SHEEp-BEILS A CHARM AGAINST Does
Some days ago we read in an agricultural mag
azine statement of the large annual loss Of
sheep destroyed by dogs probably to the extent
of Sl50,000 Friday evening We were looking
through the last number of the Scientific Amer
lean, and read communication remarking
upon the circumstance, that the bell a0ether
never was harmed by dogs attacking flock of
sheep. Upon observing this fact, farmer,
experimented, and placed on the neck of a
dozen sheep in the flock, perhaps halt dozen
small bells on each, fixed to a collar, and the
result of his observation is, that those likewise
escaped harm from the dogs.-FsterS6ag Er,

EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF BoYIsH ATTACH
MENT.-Some time ago poorly dressed boy
made his appearance at the farm OF Mr.. John
Thomas, living in the town of Lake, and asked
for work. Mr.. Thomas had nothing Tor the
bow to do. and was about sending him away,
when daughter of the farmer entreated that
he might be employed in doing something
about the farm, she taking pity upon the
boys iriendless look and destitute condition. -
Mr.. Thomas told the boy he might stay wit
him until he could get another place. The
boy, between fourteen and fifteen years of age.
Immediately went to work, and in few days
it was found that he was so useful about the
farm, that he was employed aud taken st once
into the family. The boy said he lived in New
York he thought his parents were dead, but
did not know, and that he had been sent West
with some other boys and put to work on
farm. The man he was with treated him so
unkindly that he ran away, and coming to
Milwaukee, had walked out to the farm, and,
fortunately for him, he succeeded in finding
home. The action of the farmers daughter
in appealing for the boy appeared to awaken
feeling of gratitude in the little waits heart,
and he could not show his thankfulness or at
tachment for the young lady in too greatsa
degree.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Thomas daughter was
married, and with her husband went to Chicago
to live. The boy appeared to take the absence
of his mistress very much at heart, and to
mourn over it. Last week he went to
Chicago, end finding her, entreated that he
might live with her and her husband; but this
being impossible, money was given him to pay
his fare home, q number of presents were made
him and he was sent. He came home, but the
loss seemed to upset his mind. He tried to
work, but could not, and finally cried and
mourned himself into a fit of sickness, he was
carefully taken care of by Mr. Thomas's family
and on Wednesday morning appeared IN much
better spirits but while the attention OF the
family was directed from him, the boy got up
from his bed, and fastening an old comfort
about his neck, attempted to hang himself to
the bed post. Some noise made attracted the
attention of Mrs. Thomas, who went to the
room to find him hanging and struggling, He
was taken down, and by careful attenti on soon
recovered his consciousness The boy said he
did not want to live if Miss Mary, rs he called
the young lady, was taken from him, and that
he felt so sad when she was away he did not
care what became of him. Yesterday. the lady,
in answer to dispatch came up from Chicago,
when the boy exhibited his Joy In every posi-.
bic manner, giving his promise that he would
make no more such attempts upon his lite. 1t
is one OF the most singular cases of attachment
that has ever come under our notice. --MltlCdukee

The most curious phenomenon of
which we have ever heard, occurred in

The day it will he remembered was re-
lnarkably hot, so that most people in the
county had To seek the shade about
noon. At this hour, on the farm of Ed.
Sharp, five miles from Ashland, a sort
Of whirlwind cam, along over the reigh-
boring woods, taking up small branches
aud leaves of trees and burning them in
a sort Of flaming cylinder that travelled
at the rate Of about five miles all hour,
and developing in >iZc as It travelled.

in ten minutes the whole building was
