were making for the funeral and
watchers sitting with the supposed

sigh was heard coming from the body,
The watchers started to their feet with
alarm, stepped to her side, found her
eyes were wide open, while ia q voice
that was faint she recognized their
and asked for her husband. For a NOM
cot the attendants were speechless wit
wonder; then, with the revulsion of fe .
ing, they a. IL 1st screamed with excite.
ment. The husband came in haste and
with joy unspeakable Clasped again his
living wife in his arms. The doctor was
sent for and he was as much astonished
as the rest of the household at behold
ing living what in his exact medical
science he had declared dead. He ad-
ministered the proper restoratives and
the patient rapidly recovered and was
declared at a late hour to be in o more
hopeful condition than ever.

A Horse steals a watch.

A few days ago Jacob Michael, who
resides in Parkesburg, Pa, and is en-,
ployed as an engineer on the Pennsyl.
vania Railroad, was presented with a
new watch, and before he reached home
some one had relieved him of it. An
active search failed to discover the
missing time piece. While on his way
home, however, he had occasion to stop
in stable, and while engaged around
horse the animal switched its tail,
which caught the watch chain and alb.
stracted the watch. The watch re-
mained in the horse's tail all night
where it was discovered the next morn
ing by the owners wife.

on! Tho Mighty Voice.

Homer says of Ulysses, one OF the
Greek heroes in the great Trojan war
"You had thought him fool, so stitfly
he held his sceptre, and 80 dOwncast
were his eyes; but as soon as be began
to speak-oh, the mighty voice, and the
words thick as the falling snow" "
Looking at a bottle of Hunts Remedy,
one would never suspect its concealed
power, greater than the eloquence OF
U ysses. But when 1t begins its work
with patient who is atfl cted with any
kidney or liver disease, "Oh the
mighty voice." and the wonderful heal
ing effects produced in an incredibly
short time. AS there was but one
" wise Ulysses" in all the camp of the
Greeks, there is but one Hunts Rem
edy in all the list of kidney remedies (;
and there is none that works such mar
vellous results. Physicians have dis
covered this, and freely prescribe 1t to
their patients; and multitudes of the
cure sound its praises.
