A Singular Case.

Six or seven years ago, says the Fond
du Lac (Wis.) Com monCedlh, the wife
of G.. II. Kelley, then residing in this
city, had the measles. She becare in
sane and dumb, and was sent to the
asylum at Madison, where she remain
ed some months. DR. McDill, who was
in charge Of the institution at the time,
wrote Mr.. Kelley TO visit the asylum.
He did so, and was informed by the
doctor that he was unable to do any
more for his wife, and expressed the
opinion that, as she was in no sense
difficult to manage, he had better take
her home. After returning home, Mrs.
Kelley improved very rapidly, and, in
the course OF three months, seemed To
be free from insanity, but still remain
ed perfectly dumb. Mr.. Kelley was
foreman for the late J. A. Archibald, in
death removed TO Sheboygan Falls. He
has resided there two or three years
Now comes the strange part Of the case.
A short time since, Mr.. kelley's house
caught fire. Mrs. X. was in the house
alone at the time. She ran with all
haste to neighbor's, and announced
that the house was on fire, and asked
for assistance in putting out the flames.
Il his was the first time she had spoken
word in six or seven years. The peo-
pie whom she addressed were more
alarmed at her taking than they were
at the fire. From that day Mrs. Kelley
has talked without difficulty. At first
her voice was different from what il was
before she became dumb, but II is fast
changing. There is much rejoicing in
that family. We saould state that
their home was saved from destruction.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kelley are thankful for
that fire.

An Amusing Scene on Board nm Amer.
an-Bound Steamer.

The denoucment Of an extraordinary
elopement case took place ON board the
Allan steamer Morayian, previous Ia
her last departure from Liverpool for
Portland. Just as me got under way,
river gig was seen approaching in all
haste. In the bow of the boat was seen
an aged man, who gesticulaied fran
tically 10 those on board the steamer 10
stop. The boat got alongside the
steamer, and in a short time two Of its
occupants man about sixty Years Of
age, and Young man Of twenty-five
clambered ON board the MOrayian. The
officers were naturally surprised AZ see
ing the steamer boarded in this uncere-
monious fashion; but, noticing that the
old man was in trouble, they received
him courteously, and listened 70 his
tale, which was to the effect that his
wife-whosc name was Emily Ander-
son, lady Of forty-eight, and the
mother Of grown-up childrcn-had
eloped with a young man Of twenty
two, named Ransom that they We're on
board the Moravian en route for Amer
lea; and the deserted husband and his
son, young man Of twenty two, de-
manded the captain TO send the run
aways on shore. While the captain
was explaining that the law gave him
no such power, the runaway wife hap
pened 10 pass along the deck where the
group were discussing the point.
She recognized her husband
A fit of repentance seized
her. She at once forgot her new love,
tapI 1nrt thAs..wl.s - sLe.
claiming "Oh, John, are YOU here ?''
she embraced her husband and kissed
him. Her son, too, she ssluted in a most
aflectionate way. But while these pre-
liminaries 10 a reconciliation were 10
inc on, the faithless wife's companion
made his appearance on the scene. and
placidly wanted to know what ..il WAS
all about The deserted husband inn
plored his tickle spouse 10 return 10 her
home in Wednesday,. This She con-
sented To do, but made il a slime yHI nO,l
that the companion IF her flight should
Toe allowed to return with her le hGs-
band accepted the terms thus dictated
The master of the Morayian, seeing that
an arrangement had been come to. IA
cilitated the return 90 the shore of the
troublesome party who had for q time
disturbed the decormm ob-ergcd on
board his steamer. When the party ar
rived al the stage they were jeered hy a
crowd who had heard ~ the strange
elopement and the wonderful r-roncili-
alton. The now happy party needed
not the jibes of the bystanders. Wife
and husband walked arm-in-arm loving
" along the stage, and the " lover" As
if to make atonement for his wrong-do-
ing. walked meekly behind, carrying
the luggage.

A Rainbow Phenomenon.

A correspondent of Mature describes
the rare phenomenon Of rainbow pro-
jected on blue sky, which occurred at
Bristol, Feb. -. A light shower of rain
was falling at the time, from the almost
clear heavens. No clouds were visible
near the zenith, but bordering the hori-
zon all round there were detached
cumuli, and in the northeast the modi-
fications Of the same extended higher.
In the east perfect and moderately
bright rainbow rested for the most part
on background Of azure There were
areas Of thin cluds AZ the vertex and the
extremities Of the bow; but, ~ they
receded, the bow continued equally
bright against the open sky The phe-
nomenon was transient, fading within
ten seconds after il was first observed.
Fifteen minutes after its dissolution, the
left side Of an incomplete bow was seen
in the northeast, covering the clear sky
in the greater part of its space. II was
transient as its predecessor, and was un-
accompanied by rain.

Sick Headache.

This complaint is most liable TO az
feet those who have dark skin, black
hair and eyes, and are troubled with a
confined condition of the system; it is
brought on usually by cold feet, too
much eating, and too little exercise; il
is often brought on by bad cold. II
is not confined TO age, sex, season or
constitution; il sometimes is inherited,
% runs in families" The excess Of bile
in the liver is always the fundamental
cause Of the disease. Its prevention is
as follows Cultivate constant cleanli-
ness of the whole body from toe to
crown; sleep in well-ventilated cham
bers dress so as to never allow cold
chill TO come over you; never allow the
feet to remain uncomfortably cold for
five minutes; spend three or four hours
every day in the open air; never allow
confined condition of the stomach for
single day; eat regularly thrice day
at not less than five hours interval, not
an atom between; avoid coffee, sweet
milk, porter, pork, fats and sugars
for these all tend to engender bilious
state Of the system and coniine your
eatingto fruits, berries, grapes, melons,
coarse bread, lean meats and vegetables.
