Some time since I referred to the fact that I hetd carefully preserved, arranged and filed ?\\ of Mr. Bowser's love letters, and I advised every bride to do the same thing. I now desire to reiterate that ad* vice. I really don't know-bow I could get along'with Mr. Bowser if I did not have this leverage on him. Like all other husbands, he has sudden fits and his hours of forget fulness. He wanted a pair of pincers to nee for something, and because they were not right at hand he made a gesture of despair and exclaimed: "Oh, of course I must get used to it, I suppose. Such a housekeeper as yon are, Mrs. Bowser I" "Here you are. You left them on the lounge yourself last night." "Lay it to me of course! What's that young 'on bellowing about now ?" "He fell down." "Doesn't he know enough to stand np ? Did the wood come up ?" "No." "It didn't ? -1 ordered it the first thing tKs-rnorninir t' -This is the worst run* house in Detroit?" ' "Do I ran the wood yards?" "Bat why didn't you tell me it hadn't come up? It's a wonder the girl hasn't quit to climax our troubles." "She went an hour ago!" Mr. Bowser sat down and looked at me a long time. Then he sighed deeply and said» "Well, 1 suppose I must Btand it, but it's hard.very hard. This is what comes of marrying a girl who.has been brought' up on'caramels-and novels." I went up stairs and brought down the package of letters. Selecting one marked: "Exhibit A.sled September 10,1884," I began to read:. ... "My Aitgel 03te.I send you another box of caramrils and five of the latest novels, arid Iliope you will thoroughly enjoy them. You were lamenting the fact that you knew so little housework. I am glad.of it. Angels are not expected to7 fry pork and; wash dishes. You shall have a dozen^bousekeepera when we are married, and you shall never know a household care." "That's, a base forgery I" shouted Mr. Bowaer, as I £nished reading. "Ob, no, it isn't. I expected the day would come when you would say bo, and so I prepared for it See here; my moth¬ er attests it aa a-witness." ."Well, if I wrote it I musthave been asleep;" '.- ."And only the other day, Mr."Bowser, when I got a nev;' dress home, you said I hadn't any more taste than a clam, and that my ideas of harmony would stop a clock." "Yes, and I- meant it. You were alwayathat way." "Waal?" C.; I selected a letter marked "Exhibit A .2.filed Sept. 18,1884," andread: "My Beaittifül.The picture, of my dear one as she appeared to me last night has been with me all day. You have the t&ato of a queen in ydflr toilet, and har¬ mony is second nature with yon. Ohl my little angel, you." ~ "I wrote that, did I?" sternly demand¬ ed Mr. Bowser. "Of course.?;; ' jg "Never ! The man who says I was ever fool enough to write such staff must die lh v "It is duly attested, Mr. Bowser, and; you can't deny your writing.. I haven't changed a bit In my tastes since our mar* riage. Indeed, I think I have improved." "There goes thstyoung 'an again! He isn't happy unless he is bettering, like a calf mired in a diieb." .; - "Bat see here, Mr, Bowser." And I selected $ telegram marked, "Exhibit B.l.original," and attested by father, mother, and nurse, and read; -^Chicago, Nov. 20, 1887.-My.Dar- ling: Thank-God for the news of the birth of our son? My heart swells with love and gratitude. It is oar bond of love. Heaven has surely blessed ns. Again, thank God. Will be home Sun¬ day night. BOWSER." "I neversent it 1" Khooted Bowser. "Ye3 you did 1" Horo is the proof to convict you. There isn't a mention about fcalf in this, and as for.'bettering,' yon never dreamed of it." "Oh, well, have ii. your own way. You'd have the last word if I was dying. Some wives are bail t that way. If I was like some husbands I would assert .my authority." . ' "Butyou are not, Mr* Bowser, as this will prove." And I selected a letter marked exhibit Ö.1.original," and attested and read: My Deabest Love.In reference to our conversation last night, I wish to say that I have always held and always shall hold that husband and wife shall be equal in authority. Neither has the right to dictate to the other, though if either had that right I should give it all to yon. We-shali never have a word of dispute.not one. If there is any 'boss¬ ing' you may do it." "And you dare charge me with writing such start as that I" gasped Mr. Bowser. "I do; here is the proof, and you can't wiggle out of it." "I wrote 'dearest love,' did I ?" "You did. Iadeed, Mr. Bowser, you were far gone abont those days." "I was, eh! Well, you can't make me helieve that T over wrote weh infernal D03h as that! You'll next charge me with writing up in verse." ' "You even did that, sir. just wait." 1 selected a letter 'marked "Exhibit 0 1.very choice," and read: The twilight cometh softly down, As sinks the sun away, And little children go to bed All weary with their pl*.v. Where ia my love this glorious eve? Where doth her proud foot rest ? And where that head of golden hair That I shall ever bless ? "And you say I wrote that 1'* whis¬ pered Mr. Bowser. "You did. It's a beautiful thing, too. I can Bee those little children going right to bed. You spoke of my hoofs the other day, and you had a slur about my red bead I Only four' years ago it was my 'proud foot' and my 'golden head.'" He wrb silent. "Du you want any more, My. Bowser ?" ' I asked. ''Mrs. Bowser, I don't say you are uot as good as tho average wife, but I do say that you have a mighty mean streak in your composition. It may he possible that while I lay burning with fever, or while Buffering a .nervous attack, I may have written a portion of those letters. The rest are base forgeries, of course, and you are holding them over me as a men¬ ace. Is that wifely ?" "Why, Mr. Bowser, do you deny your own handwriting ?" "I have not Been the writing and don't want to. Don't threaten me, Mrs. Bow- ser; I can be coaxed, but not driven. Gases have been known where husbands walked out and never returned." But that was only his way of wrig¬ gling out of it. The. nest day he sent me up a new dress, took baby for a long walk and at present is the most docile busband iu Detroit..Detroit Free Prm. No Cure for Baldness. "Can hair be made to grow on bald heads ?" said a fashionable hairdresser in response to a New York Mailand Express reporter's query. "Yes.and no. If a person becomes bald owing to illness the hair can be iaade to grow again. In fact, it will grow again without making, but it can be aided and stimulated in its growth by tonic. But if a person is de¬ prived of his or her hair by natural loss of vitality, it will not grow again, and nothing has ever been compounded that will restore it. Natural baldness comes on gradually, and the awful day of its complete triumph over the hair's exist, ence may be postponed by the use of tonics, but the final catastrophe cannot be prevented. Long experience-has taught me that fact, although years ago I had the personal opinion of the renowned Dr. Brazin, of Paris, to that effect. I have dressed heads for more than a quarter of a century. I have lamented with hun¬ dreds of my patrons, from whose hands not only the hand of. time but the indis¬ cretions and carelessness of youth were gradually but persistently blucking the natural and often luxuriant coxeting, and have anointed, drenched and plastered their too apparent polls with lotions, tonics and pom&tumB, and rubbed and kneaded and manipulated their failing scalps until if there had been one ember of hair fire left slumbering there it must surely have been brought back to its wonted fire and vigor, and have given it up at last and handed them the card of the wigmaker. If I have used one hair restorative I have used five hundred, and every one was warranted to not only pre¬ vent baldness, but to restore to bald heads their sometime hirsute glory. Look at me. See what a remarkable growth and youthful gloss of hair I have. It has not changed in twenty five years. Why ?" The hair-dresser seized his soft brown hair with both hands, and with a vicious jerk removed it from his head. It was a costly wig, and his head was as whlta and bare as a billiard ball, "That is why!" he murmured, bitterly. "And I am -not only a hair-dresaer, but one skilled in every tonsorial art f If there were help for baldness other than the skill of the wigraaker, do you suppose for a moment that I, of all men, would not know it, and, knowing it, would' not only have-'rescued myself, bat have saved to myself hundreds of my most profitable customers ? If that is not proof enough that a man once bald is always bold, just call mind doctors of your own acquaintance who are bald as glass globes. They are learned in the mysteries of drugs and their preparation. They know what rosult their combination and application will produce. If any one living were capable of caring baldness some one among these experts in the science of medicine ought to know. You never had occasion to go to a doctor to get a pre¬ scription for baldness. I have, " [Come to me for a cure for anything elije£ my medical; adviser said. 'Auy- rtiilhg else,' said he,1 'andI will cure you. 'But* baldness1 Why my dear sir, Escula- pins himself was as bald.as bald as- well as bald as I am !" "And-he was bald, this doctor of mine. An .onion has more hair than he had! No,;my;son.) If'there: lurked anywhere in all the materia medica, of not only thniage, bat of past ages, the name^of one little drag or herb or whatever yon may call it, that could bid even one there Id be no bald doctors nor bald hair- arisen, and the discoverer of this boon would live longer in the hearts of men that;-the much-spoken-of individual who is expected to reach the summit of all greatness some day by making two bladtjs of grass grow where only one grew before." - The Best He Could. An old farmer In one of the New England States had a son whose actions sometimes indicated a lack of common sense; but with natural parental love and consideration, the old gentleman excused all his short comings by Baying, "He does tltie best he can, Jimmy doss," which was perhaps true. Wh(5n; Jimmy was twenty-one or twenty three years of age he went to work for a farmer living in a- neighboring county. ( : Three months after his departure he uurpriaßd his parents by writing to them that he had been married and* would visit them the following week. Preparations for receiving the young couple in a manner befitting the bride and bridegroom were at once begun, and when they arrived they found all the groom's relatives gathered to receive them. The bride was a dull looking and by no means handsome young woman, and for a moment the father-in-law seemed disappointed; then, his better nature asserting itself, he greeted her warmly, and turning to his son said, with his old time optimistic cheer¬ fulness: "Welcome home, Jimmy; welcome, ray boy; ye did the best ye could, I've no doubt; welcome home, my daughter." . His name is B. J. McKinney, his residence is Woodbury, Hill County, Texas; bis statement May 1889: My little son was cured by S. S. S. of bad sores and ulcers, the result of a general breaking down of his health from fever. He was considered incurable, but two bottles of Swift's Specific brought him out all right. . Mr. John King, of Jackson, Miss.« says that he was cured of rheumatism in his feet and legs by taking Swift's Spe¬ cific. This was after he had tried many oi her remedies, both internal and external and paid many doctor's bill. . In England and France many wo¬ men dress in men's clothes all the time. They claim that when they pass them¬ selves off for men they get better wagea and suffer less annoyance. . Swift's Specific has saved me years of untold misery by relieving a partial paralysis in my left side. This was after I had been treated by best physicians in St. Louis and Chicago. The trouble was caused by some derangement of my blood, which has been corrected by S. S. S. T. A. Sheppart, Sherman, Texas. . B. 0. Gilbert, of Purdy, Mo., says Swift's Specific cured him of Eczema on bis limbs and body. He took only two small bottles. Principles of lue Alabama Fanners' Al¬ liance. We, the farmers of Alabama, feeling the importance of a closer bond of union between us, in order to a better regulation of our financial and home interest, natu¬ rally agree to form ourselves into an asso¬ ciation tobe called the Farmers' Alliance. These are our principles: 1. We believe in the existence of a Su¬ preme Being, who rules and governs the universe. 2. We believe the Bible to be the book of truth, and adopt it as our way bill through life. 8. We believe in and assert the dignity of agriculture. 4. We aim to bring about the adoption by our class, of more improved methods of farming. 5. We believe in the acquirement of scientific agriculture. 6. We labor for the higher education of our clasB generally. 7. \y*e favor the adoption of all labor- saving implements snd machinery in farm W>rk. 8. We labor to adorn and beautify our homes, and render farm life more attract¬ ive. 9. 'We labor to bring about among our class a better feeling socially. 10. We labor for the education of our class in the science of economic government in a strictly non-partisan spirit. 11. We believe in the enactment of but few laws, and these laws to be faithfully executed. 12. We believe in the principle of equal rights to all, and special favors to none. 13. We believe in the principle of let" ting the office seek the man and not the man the office. 14. We are unqualifiedly opposed to anarchy, socialism, communism and ag- rarianism in whatever form it .presents itself. 15. We believe it essential to free gov¬ ernment that every man who can own a permanent interest in tbe soil. 16. We are utterly opposed to all mo¬ nopoly, as contrary to our institutions and dangerous to the liberties of the peo¬ ple. 17. Lobbying we believe to be againBt the welfare of the people, and should by law be punished1,. 18. Dealing in futures in agricultural products we believe to be greatly demor¬ alizing to the country, deranging to all just values, and should be by law sup¬ pressed. 19. We aim to inaugurate among our¬ selves a system of co-operation in buying and selling, and to try by all just means to better our condition financially. 20. We believe in the doctrine "pay as yon go," and urge upon the farmers the abandonment of the credit system as speedily as possible. , 21. We wage no war upon any other class except extortioners, but recognize the right of all to better their condition by just and honest methods. 22. We believe in the right of any man to acquire as much money as he can honestly, provided he does not use it to the injury of another. 23. It is against the spirit of this Order for one member to go to law with another, but all disputes should be settled among themselves, or failing in this, by arbitra¬ tion. . 24. We labor to suppress all persona^ local and sectional prejudices, all unfriendly rivalry, and all selfish ambi. tiou. 25. We labor -to create a better understanding for sustaining our civil officers in maintaining law and order. 26. We Btrive to secure entire harmony and good will among mankind, snd brotherly love among members. 27. We adopt the motto: "In things essential, unity; in all things, charity/' 28. Our imperative commands are, to visit the sick, comfort the distressed, re¬ lieve the wants of a brother or Bister bury tbe dead, care far the widow, edu¬ cate the orphan, exercise charity toward offenders, construe words and actions in .their most favorable light, granting to others honesty of purpose and good inten¬ tions, and to protect and defend the prin¬ ciples of the Farmers' Alliance until death. Oar laws are founded with reason and equity, our cardinal doctrines inspire purity of thought and life, our intentions are: "On earth peace, good will to men." "He Got It." A Boston journal says: "Among the passengers "on the St. Louis Express yes¬ terday was a woman very much over- dressed accompanied by a bright looking nurse girl and a self-willed, tyrannical boy of about three years. "The boy aroused the indignation of the passengers by his continued shrieks and kicks, and screams, and his vicious- ness toward the patient nurse. He tore her bonnet, scratched her hands, and finally spat in her face, without a word of remonstrance from her mother. "Whenever the nurse manifested any firmness, the mother would chide her sharply. "Finally the mother composed herself for a nap, and about the time the boy had slapped the nurse for the fiftieth time, a wasp came sailing in, and flew on the nurse's seat. The boy at once tried to catch it. "The nurse caught his hand, and said coaxingly: " 'Harry musn't touch * Bug will bite Harrj' 1' "Harry screamed savagely, and began to kick and pound the nurse. ' "The mother, without opening her eyes or lifting her head, cried out sharp- ly: .' 'Why will you tease that child, bo Mary? Let him have what he wants at once." "But, ma'am, it's a.' " 'Let him have it, I say.' "Thus oncouragedj Harry clutched at the wasp and caught it. The yell that followed brought tears of joy to the pas¬ sengers. "The mother awoke again. " 'Mary I' she cried, 'let him have itI' " 'Mary turned in her seat, and said, confusedly: - " 'Ble's got it, ma'am!" Bncklcn's Arnica Salve.

Cucumbers are vegetables most uni¬ versally used for pickles, and there are several ways of preparing them. Which method is the best is a disputed question. The time-honored process given may be the longest, but probably the majority of the housekeepers consider it the best. Oaoose only gherkins, or small cucum¬ bers, as smali as your finger. Put them into an !oaken tub or a large stone jar, and pour on them a brine made of rock- salt, and strong enough to hold up a potato. Sink a plate in the brine to keep the cucumbers under the surface, and at the end of twenty-four hours stir them up with your hand from the brine; scald it, and after you have washed the cucumbers pour it over them. In three days more repeat the process, and at the end of the ninth day throw away the brine, wash the cucumbers in ice-water, and if they are too sslty, let soak in clear water several hours, and then drain them. After this 'pour cold vinegar over the pickles, cover them with green cabbage leaves, add a email lump of alum, the size of a walnut, to a gallon kettle, and let the vinegar come to a boil. Remove from the fire at once, and at the end of a day or two drain the pickles, and cover them with cold cider vinegar pure and strong. If you wish to add spice, put a cup of sugar, lihree dozen whole black peppers, three dozen cloves, one dozen blades of mace, and the same amount of allspice, to each gallon of vinegar. These pickles will be a handsome green, which they never will be if they are taken from the brine, and simply pat into cold or hot vinegar. If the vinegar is scalded iu which they are put away for the winter, half the strength passes off in steam, and the pickles will not keep so well as those put up in cold vin¬ egar. If the tub or stone jar in which they were soaked is used to keep them in, it should be carefully washed from any taint of the brine. These pickles will be ready for the table at the end of six weeks. Some would use them sooner, They are better kept in vinegar three months before they are eaten. Excess of Outward Mourning. We go through a great deal of false sentiment and false politeness in the matter of our funeral ceremonies and .cur mourning attire. In the youthful days of our present sexagenarians the mark of mourning.a piece of black crape around the Bleeve of a colored coat.was reserved for the army only. Army and navy offi¬ cers alone might make this modest mani¬ festation stand in lieu of the glossy Bahlen and deep hat bands of civilians. There was a howl, as well as a sneer, when these civilians adopted the military custom, and on the sleeve of a colored coat stitch¬ ed a black band to denote the death of a dear friend or relation. Howls and sneers notwithstanding, tbe custom gain¬ ed ground, and is now recognized, adopt¬ ed and approved of. There are many who set their faces against the excessive mourning of by¬ gone attire. No longer do all widows even think it necessary to clothe them¬ selves in crape and the life long obligation of the widow's black is at an end. Those who like to cling to the ancient methods have their will and do their pleasure, but those who do not.those who carry death in their hearts and do not care to show it to the world.or those who are not really deeply afflicted.may dispense with mourning altogether, if they have the mind. Simple black answers all the purpose, and the term for this is greatly curtailed. We no longer feel that we owe it to the memory of the dear dead, to make ourselves uncomfortable, and to spend money on mere show.on mere signs and symbols.to gratify the watch¬ ing world. Deep in our hearts we bear the sacred image.we keep alive the holy flame. We have loved that noble man, that pure-soiiled woman.the father, the husband, the glorious brother, the moth¬ er who bore us, and the sister who was our cradle playmate. We have loved for all our life r we shall love to the hour of death. But need we then clothe our¬ selves in crape and woolen, and mark OurselveB "Bereaved" as by a placard pinned to our breast ? Far better and more suitable.aye, and sometimes far more sincere, too.the undemonstrative acceptance of the inevitable.the quiet cherishing of secret sorrow.the close concealment of the. sacred love. The sorrow lies there, and we do not wish to show it to the world as a beggar unfolds his sore. We do not wish to be question¬ ed nor condoled with. Who can comfort us ? No one! What good does it do us or the world to flaunt our grief in crape and weepers in the face of tbe curious, the unsympathetic, the critical? "Too much," or "two little," or "too soon left off," or '"too long kept on"."the fashion too smart for monrniug," or "the depth ridiculous for the occasion." Do we want to ran the gauntlet after all our dead friends' criticism!? Far better tbe slightest indication that is possible. so slight as to escape general notice. than this which attracts general atten¬ tion. . "What is an epistle ?" asked a Sun- day-school teacher of her class. "The wife of an apostle," replied the young hopeful. Presents in the most elegant form THE LAXATIVE AND NUTRITIOU8 OUICE .OF THE.

    & SON .

    Mir« and firs. Bowser,by mrs. bowseb.

    Some time since I referred to the factthat I hetd carefully preserved, arrangedand filed ?\\ of Mr. Bowser's love letters,and I advised every bride to do the samething. I now desire to reiterate that ad*vice. I really don't know-bow I couldget along'with Mr. Bowser if I did nothave this leverage on him. Like allother husbands, he has sudden fits and hishours of forgetfulness. He wanted apair of pincers to nee for something, andbecause they were not right at hand hemade a gesture ofdespair and exclaimed:"Oh, of course I must get used to it, I

    suppose. Such a housekeeper as yon are,Mrs. Bowser I""Here you are. You left them on the

    lounge yourself last night.""Lay it to me of course! What's that

    young 'on bellowing about now ?""He fell down.""Doesn't he know enough to stand np ?

    Did the wood come up ?""No.""It didn't ? -1 ordered it the first thing

    tKs-rnorninir t' -This is the worst run*house in Detroit?" '"Do I ran the wood yards?""Bat why didn't you tell me it hadn't

    come up? It's a wonder the girl hasn'tquit to climax our troubles.""She went an hour ago!"Mr. Bowser sat down and looked at me

    a long time. Then he sighed deeply andsaid»

    "Well, 1 suppose I must Btand it, butit's hard.very hard. This is what comesof marrying a girl who.has been brought'up on'caramels-and novels."

    I went up stairs and brought down thepackage of letters. Selecting one marked:"Exhibit A.sled September 10,1884,"I began to read:. ..."My Aitgel 03te.I send you another

    box of caramrils and five of the latestnovels, arid Iliope you will thoroughlyenjoy them. You were lamenting thefact that you knew so little housework.I am glad.of it. Angels are not expectedto7 fry pork and; wash dishes. You shallhave a dozen^bousekeepera when we aremarried, and you shall never know ahousehold care."

    "That's, a base forgery I" shouted Mr.Bowaer, as I £nished reading."Ob, no, it isn't. I expected the day

    would come when you would say bo, andso I prepared for it See here; my moth¬er attests it aa a-witness."."Well, if I wrote it I musthave been

    asleep;"'.-."And only the other day, Mr."Bowser,

    when I got a nev;' dress home, you said Ihadn't any more taste than a clam, andthat my ideas of harmony would stop aclock.""Yes, and I- meant it. You were

    alwayathat way.""Waal?" C.;I selected a letter marked "Exhibit A

    .2.filed Sept. 18,1884," andread:"My Beaittifül.The picture, of my

    dear one as she appeared to me last nighthas been with me all day. You have thet&ato of a queen in ydflr toilet, and har¬mony is second nature with yon. Ohlmy little angel, you." ~"I wrote that, did I?" sternly demand¬

    ed Mr. Bowser."Of course.?;;

    '

    jg"Never ! The man who says I was ever

    fool enough to write such staff must die lhv "It is duly attested, Mr. Bowser, and;you can't deny your writing.. I haven'tchanged a bitIn my tastes since our mar*riage. Indeed, I think I have improved.""There goes thstyoung 'an again!

    He isn't happy unless he is bettering, likea calf mired in a diieb." .;- "Bat see here, Mr, Bowser."And I selected $ telegram marked,

    "Exhibit B.l.original," and attestedby father, mother,and nurse, and read;-^Chicago, Nov. 20, 1887.-My.Dar-

    ling: Thank-God for the news of thebirth of our son? My heart swells withlove and gratitude. It is oar bond oflove. Heaven has surely blessed ns.Again, thank God. Will be home Sun¬day night.

    BOWSER.""I neversent it 1" Khooted Bowser."Ye3 you did 1" Horo is the proof to

    convict you. There isn't a mention aboutfcalf in this, and as for.'bettering,' yonnever dreamed of it.""Oh, well, have ii. your own way.

    You'd have the last word if I was dying.Some wives are bail t that way. If I waslike some husbands I would assert .myauthority." .' "Butyou are not, Mr* Bowser, as thiswill prove."And I selected a letter marked exhibit

    Ö.1.original," and attested and read:My Deabest Love.In reference to

    our conversation last night, I wish to saythat I have always held and always shallhold that husband and wife shall beequal in authority. Neither has theright to dictate to the other, though ifeither had that right I should give it allto yon. We-shali never have a word ofdispute.not one. If there is any 'boss¬ing' you may do it.""And you dare charge me with writing

    such start as that I" gasped Mr. Bowser."I do; here is the proof, and you can't

    wiggle out of it.""I wrote 'dearest love,' did I ?""You did. Iadeed, Mr. Bowser, you

    were far gone abont those days.""I was, eh! Well, you can't make me

    helieve that T over wrote weh infernalD03h as that! You'll next charge mewith writing up in verse."

    ' "You even did that, sir. just wait."1 selected a letter 'marked "Exhibit 0

    1.very choice," and read:The twilight cometh softly down,As sinks the sun away,

    And little children go to bedAll weary with their pl*.v.

    Where ia my love this glorious eve?Where doth her proud foot rest ?

    And where that head of golden hairThat I shall ever bless ?

    "And you say I wrote that 1'* whis¬pered Mr. Bowser."You did. It's a beautiful thing, too.

    I can Bee those little children going rightto bed. You spoke ofmy hoofs the otherday, and you had a slur about my redbead I Only four' years ago it was my'proud foot' and my 'golden head.'"He wrb silent."Du you want any more, My. Bowser ?"

    ' I asked.''Mrs. Bowser, I don't say you are uot

    as good as tho average wife, but I do saythat you have a mighty mean streak inyour composition. It may he possiblethat while I lay burning with fever, orwhile Buffering a .nervous attack, I mayhave written a portion of those letters.The rest are base forgeries, of course, andyou are holding them over me as a men¬ace. Is that wifely ?"

    "Why, Mr. Bowser, do you deny yourown handwriting ?""I have not Been the writing and don't

    want to. Don't threaten me, Mrs. Bow-ser; I can be coaxed, but not driven.Gases have been known where husbandswalked out and never returned."But that was only his way of wrig¬

    gling out of it. The. nest day he sent meup a new dress, took baby for a long walkand at present is the most docile busbandiu Detroit..Detroit Free Prm.

    No Cure for Baldness.

    "Can hair be made to grow on baldheads ?" said a fashionable hairdresser inresponse to a New York Mailand Expressreporter's query. "Yes.and no. If aperson becomes bald owing to illness thehair can be iaade to grow again. Infact, it will grow again without making,but it can be aided and stimulated in itsgrowth by tonic. But if a person is de¬prived of his or her hair by natural lossof vitality, it will not grow again, andnothing has ever been compounded thatwill restore it. Natural baldness comeson gradually, and the awful day of itscomplete triumph over the hair's exist,ence may be postponed by the use oftonics, but the final catastrophe cannot beprevented. Long experience-has taughtme that fact, although years ago I had thepersonal opinion of the renowned Dr.Brazin, of Paris, to that effect. I havedressed heads for more than a quarter ofa century. I have lamented with hun¬dreds of my patrons, from whose handsnot only the hand of. time but the indis¬cretions and carelessness of youth weregradually but persistently blucking thenatural and often luxuriant coxeting, andhave anointed, drenched and plasteredtheir too apparent polls with lotions,tonics and pom&tumB, and rubbed andkneaded and manipulated their failingscalps until if there had been one emberof hair fire left slumbering there it mustsurely have been brought back to itswonted fire and vigor, and have given itup at last and handed them the card ofthe wigmaker. If I have used one hairrestorative I have used five hundred, andevery one was warranted to not only pre¬vent baldness, but to restore to bald headstheir sometime hirsute glory. Look atme. See what a remarkable growth andyouthful gloss of hair I have. It has notchanged in twenty five years. Why ?"The hair-dresser seized his soft brown

    hair with both hands, and with a viciousjerk removed it from his head. It was acostly wig, and his head was as whlta andbare as a billiard ball,"That is why!" he murmured, bitterly.

    "And I am -not only a hair-dresaer, butone skilled in every tonsorial art f Ifthere were help for baldness other thanthe skill of the wigraaker, do you supposefor a moment that I, of all men, wouldnot know it, and, knowing it, would' notonly have-'rescued myself, bat havesaved to myself hundreds of my mostprofitable customers ? If that is not proofenough that a man once bald is alwaysbold, just call mind doctors of your ownacquaintance who are bald as glass globes.They are learned in the mysteries ofdrugsand their preparation. They know whatrosult their combination and applicationwill produce. If any one living werecapable of caring baldness some oneamong these experts in the science ofmedicine ought to know. You never hadoccasion to go to a doctor to get a pre¬scription for baldness. I have," [Come to me for a cure for anything

    elije£ my medical; adviser said. 'Auy-rtiilhg else,' said he,1 'andI will cure you.'But*baldness1 Why my dear sir, Escula-pins himself was as bald.as bald as-well as bald as I am !""And-he was bald, this doctor of mine.

    An .onion has more hair than he had!No,;my;son.) If'there: lurked anywherein all the materia medica, of not onlythniage, bat of past ages, the name^ofone little drag or herb or whatever yonmay call it, that could bid even one there

    Id be no bald doctors nor bald hair-arisen, and the discoverer of this boonwould live longer in the hearts of menthat;-the much-spoken-of individual whois expected to reach the summit of allgreatness some day by making twobladtjs of grass grow where only one grewbefore."

    - The Best He Could.

    An old farmer In one of the NewEngland States had a son whose actionssometimes indicated a lack of commonsense; but with natural parental love andconsideration, the old gentleman excusedall his short comings by Baying, "Hedoes tltie best he can, Jimmy doss," whichwas perhaps true.

    Wh(5n; Jimmy was twenty-one ortwenty three years of age he went to workfor a farmer living in a- neighboringcounty. ( :Three months after his departure he

    uurpriaßd his parents by writing tothem that he had been marriedand* would visit them the followingweek.

    Preparations for receiving the youngcouple in a manner befitting the brideand bridegroom were at once begun, andwhen they arrived they found all thegroom's relatives gathered to receivethem.The bride was a dull looking and

    by no means handsome young woman,and for a moment the father-in-lawseemed disappointed; then, his betternature asserting itself, he greetedher warmly, and turning to his sonsaid, with his old time optimistic cheer¬fulness:"Welcome home, Jimmy; welcome,

    ray boy; ye did the best ye could,I've no doubt; welcome home, mydaughter.". His name is B. J. McKinney, his

    residence is Woodbury, Hill County,Texas; bis statement May 1889: Mylittle son was cured by S. S. S. of badsores and ulcers, the result of a generalbreaking down of his health from fever.He was considered incurable, but twobottles of Swift's Specific brought himout all right.. Mr. John King, of Jackson, Miss.«

    says that he was cured of rheumatism inhis feet and legs by taking Swift's Spe¬cific. This was after he had tried manyoi her remedies, both internal and externaland paid many doctor's bill.. In England and France many wo¬

    men dress in men's clothes all the time.They claim that when they pass them¬selves off for men they get better wageaand suffer less annoyance.. Swift's Specific has saved me years

    of untold misery by relieving a partialparalysis in my left side. This was afterI had been treated by best physicians inSt. Louis and Chicago. The trouble wascaused by some derangement of my blood,which has been corrected by S. S. S.

    Principles of lue Alabama Fanners' Al¬liance.

    We, the farmers of Alabama, feelingthe importance of a closer bond of unionbetween us, in order to a better regulationof our financial and home interest, natu¬rally agree to form ourselves into an asso¬ciation tobe called the Farmers' Alliance.These are our principles:

    1. We believe in the existence of a Su¬preme Being, who rules and governs theuniverse.2. We believe the Bible to be the book

    of truth, and adopt it as our way billthrough life.

    8. We believe in and assert the dignityof agriculture.

    4. We aim to bring about the adoptionby our class, of more improved methodsof farming.

    5. We believe in the acquirement ofscientific agriculture.

    6. We labor for the higher education ofour clasB generally.

    7. \y*e favor the adoption of all labor-saving implements snd machinery in farmW>rk.

    yon go," and urge upon the farmers theabandonment of the credit system asspeedily as possible. ,

    21. We wage no war upon any otherclass except extortioners, but recognizethe right of all to better their conditionby just and honest methods.

    22. We believe in the right ofany manto acquire as much money as he canhonestly, provided he does not use it tothe injury of another.

    23. It is against the spirit of this Orderfor one member to go to law with another,but all disputes should be settled amongthemselves, or failing in this, by arbitra¬tion.

    equity, our cardinal doctrines inspirepurity of thought and life, our intentionsare: "On earth peace, good will to men."

    "He Got It."

    A Boston journal says: "Among thepassengers "on the St. Louis Express yes¬terdaywas awoman verymuch over- dressedaccompanied by a bright looking nursegirl and a self-willed, tyrannical boy ofabout three years."The boy aroused the indignation of

    the passengers by his continued shrieksand kicks, and screams, and his vicious-ness toward the patient nurse. He toreher bonnet, scratched her hands, andfinally spat in her face, without a word ofremonstrance from her mother."Whenever the nurse manifested any

    firmness, the mother would chide hersharply.

    "Finally the mother composed herselffor a nap, and about the time the boy hadslapped the nurse for the fiftieth time, awasp came sailing in, and flew on thenurse's seat. The boy at once tried tocatch it."The nurse caught his hand, and said

    coaxingly:" 'Harry musn't touch * Bug will bite

    Harrj' 1'"Harry screamed savagely, and began

    to kick and pound the nurse.' "The mother, without opening hereyes or lifting her head, cried out sharp-ly:

    .' 'Why will you tease that child, boMary? Let him have what he wants atonce."

    "But, ma'am, it's a.'" 'Let him have it, I say.'"Thus oncouragedj Harry clutched at

    the wasp and caught it. The yell thatfollowed brought tears of joy to the pas¬sengers."The mother awoke again." 'Mary I' she cried, 'let him have itI'" 'Mary turned in her seat, and said,

    confusedly: -" 'Ble's got it, ma'am!"

    Cucumber Pickles.

    Cucumbers are vegetables most uni¬versally used for pickles, and there areseveral ways of preparing them. Whichmethod is the best is a disputed question.The time-honored process given may bethe longest, but probably the majority ofthe housekeepers consider it the best.Oaoose only gherkins, or small cucum¬bers, as smali as your finger. Put theminto an !oaken tub or a large stone jar,and pour on them a brine made of rock-salt, and strong enough to hold up apotato. Sink a plate in the brine tokeep the cucumbers under the surface,and at the end of twenty-four hours stirthem up with your hand from the brine;scald it, and after you have washed thecucumbers pour it over them. In threedays more repeat the process, and at theend of the ninth day throw away thebrine, wash the cucumbers in ice-water,and if they are too sslty, let soak in clearwater several hours, and then drain them.After this 'pour cold vinegar over thepickles, cover them with green cabbageleaves, add a email lump of alum, thesize of a walnut, to a gallon kettle, andlet the vinegar come to a boil. Removefrom the fire at once, and at the end of aday or two drain the pickles, and coverthem with cold cider vinegar pure andstrong. If you wish to add spice, put acup of sugar, lihree dozen whole blackpeppers, three dozen cloves, one dozenblades of mace, and the same amount ofallspice, to each gallon of vinegar.These pickles will be a handsome green,which they never will be if they aretaken from the brine, and simply patinto cold or hot vinegar. If the vinegaris scalded iu which they are put awayfor the winter, half the strength passesoff in steam, and the pickles will notkeep so well as those put up in cold vin¬egar. If the tub or stone jar in whichthey were soaked is used to keep them in,it should be carefully washed from anytaint of the brine. These pickles will beready for the table at the end of sixweeks. Some would use them sooner,They are better kept in vinegar threemonths before they are eaten.

    Excess of Outward Mourning.We go through a great deal of false

    sentiment and false politeness in thematter of our funeral ceremonies and .curmourning attire. In the youthful daysof our present sexagenarians the mark ofmourning.a piece of black crape aroundthe Bleeve of a colored coat.was reservedfor the army only. Army and navy offi¬cers alone might make this modest mani¬festation stand in lieu of the glossy Bahlenand deep hat bands of civilians. Therewas a howl, as well as a sneer, when thesecivilians adopted the military custom,and on the sleeve of a colored coat stitch¬ed a black band to denote the death of adear friend or relation. Howls andsneers notwithstanding, tbe custom gain¬ed ground, and is now recognized, adopt¬ed and approved of.There are many who set their faces

    against the excessive mourning of by¬gone attire. No longer do all widowseven think it necessary to clothe them¬selves in crape and the life long obligationof the widow's black is at an end. Thosewho like to cling to the ancient methodshave their will and do their pleasure, butthose who do not.those who carry deathin their hearts and do not care toshow it to the world.or those who arenot really deeply afflicted.may dispensewith mourning altogether, if they havethe mind. Simple black answers all thepurpose, and the term for this is greatlycurtailed. We no longer feel that weowe it to the memory of the dear dead, tomake ourselves uncomfortable, and tospend money on mere show.on meresigns and symbols.to gratify the watch¬ing world. Deep in our hearts we bearthe sacred image.we keep alive the holyflame. We have loved that noble man,that pure-soiiled woman.the father, thehusband, the glorious brother, the moth¬er who bore us, and the sister who wasour cradle playmate. We have loved forall our life r we shall love to the hour ofdeath. But need we then clothe our¬selves in crape and woolen, and markOurselveB "Bereaved" as by a placardpinned to our breast ? Far better andmore suitable.aye, and sometimes farmore sincere, too.the undemonstrativeacceptance of the inevitable.the quietcherishing of secret sorrow.the closeconcealment of the. sacred love. Thesorrow lies there, and we do not wish toshow it to the world as a beggar unfoldshis sore. We do not wish to be question¬ed nor condoled with. Who can comfortus ? No one! What good does it do usor the world to flaunt our grief in crapeand weepers in the face of tbe curious,the unsympathetic, the critical? "Toomuch," or "two little," or "too soon leftoff," or '"too long kept on"."the fashiontoo smart for monrniug," or "the depthridiculous for the occasion." Do we wantto ran the gauntlet after all our deadfriends' criticism!? Far better tbeslightest indication that is possible.so slight as to escape general notice.than this which attracts general atten¬tion.
