The six degrees of crime are thus defined
He who steals million is only tinancier.
Who steals half million is only defaulter.
Who steals quarter of million is swind-
Ter. Who steals hundred thousand is a
knave. But he who steals a pair Of boots or

Exg" In our advertising columns will be
found notice of a new medicine for bowel
complaints, which its proprietor claims to be
of great value, and as having right to more
confidence than is generally accorded to en-
pirical remedies This medicine is said to
have been prepared originally from a prescrip-
ton given by an eminent English physician,
practicing at the time in the city Of Phiadel-
phia, for a lady of that city who was about
removing to Geneva, N. Y. He was her
family physician, and in view of her expect
ed removal West, advised her to keep copy
of the prescription, assuring her that it would
be well worthy of place in the family med
icine chest. After reaching her new home
she frequently found occasion to use it for her
neighbors, until its reputation becoming troub-
lesome, she gave the recipe to Mr.. p. BoURs
IA worthy gentleman who had been unfortu-
nate in his pecuniary affairs), for the purpose
of preparing it for sale. Mr.. BoURs manu-
featured and sold it in Geneva and the vicini-
ty, many years, until the call for it had in
creased to such degree as to demand its
preparation on more extensive scale, when
he sold it to its present proprietor.

SOMETHING THE PRIEST COULDN'T BURN
A Romish priest in Ireland, meeting boy
with Bible in his hand, which he had got
at Protestant school, took him home, and
on entering his room, threw the Bible into
the fire, telling the boy it was a bad book and
he should not read it again, at the same time
forbidding him to go to school again. The
boy was at first sad, but soon began to smile.

FARMERS READ THIs.-Several car loads
of sprouted wheat by the Michigan Southern
Railroad, were offered in this market last week
without finding buyers. We learn that some
was forwarded to Buffalo, and there remains
on the market unsold.
Excessive care should be taken not to mix
sound and unsound wheat together Expert
enced men will not buy it. Nothing millers
so much dread as grown wheat. The small
est possible share of grown wheat taints the
whole pile, and renders the flour made from
it unsaleable. Neither can an experienced
buyer be easily deceived. If the sprouts are
beaten of, it is detected by the lessened
weight and changed color. Toledo Blade.

APHoRIsMs.-If you want to make a sober
man drunkard, give him wife that will
