BURIED ALIVE "A friend gives US the
account of a most terrible case Of tho burial
alive Of handsome young lady at jackson.
vile, Illinois. Some time last summer q
young lady Of seventeen years Of age, sui.
fering with the toothache, went to bed with
small phial Of chloroform, for the purpose
Of quieting her teeth. In the morning she
was found to all appearances dead, which
was confirmed by the opinions of several
physicians who were called and examined
her body. She was then buried. A few
days since her relatives were about to re-
move from Jacksonville, having located in
another State, and had the remains Of the
young lady exhumed, for the purpose Of
taking them to their new home. Curiosity
prompted them to open the coffin, when
they were horror stricken on finding the
corpse turned over, both hands full Of hair,
and her clothing torn to shreds, revealing
the horrible truth that the young lady had
been buried alive. The chloroform had
placed her in deep trance, the awakening
from which was in her coffin and grave.
The lady was engaged to be married OF the
time Of her supposed death. A more heart.
sickeniug case we never remember to have
read or heard of--lnd,anapolis Journal.
A LESSON FOR LAZY WlvEs.--One day
sturdy peasant was at work in the field
amid storm and rain, and went home in the
evening, tired and drcnched to the skin.
His loving wife said my dear, it has been
raining 80 bad that I could fetch no water,
have not been able to make you any din.
ner As you are wet through, / shall be
obliged to you to fetch me couple Of buck
cts Of watar-you cannot get any wetter. +"
The argument was striking; he therefore,
took two buckets and fetched some water
from the well, which was at considerable
distance. On reaching his house he found
bis wife comfortably seated by the fire; then,
lifting one bucket after another, he poured
tho contents over bis kind, considerable Ia
partner. "Now, wife," said he, ''you are
quite a. wet a am, 50 you may % well
fetch water for yourself, you csnt't get any
wetter,"
