Intelligence Items. The Sultan of Turkey lives surrounded by 5,000 soldiers. A London Truth erflie mistrusts a man who has ill-shaped ears. When the wool is pulled over his eyes a man is usually fleeced afterward. Where a school is mainly occupied with whipping there is very little time for teaching. English conservatives say that John Bright wins Manchester votes with the honey of his voice. Petroleum V. Nasby does not believe that the ex-President can be either nominated or elected. The Chicago Tribune thinks that the one who invented sleep did not furnish babies with enough of it. Richmond, Va., has forty-five churches, which are attended by one in sixteen of the population. There are fifty colored type-setters in the United States, nearly all of whom find employment in the South. The excitement over the finding of large nuggets of gold in the mines of Nacoochee, Ga., is still increasing? A Detroit dentist gave a free tooth-pulling, and pulled 229 teeth, using 700 gallons of gas to quiet the patients. At Fort Worth, Tex., while a well was being drilled at a depth of 213 feet, the engineer found what is believed to be gold. America now has nearly a hundred varieties of American grapes under cultivation, and more than eight hundred varieties of pears. A man who was bitten by a dog at Bowdoin, Mass., was superstitions enough to dress the wound with the hair of the brute that bit him. French chemists claim that whisky contains no nitrogen, which is probably the cause of men going around afterward looking for the nitrogen. While Gen. Grant was in the parlors of a hotel at Vicksburg he was called upon by William Scott, with a bill for $10 for services rendered as a cook in 1863. Mr. Yung Wing, now acting Chinese Minister at Washington, is quoted as saying that there are three Chinamen Fashionable Stationery. Irish linen paper is no longer exclusively fashionable, smooth and rough are equally popular; tillered and cream are the stylish tints. The sheets are of the standard commercial note and letter size, and unruled—even the French water lines are sometimes omitted; envelopes are nearly square. A fashionable fancy is to have the note-paper decorated in various ways. Water-color sketches, monograms, etchings, crests, coat of arms, ciphers, fancy initials and quaint designs, are used in endless variety of form and color. An odd conceit is to take a motto or device, using it as a seal and motto on all note-paper, and oftentimes expressing great individuality. Mary Queen of Scots selected on the death of Francis II. the licorice plant, the root of which is sweet, while all above ground is bitter, which typifying herself and her husband, was a pretty idea; her better-half being buried, herself being above ground in bitterness. The motto accompanying it was Dulce meum terra reguli—the earth covers my sweet one. Wedding invitations are engraved in plain English script on a sheet of white note paper. They are now generally issued with the names of the bride and groom on the note, instead of on separate cards. A novelty in wedding cards in England consists of a double card, and is edged with a pale blue and silver border, with the word "Marriage" in the center of the first page in silver. The second page has the words "At Home," after such a date as the wedded pair may decide upon, together with their address. The third page is appropriated to their names, the date of marriage, and the church and the minister by whom and where the ceremony is performed, the fourth page being reserved for the complimentary expression." With our kind regards," to which their initials are appended. For receptions and parties, the invitations are generally printed on heavy, square cards. Invitations to parties, where outdoor sports are to be indulged in, should bear a coat of arms formed of bows, arrows, targets, croquet-mallets, cars and other implements of like description. For yachting parties the invitation should bear the yacht flag and signal crossed. The Pause in During the last ten been a marked increase of professional readers suggest to an unobserver we are a nation of good whom the best have been light the public ear. Tion is not supported spite of schools of common schools, too find in private life anily group. Perhaps logues translated for from the French, most cause of bad reading. A young man presides day in the office of M that he wished to elocution, and the formation ensued: "You wish to taking?" "Yes, sir." "Have you practice?" "Yes, sir; I have scenes in Shakespeare" "Before people?" "Yes." "Successfully?" "Yes." Well, take this bable of Oak and The pupil began said to a reed—" That will do how to read." I suppose not, take lessons. But from one line—" Well, begin again The young man roak one day said tae I saw it before. But—" But, Yes. Does a verb, or to a subsist here adverbial, so to 'said.'

They do A man who was bitten by a dog at Bowdoin, Mass., was superstitious enough to dress the wound with the hair of the brute that bit him. French chemists claim that whisky contains no nitrogen, which is probably the cause of men going around afterward looking for the nitrogen. While Gen. Grant was in the parlors of a hotel at Vicksburg he was called upon by William Scott, with a bill for $10 for services rendered as a cook in 1863. Mr. Yung Wing, now acting Chinese Minister at Washington, is quoted as saying that there are three Chinamen leaving this country to one who is coming. There is on exhibition at Nashville a photograph of Daniel Mayberry, of Rutherford county, Tenn., who is 105 years old, and probably the oldest man in the State. Mr. Gough says that when he told 6,000 people in Exeter Hall of Mrs. Hayes' great moral courage in refusing to offer wine to her guests at the White House, they instantly gave 'three cheers. During the winter the ice pinnacle under the Yosemite fall became a tower over 600 feet in height, but latterly it has been slowly decreasing, because of the change of temperature in the water falling upon it. A body, identified as that of Mrs. Nicoll, wife of a baker in Dundee, was yesterday recovered in the Tay. Seventeen bodies of the passengers by the lost train are still missing.—Glasgow Star, April 16. This is the year for the reappearance of the seventeen year locusts. The last visitation was in 1863, and if the theory of their appearance at regular intervals of seventeen-years is correct, they may be looked for in the coming month. The Washington University, at St. Louis, Mo., has received in its history gifts exceeding $1,000,000, besides more than $100,000 received for scholarship endowments. The largest amount credited to one name is $203,000, and the next is $179,500. It seems difficult to account for so small a creature as a bird making tones as loud, in singing, as an animal 1,000 times its size. But it has been discovered that in birds the lungs have several openings, communicating with corresponding air bags, or cells, which fill the whole cavity of the body from the neck downward, and into which the air passes and repasses. Fashion Notes. Pearls are superseding diamonds. The latest in London is to have music during dinner. White pansies make very pretty flower-knots for the neck. A pretty lace pin is a well-curb, with the bucket pendant from it. One of the new shades of brown is exactly the color of old copper. Turkey-red and yellow are the favorite colored laces used for dress trimming. Necklaces of amber beads like those of antique Roman fashion are worn... Pearls are superseding diamonds. The latest in London is to have music during dinner. White pansies make very pretty flower-knots for the neck. A pretty lace pin is a well-curb, with the bucket pendant from it. One of the new shades of brown is exactly the color of old copper. Turkey-red and yellow are the favorite colored laces used for dress trimming. Necklaces of amber beads like those of antique Roman fashion are worn again. It is the fashion in Washington to give parties exclusively to either ladies or gentlemen. Long, slender initials are the most fashionable for embroidery on lingerie and handkerchiefs. Naples and Geneva are said to furnish the most artistic work in coral, of which a pale, pinkish shade is very fashionable. The indoor costumes of Parisian ladies is of white flannel with a jacket of plaid silk plush, in every color of the rainbow. Young Japanese girls gild their lips, a custom which has not yet been adopted here, in the graze for Japanese fashions. An evidence of vulgar taste is the mottoes and monograms now so much used on bags, fans, parasols and handkerchiefs. Squares of silk India mull, with a vine of colored flowers, and plaitings of Languedoc lace are among the new designs for neckwear. Punch and Judy form the design for a majolica lemonade jug. The dog, the bailiff and the baby ornament the side of this funny bit of ware. Among the late importation of dress goods are the red-ground oil calices, with all the old-fashioned figures that used to be seen forty years ago. New fans have brown leaves or twigs laying along the upper edge, with tiny birds flying toward them, or little blossoms apparently falling from them. Embroidered brackets are more to the fashionable taste than carved ones. The bracket is covered with plain velvet, with a band of embroidered silk let into it in front. Little butterfly head-dresses of terry velvet, softened by lace, and also made of gold or silver lace, are very pretty things for ladies who indulge in elaborate head-dressing. A New Use for the Telephone.—It has been found that the telephone is a great convenience when connecting the office and the residence of young married couples. The cooing can be kept up all day-long without interfering much with business, and later on the husband can be hourly informed of the condition of the baby's health, and all his cunning antics can be described in detail—but what a terrible strain it must be to the instrument? Postmaster General Key is good-natured and stout. The Pause in Reading. During the last ten years there has been a marked increase in the number of professional readers. The fast might suggest to an unobserving person that we are a nation of good readers, from whom the best have been called to light the public ear. But the suggestion is not supported by the facts. In spite of schools of elocution and of common schools, too, it is difficult to find in private life a person who can read so as to please and instruct a family group. Perhaps the following dialogues translated for the Companion, from the French, may point out one cause of bad reading: A young man presented himself one day in the office of Mr. Samson, saying that he wished to be instructed in elocution, and the following conversation ensued: "You wish to take lessons in reading?" "Yes, sir." "Have you practiced reading aloud?" "Yes, sir; I have read many of the scenes in Shakespeare." "Before people?" "Yes." "Successfully?" "Yes." Well, take this book and read the table of the Oak and the Reed." The pupil began. "An oak one day, said to a reed—" "That will do. You do not know how to read." "I suppose not, as I came here to take lessons. But how can you judge from one line—" "Well, begin again." The young man read as before, "An oak one day said to a reed." "I saw it before. You cannot read." But— But, Yes. Does an adverb belong to a verb, or to a substantive? 'One day' is here adverbial, and should be joined to 'said.' You should read, "An oak (comma) one day said to a reed." "That is true!" exclaimed the young man, somewhat taken by surprise. "One of the most important points in reading is punctuation." "How! punctuation in reading, how can that be?" By the pause. The pause is to the ear what the punctuation marks are to the eye. They do not, however, always Consumption Oarad. An old physician, retired from practice, having had placed in his hands by an East India missionary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for the speedy and permanent cure for Consumption. Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma, and all Throat and Lung Affections, also a positive and radical cure for General Debility and all Nervous Complaints, after having tested its wonderful curative powers in thousands of cases, has felt it his duty to make it known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive and a desire to relieve human suffering, I will send free of charge to all who desire it, this recipe, in German, French, or English, with full directions for preparing and using. Sent by mail by addressing with stamp, naming this paper, W. W. Sherak, 149 Powder Block, Rochester, N.Y. Serious swellings, carbuncles and bolls, blotches, pimples and eraptions, enlarged glands, internal soreness, torpid liver, and general clogged condition of the system, all yield in due time to nature's sov-reign remedy—Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Sold around the world by druggists and chemists. Foreign trade supplied from London branch. World's Dispensary Medical Association, Proprietors, Buffalo, N.Y., R. V. Pierce, M. D., President. WEST BLUE MOUND, Wis., March 8th, 1830. Dr. R. V. Pierce: Dear Sir—Having suffered many weary months from liver complaint without relief, I was last summer induced to try your Golden Medical Discovery and Pellets. At the time I was scarcely able to walk. Owing to their effect I commenced to improve rapidly and am now as well and strong as ever. I thank you from the depths of my heart for the good they have done me and wish you all success. Yours truly, MRS. S. STAGNER. Quick Cure for Poison Oak. A few months ago an eminent physician who had tested the remarkable curative qualities of Phosphate Soap for various skin diseases expressed his belief that it would be an excellent remedy for Poison Oak. It was accordingly tested for this purpose. A boy had been so badly poisoned as to be confined to his bed for a week, and had his hands all covered with sores when he began to use Phosphate Soap. Within twenty-four hours he was greatly relieved and in a few days was entirely cured of Poison Oak by the use of Phosphate Soap. It was at the opera house. The performance was about to begin, when one of the two strangers looked all around and said: "Bill, where is the dress circle?" Bill glanced up toward the third gallery and replied: "I reckon it is up youder. I see a fellow taking off his coat." Galveston News. Prejudice Kills. Eleven years our daughter suffered on a "I saw it before. You cannot read." "But—" "But, Yes. Does an adverb belong to a verb, or to a substantive? 'One day is here adverbial, and should be joined to said.' You should read," "An oak (comma) one day said to a reed." "That is true! exclaimed the young man, somewhat taken by surprise." "One of the most important points in reading is punctuation." "How! punctuation in reading, how can that be?" "By the pause. The pause is to the ear what the punctuation marks are to the eye. They do not, however, always coincide. The pause is also sometimes lighter than such as would be indicated by a comma, but by it a sentence is so arranged that the words which belong to each other are brought together, and those which do not belong to each other are separated." "One of the first elements of good reading, therefore, is attention to the pause. When due attention is not given to this, the emphasis is liable to be misplaced and the sense obscured." Disappearance of Fishes. Disappearances of sea fish from their long-time homes occur frequently, and for reasons unknown to man. The herring have left the coast of Sweden, where once they were numerous, and the big-eyed or chub mackerel, which thirty years ago was common on our coasts, is now rare that Professor Baird has been unable to obtain it for his collection, although he has offered $25 for a single specimen. Whether the merits of this fish have suddenly become known to marine epicures, or whether the chub mackerel has found a deep-sea larder which is better stored than his old one was, must, for the present, be matter for conjecture. Perhaps tunny-fish, sharks, perpoises, dogfish and other lordly fellows with discriminating appetites, might throw some light upon the subject if they could be interviewed. At one time the tunny had driven the cod entirely away from the vicinity of Block Island, but the tunny himself having become attractive to oil men, purveyors to manufacturers of fish guano, the cod hurried back to the family homestead. Professor Baird believes that the demand for tunnies, dogfish, sharks, etc., by the factories which will turn them into oils and manures, will have the effect of increasing the number of food fishes by lessening that of their enemies. "Grand, gloomy, and peculiar," like other great slaughterers, these predaceous fish also resemble their human prototypes in being comparatively few in number, and in keeping themselves prominently before the eyes of those who are eager to destroy them. Sweeping Them Out.—"How do I get rid of gossipics?" asked Mrs. Hopkins, with a twinkle of amusement in her bright eyes. "Easily enough. I found out the way long ago. The first thing I did was to get the brush and dust-pan, and lay them handy against my neighbor came in. Soon in pops Mrs. Smith. 'Mrs. Smith,' says I, 'you won't mind my doing a bit of dusting, will you, while you're talking?' Of course she couldn't but be agreeable. Prejudice Kills. Eleven years our daughter suffered on a bed of misery under the care of several of the best (and some of the worst) physicians, who gave her disease various names but no relief, and now she is restored to us in good health by as simple a remedy as Hop Bitters, that we had pooled at for two years, before using it. We earnestly hope and pray that no one else will let their sick suffer as we did, on account of prejudice against so good a medicine as Hop Bitters.—The Parents. Dyspepsia Oured.

"Easily enough. I found out the way long ago. The first thing I did was to get the brush and dust-pan, and lay them handy 'gainst my neighbor came in. Soon in pops Mrs. Smith. 'Mrs. Smith,' says I, 'you won't mind my doing a bit of dusting, will you, while you're talking?' Of course she couldn't but be agreeable to that. So down on my knees I goes, and begins to dust with all my might. But somehow it was very curious that the dust allus would gather just under the chair my neighbor was a-sittin' on. She'd shift and shift, but I'd allus be arter her with my old dust-pan; and the dust 'ud get up in her nose, and she'd begin to sneeze—and soon she'd say, 'Well, I think—ketcher!—I'll call in another day, as I see you are—ketcher!—busy.' And so, in less than a week, I had dusted all my neighbors out of the house." Wise Mrs. Hopkins! THE OLEANDER. — This beautiful plant, when under proper culture, is truly a gem among flowers. The best way to root cuttings is in a bottle of rain water set in the window. The cuttings should be no deeper in the water than half way up to the second joint, and when the rootlets get to be half an inch long, carefully pot in rich, sandy loam. After the plant blooms, cut back to within a foot or fifteen inches of the ground, when three branches will come out; let them grow until it again blooms; after which cut them all back about six inches from the main stalk, and every time it blooms repeat cutting back, and in a few years a very beautiful plant will be the result; with proper care it will grow more beautiful with age. NEVER TO BLAKE. — Some people are never to be blamed for anything, in their own opinion. They are not the most agreeable people in the world, for the simple reason that, no matter what they do, they always succeed in making you feel that you are the sneak-after all. "That man," said one of these folks, "has been scolding me for an hour, and has told me at least forty times that I stole a dollar from him, when the simple truth is I only stole fifty cents. I don't want to be blamed for what I don't do." DIPMTHERIA and all affections of the throat. All should keep it entirely on hand, so it is a sure cure for this terrible disease.

THE ORIGIN KIDNEY TEA, kind Nature's own round—her "last best gift to man." A plant which grows in mountain fastnesses, seldom trodden by human foot.

Others seek relief by the use of various patent medicines, when, if they do not aggravate the disease it does not leasen it. THE ORIGIN KIDNEY TEA is a strictly vegetable production, and will not injure the smallest child in the most delicate woman, but will be in the back and kidneys, non-retention of urine, and all complaints arising from a diseased or debilitated state of the kidneys or urinary organs of either sex.

I am of the opinion that it is the mildest and most perfect detergent that can be used, either for cleansing the skin and leaving it soft and healthy, or for removing the fetor and corroding influences of sores and ulcerations. I should be sorry to be without it in shaving my face or making my toilet, to say nothing of my good opinion of its remedial qualities. A.J. SPENCER, M.D. Gentlemen: I received a package of your soap (Phosphate Soap) and it gives me great pleasure to testify as to its su- Daily Stock Report PUBLISHED BY THE Stock Report Publishing Company W.M.

Gentlemen: I received a package of your soap (Phosphate Soap) and it gives me great pleasure to testify as to its superior excellence. As a toilet soap I have never seen anything to surpass it. It also possesses superior remedial qualities. I have used it in two cases of obstinate skin disease, one of intolerable itching, Pruritus, the other an Eczema. In both great relief was obtained. Its emollient properties are remarkable. Respectfully, W.A. DOUGLASS, M.D. 126 O'Farrell St. To the Standard Soap Company. SAN FRANCISCO, July 19, 1879. Standard Soap Co.—Gents: I have tried your PHOSPHATE SOAP, and have no hesitation in saying that it is the best toilet soap ever used. My wife has used it and is of the same opinion. I have paid as high as fifty cents per cake for an article in every respect inferior to what you sell for twenty-five cents. HENEY H. LYNCH, 515 Haight street. OAKLAND, CAL., Aug. 1, 1879. Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: We have been giving your PHOSPHATE SOAP a pretty fair trial, and we like it the best of any soap for toilet use that we have found on this Coast. We have little doubt that it will meet with universal favor. MRS. R. R. JOHNSTON, 1016 Kirkham street. The genuine merits of PHOSPHATE SOAP and persistent advertising will force every druggist, groceryman and general dealer to order it by the gross sooner or later. Ask for it in every store. The retail price is 25 cents per cake. We wish to sell it only at wholesale, but in case you cannot find it we will send a nice box of three cakes by mail, postage paid, on receipt of 88 cents in stamps. STANDARD SOAP CO...
