How to Remove a Tight Ring.

A novel method Of e:iecting the removal
Of a ring which has become CONSTRUCTED
around 4 swollen finger, or in any other sim
liar situation, consists simply in enyeloping
the afflicted member, after the manner of
circular bandage, in length of fiat india
rubber braid, such as ladies make use of to
keep their hats on the top Of their heads
This should be accurately applied-beginning
not close TO the ring, but at the tip of the
finger, and leaving no intervals between the
successive turns, 50 as to exert It's elastic
force gradually and gently upon the tissues
unde meath. When the binding il complete

the same manner, when, after another five
minutes, the finger. if again rapidly urcov-
cred, will be small enough for the ring to he

The Check Rein for Horses.

| The "Society for the Prevention of Cruel
ty to Animals" published pamphlet some
years ago, in which they strongly condemn
ed the use of the check rein.
The check-rein may, probably, be of some
use in breaking colt" and may, perhaps,
help to "get up his head until he has been
'taught his place." but afterwards it can
answer no end, except souring his temper,
making him jib, fretting the corner of his
mouth, wasting his strength, hurting his
wind, injuring his sight, lessening his sp.d,
throwing him down and breaking his knees.
All these il is fearlessly asserted, often pro-
coed from the use of this cruel appendsge.

tended as straight as his back in this man

A Welsh Classic.


H. H. BALLARD.
l1iood Cheer
An unlettered clergyman wanting place,
Ills manners were genial and pleasant his facet
Received a kind letter inviting him down
To preach to q church In large country town.
The principal business was harvesting grain.
And none OF the church members ventured to speak
word Of Hebrew. or Latin or Greek.
A scholar well grounded in classical lore
While a candidate might just as well stay away.
II he didn't quote Hebrew at least once day.
The divine about whom this odd story was told.
BY the Times" OF Manhattan, was cunning and
bold
Though he didn't know Latin. he hit on plan
For he thought, 1--WE shall see how much shrewi-
ness ayails,
Though cannot read Greek, I'm native OF Wales;
If few Welsh expressions | cautiously use,
1t mag rival the Hebrew in pleasing the pew-"
On the critical day, with exceptional grace
With well-attuned voice, an' well controlled face,
He read from the Bible passage two.
And remarked. my dear friends, this translation
won't do
To lie sure It's correct, but If beauty you seek.
Hear the rhythmical souni of original creek
Then boldly melody of Welsh he recitcd.
And market the effect on his hearers benighied.
The children gazed up with wondering stare,
Their mothers assumed an intelligent air.
While the deacons all nodded as much as 10 say,
That Greek by far ga- the most excellent way.
A still holder venture he hazar,led next,
BY 4 curious way of announcing the text
These words, as my hearers have noticed OF
course,
Have lost nearly all their original force.
In the Hebrew how clearly the thought flashes oui,
And more of his Welsh be proceeded 10 spout.
whcn what was his horror 10 spy near the door
Jolly old Welshman, just ready to roar
Overcome with remor-e and forcsaeing the shame
Exposure would bring IL his reverend name.
The preachers mad impulse AT first To run.
But the Welshman's round face 10 trimming with
fun,
Suggested possible plan OF escape.
Which none but terrified parron could shape;
lie bravely confronted that dangerous smile,
And coolly continuel his sermon awhile.
TIL at length without showing the least agitation.
He rallied himself fora final quotation
The rcr lering here is decidedly wrong,
quite different thoughts to thu Chaldec belong,
Then Nelshman in pulpit a. Wel-hman in pcw,
In the barbarou- dialect thsy alone knew.

As you hope for salvation, don't give me away"

A Ju0Qe IN Trouble.

Judge John E. Garner, of Spring
field, has been indicted for subor-
nation of perjury in connection
with the Hopkins-Knuckols MUIR
der case. The Indictment contains
several counts charging him with
attempts to bride witnesses in that
case to swear falsely in order to
make it appear that the killing was
done in self-defense. Judge Gar
ner is an attorney of some promi-
neDce, and was recently appointed
by the court to position on the
Referees bench, of which he is now
Il member. These are grave charges
to be brought against a man in such
high position and calculated to
soil the ermine of his judicial robe.
We infer that there are some
grounds for the indictment or it
would never have been found by
thirteen good and lawful men of the
county of Robertson. It would be
a very becoming act in Judge Gar
ner to resign his Office.
