in the mountains north of that place with

covered they began to call, expecting her
10 whistle. lthe manner in which she used
10 rcply) but in place of a whistle they
heard a voice away off-telling them that
it was her They would not go back, as
they thought it was some person trying to
fool them. Finally the voice pleaded for
them to come back They complied and
imagine their astonishment when they came
back and fund their sister with her power
Of speech restored She related that in
StooJing, something had got into her throat
which nearly choked her, when violent
vomiting took place and in few moments
she elected from her throat a cartilaginous
tube about four inches in length and re-
senb.ing scraped intestine Since this
strange occurrence she has enjoyed perfect
control over the vocal organs.-C Centre

THE Laramie Sentinel says: Six years
ago Mrs Mary Ahart was living in little
tent on the edge Of the town. Her whole
worldly possessions consisted Of this tent, a
straw bed, two or three boxes which served
IS chairs and table, little seven or eight
year old girl, and two cows and calves. She
s)ld the spare milk of these two COWS, car
rying it around town with a tin pail, and
with the product, and from work which she
did for her neighbors, supported herself
and child. When she could get three or
FIVE dollars ahead she would buy another
calf or yearling. 1t is not our purpose to
trace her progress up to the present time
but the result is that now, in
less than seven years, she has several hun
dred head Of cattle, fine farm with nice
buildings and improvements, comfortable,
oven luxuriant home, and instead of carry
lng milk around by hand, rides in her own
carriage. Her daughter is young lady,
educated and accomplisheded. To dry Mrs.
Aharts property is valued at from $40, GOO
to $4,000. And she has made it all by
nc honest industry and good management.
She has never had Government contract
Or teIl heir to any property.
