FILTH USED AS HOOD.
THE POOR OF NEW YORK Livn
TAINTED MEAT AND VEGETBLES.
Spasmodic efforts have been made
by the health authorities of this city to
prevent the sale of spoiled food, writes
a New York correspondent, Unfortun-
ately for the health of the city. these
efforts are not long sustained or very
aWeeping. They do not cover enough
:ground. Spoiled food is so common
And offensive that it is impossible to
-wholly get away from it. Decayed
fruit and vegetables are exhibited in
front -of every grocery. Stinking fish
,and meats taints the air of every small
butcher shop. These are all sold to
somebody. 'Very often they are slyly
tucked'into.an order of persons who
have paid for a sound and healthy ar-
ticle, though they are mostly disposed
of at a low figure to the poorer popula-
tion; Even first-class grocers are not
,abcive putting in a spoiled banana,
4, rotten orange, a couple of decayed
peaches, or something of that kind at
the bottom of the measurb where the
customer has paid for sound food. And
• your butcher is not apt to tell you that
the „cut you are getting is a trifle taint-
ed, but will next morning listen to
your complaint with careless indiffer-
ence or a look of injured , innocence.
This hurts nobody except in temper,
' because you will not eat the spoiled
food anyhow, and only swear at being
robbed. As you cannot stand by with
a club to see your order put up, and
haven't the nerve to demand a smell of
e meat every time beforelt is Cut,
thorstiltise repeated until you begin to
-.accept it as a-neeessary_evd.
• But with the very poor it is quite
different. On the lookout for a cheap
article they fall upon spoiled food of
all kinds as a regular diet. When one
sees what is sold here every day and
carried home for family consumption,
It seems wonderful that epidemics of
various diseases do not tread upon
each other's heels and sweep away
multitudes. I have no doubt that tens
of thousands die here annually from
the food that was spoiled when sold
them, and was known at the time to
be so spoiled by the seller.
THOUGHTS THAT BREATHE.
He who chasestwo hares will catch
neither.
If you set up for a growler, you can
always be busy.
The right kind of a smile never hurts
a prayer meeting.
Self deception is one of the most
deadly of all dangers.
Every time you look at a sin it seems
to become better -looking.
There is no mansion in heaven for
the man who is mean to his wife.
The only sins that God cannot for-
give are those you desire to keep.
Men are just as ready to hate you
for your virtues as for your faults.
There isn't a bit of religion in mak-
ing a boy do a man's work with a dull
hoe.
No man has a thorough taste Of pro-
sperity to whom adversity never hap-
pened.
Live as long as you may, the first
twenty years are the longest half of
your life.
People who blow their own horns do
not always furnish good music for
other people.
The religion that is noisy in church
is sometimes very quiet in places where
it is more needed.
A man with only one coat has never
to lie awake and worry for fear that it
will be moth-eaten.
It is only when a man gets where he
has nothing left to be proud of that
the devil leaves him.
It is a step toward heaven to find out
that we are made of the same kind of
clay as other people.
An able man shows his spirit by gam=
tle words and resolute actions. He is
neither hot nor timid.
Praying to the congregation may
sound very nice, but it never attracts
any attention in heaven.
We should all be great men if we
could be measured by the great things
we intend to do to -morrow.
INTrER'TINENT CURIOSITY,

traveliing Wan of the conductm.
4'Of course it is?" was the reply.
"I thought so. Would you mind
ray getting Mit to see what it is fast
THAT MADE A DIFFERENCE.
"You don't seem to have the pati-
ence of Job," said Mrs Bunting to her
husband, who was down on his knees,
looking under the bureau, and making
me of strong language.
replied Bunting, "the style
of shirt that Job wore didn't call for
collar buttons."
CONSUMPTION CURED.
An old physician, retired from praotioe,
baviag had placed in his hands by an East
India mieeionary the formate of a simple
vegetable remedy for the speedy and per-
manent cure of Consumptirih, Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and Lung
Affections, also a positive and, radical our
for Nervous Debility and all Nervono Com-
plaints after having tested its wonderful
curative powerin thousands of easee, has
felt it hie duty to make it known to his suf-
fering fellows. Actuated by this motive
and a desire to relieve human suffering, I
will send free of charge, to all who desire
•it, this reoipe, in German French or Englieli,
with full directions for preparing and using.

THE CHINESE ARE HONEST.
Two years ago the manager of the
Hong Kong and Shanghai. Banking
Corporation (an English house) public-
ly avowed that in the course of a long
experience he had never known, so far
as -Ids bank was concerned, a Chinese
defaulter in money transactions. Not
long ago a foreigner traveled about
China, leaving with native traders
quantities of his goods for sale, inform-
ing them at the same time of the name
of the firm in Shanghai to whom re-
mittances should be sent. Many of
these traders were in out of the way
places; but so far they have regularly
remitted the proceeds of their sales.
One man at Tientsin had credit to the
extent of $1,000. He has since then
retired from business, but he regularly
sends money to the Shanghai agents
in liquidation of his debt.
STRICT DISCIPLINE.
--
Several years ago the Rothchilds
held a large quantity of cotton in New
Orleans, which they instructed their
agent in that city to sell when cotton
should reach a certain price. The
agent, believing that the price of cot-
ton would go beyond the figure named
by his employers, held on till he was
able to sell it at a price which netted
$40,000 more than, he would have got
for it if he had obeyed his orders from
London. He joyfully informed his
employers of his success, supposing
they would share his satisfaction at
the result. Imagine his surprise and
chagrin when he received a reply, say-
ing, in substance:
"Ihe,$40,000 you made by disobey-
ing your instructions is not ours. It is
yours. Take it. Mr--, your succes-
sor will start for New Orleans by the
•next steamer."
This incident illustrates the inflex-
ible discipline enforced by the Roth-
childs.

THE BEST OCCUPATION.
A rich Boston man, so it is said,
wanted to find an occupation for his
son. So he interviewed a number of
his friends, successful men in manu-
facturing, commerce, or the profes-
sions, and asked their judgment as to
his son's learning the particular occu-
pation of each one. Each man advis-
ed to choose any work except the one
in which he himself had been success-
ful, anything but that. Each man
said he had not wanted to learn his
•business, but he had no choice, was
obliged to take it up and keep at it.
If he had his life to live over again, or
had the liberty of choice, he would se-
lect something very different.
That which we have not is always so
much better to us than anything we
possess that we are unhappy. The
tault is not in the thing itselt, but in
the human being who expects any
material object to satisfy him, when
happiness is not in himself. If it is in
himself, then he can be happy no mat-
ter what he does for a living. The best
work for a person is that which he
likes best and can do best. It he can-
not get it at once he can in time work
up to it. Then he ought to contem-
plate the good things in his lot and be
happy.
A COWHIDE HORSESHOE
In England and in the Continent
they have been for a long time using a
horseshoe made of common cowhide.
It is composed of three thickness of
cowhide pressed in still mold and then
subjected to a chemical preparation.
It is claimed for it that it is much
lighter, that it lasts longer, and that
split hoofs are never known in horses
using it. It is perfectly smooth at the
bottom. no calks being required, the
shoe adhering firmly to the most polish-
ed surtace. Its elasticity prevents
many sprains, the horse's steps being
lighter and surer.

THE CLINTON
GAVV TI.41'.4uis*le
•During 183l-82 Igr Bowe resided, in
the BlaCk Bange country; New Igexico,
.aid while there had about as dose a
call from death at the hainln oftbe
Apache Indians as any man who ever
entered the domain 'ef the savage and
theu came forth with scalp intact.
Like all (Om who went to that to-
cality while the mineral excitement
there was going on, Mr Rowe was pro-
specting, aturnaade his headquarters in
the little gully leading up from the
Wild Horse Canyoli.
One bright morning in June of 1882
•he threw a pick over one shoulder and
a gun over the other and left camp in
search of the golden treasure, little
suspecting that behind a cliff of rocks
almost directly in his path lurked
the Victoria -Nana combination of
Apache cut -threats. With the excep-
tion of Geronimo, who is now sojourn-
ing at Fort Marion, Fla., for acts of
dev.iltry committed while on the war-
path, Victoria and Nana were the most
noted Apache chiefs that ever murder-
ed a sheep herder or set a prairie fire,
and to fall into their clutches was sup-
posed to be sure death.
As Rowe sauntered down the gully,
picking float rock as he went, the In-
dians lay low, and befoee he was aware
of their presence he was right among
them. Of mime he was astonished,
yet he neither dropped dead nor at-
tempted to fight. He stoodlike a sta-
tue, and the Indians,with guns leveled,,
moved up and disarmed him without
saying a word. There were about
twenty in the band. Rowe acted so
meekly, and seemed to resign himself
tp his fate in such an indifferent way
that they arrived at the conclusion
that it would be no fun to kill him out-
right ; that they would be better satis-
fied if they tied him to a tree and tor-,
tured him.
With this amiable design Rowe was
tied up with his face towards the ,In -
diens. Forrthe purpose of a chance to
tear his hair, however while the tor-
ture was in progress, his arms were -
not tied. When all was in readineSs
to begin operations a dispute arose
among the savages as to which part of
the body would first be dissected, but
at the expiration of a ten minute de-
bate the deadlock was broken by Chief
Nana remarking in his native tongue,
which Rowe understands quite well,
that one eye should first be gouged
out, then the ears cut off, the nose split
and the teeth knocked out one by one.
Each Indian in turn was to perform
some cruel part, but Chief Nana was to
have the pleasure of gouging out the
first eye. Jerking a long, ugly looking
knife from his belt, he advanced to-
wards the captive, but when within
two feet of him Rowe reached up with
one hand and took out one ofhis eyes,
and tossed it to the chief with the re-
mark : "Don't put yourself to so much
trouble, old man. Fiero is an eye for
you, and when you want the other just
let me know."
The action of Rowe in taking out the
eye was a paralyzer to the whole band,
and the chief, who had received the
token, dropped his knife and made a
critical examination of the optic,others
gathering about him in an eager en-
deavor to get a glimpse of the eye that
could be lifted out in such a manner.
It was passed from one to the other
and commented on, some of the re-
marks being funny in the extreme.
Finally the chief took the eye back to
Rowe and informed him that if he
could put it back again and make it see
he would not molest hins further.
With this proposition Roe gently
lifted the eye in plain sight of all and
replaced it, whereupon he was liberat-
ed and told to go his way, the Indians
believing that he was something more
than a human being,
The eye was glass, and is still carried
by Mr Rowe.
Women suffering from the ailments pe-
culiar to their sex, and pale and sallow
girls may be restored to a fresh blooming
complexion by the use of Dr.William's Pink
Pills. W. J.Witter, Franklin, Man., writes:
"My sister had been ill for seven or eight
years, and looked as though she were going
to the grave. Your Dr. William's Pink
Pills completely restored her. Sold by all
druggists. Beware of imitation.
The Prince and Princess of Wales
have publicly expressed their thanks
for the expressions of sympathy receiv-
hd regarding the death of the Duke of
Clarence.
MANY A LIFE
HAS been saved by the prompt use of
Ayer's Pills. Travelqrs by land or
sea are liable to constipation or other
derangements of the stomach and bowels
which, if neglected, lead to serious and
often fatal consequences. The most sure
means of correcting these evils is the use
of Ayer's Cathartic Pills. The pru-
dent sailing -master would as soon go to
sea without his chronometer as without
a supply of these Pills. Though prompt "
and energetic in operation, Ayer's Pills
leave no ill effects; they are purely
vegetable and sugar-coated; the safest
medicine for old and young, at home or
abroad.
"For eight years I was afflicted with
constipation, which at last became so
bad that the doctors could do no more
for me. Then I began to take Ayer's
Pills, and soon the bowels recovered
their natural and regular action, so that
novs I am in
• Excellent
health."—Mrs. C. E. Clark, Tewksbury,
Massachusetts.
"1 regard Ayer's Pills as one of the
most reliable general remedies of our
times. They have been in use In my
family for affections requiring a purga-
tive, and have given unlyfarying satisfac-
tion. We have found tl m an excellent
remedy for colds and ight fevers."—
W. R. Woodson, Fort Worth, Texas.
"For several years I have relied more
upon Ayer's Pills than upon anything
else in the medicine chest, to regulate
my bowels and those of the ship's crew.
These Pills are not severe in their ac-
tion, but do their work thoroughly. I
have used them with good effect for
the cure of rheumatistn, kidney trou-
bles, and dyspepsia." — Capt. Mueller,
Steamship Felicia, New York City.
"1 have found Ayer's Cathartic Pills
to be a better family medicine for com-
mon use than any other pills within my
knowledge. They aro not only very
effective, but safe and pleasant to take
—qualities wbich must make them
valued by the public." —,- Jules Hauel,
Perfumer, Philadelphia, Pa.
