Disguised Tramps.

A couple OF tramps waylaid awealthy
in Louisa County last Wednes-
cay, and, springing out upon him, de-
lnanded his money or his life. He
showed them a clean pair of heels and
they went at it. They chased him half
d mile down the toughest lane they
ever stumbled over, then the whole
crowd dashed through a briar hedge
and went painting and swearing across
a cornfield, then the chase struck for
the woods and went wheeling up a
steep hill while the tramps pressed hard
after him with bloodshot eyes and
shortened breath; then the farmer
dashed across a frozen creek, and the
tramps, following, broke through, but
got out and chased the fugitive through
a blackberry patch, across a f%orty-acre
stubble-field, over another hill, down a
~ravine, across a stump field, and finally
they overhauled him in the road, search
ed him, and found that he didn't have a
nickel; not a solitary red cent. And if
they weren't the naddest tramps.-

A Wisconsin Deer Story.

The Milwaukee Sentinel has a cor
respondent who writes: SWalt1ng for
a train at the Northwestern Depot, the
other day, the Sentinel reporter, hay
ing, with his usual modesty, shrunk
in o a corner, heard Capt. Bones, & well
known hunter, telling his story to a
small but. interested audience, compos-
ed chiefly of Tom St. George: did
you ever hear how Bill Shepard shot
seven deers out of n drove? It
was a still, cloudy day, and there were
two feet or more of snow on the ground.
There was just an even dozen in the
herd, and Bill had got behind a big log
within ten rods of them. He had to
snake a hole through the snow on the
log to get sight. He got all ready,
picked out the biggest one, and blazed
away. 1t was a big buck, and dropped
to the shot. Well, you know if 3 deer
can't see or scent you he won't run,
and you a keep on shooting as long
as you like. So when Bill dropped
the first one, the rest just scattered
and came right back together
again. He showed in another
cartrid &c, picked out the biggest one
again, and he tumbled, too. Bill put a
third cartridge down, picked out the
biggest one again, and he dropped to
the shot. By this time Bill was pretty
well excited He had only four car
tridges left, but he kept as cool as posi-
BILE, picked out the biggest every time
and fetched him. When he had fired
his last shot, he sat and watched 'em a
long time, but finally he had to show
himself and the balance of the deer left.
1t was just about this time the rest of us
came up, and inquired what all the
shooting was about. Bill was feeling
awfully because he hadn't any more
cartridges, but he swore he'd got seven
deer any way. We went over to see.

How to Cure SIeeplessness.
Thousands suffer from wakefulr

Thousands suffer from w~akefulness
who are otherwise in good health. To
some of them this becomes a habit, and
too often a growing one. Some resort
to soporifc drugs, and this is how the
opium crave is often initiated. Others
find wine or spirits occasionally effect
ual, and are thus induced to take alco-
hol every night, and not a few, it is to
be feared, have in this way laid the
foundation of intemperance. There
have, however, never been wanting
people who have found a way of going
to sleep without resort to such meas
ures. The mesmerists at n time were
popular, and from them q host of peo-
pie learned that looking at any fixed
point steadily would often succeed in
inducing sleep. In the dark, however,
this is not so easy; but this difficulty
was not felt in Braidism, which con-
sisted merely in closing the eyes and
trying to think they were watching at
tentively the stream of air entering ana
leaving the nostrils. It was asserted
that whoever would will to see this
stream as if it were visible would lnfai-
libby soon fall asleep. We have known
the plan succeed, and it is evidently the
same in principle as fixing the attention
on any single visible object. Another
plan has just reached us, proposed by
an American physician-Dr. Cooke.
who tells us that in numerous cases OF
sleeplessness it is only necessary to
breathe very slowly and quietly for a
few minutes to secure refreshing sleep.
He thinks that most cases depend on
hyphramia of the brain, and that ia
this slow breathing the blood supply is
lessened sufficiently to make an i'm
preston. Certainly when the mind is
unc~ontrollably active, and SO preventing
sleep, we have a~scertained from pa
tents whose observation vas worth
trusting that the breathing was quick
and short, and they have found they
became more disposed to sleep by
breathing slowly. This supports DR..
Cookies practice, but at other times his
plan quite failed. 1t is certainly worth
any ones while who is occasionally
~sleepless to give it q trial" IN doing so
they should breathe very quietly, rath-
er deeply and at intervals, but not long
enough to u the least feeling of un-
easiness. In fine, they should initiate
d person sleeping, and do it steadily
for several minutes.--MedgcG5 ECGnn-

Among the most exquisite scenes which
delight the eye of the European traveller are
those wonderful rose-colored cloud PLANNERS,
noating from the Alpine cliffs. But it is
only in the sunlight that Nature hangs out
these beautiful tokens. So it is only in the
glow OF health-the sunlight of ourinner be-
mg-thatnature reveals those physical cloud
banners, the "rosy cheek'' and CHERRY
lip" opraise which every poet of the earth
has invoked the Muse to aid him. But they
are as rare as the cynical Hood conceived
Christian charity to be. Woman, eager to
retain this charm, resorts to French art and
rouge. Tn effect is similar to that which
would be produced by substituting auc-
tioneers' flags for the delicate glowing cloud
banners of the Alps. If woman would aid
Nature instead of adopting art, would seek
health instead of vainly trying to mask dis
ease, she would not only win the greatest
charm OF Observation-Disclosures she
would avert much misery both from herself
and Others. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton has received the highest praise from
thousands of pale, delicate, suffering women.
One bottle often affords more relief than
months of treatment by caustics and other
medicines. 1t is harmless in any condition
of the system, and its use often renders the
modest invalid exempt from that most try
ing OF ordeals-a personal consultation with
a physician. 1t is the duty of every woman
to become familiar with the causes and
symptoms of the many diseases to which her
peculiar organization renders her liable, and
also 10 learn the proper means of preventing
these maladies. The Peoples Medical Id
wiser contains an extensive treatise upon
Woman and her Diseases" The Author
also advises courses OF domestic treatment,
which will often rend er the services of
physician unnecessary. Every woman should
read it. A copy of the Adviser can be OBJ
tanned by addressing the Author, DR.. r. V.
Pierce, at Buffalo, NY. Price $3.50 (postage
prepaid). Favorite Prescription is sold by
druggists.

Sending Portraits by Telegraph.

The Paris correspondent OF the Lon

said that the science of telegraphy is as
yet only in its infancy. What it will
be when it reaches the age of maturity
it would be difficult to say with certain

an extraordinary teleg graphic discovery
just made in Paris. It appears that
some inventor has found out the means
of sending portraits by telegraph. The

The snow was nightly tramped down,
sure enough, but there vas only one
deer-a big buck. There wasn't the
least trace of the other six, every one of
which Bill saw drop to the shot. Then
we went up and looked at the one he
got, and as sure as you're born he had
seven bullets in him. Bill had shot the
same one every shot. He would fall
and then jump up again, and, being the
biggest one, Bill picked him out every
time.n

-Elkanah Ingalls, and his wife were
suffocated at Providence, R. L. 1t ap-
pears that they had left a lighted lamp
on the bureau on going to bed. When
the police, attracted by smoke, entered
the house, the top of the bureau was
entirely charred. The smoke had

Austria should have been assisted, and
you should have marched on the Rhine
and imposed your conditions. To allow
Austria's throat to be cut was more than
