Underground Discoveries in Iowa


The Eldora (Iowa) Ledger of this
week says:
william Leverton's farm, few
miles from Abbott station, in thi:
country. has been the scene of some
remarkable discoveries lately. In
digging a we'll the workmen unearth,
ed several Contributions to o museu m
of natural sciences. When down fit,
teen feet quantity of oats were
found, Dramatically sealed up In a
bed of clay. They were fresh ard
green as If just out. Having pene.
trsted six feet farther q limb of tree
was found, and by the old woodmen
up there said to be q white cedar.
Several other pieces were found.
When forty feet down, the shoulder
blade from an animal was unearthed.
1t belonged to an animal known to
have roamed this country, and has
caused considerable speculation
among the people about Abbott.
The Done was sent to the doctors OF
Eldora for examination. We every
day have incontestible proof that the
land below us forty feet was in the
unknown past no prairie country, for
whenever walls are sunk whereabouts
the men have to push their way
through stumps of trees and branch
es of cedar and pine"

A Woman Who has a Mission.

We state a fact: There is q young
woman in Wisconsin who has a mis-.
sion. She hasn't been all over the
country either, talking about spheres
and the ballot, slavery and divorces T;
and yet, on our honor, she has mis-
sion or something, we are not sure
what we ought to call it: Othello
would call it an occupation, and SO
will we.
Seriously, it would be most pleas
to give her name to the public; but
that could do the public little good,
and might not be agreeable to her.
She is the daughter OF mechanic in
one of the Furnishing towns of the
state. She has had good education
even better than the average Of
those who fill the teachers position
among Us, and when we'll grown to
TO- anhoJd she entered her fathers
mop add learned TO paint aud finish
furniture. She is now o skilltull me,
chaolc, and acting as the foreman
fore woman, rather, of @ furniture fac
tory. This is not all When she be-
gan to learn her trade, helpless young
women IN the neighborhood Haunted
their curls and said it wasn't the
thing at all. They wouldn't be
caught at it. Now several of such,
eachers from the schools, young
.onen also who have graduated in.
70 the mllllner's art, have applied for
apprenticeships under her, and have
been denied for want Of room. In
deed, such applications are three
times as great as the demand for
them. Nor IS this all. The adven>
ture which has made her an indepen-
dent mechanic has taken effect in
other portions Of the state, and now
no less than three furniture estab.
lishments employ women, either in
whole Or in part, in their finishing
rooms, and fad them highly trust
worthy and skilfuI. The young lady
to whom we particularly refer is
considered equal to the most ready
workmen in any department Of the
business, does painting, stripping, or
namenting, aud vanishing as we'll as
the best, aud is fully competent to do
anything in the line of her trade.
Call upon her at her work if you
choose, and she will evince no mock
p ldos.y or shame on account of her
business or dress, but will talk free
" and inteligently, show you how
this and that is done, explain the
process of mixing paints, and tell
what the apprentice girls learns east
est and what with most difficulty, all
With degree of intelligence which
will strike you as being rare among
women except on the subject of ba-
bies and dress. So, we repeat, here
is a woman with a mission. Success

something to solve the vexed wom-

A LARGE TUMoR.-Dr. Mason re-.
Gently took an ovarian tumor from
the perso1 Of Miss Edwards, of Glen
Haven, Grant county, which weigh
ed seventy pounds. Naturally,
she was of slender built, but be-
fore the operation she measured four
feet and two inches around the waist.
The operation was performed on the
second of March, the wound healing
up remarkably well, and she com
pIetely recovered from the effects of
the operation. On the 18th of March
she was attacked with a diarrhea of
the most aggravated form which re-
suited in otal prostration, from the
effects of which she died on the goth
ut. Miss Edwards was nineteen
years Of age she had been afflicted
with the tumor about two years.

For a Few Persons to Read.

Don't make q fool Of yourself by
getting mad when q bill is presented
TO you. There is nothing wrong in
it. Hundreds and thousands of men
quite as goou as yourself have had
bills presented TO them and did not
feel insulted thereby. Even If there
is mistake in the bill, it is better
TO ask calmly tor an explanation
than to get into a towering rage
about it and threaten the withdraw al
of your patronage. The best of men
make mistakes mistakes sometimes,
and there is few in business who will
not cheerfully correct mistake and
thank you for pointing it out. If
you can't pay when your bill is pre-
sented, and the fault is yours, then
you ought to feel angry with your
selt-but there is no more eense in
getting mad on the presentation of a
bill than to fly into a passion when
your neighbor extends TO you the
compliments of the season. 1t ex-
poses weakness which is not COM
mendablo in any one.-Er.

sS-A Danbury young man, who

farm to work. The first night in his
new position he was detailed to re-
move calf from the apartment of
its parent to another shed, and while
engaged, as thousands have been be-
fore him, in showing the animal
along, the mother reached uuder the
tails of his coat with her horns, and
suddenly lifted him up against the
roof of the building with force that
threatened to shGtter every bone 10
his body, The first thing he did on
returning to earth was to rub him.

his place. He said he didn't doubt

~Late European files show thu

GE Late European files show that
President Grants message, in which
be aludes TO the tendency OF modern
society toward republican institu-
ton, has raised storm Of angry but
weak protests in all the organs of
monarchical government. The fact is
too unpleasantly true for kings or
their adherents TO care to see it re-
cognized by the ruler of great ma
ton, and they naturally feel uncom-
Portable when the disaffected OF their
own country find such authoritative
support outside. The message will
do much good in calling the attention
of rulers and ruled to the real march
of modern feeling, and will force up
on the most minimizing serious con-
siderations as to the future Of Europe.
