sOFTENING OF TIE BONES.

The Peculiar Case of Hector Davis. in "a

Hector Davis lives in the hills long

the spot. We knocked at the door ofthe
Davis cabin and the first. thing that
struck ny attention upon entering was a
middle-aged man sitting bolt upright
and supported by rude and peculiarly
shaped frame work. at once entered
into conversation with him and ldiscov-
cred him to he q man of fair intelligence
and eager to tell all about himself, in
voice that was as strong as my own. 8,

but bis fingers all rolled up together like
a cabbage leaf in q, mushy Sort of way
that made me glad to, let 60 of them.
Taking hold of his limbs they yielded to
the pressure until they were flattehed
out to twice ither proper width. y The
only indication of bone was in his skull,
which, while pliable almost "as sole
leather, still offered kind of protection

The high prize of life, the crown-
ing fortune of man, is to be born to
some pursuit which finds him IN en-
ployment and happiness.
Life is easier to those who can take
it lightly, who can bend their backs 10
any burden, and be grateful for every
ray of sunshine.
Look out for the man who makes
liberal use Of the personal pronoun "a, "
in conversation. for the chances are
that he is falsifier.
A man that hath no virtue in him
self ever envieth virtue in others; for
mems minds will either feed upon
their own good or upon anothers 8
evil.
To express no more than is really
meant is one of the first steps towards
correct speech just as careful pruning
is as important to the vines as rich
soil.

PERIsHING AT THE STAKE.
A Negro Burned Alive for Killing
the Wife of his Employer.

Fort WORTH, Texas, April Is
Charles Gibbs, negro. worked for a
farmer named Louis Moore, near Ly-
ons Station, in Burlson county, on
the Santa Fe Railroad. He had been
in Moore's employ about two months.
His record is said to have been a bad
one, including murder and term In
the penltentiary. Moore went to Ly-
ons on last Saturday afternoon, leav-
ing his wife and two children at home
children at home and the negro at
work in the field.
Mrs. Moore delayed the evening
meal until after o'clock, and as her
husband was still absent, she conclud-
ed not to walt any longer. Just as
she and the children sat down Gibbs
came in through the kitchen, and
noting the vacant chair, asked if he
could not sit down with them.
Mrs Moore thought that the man
was joking, and made some jocose re-
ply, when the fellow repeated the re-
quest in manner that indicated he
was in earnest, at the same time NOV
ing toward the seat usually occupied
by Mr.. Moore. Then Mrs. Moore told
him he could not sit at the table with
the family.
A quarrel ensued which was cut
short by Gibbs grabbing an axe and
striking. the woman on the head xii.
ling her instantly. Mr.. Moore re.
turned just in time to see the negro
running away, but did not suspect
anything wrong until he had entered
the house. Then he gave the alarm,
and pursuit was commenced and kept
up until Sunday evening, whan the
murderer was caught, ABOUT twelve
miles from where he committed the
murder.
He was taken back to Lyons, ar
irving between 10 and ii o'clock at
night. By this time public feeling
was highly incensed. A crowd Sc.
cured chains, tied the negro to post
oak sapllng, and. tearing down an old
dry house, made a funeral pyre around
him. Then, saturating the wood with
coal oil, match was applied, and the
wretched murderer was soon burned
to death

How Watch Cases are Made.

In 1875, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu-
facture of the james Boss Gold Watch Case.
Now over fpe hundred are employed, and the
number is constantly increasing. Therea-
son of this increase is this: In the James
BosS Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight
and subject to wear is solid gold, while the re-
mainder, which only lends strength to the
case, is of stronger metal than gold,
giving gold where gold is needed, and
strong, elastic metal where strength and
elasticity are needed, combination pro.
ducing watch case better than solid gold
and at oNE-HALF the cost. .,rS ~ x,y.
Over 100000 of these cases x "a
have been sold, and every jeweler in the
country can testify to their quality and
merit. , ,, ~ . ,oos
o, VI Marsh, Of the Democrat bought Jss Gs Boss'
short time ago, when purchased 1t, and sold 1t TO
customer The case showed no signs OF wear, except
that natural to any case, and am satisfied can be
sold the James Boss Case for many years,
and the parties who bought the first ones are carry
ing them to-day, well satisfied as though they had
bought solid gold case costing twice the money. 1
regard them as the only cases OF this kind jeweler
should sell who desires TO- give his customers the
