"It was ia 1882, ou the 27th of June; you will see why I have no trouble in rernemb6ring the date. '1t had been an exceedingly hot day, not a cloud to be seen, with the sun beating fiercely down, and not a breath of air stirring. We sat out on the parch after supper, trying to find. a cool place The clouds were beginning to gather, and it looked as if there might be a shower The three little ones went early to bed, and in spite of the oppressive heat were soon fast 8.81eep. "It couldn't have been far from eight o'cloek when I heard a sound which at first thought was thunder. The others noticed it, too, and, as it grew louder, a terrible rushing sound came with it, and we looked at one another in silence fur a minute, and then ran -to where we could look out westward. "My heart almost stopped beating, when I saw coming toward us with a terrific speed a black, funnel -shaped cloud, the rush and roar accompanying it growing louder every minute. "Run tor ;the cellar I' I cried. My wife ran and seized the baby, and I caught up the other two children from the bed. There was no time to lose. "The one who firet reached the cellar door—it was one of the older children— had just time to seize the knob, nothing more, when — crash! such a terrific noise! I felt myself 'lifted in the air, and thought my time had come. The next thing I knew, I felt the splash of cold water in my face, I must have Jost consciousness, but the water revived me, and iu a moment I knew where I was. I had come down head first intd the well. "The water was some ten feet deep. I was thoroughly at home in the water, though I wasn't used to diving in that fas lion, and I managed -to right myself atie_ come up head first. "The well was not more than three - feet across, and the pump had been broken short off and carried away, leaving a two-inch pipe standing up in the middle. " I was very nearly out of breath when I came to the top of the water. My hands touched something floating on the surface. I thought it was the cat ; imagine my surprise, when I found It was Charlie, our five-year-old boy! • "He was terribly frightened, and as amazed as I was, to find himself not alone in the well. The wonder was that we were not both of us impaled on that iron pipe; how we escaped it I cannot understand. "The cyclone had passed.on, and &- terrific, steady wind was _blowing. I could hear it roar above our heads; and by the flashes of lightning I could see that rain fell in torrents. We were both so wet we didn't mind the little ex- tra water that splashed down on us, and as soon as possible I raised Charlie to my shoulders, and by the aid of the pipe managed to work my way up to the top of the well. This took some little time, and the wind and rain had nearly ceased when I set my feet an olid earth again, and found we were unhurt."—From "Fifteen Minutes with a Cyclone" by Louise Ford, in St. Nich- olas for March. Death of a Remarkable Woman. On the 17th ult., Wei+ Hannah Millar, fortnerly of the brig °little, died in Saltcoats, Ayrshire, at the age of 82 years. The history of herself and of her family is remarkable. Her father, the late Mr. Wm. Millar, was a merch- ant ita Saltcoats in the days when it, possessed a harbour with a flourishing shipping trade, and when shipbuEding was also carried on. In advanced years Mr. Millar was unfortunate in his affairs, which at his death were embar- rassed: The principal asset of his busi- ness was the brig Clitus.., which had been built out of material belonging to a man- of-war of the same name, which was wrecked on the cast coast over 100 years ago. Mr. Millar's., eldest (laugh- ter, Mies Betsy Millar, at this crisis in the affairs of her family, with a resolu- tion which might truly be called heroic; took command of the brig and became sailing master." So successful was her career awe " ehipmast4 " that she Waa enabled to pay off a debt of £700 which her father's estate owed to credi- tors, maintain .herself in Comfort, and bring up two sisters left deisendent upon her. The Clitus. traded !between Ar. &moven and Irish ports, tend for more than thirty years Miss Millar transacted all the business connected with freight, cargo and ship's stores, !engaged her ere*, and directed the ship's course through all weathers. She received hnnorable mention by -the late Earl of Eglinton in the House of Lords, when the Merchant Shipping Ad of 1834 was under discussion, and about the same time she was also mentioned praise. worthily in the House of COmmons. At ,Nliss Betsy Millar's death in 1864 Miss Hannah Millar assumed charge of the vessel, and continued successfully to command her for many years. . • A Boon to the Afflicted. EDITOR.?; It is a well known fact that the majority of people are inclined to look upon a cold in the head as a matter of little importance -involving at the most only a temporary inconven- ience. No more disastrous mistake was ever made. The neglected cold in the end is the source of catarrhal affections with which about seven -tenths of the people of this country are afflicted, and catarrh itself is too often the pre- liminary stages of consumption and death. The symptoms of catarrh are manifold, but among them may be mentioned, offensive breath, dull and oppressive headache ; offensive droppings from thenostrils intothe throat and bronchial tubes ; deafness or partial deafness; constant hawking and spit- ting ; weak and watery eyes; a hack- ing cough and feeling of general de- bility '• ringing in the ears and fre- quent dizziness. These are but a few of the more general symptoms,and these who experience them should lose no time in applying a rernedy-delays are proverbially dangerous, and in the case of this too prevalent disease may lead to death. We offer Nasal Balm to the public as a Posrrivis CTiRE for cold in the heed' end for catarrh in all its forma and stagas.

We were waiting on the depot, plat- form in a new town in Alabama, and as the dozen of us walked up and down, some one espied a wasps' nest, hanging on a bush across the track. He pointed it out as a wasps' nest, but a short, solid man, who had a head like a cannon -ball and a jaw denoting great firmness of character, at (Cnce replied : "I beg your pardon, air, but you have made the very common mistake of claseing the wasps with the horneta. That is a hornets' nest." "And I beg your pardon, sir," pro- tested the other, who was a planter, "but hornets don't nest that way. They build mud houses under the eaves of• old buildings, and one won't sting you unless you pick him up. My niggers de- clare that no wasp can sting if he wants to, while on the contrary a hornet---" "1 beg to diffee.with you, sir," inter- rupted the solid man. "That is a wasps' nest. You are right about the wasp being a Peaceful insect, and I think I will take that nest along for a 'souvenir. Theysay they are a sure cure ' for quinsy." "Do you know a hornet from a wasp ?" "1 should remark V' "Well, when you get through -with that nest I want you to tell me whether it was occupied by hornets or wasps. Gentlemen, look out for yourselves." He started for the woods and we fol- lewed, and when we reached a safe dis- tance and looked back, the man with the iron jaw was just cutting off the limb which held the nest., Fie held it up and called to us to come 4nd see it, but his call was followed byi a yell which would have done credit to. a Comanche warrior with a double Adam's apple in his throat. The big, yell wis followed by o, series of hoots, Whoops, exclamations and ejaculations, and these were accent - panted by gymnastics of an intricate character. He jumped, dodged, twist- ed and cavorted, and finally started down the track on a gallop. Seventy • minutes later, and just as the train whistled, he came out of the woods, dead lame, one eye shut, his nose as °big as his fist, and head bare. "Hornets or wasps?" queried the planter. "Hornets, by thunder !" groaned the victim as he hurried to get his valise. Some Mistakes. It is a sad mistake for a man late in life to change his business vocation. For instance, Mr. A has lived on a farm the best of his days. He owns a farm; has comfortable buildings, plenty of fruit and valuable stock. All these are very nice and no one ie more fully aware of it than himself, but there is so much hard work connected with the farm, and he is getting old and cannot do as he once did,. while competent help is not easily obtained. His wife is in the same situation as himself. She is get- ting along in years, is feeble in health and longs for rest. The sons and daughters are either away for them• selves or,else they are dissatisfied with farm life and are aspiring to what they think is something higher and better in the town or city. So taking it all in all, the farm is sold, or traded for city property, and the family move to Some village or; some urban residence. All goes well for a while, but wearying of inactivity, Mr. A, engages in some mer- cantile pursuit with which he is wholly unacquained, and in which he invests a portion of all of his property. The result is perhaps the loss of all that he has. The following instances came under the writer's personal observation, and occurred within a few miles of one of our lake cities. A man aged sixty own- ed a farm of over one hundred acres. It was the accumulation of years of toil and economy on the part of himself and wife. The time referred to was in the seventies, when property was "boom ing." Through the influence of his son this man was induced to trade his farm for city property. The farm was valu- ed at $10,000 and in the trade there was but little if any cash exchange. A •few years elapsed and the man and his wife had pined and died in their city home. The son soon after effeeted another held° for land in Michigan valued at $1,600, which was all that was left of the original $10,000 farm. Another instance was where a man well along in years Was considered a rich farmer. He was a man of education and taste. The wife had always been accustomed to having things to her mind. There was fine linen and silver for her table, and luxuries in every de- partment of the borne. They had taken pains to educate their -children and their sons were engaged in honorable and lucrative employments. But one of them had become possessed cf a desire to speculate in wheat, He had personal knowledge of men who had become im- mensely rich by such speculation. He was so certain of success the he prevail- ed his father to let him "risk " the farm. He did so and all was lost. - . Stall another case. A man owned a beautiful farm " of one hundred and thirty acres. It was his by inheritance. He had sons. He could see no money in farming. " It didn't pay ?" He preached that doctrine until he inspired his sons with like sentiments. The farm was sold. Two or three business ven- tures were engaged in, all resulted in loss. In after years one son was glad- to purchase a few acres adjoining the old farm, where he Jettled and was happy. These instances are given to illustrate a moral, "Don't give up the farm." Of course one is justified in retiring to an easier life when he .is able to do so. But don't sell the farm. Hold on to it, so that when all else fails you have a home. -J. E. S., in Ohio Farmer.

The late Benjainin F. Wade, of Ohio, Was, at the beginning of his career at the bar, noted for bashfulness; but an- other trait, hie determination, enabled him to get through his work in a way which, though not conventional, landed him at his destination. Once, while a youth, says the Youth's Companion, he started with a bag of corn on his shoulders to a mill twenty miles away. It was in November, and coming to a full -banked river, he dis- covered that the canoe was on the other side. Throwing off his clothes, he plunged in, gained the canoe, took it back where the bag of coin was, which he ferried across, and then went on his way. . Another illustration of his way of do- ing things occurred whiole he was a jus- tice of the peace. One day a young couple called at his office to be married. The presence of four or five irreverent young men prompted the bashful jus- tice to suggest privately to the pair that they had better meet him at the little hotel. They weut, and so did the jus- tice, by a roundabout way, only to dis- cover that the boys were also there. Seeing that he must perform the cere- mony in their presence, he, though he had forgotten the usual formula, pro- ceeded to business in the most direct way. "You wish to be married ?" he asked the pair. " Yes." "Stand up and take hands. You,' addressing the not prepossessing groom, "wish to marry this young woman ?" " Yes." ' "Of course you do !" exclaimed the justice, glancing at the pretty _bride, and asking her: "Do you take this young man for your husband ?" "Well, you are getting the worst of it, but I say you are husband and wife. There, boys, you see I did it !" he eon - eluded, glancing. at the spectators. The couple had to have it explained to them that they were, in the eyes of the law, wedded, Whereupon the hus- band Offered the justice AL' fee - the statute made it one dollar and a half - which, by et`‘, lofty motion of his hand, he waved off, saying: "Nothing for & job like that."

Promptness in meeting money obliga- tions is a quality that soon gives a man or a firm a marked and enviable position' in trade circles, to say nothing of the many advantages it gains. Punctuality is in part at least, a habit capable of cultivation, but to oompel circumstances to always wait upon obligation requires brain of good fibre. Fdiresight, wisdom, caution, and energy must' be continu- ally exercised that one may be invari- ably at a given point at a specified time, and the man who does it secures the re- spect and confidence of buyers and sell- ers, associates, employees and friends, besides gaining for° himself a comfort- able conscience. Leese methods and procrastination i the 'matter of pay- ment too often re ct with severity upon inocent parties. 1The relation of man to man is necessarill close and depenient, and individual conduct often sets in motion a train Of circumstances, which, passing individual control, may cause inconvenience, anxiety and sometimes loss of character, to persons. whose in- tentions areoupright, but who are the victims of procrastination, either inten- tional or carelessness in others. But perhaps it is in the matter of dis- counts that the tradesman reaps the most substantial benefits arising.' from prompt payments, and by prudence and sagacity he is often able to increase his profits one -hell from this source alone. Jobbers always favor a prompt pay- master, not only by giving him better terms, but by keeping him in mind when ad van tages arise. Bills taken up '‘ promptly not only save money, but worry also, and leave the mind clear and the purse ready to "catch on" to passing opportunities. It is also not, only a legitimate and proper way of making and 'saving money, but one which the trade likes to see practieed, as it enables all hands to see just where they stand every time.-Geyer's Sta- tioner. -Mr. Charles Lockhart, of Pitts- burgh,Pennsylvania, has just bought for': £10,500 the beautiful little residenti4 estate of Dildawn, near Castle-Douglai, Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland, Mr. Lockhart is a native of the Stewartry.

Until the poison expelled from the system, there can be no cure for this loatheonsn and. dangerous malady. 'Therefore, the only effective treatment is a thorough course of Ayer's Sarsaparilla -the best Of all blood purifiers. The sooner you begin the better; delay is dangerous. ,"1 was troubled with catarrh for over two years. 1 tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi- cians, but received no benefit until I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of this medicine cured me of this troublesome complaint and com- pletely restored my health."—Jesse M. Boggs, Itolman's Milis, N. C. "When Ayer's Sarsaparilla was rec- ommended to me for catarrh, I was in- clined to doubt its efficacy. Having tried so many remedies, with little ben- efit, I had no faith that anything would cure me. I became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion, bad nearly lost the sense of smell, and my system was badly deranged. 1 was about discouraged, *hen a friend urged nse to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and re- ferred me to persons whom it had axed of catarrh. After taking half a, dozen bottles of this medicine, I am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disea5e is through the blood." -Charles H.
