The home slaves of our country -the thousands of wives and mothers who toil from early morn till late at night —deserve comfort, cheering and en- couragement. The daily toil, worry and bustle in the management of home and children is so severe on the vast majorty of mothers, that they become premature- ly aged and broken down in body. Thousands are nervous. sleepless, dys- peptic, despondent and melancholic. Unless some effort, some means of rescue, be devised for saving these devotees and slaves of home life, the dark grave will greedily engulf many wearied and worn-out mothers, leav- ing mourning husbands and helpless little ones behind. 'Tisa fearful pic- ture, but nevertheless true as heaven's sun shines on earth. It is well to know the truth. It is our duty to ut- ter warnings in tones that cannot be misunderstood. Our weary, nervous, faint, weak and broken-down wives and mothers must follow the example of a multitude of their sisters who have renewed and changed their lives, by the use of Paine's Celery Compound, nature's true and in- fallible invigorator and strengthener.

Pot PR•PROPRLtED MICYCLE, 16ther le Used as a Substitute for Stearn. An ether bicycle is else result of the inventive genius and labors of a Port- land, Me., young man named Willard I. Twombly. Ile uses ether to generate power instead of water. Why? Because ether is converted into expanding gas at 90 degrees, while water requires 212 de- grees of heat to change it into steam. There is a great saving of heat,. says The Cyclist. Also, the gas of ether is a third more powerful than the steam of water. That is, a pound of ether con- verted into gas would occupy a third more space titan a pound of water con- verted into steam. The cylinder that runs downward per- pendicularly from under the seat is the generator. It corresponds to a steam boiler. It is a coil of pipe surrounded by asbestos, and inclosed in an air -tight cylinder. It is but thee inches in dime - THE ETHER BICYCLE. ter and 32 inches in length. and con- tains fottr pounds of ether. . This is heated bS.bmning gasoline from under- neath, which is supplied from a tank that is in the curving frame extending• from the bottem of the generator to the fork of the front wheel. A force pump extends from the hub of the rear wheel to the bottom of the generator and forces a spray of burning gasoline under the ether. It is operated as the rear wheel is driven by the two engines that extend from just behind the saddle down to the hub of the rear wheel on both sides. These engines weigh two pounds apiece, without the pistons, yet at full pressure they are capable of two - horse power each and at low pressure of one-horse flower each. The generator represents in power a four -horse power steam boiler. After the vaporized ether has driven the engine the vapor passes through the frame under the seat to the condenser, just above the front wheel. under the handles. The condenser is a coil of pipe eight Inches in length. On the other side of the rear wheel, opposite the force pump, is an air pump. Along the sides of the reservoir of gasoline, in the curv- ing lower frame, which is quite wide, are two pipes, The one on the side of the air pump tsto convey a current of air up to the condenser, where an atomizer ar- rangement forces gasol inc from the tank onto the condenser. This cools with re- markable quickness. The vapor of the ether comes from the eng•ines„is condens • ed and runs down the pipe on the other side of the gasoline tank and into the generator again. Thus the ether is used over and over again. The gasoline tank holds enough for 100 miles of travel,and it is estimated that the speed would reach as high as 60 miles an hour. The entire bicycle will weigh about 60 pounds,withpneumatic tires three inches in diameter. THE OVERFLON OF CISTERNS. Row to Avoid the Trouble During lho livery 1Lalas, Farmers often have trouble during the heavy rains in keeping their cis- terns from overflowing. A dampness near the house causes, a damp, wet cel- lar, which should be strenuously avoid- ed. The accompany illustration, from a sketch by J. W. Ceughey, presents a plan for avoiding such overflowingcis- terns. A forked pipe is fasteneinto the rain gutter receiver from the roof. ?At the junction ofthe two arms or switch pipes there is a shut-off which is operated by a wire rod, which as it ap- pears in the illustration turns the ob- struction plate within the pipe and stops its entrance into the cistern when the latter is considered full enough. The other pipe carries the water away into a drain or ditch that is properly made and covered. This keeps every- thing dry about the; house, and the annoyance soloften seen on the farm in wei weather is avoided. The cistern is Located back of the kitchen, under the platform and step of the porch, being: at hand when water is wanted, adding much in the convenience to the house- wife ousewife and saving the labor of carrying it from a barrel or other receptacle near the house, set out to catch the water. This arrangement can be made at any tin store. It is best made of galvanized iron, which will not rust or wear out as easily as tin, and will last for years.' Convenient Nesting Arrangement, The cut slows a plan for nest ar. rangement that possesses a number of advantages. A row of nests are made along a wall of the poultry house to which access can be had upon the other side. The tops of the nest slopes to keep the hens off, and projects over the tront to keep- the nests as dark inside as pos- sible. A narrow alighting board is placed bolow the entrance while a door lets down in the rear,byy which the eggs can be gathered from tho outside room, If the fowls can be fed and watered through the partition below this hinged door,thore will be very littls need of en- tering the poultry house at all, since the small'door that lets the fowls into their garde can be opened and closed from the outside ropm by a cord and a pulley. Keeping the nests as dark as possible will prevent the hone from breaking and eating their eggs. Fiat Mews THE NEZ PERU HORSE. TWO STORIES THAT ILLUSTRATE HIS INDOMITABLE COURAGE, now Ilse Detected Robbers and How $e Reeled Them Tho" H Died --A Ilrave Soy, A Roble Rorie and Ills 6,000 Ifol. lowers. The hardy little Nez Pero* horse, soma times pied or "tralioo" in color, sometimes blue and sometpmes black as goal, and al- ways beautiful, is quite well known inway; but a know what remarkableecou agw e a dfasap ty he, has. In 1862 and 1868 I was engaged in par- rying gold -duet out of the Idaho moun- tains. One day when descending a steep trail on a densely -wooded mountain Bide, I found the trail blocked by a tree that seem- ed to have been suddenly blown down by the wind and a newly -opened trail leading off to the left. My Nez Perce pony stop- ped, threw back his ears and almost sat down on his haunches as I mercilessly drove my spurs into his flauke. We were often cruel in these hard, swift rides, for time was precious and peril waited on every moment spent between stations. We always dashed on at a hard gallop, the load of gold -dust in the "catenae" hanging down on either side of the saddle -bow, the reins in the right hand and a cocked pistol M the left. I spurred until the great Spanish spurs were streaming with blood from the pouy'a flanks, but still he would not budge an inch in the newly -cleared trail. At last gathering up all his strength he poiaed in the air and then plunged headlong on down the hill over the fallen tree. , In the leap my pistol was shaken from my bend, and while I was drawing another from my "catenae" there came a raid of Iead from a company of robbers lying in ambush. But the poor pony kept me iu my seat, faced about for a second,as if to Delvemea chance to defend m;eeir, and len pluuged on down the mountain two miles to the ferry. There, on the edge of the river, he fell dead from a bullet -wound that must have meant death from the first, for his nostrils were streaming with blood all the way down the mountain. When the Indian war swept the Nez Perce country the Indiana gathered about 5,000 horses into a valley that fronted on the steep bluffs of the Columbia Ricer; and there, with the great white mountains at their back, prepared to make their last desperate stand. In the battle that fol- lowed they were defeated and the small fraction of them that remained unkilled put to flight. The horses, shut in by the steep mountains on one side and the steep river bluffs on the other, had to be left be. hind. When the battle had closed the soldiers or the volunteers (for only a part were re- gulars) made a rush for .the horses. Bat they could not lay hands on one of them or approach them. Their splendid heads, with great manes, tossed and tumbled, were in the air, and they went round and round in a circle iii the pretty, pent -in little valley, and along the edge of the sheer bluff of the river. And now for the first time it was noticed that they were under a boy herder. • The boy was unarmed, entirely naked and as red as copper. He rode a black stallion with a neck like a bulla and literally man- tled and clothed with mane. The boy had no bridle, but wove his hands into the matte, and thus guided the horse at will, at the head of the herd. Sometimes he laid. his face down on the proud neck and buried it in the masa of hair, which match- ed his own in its glossy blackness. Hun- dreds of then tried to stop or stay the herd in its wild. flight, but tried in vain. The green grass disappeared beneath the strokes of spurning feet and dust began to rise in clouds. The volunteers dropped on their knees here and there around the edge of the circle and began to fire at the boy. They were deadly marksmen and they had no care to spare either horse or rider. But the boy did not seem to want to be spared any more than did the horse. At last a bullinet struck him iu the face. His body flew high into the air, then fell and rolled the duet. The horses now divided as they came by. Their nostrils were distended at the smell of blood and their eyes ablaze at the sight of their young keeper in the dust. It seethed as if they truly knew and under- stood all the fearful tragedy of ,that day and hour. On the second round after the boy fell the black leader seemed to run sidewise, his eyes fastened to his Jane dead master until they looked frightful from under the black mane. He plunged on around and came to the very edge of the beetling basalt bluff. Then there was the sight as of a sculptured image of a horse poised in mid-air; and a mad, wild cry such es a horse makes but once, a cry in- describable, that filled the valley. Men looked away, and when they looked back the •black statue was gone. Then, faithful to the leader, over the bluff into the foam. ing white river went another horse. And then 10, 20, 50, 500, the whole 6,0001 Not one of all the herd was left to the invad- ing victors; and the stream was literally olioked with the dead.—Joaquin Miller. NEW RULES OF THE ROAD. What Pod estrlans 11lay Expect if the Cye . ling Craze Continues. We are informed that a general meeting of all the French cycling clubs is to be held shortly for the purpose of drawing tip a code of xules for foot passengere, which is afterward to be submitted for approval to the public authorities. We have been permitted to examine the first draft of this remarkable scheme, which is worded as follows: "Whereas, The number of cyclists is on the increase, and as a natural consequence the number of pedestrians is constantly diminishing; "Whereas, The cyclists will shortly be in the majority; and "Whereas, That minority ought to sub- mit, it is hereby enacted that: "Article 1.-11very pedestrian is to be supplied with a bell and a signal horn, whioh he shall sound on crossing a street whenever be spies a cycle on the horizon. "Article 2,—At night the foot tpasseu- gger shall carry on his breast a lantern con. fail;ing a lighted taper. "Article 8.—Any foot passenger who, by bis awkwarkness and want of attention, shall occasion the fall of a cyclist by stu- pidly allowing himself to be run over, shall be liable to a fine of 50 to 100 francs; after a repetition of the offenee he shall be transported to a mountainous region. " rheic 4. --France shall be entirely leveled in order to save eyelids the annoy - abbe of hill climbing.

A Reassured Parson—No Longer Did the Timid Clergyman Fear While the daft. ors Swore—lulling Out a Kansas Gale— The Rights of a Railroad Passenger. Jackson Peters homed back in hie chair, says Harper's Weekly, and slowly blew 'a cloud of smoke toward the ceiling. "Jones," be said, "I want to ask your opinion in re- gard to the probability of a story which was told me the other day." "Well, Jackson?" was the guarded reply of the cautious Jones. "It etruok me," continued Peter "that a man who had told as many—that is to say, a man who has told as much of what I may call awe-inspiring truth as you have ought to be a good judge of the probability of a story. It was a cyclone story which I was going to ask you about." "Moat cyclone stories are palpable lies, Jackson." "No, doubt. The point is this: He said he had seen straws driven through inch boards by the force of the wind." "It never happened, Jackson. That is a stook lie told of every cyclone that blows. Yos}r friend imposed upon your youth, my boy. He would never have dared to tell such a manifest and self.heralded lie to Robinson or Smith. I must admit, though, that the force of the wind in a genuine Dyclone is considerable. When I lived in Kansas in elle '70e I had a quail• tity of poultry, but it was blown away In the first cyclone of the season exeopt a black Spanish rooster. He clung to a grass root with bis bill, and allowed hie tail to crack and whip i0 the wind like A yacht penant. He rode out the gale, though most of his feathers were blow off. Subsequently I found some of tfjetie imbedded over half an inch in my grind. stone." "Yes," returned Peters, "I presume my friend was trying to impose on my adoles- cence." "I think so, Jackson. I had considerable experience with cyclones that summer in Kansas. But I learned to handle myself so that I did not mind theme much. I soon saw the fallacy of depending on oyeiono cellars and that sort of thing: The funda- mental difficulty of all such things is that you try to hold yourself firmly in one plane. It is as if a ship in a gale should tie up to a post (supposing midocean posts for the time being); instead of driving before the tempest. The first cyclone that summer, of course, I went down cellar, like other folks. My horse was soon blown away. The next thing I knew the cellar went, too, rolling over and over like a silk hat. I was soon spilled out. With infiuite labor I crawled back in the teeth of the wind, in- tending to take refuge in the hole the oei- lar came out of. To my consternation, I found that bad blown away, also. I then followed the example of the rooster, clung to a root, and allowed my legs to flutter and snap in the gale like a weather signal e g. Reassured by Rad Language. A good story is told by the Illustrated London News of a timid clergyman just arrived from a trip abroad. Corning home on the Berlin, of the American Line, the weather was alarmingly tempestuous. The wind blew a hurricane, the vessel naturally rolled and the parson took fright. Ho left hie stateroom and staggered along to the office of John Kavanagh, the purser, who is a bit of a wag, and said: "I'm sure, Mr. Purser, you'll pardon me, but I feel so dreadfully agitated. Kindly inform me, are we in any positive dan- ger?" Kavanagh replied: "Come with me a moment," and he led the way to the fore- castle, •'Now," continued he, "t;end your ear down there and tell me what you hear?" The sailors were swearing in their happy - gee -lucky, unconscious way. "How shocking! What language!" groaned the parson, trembling from head to foot. "Now do you for a moment think that those sailors would go on in that profane fashion if there was real danger?" asked the consoling Kavanagh. "True, true," replied the parson, some- what calmed by the assurance. "One may sometimes pluck he sweet flower of comfort from the vile cloaca of sin. The ways of Providenc= are indeed inscrut. able," and back he o awled to his room, in a degree reassu ed, Two ho in v ater he storm had increased ce, the wind raged and howled ore wildly, and huge waves broke over and seemed to submerge thegreat ship.
