The Cause of Yermin.

Says the poultry Nation: Lice do
not attack fowls that are in good con
dition us soon as they do those in an
impoverished state. Lice and poverty
90 hand in hand among fowls, and it
may be claimed that the presence OF
lice causes the fowls to become poor,
which is true; hut if the fowls are TAT
and in good flesh the lice are repealed
to a certain degree, as they are not
partial to oily carcasses, much prefer
ring the poor, thin fowls as their vic
tins, which they soon destroy. With
slean quarters, a dust bath, and lib
eral feeding, the fowls Will rid them
selves of vermin, and do it SO com
pletely that they will not again be
troubled unless the breeder compels
his fowls to live IN filth and disease
breeding places The same may be
said of the disease which follows lice.
Fowls that become the prey of lice
become weak and sickly, and are
not able to ward of disease, and
therefore become subject to it much
quicker than those that are healthy.
But if the poor fowls are attacked,
contact carries the disease among
them all and the whole flock suffer,
instead of yermin causing poor con-
dition, the reverse is the case.

''Noshinr Of the kind! nothing Of

Nothing of the kind nothing of
the kind !" gasped Mr.. Want.
''Bui Jones had a better idea than
that" resumed :, Mr.. Gimblet. HE
suggested instead that Smith should
do as he proposed, and leave him be-
hiGd. This arrangement would suit
both of them. Smith would have
more capital to make fresh start in
another country, while Jones would
remain behind and pose as a martyr
You see, sir, crash was inevitable /;
Jones was bound to have lost every
thing, and he preferred to do so under
circumstances that would secure pop
ular sympathy and induce his friends
to come forward Besides, of course,
he was to have part of the swag ON
the quiet"
No. I'll swear, not a farthing, "
cried Mr.. Want, vehemently. Its
it's lie, all of it, he added, evident
ly beside himself.
There is precious lot of money
gone, Mr.. Want, " said Mr.. Gimblet.
Look here, Mr.. Gimblet, said Mr..
Want, suppose everything had hap
pened precisely as you say, what
could you proves"
II should leave that to others, re-
piled Mr.. Gimblet, evasively.
"But nobody coald prove anything.
Do you doubt, if | had done as you
suggest, 1 should have taken every
possible precautions AS regards your
wonderful discovery about the letter
having come from Spain"
"Well2' inquired Mr. Gimblet as
his companion paused.
II deny it, but still-name your
price!"
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1884-05-08

Henry Clay was forced By ill-health
to abandon his visits to the Capitol
in the winter of 1S51-'52 and to re-
main in his room at the National
Hotel, hoping that when spring came
he might return to Ashland and die
in the bosom of his family. Those
who were permitted to see him during
that dreary winter say that there was
hardly strength enough in his hands
to convey food to his mouth, and that
he was helped to and from his bed
like a feeble child, but, like an old
forest oak, he was beautiful in decay.
The lustre of his eyes was undimmed
and he greeted his friends earnestly
and kindly. His voice continued to
be all sweetness and melody. except
when It's tones were moved by that
bodily weakness which made it pain
full for him to speak, snd it was al
ways painful for him to speak long.
When the last hour came he had at
his bedside lis Oldest son, Thomas
Hart Clay, and the Rev. DR.. Butler,
rector of Trinity Episcopal Church,
with which he was in full communion.
His last moments were disturbed by
the music and shouts of the Wings,
ratifying the nomination just made at
Philadelphia of Winfield Scott.
When his death was known the
next day, political differences were
forgotten in the touching encomiums
of the departed statesman, and the
sincerity of tone in which regret
found utterance from every tongue.
There could not have been a more
sincere demonstration of popular re
gard Other men have reached the
Presidential chair, but no one has
ever attained the post which Henry
Clay held in the hearts of his coun-
trymen. Mrs. Clay, who had never
been much at Washington City, was
at their home in Kentucky, and was
then in her seventy-frst year. She
had been the mother of twelve chill
dren, four of whom died in childhood,
and only three of whom were then
alive.
When Mr.. Clay left the State De
partment in 1929, he presented all his
personal papers to Major-General Jes-
sup of the army. General Jessup,
who was his warm friend, was his
second in his duel with John Ran
dolph, and had in his possession all
the correspondence and imprinted
instances of that celebrated M citing
1t is to be regretted that he could not
have written his "reminiscences of
"Harryof the West.

A merchant traveller at dinner re
quqsted the waiter to BRING him a

1t was rare indeed.

A bird sang sweet and strong
