A Lazy man sets fire to Barn--Horse
and Cow, Roasted Alive.
Fora new and easy way of cleaning
up around and back of harms In spring.
Graceville stands at the head.
The hired man of Father Fox, OF
that uillage, when ordered to clean up
around the barn last Saturday, took n
prospective view ofthe premises, and
during his meditation on the subject,
he concluded that, it would be a novel
way to burn the stuff, instead of load
ing it on wagon. He accordingly
proceeded to do so. The barn with one
cow and horse, burned up. \ lazy
piece of business to perpetrate, and
Father Fox is a heavey loser thereby

HIGHWAYHEN RETURN MONEY F0RC.
IDLY TAKEN.

A little over one month ago whilst a
circus was showing at Twenty-third and
Stout streets, a gentleman resident in
Denver and living at some distance from
the heart of the city, was, unknown to
himself, followed late one evening and
as he reached the circus grounds was
"held up" by two strangers, one of
whom held a revolver at his head and
demanded his money. Tremblingly he
obeyed, and they, as he afterwards re-
membered, as tremblingly received the
contents Of his pocketbook amounting
to $47.50. The highwaymen at the
same time became possessed of an en-
velope upon which was written an ad-
dress, and ascertaining from their vic
tim that it was his own made the state
ment that having been disappointed in
not receiving expected remittances and
having exhausted their means they had
followed him and resorted to this des-
perate scheme to get funds, but that
they we're gentlemen, as their appear
ance indicated, and they would refund
the amount Of the compulsory loan upon
their return home. Yesterday the vic
tim of this, at the time unpleasant
episode, received a postal order for
$3.50, being the amount originally
taken from him, in addition to S. for
interest on the loan. He says while he
is thankful at receiving his money again
he would much prefer another time to
loan his money in the orthodox way.

THE PERCENTAGE OF ACTIVE OLD MEN
ON THE INCREASE.

In young county like this, where
life is continually at fever heat, and
where action rather than reflection
carries the day, old age seems out of
place. In the staid old towns and cities
of England, Hawthorne tells us in his
"Old Home" that he observed that
old age came forth more cheerfully and
generally into the sunshine than among
ourselves, where the rush, stir, hustle
and irreverent energy of youth a.e so
preponderant that the poor forlOrn grand
sires begin to doubt whether they have
a right to breathe in such world any
longer, and so hide their silvery heads
in solitude. But "fast" as this country
and this period both proverbially are, it
is fact that the percentage of old men
who continue in active life, and who
do not show their years except to
close scrutiny, is on the increase.
Erect and active octogenarians, even,
are not unknown on our streets, whose
appearance still makes them pass cur
rent as being in the executive period of
life. The constant improvement in the
average style of living in the matter of
dwelling, food and raiment, perceptibly
promotes longevity and increases the
number of cases of it.

AMBER.

Some very interesting researches have
recently been made on the fora of the
amber-bearing formations of East Prrfs-
STA by Messrs. Goeppert and Menge.
In ancient times there must have been
in this part of Europe group of conifers
comprising specimens from almost all
parts Of the world. Among the splendid
specimens of the California conifera
were the redwood, the sugar pine, and
the Douglas spruce; and of the ex-
amples Of the Eastern States were the
bald cypress, red cedar, thuya, and the
Pinus rigida; from the eastern coasts of
Asia were the CHILEAN incense cedar,
the parasol fir, the arbor Vita, the
glyptostrobus, and the thuyopsis; and
the Scotch fir, the spruce, and the
cypress of Europe, and the callitris of
Southern Africa. 1t appears that the
deposits of amber for which the Baltic is
noted are the product of generations of
these resin-bearing trees. The richest
deposits are situate along a strip of coast
between Mcneil and Dantzic, though the
real home of amber has been supposed
to lie in the bed of the Baltic between
Bornholm and the main land. 1t rests
upon cretaceOus rocks and consists
chiefly of their debris, forming popular
mixture known as blue earth, which APP
pears to exist throughout the Province
of Samland at the depth of 80 to 100
feet, and to contain an almost inexhaust-
ible supply Of amber. Immense guam
titles Of amber are washed out to sea
from the coast or brought down by
rivulets and cast up again during the
storms or in certain winds. The actual
yield by quarrying is 200 900 to 800 900
pounds year, or five times the quantity
estimated to be cast up by the waves on
the strip of coast above mentioned.-

ITALIAN DOCTORS.

The October Century contains some
amusing experience of "a Foreigner in
Florence" who says of Italian doctors:
"Physicans have, like judges OF the
criminal courts, no social position and
no knowledge OF medicine, according to
our ideas They are, as Il rule, far
behind the age. They still cling blindly
to bleeding, unless they have changed
during the last few years, and weaken
their patients by the old system OF diet
ing have seen cases conducted with
such ignorance of the commonest laws
of nature as would make any of our
physicians faint with horror. Heat,
starvation, and dirt are their general
remedies for almost everything. In cases
of scarlet fever, (which are not common,
however, ---they order the doors and
windows to be carefully shut, that no
breath of air may get to the PATIENT
absolutely drawing the bed-curtains
around them; forbid washing OF any
description, even to the hands and face,
| and no change of bed or body linen
during the entire illness.
There is one malady prevalent in
tally which | sincerely believe to he
produced, nine times out of ten, by their
doctors, and that is military fever. I'm
less patients symptoms in the begin
ming of an illness indicate the disease
very clearly, the doctor, on the principle
of when in doubt play trumps,' pro-
nounces it 'miiare but there being no
eruption, which is an evidence of that
disease, they regard it as suppressed,
and so, very dangerous. They then
proceed to produce a rash by covering
the poor sufferer with as many blankets
as he can bear, excluding every breath
of air from the room Canning him, so
to speak,, and then forbidding any
nourishment saving the weakest of weak
broths. Now, as this special fever is
usually brought on by overheating, and
consequently should he treated by a
cooling system, they succeed in pro-
ducing the disease in its full glory, rash
and all, and they then set about curing
it, which of course, becomes a doubtful
undertaking, so weak is the patient from
heat and fasting.
"a friend of mine, spending few
weeks in Florence, was taken i'll with
what proved afterward to be an internal
cancer. She sent for Doctor T., one
of the most noted Of the Florentine
doctors. 1t was August and very hot,
and his orders were not only to shut out
the air and cover lherself with blankets,
but to remain entirely immovable-not
to stir hand or foot. She carried his
wishes out faithfully for twenty-four
hours-not even raising her hand to
brush a fly away-and then, becoming
nearly crazy with nervousness and weak
ness, she sent for an English physician.
If you had seen his look of [horror when
he came into the room!
"Open the window he almost
shouted; take off those coverings; get
right up, and lie on the sofa. Inaweek
you will be able to go on to Paris.
"And in week she did 60 on to
Paris.
1.-THE Italians love medicine, and
have the greatest faith in it, They take
it not only for every little ailment, but
after a fit of anger or grief"

That squirteth empty air?

To rake in aickels carelessly,
And fizz and fizz and tiZZ?
Full seemly proper scrveth he
The fiavors we may name,
And exc as siruptitiously
He draweth of the same;
Pineapple pale and ginger ale.
And berries, straw and rasp'
Then tutoreth he the throttle valve
To gasp and gasp and gasp.

4 DOGS FOUR TALES.
Explaining a Memorial Inscription That
Did Not Tell Enough.

Among the hundreds OF New Workers
in the Catskill Mountains the other day
were Cyrus W. Field, DR.. j. Marion
Sims, F. B. Thurber and Joseph Jeffer-
son. The visitors risked their necks
going down and up the rickety stair
ways, only to look at bare rock, over
which a mighty volume OF water was
not pouring. On their way they read
an inscription cut into the stone, about
noble dog that had, in 1876, leaped
down the precipice. asked the show
man, on reaching the top, how and why
the brute had done such an undoglike
thing.
ole was trick dog" was the reply,
"belonging to the circus that went
through here. His master left him on
the platform and started down the gorge.
The man got halfway down across
yonder where the stairs turn and then
whistled. The dog heard the call,
sprang up on the railing, lost his bal
ance, and went whirling down through
space to the rocky bottom, being OF
course instantly killed by the fall"
Five minutes after, Field and Sims
caught their breath, with the usual
difficulty, after climb up the stairs,
and used it instantly to ask about the
dog.
ale was a trick dog" said the ex-
hibitors of the dry cataract, "and be-
longed to-a circus.y Had been learned
to run after stuns and fetch 'em back.
The man what owned him throw'd a
stun over the railin' ofthis ere platform,
and the dog jumped over after it. That's
how it happened"
"Did you see it," Mr.. Field inquired.
al was a standin' right here when it
happened" and the man pointed out
the exact spot as conclusive evidence.
1t was his word against the guide
Thurber put the inevitable question.
Field and Sims had departed, and
turned away all but my ears so as
not to influence the man in his choice
between the two stories. Two? 1t
turned out to be a third.
"The dog was a p'inter," said he,
''and he hearn a partridge some'rs over
yender. He didn't know nothin' about
the gorge, cause the boardin' was tight
from the floor up to the ceilin', jest as
tits now. So he jumped clean over,
and that was the last of him."
hung around to see the earth yawn
and swallow him; but before it had
done so, Mr.. Jefferson came up. He
called for the dog story, ard got it like
this:
"Tne dog was 'normous big st.
Bernard. He belonged to a lady that
was stoppin' here at the hotel, and she
had child that he sort of guarded.
Well, that day the lady took the child
down the gorge. The dog was asleep,
exactly there where you're standin'
The child got dizzy and scared, half
way down, and Civ a scream. That
'wok the dog, and he leaped plum over
the rail, kerflop down to the rocks"
"And broke into half dozen separate
dogs" said 1.
"What makes you say that?" the
man asked.
because it needs separate dog for
each story"
"Look here, now" and his tone was
apologize in the extreme; "if you had
to send that dog down the chasm twenty
to thirty times day, the season through,
you'd feel like giving yourself little
variety"

A COMMON-sENsE VIEW.

When you see a medicine advertised, and
to its reliability, it is All easy matter, by put
ting yourself to little trouble, to ascertain the
reputation and standing of the manufacturer
Find out who makes it. How do they stand
at home? Are they truthful? Are they hon.
est. Do they pay their debts! Do they
know anything about medicine and its effects
If they are wanting in any of these, it is safer
to let their product alone; for in preparing
drugs, move than any other business, there is
the opportunity to cheaper and adulterate,
and the only guarantee we can have is the hon
esty of the manufacturer, and it does not look
reasonable that the proprietor of Ammen'i
Cough Syrup would be willing to let remedy
bear his name did he not know its worth.
