ITE WON A NEW CHAIR
A CASE WHERE NE.RVE_ AND PER-
SISTENCY GOT THEIR REWARD.
The Station .anter Called the Divi-
sion - Superintendent's Bluff and
.Went Out Through the Door In•
sterid of Through the Window.
Several division officials were inform-
ally congregated in the superintendent's
otlice of an eastern railroad one after-
noon when tho conversation turned to
the subject --of elaborate. office furniture,
suggested by a new office chair which
had been presented to the venerable su-
perintendent by his subordinates as a
birthday remembrance.
"I never see an office chair like that
without -being reminded o1 an amusing
incident which eccurred to me at almost
the commencement of my railroad expe-
rience," -remarked the traveling freight
agent.
"I , commenced my railroad career as
°spare agent' for the Central Vermont
back fa the sixties .when 'Old Man' Hal-
ioway was ,superintendent of the north-
ern division of that road. I only worked
about six or eight months in that capaci-
ty when I was assigned to a new station
just opened near St. Albans, Vt., the
headquarters of the division. I shall'
never forget the pride and satisfaction
which I experienced in the possession of
that, my first regular position. Were I
to be elected to the presidency of this
road tomorrow I . doubt if it would afford
ane anywhere near the self satisfaction
that I derived from my first agency up
there in the Green Mountain State. Like
everything else in life, though, there was
a drawback to my complete happiness,
End that drawback lay in the fact_ that,
while all the rest of my station equip-
ment and office furniture was entirely
new, the chair which they seat me, judg-
ing. from its appearance, had: seen sev-
eral years' service at some other station
before being sent to me.
"Well, that chair didn't harmonize with
my ideas any more than it did with the
rest of the office furniture. I immediate-
ly sat down and wrote the superintendent
at some length, stating the case in all
its details, which, when summarized,
aameunted to. the fact that an old chair
bed been sent me iu error in place of a
new one, and I asked him. to see that the
mistake, be rectified. I sent the letter on
the morning train, thinking,- of course, -
that the new chair would be forthcoming
on the last train from St. Albans that
night; but, although I watched every in-
coming train from St. Albans with anx-
ious, expectant eyes for over a week, the
coveted chair did not make its appear-
ance.
"Thinking the letter must have been
Jo.t or mislaid, I wrote another, stating
the case at more length than oa the for-
mer occasion. On the following day I re-,
ceived my second letter back with an in-
dorsement across the corner that a new
chair could not be provided just -at that
time and for the present I would have to
get along with the one I had as best I
could.. This somewhat dampened my ar-
dor, ,but did not entirely discourage me in
my efforts to secure the new. chair. I
importuned the train dispatcher at least
three times a week and made it a point
to communicate my want to the train -
master, the roaduiaster and every one
else whom I caw and who I thought
would hare any influence whatever with
the, to me, obstinate superintendent, but
all to no avail. Something like two
mouths passed, and 1 was still seated in
my Oil, ready to fall to pieces chair.
"Ding in St. Albans one day, I decided
to call upon Mr. IIalioway its person and
ascertain, if possible, what the prospects .
were relative to my chair.
"After considerable trouble—it being
one of his busy days—I succeeded in
gaining admittance to his private office.
1 have often wondered since that he did
not fire me out bodily and give me a ten
days' suspension to boot for my-presump-
tion,but he did not, preferring, evidently,
to bluff me' out of the affair and -at the
same time have a little fun all to himself
at my expense.
"I stated ray case in as few words as
possible, being somewhat awe inspired -
by his scrutinizing gaze. When. I had
finished, he simply grunted an assent
and, turning around to his desk, proceed-
ed to finish the letter before him, .appar-
ently utterly oblivious to my further pres-
once. After he had finished the letter
and addressed it he slowly arose froin
his chair, took off his glasses and laid
them on the desk in front of hits and
straightened himself up to his full height
--something like 6 feet 2—ln a way that
led me to think that my finish had ar-
rived and that I was booked- to go out
through the -window. Ite did not fire
inc. however, but. what he did do was
equally radical in its nature. ` Taking
the large. comfortable office chair in
which he had been sitting by the back
with both hands and placing his right
toot underneath it, he partly threw and
partly kicked it over in front of where I
sat, remarking in his most severe man-
ner, 'There, will that do you?'
"For the tenth part of a second I was
completely nonplused; but,
not

to be bluffed, I caught up the clinic,
swung it over my >honider and, with a
`Thank you, Mr. Ilalloway; this will do
very nicely,' I started to depart as I had
come, through the outer office, where his
small corps of clerks were at work. See-
ing. my intention and evidently not want -
bag me to go in that way, he directed my
attention to a side door leading directly
to the street, and, opening the door, he
bowed inc out of his presence with as
much grace as if I had been the president
of the road. I afterward learned that it
Was several weeks before he got another
chair to replace the one I had taken. In
reply to the master mechanic's query
--shortly after as to how he canto to give
his chair; to Clarke he replied, with a
smile, 'Well, to tell you the truth, 1 had
no more idea that he would take that
-chair than I now have that you will
shoulder this office and carry it away.'
"Whether the episode gave me any
prestige with the 'old man' -.or not I ant
unable to'say, but I was promoted to one
of the best stations on the • bine.

ONE FRIEND OF THE SPARROWS.
He Cite, Many Good Deeds Done by
the Chatterbox.
I` see in magazines and papers so many
articles denouncing the sparrow that I
feel it niy duty to tell of my 35 years of
close companionship with this little chap.
While I read the accounts of his alleged
Murders and depredations on other birds,
I have yet to see any such disgraceful
acts on his part, writes A. L. Fraser.
My experience with him has preyed to
me that he is the farmer's best friend.
He is the first little fellow in thespring
to pounce on and destroy all the cater-
pillars and insects that are destructive to
the farmer's crops, and he keeps pegging
i away at these vermin until the grain is
ripe. Then the crops are so far advanc-
ed that they are .ate. All he then asks
in return for the benefit he has been to
the farmer is a little grain to carry him
through the fall and winter:
So few know the reason for the intro-
duction of the English sparrow to this
pant of the world that I wish to give it.
Many Tears ago the streets of New York
were lined with beautiful trees. In the
spring, as soon as the began to put on
their summer foliage, they were attack-
ed by an ugly looking green worm called
the inchworm. These would devour all
the leaves, leaving the tree perfectly
bare, and then hang from the trees in
millions by a silken thread. They be-
came such an intolerable nuisance that a
great many people had the trees cut
down to get rid of them. After the in-
troduction of the sparrow this nuisance
ceased to exist. He did his work brave-
ly and well. This certainly is a proof of
the benefit he isto the farmer. ,You can de-
pend on it that he destroys more harm-
iful insect life in proportion than he takes
`back in pay for what grain he eats.
While now and then there may be cases
of disgraceful acts on his part to others
of our most beautiful feathered crea-
tures, he has always behaved himself in
my presence.
At this whiting he is living - in peace
with the catbird, robin, brown thrush,
oriole and many other birds in and
around any premises. The little chap
cheers us with his presence and cheery
note all winter. Thousands of them are
killed off by deep snow, cold and want of
food. Not only is he a benefit to us in the
way above mentioned, but he is a shield,
a protector to all the other birds, in that
be gives up his life to tramp cats, hawks
and the boy with the rifle. If he were
not with us, surely all the other birds
would have to suffer.
I saw an article in one of our maga-
zines advising the wholesale destruction
of the sparrow with grain soaked in poi-
soned water. What a terrible combina-
tion that is to get in the hands of some
idiot, who would use it and destroy num-
berless other feathered songsters. Last
winter one of my neighbors soaked corn
in poisoned water and scattered it for the
destruction of crows. . He killed a bevy
of quail. I saw the dead birds. Besides,
many other birds have auffered_with the
quail.
Before condemning this little chatter-
box make your home with him summer
and winter, and the more you see of him
the more you will see his value to the
farmer, and you will find on the long,
cold and dreary- days in the country in
winter, when all the other warblers are
in, the sunny south, these little innocents
will brighten your pathway with their
cheerful notes.-

Rattlesnakes.
From 'the effective character of -their
weapons of offense and defense, rattle-
snakes have a great advantage in the
struggle for existence against all animals
except man and his domestic companion,
the pig. - Hence in , unsettled localities in
North America they are abundant, es-
pecially in the warm regions of the south
and west. In many places they are the
tnost abundant species of snake, as, for
Instance, -on the plains, where no :pedes
is as often seen as the Crotalus conflu-
entus. That they have been much more
abundant in many wild parts of the east
than at present is indicated by the great
quantities of their bones which are found
in the caves of the limestone regions of
the Mississippi valley. The pig, as is
well known, will destroy and eat rattle-
snakes with impunity. It is said that the
poison is not sufficiently introduced into
:the circulation to cause death, owing to
the thick adipose layer with which the
domesticated• pig is covered.
A Little Incongruous.
An English paper says that soon after
Lord Galloway entered the British house
of lords he presumed so far upon his re-
lationship to the__Marquis of Salisbury as
to write to Disraeli to ask for the office
of master of the buekhounds, and he was
favored with a reply which read some-
what as follows:
"I am sorry that I cannot` recommend
you for the office of master of the buck -
hounds, as her majesty dislikes having
anybody connected with the royal house-
hold who uses bad language, but I will
recommend you for the lord high commis-
sionership to the general assembly of the
Church of Scotland." -
And, sure enough, Lord Galloway held
the lord high commissionership to the
general assembly of the Church of Scot-
land both in 1876 and 1877.

A SUNBURNED BALDHEACt.
The Curious Result That Showed
After the Burn Was Cured.
"Some time ago I read about a man
who went to the Sullivan-Kilrain prize-
fight and who was so badly sunburned
that he could not wear a laundered shirt
for a week afterward," remarked Old
Sport. "I was at that fight, and I know
that the story about the heat of the sun
on the spectators there that day in the
piny woods of Mississippi was no smok-
er's article or fairy story either. But I
know one man who blesses the sun for
what it did for him that day. That man
is Major Ed Hughes, a gentleman sport
and gambler and for many years at the
head of the fire department of Louisville.
Major Hughes was a warm friend of the
immortal John L. and was in mortal fear
at the time that he would not be able to
get leave of absence from the city coun-
cil that he might come down to New Or-
leans for the fight. The leave of absence
was so uncertain that he had to decline
the invitation of the champion to become
his bottle holder in the contest that was
fated to go down in the history of pugi-
lism as the last fight in America under
the London prize ring rules, calling for
bare knuckles. But Major Hughes final-
ly got his leave of absence and hurried
down to New Orleans, arriving here late
in the afternoon, but a few hours before
.the special trains were to leave for Rich -
burg.
"In the fighting crowds on the train go-
ing out to the fight a scrap started in
the coach in which was Major Hughes,
andin some way his straw hat was
knocked off in the scrimmage, and it was
lost out of the window. In that crowd
no man had two hats, and so the major
showed up at the ringside withnocovering
to his head. His head, if anything, was
balder than the proverbial billiard ball.
As the rays of the sun struck that oval
and shiny surface they glinted and rico-
chetted from it and were thrown with
almost blinding dazzlement into the eyes
of the spectators.
"When Sullivan saw his old friend, he
had Muldoon call him into their counsels,
and all during the fight that followed the
major helped hold Sullivan's bottle, and
he never tried to protect his head even
with a handkerchief. The result was
that after the five hours spent in that
roasting sun the top of the major's head
looked like the red back of a boiled lob-
ster, but he made light of it and helped
in the general celebration of Sullivan's
victory.
"The next morning the major's head
was a great big blister. Not a speck of
the cuticle of his head but was blistered,
and he had to hunt vinegar and cold
cream and all the other remedies known.
But on his head, from where the collar
struck it at the back of the neck and
front over the ears almost to his eye-
brows in front, the blisters festered.
Later a scab formed over all his head,
and when this fell off, mirabilo dictu,
there was a fuzzy growth all over his
head. That fuzz became hair, and in a
few weeks the major had. as fine a head
of hair as any man of his ago.".

Honor Paid e. Lineoln Letter.
This, letter has been engrossed, framed
and hung In one of the Oxford (England)
university halls as a specimen of the pur-
est English and the most elegant diction
extant:
Dear Madam—I have been shown in the files of
the war department a statement of the adjutant
general of Massachusetts that you were the mother
of five eons who have died gloriously on the bat-
tlefield. I feel how weak and fruitless must be
any word of mine which should attempt to be-
guile you from grief of a loss so overwhelming.
But I cannot refrain from tendering to you the
consolation that may be found in the thanks of
the republic they died to ave. I pray that our
Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your
bereavement and leave ypu only the cherished
memory of the loved and lost and the solemn
pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a
sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. Very respect-
fully yours, Ainunirt LINCOLN.
The Helpful Hen.
The city boy in the country also has
"experiences." The Portland Argus tells
of a little lad who by spending the sum-
mer on a farm learned many things.
It was a new experience for the little
fellow, and everything was `delightfully
unfamiliar. He found out for the first
time that hens made eggs, . and this
knowledge filled him with a desire to sea
one of them at work.
Being a patient waiter, the lad finally
had his wish gratified, and, exultantly
seizing the product of the cackling fowl,
he marched into the house with his prize.
"Let me have it," said the farmer's
wife, "and I'll cook it for your dinner."
"Oh, I guess the hen cooked it all
right," replied Master Carl. "It's warm."

treating fall wheat in a similar way, as it is being injured more and more each
year. In fact, he said, he had to_rejest a load this season entirely, as owing to
smut it was totally unfit for flour. - -
FARMERS 1 you know what rr Beaver Bland Formaldehyde" has done
for oats. I can't say that it will do as well for wheat, but it is worth trying.
I know that it will not injure the growth, the cost and trouble is trifling, and I
see no reason why it should not be equally effective. -
You will also find it, when well diluted, excellent for sprirkiing around
hen houses to destroy -lice, spiders,and other insects.

NINE BOILS,
FOUR RUNNING SORES,
The T. Milburn Co., Limited,
Toronto, Ont.
Some time ago my blood got out of
order and nine large boils appeared on
my neck, besides numerous small ones on
my shoulders and arms. Four running
sores appeared on my foot and leg and I
was in a terrible saate. A friend ad -;sed
Burdock Blood Bitters, so I procured three
bottles. After finishing the first bottle the
boils started to disappear and the sores to
heal up, After taking the third bottle
there was not a. boil or sore to be seen.
Besides this, the headaches from which I
suffered left me and I improved so much
that I am now strong and robust again.
Yours truly,
MISS MAGGIE WORTHINGTON,
