She Cured Him.

There is a man in town who hasn't
spoken to his wife for ten days. He is
so mad that he doesn't 60 home to his
meals, and all because she played a
joke on him. He had for years been
telling her that he had heart disease,
and that he would go off some night.
After hearing his talk for thirteen years,
she finally got tired of it, and conclud-
ed to try remedy that would prove q
radical cure (he being as healthy as a
yearling). A month ago she bought
one of those rubber bags for keeping
hot water to the feet, and one morning
when she had the bag at her feet for 3
couple of hours, she thought what a
joke it would be to place it on her hus-
bands stomach, he being fast asleep
and snoring. The bag held three quarts
and was as large as cows liver, and
as warm as a poultice. 1t hadn't been
on his chest and other parts, more than
two minutes when he opened his eyes,
raised up his head and said: "Jane,
my end has come" Sac stuffed the
upper works of her night-dress into her
mouth to keep from laughing, and then
asked (Which end, Charles?" at the
same time urscrewing the nszzle that
held the water in the bag. "He cried,
"My God am bleeding to death?" as
the three quarts of hot water poured
out. saturatlng him from head to heels.
He attempted to stop the flow of blood,
aud she struck light and asked him
if he had not sprung leak. He look
ed at the rubber bag, then went to sleep
on the lounge, and now thinks his wife
one of the meanest women in the
world.-Napa Register.

MARYLAND Girls.

At the battle of Antietam, Captain
Coleman Brown, of Georgia regiment,
was killed, and his sword was turned
over by DR.. Knott, surgeon of his regi-
ment, to young lady VINO had attract
ed his attention by her kindness to the
confederate wounded, and she provided
a hiding place for the weapon in the
attic of her residence. The name of
the young lady was Grove, but until
recently all that DR.. Knott could ascer-
tain was that the Grove family had re-
moved to Baltimore. Recently tho
arrival of Miss Julia Grove, of Mary
land, was chronicled in the personal
column of an Atlanta paper. Struck
by the name and her place of residence,
DIR. Knott addressed note to her, and
ia reply received an answer stating that
she was sister to the lady who bad
ministered so tenderly to the wounded
and dying at Sharpsburg. He then
called on her and related the circum-
stances connected with the conceal
ment of the sword. The lady prom
ised to have the old house searched on
her return home, and some time after
ward DR.. Knott received letter an
nouncing the success of the search and
the recovery of the weapon. A few
days later DIR. Knott received the sword
by express, and it was turned over to
Captain Browns relatives. When some
one spoke of the act of Miss Grove as
a graceful one, DR.. Knott, who is q
gallant widower, responded: "Mary

A Baby Camel.
New York Tribune

There has been an Interesting il
crease in the happy family of birds and
beasts which is assembled around the
old Arsenal in Central Park. The latest
conner is q young camel, which began
its career of earthly troubles on Sstur-
day night. Its first experience of life
was rare one for camel, for it found
itself reposing in heap of snow. Never
,heless, it did not pine for the hot
sands of the Great Sahara, which ought
to have been its native health, but pro-
ceeded to make itself as comfortable as
it could until day dawned and a keeper
removed the youthful quadruped to
mere comfortable quarters. For six
hours the little infant was not permit
ted to draw nourishment from the at
ural source. The old Mrs. Camel was
inclined to be somewhat ungracious
toward her little one, and had to be
tied up with strong ropes before she
would permit the caresses of her
babe. 8 aid babe is about the sizs of a
colt, and is so ugly that if it ever catches
sight of itself it will 60 off in dark
corner and die. 1t insists principally
of legs. These are long, cumbersome,
and apparently very much IN their own
way. The infant camel has a back like
any other persons. There is no hump
visible yet. The keeper says that the
young beast will sprout hump is the
course of time, and be as proud of it
as boarding-school boy Of the first
down on his lip. The infants neck,
moreover, is so short that it could rot
eat grass, if there we're any to eat, with
out lying down. This Slight inconven-
fence will stretch out and double on
itself in the manner most approved by
camels which have reached the years
of discretion.

Bad News for Presidential Candidates.

Pa1son Talmage said last night that
seated liz some unpretending law Office
or some gubernatolial chair, or in some
quiet farmhouse, is the man who will
be the next President OF the United
States. That settles the question, so
far as many prominent candidates are
concerned; for when Mr.. Talmage spoke
neither Mr.. Tilden, nor General Logan,
nor Mr.. Randall, nor President Arthur.
nor Mr.. Bayard, nor Mr.. Blaine was in
any one of the positions specified. Mr..
E imunds may have been in his law
utfice, for lawyers in Vermont some
times work very late at night, and CIV
errors Cleveland and Butler may have
been in their respective chairs. Is the
country's choice to be restricted to these
three gentlemen? 1t strikes MS that
Mr. Talmage took unfair advantage OF
all the others. If he had only given
them timely notice that the Church
was going to speak authoritatively on
the subject of the Presidency they all
could have borrowed unpretending law
offices or quiet farmhouses for the
evening, so as to qualify themselves for
the great race of next year.
