DIDN'T STAND THE TEsr.-A young
man read in a paper few days ago
that if you wanted to find out if the
woman you had selected for your fu-
ture spouse had good temper you
ought to take occasion to step on her
dress, or snap the sticks of her fan, on
in some way annoy or discompose her.
eff" said the great authority who pre-
sides over the column of advice, "she
betrays no sign of ill-timper, she will
prove model wife," Accordingly
the young man seized an opportunity
when his sweetheart was rugged III
her most killing array to step on her
trail and pull out about three yards of
gathers, with rid like a peal of thun-
der, exposing about three-quarters of
the frame work that makes her dress
stick out behind. But instead of
the accident with perfect
equanimity, she turned round and
jabbed her parasol in his eye, called
him long-haired leper, and asked him
why he didn't wear his feet sideways.
He expressed himself thankful that he
didn't marry the girl before finding
out what sort of a temper she had;
but the doctor doesn't think his eye
will grow out again.

her way home again, when her rela-
tlves took her to see DR.. Cote. Her
experience with physicians had
aroused a feeling of distrust and aver
sion of the profession, aud she was
very loath to put herself under treat
ment At that time-it was in Sep
tember last-she had not eaten any
thing but few morsels of candy since
the July before. Her case excited the
Doctors greatest interest He at
once made diagnosis, and after much
persuasion induced her to agree to re-
main in the city, under his care for
few weeks, so that he might have an
opportunity of fairly beginning the
work of restoration This she agreed
to do, and that was the last the phy-
sician ever saw Of her. When he
called at the house where she had
been stopping, on the following day,
the family had gone.
Reasoning from the examination
that he had time to make, DIR. Cote
arrived at the conclusion that the
girls trouble was in her nervous sys-
TEN. The diagnosis was sufficiently
thorough to convince him of that,
though the particular cause Of the de-
rangement of the nerves he did not
have an opportunity to determine,
Her existence for so long a period,
despite the suspension of the vital
functions of her nature, was of course
a matter demanding careful investiga.
tion, and the sudden departure of the
girl was a source of painful disap
oointment to the physician. The pop
llar impression that person so situa-
ed existed upon his or her fatty tis-
sues, the doctor said, was a mistaken
one. Life was preserved by absorb
ion through the cellular tbs. ues.
1t has transpired that after leaving
his city the girl put herself in care of
Dr. Martin, of Philadelphia, but it is
aid that there has been little improve
nent in her condition. Now here is
he most astounding fact in the whole
:ase: The girl is still alive, and her
appetite has not been restored. Her
External appearance has undergone
title perceptible change, but she has
so weak as to be confined to
er house.

A STRANGE STORY.
'[From the Pittsbarg (Pa.) Telegraph, Jan. q

/
The patient in this case is young
lady, of fine form and great beauty O
face, whose home is in the vicinity Of
Greensburg. Her story is of such al
extraordinary character as to appear
incredible, were it not vouched for by
professional gentlemen of unimpeach-
able veracity. Dr. Cote, of Penn. Ay.
enue, above Ninth street, was the
first physician here whose attention
was directed to the case. For obvi-
GUS reasons the name Of the young Ia
.dy cannot be mentioned. She is, how
ever, described as being about twen-
ty-two years of age, the picture of
health, and weighing $50 pounds.
The exceptional character of this
veritable description will be apprecia-
ted when it has been said that for
three months before the time that an
opportunity was presented to describe
her she had not eaten morsel of
food.
This startling abstinence seemed to
have no external effect. The girls
complexion was bright and clear, and
her splendid physique carried with it
the irresistible impression that no in
sidious disease could have lodgment
in that fair tenement. But the fair
external was terrible illusion. She
was so weak that it was a work of
the most painful character for her to
drag her weary limbs after her. Her
story was calculated to intensity,
rather than to clear away, the mys-
terry of her rare affliction. She did
not have the slightest idea of proba-
bic cause for her suffering. She was
not sick. She had neither pains ror
aches. She did not suffer from hun
ger. She had not the slightest desire
% eat. The cessation of appetite had
oeen sudden and absolute. No pre-
symptoms of disease were
manifested before the strange ailment
seized her.
1t was in July last that she first
passed a whole day without eating.
The day before her appetite, SO far as
he could remember, was as usual.
She did not eat for a week, and her
amily became alarmed.
All known specifics to provoke an
appetite were tried without effect, and
% the second week passed. In this
arly stage of the disease the young
ady lost little of her vitality, and this
act seemed to reassure her anxious
riends. But when the weeks extend
d into months, and there was no ap-
aren't change in the young girls con- :
ition, except that she daily grew $
weaker, the most serious apprehen-
ions were aroused. AS may we'll be !,
things were not permitted !
) get to this pass without directing
ne attention of physician to the |
ase. Extreme measures were not re- /
orted to until the girl had been a
lonth without eating. Without in
ending to cast the slightest reflection /
pom the skill of the practitioner who :
. to that time had charge of the case,
may be said that it was quite be- .
ond his grasp. Experiments, almost !
'ithout number, were unavailingly re- :
9rted to, and as a sort of forlorn hope
ectricity was called into service. I
While all these experiments were use d
IS for good, they were productive of Q
uch suffering to the despairing pa b
ent. Finally she refused to longer
inject herself to torture, and resigned
erself to her fate.
A change Of scene was recommend :

An Old Man Who Has Seen Life.

The Dayton Soldiers Home has an
inmate with a wonderful history, in
William A. j. Mcclure, now in his
107th year. He was born in New Jer-
sey, and from his fifteenth to thirteth
year was in the merchant service, Wis
iting nearly every port in the world.
In 1904, he turned trapper to the Ohio
River, and finally enlisted in the army,
being captured at Hull s surrender and
taken to Dartmoor Prison, but was
freed in time to fight at Lundy's Lane.
under Gen. Scott, and got seven
wounds. When forty-seven, he saved
woman from drowning at Charles
ton, 5. G., and married her, but she
died at New Orleans, three years after,
when he served as scout for Gen. Jack
son in Florida. Then he went to sea
again, was wrecked in the Mediter-
ranean and, with seven others, was
captured and enslayed by the Arabs,
bat was bought and freed by the
American Consul. Byron died, about
this time, and the rowing to-be centen-
arian entered the Greek service, and
after while into the marine under
Admiral Rogers, then served in the
Seminole War, then in the MexicanWar
under Rogers; going TO sea again was
wrecked in the Albion on the Irish
coast, and was one Of the nine saved
from that Inflated crew. He naturally
tired of the sea, went West, and was,
for many years, mail carrier between
Cincinnati and Lexington, Ky, mar
rowly escaping death from cholera.
For the past twenty years he has lived
in Missouri, where he married three
more wives, having twenty-five chill
dren, only three Of whom survive.

junior, died III 1871. aged forty Tho

That Majority.

The Democrats have much to say about
Tilden's popular majority OF the whole
vote cast We have often pointed out
that the entire alleged major y was found
in the four States of Geors,., Mississippi,
Texas and Alabama, where the colored
Republicans, utterly overawed and dis
couraged, absented themselves from the
polls and let the election go by default
But it the votes cast in the Republican
States are credited 10 Hayes, aud those
cast in the Democratic States are credited
to Iilden, we have this result:
