His Ear in His Pocket.

Yesterday small boy with his head
bandaged entered a bookstore and said
he wanted to buy some school books. As
the clerk was waiting on him he inquired
the reason why his customers head was
tied up in such shape.
"Oh,' responded the boy, in matter
of-fact way, "a horse bit off my ear this
morning"
"Non said the clerk, doubtingly;
"what was the trouble, anyway
@ | tell you he did bite it off, the lad
said, with some warmth, and L can
prove it too. Just you look here now"
and reaching down into his pocket he
drew forth a wad of newspaper soaked
with blood and slapped it down on the
counter. A crowd formed around the
little fellow, who with great gravity and
pardonable air of triumph proceeded
to unwrap the unsavory mass. Then he
pulled forth a CHASTITY relic in the shape
of human ear, evidently torn out by
the roots. "There, didn't | tell you SOP
he cried, exultingly. "He fetched it off
at the first nip" The boy gave his name
as Eagan, and said he lived on the Clapp
farm. While working in the barn the
horse reached his head over the side of
the stall. caught the little fellows ear in
his teeth and ehewed it off. Having thus
delivered himself, the lad carefully re-
wrapped his precious ear, thrust 1t in his
pocket and departed.-OH City Derrick.

Dubois heard the order. and saw the
necessity. Here was danger enough.
surely; and, determined to be the first
at the fatal battery, he kept az near to
the leader as he dared. Half the dis
lance ne had gained, when from the hill
CAME storm OF iron that plowed into
the ranks of the French. The colonel
fell, his body literally torn in pieces by
a she'll that exploded against his bosom.
Inc point upon the peninsula now
reached by the assaulting column was
not more than one hundred yards wide
and it was literally a path of death. as
the fire OF twelve heavy guns was turned
upon it.
The colonel had fallen, and very soon
three other officers went down, leaving
the advance without a commissions d
leader. The way was becoming blocked
up with dead men and dead horses, and
wavered.
Marshal Lefebvre, from his elyated
place, saw this, and his heart thrbobed
painfully. Ii that column were routed,
and the Russian infantry charged over
the peninsula, the result might be ca
amitOus.
But-see! A man in the uniform of
French private, mounted upon pow
erful horse, caparisoned in the trappings
OF Prussian staff officer, with his head
bare, and bright saber swinging in his
hand, rushes to the front and urges the
column forward. His words are fiery
and his look is dauntless.
For France and LefebvreI" the
strange horseman cries, waving his
sword aloft, and pointing toward the
battery. "The marshal will weep if we
lose this day!"
The brave troopers thus led by one
who feared not to dash forward where
the shot fell thickest, gave an answering
shout, and pressed on, caring little for
the rain of death so long as they had a
living leader to follow. Hoping that he
might take the battery, and yet counting
death, Jerome Dubois spurred on, and
| finally the troop came upon the battery
with irresistible force.
1t was not in the power of the can
noneers to withstand the shock, and the
Russian infantry that came to their sup
port were swept away like chat. The
battery was quickly captured, ana when
the guns had been turned upon those
who had shortly before been their mas
tiers, the fortune of the day was decided.
The Russians and the Prussians-
horse, foot and dragoons-such as were
not taken prisoners, made the best of
their way back into Dantzic, having lost
much more than they had gained
Jerome Dubois returned to the guard
house, and gave himself up to the officer
in charge. First surgeon was called
to dress several slight wounds which he
had received. Next, his colonel was
called to see what should be done with
him. The colonel applied to the gen
eral of brigade, and the general of bri-
gade applied to the general of division,
and the general eff division applied to
Marshal Lefebyre.
"What shall we do with Jerome
Dubois?"
Good bless him!" cried the veteran
general, who had heard the whole story.

I'll promote himi

Economy in Fuel

Some of US Americans think we know
what economy means, but it is mistake.
We don't know the first principle of the
art. In the matter of food, for instance,
Americans and English are both inor-
dinately wasteful, even when they think
they are very careful. In one day an
ordinary cook viii consume more fuel
and produce less good dinners than a
French cook viii in a month of superb
cooking. A Paris correspondent writes:
Count Rumford laid down practical
rules by which dinner for l ,0O0persons
could be excellently well cooked and
served at cost of only ten cents. Now
this process is improved upon, and din
ner for !, 800 persons can be well cooked
at a fuel expense of five cents. Not by
gas; that is a wasteful expense-but by
the carbonated refuse of the gas house,
known as coke. This coke is placed in
a peculiarly constructed stove, which
permits none of the fumes TO pass into
any other place than the closed chimney.
The coke is generated into brilliant
fire at first by a powerful draft, then
toned down as per the wants Of the cook
by mechanical damper. At this point
all the odor Of the gas is gone, and moth
ing but a clear fire, minus smell or dust.

The Laboratory Of the system.


The stomach is the laboratory of the

alyzed by dyspepsia, blood manufacture is
carried on imperfectly, the circulation
grows thin and sluggish, and the system.
suffers in consequence. Moreover, indi
gestion reacts upon the liver and bowels
rendering the first sluggish and the latter
constipated. The brain also suffers by
sympathy, and sick headaches, sleepless-
ness and nervous symptoms are engen
dered. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters re-
forms this state of things, gives permanent
tone and regularity to the stomach and its
associate organs, the bowels and'liver, and
ensures complete nourishment and in
creased vigor of the system. 1t is the
most popular as well as the most efficient
anti-dyspeptic and tonic in America
