Plucky Mrs. Krawehl.

On Thursday evening man went
into the jewelry store of Joseph Kra-
wchl on Third avenue and asked Mrs.
Krawehl, who was alone in the store,
to show him some gold rings. She
took a tray containing five rings from
the showcase and laid it on the counter
so that the man could examine them.
The man said that none of these suited
him, and Mrs. Krawehl went to the
showcase for another tray. Happen
ing to turn suddenly she saw the man
putting one of the rings in his mouth.
Not wishing to accuse him uniustly, she
resolved to say nothing until she could
examine the first tray and count the
rings. The man cast a glance at the
second tray and then moved toward
the door, saying: 81 don't like those;
| shall have to try at some other place"
Mrs. Krawehl put down the tray and
went to the first tray to count the rings.
She found only four. She took re-
volver from under the counter and held
it concealed from the man, but ready
for instant use.
"Stop," said she; "there's a ring
missing here and want you to give it
up"
81 don't know anything about the
ring" answered the man, looking I'M
easily in the direction of the door.
eff you move another step" cried
Mrs. Krawehl, suddenly raising the
loaded pistol above the counter and
pointing it at the head of the man, who
was only three feet away, 81 will shoot
you down. l want you to give me back
that ring which youputin your mouth"
Inundated by the little woman,
the man took the ring out of his mouth
and laid it down. Now said he,
sulkily, "can | go?"
Eyes" answered Mrs. Krawehl; 81
don't want you"
The man then left the shop and
walked quickly away.-N Y World.

How Milk Is Made.

We all know that milk comes from
the COW, and is derived primarily from
the food that goes in at the mouth.
The COW, indeed, is the machine which
receives the raw material, the grass or
hay or grain, and in the natural lab
oratory of her body produces the sweet
and palatable milk, so essential to in
fancy, so agreeable to the adult. How
it is done is a most interesting inquiry.
1t is not simply filtered from the blood,
as water is filtered through earth or
paper. 1t is itself an organized mate
rial, containing bodies which possess
form, and which are allied to the animal
which produces them.
If we pass bristle inward through
the orifice Of the teat, it traverses a
duct or tube which opens into reser-
voir which communicates with other
reservoirs or with ducts; selecting one
of these ducts and continuing, it finally
arrives at small saccular cavity, which
comprises the extremity of the system.
Within this cavity, the vesicle, as it has
been named, the fat of milk is produced
But how? A microscopic examination
shows these little cavities, but about q
thirtieth of an inch, more or less, in di-
ameter, are lined with cells of an uni
form size, but if anything smaller above
than below. These cells produce the
milk globules by forming new cells in
the following way: A cell commences
to bud at the extremity, and grows until
the bud is dropped off into the cavity;
and there the water containing casein
and milk sugar in solution, and which
has been transnded from the tissues,
takes this young milk globule, but just
now part of the living structure of the
COW, and washes it down through duct
after duct till it reaches the reservoirs
and passes out through the teat. Thus
the fat of milk is formed in the COW,
and the process is strictly an epithelial
one, or a sort of a cell growth, as the
nail cells elongate to form the nail OF
the hand or foot.
Let us retrace our way with the milk.
The simple cell, which but just now
was part of the vesicle, or terminal
acini, or ultimate follicle, has received

The Typical Gold PrOspectOr.

WE had visitor the other day at this
otfice-a sanguine man. There was
nothing very peculiar about him, but as
fair specimen of a pretty large class
he may be worth a description. He
was tall man, somewhat stopped, and
rather slouching in his gait. His face
was innocent of the razor, and his
heavy mustache and thick, iron-gray
beard etfectually concealed the express
sion of the lower portion of his face.
His eyes were bright, though, and they
snapped with expectancy and lighted
up with eXultation as, at our invitation,
he took chair and proceeded to state
his business. He was just down from
Sierra County, he said, and had come
down to arrange about working some
ground he had located up there. cit S

you see the pay; it's just lousy with
gold, and there's tons like it in sight.
There's fortune, / tell you, for anyone
that's willing TO put little money into
that scheme; can't be deceived. I've
been prospecting nigh onto eight-and-
twenty years"
We promised to mention his case to
any capitalist whom we imagined might
feel like making few millions easily,
and babe the sanguine old man good-day
with a saddened feeling of pity for his
inevitable disappointment. We knew,
as well as he should have done if he
had utilized his past experience, that no
one would take hold of his mine. We
knew how far he was self-deceived in
the roseate picture he drew of its wealth;
we knew, none better, how many just
as sanguine as he, just as confident in
the richness of an imaginary property,
were either tramping the city streets
YEARLY in search of the never-dis-
covered capitalist, or. prospecting the
lone hill-sides for another mine g to
open up or "put on the market" "
And here was this old man, a prospect
or of seven-and-twenty years standing,
walking out of the office as hopefully to
all appearances as he might have
trudged through the city in the golden
days of so, when the waters of the bay
washed Montgomery street, and whisky
was fifty cents drink. How many
fortunes had he taken cut of the ground
in that seven-and-twenty years; how
many fine prospects had he discovered
and how many rich lodges had he pros
pected; how many pans of dirt had he
washed? Who can say? Yet he walks
out now, one of the men who have de-
veloped the country; who have cracked
the ribs of the earth and stolen the
golden heart that lay dormant beneath
them; one of the pioneers of California's
early civilization, whose life has been
spent in making her what she is. He
walks out, old, grizzled and poor, yet
with the indomitable fires of hope I'M
quenched in his bosom-an old-time
sanguine prospector, looking for cap
italist to develop his last mine.-Sdn

election of Gen. Scott as President, but
Pierce was successful, and there was a
Democratic majority in Congress. Mr..
Wade severed his connection with the
Wing party in 1854, when the proposed
repeal of the Missouri Compromise ex-
cited Congress and the people. He was
one of the founders of the Republican
party. In the conflict about the Kan
sas-Nebraska bill Mr.. Wade made many
stirring speeches, and he was foremost
in nearly every incident of those trying
times. There was good deal of talk
| about bloodshed among the Southern
Senators and Representatives then. No
opportunity was missed among them
to insult the anti-slavery men on the
floor of both houses. Senators Wade,
Cameron, Chandler and Broderick, and
Representative Burlingame and Potter
determined not to bear the insults long
er. Dueling had long been regarded as
lost art in the Northern States, but
these gentlemen agreed that they would
fight if necessary. Few men in Con-
gress were unarmed; Senator Wade car
ried a rifle cane, and most of the other
Senators carried pistols.
In 1856 Senator Sumner made his
memorable speech on "The Barbarism
of Slavery" and the next day he was
brutally assaulted by Preston Brooks.
Allusions were made to the affair in the
Senate. Senator Douglas remarked
that he had witnessed the assault, but
had not interfered, lest his motives
might be misconstrued. Robert
Toombs, always prominent among the
tire-eaters, had his say: 1T is moth
ing more than the Senator from Massa-
chusetts richly deserved. He played
the part of dog, and merited the treat
ment of dogn' Then, in the loud,
emphatic voice of Senator Wade, these
words rang through the Senate Cham
Der: 1.-The man who utters such senti-
ment is at heart a coward and an as
sassinn' The excitement was intense.
A motion to adjourn prevailed, and
Wade's friends gathered around him.
"You have duel on your hands" they
exclaimed, and they were all alarmed.
Mr.. Wade fully expected a challenge.
Col. James Watson Webb, who was re-
garded as an authority upon the duello,
visited the Senator and proffered his
services; they were accepted. LET it
be rifles at sixty paces," said Wade.
But no challenge was sent. Toombs
remained away from the Senate Cham
Der for three days. On the fourth
morning he entered, just before the
session began, and, approaching Wade,
smilingly remarked: 80 well, Wade,
what is the use of man making fool
of himself?'' "Some men can't help
it," replied Wade. No Southern SEN
ator ever sent challenge to Senator
Wade. ~ Y. Times.

The Crisis.

What think you would be the result If the
earth should stop spinning around the sum-
Were you ever near large and intricate ma
chine when one of its wheels became clogged
or broken-near enough to hear the grating,
Earring clash, the sudden, deafening crash!
Astronomers assure US that precisely similar
effects, only on an inconcevablv grander
scale, would be produced if our earth-one of
the wheels in the Observation-Disclosures
suddenly cease its revolutions. In other words,
there would be a general clash and crash of
satellites, planets and systems What we term
financial crises are due to similar causes. One
of the wheels in the finance-machine becomes
clogged, perhaps shattered. The terrible
Wall-street "crash" which follows is COM
municated to every part of the financial mech
anism of the country. But analogies do not
stop here. There is that other mechanism, the
most intricate of all-sometimes called an Or
ganism because it generates its own forces
the human machine. When one of its MEM
beers fails to perform its office, the whole sys-
TEN is thrown into disorder. Members before
considered unassailable, break down under the
unnatural pressure. The shock comes and
utter prostration is the result. Reparation can
only be effected by the restoration of the i'm
paired parts and the read iustment of its lev
ers-the physical forces. There is one part of
the machine more liable to disorder than any
other-the liver-the great balance-wheel Of
the machine
The liver being the great depurating or
blood cleansing organ of the system, set il at
work and the foul corruptons which gender
in the blood, and rot out, as it were. the ma
chinery of life, are gradually expelled from
the system. For this purpose DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, used daily, and DIR.
Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, taken in
very small doses, are eminently the arti-
cles needed They cure every kind of humor,
from the worst scrofula to the common pim-
pie blotch or eruption. Great, eating ulcers
kindly heal under their mighty curative infu-
ence. Virulent blood poisons that lurk in the
system are by them robbed of their terrors,
and by their persevering and somewhat pro-
tracted use the most tainted systems may be
completely renovated and built up anew. En-
larged glands, tumors and swellings dwindle
away and disappear under the influence of
these great resolvents.

the material for its growth from the
blood which has been brought to it by
the system of capillaries, which has en-
veloped itwith an abundant network.
This material received into the cell has
become changed into fat by species of
change allied to degeneration, or the
breaking up of previous compounds.
This ultimate follicle is grouped with
other vesicles of like character, to form
lobule.
This lobule is arranged with other
lobules, and the combined secretion of
all the lobules is passed onward to the
main duct. To repeat. the vesicles Sc
crete and pass their product, the milk
globule, into the duct of the lobule, and
from this duct the globule passes into
others, continually more capacious, I'M
til 1t reaches the reservoirs, which are
principally arranged about the peri
phery and apex of the udder gland.
We thus see that the milk globule is
at one time portion of the living COW;
that it must partake in some measure
OF the character of the COW. Hence, as
cows ditfer-we know that cows meat
differs, formed of muscle cells, as it is,

another being dry and tough $50 must
there be differences in their milk. The

Mr.. Wade went into the Senate at the
beginning of an exciting era. The COM
promise measures of 1851 had been
passed. The Northern people were
compelled by law to assist in the capture
of fugitive slaves. Calhoun was dead,
and Webster had left the Senate for the
Cabinet. Clay's last illness was COM
