Of Mustapha, which resembles the 'sstuo and

The making Of gun, two old horseshOes
are taken, together with small pieces Of old
iron, the whole weighing not quite two
pounds. In the beating the small pieces
are arranged 10 such u manner that the

A CALF SWALLOWS A ROLL OF
GREENBAcKs.--Joh Yetter, of Nor
tonville, lost a quantity of money
and some notes Of hand, a few days
since. in a very singular manner.
He was working in the stable and
took off his vest and threw it over a
stall. A large pocket-book contain
ing $40 in bank notes, and several
notes of hand, dropped out of the
side pocket near a calf The notes
were rather longer than the pocket.
book, and the calf drew them out
and ate them. ..
When Mr. Yetter returned for his
vest his treasure, as well as a number
of vendue notes, varying in amounts
from $50 $3.50 were missing. The
heifer could not be made to refund
by persuasion or other mild means.
1t was at length decided to force a
payment, and to do this it was ne
cessary to kill the animal, which
was done, and three $40 notes were
recovered, but the balance Of the
money, &C., had been so ''changed'
as to be worthless.
Mr.. Yetter had placed these notes
when received, in hands of Gheen &
Morgan, bankers and brokers, but a
short time since took them up, with
view of getting the money from the
parties. Their value will be recoy-
orod Mr. Yattor'S 1oss will anoouut
to about VdUey Timers.

Our CONSOLATION. - There are
two great pillars that bear US up
amid the wreck of misfortune and
misery. The one is composed of
the different notifications of a GER
tain noble, stubborn something in
man, known by the names of oour-
age, fortitude, magnanimity. The
other is made up Of those feelings
and sentiments, which however the
skeptic may deny them. or the en-
thusiast dishgure them, are yet orr
ginal and component parts Of the
human soul; those senses of the
mind, which connect us with and
link US to those awful obscure re-
alities-an all powerful and equally
'benefcient God, and world to
come beyond death and the grave.
The first gives the nerve of combat
while a ray of hope beams on the
field; the last hours the balm of
comfort into the wounds which time
can never cure Port Clinton Union.

TAKE HEED.-We may rise in the
morning with our hearts light and
our spirits free, and before evening
comes-nay, in one short hour
circumstances may occur which
shall call for the exercise of no
ordinary share of grace; and, unless
we arc on our guard, plunge us
into guilt, shame and distress. In
many dismal sting of private life,
we find that the sin which threw
it's chill. withering shade over all
succeeding years, from which there
was no refuge but through the dark
n ess of the grave-was committed
without premeditation, without de-
sign, simply by being "off ones
guard.'' It is possible one hour
to shudder at the thought of sin.
and before that hour is passed away
to be the thing you shudder at.

Treatment of Scarlet Fever.

DR.. Charles I. Thompson reports
in the Lancet his manner of treat
ment in scarlet fever as follows:
The patient is immersed in warm
bath in the early stage of the dis
ease, and this is repeated frequently,
or as often as the strength of the
patient will allow. The first effect
is to produce a soothing and re-
freshing feeling in the patient, to DC
followed soon by such an eruption
on the surface, of so vivid color,
and in such amount as would as
tonish those who have never wit
messed it. Thus one of the great
est dangers of this fearful disease
the suppression Of the eruption-ia
escaped. The appetite generally
returns after the first or second bath,
and the strength of the patient is
kept up by nutritious food. The
bath prevents the dissemination OF
the disease, by removing the eA-
creta from the skin as soon as it Is
deposited. This treatment promotes
circular desquamation. The body
should be gently dried by soft linen
cloths after the bath. BY this pro-
cedure the various secretions are de-
prived of their noxious properties,
and the irritation of internal organs
is quickly relieved, thus dissipating
infection. Another benefit is that
a very serious case is soon reduced
to mild one, and the patient re-
covers in less than half the usual
time. Since DIR. Thompson has pur
sued this practice-during the last
fifteen years-he has never lost q
patient from scarlet fever.

Sufferings of a White Woman
CAPTURED by Indians.


ry of savage barbarity:
"About four years since family
named Weigel removed from Ohio
TO Kansas, and settled on stream
known as Solomon's Fork. The
family consisted of John Weigel
and wife, and three children, two
boys and girl, the former aged
respectively ten and twelve, the
latter three. A homestead of eighty
acres was taken up, and in two
years was all under cultivation.
At that time, as our readers will
remember from accounts published,
the Crow Foot Indians made raid
through that portion of Kansas,
leaving death and destruction. in
their wake. The Weigel farm was
attacked, and the entire family,
except Mrs. Weigel, butchercd.--
That day was the last time she was
seen, until Sunday last, When Gen
eral Carr made an attack on an
Indian village near Platte Valley
station. Two white women were
seen by the soldiers in possession
of the Indians struggling as if to
make their way to the ranks of Gen
eral Carr's command. An order
was given to charge and rescue the
women, which was obeyed by the
brave men, but before they could
gain possession of the women, Il
savage sunk his tomahawk into the
head of one of them, whose only
known name is Susanna, who fell
to the earth. Another Indian fired
a revolver at Mrs. Weigel, but the
shot fortunately struck rib and
glanced off, causing but a slight
wound. Before any other murder
Gus demonstrations could be made,
a private soldier, whose name and
company is at present unknown,
put spurs to his horse and rushed
gallantly to the very keart of the
Indian band, grasped Mrs. Weigel
by the waist, lifted her on to his
horse, and galloped away to the
wagon train, where all care and at
tention was given to the unfortu-
nate woman. Too much praise can
not be bestowed upon the brave man,
and were his name but known it
would be a pleasure to herald it
forth to the world.
The battle soon afterward came
to a termination by the capture OF
the entire Indian outfit, with the
exception of those who fell early in
the fight.
| Mrs. Weigel stated to an officer
that she had been a prisoner among
the Indians since the summer Of
1867. For year she had been the
forced mistress of Grow Foot
chief Buffalo Man, who got tired OF
her after year and disposed of her
to another chief, named Tall Tree,
the consideration being couple OF
ponies.
She states that several times after
her capture she attempted suicide,
but was treated with all the kind
ness generally bestowed by Indians.
which had tendency to cause her
to accept the situation, yet she
never could accustom herself to pol
luton.
She has become very course Of
feature. cansed by exposure. Her
Joy at being rescued was very great,
but she seems, after all. discontented,
and at times tired of life. At the
time Of her first capture, she was
tied hand and foot, and forced to
pander to the hellish desires of her
captor.
Mrs. Weigel has relatives in Ohio,
who have been notified of her cap
ture, and will Immediately remove
to her old Ohio home

Graudma's Dreams.

I wonder what grandma is thinking about,
AS she sits in the corner there,
With the freight shining into her eyes,
And over her silver hair?
She has laid her Knitting across her knee,
And folded her hands SO thin,
And know that her thoughts are far away,
In spite of the children's din.
I'm sure it is something strange and sweet,
That brightens her eyes SO dim;
Perhaps she is seeing the golden gates,
And hearing the angels hymnl
And she smiles to think that she soon will eros
Where the wonderful river rolls,
And gather the roses of youth again,
In the beautiful garden of souls!

BE CHEERFUL.-A cheerful face is
the radiance of the soul-and should
be worn at all times, but especially
at home. Let your cheerfulness be
felt for good wherever you are, and
let your smiles be scattered like
sunbeams, con the unjust as well as
on the just" Such disposition.
dear reader, will yield you a rich
reward, for its happy effects will
come home to you, and brighten
your moments of thought. Cheer
fulness makes the mind clear, gives
tone to the thoughts, adds grace
and beauty to the oountenance.
Joubert says: "When you give,
give with JOY and smiling" Smiles
are little things-they cost nothing
and are traught with blessings, both
to the giver and receiver; pleasant
little ripples to watch on the shores
of every day life. Children and
youth, especially need the benefit of
them; these little dependent ones,
who require the sunshine of the
heart to educate them, seek a level
for their buoyant natures in the
cheerful living faces of those who
are rejoicing in the fullness of life.
