LCoNrINuED On NlNCH PAGRI
Helena weekly herald. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1867-1900, 1878-10-17

Miss Lucy A. Osborne, of New Bedford,
whose scalp, right ear, and part of the right
cheek were torn off in September, 1874, by
machinery in which her hair caught, and who
has since been in New York hospital, is
now at home. A new scalp has grown upon
her head from the grating thereon of min
ute bits of skin. The pieces were contributed
from the arms of the hospital surgeons The
total number of pieces used in this operation
was IL, 900. One of the surgeons contributed
from his person ,202 pieces, and another
gave 865. The appearance of the scalp now
is similar to that of healed wound. Of
course there can be no growth of hair there
on. The eyes still present q slightly drawn
appearance. The wounds of the cheek and
ear have been neatly dressed, the former
leaving scarcely scar. In the first of the
grating process bits of skin the size of q
nickle were employed, but not with good sue
cess, and at the suggestion of an English sur
geon much smaller pieces were substituted,
and with excellent results. Miss Osborne is
now twenty two years old.

What Voices Indicate.

There are light, quick, surface voices, that
involuntarily seem to utter the saying, "
won't do to tie to-" The mans word may
assure you of his strength of purpose and re-
liability, yet his tone contradicts his speech.
Then there are low, deep, strong voices,
where the words seem ground out as if the
man owed humanity grudge, and meant to
pay it some day. That mans opponent may
tremble and his friends may trust his strength
of purpose and ability to act. There is the
coarse, boisterous, dictatorial tone, invariably
adopted by vulgar persons who have not
sufficient cultivation to understand their own
insignifcance. There is the incredulous tone,
that is full of covert sneer, or secret 'syou
can't dupe me, sir, intonation. Then there
is winning, beseeching voice that says,
"sycophant' as plainly as is if it uttered the
word. 1t cajoles and fatters you; its words
say, II love you; Iadmire you; you are every
thing that you should be-" Then there is the
tender, musical, compassionate voice, that
sometimes goes with sharp features, and
sometimes with blunt features, but always
with genuine benevolence. If you are full of
affectation and pretense, your voice proclaims
it. If you are cold and calm and firm and
persistent or tickle, and foolish and deceptive.
your voice will be equally truth-telling. You
cannot change your voice from natural to
an unnatural tone without its being known
that you are doing so.-Frank Leslies lNus-
trQted Ncaosp0Der.

THE HORSE AND THE COLT.

TO pastures rich, near brook and quiet shade
noble horse his skittish colt invites,
Who daily in the verdant herbage played,
And frisked and gamboled to his hearts delight,
Abusing to enjoy, as oft is done
BY those with guiding minds and reason blessed.
He ate, he drank, this gddy, thoutless one,
still, in disgust, he seeks in vain for rest.
At length hs father seeking, thus did say:
"T'm sick and tired, dear father; let us 20
To some new fields, where can sport and play;
If stay here I'm doomed to DEATH know.
Here's tasteless grass and trees devoid of shade;
The waters stagnant and the air is dense,
Of lingring sickness I'm indeed afraid
I'll pine and die, unlees we hasten hence"
Good son" replied the father; "be it so;
AS your health fails, of course we have to go;
Your appetite and spirits must be raised"
So off they started, while with joyous bound
The colt was frisky and the old horse tame,
And many miles DER barren maIehy ground
Were passed. till both the colt and horse were lame
To arid spots, with slow and tires0me tread
The colt was brought, where grass nor herb were
found,
Until by thirst and hunger almost dead
The young one sank exhausted to the ground,
AS darkness came the old horse gently said:
"Arise, my son we'll one more effort make"
And through short lanes and by-roads slowly treads
His homeward way, to grass and shade and lake.
He ate he rolled, he frisked from hunger free,
And said: "Oh stay here, father. Spot like this,
Though all the world You search you cannot see. }"
AS morning dawned, and all around he gazcd,
He recognized his brook and quiet shade;
And thus confOunded with remorse amazed,
At once he saw the great mistake he'd made.
And then the old horse said: "YOu see, trust,
How surfeit soon disgusts and soon annOys;
SO when you eat or drink you always must
PdrtGke in moderation to e7ljOy."

Soup.

France has long prided herself on the art
of making soup. She had soup before 9TH
er nations; but within the last twenty-five
years other people have learned to make it,
and in many of our large cities, especially
this one, where Gallo cooks and Gallo cook
cry are quite common, we have soups fully
equal to those of Paris, not excepting the po-
tages of Vefour's or the Vachette- -Brebant
But in minor cities. notably small towns. and
IN the country proper, soup Is little known.
There are hundreds of families in comf0rta.
ole circumstances who never have soup at
dinner, which, without soup is always fail

quo: of what farmers call boiled dinner.
They are not aware how easy it is to pre-

Washee, Washee.
[FrOm the New York Timee.]

From the New York Tines
Most women are so desirous to preserve
their charms that they are constantly resorting
to artificial means, thereby defeating in most
cases the very end they have in view. They
should bear in mind the example and practice
of Diane de Poitiers, the celebrated beauty
and mistress of Henry H., who kept her
freshness and appearance OF youth during
her whole life, which lasted nearly sixty seven
years. At fifty she looked to be not more
than twenty-five, and Brantome, who was q
connoisseur in women, and saw her few
months before her death, declares her to have
been so handsome that the most adamantine
heart could not have been insensible to her
personal facinations. ''When I met her," he
adds, ''she had been riding on horseback,
and she keeps her seat as firmly and graceful
ly as she kept it in early years." Her enemies,
of whom she had many, declared that she re-
tanned her extraordinary charms by practic-
ing the sorcerer's art. The sole necromancy
she employed was uniform amiability, daily
baths, regular habits, and vigorous exercise.
She never used any kind of cosmetic, and
detested artiiciality in all forms. She rose
early every morning, took cold bath. mount
ed her horse, and rode for an hour. If women
of the present day would WOO nature and re-
ject artiice, they would not look old and hag-
gard at forty. There is more virtue in cold
water, sunshine, outdoor exercise, and tran
quill mind than in all the cosmetics and con-
trivances that have ever been made.

stranger nothing replied. At the third sta

told the stranger that he must put his trunk

mrs. Huntley's Diamond cross.
From the San Francisco Call

Judge Louderback yesterday resumed tht
inquiry for the purpose of determining tht
| ownership of valuable diamond cross
claimed by MI. &. c. Huntley, OF Washing
ton, D. c., and Miss Kellogg, of this city
The testimony went to show that several
years ago Mrs. Huntley was presented with q
diamond cross by her mother, and that in
1875 she, with her husband, who is United
States mail contractor, passed through this
city en- route for the Sandwich Islands.
Among their fellow passengers on the stea'
mnon the down trip was Miss Kellogg, who
wAs'then known as Mrs. Harte, wife of q
gentleman of that name who accompanied
her. While at Honolulu Mrs. Huntley was
robbed of her cross. She returned TO her
home minus the sparkling jewel, and a few
weeks ago came here on visit. While walk
ing through Kearney street she discovered
her cross in the window of pawnbroker,
pledged by Miss Kellogg, examined it, and
then sent for detective Jones, who took charge
of it by virtue of search-warrant. When
the, case was called, yesterday, the counsel
for Miss Kellogg objected to the Judge pro-
ceeding further with the inquiry, On the
ground that be had no jurisdiction in the
matter; Counsel for Mrs. Huntley proved
thai, the code gave the court full jurisdiction,
and the examination proceeded. |
Ts. Huntley was recalled she reiterated
what she had previously stated aboutthe loss
ofJhscseaa, and sswore positively that the
01k produced was the one she had stolen
from her. Miss Kellogg testified that the
cross was given to her ~ Mr. Harte Two
weeks after he. 'r6turned. with her frott the
Ialands. HyShe said that he had also presented
her with FIVE diamond Eings,i 2 watch, cl, an and
chain and pair Of bracelets; She became
in need 'of money and pledged The CROSS with
G. NJ. Gutz' for $500, but never redeemed it,
Some witnesses were examined to prove that
the stones had been removed from their set
ting in the, cross and that. others had been
substituted, while others were called to prove
that if the fifty-seven stones of which the
cross is made up had been removed, all but
two or three of the smallest ones had been
replaced in their original setting. The Judge
decided that the cross belonged to Mrs. Hunt.

DESERTED VILLAGES.
The Changes In the Pennsylvania OIL
Regions.
[From the Crawford {Pa.) Journal]

| [From the Crawford {Pa.) Journal]
| A young man who used to be engaged in
business in the oil country, during the palmy
days, after recent visit, writes the follow
ing: While roaming through the oil coun-
try, our interest was excited by having GER
tain localities pointed out to US as the place
where once stood small city. Perhaps no
| part of the oil region shows this as much as
that situated between Oil City and Titusvllle,
| and no place so much as Petrolem Center.
We stand amazed, and almost doubt the truth
Of our informant, when We are told that this
| is the Petroleum Center which we saw ten
| years ago. At that time, as the name i'm
plies, it was the center of the land of grease.
Surrounded as it was by the best oil produc-
ing country, it could not be otherwise. Vast
numbers of houses, stores, machine shops,
etc., were erected in short time, and in 1868
it was a city of 5000 or 1900 inhabitants
Everybody, in oildom knew the Petroleum
Center. The city had banks, immense hotels,
large business houses, and could boast of
try around the place was city. At night it
great crowds of people collected for all kinds
of pleasure. What change. Nothing can
be compared to it except the destruction of
war. Instead of fine residences, the ground
is now used for potato patches; road marks
the place where the principal street was the
churches yet stand, but nobody remains to at
tend them: Perhaps there are 100 inhabi-
tants in the town now. North of Petroleum
Center we were shown the place where in 66
and '67 was the famous Bennington Run.
There remains not the. sign of anything ever
having been there. AS many will remember,
this was one of the best oil territories in the
country at that time On the northern part
of this farm was small town by the name
of Dublin. 1t had 200 inhabitants, and was
the terminus of the Benninghoff Run Rail-
road. Not single house remains. In fact,
one would think, not knowing any better,
that it had never been cleared. Many towns
like this have gone the same way. But per-
haps the next in importance is Pithole. Like
Petroleum Center, it is nearly gone. When
G. B. Duncan, who died in Glasgow some
years ago. made his will, he left to a church
in Pithole $4,000. During the legislation
which followed, committee was sent to find
the church. They returned and stated that
no such building existed, nor could they find
any one who ever knew of it. The facts are,
when Mr. Duncan was in PithOle the church
existed in flourishing condition. But it had
disappeared long before the committee went
there. On account of this, more than any
thing else, Mr.. D. was thought to have been
crazy when he made his will.
