston of the fiftieth anniversary of tho first adminis tration of ether In surgioal operation, Bays the Philadelphia Record, wai that by Dr. John Aahhunt of this city on "Surgery Before the Days of Anaesthet ics. " It vividly recalls the horrors of those days when the surgeon's knife was an object of far greater terror than now and inflicted untold tor tares npea tbe conscious patient. "A study of the condition of surgery before the days of ansosthesia," said Dr. Ashhurat, "reveals on the one hand a picture of heroic boldness and masterly ell control on tbe part of the surgeon, and on the other a ghastly panorama, sometimes of stoio fortitude and endur ance, sometimes of abject terror and hu miliation but always of agonizing wretchedness and pain on the part of the unhappy victim who required the surgeon's aid. "The 'pitilessness' which Ccions urged as an essential trait in the operative sur geon was, before the days of anaesthesia, a feature in the surgeon's career which impressed very strongly the pnblio gen erally as well as those immediately con nected with the operation. It is inter esting to recall that Sir James Simpson of Edinburgh, shortly after beginning his professional studies, was so affected by 'seeing the terrible agony of a poor Highland woman under amputation of the breast' that he resolved to abandon a medical career and seek other occupa tion. Happily his Intention was recon sidered, and he returned to his studies, asking himself, 'Can anything be done to make operations leas painful?' and, as every one known, in less thai SO years be became a high priest of anaes thesia and the introducer into surgical and obstetrical practice of ether's great rival, chloroform. "No braver or more gallant gentle man ever lived than Admiral Viscount Kelson, and after bla right elbow bad been shattered by a French bullet in tbe assault at Tenerife he manifested the utmost courage, refusing to be taken to tbe nearest ship lest the sight of his in jury should alarm the wife of a fellow officer whose own fate was uncertain, and when his own ship was reached he climbed up its side without assistance, saying: 'Tell the surgeon to make haste and get his instruments. I know I must lose my right arm, so the sooner it is off the better.' 'He underwent the amputa tion, we learn from a priTate letter of one of his midshipnieu, 'with the same firmness and courage that have always marked his character.' And yet so pain fully was he affected by the coldness of the operator's knife that when next go ing into action at the famous battle of the Kile he gave standing orders to bis surgeons that hot water should always be kept in readiness during an engage ment, so that if another operation should be required he might at leant have the poor comfort of being cut with warm instruments. "On the side of the surgeon we fin i throughout the ages a constant effort to diminish the terrors cf t jH-rations and a continuous reprobation of the distress ful, not to say cruel, modes of prac tice adopted by preceding generations. And yet the time is not very far distant from ours when they lopped off a limb by striking it violently with a beary knife; that time when they knew nei ther bow to stop nor bow to prevent hemorrhage but by burning the part whence the blood jetted with boiling oil or the redhot iron; that time when sur geons armed themselves at every mo ment with pinchers, with burning omu Uries and with instruments the repre sentations even of which cause terror. "But the presence of pain wan not tbe only evil dreaded by our prcdocranors In attempting important opcrutlta a. The great risk of fatal accident from some In voluntary movement of tbe patient was constantly preeent to tbe mind of tbe conscientious surgeon. 'How often, says Dr. Valentine Mott, wben operating tn some deep, dark wound, along the coon of some great vein, with thin walls al ternately distended and flaccid with the vital current bow often have I dreaded that some unfortunate struggle of the patient would deviate tbe knife a little from its proper course and that I, who fain would be the deliverer, should in voluntarily become the executioner, see ing my patient perish in my hands by the most appalling form of death I Had be been insensible I should have felt no alarm. "Coming down to tbe days more im mediately preceding tbe date of the great discovery, we find that opium and alcohol were the only agents which con tinued to be regarded as of practical value in diminishing the pain of opera tions, though the attendant disadvan tages of their employment were of course recognized. Meanwhile facts were aocu nrulating the significance of which we now plainly recognise, but which ex cited no attention. "Sir Humphry Davy, in the early days of the nineteenth century, suggest ed the use of nitrous oxide gas as au anaesthetic in minor operations, and it was the custom at some of our medical schools at the University of Pennsyl vania, for one for students to breathe 'laughing gas,' as it was then called, for diversion. But yet and yet sur geons went on, in every country, cutting and burning, and patients went on writhing and screaming, until on the 16th day of October, in the year 1846, in the Massachusetts General hospital. Dr. John C Warren painlessly removed a tumor from a man who had previously been etherized by Dr. William T. O. Morton, and surgical anaesthesia be came the priceless heritage of the civi lized world." TALE OF A RUNAWAY PIG. His Foadns For potato Fatehoa Led Illas lata Trouble. Io the old home we once had funny little pig. He was generally to be seen in the act of running away. Hardly ever do I remember seeing , bis face toward me. He also bad a knack of getting away from all the other pigs. The field next the bouse the "home field," aa we used to call it was a kind of common for the hogs, cattle and fowls. Tbe next was potato field, and the little pig bad taken it into bis bead to get into that one. How be got in no one eould tell, for the field was well fenced and there was do opening through which he could enter. How did he get in? One day. I watched. He wandered in a sort of onnotioeable way toward crooked old log, across which tbe fence bad been built Suddenly, though closely watching, X lost sight of my little friend. But before I bad recovered from my surprise I was astonished to see him in the potato field. iWell, now, that is very strange," I said. "How did he do it?" 1 went to the old log. and, lo, It was hollow. . The whole trick became quite clear to me. I went into the potato field to drive him out, intending to steer bim toward the end of the log so that he might get out the same way he got in. Hero he bad the beet of me entirely. He either could not or would not see tbe log and maintained such an air of ignorance on that point that I had to give up the tak in despair, drive him out by the gate and bring him home by a long, round about way. The next day I made up my mind to play a trick on him, and I did. I went out very early and moved the log just a little so that both ends would be in the "home field." Then I stood at some distance off and watched. I never was more amused in my life. He separated himself from the other pigs and then went toward the old log and got in and through it and (as he evidently thought) got out into the potato field. I could understand this by the way he immediately began to sniff for the potatoes. But, finding none, be seemed somewhat puzzled. . Somehow it dawned on bim that be was still in the ' 'home field," and he con cluded that he had not gone through the log. So he went through it onoe more, but only to find himself again in the "home field." This seemed 1 puzzle him more than ever. He looked around in astonishment. I could clearly see that expression on bis face. For a moment be stopped and was evidently thinking very bard. Once more be got through tbe log. with the same result of finding himself in the "home field." This time, I am sure, if be could have talked be would bare cried out, "Spooks l" He stood quite still for few seconds, niSed tbe air, and I could distinctly see the bristles on his back gradually rising up on end. Suddenly be ottered a peculiar kind of "bock" and ran with all his might toward tbe other pigs. The little pig was never seen in that part of the field again. Many time we tried to drive bim to the old log, but we could not get bim to ga Ladies' Journal. A BOY AND AN ORANGE. Laareoeo UoIIm Telia new tie Itwsst. md to at Tsaiotallea la nie Tooth. The bey was taught, from tbe earliest wakening of bis reasoning powers, tbst truth was to be told and to be respected and that nothing was more wicked or more cngentletuanly than m broken promise. He learned very early to do as he was told and not to do, under any consideration, what he bod said be would sot da Upon this last point bo was strictly conscientious, although ooce, literally, be "beat about tbe tmab." His Aunt Margaret, always devoted to plants and to flowers, bad, on the bock stoop of bis grandfather's bouse, a little grove cf orange and lemon trees in pots. Some one of these was nsually in fruit or in flower, and tbe fruit to tbe boy waa-a great temptation. He was very fond" of oranges, and it seemed to bim that a "homemade" orange, which be bad never tatted, must be ranch better than a grocer's orange, as homemade cake was certainly preferable even to the wonderful cakes made by tbe pro fessional Mrs. Milderberger. He watched those little green oranges from day to day as they gradually grew big and yellow in the sun. He promised faithfully that be would not pick any, but be bad a notion that some of them might drop off. He never shook the trees, because be said be would not But be shook the stoop, and be bung about tbe bush, which he was too bonest to beat One unusually tempting orange, which he bad known, from its budhood. finally overcame bim. He did not pick it off. be did not shake it off. He compromised with bis conscience by lying fiat on his back and biting off a piece cf it It was not a very good action, nor was it a good orange, and for that reason, perhaps, be went home immediately and told cn himself. He told his mother. He did not tell bis Aunt Margaret His mother did not seem to be as much shocked at bis conduct as he was. But in her own quaint way she gave bim to understand that promises were not made to be cracked any more than they were made to be broken that be bod been falxe to himself in heart, if not in deed, aud that be must go bark and make it "all right" with bis Aunt Mar garet She did not seem to be very much shocked cither; be could not tell why. But they punished the boy. They made bim eat the rest ot tbe orange. He lost all subsequent interest in that tropical glade, aud be bas never cared much for doiucatio oranges since.
