eyA young lady residing on North
street, in Harrisburg, is very i'll, her
disease being pronounced genuine case
of trichonisis. She had been on a visit
to friends down the country and while
there partook heartily of some cooked
sausage. Shortly after eating it she
became very sick and was at once
brought home. Careful examination of
the case showed every symptom of the
dreaded disease and itassumed violent
shape and little hope of her recovery
was entertained. The family physician,
however, by close attention to the case
and by administering the proper reme-
dies, has succeeded in getting the lady
out of danger. The opinion seems to
prevail that a portion of the sausage
was of putrid character and not fully
cooked. Exchange.

BYT The deputy sheriff of Schuylkill
county had lively experience within
his bailiwick one day recently. He
started out to dispossess a family, the
members of which were not favorable to
the proceeding. One young man per-
sisted in carrying the goods back to the
house as fast as they were deposited out
side, and being of an active turn, was
never more than one article behind the
hard-working sheriff; After the sheriff
had tired of the assistance rendered him,
he handcuffed the fellow with his arms
around an adjacent tree. He now made
considerable headway with the goods,
and while congratulating himself on the
speedy ending of the task, the officer
was startled to see the prisoner released,
the tree having been cut down. The
family then made combined attack,
and 1t was not until he had secured re-
Inducements that the sheriff was enabled
to set the goods out of the house.

MAKING WATCHES.

Defective Watch Cases arc ono OF tho chief
causes OF so many watches not being good
time pieces. The cases being thin md not fit
ting we'll. admit dust and dirt to the move
mcnt, which soon tntcrferes with the running
parts OF the watch nccessitating cleaning, re.
pairing, &c, and the amount thus paid out II
applied toward buying good case In the be-
ginning, would have saved all this trouble and
expense. We have recently seen a case that
meets all these requirements, 1t having been
carried for over twenty years and still remains
perfect. We refer to the JAS. BOSS Patent
Stinencd Gold Case, which has become one
OF the staple articles OF tho Jewelry trade,
possessing as It does so many advantages over
a)l other watch eases, being made Of two
heavy plates Of solid gold over plate OF COM
position. And we advise oil our readers to ask
their Jewelcr for q card or catalogue that Will
explain the manner in which they are mado.
II Is the only Stifcned Case made with Two
plates OF gold, seamless pendants, and centre,
solid joints, crown pieces, &C., allof which are
covered by letters patent Therefore buy no
case 'efore consulting a Jewcler who keeps tho
JAS. BOSS Patent Stiffened Gold Case, that
you may learn the difference between It and
all limitations that claim to be equally good.
For sale by all responsible jewelers.. ASK to
see the warrant that accompanies each Case,
and don't be persuaded that any other mako OF
case is as good apl2.
