A Itleato 010 trier WAIL A Guelph Writs Photograph Found on the t meld or Rata°. Under this heading is the following inter- iesting paragraph, contained in the Globe of Monday, Sept. 26th, 1864, handed to us by Mr. G. G. Moore: Capt. Doyle, of the Federal army in Georgia, formerly editor of the Ingersoll Chronicle, in a communication to that paper, relates the following affecting incident: There are many Canadians in this army • I meet them everywhere, and many of them fill honored positions as aide -de -camps, regimental and staff officers. You will be -pleased to learn that they are among the bravest of the brave, and while standing by the Federal flag in its crusade against anan's enslavement, they lose none o their love for the dear old flag that sheltered them in infancy. Speaking of Canadians reminds me of an incident that !occurred to me at Resaca on the 15th of May, that left its impression upon inef Riding rapidly through the woods convey- ing an order to a General commanding in Cille portion of the line'I came to an open field where I expected to find the comman- der, but who had fallen back a little to a new position. Spurring my horse to its ut- enostspeedtopeevent the rebel sharpshooters, a few yards distant, from getting range upon me, I dashed across the field in the direction of our skirmishers, when the horse, which had become so accustomed to shells and bullets, that he seemed to partake of a martial spirit, suddenly, with a snort, sprung aside, nearly dismounting nee. Turning my eyes I dis- covered: a sergeant in Federal uniform laying half hidden in one of our rifie-pits, and by his hand an open portrait lay upon the ground. Curiosity prompted me, not- withstanding the shower of lead and iron that swept the field, to see the portrait. Dismounting I picked up the portrait, and turned to the dead sergeant's pockets to Kot some record of his name, that I might '? gladden the heart of some friend by return - mg them the treasure. But I was doomed to disappointment, for while turning out his pockets a yell alarmed me, and looking up I beheld throe rebels advancing to capture ene. Throwing myself upon my swift horse secured the picture and escaped At night, after the din of arms had subsided, I examined the portrait, and lound it to be that of a very beautiful young lady, apparently about 24 years of age. In the case was folded a slip of paper, apon which was delicately written, "Accept thi, Harry, and when you gaze upon it remember that I pray eo.ch night to our Heavenly Father for the dause in which you are endangering your life, and that you may be worthy of claiming the substance as your own, when bronzed by Southern suns you return to me flushed with victory, but uncorrupted by your intercourse with the corrupt world. Farewell till then.—A. H., Guelph, C. W., 1862." There was no mark to tell the name of the dead hero, but I :mailed the portrait the next dayto the address above with particulars, hoping that it might reach the fair lady that watched and waited for his coming, but who, alas, -will watch and wait in vain. HE WAS STRUCK OPT. The Crank Told Pits Advenhares arid the Umpire Ploored "Were you ever in love before ?" she asked, looking trustfully to her athletic lover. Ile was a baseball crank, but he was truthful, so he was compelled to answer: 4‘ Many a time, but—" " But what? Tell me about them." " Well, you see, I was left on first." " 0, that means your first girl went back on you ?" " Of course. Then I tried to steal second." "Eloped ?" "That's it But I was thrown out" "Her father ?" "Big brother. Next time I fouled." "The girl wouldn't have anything to 'do -with you ?" "You've got it And then I batted a fly and the left fielder got it." "Some fellow you had cut out before ?" " Sure. But this is the first time I ever bit safe, and rin going to mice a home run. See?" " Well, guess not," broke in the gruff voice of the girl's pa. " ou're going to be Amok out.

The Post -office Department makes a simple but practical suggestion to the public rela- tive to the complaints that postage stamps will not adhere to letters and packages. Complaints are made that the stamps have not sufficient mucilige upon them, but it is suspected that too much is taken off in the process of wetting them. It is therefore, suggested by the Departmental officials that, instead of the stamps being moistened, the envelopes or packages be wetted, and the stamps then affixed. Tt is thought all cause of complaint will be removed if this plan be followed. In the last six months $75,000,000 in gold has bit this country.

MOONLIGHT SWEETHEARI'l Hints to Our Niels in These Roman titer Evenings. The man le the moon is a very in person. He sees a great many this he never tells about • but in this gi mer time, won't you be a tittle care when he looks down on you he will to gossip to the stars and the dail papers about what yeu are doing, it is no innocent ? Won't you just r that while the moon lookdown sailing at night alone with some fay mirer, he is thinking to himself all t " How foolish that girl is to go just the one man. lie cannot talk and manage the boat too; and certain to be trouble. Why in th did she not have a whole party c with her ?" Now, that is a ve thought of the gentleman who liv the znoon. Then, when he sees you oolong through the woods a mile from ho ne, and. only one of the most charming fellm s in the world with you ; sees you hunting or wild flowers under his dim light, and notice the immense amount of interest you take in each other, he apparently shrugs his shoul- ders and thinks out loud, " Well, well 1 What a lot of foolishness there is in girls, anyway. She will catch cold out in the night air with nothing around her; she won't find half as many flowers as she would if my friend, the sum was shining bright; and she will probably trip over a stone or a fallen branch. Even if she wanted totcome out just to talk to the ii young man she s very foolish, because he would think she was a great deal more desirable if she insisted on staying at home and sitting on the veranda where all the rest of the people are. Be would talk to her quietly ,and he would think how mod' nicemit was for her to be there than to be out rambling in the woods even with him, for, if she went with him it is just possible she might go with any other man who asked her." The man in the moon is very, very wise. He has looked down upon millions andtbillions of girls, and he knows what he is talking about; and if you take his advice and mine the little bit of sweethearting that goes on under the moonlight will be where all the rest of the people are. --Ladies' Home Journal. HUNGER AT BREAKFAST. That It Is Not Present Is the Eater's Own Fault. Breakfast is rather a failure as a meal with town men. That ought not to be ; there is something wrong when & man is not vigorously hungry in the tnorning. Where is the fault? asks the Hospital. Is it in the late dinner? Not in the dinner, probably, so much as what is drunk at dinner ; in that and in the nervous strain of the times. It does not matter whether we dine in the middle of the day or in the evening, so long as we dine judiciously. But the man who has much work to do, and particularly brain work, can not dine, in the middle of the day. If he does he must make up his mind to lost at least an hour of his most valuable time. A light luncheon at mid-day, with .no stimulant stronger than a cup of coffee or a bottle of ginger also, is the suitable thing. But this -must on no account be used as a substitute for dinner. He who lunches in this way at mid-day must dine in the evening, and dine well. The business man Should dine at half -past six, or at latest half past seven. The lazy man may dine when he likes. The man who has earned his dinner should have a good one—not heavy, but nutritious; not to elaborate, but well selected and well cooked. He should drink, if possible, only one kind of wine and that a light one, sparkling or still. Spirits and beer he should avoid. Dinner should be the last meal of the day, except for those who can not sleep without a little food on their stomachs. These may take a cup of cocoa, with a little thin bread and butter, just at the moment of going to bed. If attention be paid to these suggestiozis, very few people will fail to be hungry at breakfast. A DORRESPONDZNT of the Toronto Satur- day Night asked the editor in last week's issue how it was that church members— especially those of the .Anglican persuasion —were so exclusive towards strangers, and pave an instance in point. Certainly there is a great deal of stand -offishness in some churches. But sometimes we believe it is as much the fault of the strangers as of any one else, they seeming to repel any advances that others might be inclined to make them. Exclusiveness, however, is not confined th the Churchof England. We heard of a case also in Toronto in connec- tion with the Presbyterian Church to which Rev. Dr. Kellogg so ably ministers. Last summer three young people—a brother and two siaters—just out from the old coun- try, attended the Sunday services for a week or two, and on a general invitation from the pulpit attended a week day meet- ing of one of the societies hi connection with the church The principal theme of the various speakers was the duty of the mem- bers to make strangers coming to the church feel at home, to give them the right hand of fellowship and welcome them to their midst. Curiously enough, however, the young man and his sisters were allowed to enter the meeting, sit it out and to retire at the close without a single individual speak- ing a word to them or recognizing them in any way, although they were entire strangers in the city and thousands of miles from home. Needless to say, that church lost all attraction for them. —After a man passes 40 the greatest hero in the world to him is the man who became famous after 50. 'lam New York Herald tells of a 15 -year- old boy, Eddie Seifert, who is alive and hi full possession of his faeulties despite the fact that he carries the two halves of a rifle bullet in different Farts of his brain. There is no question that the boy's brain Wes badly lacerated, and, following the books, four phyaicians declared his recovery abso- lutely out of the question. But the fact that in just seven weeks from the time the wound tyro received he shows no signs et it other than a natural pallor from the conem quent confinement and a bad scar proves conclusively gulf; the laceration of the brain from a gunehot wound ia not ner esserily fatal and the books Will have to be revised.

No person call make a goo4 quality of butter unless they have proper appliances to work with. The thermometer is abso- lutely essential in the dairy, and yet how many dairymen possess one? The old up- aocbdown dash Churn, whieh many still use, is simply a -woman-killer, while the butter - bowl which many use to work the butter in is enought to wear a person out. In the matter of milk-setthig, the professor said : "1 prefer the deep setting cans, either the ordinary " shotgln " cans set in ice-cold water or the "Cooley" cans, which are totally submerged in cold water, in either of these cans, the cream is more perfectly separated than in the shal- low pans. But it would pay any dairyman who milks from ten to twenty cows to pur- chase a centrifugal maohine which will separate the cream completely from the milk directly, it comes from the cow. One can be purchased for $150 that will separate 250 pounds (25 gals.) per hour, and can be easily worked by hand. The price is high, but the increased Melia of cream obtained from the milk and the small amount of labor involved will soon repay the expense. The skim milk is also obtained warm, and can be fed immediately. We now have one of these machines at the college and can strongly recommend them for general use among farmers. . Many questions were asked during the professors address, all bearing on the sub- ject discussed. Cream from deep cans was supplied for this churning by Mrs. Alex. Shene, from which were made 6i lbs. butter. Two hundred and twenty-four pounds milk were set to obtain sufficient cream to make this amount of butter. Several samples of milk were brought for testing, which showed the following per- centage of fat : No. 1, 4.4 per cent. ; No. 2, 4.2; N . 3, 2.4; No. 4, 3.9; No. 5, 5.0; No. 6, 3.6; No. 7, 0.5 (skim milk) ; No. 8, 0.3 (butter- milk). Sunderland, which is about twelve miles from Uxbridge, was visited on Saturday, August lat, and a meeting held at about 9 a. m. in the large hall owned by Mr. Walshe. A good sprinkling of farmers and their wives attended, several prize butter - makers being among the number. Sunder- land is a small village, and the farmers about do not as a rule turn out to agri- cultural meetings. They turned out in good force, however, to see the travelling dairy. On motion of Mr. Henry Glendenning, Mr. W. Shier took the chair. Mr. Shier expressed himself as greatly pleased that the Hon. Mr. Dryden had instituted this dairy. There were some people, he said, who would not attend these meetings on the ground that the dairy was sent out by the Provincial Government, and they, as Con- servatives, would not attend. What a piece of folly this was—to drag politics into everything. If these people would only attend the meeting they would see for themselves that the dairy was not a polit- ical dodge, but something calculated to be of great benefit to the farmers, as well as to the public at large. I am a Conservative myself, said Mr. Shier, but I am not one of those who oppose anything instituted by the Opposition when I see that it is doing a great deal of good. Mr. Dryden, I know, is doing his best for the farming community and we ought to uphold him in this. Prof. Dean then spoke on the dairy ques- tion in general, advising the farmers to be more systematic in their methods of work, to give up selling such large quantities of rain and give more attention to dairying. He was followed by Mr. Palmer, who lectured on the care of milk and cream for butter -making. Cream was obtained from Mrs. John Glen- denning which which was churned at 59*. Forty-six pounds cream obtained from 268k pounds milk made 10 pounds butter. Only two samples of. milk were brought to test. One of skim milk from deep cans showing 0.6 per cent. fat; one of new mills, 5.6 per cent. and buttermilk, 0.4 per cent. After the dairy utensils had been thor- oughly inspected by those present, the meeting broke up. —Berlin, with 1,315,600 people, has only 26,800 dwellings. —A five ton meteor will be exhibited at the World's Fair. —One marriage out of four in Japan in- variably ends in a divorce.

No social customs have changed so much as those of &biking wine at and after dinner. In the year 1835 the Gentian Von Rammer, dining with our Prime Minister, relates how they drank toasts from 7 to 12.30. In the year 1820 a writer on dinners lays down a few simple rules which he recommends everyone to lay to heart and to practice. For instance port being the only drink, be advises everybody on the completion of his third bottle—heavens ! the third bottle 1 -- to getup stairs and join the ladies. He will there be invited to take a cup of coffee. Let him swallow it very slowly in sips, so that if he takes a hand at whist afterwards he may not mistake an ace for a deuce, or a knave for a king. 041 going home, if he is sleepless, the following gentle opiate is recommended : A wine glassful of rum, another of brandy, half a glass of arrack, half a glass of curaccm, two or three limes, a little sugar, two wine glasses of water, all stirred together and drank slowly will, the reader is assured, procure the most restless man a night of sweet and sound sleep. After three bottles of port such a gentle opiate would send one of us poor degenerate moderns straight into a world of sleep from which there Is no waking. And this was only seventy years ago.— ralter Besant.

It should not be allowed to continue, as in its debility the system is especially liable to serious attacks of illness. It is re- markable how beneficial Hood's Sarsa- parilla is in this enervating state. Pos- sessing just those elements which the system needs and readily seizes, this medicine purifies the blood, and im- parts a feeling of strength and self-con- fidence. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the hest remedy for that weakness which pre- vails at change of season, climate or life. Sarsacerilla "1 believe it is to the use of Hood's Sarsaparilla that I owe my present health. In the spring, I got so com- pletely run down I could not eat or sleep, and all the dreaded diseases of life seemed to have a mortgage on my system. I was obliged to abandon iny work, and after seeking medical treat- ment and spending over $so for different preparations, I found myself no better. Then my wife persuaded Inc to try a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla, Before the first bottle was gone I began to amend. I have now used two bottles and have gained et: pounds.
