GENTLEMEN -.—Although a stranger to you, ar*'d my testimonial entirely unnecessary, as it certainly is unsolicited, yet I take great pleasure in testifying to the excellence of your IVORY SOAP, and thanking you for putting it on the market at so low a price. It has entirely supplanted the use of Castile and other fine soaps in my household for several years past, being i n n o way inferior and fromfiftyto seventy-five per cent, more economical. A good test I find for the purity o f a soap is to try it with a brush for cleansing the teeth, and the taste of the Ivory so used is perfectly sweet and clean. Very Respectfully Yours, . S. BAKER, M.D. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be "justas good as the 'Ivory';" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and Insist upon getting it. Copyright 1886, by Procter & Gamble. 1 FOR i GENTLEMEN. Best in the world.

I was at Wai»reii soon after the fa- mous Cherry Grove disaster. For the benefit of those who know nothing of the petroleum country of Pennsylvania, I may say that Cherjy Grove was the name of one of those mushroom dis- tricts which became densely populated in a day and deserted the next. That is to say, an enterprising man would go into the heart of the woods and sink a "mystery" well; he would "strike oil," mayhap a "gusher of several thousand barrels a day—and instantly the woods would resound with the blows of the axe, and the hills would bristle with gaunt derricks. For a time the feverish life of the place would attract multitudes of speculat- ors, gamblers and evil women; even a church might spring up in a night. Then, suddenly, the excitement would flicker—a succession of wells might prove 4, dry-holes" or "dusters," a new territory might be opened—and speedily die out. The multitude would vanish, the roar of the torpedo and the puff of the engine no more be heard in the land. This, in brief, was the history of many mushroom dis- tricts in the oil regions; it was the story of the Cherry Grove disaster in 1880. Two men, Davis and Murphy, had made about a million apiece out of the mystery well, "QiQ," which opened up the new territory; I do not know how many hundred men and women were ruined by the crack. Every body speculated in oil certificates; I met a clergyman who had abandoued his profession td do so; oil scouts were college graduates. To return to my story. When I reached Warren, where the nearest oil exchange was established, the excite- ment in the Cherry Grove country had largely subsided. But the stranger would not have believed it from the pandemonium of the exchange, I sat outside the railing and watched the howling fiends within, one of them in particular, a long, thin man, with sandy hair and mustache, <an appaling moutb and a voice of infinite reach. At recess I made his acquaintance, through a common friend, with whom we both lunched. Said my friend: " 'Sandy,' here, is the pride of the exchange. He has made more money in less time than any ©if us, and lost it sooner. Two hundred and fifty thou- sand in three hours, wasn't it, Sandy?" This elicited, after some more press- ure and wine, the story I wanted to hear, which, as *<Sandy" modestly re- lated it, ran somewhat in this wise: "I thought I had .a good thing. Oil was then selling at very near a dollar and a quarter—call It a dollar and a quarter. There wasn't any Balltown. I had the best se@ut in the country, bar Si Hughes—eeuld put his ear to the ground a hundred yards off, and tell the flow of a well to the barrel. One day he strolled into 'change, winked to me, and we went over to a windpw together, and sat down. •Look natural aa you can,' he said, 'I'm going to fiStump you.' 'Go ahead,' said L t *'DoaTc , $ M mysterrp'' is a "duster! "* "I quivered all-over, of course, for it was terrible big news. The market had been unsteady.all day, expecting to hear big things of Doak's well, and the new territory at'd open up. But I kept my face ,and feet, lit a cigar, let on to yawn, ,and <made my plans. In about a quarter <of an hour I got to work. First I went at it slow and cau-: tious, as if l[ was uncertain, and the, boys guyed true, and sold all I wanted! to buy, and they thought I was trying: a bluff gaaaae, and dared me to buy in big blocks. Then I went in tooth and; nail, and bought all they offered me, .till they began t© suspect me, and won-' der what was up. About two o'clock I let the news leak out Then it came over the wire: * *• 'Doak's mystery is a fluster!' "Such a .crowd of crazy men you never saw. They lost their heads and fought the price up to $1.30; then I sold. I was 'in' abeut $250,000. "Of eourse, I wanted to do the square thing. I telegraphed to all the near- est towns, and ordered down all the champagne they could sparer I went about myself in Wan«n and bought up every bottle 1 could find for sale, and invited the whole exchange that night to a big dinner- We had a great time. They were all good fellows, ;and I don't believe one of them was mad at me for my luck. Before nine o'clock I was soaked with. wine. m "Just about that hour, or a little be- fore, in came Doak himself. ' Well, we *rept over him. and bathed him in champagne, and he took it like a little man. I made a place for him beside roe, and told him how I had done it. "•It's lucky,' says he, laughing like a good fellow, 'that you cleared your- self by six o'clock.' 'Why?" says L •Well,' he says, "it's a falling market, I believe. If my well was dry, ail right; but there's oil out there sure as sin, and there's oil all around. You sold in good time.' "'Not a bit of it, Doakey.' says L 'You're all wrong. I'd do it again, and •How much wouldfyoirtakeP *"* 'All you want to seU.!^ / if v Til see you,' said he; shook hands. "He took out a pencil and wrote the agreement, and, J signed it; and then we knocked the neck off another bottle, and I don't remember the rest of the night I swam in wine." "But about a half-dozen fellows dragged me out of bed in the morning. •It's all up with you,' they said. 'Doak exploded his mystery, and it's a "gusher."' Sure enough it was, and the cuss knew it when he loaded me. The market dropped plumb from $1.30 to $1.22." Sandy, still smiling, sank back in his chair, and smoked in silence. "He hasn't told you," said my friend, "that if he had wished to he could have ignored the trick, as it is a rule of the exchange that all transac- tions made out of the regular session may be declared off. But Sandy wouldn't take advantage of the provis- ion, So he lost his $250,000, and owed the market about $50,000 more." "I've nearly paid that off," sighed Sandy.-—Once a Week. PHONOGRAPHIC DOLLS. They Sine "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little &tar, " and Other Pretty Tunes. Fifty years ago the little girl played with a rag doll. Then came wooden dolls, then wax and china, and finally papier mache and bisque. Then the dolls were taught to creep, and even walk, and when they progressed so far as to say "mamma" and "papa" in squeaky voices, the little girl no doubt thought the acme of doll culture had been reached. But within a very short time dolls have been produced that actually recite "Mother. Goose's Mel- odies," and other standard poems, such as "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star." How is the wonderful effect pro- duced? Easily enough, by means of the phonograph. The dolls are about one foot in height. The phonographic apparatus, occupying the body of the doll, has a space perhaps two or three inches in diameter in which to operate. The dolls are brought from Europe, but the talking machinery is manufactured and inserted here. As each doll reaches the proper a£& it is turned over to a governess spe- cially employed to train its phono- graphic ideas how to shoot. This lady gives the most careful, attention to the education of the dolls: She recognizes the value of individual training, im- parts separate instruction to every doll. Knowing the great imitative power of little folks, she is particular to modulate her voice to just the pitch which she wishes theirs to as- sume. The doll pupils are required to re- peat her words until every accent and inflection is satisfactory. The dolls have such wonderful memories that not only do they repeat their lessons with accuracy, but they everr "hold the voice." .„ ...,!.. This faculty of theirs compeled the employment of-lady instructors. The deep, gruff voice of a man reciting "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" had rather a gruesome effect when issuing from the lips of a rosy-cheeked little dollie. Their voices are strong and their ar- ticulation so clear that their conversa- tion can be heard up one flight of stairs with distinctness—somewhat more nerfeetly, in fact, than when close by, as there is a little z-r-r-r of the machinery which is not noticed at a distance.—Golden Days.

Kindly thought and labor for others dependent and beloved —the living out of and not in the petty round of personal and individual inter- ests—keep heart and energies fresh. —One who wants to be the object of good feelings on the part of others must be the subject of such feelings toward them. This is what Solomon meant when he said that "he that hath friends must show himself friendly." A cross, ill-tempered and sour-minded man, who really loves nobody, is too hateful and odious to invite the affection of others. —N. Y.

" —A Greek, the wisest man of his day, once cried with honest fervor: "What a heap of things there are that I do not want!" How lucky we sjaould be if we could get out of discontent and envy into his habit of loving the good we have, but fearing to have all the good we desire! Well, we think, we really ought to have such and such a thing. If that is so, we shall have it, but we will not whimper meanwhile.

The superstition, prejudice, call i* What you will, is as strong as ever and ilives in quarters where one would least expect to find it None of our foig ocean steamers leave the port of New York Friday. It would be con- sidered unlueky by every one of the •crew from the captain to the cabin- boy. The Cunard Line steamers sail from here Saturdays and from Boston '' Thursdays, the White Star Wednes- days, the Anchor Line Wednesdays and Saturdays, the French Line Satur- days, the'German Lloyd Saturdaysand Wednesdays, the Hamburg Line Thaars- •days, the Pacific Mail Mondays and Thursdays, .and so on all down the list of the big ^companies that ferry itihe Atlantic. Hot a vessel belonging to iany of them is allowed to commence & voyage on aPriday. Speakingv©f Friday being an unlucky aflay, I last-.evening asked Commander ^Rockwell, who commands the United States steamship Yantic, if it as con- sidered unlucky in the navy to sail on •a .Friday. '^Certainty it is." was the response. "Very few officers want to saiil on a Friday if it can be avoided. I ana certain (that I do not. Why, the first time I ever put to sea on a Friday we were near having one of the great- est tragedies that the United States navgr has experienced in fifty years. It was while I WAS serving on the Oneida that we left Norfolk, Va. t that day, and we were hardly at sea when a fire broke out close to the magazine, and, before it could be extinguished, the powder bans were so hot that we ex- pected the ship to blow up at almost any moment. No, sir, if I can get ready I will leave the navy yard April 1, but if I am ready a Friday I shall certainly wait over until Saturday." Captain Rockwell is a typical officer of the school which is giving us our new navy. When men of his stamp think Friday unlucky, is it a wonder that Poor Jack should fight, shy of the unlucky day?—N.

Prince Waldemar and Princess Marie are good skaters, and one afternoon when, after a long run across the ice, they sat down to rest, they noticed a little boy who was vainly trying to put his skates on. On seeing the royal couple he took off his hat and said: "Oh, dear Princess Marie, can you not help me to put my skates on?" The royal lady smiled, knelt down on the ice and firmly fastened the straps around the boy's ankles. "•»•» <m W. L. THOMAS and J. C. Hunt, of Lowndes County, Ga., have deer farms.

It is easy to recall to mind his familiar figure as be sits, during "winter evenings in his favorite comer. In his easy chair, with pipe in hand and his silver-rimmed "specs" pushed back until they find a soft resting place on his beloved snow-white head, with eyes spark- ling and his face beaming with pleasure as he calls back old memories of days long gone by, he is likely to talk something after this fashion: "It's a long time since I was a boy. Ah, but that was many .years ago. Sixty long years have gone and the good Lord knows they were short/enough. I was then sprsice and pert;as any chap thereabouts. MOh, bttt we boys were boys!

G E N T L E M E N -.—Although a stranger to you, ar*'d m y testimonial entirely unnecessary, as it certainly is unsolicited, y e t I take great pleasure in testifying to the excellence o f your IVORY S O A P , and thanking you for putting it o n the market at so low a price.

It has entirely supplanted the use of Castile and other fine soaps in m y household for several years past, being in n o way inferior and from fifty to seventy-five per cent, more economical.

A good test I find for the purity o f a soap is to try it with a brush for cleansing the teeth, and the taste of the Ivory so used is perfectly sweet and clean.

Very Respectfully Yours, . S. B A K E R , M . D .

A W O R D O F W A R N I N G .

There are many white soaps, each represented to be "justas good as the 'Ivory';" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and Insist upon getting it. •

An E p i s o d e of t h e Oil R e g i o n s i n 1 8 8 0 . ,-• k. ,^,;;^a . .

I was at Wai»reii soon after the fa­mous Cherry Grove disaster. For the benefit of those who know nothing of the petroleum country of Pennsylvania, I may say that Cherjy Grove was the name of one of those mushroom dis­tricts which became densely populated in a day and deserted the next. That is to say, an enterprising man would go into the heart of the woods and sink a "mystery" well; he would "strike oil," mayhap a "gusher of several thousand barrels a day—and instantly the woods would resound with the blows of the axe, and the hills would bristle with gaunt derricks. For a time the feverish life of the place would attract multitudes of speculat­ors, gamblers and evil women; even a church might spring up in a night. Then, suddenly, the excitement would flicker—a succession of wells might prove 4 ,dry-holes" or "dusters," a new territory might be opened—and speedily die out. The multitude would vanish, the roar of the torpedo and the puff of the engine no more be heard in the land. This, in brief, was the history of many mushroom dis­tricts in the oil regions; it was the story of the Cherry Grove disaster in 1880. Two men, Davis and Murphy, had made about a million apiece out of the mystery well, "QiQ," which opened up the new territory; I do not know how many hundred men and women were ruined by the crack. Every body speculated in oil certificates; I met a clergyman who had abandoued his profession td do so; oil scouts were college graduates.

To return to my story. When I reached Warren, where the nearest oil exchange was established, the excite­ment in the Cherry Grove country had largely subsided. But the stranger would not have believed it from the pandemonium of the exchange, I sat outside the railing and watched the howling fiends within, one of them in particular, a long, thin man, with sandy hair and mustache, <an appaling moutb and a voice of infinite reach.

At recess I made his acquaintance, through a common friend, with whom we both lunched. Said my friend:

" 'Sandy,' here, is the pride of the exchange. He has made more money in less time than any ©if us, and lost it sooner. Two hundred and fifty thou­sand in three hours, wasn't it, Sandy?"

This elicited, after some more press­ure and wine, the story I wanted to hear, which, as *<Sandy" modestly re­lated it, ran somewhat in this wise:

"I thought I had .a good thing. Oil was then sel l ing at very near a dollar and a quarter—call It a dollar and a quarter. There wasn't any Balltown. I had the best se@ut in the country, bar Si Hughes—eeuld put his ear to the ground a hundred yards off, and tell the flow of a well to the barrel. One day h e strolled into 'change, winked to me, and we went over to a windpw together, and sat down. •Look natural aa you can,' he said, 'I'm going to fiStump you.' 'Go ahead,' said L

t*'DoaTc,$Mmysterrp'' is a "duster! "* "I quivered all-over, of course, for

it was terrible b ig news. The market had been unsteady.all day, expect ing to hear big things of Doak's well, and the new territory at'd open up. But I kept my face ,and feet, lit a cigar, let on to yawn, ,and <made my plans. In about a quarter <of an hour I got to work. First I went at it slow and cau-: tious, as if l[ was uncertain, and the, boys guyed true, and sold all I wanted! to buy, and they thought I was trying: a bluff gaaaae, and dared me to buy in big blocks. Then I went in tooth and; nail, and bought all they offered me, .till they began t© suspect me, and won-' der what was up. About two o'clock I let the news leak o u t Then it came over the wire: *

*• 'Doak's mystery is a fluster!' "Such a .crowd of crazy men you

never saw. They lost their heads and fought the price up to $1.30; then I sold. I was 'in' abeut $250,000.

"Of eourse, I wanted to do the square thing. I telegraphed to all the near­est towns, and ordered down all the champagne they could sparer I went about myself in W a n « n and bought up every bottle 1 could find for sale, and invited the whole exchange that night to a big dinner- We had a great time. They were all good fellows, ;and I don't believe one of them was mad at me for my luck. Before nine o'clock I was soaked with. wine. m

"Just about that hour, or a little be­fore, in came Doak himself. ' Well , we *rept over him. and bathed h im in champagne, and he took it l ike a l itt le man. I made a place for him beside roe, and told him how I had done it.

"•It's lucky,' says he, laughing l ike a good fellow, 'that you cleared your­self by s ix o'clock.' 'Why?" says L •Well,' he says, "it's a falling market, I believe. If my well was dry, ail right; but there's oil out there sure as sin, and there's oil all around. You sold in good time.'

" 'Not a bit of it, Doakey.' says L 'You're all wrong. I'd do it again, and

•How much wouldfyoirtakeP *"* 'All you want to seU.!^ / i f v

T i l see you,' said he; shook hands.

"He took out a pencil and wrote the agreement, and,J signed it; and then we knocked the neck off another bottle, and I don't remember the rest of the n i g h t I swam in wine."

"But about a half-dozen fellows dragged me out of bed in the morning. •It's all up with you,' they said. 'Doak exploded his mystery, and it's a "gusher."' Sure enough i t was, and the cuss knew i t when he loaded me. The market dropped plumb from $1.30 to $1.22."

Sandy, still smiling, sank back in his chair, and smoked in silence.

"He hasn't told you," said my friend, "that if he had wished to he could have ignored the trick, as it i s a rule of the exchange that all transac­tions made out of the regular session may be declared off. But Sandy wouldn't take advantage of the provis­ion, So he lost his $250,000, and owed the market about $50,000 more."

"I've nearly paid that off," sighed Sandy.-—Once a Week.

PHONOGRAPHIC DOLLS.

They Sine "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little &tar, " and Other Pretty Tunes.

Fifty years ago the l i t t l e girl played with a rag doll. Then came wooden dolls, then wax and china, and finally papier mache and bisque. Then the dolls were taught to creep, and even walk, and when they progressed so far as to say "mamma" and "papa" in squeaky voices, the little girl no doubt thought the acme of doll culture had been reached. But within a very short time dolls have been produced that actually recite "Mother. Goose's Mel­odies," and other standard poems, such as "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."

How is the wonderful effect pro­duced? Easily enough, by means of the phonograph.

The dolls are about one foot in height. The phonographic apparatus, occupying the body of the doll, has a space perhaps two or three inches in diameter in which to operate. The dolls are brought from Europe, but the talking machinery is manufactured and inserted here.

As each doll reaches the proper a£& it is turned over to a governess spe­cially employed to train its phono­graphic ideas how to shoot. This lady gives the most careful, attention to the education of the dolls: She recognizes the value of individual training, im­parts separate instruction to every doll. Knowing the great imitative power of little folks, she is particular to modulate her voice to just the pitch which she wishes theirs to as­sume.

The doll pupils are required to re­peat her words until every accent and inflection is satisfactory. The dolls have such wonderful memories that not only do they repeat their lessons with accuracy, but they everr "hold the voice." .„ ...,!..

This faculty of theirs compeled the employment of-lady instructors. The deep, gruff voice of a man reciting "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" had rather a gruesome effect when issuing from the lips of a rosy-cheeked little dollie.

Their voices are strong and their ar­ticulation so clear that their conversa­tion can be heard up one flight of stairs with distinctness—somewhat more nerfeetly, in fact, than when close by, as there is a little z-r-r-r of the machinery which is not noticed at a distance.—Golden Days.

—It is self-absorption that carves wrinkles in the face, and streaks the hair with gray. Kindly thought and labor for others dependent and beloved —the living out of and not in the petty round of personal and individual inter­ests—keep heart and energies fresh.

—One who wants to be the object of good feelings on the part of others must be the subject of such feelings toward them.

"

—A Greek, the wisest man of his day, once cried with honest fervor: "What a heap of things there are that I do not want!" How lucky we sjaould be if we could get out of discontent and envy into his habit of loving the good we have, but fearing to have all the good we desire! Well, we think, we really ought to have such and such a thing. If that is so, we shall have it, but we will not whimper meanwhile.

'UNLUCKY FRIDAY.

The Ancient Superstit ion Still Holds Good A m o n g Seamen.

15'any one tells you that superstition has<died out among sailors and that the old prejudice against going to sea Friday no longer exists , don't believe him. The superstition, prejudice, call i* What you will, is as strong as ever and ilives in quarters where one would least expect to find i t None of our foig ocean steamers leave the port of N e w York Friday. It would be con­sidered unlueky by every one of the •crew from the captain to the cabin-boy. The Cunard Line steamers sail from here Saturdays and from Boston

'' Thursdays, the White Star Wednes­days , the Anchor Line Wednesdays and Saturdays, the French Line Satur­days, the'German Lloyd Saturdaysand Wednesdays, the Hamburg Line Thaars-•days, the Pacific Mail Mondays and Thursdays, .and so on all down the l i s t of the big ^companies that ferry itihe Atlantic. Hot a vessel belonging to iany of them is allowed to commence & voyage on aPriday .

Speakingv©f Friday being an unlucky aflay, I last-.evening asked Commander ^Rockwell, who commands the United S ta tes steamship Yantic, if i t as con­sidered unlucky in the navy to sai l on •a .Friday. '^Certainty i t i s ." was the response. " V e r y few officers want to saiil on a Friday if it can be avoided. I ana certain (that I do not. Why, the first t ime I ever put to sea on a Friday we were near having one of the great­est tragedies that the United States navgr has experienced in fifty years. I t was whi l e I WAS serving on the Oneida that we left Norfolk, Va. t that day, and we were hardly at sea when a fire broke out close to the magazine, and, before i t could be extinguished, the powder bans were so hot that we ex­pected the ship to blow up at almost any moment. No, sir, if I can get ready I will leave the navy yard April 1, but if I am ready a Friday I shall certainly wait over until Saturday."

Captain Rockwell i s a typical officer of the school which is giving us our new navy. When men of his stamp think Friday unlucky, is it a wonder that Poor Jack should fight, shy of the unlucky day?—N. Y. Star. f-.

—A very pretty story is related ol the Crown Princess of Denmark. Prince Waldemar and Princess Marie are good skaters, and one afternoon when, after a long run across the ice, they sat down to rest, they noticed a little boy who was vainly trying to put his skates on. On seeing the royal couple he took off his hat and said: "Oh, dear Princess Marie, can you not help me to put my skates on?" The royal lady smiled, knelt down on the ice and firmly fastened the straps around the boy's ankles.

^ » m-An Old Time Partisan.

It is easy to recall to mind his familiar figure as be sits, during "winter evenings in his favorite comer.

In his easy chair, with pipe in hand and his silver-rimmed "specs" pushed back until they find a soft resting place on his beloved snow-white head, with eyes spark­ling and his face beaming with pleasure as he calls back old memories of days long gone by, he is likely to talk something after this fashion:

"It's a long time since I was a boy. Ah, but that was many .years ago. Sixty long years have gone and the good Lord knows they were short/enough. I was then sprsice and pert;as any chap thereabouts.

MOh, bttt we boys were boys! Things have changed a heap since those days. Boys then .didn't take much stock in stylish clothes and they ^didn't carry canes like theydonow. Clothes and canes didn't cut much caper then, %at it was good bard sense and work.

"The boy who could do the biggest day^s' work—could cut the most wood, split the most rails, plow lihe most corn, was the most envied for he was sure to have the sweetest and hest lookin' gal at the 'sitagiu' school' or 'apple-peelinV

'3 tell you those were good old times! "I didn't think any thing of going thirty

mile or .more to «ee your grandmother, and-we didn't have very good roads either, .but.generally hadito follow some old Indian trail. S;

"Talkin' about sickness then, there was no sickness like now. If we had a cold, a pain, or any thing, there wa3 the best med­icine Jn the world found in any log cabin home you came across. Why, I remember that my old grandmother, God bless her soul, she's been dead these fifty years or more, eould make the best home made medicine for miles around. Her 'sarsapa-rilly' couldn't be beat. Come to think I 'ust read in the paper about somebody who s making this same«ld log cabin medicine, under the name of 'Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilia.'

"It does seem spleadid to think that you can buy those good old home cures at the druggist's nowadays.

"Mebby you think people were not healthy in those days, but I tell you that it was mighty .seldom anybody was sick long when they had such good old grand­mother medicine so handy. *
