Laughter as a Medicine

A gentleman was suffering from an. .nl-
,cerated sore throat, which finally be-
came SO swollen that his. life was. de-
SPARED OF, when his, household came to
HIS bedside to bid him. farewell. Each
person grasped his hand tor moment
and then turning went out weeping. A
pet ape, which had 'modestly waited till
the last, then advancing and grasping
his masters hard for an instant, also
turned and went away with his hands to
his eyes. This assumption OF deep grief,
which it is, hardly possible the animal
could have felt, SINCE it could scarcely
have comprehended the problem OF NOR
tality there so powerfully presented to
the human mind, was SO ludicrousei in its
perfection, that the patient himself was
seized with an uncomfortable fit Of
laughter, which broke the ulcer in his
throat, whereby his lie was saved.

How to Pet the canaries.

Says a writer on canaries: In this
way i answer the question .sHow / iati
such luck with the brdsP" Simply b.,
allowing the birds to attend to their 0w Ii
affairs, and b. letting them understanG
that their mistress would never harm
them. Also by accustoming them to
plenty OF light, air and cympany, rathe
than is advertised In books, kep ping the
cage in a dark room tor fear Of irighten-
ing the birds. Make just about half the
fuss directed In bird books over the
matter, and you will have, doubtless,
better success in raising birds. Nevei
give them sugar, but all the red pepper
they will eat; ii 10 the best thing TO-,
them. And IL y, ur bird feels hoarse at any
time put a piece OF fat pork in his cage
and see how the little fellow will enj0,
1t. Give him fax-seed once in q while,
and il he appears dumpy occasionally
give diet OF bread and water, with red
pepper sprinkled In. Open the cage door
and give your pets tie freedom OF the
room; soon they will come at your cal
and fly TO meet you when your voice Is
heard. ] had one who came regularly to
my desk as L sat writing each day, anu
disputed with fiutteriug wing and open
beak my humbae right to the ink-stand.
He would take his bath as / held the
cup in my hand, and cooily dry himself
On my head. Another would fly down or
Mp stars to me whenever I called him.
and many time wnen l have been out
be has welcomed my return by flying
down she stairs and singing at the top OF
his voice all the while, until at last,
perched on my shoulders he would ac-
company me TO my room.

DISBURSEMENTS of the State Treasury fc1 the
Year 1875.

From Sundays Clarion.l
From the report of Treasurer
Hemingway, We have copied the
subjoined statement of disbursr-
ments of the state treasury for the
fiscal year 1875. 1t will be seen
that several items arc enormously
heavy. For example, the peniten-
tiary, lunatic asylum and executive
department. For the Judi
diary, 1905, 267 were paid; for the
public printing. sS2,00O-comment
is unnecessary; but wait and con-
trast the expenditure under this
head with the expenditure of 1876
There will be a signal reduction on
account of the Judiciary when the
reform bill which has passed the
Legislature is put into operation.
For the purpose OF
comparison it would be well to file
away this table, shown. the dis
bursements of the state treasury
under the several heads of account
during the fiscal year 1875:

While we have no desire whatcv-
or To gainsay the efficiency of our
Di>irict-Attorney or in the least de
tract from his merits, we must at
tribute the whDlcS ale conviction of
criminal, before the ha- of our pres
1nt term ut court, i'll a measure to
the fact that our people are tired of
,lImc and are determined to put 4
stop to it. II the fact is once cstab-
iiShed that offenders and violators
II the law cannot escape punish
meat when brought before Il jury of
their countrymcn it will not be long
healthy state of morals. Let the
courts of the country take cogni-
lance Of and punish crimes of every
grade and thereby hold up the ter
rors of the penalty of violated law,
AMI crime will diminish and crimi
mails become less. On the other hand,
let the courts pursue a loose course,
let. criminals, from Il lack OF just
punishment, feel that they arc IL
ccnscd to commit violence and fraud
and we may expect all manner OF
lawlesSncss to exist. There is no
surer way to raise up race OF
thieves and malfactors than unbri-
died license to commit crime. There
is no surcr way OF creating subjects
for future investigation on account
of crooked official transactions, tax
ing of brides, pardoning criminals,
shielding official dcfaulters and The
like, Than 10 hold loose rcins over
the perpetrators of minor offences.
II man feels licensed to commit
petit larceny, if he escapes punish
mcnt therefor, it is encouragement
to him TO commit graver crimes.
We are glad to notice the app.rant
awakening OF our people to the
necessity of furnishing offenders
against the law. God knows, it is
high time, and had greater decree
of vigilance and earnestness in that
direction obtained at Washington,
Belknap would not now be disgrace
ed and the American people made
to blush at tho onormity of his
crime.

GET NO GUILTY MAN ESCAPE. THE
SAFE BURGLARY BUSINESS TO
BE SIFTED.
The confession of Nettleship, one
of the safe burglary conspirators,
is likely to lead TO the indictment
of several prominent members OF
the district ring. This confession
has TINS far been carefully guarded
by District Attorney Wells, who
admitted, in his testimony given to
the Judiciary Committee of the
House, on Saturday, that he had
promised Nettlcship immunity from
prosecution in return for his testi-
mony. Those most familiar with
this case believe that, if the whole
truth is discovered, it will implicatc
two or three men who were,
at the time of the burglary, public
officers; besides others who were
Interested in the District investiga-
ton. If Harrington is shown to
have been one of tho cCnspirators,
as he probably was, 1t is believed
that he will prove to have been SIM
ply an agent, and not one of the
principals. The committee are con-
Quoting the investi cation IN secret ,
and, in this way, hope to get to the
bottom facts. a large number of
witnesses have been summoned TO
appear before them this week, in
Guiding several persons in New
York, Newark and Boston. Mr..
Proctor Knott, the chairman of the
committee, says that this invc>tisa-
ton will be deeper than the last,
and that he is determined TO "lct no
