a History of the Fan,

a curious little volume has Just appear
ed, giving the history of fans among all
nations and at all periods. The author,
NJ. Blondel, who has been able to examine
many rare recollections, states that it first
came from the cast, where it is always &C.
companied by fly-nap and parasol. The
former is made of a tail of the Thibetian
buffalo, white as snow, and of which the
extremity is a tuft of hair in the form of a
| plume. Fans of feathers, recently in fash
ion, date from the seventh century. They
were first used in China, where the En-
peror Hao Tsong, having heard the cry of
pleasant, supposed to be an auspicious-
sign, ordered fan to be made shaped like
the tail of that bird According to the
author of the "Etudes Asiatques," that ar
ticle had more than one singular use on it
the rich deposited the aims which they
| gave to the poor the great received on it

ence the mobiles carried IT to court, and it
served to cool them from the heat of the
day, and to accuse them while waiting III
the antechamber, it was the instrument of
punishment of the schoolmaster, and at the
same time was given as reward. A fan

which he held out his hands to receive the

In England there is one lawyer for every
1910 of the population in France, one for
every 1870; in Belgium, one for every
2700; and in Prussia, one for every 12, 900
only. Another curious fact is that in Eng
land the number of persons belonging to
each of the different professions is nearly
the same. Thus there are 34,S70 lawyers,
80, 4S3 clergymen and 50, 99j physicians.
In Prussia, on the other hand, there are
1900 physicians to only 1862 lawyers.
A verdict of $3.50 and costs has just been
rendered in the supreme court at Troy to
Mrs. Elizabeth Blondin against George AL
bertson, proprietor of saloon in Congress
street, Troy, for damages sustained in con-
sequence of the continual sale Of liquor to
her husband
Among the curious cases entered at the
present term of the Washington county
court was one entitled Charles L. White
as. town of Marshfeld. Plaintiff, who is
said to be now aresident of Boston, averred
that In November, 1878, he was taken sick
with the smallpox at Marshfield that he
informed the selectmen of his condition
and demanded his removal to a remote
place, and the provision of suitable medical
attendance and nursing; that they wholly
neglected him, and neither removed him or
provided any care, and forbade physi-
clan entering his house; that IN conse-
quepce Of this neglect on their part, he was
compelled to remain in the same house with
his wife and four children three weeks his
wife and children were not vaccinated till
it was too late, and they caught the dis
ease ; that three of the children, Eva, De
Eta, and Joel, died, and his wife was hor-
ribly SCARED and disfigured. For his cares
and anguish of mind, plaintiff claimed
damages of the town at $4,000. Messrs.
Gleason & Field, attorneys rhe defend
ant through its attorney, Mr. S. c. Shurt-
left, demurred to the sulllciency of plain
tiff's declaration, on the ground that the
town could not be made liable for the neg
ligence of its selectmen, and the demurrer
was sustained. Exceptions by plaintiff.

all those that attended them, there can be
no doubt. They were actively supported
by the pastors of the three churches in
wiling them. On Sunday afternoon and
evening, Bethany church was filed with
large and profoundly interested audiences.
Nearly thousand were present on each
occasion. The meetings on Friday, in the
Baptist church, and on Saturday in Trinity
church, were fully attended and were very
instructive. The Bible service of Mr. Da-
Wis was exceedingly happy. We are con-
fident that these meetings, while not SEN

Judgments and convictions of those who
went into them. We wish these young
men great success in their noble work. -

The Best Evidence.

The following letter from Rev. T. s. Best,
Pastor or the M. Il. church, Natick, Mass, VIII
be read with interest by many physicians; also
those suffering from the same disease as
AFFLICTED the son or the REV. K. s. Best. No
person can doubt this testimony, as there is no
doubt about the curative power OF VEGETlNE.
NATICK, MASS, Jan. 1st., 1873.
MIR. II. X. STEVENS: .-
Dear Strive have good reason for regarding
your VEGETlNE medicine OF the greatest
value We feel assured that IL has been the
means OF saving our sons life. He Is now
seventeen years OF age; for the last Two years
he has suffered from necrosis OF his leg, caused
by scr0ful0us affection, and was so FAR reduced
that nearly all who saw him thought his recov-
cry impossible. A council OF able physicians
could give us but the faintest hope OF his ever
rallying; two OF the number declaring that ne
was beyond the reach OF human remedies, that
even amputatlon could not save him, as he had
not vigor enough TO endure the operation. just
then we commenced giving him vEGETlNE,
and from that time TO the present he has been
continuously improving. lie has lately re-
sumed studies, thrown away his crutches and
cane, and walks about cheerfully and strong.
Though there Is still some discharge from the
opening where the limb was lanced, we have
the fullest confidence that in a little time he
Will be perfectly cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles OF
VEGETlNE but lately uses hut little, US he dc.
clares he is too well 10 be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,

AnecdOte of Col. BOutVciI-Why he
wore u wig.

In giving remencenses of Col Lew
Boutwell,, noted man in his day, Mont
pelier. VT, writer, tells the following
story:
The Colonel was uncommonly bald, and
without his heavy dark wig looked not a
bit like himself. Once he was in the wash
room of the pavilion and for convenience
of his additions had laid his wig aside.
Presently a young spruce chap, with ex-
tremely red hair, came in. Noticing the
Colonel's nuce head, he, inquired;
Well, Colonel why don't you have some
hair on your headr
TWAS an impudent question and the Col
onel knew it. Looking savagely on the
red head of the saucy young stranger, he
replied:
When they made me and had me all
finished except my hair, they told
me they had nothing lett except red
hair. told them then, egad wouldn't
have any; would rather go without; they
might save that for impudent young pop
injays and fools.
The young inquisltive and joker was
perfectly willing to drop the subject.

The meetings which were held in this
