A patent has just been secured on an
invention which will be of great value
to those who are obliged to 90 through
life on crutches. II consists OF
crutches set on rockers which are
faced with heavy rubber band. The
user thus moves forward eight feet at q
step, with u smooth even motion, which
does away with the jar experienced in
the use of the ordinary crutch.

The Bad and Worthless

Are never initiated or counterteited
This is especially true of a family
medicine. and it is positive proof
that the remedy initiated is OF the
highest value. As soon as it had
been tested and proved by the whole
world that Hop Bitters was the pur-
est, best and most valuable family
medicine on earth, many limitations
sprung up and began to steal the
notices in which the press and peo-
pie of the country had expressed
the merits of H. B., and in every
way trying to induce suffering inva-
lids to use their stuff instead, ex-
pecting to make money on the credit
and good name of II. B. Many
Others started nostrumS put up in
similar style to H. B., with various
ly devised names in which the word
Hop" or Hops" were used in a
way to induce people to believe they
were the same as Hop Bitters. All
such pretended remedies or cures,
no matter what their style or name
is, and especially those with the
word Hop or Hops" in their
name or IN any way connected with
them or their name, are limitations
or counterfeits. Beware of them.
Touch none of them. Use nothing
but genuine Hop Bitters, with Il
bunch or cluster of green Hops or
the white label. Trust nothing else.
Druggists and dealers are warned
against dealing in limitations or
counterfeits.

How the Apostles Died.

Peter was crucified at Rome, and
at his own request, with his head
downward.
Andrew was crucified by being
bound to a cross with cords on which
he hung two days, exhorting the
people till he died.
James, the great, was beheaded
by order Of Herod at Jerusalem.
Philip was bound and hanged to
a pillar
Bartholomew was flayed to death
by command of a barbarous king.
Matthew was killed by halberd.
Thomas, while at PRAYER, was shot
with a shower of lances, and after
ward run through the body with a
lance.
Thaddeus was cruelty put to
death.
The manner of Matthias death is
uncertain. One says he was stoned,
then beheaded another saws he
was erucifed.
Judas lscariot fell and his bowels
gushed out.
Paul was beheaded by order of
Nero.

Bedding for Animals.

The farmer who takes pains to
make up the bed" for his COW or
horse gains ten times more than the
cost of the labor Of so doing. fall
the material is passed through the
cutter previous to being used for
bedding it not only adds to the com
fort of the animal, but assists in the
matter of cleanliness by reason of
its greater power of ABSORPTION. For
this reason sawdust is becoming a
tavorite, as It's tineness not only adj
mits of its being handled easily, well
spread in the stall, and promptly
removed, but, after absorbed the
liquid flows of the stall, still readily
mixes conveniently with the matter
in the manure heap. The merit of
sawdust is due to its fineness and to
its absorptive quality. If any bed
ding is plentiful, fine and absorp-
tive 1t prevents loss of manure
by Immediately mixing with it.
and as the droppings are more
readily incorporated with a greater
mass of absorbent material, the risk
OF evaporation and escape of gasses
is lessened. Now, if the labor OF
cutting is to be taken into this ac-
count. it is more than balanced by
facility in spreading the fine manure
when it is hauled to the fields. The
cutting can be done in the winter or
during wet weather, and it is lux
ury to spread nice finely divided
manure

Retailing Human Flesh

We have all heard the Chinese
charged with infanticide We be-
lieve that crime to be less prevalent
with them than 1t is with US. If
children are ever exposed, as has
been seen on a wayside alter near
Honam, we believe that bitter want,
and hope that charity would pro-
vide for the child better than the
mother could, have been the moving
causes. As a general rule self-inter-
ests act as the strongest bar to this
vice. That the life of the male chill
dren should be preserved is most
important, as the Chinese law will
compel the sons to maintain their
parents, and in the event OF all the
sons dying no one would be able to
offer that worship at the tomb of their
father and mother on which their
happiness in another state is suppos-
ed to depend With girls, preserva-
ton is almost as important. and they
are a marketable commodity either
as wives or as servants. Indeed tits
no rare thing to see a basketful of
babies sent down from Canton to
Hong Kong for sale at prices rang
ing from 2 TO So. These are all
girls and the purchas Of the one or
more of them is generally the first
investment that a Chinese Aspasia
makes of her earnings, q speculation
sure ultimately to pay a very large
interest on the money sunk. In
denying the existence Of infanuicide
it is necessary to make one exception.
This is among the Tan-kia or boat
population. These are a race of
people of different descent and diff
ferent religion from the Chinese,
by their own magistrates,
and 50 looked down upon by the
other classes that no child of a boat
woman can compete in the literary
examinations, or, whatever his abili-
ty may be, become an aspirant for
office. This class is excessively
superstitious, and we have heard 1t
stated by missionaries that when q
child belonging to people of this class
suffers from any lingering malady,
and recovery becomes hopeless they
will put to death with circumstances
ofgreat cruelty, believing tito be not
their child but changeIing, and
fancying that Il demon has taken
the place of their offspring for the
purpose of entailing on them expense
and trouble for which they coald
never get anv return.

The Model Woman.

The best-natured woman in the
Uuited States lives in Austin. She
has been married a number of years
to man named Ferguson, but she
and her husband have never had a
quarrel vet and be has frequently
boasted thatssit is utterly impossible
to make her angry. Ferguson made
several desperate attempts to see II
he could not exasperate her to look
cross or scowl at him, merely to
CRAFTY his curiosity, but the more
affable and lovable she behaved.
Last week he was talking TO q
friend about what a hard time he
had trying to find out if his wife
bad temper. The Friend offered
to bet him $50 that if Ferguson We're
to 60 home drunk, raise a row and
pull the table-cloth full of dishes off
the table she would show some signs
of annoyance. Ferguson said he
didn't want to rob friend OF his
money, for he knew he would win
but they at last made the bet OF 500,
the friend to hide in the front yard
TO watch the proceedings of the con-
vention through the window.
Ferguson came home late and ap-
parently fighting drunk. She met
him at the gate, kissed him and as
sisted his tottering steps to the
house. He sat down hard in the
middle of the floor and howled out;
"Confound your ugly pictures
what did you mean by pulling that
chair from under me ?"
"Oh, hope you didn't hurt your
self. 1t is my awkwardness, but III
try and not do it again" :" and she
helped him 10 his feet, although she
h had nothing in the world TO do with
his falling.
He then sat down on the sofa, and
sided off on the floor, abused her
/ for not lifting up the other end of
the sofa, all ofwhich she toook good
naturally, and finally she led him
to the supper table He threw a
plate at her: but she acted as If she
had nor noticed it and asked him If
he would take tea or coffee. Then
the brute seized the table-cloth and
sat down on the floor, pulling the
dishes and everything else over him
in one grand crash.
What did this noble woman do
Do you suppose she grumbled and
talked about going home to her ma,
or that she sat down and cried like
fool. or that she sulked or pouted?
/ Not a bit OF it. With a pleasant
smile, she said
"Why, George, that's a new idea
isn't il? We have been married ten
wears and have never VET ate our
supper on the floor. Won't it be
fun-iust like those picnics we used
to attend before we got married p
And then this angelic woman deiib-
erately sat down on the floor along
side OF the wretch, arranged the
the dishes and fixed him up nice
supper.
This broke George all up, He
owned up he was fooling her and
-ofered to give her the $50 to get a
new hat, but she took the money
and bought him a new suit Of clothes
and a box of cigars.-GGtcestoH

Influence of the Soil on aealth.

The influence OF the soil upon the
health of those living upon it is
brought out very plainly during the
prevalence of epidemic diseases. That
malarial diseases. like intermittent
tevers, originate from the soil, is
already accepted; and tbs more ex-
act studies in recent times Of the man
ner in which cholera. abdominal
typhus. yellow fever, and the plague
are spread, has convinced many that
these diseases, also, which we're form
erly considered independent of the
soil. because their specific germs are
communicable and are actually COM
municated By human intercourse
and trade, are still in scn1e way con-
nected with it, although the nature
Of the connection is yet to be found
out. The explanation OF the frequent.
sharply defined local Limitations of
cholera and typhoid has been sought

fret, in influences not OF the soil Int
of water and air, to which the germs
OF disease have bsen impaired from
men; but q clear apd impartial ex-
animation of the local prevalence OF
these diseases in circles OF greater or
lesser extent has now furnished evil
deuce that In many Cases air and
water can no longer be maintained to
be the causes of the loc~l!z.ion, but
that the sources of the epidemic mus,
be eOught in the soil.
In the occurrence Of cholera en- ships
ct sea, where any influences of soil
would seem to be absolutely out of
the question, that influence Of
ten makes Itself apparent in
a striking manner by the fact
that only persons whol have
come from certain places are
attacked, while other persons on the
ships do not even have disrrhea,
although they are all the time with
the sick. and use the same food and
water and air. Ships at sea may be
considered as in themselves sale from
the cholera; usually sickness brought
upon them in individual cases dies
out; and it is regarded IN st ala ing
practice as ga excellent prophylscuc
measure to go TO sea. taxing the slck
along and breaking up. all commuJI
cation of the men With the infected
port or shore. Exceptional cases OF
epidemics breaking out on ships can
not be regarded as arising from con-
tagion from person 10 person, but
always from previous communication
OF the ship. or it's crew or passengers
with some place Infected with the
disease. -Dr. Won PeIteHkoter, In
