Licking an Elder.

One summer IN the years agone while a
camp meeting vas in progress in Eaton coun
ty there arrived on the grounds bully named
Miller, who had made vow to lick Elder
johnson and break up the whole business
The Elder heard the news with composure
and as soon as at liberty he hunted up q world
ly friend of his own and asked
"Friend Smith, didn't you used to fight IN
your younger days."
"Ah! Elder, | have had many turn with
the boys"
"And what is the effect of sudden blow
between the eyes?
at astonishes and humbles.'
dis there any danger of killing man by
such blow ~
"Never knew a case of it."
The Elder went his way with serene smile
on his face. Miller had his coat off and was
hunting for HIM, and they met face to face as
they turned wagon. Miller started to crack
his heels and crow, but he never finished The
Elder took HIM one square between the look
ers without stopping his pace, and it took
twelve rowdies, three dippers of water and two
quarts of whisky to revlbe the patient and get
him off the grounds. One day, year after
wards, he met the Elder and seriously asked:

the following statement:
But we wish to offer an unprofesslonal rem

the old home farm we wrestled with the var

then cured sweeny with invariable success by
daily pounding the depression caused by the
wasted muscles, using our fist, stone or a
stick for the purpose. Medically speaking,
we percussed the atrophy We doubt whether
there is any case of sweeny that will not yield
to persistent percussion. Old, chronIc cases
will, of course, require longer time than the

to endorse him.
AT meeting of the Democratic mem.
bers Of the bar, held on the 21st of last
March, committee was appointed to
take steps to prevent the denomination
OF Judge Briggs. This committee met
yesterday and resolved to urge the COM

to nominate an upright, fit and compe-

such course are that the Judge Is not
