4 Man who oouldn't be Poisoned.

A Mr.. J. A. Miller, for some years
reaident OF Forest Hill, aud sc'newha
notorious character IN that locaiiiy,
swaIlowed a large dose Of strychnine
i.., Sunday. with Suicidal intent. IL
ga.u.Arly an hour after the deadly
Jr,,, had been taken before the doctor
reached him. but by vigorous aPphca'
tiou Of the stJmach pump MS i'ie was
saved. IL may seem imp'sslo'e
TO some that he should survive
after having the poison IN MN
so long. but those who know him
think nothing strange Of the result. Re
liable men OF Forest Hill say that he
posses.es what might be termed gal.
rsnized. elastic stomach. He could eat
ANYTHING without nauseating him, and as
for quantity II was never known exactly
how much his stomach would hold. On
one occasion, it Is sad, he ate s'ght
amall cans OF oysters, several cans oi
peaches. besides crackers, cheese and
bologna sausage in proportion, and
wished II down with eight or Ten
glasses Of beer, and then afterward when
asked to sing a song ho wanted 70
know whether they expected him 70
sing on an empty stomach. 1t is said
also that he would sometimes catch mes
BY the handful and eat them just to show
what lac could do. At one time he ate
a mouse. head, ears aud hair, onh wager
of 81 80. These stories are told oi him
by reliable parties who declare earnestly
that they are the sacred truth. aud IN
view Of these facts II Is not no surprising
that he was able TO withstand ior 20 long
q time large dose Of deadly poison.

An English Girls Ambition.

But there is one thing which the En-.
glish girl keeps necessarily in view-a
good marriage. To reach it she changes
her venue with uascrupolous apostacy,
and she hunts down her quarry with re.
lentless persistence. To propitiate tue
owner OF coronet or millions. she alb
lures what she has deiiied, condemns
herself to pursuits she abhors, changes
her political opinions, if she had any,
or adopts fresh convictions with charm
ing spontaneity; wears nothing but
primitive roses or scoifs ut them, adores
the country or worships the town, ex.
tolls the army or exalts the law, dotes
on beardles, boys or toleratos mono but
middle.aged men. Disappointments do
not rebuke her; failures spur her on to
fresh efforts, and when at last the goal
is reached she instantaneously degener.
ates into the British matron.
