How TO oLEARN TO SwIM.-A writer in
the american; Agriculturist offers the fol-
lowing suggestions, by obedience to which
the art Of swimming may be readily ac-
quired
Whe1I was Q boy, l learned to swim by
nieans9 swimming board. This is the
-snfest tnaf Nod possible. If corks are used,
they Sip from around the breast down
sbsf {he body, fhrowing the head below
sthe surfaoe, md putting the wearer in
danger Of drowning.
Some country boys get two bladders and
then tie them together with a. short cord,
and use these assuppSfts They arc the
most dangerous things Possible for boy to
have
The board is perfectly safe, and one may
slearn to swim in very Short time by using
Zone. 1t should be over four feet long, over
a foot wide, ,and two inches thick, made of
soft white pine or cedar. To use it, boy
wades into the water up to his shoulders,
then, taking hold Of the end of the board,
he pushes it before him-towards the bank +,
and not into deeper water-springs forward
with his feet, and throws himself fiat upon
the water. This movement carries him
along few feet He then draws up both
his legs at the same time, keeping the knees
as far apsfr as possible, and theRNrtkes
out with both feet, not straight backward,
but sideways, just as frog does. The
stroke is made slowly, and is repeated again,
drawing up the legs slowly and steadily
The board keeps the head above watcr.-
When the leg-stroke has been learned, one
hand is taken from the board and tho stroke
learned, or the chin may be rested on the
board while the stroke is taken with, both
hands. This is a very good plan, as it
compels thS swimmer to keep his hands
under the water, which he should always
do. By-and-by the board may be pushed
ahead, and the young swimmer may swim
after it, always keeping it within reach
When nuR,ber Of boys so to swim, they
should alw3Ss have two or three of these
boards with Them for use in case of any ao-
cident. 80,

The Telephone.

That which would have seemed i'm
possible and miraculous few years
since, is now regarded as the legiti-
mate fruit of our mental development
and inventive genius. The telegraph,
sub marine cable, and telephone,
have each in its successive turn been
thought the browning marvel OF the
age. That speech pronounced in
Boston should report itself over the
wires to an audiedce in Brooklyn, and
hymn played in New York should
be audible in Washington, is indeed
wonderful. But is it not equally
wonderful that r. V. Pierce, NJ. D., OF
Buffalo, N. Y, can, through his pecu-
liar system OF diagnosis, and without
seeing the patient, obtain as accurate
and perfect a knowledge OF most
chronical diseases as though he had
not made a personal examination :?
And Is 1t not reasonable to
supposs that as great progress has
been made in the occult science as in
the more tangible and readily demon
strable problems of metaphysics,
where each new invention is but the
logical sequence OF the one that pre-
cedes it? The failure of physicians
to fulfil their promises has created a
wide spread feeling of distrust; but
is it right to condemn all physicians
because the greed or ignorance OF a
few induced them to do wrong?
Many are prejudiced against DIR.
Pierce's Family Medicines, and enron
eously fancy them to be "cure- alls, :"
but has not the Doctor repeatedly
disclaimed their ability TO cure cancer,
or give other than temporary relief
where the lung was half wasted
away? By dealing fairly with the
people, he has earned their confidence,
and built up practice so large in
the treatment OF chronic diseases
that the erection of the Grand Inval-
ids Hotel, at Buffalo. N. Y, to accom-
odate his patients, became a necess-
ity. At an expense OF nearly half
million dollars he has erected the lar
gest and most complete sanitarium
in the world Buffalo Ne,os.

BLOOD {!
1t Flowed Freely Mt BOur-
bon last Saturday
Charles Haywood Shoots His Wife
and then Commits Suicide.
Full Particulars Of the Tragedy.

About IL o'clock, Saturday morn
ing, the town of Bourbon, in this
county, was thrown into a terrible
state of excitement by the report that
Charles Haywood, a steady, sober
young married man, had murdered
his wife, and taken his own life.
The facts, as We can gather them,
are as follows: About ten o'clock he
went down the street with a saw in his
hand, entered hardware store, and
after some conversation with clerk,
turned to leave. The clerk asked
him il he did not wish to buy knife.
he said "no, what are your Ievolvers
worth" The clerk told him the
prices of two-one large, the other
small. He purchased the large enc,
went to a bakery and bought cigar
something he had never been
known to do before-lighted it and
passed on toward his home smoking.
Reaching his home, he stepped into
the front room, and calling his wife,
said SARAH, give me a clean shirt. y
Mrs. Haywood got the shirt and while
in the act Of handing it to him. he
said, Sarah, / guess we will have to
die" He then fired three shots, two
of them glancing from the forehead
of his wife, the third entering near
the shoulder and ranging downward
into the bowels. Then placing the
pistol to bis own temple he fired an
other shot.
His wife's mother, who was in the
adjoining room, and who, it seems
from her evidence before the coroner,
was afraid to interfere, now rushed
across the street and informed a
neighbor that her daughter was
killed.
When help arrived, Charles Hay
wood was lying across a chair dead.
His wife was insensible, and unable
to speak. Her wounds were exam
ined and pronounced fatal; but at
the present writing she is alive.
Haywood had been married about
eighteen months. 1t is said that he
lived happily with his wife. But
some recent difficulty, between him
self and his mother-in-law and wife,
caused him to perpetrate the terrible
crime. We understand that he had
been a resident of the county several
years, and few years ago lost limb
at this place by railroad accident
His wife has also been for some time
a resident Of the county.
