HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1892-12-23, Page 7DECEMBER 23, 1892. A New and Wonderful Invention In reading a newspaper recently I came across an account of a new and wonderful invention. It is s wonderful that I feel it my duty to sprt ad the news so thatthe public may be forewarned, for people have been known to indulge in fits on less pro- vocation then the exhibition of this new in- vention. Suppose you should wake up some gloomy morning in the fall, and rush to the -window to see what the weather was to be. And while you are looking at the gray clouds,and speculating as to whether it would rain or xiot, suppose you should see the following sentence in bright letters suddenly shine above, "Are you Prepared ?" Of course you wouldn't be prepared for any such demonstrations and might imag- ine that some dire disaster was predicted unless you waited to see what came next, and saw the following flash fdrth : Are you prepared for a rainy day? If not stop _ on the way down town and buy one of Peters's Umbrellas ?" To see any such advertisement appear in the sky would be decidedly startling, and therefore it is well to be warned. An Eng- lishman has succeeded in perfecting an elec- tric apparatus that enables him to cast luminous letters and figures upon the clouds, so this warning is by no means unnecessary. It ie quite possible that such an advertisement may some day be seen. It would certainly beta great novelty at • firer, and after a while could be made use - fill. Any great piecs of news might be thrown upon the sky so that thousands could read. The portraits of prominent men might be given, and already Mr. Glad - stone's familiar face has• shone on high. Ships on the ocean could signal each other at night, and tell each other all the news, o that the paissengers might understand also, and not worry the captain to death by questioning. In a fog at sea the steamer might anchor, and throw out from all sides signs of warn- ing, snob as "No Treepassing I Go Slow, We are here ! if a man wanted to hire a house, or had one to let, he might advertise the same mi the clouds, and feel certain that it would be viewed by a great number of people. He could also give a picture of the house, if he so desired, and then they would know just what he wanted, or what he had. There is abaolutely no end to the achemes suggested by this new invaastiou. But there is also a saeihought in connec tiara with it, for a report further says that on clear nights, when there are no clouds, the inventor has found a way to manufacture artificial ones. This is really too bad. The moonlight is often very desirable for straw - rides or sleighing or other 4ugernents, and it would be very sad indeed to have a moon- light party broken up by an artificial cloud shutting out the moon, and have a sign star- ing down upon youoadvising you to "Go. to - Jones for Shoes !" This, to, might possibly happen at some future time, and it is well to be prepared. But what a shame it would be to have the skies at night converted into advertising sign boards! And what would poets do in the future if they couldn't see the " stat - gemmed heaven, etc.," and so be unable to write about them? The Bashful Man's Mistake. A bashful young man had a tender regard for the daughter of a certain farmer living not a great many miles from this city. The youlag man in question had acquired the habit of visiting the young lady, who was the subject of his affections, on Sunday af- ternoon. As time wore on the young man began to feel more at borne on his visits to the farm house, and from an occasional stepping for supper it grew to be a regular thing fer him to eat supper with his pros- pective parents-in-law. This was very agreeable to the young man, but quite the contrary to the parents-in-law. He was treated coolly by the old folks, but the warmth of his own feelings for the young lady and the reciprocity by the young lady was such that a slight coolness was not felt. Upon one of the occasions when the young man was taking Sunday supper with the family the good housewife had prepared a bountiful supply of biscuits. When they had seated themselves at the table the pros- pective father-in-law passed the plate of biscuits to the bashful young man. "Have a biscuit?" he said. The bashful young man set one of the steaming biscuits beside his pate: d Have another,they're small," the father- in-law said. The bashful young man timidly took an- other and placed it beside the first. r "Have another, they're very small." Again the young man, lacking the cour- age to decline, took a biscuit. The father-in-law to be, then dumped the whole contents of the plate in front of the young man, with the remark, 't Take them all, you hog f." The bashful young man stopped his visits and biscuits for supper always causes a smile to go roiled the table at that farm house.— Indianapcdis Journal. Tuckersmith. COISNCIL.—The -Council net at Dixon's Hotel, on the 13th of December. The Mem- bers were all present. John Fortune made application to have the engineer called to examine a certain ditch made under an award, which Mr. M. McQuade, whose duty it wad to maintain the part in question after due notice, had failed to repair. The clerk was instructed to call the engineer. ,The elaim of Mr. Pieher, for .damage to land and wa=te of gravel, caused by want of care and attention on the part Of pathmasters and coittractore, was settled by paying Mr. Fisher pa, The claim of Mr. Sibbens, for alleged illegal removal of gravel remains un- settled. The annual meeting of electors, for the nomination of -candidates to fill the offices of reeve, deputy -reeve and council loss, will take place at Dixon's ha,I1,on Mon- ' day, the 26th of, December, at 12 o'clock, noon. If a poll ia necessary, polls will be opened at the usual places. The deputy re-. turning officers are: Joseph Weber, for polling subdivision No. ; Wm. C. Lands - borough, for No. 2; S. Smillie, for No. 3 ; Simon Hunter, for No. 4. The time for the payment of taxes was extended a few days, to enable the collector to return the toll with the work of collection completed. A number of accounts were paid, which Will appear in the annual financial statement to be shortly published. The Council ad- journed to meet again, if necessary, at the call of the reeve.—S. SMILLIE, Clerk. - ----at Where the Money Goes. Every woman who has not a large fortune of her own, or a most amiable Orcesue for a husband, often asks herself: "How do I apend so much money ?" How often do I find that, having so little to show for it, all that certain slam is gone ! How often the lead pencil and paper came iota play to prove to one's self that she has not been robbed or lost something ! Most people live up to their incomes,, many be- yond them, without at all intending to do so. "Where does the money go to 9" people cry again and again. After all, the question is easy enough to answer. The money goes so mysteriattaly for what one might call the Arahroidery of life. Beef, mutton and potatoes do not inn away with any great sum. ftingeroread may he added to bread and butter, and apple sauce and dried fruits grace the table, at a cost miraculously small. But plum pudding and imported preserves, beautiful glass jars and pots, and china bottles of eatables that tempt one before they are opened much more than they de afterward, double the grocer'a bill. A cliah of ehicken salad from the restahr- ant, fancy biscuit in tin cans—these, and a host of other things, "add up ;" not those plain comfortable articles of diet which, af- ter all you like best, Money is earned to be spent, but if you wonder where it goes in housekeeping, look at those unnecessary but expensive items, and you will know. So in dress. A dress costs less than Its buttons sometimes. The fringe and lace and jet beading costs more than two or three gowns. The plumes on a hat, the light kid gloves you wear,the "illusion "and chiffon trimming, swallow the money that you use for your wardrobe. Have these things if you can afford them. Why not? And your trimmings are what cold;; not your flannels and muslins and merinos, or even your silks. I have no doubt that the sum expended on the wardrobe of a genuine Quakeress, despite its excellent quality, would surprise a fashionable lady by its in- significance, So, too, in furniture. Beds and bureaus, book -cases and arm chairs last a long while, and you, at least, do not wonder where their price went. The thousand trifles, that per- ish under the house -maid's cdusting brush, the silken cushions and embroidered tidies are the real expenses. I love to see beautiful things that tell of womanly care about the house'but they are what the money goes for in that direction. We waste it (if it is waste; as to that let each One decide for herself) not on our needs but c& our fancies. I rather think we get the most happiness out of our fancies, af- ter all. Still, let us at least know what we. are about. The trimmings of life,and those little things we buy because they only cost 25 cents, though we have no use for them melt away our dollars. Tales Out of School. I once taught a country school out in the west,and although I did not "board 'round," I sometimes went home with different pupils and spent the night. One evening a little red-ohaired, freckle - faced girl named Sally H-- came up to my desk at noon and said: . "Please, sir, ma says will you come home With me, and stay all night to -night ?" "I don't believe that I can to -night, Sally," I said. "I will see about it after school." "I wish you would, sir," said Sally, coaxingly; "'cause if.you don't we won't have cake with frosting on it for supper." At another time I went to the house of a farmer who had such a large family that one or two of the smaller children could not come to the table for lack of room, • There was on the table a pitcher of very nice newly -made sorghum molasses, a rural delicacy of which I was very fond. I was helping myself to the sorghum the tecond time, when Dannie, one of the little boys who had to wait, said in a shrill and anxious whisper to his mother : "Maw, does he know that that's all of them merlasees we've got, and that me and Jackey ain't had any yet ?" i At another farm house' a little boy of about six years was my bed fellow, and after we had gone to bed, and I had blown out our candle, the little boy said th nie in a confiding whisper : "Say, teacher ?" " Well, Jerry ?" "Did you notice that big stonelar on that shelf in the corner ?" 1 " Yes, 1 saw it." "It's full of fried cakes." " Oh, is it ?" 6 " Yes ; and there's a lot of splindid big Belleflower apples under this beddt " Indeed ?" . . i "Yes, sir; mother don't anew me to touch 'ern, but I don't think she'cl bay any- thing if you got up and got some for both of us!"

Here is a short sermon bya iecenan,though not preached from a pulpit. -It is a .good one, and is pretty sure to hie rour own case somewhere, whatever may bit your age and circumstancee : "The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness ; to an opponent tolerance; to a friend your heart ; to your child, a good example; to ybur father,- def- erence; to your mother, ednduot that will make her proud of you; to yourself,respect i to all men, charity.' —The Interior. - ------a To Country Et, iris. If your lives have fallen into some quiet, unpretentious place, do not complain that it is dull and commonplace, and that "there / Varieties. , ' THE HURON EXPOSITOR. is nothing to live for here," as I have heard so many do. Why, dear heart, there ie no place on God's earth to bleak and bar- ren, so quiet and lonely, so wind swept and rain-biaten, but that there is a great deal to live for right there, and when you have grown a little older you will see it with clear eyes; and you will look back to the country village and wish—oh, how you will wish ! —that you had been happy and content in that simple life. You wiil know, then,that it is nobler to live well a humdrum life than to wear out body and 1, mind and soul in a fever of gaiety and, frillnIty, and to stretch out your empty hands hilways to something you cannot seize. Better to sing babies to sleep in the soft twilights that fold down over a cottage home, than to loll in velvet carriages and laugh at the brainless nonsense that men of the world whitper into your jewelcd ears. And better, far better, to dwell forever away from the lights, and the roar, and the temptations, and the sins of the city, with a clean heart and a pure soul, than to let the city's passionate unrest creep into yona pulses and tet them to beating in a mad chase after—death, -- Amber, in Goodform., 9 How to Save Your Money.
