Elden request your presence at the marriage of their daughter Eldona to An­ drew J, Packard, Wednesday morn­ ing, Feb. 27, 1878, at ten o'clock, at the residence of her grandfather, the Hon. John Milliken, Saco, Me." And thereto hangs a romance which the en­ terprising City of Youngstown, where resides the hero in the case, has ma­ terially aided in furnishing. For some time past the newspapers have con­ tained variously-worded paragraphs telling how a young Maine maiden won a husband in consequence of publicity, »nd expressly declaring that she was not looking after one. Some of these paragraphs were wide of the mark, and it remained for the Evening Post, at Biddeford, Me., to tell what is, perhaps, the true history, in the following: "In 1873, among the graduates of the Biddeford High School, was a young lady of perhaps nineteen summers-- bright, intelligent and pretty. She took part in the graduating exercises of her class, and read an essay, entitled • After Graduation, What?' The arti­ cle complete was printed in local jour­ nals, and extracts from it found their way into newspapers in all parts of the country. Some time in 1873, a certain Mr. Packard, a wholesale dealer in iron and steel in an Ohio city, was going from New York to his home, when he picked up in the car a newspaper con­ taining a brief extract from tne essay of the Biddeford school-girl. The lit­ tle slip, which he cut out and put into his pocket-book, was as follows: "A GIRL'S THEORY.--The following is an abstract of an extract from the pen of a young lady graduate of the Biddeford, Me., High School, on the absorbing question of "WhatShall I Do to Live." "The * Lords of crea­ tion ' have been compared to sturdy oaks, and we the vines that cling to and 1>wine around them; but this meta­ phor, if ever pertinent, to use a slang phrase, has long skice • played out. We have all heard of the 63,000 oak- less vines in Massachusetts, to say nothing of the uncounted thousands in Maine, and there are too many oaks that can scarcely support themselves, to say nothing of supporting anything else. * * * I much prefer a life of activity and honest exertion, and I believe the world owes me a liv­ ing if I can earn it, and I expect it on tno other condition." " In November, 1876, three yean aft­ er pocketing the slip, Mr. Packard, who is a widower with three children, wrote to parties in this city, inclosing the above slip, and inquired if such an es­ say was written here; if so, by whomP Was she married? Her age, etc. This letter was answered, the Ohio gentle­ man wrote the young lady, a corre­ spondence ensued which has been kept up until recently, and now it is only a matter of time, and probably short at that, when two more hearts shall beat as one. The other day a nice-looking gentleman of about forty years--wear­ ing the very latest design of a plug-hat, dressed in faultless fashion, ana car­ rying a erenuine i carpet-bag arrived here from the West It was Mr. Packard. He sought out the ob­ ject of his adoration, and is bow pre­ sumably as happy as a big sunflower. Such is life. Truly/1--Clevekmd (Ohio) Leader. $ Brigands of Sicily. THIS beautiful City of Palermo has a way more striking than creditable of recalling herself to the memory of the world. If ever a year has passed away without our hearing any mention of Sicily, we may be fairly sure that the time is ripe for the news of one of those acts of brigandage which here never -seem to pass quite out of fashion. Of late we fancied there had been some im­ provement in this respedt. The last) re­ markable case was in October, 1876, when a banker of Palermo was cap­ tured at a distance of some twenty imilesifrom the city, and, pfter & deten­ tion of a month, more or less, was re­ turned to his family in consideration of a sum of 90,000 lire, or about #16,000. rSince'that time the world has been al­ lowed to forget Sicilian brigands, until ^within the last few days, when the tele­ graph has had to repeat to Europe the headings of the old familiar tale. Each repetition, however, h^ its own pecu­ liar feature. The present versioaa was •briefly as follows: Alessandro Parasi, a young man of a rich Palermitan fami­ ly, was out late one night about two weeks ago. On his way home, just as the clock struck twelve, he was arrest­ ed by four strangers armed with car­ bines. For several minutes he strwg- f led against Jorce and cried aloud, but is resistance brought him nothing, only a blow under the chin with a car- •bine, which was promptly reproved fey another aggressor with the wands, •" Volete ammctzzarloV (do you want to kill him?) This showed the victim that it was a question, not of mur­ der, but of plunder, and he per­ mitted himself to be dragged about thirty paces to a carriage, a landau with one horse, where he was blindfolded and then driven off. In about an hour and a half the carriage stopped, and Parisi was taken into a eave, where he was detained for twelve days while negotiations for his ransom were being carried on. During all this time the brigands did not belie their reputation for certain rough kindliness in their treatment of victims. He was f§d with macaroni, meat and soup, and when he showed a laek of appetite, gentle force was used to make him eat, on the plea that they roust return him tp his home in as good condition as they found him. They even kept him in cigars, and recounted to him the news of each day, including the death of the King and an attempt at brigand­ age which had unfortunately, from their point of view, miscarried. Best of all, they condescended to explain their conduct toward him. There was no lack of the most delicate regard for him, but times were hard, and they said they were obliged, from the neces­ sity of living, to have recourse to people who were known to have money enough and to spare. If their manner of raising Uw wind left {their benefactors no choice between giving and refusing, the fault, they said, Ties with the rich, who show a tenacity anything but high-minded in holding on to their wealth. Finally, after twelve days had elapsed, Parisi was returned to his family, who proved the Value they set upon him by the price paid for his ransom--67,000 lire --or, at the present rate of Italian pa­ per, over $ IS,000.--Palermo Cot. N. Y. Times. Why City Farmers Fall. THE stress of |he time is compelling thousands of families who have hereto­ fore lived in cities to go to the country. Men who have failed in other business take the remnants of their fortunes and betake themselves to the country with the idea that they can make money by farming. Almost invariably this idea has proved delusive. Men who do not succeed in avocations where they have spent their best years and which, it is to be presumed, they understand, will not usually do better in a business about which they know little or nothing. Farming especially is a poor business for beginners. It requires considera­ ble capital, and unless this is carefully watched much is sure to be wasted. Beside, at the best, farming is never a very profitable business. During the last four years only good farmers have made anything more than a living. If we are to have an influx of thousands crowded out or starved out of the cit­ ies the prospect ahead is quite as blue. Farming is a safe business, but even this is only true of experienced farmers, for they are invariably so cautious that they would make any business safe. If the beginner in farming thinks of going ahead at railroad speed, there is just as much likelihood of a smash-up on the farm as on the raik We know very well the answer which will be made to these forebodings It is that the city farmer proposes to do so much better than all his neighbors that his increased expenses will be more than met by still larger profits. They know only the rose-colored side of farming. "Nature works for the hus­ bandman. He plants or sows the seed and the crop is growing while he is sleeping." These and like aphorisms have satisfied them that farming is a simple and easy business. If farmers do not make money, it is because they are so, incorrigibly stupid and old-fogy- ish. With au their doubts about the ability of average farmers, they have none whatever as to theii own. " Wait till we got on the farm, and we will show the natives how good crops are grown!" This is th<? thought ana often the language of men who hope some day to be farmers. We met such a one years ago, who had bought a hundred- acre farm and retired from professional business. " I presume I shall have no trouble in managing the farm. I haVe learned that the secret of success is al­ ways to use plenty of manure on every crop." "Certainly," we replied, a good deal piqued by his affected mas­ tery of the mysteries of farming in one easy lesson. " It is just as easy,' doctor, as your old business. The secret of success in medicine lies in al­ ways giving remedies adapted to cure the disease. It is all simple and easy." The doctor took the hint. He became afterward an excellent farmer, but he learned how difficult it often, and in­ deed always, is to follow his excellent agricultural prescription, "Plenty of manure for every crop." That is ex­ actly what we all want, but how and where shall this enormous amount of fertilizers be obtained? Good practical farming involves a greater amount of thought than sftiy other avocation. The conditions of success are more complex than in any other. It is, least of all, a business for lazy, listless men who dread the drudg­ ery of thinking. Nor is mere acquaint­ ance with the ideas and practices of progressive farming enough. There must be practical experience on the farm and some degree of practical work and attendance bv the owner. Thousands of farmers fail for lack of this, especially men who disdain to learn the ways of common farmers in the conceitea assurance that they can do a great deal better. There can be no greater mistake than this. If we want to improve anything tlie first requisite iis to thoroughly understand its methods and management. No man learns to be a superior farmer until he first learns how to be a good ordinary farmer. Honest Joe Gargery's advice to Pip, when that young gentlemivn as­ pired to be something uncommon, con­ tained a world of shrewd and homely wisdom. " You will never get to be uncommon till you have first got to be common." This is true of almost everything and is especially true of farming. Possibly the later recruits to the ag­ ricultural interest come with humbler notions and more teachable spirit to learn its mysteries. If so, their chance for success will be so mueh the greater. It is best at first to attempt* no innova­ tions on the established eustoms of the neighborhood. Improvements are doubt­ less possible, but let them be suggested by practical experience- This may make progress slow; but it will be sure, and it may save you from mortifying failures. (After you have first become "common*' there may be hope that you will become "uncommon." In the meantime there is consolation in the fact that farmers throughout the coun­ try are" reasonably sure of a good liv­ ing, and that is more than thousands in the cities have been able to make these last few years. It will require some work, but this is only fulfilling the original decree passed upon man that in the sweat of his brow he should earn his daily bread. Trying to evade this decree is one chief cause of hard times. When we see a return to habits of industry, the revival of all honest business cannot be long post­ poned.-- Rural New Yorker. --A learned doctor, who went out for a day18 recreation,on the ice, talkfed in a masterly way about the "fcience of skating. He buckled the irons on his shoes, and, after a few indescribable movements, found himself gliding along on his vertebral column and the back of his head. " Ah." he sighed, when he recovered his equilibrium, " I am like gome religious people--up in theory ^nd down in .practice. USEFUL AND SUG3ESTITB. Almond Cake.--Two cups of sugar, one-half cup of butter, three of flour, three-quarters of a cup of milk, three teaspoonfuls of baking powder, whites of six eggs; bake in layers, and sprinkle almonds over the tops. PRUNE PIE.--Take one pound of prunes, wash them, stew them soft in clean water and remove the pits, then have your crust ready and spread the prunes quite thin; aud one cup of sugar and two tablespoonfuls of boiled cider to a pie. This is enough to make two pies. You will find them very nioe. SCRAPPLE.--Take pieces of fresh pork, more of lean tnan fat. boil until tender; taice it out of the broth and after chopping it fine put it back into the broth, ana fill up with plenty of water; put in salt ana pepper, and stir in com meal the same as for mush; turn out in pans and slice and fry. It will be fat enough to fry itself. A FEMALE friend, just married and wanting to start with a flower-garden, inquires of us what to sow, Set the reliables, such as asters, stocks, bal­ sams, petunias, etc. Any person can raise these, and they will not disap­ point any one. In the first efforts at a flower garden, never' be reaching after the wonderful things which re­ quire great care and scientific skill.-- State, HeqisUr. CORN MEAL CAKES.--One pint of rieh milk heated, a piece of butter the size of a walnut, eight lar^e tablespoonfuls of sifted corn-meal, three large table­ spoonfuls of flour, three eggs, well beaten, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one pint cold milk. Put the butter in­ to the first pint of milk and heat; have ready in a pan the meal and flour, well mixed; then pour into it the scald­ ing milk, and stir it well--then add the pint of cold milk, eggs and salt, and bake on a griddle. THE following bits of agricultural wisdom are taken from the Iowa Slate Register: The President of the Northwestern Iowa Agricultural Society says: You may do without a feather bed, but, I re­ peat, do not do without an asparagus bed. Fat little Berkshire pigs are pretty, and nobby, short-horn steers are the delight of the eye. But no pigs are prettv on the door-step, nor are any breed of cattle a pleasure to the sight in the orchard. If there be any leisure time, recollect corn will stand manure to the fullest extent. It not only pays in amount of yield, but it ripens much earlier. A doubting farmer is of such little use, it is a waste of the raw material to take dust to make such a man. Lettuce can be rapidly and profitably sown in open garden any time in March when the ground is ni tfrozen. Farmers complain of many wrongs, but they could right them if they would make use of the brain force at their command. A farmer should learn lessons from the foibles and failures of others, as well as by their wisdom and triumphs. There are lessons in every passing min­ ute or passing zephyr. How happy is the farmer's life when he sows his seed in hope, and gathers his sheaves in thankfulness. Balky Men Make Balky Horses. FEW things are more provoking or more disgraceful to a driver than a balky horse, or more amusing to the spectators. Balking is so manifestly the fault of the handling that the horse has had, that the driver is outside of sympathy for the awkward situation in which he is seen in holding the reins at the horse end. A horse delights in using his strength, and it should oe the aim of the driver to control him without exciting his opposition. Some men will get more work out of a horse than others, because, under their management, he is allowed to put his whole strength into his work, and he is not irritated and harassed, and perhaps exasperated, by jerking and twitching of tne lines, loud shouting, and frequent snapping of and perhaps cuts from the tvhip; instead of this mode of treatment, he is encouraged to do his work v.ith cheerfulness, and freedom of motion is encouraged; whip, blinders and checks are dis­ pensed with. No more appropriate names could be applied to the last two articles of horse-gear than the ones they have; one is a check to am­ bition, and the other is blinding to the eyes. A whip is a source of needless irrita­ tion to a horse; he seldom needs it un­ less he is lazy, and if he is lazy, he had better be seen to, for laziness and health seldom go together. It is quite possible for a horse to be so free from restraint that his work will be a pleas­ ant exercise. A restful state of mind puts the body in good working condition in beast as well as in man. There is a kind of knack in conduct­ ing the strength and energy ot a horse along the channel which you would have it flow, and that, too, so smoothly that there will be no friction; it is usu­ ally the stream which flows quietly which goes with the most force. Care should be taken to not give a horse a load too great for his strength, for fear that he will be discouraged, or, being balked by his load, will balk against his master. One manner of starting for teamsters is first a cut with the whip, and the whip is sure to be a pretty severe one; then a "yank" on the lines; next comes a course*of shouting. This style of treatment is kept up all day long on an animal of flesh and blood, and o£ nerves often-more sensitive than his driver. This is the way that the temper of many a good horse is spoiled; his an­ tagonism is aroused, and, instead of being docile and submissive, he be­ comes irritable and resentful. Occasionally we see on our streets actual fights between teamsters and their horses; sometimes there is enough strength wasted to do half a day's work. Verily it would seem to be for the interest of horse-owners to employ only such men for teamsters as under­ stand their business.--Cor. Detroit Post and Tribune. --Fond mother: "What would you do without a mother, TolnF1 Tom: "Do as I liked, ma." --The threadbare story about a cloth­ ing-dealer who cautioned a customer against mentioning the terms of his bargain to the dealer's partner, as the latter was subject to the heart disease, is suggested by an accident occurring recently in Connecticut. Samuel Cal­ houn, a cigar-manufacturer, aged forty- five, when offered an unusually- low price for his tobacco, suddenly Ml in­ sensible, and has since died from the shock. --"Charles, my dear," said hislov« ing wife, " I thought you said that the doao bird was extinct." " So it is, pet," he replied. " Well, but Charley, some one sent in a bill to you to-day, and it says: To one julep, do do. To three smashes, do do. To twenty braces, do do. Charley, pleas* don't buy any do­ dos; they must be horrid things."

What think you would be the result If ths earth should stop spinning around the sunt Were you ever near a large and intricate ma­ chine wberi one of its wheels became clogged or broken--near enough to hear the {^rating, jarring clash, the sudden, deafening crashl Astronomers assure us that precisely similar effects, only on an inconceivably grander Bcale, would be produced if our earth--one of the wheels in the universe-machine--should suddenly cease its revolutions. In other words, there would be a general clash and crash ot satellites, planets and systems. What, we terra financial crises are due to similar causes. One of the wheels in the finance-machine becomes clogged, perhaps shattered. The terrible Wall-street " crash" which follows is com­ municated to every part of the financial mech­ anism of tne country. But analogies do not stop here. There is that other mechanism, the most intricate of all--sometimes called an or­ ganism because it generates its own forces-- the human machine. When one of its mem­ bers fails to perform its otfice, the whole sys­ tem is thrown into disorder. Members before considered unassailable, break down under the unnatural pressure. The shock comes, and utter prostration is the result. Reparation can only be effected by the restoration of the im­ paired parts ami the readjustment of its lev­ ers--the physical forces. There is one part of the machine more liable to disorder than any other--the liver--the great balance-wheel ot the machine. The liver being the great depurating or blood-cleansing organ of the system, set it. at work and the foul corruptions which gender in the blood, and rot out, as it were, the ma­ chinery of life, are gradually expelled from the system. For this purpose Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, used daily, and Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, taken in very small doses, arc pre-eminently the arti­ cles needed.
