seems reversed, since a Drown carpet
gets dlngy, and a gray combined needs
a good deal of bright color to give an
air of comfort or cheer to a room in
which it is. This is not of brown car
pets. whose tone inclines to butternut
or maroon, but of the cool, pure brown
and grays. On the contrary, chairs OF
sofas upholstered in brown prove the
most satisfactory, perhaps, of all, since
they keep warm, rich tints ana mellow

child of Mr.. Charles Frost, Of Berlin.
Ont, and being left with the care of a
sister of five, became angered because
it intcrfered with her frolics with her
companions. She determined to rid
herself of the encumbrance, and began
to abuse the child in the most fi0ndlsh
manne First, she filled its mouth
with snow, next dipped it into a guam
tity Of water until was nearly drown
ed. Then it was placed in the oven of
the stove and burned and bruised, and
next thrust under the stove. All these
devices failing, she went for a saw to
saw its head off, but %rslented, and hit
upon the plan of placing it in a bag
and dragging it about the room. II

ment when the horror-stricken mother

The Oldest Man.

II anybody wants to live a couple of
centuries % let him never oyerfeed.
anu - let him never get drunk. At
least, those are the rules of health laid
down by Miguel Soils, a half-breed
farmer IN the foothills OF the Sierra
Meslla, New Granada, who c~onfesses
TO beng $50 years old. but is believed
Dy his nelghbors to be really much
older. DR.. LUZ Hernandez, who has
recently paid him a visit, found him
at work IN his orchard his skin was
the color of parchment, but he was
robust and active; his snow-white
halr was twisted turban-fashion round
his mead, and his eyes We're SO bright
that the doctor felt quite uncomforta-
bic when they were turned upon him.
Miguel said hat the secret of his living
a century or two was very simple
simply never getting drunk and never
Overfeeding. Il eat only once a day,
a big, hearty meal, which it often
takes me alf an hour to get through
with; but, you see 1t is not possible IN
half an hour to eat more than you can
digest in the next twenty-fOur." He
went on to say that he had not made
up his mind about meat. but did not
eat much of it. He tasted on the first
and middle days of each month, eat
ingnothing, but drinking all the water
he could swallow. He always let cook
ed food cool before tasting it and to
this precaution he attributed the fact
that his teeth are as sound now as
they We're $50 years ago. DIR. Herman
DEE was informed by some of the old
est inhabitants of the district that they
we'll remembered Miguel as a reputed
centenarian when they were boys;
also that the name of Miguel Soils,
colored farmer, appears in a writ, still
preserved, of the contributors to the
building fund Of a franciscan monas-
terry near San Sebastian, which wa.
founded in 1912, and that the present
abbot is positive it is the same man.
But protracted as has been his sOjOurn
on earth, he has not succeeded in win
ming the respect of his fellow-beings.
The Indians in the neighbOrhood firm
" believe that he has sold his sou to
the devil.

tShelbyville, Ind, Thursday night,
a mar named Wagner, who has been
a resident, living in gorgeous style in
that city, was caught by a posse of
officers and citizens in an attempt t 0
starve to death his own daughter, who
is the owner Of the property Of which
he has been enjoying the possession.
Several weeks ago his daughter, aged
but fourteen years, was locked in a
room by the father and step-mother.
where she has been confined IN hunger
and filth ever since. AT 10 o'clock
Thursday night the enraged populace
went to his residence, forced an en-
trance, and took the poor girl from
confinement. Monday morning a
party of young men, armed with shot
guns and carrying a rope. proceeded
to his residence, and only through the
utmost exertionS of the city marshal
and his assistants was the mob pre-
vented from dealing out summary
punishment. Wagner was escorted to
the depot, surrounded by a posse of
40 men and 500 persons. and cOmpell-
ed to leave the city. His wife refused
to 90 with him.
