As regards the difficulty of finding pure

remed y Is to make it at home. For this
an expensive engine or mill is not neces-

be found at almos: any hardware store
will answer every purpose. A little

For upwards of forty years Messrs.

Mich, have been prominent manufactur-
ers of farm implements and machinery,
steam engines, mill machinery, etc., dur
ing which period their wares have be-
come we'll known and highly valued
throughout the country. Over twenty
years ago, they made fortunate hit by
originating the celebrated vibrator"

from the manufacture of only ten

ceed those OF any other thresher factory

founded upon merit, for the machine

in the most expeditions and perfect man

machine is the result of long and careful
experimenting by persons Of genius and
skill, with the aid Of liberal expediture,
and hence it is not surprising that the
"Vibrstor" should far excel all the old
fashioned threshers in every essential
requisite. Indeed, the great value and
success of the sVibrstor"- which long
ago achieved a national reputation-ren-
ders it worthy the attention of all grain
and seed growers and threshermen,
whether located in the East or West, North
or South. After many trials and tribula-
tions-during which its firm friends
fought fierce foes-the signal triumph of
this machine is notable instance Of the
Survival Of the fittest," and tho result
must be as gratifying to the manufactur

peared to mo like an hour or more of |

one making .misstep in the room, and
instantly it was lighted BY the flash of
a pistol, and the shrek Of the woman
rose in tone of agony upon the stiffness
of the night. Following the report of
the pistol came that of another, so sud-
denly that it almost appeared to be the
same, and a body fell with dull thud
upon the esrtheD floor of the room. That
one shrek Of the woman was all she ut
tered-it was her last utterance, and she
must have died ere it had fully passed
her lips. As the light of the first pistol

dentially been facing the spot where the

pistol extended to fire upon tho least noise
in that direction, saw the face Of the half.

with deadly and accurate aim. There
was q commotion outside of the b. use,
and the sound Of running feet was heard
gradually dying away in the distance:
Still we dared not strike light, and did
not move for some time, until we heard
the mules renew their munching
sound as they began to eat again. Then
the guide spoke and struck light, and
the dead bodies Of the half breed and his
wife were lying where they fell. She
had large knife in her hand, and it was
her misstep as she was returning with it
to where had been seated that caused
her husband to fire, as he supposed, at me,
and killed her instead. Evidently she
had noticed the positions each Of US had
occupied when the lights were extin-
guished, and had determined to use the
knife for my destruction; aud her hus-
baud not being ,aware of her intent, and
having placed his hand inadvertently on
my shoulders, supposed when she made
the noise that it proceeded from me, and
fired in that direction, intending to kill
me. The Apactes undoubtedly at this
moment were approaching the house, in.
tending to attack US in the dark, but the
two shots had led them to suppose they
were discovered, and feering they would
meet the fate Of their companions whom
we killed at first, they fled from the scene
