same through Him whose offering ot Him-

P. Paxson, the superintendent at the South-
west for the American Sunday school Union,
instanced the case of a gentleman now
living, who for twenty years gave $1,000 a
year for Sunday school missionary work.
This money had organized 3,390 schools,
with gmorc than 140,000 scholars. The
Union, in response,:pledged itself to support,
during 1881, two Sunday school missionar—
ies. ’

Palmertown appears to have a religious
liquor seller. On Monday he attempted to
whip an Irishman, who complained of him
to Prosecuting Agent Montgomery, but he
got his ear badly lacerated. Then he drove
to Mr. Montgomery’s house in this city and
made this speech: "Mr. Montgomery ?”
“Yes,” replied the stalwart temperance
preacher. “I am told, air, that you have
an information against. my place. I have
come up to settle. I don’t want any stir
made about it. I 'am willing to pay. any
amount. A disturbance at this time would
greatly interfere with our revival. We are
having a grand revival at Palmertown now,
you know. A sudden movement of this
kind might break it all up. I hope the Holy
Spirit will be poured out among us.” Then
dis laying his torn and bleeding car, be
ad ed: “And I hope, sir, that the man who
did this will be converted.” Mr. Montgom-
ery informed him that he could not settle it,
and the man went home disconsolate,—-Nor-

Umbrella flirtation—TO place your um-
brella in a rack indicates that it is about to .
change owners. An umbrella carried over
the woman, the man getting nothing but
the drippings Of the rain, signifies court-
ship. When the man has the umbrella and
the woman the drippings it indicates mar-
riage. To carry it at right angles under your
arm signifies that an eye is to be lost by the
man who follows you. To put a cotton
umbrella by the side of a silk one signifies
“exchange is no robbery.” To lend an um-
brella indicates “I am a fool.” To carry an
open umbrella just high enough to tear out
men’s eyes and knock off men’s hats sig-
nifies “I am a woman.”——-Boslon Transcript.

A Baltimore paper has'discovered why the
girls of that city are so enchanting. Ohio
girls, it says, cat pork and sauerkraut. Mas-
sachusetts girls eat codfish-balls, Virginia
girls eat bacon and greens, the Gulf States
girls eat guiimbo, New Hampshire girls eat
pie and doughnuts. and Kentucky girls eat
blue grass beef, and yet all these are prettier
than the girls of Europe. But the Baltimore
girl cats oysters, terrapin, canvass back
duck, bay mackerel. and soft-shell crabs. all
productive of beauty. Not only hasthe Bal—
timore girl become beautiful, but the canned.
oysters of ‘Baltimore have begun to make
beautiful the girls of the Mississipi Valley.—

From the Rochester Daily Union and Arl-
oerli'scr, Jan. 27, 1881:
An Extensive Contract awarded
to Rochester.
A contract for supplying a. part of the city
of Toronto, Ontario. with 95,040 feet of pipe
has just been awarded t5 the firm of Otis &
Gorsline,_ vitrified sewer pipe manufacturers
of this city. This pipe when laid will extend
some eighteen mile sand in Iransportatiori will
make over two hundred and fifty car-loads.
A great part of it is to be of the largest size
and will require many fittings, such as traps,
bends, branches, elc. Competing bids for
supplying this contract were made by Scotch
and English manufacturers, and also those in
eastern and western states, but on the ground
of superiority alone, it was awarded to the
Rochester firm. This is a matter for con—
gratulation as any home interest that com-
petes successfully with outside manufacturers
reflects great credit on our city. The favors
'with which the manufactured goods of Rock-
ester are meclingand the large and ever iii—
creasing demands for them illustrate both the
splendid position of this city as a manufac-
turing center and the ability and industry of
our citizens.
The factory of Otis & Gorslinc, situated on
Oak street, from a. small beginning five years
ago has increased year by year until now it
is one of the largest establishments of .the
kind in the country, and nearly every state is
numbered among its patrons.
