Mr. D. MORTIMER, NJ D., in the last
Scientific american, has settled very
vexed and vexing question, viz: the ex-
act location of Heaven. He says "there
is a vast globe, or world, far within,
from the surrounding photosphere Of
ethereal fire, which all denominate the
sun, which globe is estimated to be at
least five hundred thousand miles in di>
ameter." d. Mortimer states that he
has brought divine revelation to bear on
this vast cen trail globe, and is plainly
tconvinced, 'that the globe thus discern
ed is the Heavenly Empire wherein the
righteous from this earth find their fu
ture home" Five hundred thousand
miles in diameter indicates the amplest
accommodation.

one that demands a thorough investigs-

Very Bad Breath.

The other day a couple Of German
women were walking along the road
some four or five miles south Of
Platteville, when they came across
what they supposed to be a very
handsome kitten. Being in want Of
such an animal, one Of them caught
it and carried it in her apron until
she procured a sack from one of the
neighbors to take it home in. The
little thing was secured in the sack,
and they walked off gaily, pleased
with their acquisition. Before they
had gone very far one Of them snuffed
around, and asked, "Was riecht SOP"
The other said, "Ich weis NIGHT. Vel
Itch list es die grass" "Nein," said
the other, "das can NIGHT sein, es
muss die katz in sein. Schmeiss doch
des enfeldig ding awee." But the
other persisted in holding on to her
treasure until they got home, when
the husband Of one Of them promptly

The women said they never before
came across cat with such a bad
breath. -PydheriUe Witness.

Red-N3M acSrHs.

Look out for red-oak acorns. If
you have red-oak trees In your hog
lots be sure and putyour hogs in pens
80 that they cannot get the acorns
when they fall. After they have
lain on the ground few weeks they
are not SO injurious, but when they
first begin to fall they will kill your
hogs if many are eaten. Sometimes
hogs will not eat these acorns at all
until after a hard freeze has sweet
ened them. AT other times they
will eat them greedily as soon as
they fall. For several years past we
have used hog lot containing few
red-oak trees. In '66 and '67 the
acorns lay untouched until Deem
Der. In 1868, our hogs, although well
fed on new corn, devoured the acorns
as fast rs they fell, and consequently
grew poorer and thinner each day.
The hair which was originally white
assumed reddish tinge, and we
have no doubt that had they had &C.
cess to the acorns another week, not
one Of them would have recovered.
We put them in another lot, gave
them plenty of ashes and charcoal,
and in few weeks we got the red
oak out of them and they began to
thrive. We shall not risk them with
the acorns again. Western Stock

A Veteran.

We present below history OF
Nicholas RAINY, for many years past
a resident of this city. 1t seems
strange, Notwithstanding the many
perilous and hairbreadth escapes OF
our own soldiers during the late war,
to think we have in the person OF
"Dad RAINY" the hero of all the fol-
lowing: and yet it is true. Mr..
RAINY has two daughters, both mar
ried, and one son, John, at present
engineer at Montgomery & Mckey's
Distillery at Beacon, who served
over four years in. the Sd and 33d
Iowa Infantry during the late war,
and was wounded in the foot at the
battle Of Helena.
Nicholas RAINY was born IN
France in March, 1871, and is now
in his 10th year. At an early age
he was semitic military school, and
at II entered the army with LIST
Lieutenant's commission, in the
Fourth Hussars under Prince Murat.
He was engaged in number OF bat
ties, and at Wagram was wounded
twice. He followed Murat to Spain,
and was engaged in all the principal
operations against the Duke of Well
ington during three years cam
paign, and was finally wounded in
r the leg and taken prisoner, lat the
battle in which Sir John Moore was
killed, we believe). He was con-
fined for some time at Gibraltar,
and finally sent to England, where,
with nearly 500 others, he was con-
fined in an old vessel in the channel.
Becoming tired of confinement,
they chose to risk anything rather
than a continuance Of it, and one
night overpowered the guard, threw
them overheard, cut loose, drifted
out to sea, and were picked up by an
American vessel, and brought to
this country, where they landed in
May, 1913. Lieut.. RAINY, with many
others, Immediately enlisted under
the American banner, and served
under Macomb until the close of the
war, receiving wound at the battle
of Plattsburg. He made the latter
place his home; and in 1Sl9-5Oyears
ago-was there made a Mason. He
came to this city in 1852, where he
has since resided. When the Grey
beard regiment was raised, he was
one of the first to put down hisname;
and as he was a splendid drummer
received the appointment of Chief
Musician Of the Regiment, which
position he held until mustered out

His father talkee to boy, and say,
