A SINGULAR SroRr.-A strange story
Of swindling and malpractice comes from
Detroit. A couple Of doctors sporting
the name of ",rle Twin Doctors" have
been performing surgical operations and
prescribing medicine solely for the pur.
pose Of obtaining money. Among others
they visited q farmer who had boy
about nine years old who has been a
cripple for three years past, the cord Of
the right leg being drawn up. The doe
tors no sooner saw the hoy then they
said they could cure him for SOS, and so
they strapped the boys crooked leg to a
straight board, but as the pain was ter
rible, and they found they could not
bend the leg to any extent without the
poor little fellow fainting away, they
said they would cut the cords at the
back Of the knee. and then, they asserted,
they could straighten the limb at once.
The father fortunately was Rwnre that
such an operation would ruin his child,
paid the men the SIS, and in his own
words told them 10 "clear out" These
brutes deserve State prison, and we are
glad to hear tho authorities are after
them.

Boyxrrs.-Pari,ian bonnets show high
soft-crowns and DENIAL fronts, and are, in
fact distingnibhhble from round hats only
BY their faille ribbon strings. Those Of
black velvet are entirely without color;
Afaill6 how rests on the pulled crown, and
ostrich tips ornament the left side. Even
ing bonnets are Of the palest shades OF
royale and a pretty fashion Is to form
them Of three puffs going around the
frame, as II on round hat the centre
filed in with ostrich tips and loops ffaille
that droop over the back hair.

How A LADY KEPr HER PROMISE
Lady Penelope darcy, the only daughter
Of the Earl Of Rivers, when only seven.
teen, was wooed by three suitors at the
same time-Sir George Trenchard, Sir
John Gage and Sir William Hervcy.
The Knights rs in chivalry bound, were
disposed to contest the prize with target
and lance but the lady herself forbade
the battle, and menaced the disobedient
Knights with her lnsting displeasure,
promising jocularly that, il they had but
patience, she would have them all in
their turns And she actually fulfilled
her promise, for she espoused first Sir
George Trcnchard Of Wolverton, second.
" Sir John Gage Of Foile, and thirdly
Sir William Hervey Of 1ckworth, and
buried the last Of them before she was
forty years old.

PREVALENCE OF FALSE
HOOD.

1t IS always far easier to denounce
the vices of other times than to re-
frain entirely from those of our own.
One OF the most common among the
prevalent evils of our day is false
modifying in it's various forms and
shades. We think there has been no
time since the days of Luther when
the standard Of truth-speaking among
Christians was so low as at present.
Certain small unveracities steal into
the speech Of good men and women,
and become habitual because they are
supposed to be harmless. It would
be more frank to say, because they
are so convenient. "They do not
deceive, everybody knows what they
mean,' we often hear people say Of
these current equivocations. But the
children Of each generation have to
learn over again the lesson of this
double-dealing, this playing with
words when we say one thing and
mean another. The lesson is, to ev-
cry we'll born child, painful and most
mischievous one. Besides, the use OF
the "harmless'' conventional fiction
takes off the fine edge Of our. sense Of
truth. 1t lessons our feeling of the
obligation to be strict and exact and
leads 10 loose and careless habits as
to statements and promises.
1t seems clear that there has been
a great increase Of these evils within
the last few years, especially in the
Christian Church. We hear on ev-
cry side Of men who make the high
est profession of Christian character,
who make promises and engagements
apparently without any thought Of
keeping them, and who seem to
think failure to keep their word a
very trivial matter, unless there is
some important financial interest de-
pending upon the fulfllment of their
engagements; in which case policy
plainly favors the same course Of ac-
ton that is required by rectitude.
Let us beware Of lying. Liberal
Christian.

4 PICTURE AND A PICTURE
DEALER SOLD.

The Paris correspondent Of the
''Boston Globe" tells this story:
"Speaking of pictures, one of the
neatest tricks [ ever heard Of was
played off the other day on a dealer
in objects of art. A gentleman ex-
amined his collection, bought a little
ivory statuette and paid for it. Til en-
he said
"'Please put it aside, and [ will
call for it; also be kind enough to
take charge Of this picture handing
him q canvas.
''Some time after he left a sec
ond gentleman made his appearance,
examined a variety of articles, and at
last uttered an exclamation of de-
light as his eye fell on the picture
left in the dealers charge by his
customer.
'And how much for that? he
asked.
'The dealer informed him that
it was not for sale, and did not belong
to him.
What a pity said the gen
tleman, 1--we fallen in love with it,
and would give 5000 francs for it,
and 500 to you if you could procure
it for me- At the same time he
slipped 500 francs into the dealers
hand and took his departure.
"The owner of the picture came
back an hour afterward. and was
asked if he would sell it.
CO l have no thought Of doing So
he replied. And then, you would
not pay its value. If | did sell it [
should ask 1000 francs for it; it's
a perfect gem
"After a little debating, however,
he did sell it, and departed, carry
ing off 1000 francs in his pocket,
and the little statuette he had paid
for.
cit is useless to add that the
amateur never called for the picture,
that it is still hanging in the dealers
shop, and that that unfortunate gen
tleman is out $500 francs"

PHOTOGRAPHIC THE
HEARTS ACTION.

The movements of liquids in the
barometer and thermometer, the pas
sage Of spots across the sun, the in
dications of the spectroscope, are
registered daily by the photograph.
We now add to the many other du-
ties performed by this hand-maiden
ofsciehce, that Of registering the ac-
ton Of the human heart.
The device by which this result is
attainedis the invention Of DIR. Or a
nam. 1t consists of a thin india
rubber bag, to which short glass
tube is attached. Sufficient mercu-
ry is poured into the apparatus to fill
the bag and portion of the tube,
and the instrument is placed over the
heart of the person to be examined.
Thus arranged, every pulsation Of
the heart is indicated by a cores
ponding movement of the mercury in
the tube and by a suitable photo
graphic apparatus, provided with a
moving sensitive slip of paper, per
feet registration Of the extent and
rate Of the puIsations is obtained.
AS an earnest of the discoveries
this ingenious device is to yield, we
are told that the Photographic image
thus obtained shows ''that the col
ume Of mercury representing, Of
course, the blood in the arteries
bounded with one leap to the top OF
the scale, and then descended again
to its original level by three or four
successive falls. Four descripti ons
Of dicrotism have in this way been
proved to exist, the fall Of the pulse
sometimes taking place in successive
horizontal lines and sometimes in
ascendant lines, the columns r6ascend-
ing two or three times before falling
altogether '-Scri51aer's for Ase-
gust.

A BRAVE WOMAN.

The following is copied from the
Tuscan(Cal.) Citizen of July 26th !:
"Mr. Gavena has charge of Hughes
ranch, where three attacks have been
made by the Apaches recently.
His wife has an infant less than a
month old. Governor Stafford visit
ed them this week and urged Mrs.
Gavena to go to place of more Sc

danger, and if he must fall a victim
to Apache cruelty, let baby and go
with him. Icannot bear to leave him
alone in this place Of danger 1t
would have been hard heart that
did not melt at such a scene; and
yet brave women are accepting these
posts all over the territories.

A MODEST REQUEST.

A Paris correspondent relates a
story, which may be taken as an IL
lustration Of sublime impudence.
He states that a gentleman walking
with his child on the banks of the
riveg, the child slipped over the bank
into the water, and would certainly
have been drowned but for the cour-
age of a man who was fishing, who
jumped in and saved the boy. The
father thanked him cordially, but
asked him if he would add to the OBJ
legation, as he was already wet
through, by swimming out for his
sons cap.

NEWSPAPER GOSSIP. Since the Tribune be-
gan to defend Tammany Hall, the circuatio
of the Deity Times has run up to over fifty
from six thousand to sixty thousand Since
Mr.. Greeley was nominated at Baltimore,
over fifty thousand of the 1ribuae's weekly
subscribers have stopped the paper or given
notice to have it. stopped on the expiration
OF their subscription. This statement comes
from one pecunlarily interested in the 1rS-
bWne, and holding such a position that he
knows whereof he speaks. Nast's cartoons
in the last Harper, viz. the Trojan Horse
game, and Tweed making cats paw OF
Greeley, are regarded as the best political
hits he has yet made. Everybody is buying
the paper and laughing at the caricatures. =

HOW A CLERGYMAN CAR
RIED HIS POINT.

A correspondent Of the Exeter IN.
H. News Letter gives some reminis-
cences of a religious society that was
formed in Kingston, in that state, in
1925. This society was Congrega-
tional, and most Of its members OBJ
jected to the use of the church by
any of different belief. One Sunday
morning, Rev. Daniel Tewksbury, a
confirmed Baptist, took his position
in the pulpit, which was surrounded
by a few Of the more liberal-minded
members Of the society, armed with
sled stakes. About the time services
usually commenced, the pastor, Rev.
John Turner, entered, followed by a
large party of his supporters, and as
they advanced up the aisle the men
around the pulpit grasped their wea-
pons more firmly; but instead Of at
tempting to enter the pulpit, Mr..
Turner mounted the seat in the front
pew, gave out hymn, which his
choir at once sang, and with scarce
ly a seconds intermission he went
through with prayer, sermon and
benediction, Mr.. Tewksbury sitting
in mute surprise, with no chance to
make beginning.

A curious lawsuit was recently
decided in England. A man who
had bought horse brought an ac-
tion against the seller, ON the ground
that while the horse was represented
to be ''lier," he was in reality a
''stander," In the course Of evil
dence it was explained that a "lier''
did not mean person who had diff
fered in opinion from Mr.. Greeley,
but horse who was accustomed to
sleep while lying down, instead OF
standing-the latter being the repre-
hensible practise Of the ISLANDER. y
The action was decided in favor Of
the plaintiff, who received consider
able sum as damages. Why horse
who lies down to sleepshould be con-
siderel so much more desirable than
one who goes to sleep on all fours
was not explained. Clearly, howev-
er, he is so considered in England.
AS it is the well-known habit Of most
horses to sleep while standing, ''Iier''
is evidently an exceptional animal,
and perhaps his greater value is due
to that fact alone.
