- NEW YORK, April 7.——Mrs. Jeannette

four children and little means of support.

it by the feet and dashed its head upon the
:floor and used it as a hammer to pound
the mother into insensibility. The babe’s
:skull is broken and the mother is in a pre-
carious condition. The negro will be
xlynehed if caught.

A REALISM TERRIBLEJII'NEJTS IN—
TENSITY. ..

A Story which is Withoutantqual
in the World.

The Exact Facts Told Exactly as
They Occhred.

LEBANON, N. H. As your correspon-
dent I communicate the followmg re-
markable story exactly as It came from
the lady’s own lips. Everybody 1n
Lebanon, N. EL, knows ,Mrs. S._ R.
Berry well ; indeed she is- a most high-
ly respected resident here. The story
is one which fparticularly interests
ever one at this season. _

“Iy was in a very bad way; such
trembling in my arms and limbs, and
my heart was just frightful, and those
terrible sweeping chills and trembling
in my limbs made me expect a shock or
to lose the use of them cOmpletely.

“I could not sleep nights because
my heart would palpitate and the chills
or shaking would follow, and I could
do but very little of anything.

“I could not sit up all day, but had
to lie down a greatdeal, and my nerves
were very weak and of no use. Why, I
could not bear any noise.

“There was a terrible pain in my
head, with burning both sides of the
head, and I was almost a complete
wreck of my former self.“ ,

“No one had any hopes of my belng
better. My doctor ordered a change of
everything, but I was not equal to mov-
-1ng anywhere, indeed could not walk
any to speak of, onlydrag about from
one room to another.

“And such dull, heavy feelings. as if
I was about to meet'some awful doom.
All the time I was’depressed in mind
and spirits and could not cheer up.

“My liver was swollen so I could
not rest unless hot applications were
used on my side, and my kidneys were
very bad.

“In my despair, I began the use of
Dr. Greene’s N ervura blood and nerve
remedy. and I will say that'this won-
derful medicine is the greatest bless-
ing that ever came into a fannly.

 

» MRS. s. n. canny.

“It has done perfect wonders for me.
I was soon on the right road to health
and strength by its use, and I am gain-

ing every day. After taking two bot-
tles I could do more work than I had
for over a year, and now I do all my
housework and all my sewing. I can
walk vigorously, indeed have walked
as far as five miles in an afternoon.
Yes it is true, you can ask anyone here.

“I can new cat better than ever, am
strong again and have-got back most of
my former looks and good color.

“I am a wonder to ‘eVerybody who
knows how weak and low I was before
using this remedy. Our doctor met
me a few days ago and said that I was
doing wonderfully, that my eyes were
bright and that I looked well.

“Oh, words are-useless: I cannot
cannot tell how much I prize this great
and blessed medicine. All my family
join me in one loud chorus in saying,
God bless this great health giving
remedy ! I have told every one of my
friends, far and near, and you see they
cannot help believing for here I am a
living witness to showwhat has been
done for me.”

Can anything be added to this?

The sick and suffering should cer-
tainly use so marvellous a health giver
as this great gemedy appears to be.
Especially shou d all use it now for it
is the most exce lent of all spring medi-
cines to invigorate the blood, strength-
en the nerves and regulate all the or-
gans. It is purely vegetable and harm-
ioss, and druggists keep it for $1 a bot-

e.

Doctors recommend and prescribe it
because it is the discovery and pre-
scription of an eminent physician, Dr.
Greene, of 35 W. 14th Street, New
York, the successful specialist in our-
ing all forms of nervous and chronic
diseases. 'l‘h _, doctor can be consul-
ted free, personally or by letter.

I’d explained to him’ over and often
What a good little boy should‘bé: 7

How temper and tumult to soften.
And naughty waysto flee.

He listened, mute and quiet,
With earnest eyes of blue.
Then: “I don’t fink I‘ll try it.
I‘d ravver be like you!"
—-D. Lummis in Kate Field's Washington,

A plumber at Narragansett had a horse '
27 years old, which was used for. carry-g
ing around his master’s material when ‘

time in a small pasture. A fox’ terrier,
also belonging to the plumber, was an in-
separable companion of the old horse.
When the old horse was harnessed to the
cart the dog was on guard to see that
nothing was stolen from the cart. In
the pasture the dog was always snifling

roll in the grass, which it often did, ap-.
parently to please the dog, which would
jump about in every direction and bark
for pure joy.

At night when the horse was put in the
barn the dog always entered with its
friend and slept on the animal’s body.
One day the neighbors heard the most
dismal howls coming from the pasture
and found that the old horse had died.
There was the terrier on the dead body,
howling out its sorrow and misery. The
dog remained with the body until it was
removed for burial—New York Tribune.

A Pocket Life Saving Apparatus.

In 1874 Lieutenant Brunel of Dieppe
introduced his pocket life saving lines, of
which already upward of 3,340 are being
used in France, where they now rescue
annually some 285 lives. Nevertheless
these admirable inventions are almost
unknown in our empire. Brunel’s small
pocket line consists of a wooden float,
round which some 90 feet of stout cord
is wound. The other end of the cord
terminates in an efficient grapnel armed
with four small hooks. The whole. ap—
paratus complete weighs only five-
ounces and is the most convenient of all
life saving lines. Hence I urge itsadop—
tidh everywhere, especially for Officials
and others engaged about our coasts and
inland waters. These appliances could
be profitably retailed for about Is. 6d.
each, and any one can make them.-Lon~
don Vanity Fair.

A Magnetic Detector. ,.

A clever contrivance has been invents
ed for the detection of small pieces of-
magnetizable metal, such as needles,
tacks, steel and iron chips, etc., that may
have entered the human body unawares
and hidden themselves in the skin or
deeper tissues. The instrument was de-
vised by Dr. J. B. Williams and consists.

nation of small magnetic needles sus—
pended within a glass tube, the tube be-
ing covered with tinfoil to minimize
electric action, except for a small space
through which the needle can be ob-V
served. It is claimed that the instrua
ment is sumciently delicate to detect the

or iron wire at a distance of six inches,
from itself.;'—'New York Telegram.

Ch'ased With a Mouthful. _
Captain Bendire, a well known orniJ

Rillitto creek, Arizona, when he saw a
big black hawk. He followed the flying
bird and at length came up with it,
perched on a dead limb of a cottonwood
tree. A bulky nest was in a fork of the
tree about 40 feet from the ground. The
mate of the hawk which the captain had
been following was sitting on the nest.

Hoping to secure a trophy, Captain
Bendire climbed up to the nest, in which,
he found a single pale blue egg. The
parent birds circled around manifesting
their anger at the intrusion by shrill
screams, but the captain took the egg.
He put it in his mouth for safekeeping,
as he required both hands in his descent.

Suddenly from his elevated perch he
caught sight of several Apache Indians
crouched in a small canyon about 80
yards distant. , They were evidently
watching him.

He was awake to his danger in an in-
stant, but he manifested no signs of
alarm and descended to the ground in a
leisurely manner. Had the Indians per-
ceived that they were discovered, they
would have been waiting for the egg
hunter at the foot of the tree.

As it was the captain reached the
ground, mounted his horse and started
on a gallop for the camp, five miles dis-
taut.

In a moment the Apaches broke cover
and pursued. They chased him nearly
to the camp, but he reached it in safety,
the egg still in his mouth. It was un-
broken. Owing to its large size the cap-
tain had difficulty in removing it from
his month without injuring it. His jaws
ached for some time afterward.—Youth’s
Companion. ’

The New and the Beautiful.

“That is the most peculiar and as-
tounding faculty of the mind» that calls
the new, the beautiful,” said Charles
Truax. “Now, just think a. minute.
Look at the change in fashions, and then
you see it perfectly. The hat that you
were last season—the one with the stiff
rim and soft crown—how nice and nobby
it looked then! Now, when you tried it
on again the other day, accidentally run-
ning across it in the locker, why,., it
.looked hideous, didn’t it? It’s impossi.
ble to define Why this is so. You can’t
say it is because the mind dislikes old
things (some minds don’t) nor that all
minds love the new, the change. It isn’t
exactly because persons diser to beodd
or out of date, for some take great de-
light in looking strange and odd. -

“Others do not wear the” new things
first simply to be the first. While I do
not think this sense comes from orguides
itself by any one of these influences, yet
the sum of them all gees to make up a
circle of harmony inside of which one
would rather dwell than out. - There are
a thousand little things that the mind
comprehends almost unconscidasly and
acts accordingly. It is this reflex action
of brain work that makes it possible for
'one to understand why we do these
things.?’-Et. Louis Globe-Democrat.
