says there is living in that neighbor-
hood a negro woman who, soon after
the close of the war, had the misfor-
tune of losing both Of her hands, just
above the wrist, who can sew, thread
her needle, knit, spin, cook, clean up q
house, write quite we'll. and can pick
up ten-cent piece off of glass. She
dresses neatly, and appears to be hap
py and contented with her lot. It ap-
pears that the sinews that we're once
used for the opening and closing of the
fingers are now used in the place OF
hand and fingers to grasp and hold OBJ
jects at her will.

SAD ACCIDENT

IA man while shaving accidently
cut of his nose. In his excitement he
dropped the razor aud decapitated one
off his toes. Hastily picking up the
dismembered portions Of his anatomy
he clapped them to the bleeding wounds
and bound them on tightly. After the
flesh had grown fast and healed up he
removed the bandages and was filed
with horror when he found q well-de-
veloped toe in lieu of nasal organ aud
vice versa. Now, whenever he gets q
cold, he has to remove his shoe and
stocking in order to blow his nose.-I

TIE CALIFORNIA WOMAN.

OF late years our women have de-
veloped great interest in field sports.
We have seen ladies who were far be-
yond the average quail shot, and others
who could throw q line with more than
the skill of the average angler. They
even fence and spar, although we con-
fess we do not like to see q woman with
the "muf11ers" on. No matter about
the foil. In the hands of man or wom-
an, when skillfully handled, it induces
more grace than any other pastime.-

THE DYING HENDRICKS.

THE DYING HENDRICKS.
There is quiet laugh at the expense
of big doctors in indianapolis. Ex-
Senator Hendricks was recently re-
ported critically ill of erysipelas, with
gangrenous symptoms, certain, the
great doctors Of Indianapolis and Lou
isville said, to carry him to a speedy
death. The Senator prepared for his
fate calmly, and resignedly waited for
the grim messenger. But he did not
proceed to die. The day to which the
scientific doctors limited his life, a blunt
old Democratic friend, no was coun-
try practitioner, came to pay his dis
tinguished friend farewell visit. He
loo looked ts at the srysippelas Of the dying
expressive grunt, "Nothing but bile,
by G. d.! The next day the states
man was at the polls voting the Dem
ocratic ticket. The distinguished sci
entific physicians are very quiet on the
subject. We have the documents for
this story.-Ddyt0,s Journal.

A MUSICAL CHICK EN-.

"A M USUAL CA1Ck EN.
The Maysville (Ky.) Bulletin says q
musical chicken Is one of the late Curl
osities at Concord. It IL q rooster of
the Plymouth Rock species. In its
chickenhood the brood come to the call
of whistling for them, and they were
fed to a set tune. This special chicken
took up the call and makes out re-
spectacle imitation. He calls the 9TH
er chickens with a peculiar whistle.
This bird Is June chick, and has crow
ing attractions that are remarkable.
He not only crows with . clear clarion
note that would be distinguished in a
thousand which attracts neighbors and
children, but he echoes the crow melo-
dy three times in succession, as if the
vibrations were driving away over the
river hills, the closing notes resembling
the approaching sounds Of horn in the
distance. Another peculiar feature is
his imitation of steamboat whistles in
an undertone that can not be mis-
taken.

BILE for belief: "a very wicked man be-
came converted and Ia course Of time

spare them plenty to eat while on earth.
Send every one of them q full barrel of
