An aged lady of New Brunswick.

An aged lady of New Brunswick,
N. d., short time ago swallowed about
a dozen false teeth that had become sep
arated from the plate while she was
eating. Her new food failed to have
any effect upon her, and in the course of
time she forgot about the circumstance.
One day recently the lady felt a pain OF
her right shoulder, and upon examina-
ton She found a hard lump. She con-
suited %herfamily physician, who opened
the protuberance with Il lancet and ex-
tracted therefrom u hard and white SUBJ
stance resembling porcelain. The tooth
swallowing performance suddenly came
to the lady's mind, who pronounced it
n OF her missing teeth. Since that
time the lady has been shedding teeth
from various parts Of her body, having
recovered already nine of the lost mas,
ticators.-N. Y. Times.

THE WESTERN scHooLMA'AM.

Not bashful, nor vet overbold,
And only Twenty-Five:
With hair like threads of cleaning geld.
With eyes of aZure-blue;
With little hands, with pretty face,
Just tanned a hellthful brown
She is the daisy Of the place,
Th flower of all the own
With kindly words, with friendship warm,
In aprons white and clean,
The children swarm about her form
Like bees about their queen.
BY love she moves and sways their hearts:
They think her wOndrOuS wise,
And all her gracious acts and arts
Seem perfect in their eyes.
Nc smiles to them seem half as sweet,
No frOwn so hard to bear,
No looks of pity so complete.
AS those her features wear;
No voice more dear than hers to hear,
In poetry Or prose;
No praise more pleasant to the ear
Than that which She bestows.
The vilage-boys, when she goes by,
Can scarcely speak or stir;
She is the object of each eye;
They fairly worship her.
Like some sweet fairy-sprite she seems,
A breath might blow away,
The spirit of their midnight-dreams,
Their idol all the day.
She draws them to the village-church
Far more than sermon strong.
With anxious eyes the choir they search:
They look at her and long.
And, when with splendid voice she Sings,
They lose their heads in love;
Their feverish fancies float on wings
Beyond the clouds above.
The grave old fathers of the town
Gaze with admiring eyes,
When like an angel she comes down,
They cannot hide their signs.
The buyOm wives. with RlanCeS sour.
Soon lead them from the place;
For they are jealous of her power,
AND enviOus of her face.
Her soul Is like a sparkling brook
That babbles on its way
Through sunny fields, through shady nook.
By banks with blossoms gay.
All day, at school, with patient grace
She rules the noisy crowd;
Then homewar1 walks with happy face.
And soul without a cloud.
In simple hat of plated straw,
In tasteful muslin gown,
Her handsome face and form I saw
While passing through the town.
/ watched her, while she sweetly smiled,
When children were dismissed;
I wished l were once more q child,
A cherub to be kissed!

convince those who had known the
young man intimately, but the fathers
verdict was accepted and the Coroner
recorded unknown"
The only one brought up to 10
o'clock in the morning who was unan-
imously identified, was a young man
named John Boyd. He was known
by his clothing, and this became the
only approximate means of Identified
ton. One man was known by a
patch on his boots, another by patch
on his shirt, and third by button
on his drawers. A solitary white
button OH this garment, satisfied the
mans wife who had sewed it on, that
the putrid corpse bearing no SEM
blance to man was her husband.
There may have been other men with
similar buttons On their under-gar-
ments, but the bereaved heart was
satisfied and the remains identified.
AS soon rs the bodies We're recog-
nized, or admitted to be unrecogniz-
able, they were taken from the plain
wooden boxes and incased in collins.
The collins were ranged around the
room, and were of neat imitation ma
hogany. Each coffin was supplied
with glass covering at the head, per-
hitting the upper portion of the body
to be seen without unscrewing the
lid. AS soon as the coffin bearing a
body was placed on fat-car the wo-
men and those not allowed in the
morgue would Chamber up the car and
peer into it. All morning and all day
the scene around the funeral cars was
pitiable one. The crowd kept increas-
ing until 500 persons were clustered
together near the tracks. Walls came
from the womea, heart broken sobs
betokening untold woe, and stout
hearted men who had worked in the
mine, and had saved themselves al
most by miracles from the awful rush
of waters, wept in company at the
crumbling clay. Tears trickled down
rugged cheeks, and fond mothers,
wives, and sisters wrung their hands
in fearless grief. A wife would be
told that her husband lay in certain
coffin, but, look ever so hard, there
were nothing to tell her they were
right.
By 10o'clock seventeen bodies had
been recovered, and these were placed
upon the funeral train of three pass
enger cars draped in mourning and
taken to Braidwood, where they were
inferred after religious services over
some of them, while others were TAX
en- directly to the cemetery.
Twenty-Five bodies had been taken
out today,o which twenty were ident-
flied. 1t was a noticeable fact that the
bodies were in a much better condi-
ton while in the mine than after the
removal to the outer air. They began
to smell Immediately after The boxes

1t Will Not Hin.
TLitchfeld News Ledger. I

The placing of Mr.. Bierman at the head
of their ticket by the democratic state
central committee was done with a pur-
pose. 1t was not for past public service.
1t was not for popularity as he is but little
known, even among his own countrymen.
We must therefore look for the motive
somewhere else. The indications are that
they were in hopes to work up a clanish
sympathy and thus swerve the Scandina-
Wan voters of the state from their fixed
republican principles. What would fur
Their indicate this Is that they have induced
parties to start a Scandinavian paper
at Minneapolis, in the supposed in
terest of Bierman and his co.Democratio
laborers. We have too much faith in the
true Republicanism of the Scandinavians
to believe they can be diverted from the
party they have ever shown allegiance to
by handful of chaff held out to them for
the moment, only to be snatched back in
to the rapacious nav of the Democratic
party, so soon as it shall have worked hay
oc enough in the Republican ranks to en-.
sure it working majority. The Scandin-
avians know who have been their villifers
in the past and they also know the party
that has ever given them fair represen-
tation. They will not break friendship
and principle in one to wag as tail to a
party that is noted for playing good Lord
or good devil to capture few votes.
