In Chicago Roman Nowak, Bohemian
cabinet-maker, went to the house of his
divorced wife to get one of their children.
She refused him admission, when he fired
through a window, shooting her in the
head. He then blew out his brains, fall
ing dead on the steps. A letter was found
in his pocket directing the knights Of
Honor to use the insurance on his life for
the education of his children.

If we needed any encouragement, our expert
ence in the sale of SPRING OVERCOATs would
give it to US beaped full aud running Over. Who
would he expected to think OF a garment so dis
tinctly a spring production, while the heaviest
wraps are in orderg AID yet We have sold them,
day after day, in the very teeth OF snow and
frost, forcing the season as it was never forced
before in Hagerstown. There must be some at
traction of beauty of manufacture, or OF excel

VALDosTA, GA, July 20. 1882.
az sold one of your Patent Dust-Proof Cases
about ten months ago, and the other day 1t came
back to me with the request to make 1t wind
easier. On examination found that the stem
was rusty, and Inquired into the cause OF ii.
The gentleman stated 10 me that he was starting
some saw-log. that had lodged in the bend of
the river, when his chain caught in bush and
threw his watch into about twelve feet of water,
and he was about two hours finding il. When
he got it out it was running, and be thought all
right. In about three months be found that The
stem was hard TO turn, and sent 1t TO me.

pany claims for i, and recommend it to all rail-

..nn AyD HOUSEHOLD.

Cooo,N,rr PIEs.-Grate che pint Of fresh
,,co.nut quite fine beat ons-qaartsr of
,osnd of butter and one pound Of sugar
"a , crsam.like froth stir in the cocoanut,
and lastly, put in the whites of Ave eggs
i,,stsa to troth. These pies should be
baked in deep plates, with thin lower
crust.
Rich PUpp1NG.-An inexpensive but
delicious pudding is made OF one cup Oh
sugar, two cups of milk, two eggs three
t,blespoonfuls of flour rubbed smooth) In
little milk, one tablespoonful OF Dut0er'
flavor with nutmeg. A little fruit adds
very much to the goodnes Of the pudding.
Make a thin crust as for tarts; fill with the
mixture, and bake.
SCOTCH CAKEs.-Scotch cakes are eco
roniical so far as eggs are concerned, and
if made with care, will melt in the mouths
of children. 10 one pound of flour allow
half pound of butter and quarter of a
pound of sugar; let the butter stand in
basin near the fire to soften, but not melt;
when soft, rub it and the flour together;
then knead in the sugar. Roll out in
sheet half an inch thick; cut out cakes
about two inches square; bake until they
are of light brown. Put them away in
a stone jar, an2 they will in day or two
gather moisture enough TO be soft.
wHIrEwAsHING.-W hardly know a
more pleasing sight than, while whistling
along on the various lines Of railroads, to
see a farm house, with all its out-houses
and fences, exhibiting snowy whiteness
in striking contrast to the green fields. 1t
ut once impresses our mind that the occu-
pant has at least an idea of cleanliness and
beauty. Apart from all this, it is pres
ervation Of wood, and adds at least fifty
per cent to the looks of the place, and in a
sanitary point OF view its use cannot be
over estimated. Its cheapness places it In
the reach of all. Why rot use it freely?
HOG CHOLERA CURE.-During the last
five years my hogs have taken the cholera
four times, and have always cured two
thirds of those that were sick and stopped
il on the rest with little trouble and eX-
pense. When one is known to be sick with
cholera put the whole herd in close pen.
Get long neck bottle, put one gill Of milk
and half teaspoonful of pure carbOlic acid
in it. Let one man catch the heg by the
ears and set him up between his legs, hold
ing his head up, another man with bottle
i'm one hand and short stick in the other
KS thick as a mans wrist; put the stick in
the animals mouth crosswise so that he
cannot break the bottle in pouring the con-
tents down. Put him out of the pen fer
fear you might dose him twice, which
would be dangerous, as the acid is poison
Gus in large doses. Ifthey are not all well
In a week repeat the dose. l lever had to
repeat it, never separated them, but II
confined in pen l turned them out. The
government spent many thousands idol
lars TO find cut the best remedy Tor this
disease, and, if mistake not, carbolic acid
i'm small doses, given in some way inter
nally, aud separating the sick from the
healthy and burning the carcass OF the
dead. W as decided to be the best method
of stamping out this plague.-J. Il. Dodge,
IN Journal of agriculture.

Leavenworth Times: In New York
there is society called 'The Ancient
Arabic Order of the Mobiles of the Mys-
tic Shrine,'' to which some five hundred
idiots belong. The principal object in
becoming connected with this order is
to secure high sounding title. that for
which SO many of our people strive.
Americans who thus ape the modes,
manners and titles of orientals show
either weak place in their brains, or
else they feast their minds upon what
pleasures they might have were they
