Twelve years ago, a woman near
Albany, New York, accused her hus-
band of attempting to poison her with
arsenic placed in a bottle OF wine she
was using, and her mother was a wit
ness against him, The case was not
clear against him and he was not tried.
The woman soon became an invalid,
and he allowed her to be sent to the
poor.house, where she recently died.
Before her death, she confessed that
her mother put the arsenic in the wine
to bring disgrace aud discredit ON the
son-in.law.-[ Albany Journal.

In one Of his great speeches, in re.
ply to Hayne, Daniel Webster said:
"Wheu my eyes shall be turned for
the last time on the meridian sun,
hope | shall see him shining bright
upon my united, free and happy coun-
try. hope / shall not live to see
beams falling upon the dispersed frag-
ments of this once glorious Union.
! hope ! may not see the flag Of my
country separated or obiterated; torn
by connections, smoking with the
blood Of civil war. hope / may not
see the standard raised Of separate
state rights, star against star, and
stripe against stripe; but that the flag
of my union may keep its stars and its
stripes corded and bound together in
indissoluable ties. | hope shall not
see written as its motto, First liberty,
and then union hope / shall see
no such delusive and deluded motto on
the flag OF that country, | hope to see,
spread all over it, blazoned in letters
of flight and proudly floating over land
and sea, that other sentiment dear to
my heart. Union and liberty, now
and forever; one and inseparable."
Mr.. Webster did not live TO see the
time which he seemed TO feel was inc
vitable.

statement that twelve and a halt mil

considered in connection with the fact
that the same city produces annually

vent the necessity of false teeth.

Red ants are Il decided nuisance.
We find the following simple way to
exterminate them, in an exchange:
Procure a large sponge, wash it we'll,
and press it dry, then sprinkle over it
some white sugar, and place it where
the ants are troublesome. They will
soon collect upon the sponge and get
into the cells. Then dip the sponge
into sealding hot water, which will
wash them out--dead. Put in more
sugar and set the trap anew.

A SwEET.GUM CRADLE.-In view
of the experience of a Kentuckian, it
may be accepted as a settled fact that
sweet gum will warp. Being in need
of a cradle, he had one made of gum,
and felt that he was parent to be en-
We'd when he carried it home on his
shoulder aud deposited it in the nur-
sery. The sides and end Stats we're as
fine as rosewood; it was a model cradle
in every respect, and the little one,
when placed in il, seemed charmed,
for gradually its cries became subdued
and slumber came to its relief. The
windows were darkened, and the tired
mother went ont upon the front steps
to get a breath Of fresh air. Just then
a cry was heard in the nursery, and
the parents rushed in. The cradle
had warped itself inside out and dump
the yount,ste on the floor.

TOMATO SALAD.-Wipe and slice
about a half a dozen tomatoes, lay
them in a salad bowl on a bed of green
salad dressing. Put in the bottom Of
pint bowl the yolk of raw egg and
a quarter of saltspoOnful of salt; stir
in, drop by drop, three tablespoonfuls
of salad oil, one of vinegar or lemon
juice, and half saltspoohful of dry
mustard, stirring until smooth. The
appearance of this dish may be varied
by serving the tomatoes whole, each
one surrounded by two or three small
tender lettuce leaves. The tomatoes
should be scalded for a minute by pour,
ing boiling water over them, so that
their skins can easily be removed.

IDWarfS.

In the 18th century the Court of Russia
acted one of Mother Goose's stories. The
Princess Nathalie, sister of Peter, solemnly
married her dwarf with a dwarfess All the
myrmidons of the Empire were invited to the
wedding, dressed up in gala clothes, and
placed four by four in 10 miniature coaches.
The cortege then dcfiled through the town,
escorted by the tallest grenadiers of the Rus
sian army. At night there was a grand
dwarfs dinner and ball at Kremlin. There
have been dwarfs who were heroes Cornell
us of Lithuania, the butToon Of Charles ",
fought bravely in his masters wars. A
mighty exploit too, was the duel with pistols
between Jeffry Hudson, the dwarf of Queen
Henrietta Maria of England, Lord Minimus,
as he was called, and the German Colossus
Croft. The dwarf killed the giant, as David
of old killed Goliath The last royal dwarf
was the baby Of King Stanislaus of Poland,
who accompanied the King in his retreat Mt
Nancy The King wcpt when his dwarf died.
Like Lear he said: Poor fool and knave,
have one part in my heart that's sorry yet for
thee" In mythology and legend dwarfs
abound. Greece invented those charming
pigmies whose battle with the cranes was sung
BY Iesiod and Homer. Their wives became
mothers at three, and died of old age at eight.
How often have poets sung the attack Of Her
cules by the pigmies? The two wings of the
army envelope the beros hands, the main
battalion charges his breast, and the queen,
followed by her archers, mounts bravely to
the assault Of his head. And Hercules,
awakened by the tickling of their myriad feet,
laughs with the inextinguisbable laughter Of
the gods, and as he rises he carries along the
little army hanging to the bristles of his lions
skin.-4U the Year Round
