THE WORK OF BURGLARS.
Two Dwellings and a Store Entered and
Attempts Made on Other Places.

Yesterday morning early, burglars, who are
supposed to be boys Of inexperience in the work,
entered the dwelling of Mrs Matilda Gauss, No.
Fletcher avenue, and the grocery store of Henry
Simmons, corner Of English avenue and Dillon
street At the Gauss residence the lower win
dows were up, but the shutters c!osed. Out of
these they cut one or two STATS unfastened the
catch, and walked into sleeping room. the in
mates being undisturbed. The burglars
took away a valuable set of amethyst jew
elry, valued at fifty dollars, and other articles
Prom Simmons's place they carried 800
worth of cigars and tobacco. Three other
houses east of the grocery were tried, but no
entrances were effected.
About the time this work was going on in the
city burglar of more experience began a job on
the house of one of the jewellers in Brownsburg,
this county. Here the upper windows were
open, and by means of o ladder he got into the
room, when he covered the aroused owner with a
zevolver and went through his clothing, taking
from the pantaloon pockets $38 in cash. The
owner was badly frightened, and allowed the
burglar to escape.

About Advertising

Poster advertising, rock and fence paint
ing, and flooding the mails with circulars
and postal cards are some of the farms Of
advertising which disgust more people than
they attract, and even when effective, are
a very wasteful mode of reaching the pub
lie.
In the selection ofa proper medium many
points ofvaluo might be taken iuto consid-
Grafton by advertisers. Newspapers which
are not respected and faithfully read are not
good mediums for advertisers. Newspaper
that are purchased to while away a hall
hour on street car or elevated railway, and
are not carried home do not sell anybody s
wares. Such papers are 10 better than
circulars aud almost as wasteful.
The experience of entsrprising and sagac-
ious business men demonstrates that the
best results attend advertising in home
newspapers-those which go into families
and are read by one after another in the home
circle,-[ New York Newsdealer

EpifheItoma.

This word-now SO sadly familiar from
the case of our great fellow-citizen, General
Grant--is one of the names of carcinoma, Or
cancer. 1t is used because most cases of
cancer are connected with the epithelium, -
the membrane which lines most of the inter-
nal organs and cavities of the body,-or
the epidermis (scarf-skin), which covers the
outer surface and is essentially uf the same
nature.
All our tissues-muscles, membranes
nerves, fat, boues, etc.-are built up by, and
consist mainly of cells. These cells select
from the blood, transform and assimilate
the elements essential to their activity,
growth and perpeiuation. The multiply by
division. Tumors result from a morbid
multiplication of cells.
Benign tumors simply crowd-as they
grow by the multiplication of cels-against
the adjacent parts.
In malignant tumors the multiplying cells
infiltrate into the adjacent parts, and thus
constantly enlarge theil deadly area; or
they are taken up by the blood vessels and
lymphatic vessels, particularly the latter,
and borue to distant glands where they set
up the same deadly action.
A cancer of whatever kind is always ma
lignant, though hard cancer, of which an
epithelioma is one, is not so malignant as a
soft cancer in which the ce Is preponderats
over the fibrous tissue. What is now called
a sarcoma, " hich was once thought to be {
cancer, is benign tumor generally, bu
may be malignant 1t differs from canoe
mainly in having its cells separated from
each other by intervening substance. Il
the latter the cells lie against each other
several hundred of them perhaps-in (otheI

DO You Want q Boot.jack4

Chapman, the tobacconist at Seventh and
Orange streets, has boot jack which he is
giving away. There are beautiful nickle
plated boot-jacks, not only well adapted for
drawinga boot, but for throwing at cats
that persist in holding midnight concerts on
the back yard fence. But there is a condi-
tion upon which these boot-jacks are given
away. A certain number of tags ale put in
as many packages of tobacco and the person
purchasing the package containing tag,
gets boot jack. A certain number OF
packages cannot fail to produce the desired
boot jack. Now all who have been freUted
into a bad humor over taking off tight boots
should lose no time in going to Chapman's
and getting one of his beautiful nickel plated
boot-jacks, in the manner prescribed.

TARTAR INRoADS.
The Russian War Opens the Flood
gates of Tartar Incursion.

The doctrine of Nautilus that population
increased IN geometrical ratio while the
capability of the earth to sustain human
life increased in an arthmetical ratio only,
though not in the present century receiving
any direct controversion, yet on account OF
the strange conditions developed since the
grim cogitations of that occult philosopher
appeared and influenced thought in this
special direction, many facts largely infu-
encing the theory have brought themselves
into view and must in the future, be accept
ed as factors influencing it.
For many centuries now we have been
without any of those periodical outpourings
of finnumerable hordes of Tartars and Mon
gols from the great central plains of Asia.
That is to say such as those of the Goths
and the Huns, the Gepidae--the barbarians
under Alaric, or Zenghis Khan. Many CEN
turies ago Central Asia, the cradle of the
earth, poured forth its periodical harvest OF
humanity, wilsnomads, clad in untanned
sheepskins, who ate the quivering flesh OF
the slaughtered animal and drank its warm
blood. Swarming in myriads upon the
plains of the South and West they pillaged,
slaughtered and devastated everything iu
their way. The records show that whole
territories we're wasted and cities annihila
ted. In some instances not vestige o.
