The Deliriuma of Cocaine.


Cocaine, the new an@sthetic, which as

promises to become familiar antidote, car

The victim does not sleep or care to, so

The Railroad UeUs,

To know tho American you must see all
aides of him. On train between Jersey
City and Paterson, q day or two ago, n
poorly dressed woman, carrying baby in
her arms, walked through two coaches and
was unable to find seat. The railroad Hog
was there. In a dozen cases he had whole
seat to himself, and he meant to keep it.
The woman finally found refuge in the
smoking car, and by and by the Hog went
forward to enjoy Havana and found her
crying.
What's the matter?"
Baby is very i'll, SIR"
And where are you going?"
4" To my sisters My husband is dead,
Ind have no home now"
" Leave you any money"
" Not dollar, sir"
" Umph Sorry for you. Let me hand
you this"
The Hog has been robbed of his bristles.
Woman's tears had melted his selfshness.
He returned to his car, gathered the other
Hogs about him, and said:
Come down. Poor widow-sick baby
no home. Come down."
The Hogs went down for their wallets,
and in ten minutes the sum of $40 was put
into the woman's hand, and the Boss Hog
observed
There-thsre-it's all right-not a
word! Now come back here !"
And as she followed him into the coach
dozen Hogs rose up and insisted that she
take their seats, and all gathered round her
to voice the sentiment:
Poor woman Poor baby ISN'T there
Iomething we can do for your"
The railroad Hog can't be crowded, but
40 can be melted.

Nothing, SAYS bio Lewis, is SO terrible as
severe neuralgia; and beyond a doubt, girls
acquire it often enough by the conditions Of
school life. Headache in a school girl
usually means exhausted nerve power through
overwork, over-excitement. over-anxiety, or
bad air. Rest, good laugh, a country walk,
will usually cure it readily enough to begin
with But to become subject to headaches
is very serious matter; and all such nervous
diseases have nasty tendency to recur. to
become periodic, to be set up by the same
causes, to become an organic habit of the
body. For any woman to become liable to
neuralgia is a most terrible thing. 1t means
that while it lasts life Is not worth having. 1t
paralyzes the power to work, it deprives her
OF the power to enjoy anything. it tends
toward irritability of temper. it tempts to the
use of narcotics and stimulants So says
DIR. Nelson, and go say 1. girl who finds
herself subject to neuralgia should at once
change her habits, if but to grow strong in
body. OF what use is education with ill
health? A happy girl must be healthy one.
The Greeks educated their girls physically !;
we educate ours mentally. The Greek
mother bore the finest children the world
ever produced. The Greek education of
girls developed beautiful women, and their
beauty lasted till old age. The beautiful
Helen was as handsome at fifty as at "sweet
sixteen. ''-Erery Other Saturday.

The funeral of Mrs. Nancy Plimpton, whose
death at the advanced age of ninety years &C.
Cured Oct. 18th, was very largely attended
on Sunday. She was we'll known and great
ly esteemed by the many friends she has
made since she came to Litchfield sixty-fve
years ago. 1t was her often expressed wish
to be permitted to care for her husband while
he lived, but Infinite Wisdom decreed other
wise, and their long aud happy union was
severed by her death.-Mrs. Lucinda Lair
stepped through hole in the sidewalk near
the residence of DIR. Adams and catching at
the fence rail to save herself from falling,
disocated her shoulder. DR.. Adams attended
to her injuries but she has been unable to be
about since.-The measles and humps are
very prevalent in town, making general havoc
with the schools where they are in session.
Mr. E. ID. Crane, at the age of eighty-seven,

his eyes by DR. Holt of Portland. He had
been entirely blind for five years previously.

A Mormon Bishop.

Bishop Cannon, who is leading the Mormon
revolt against the United States authorities,
ia one of the most powerful men in the Nor
mon church. He was a delegate from that
Territory to Congress until practising polyg
amists were forbidden to hold office. He has
been here every winter and has had control
of what is known as the Mormon lobby at
Washington He is next to the head of the
church and in time will be the successor to
TAYLOR, who succeeded Brigham Young. He
is a short man with very stout figure. He
very broad. His legs are not in proportion
to the size of his trunk. His head is very
large and quite round. His hair is gray and
thin upon the top He is always smooth
shaven. His face is very high-colored and
doube-chinned His eyes are a pale blue,
watery aud bullying. They have what is
called the peeled-onien expression. His nose
is a square-based hook. He is one of the
most enthusiastic of fanatics. He was born
in Utah, ard has imbibed Mormonism from
his very birth. He sincerely believes that
martyrdom is necessary for the future pros
peritv of the Mormon church. He has coun-
selled his people to first resist by strategem
the attempt of the government to suppress
polygamy From his character and talk
am certain that he will stop at nothing where
his religion is sssailed. have heard him
say over and over again that the Norm ms
would never give up polygamy, and that no

5000 men in this country who know
better. These are the same workingmen
whom this same Democratic Administa-
ton turned out Of Roach's shipyards when
they forced veteran shipbuilder to make
an assignment for political effect. This
is not mere campaign talk. The foremen
of the different shops and yards, who
knew the mechanics and laborers well,
speak tor them, and tell pitiful tale Of
misery and want. 1t is easy enough to
say that these men might find work else
where. Some of them have-in sweep
ing the streets. There is. of course, no
place for them in other shipyards. IT re-
suits like this prove that the Democratic
Administration is friendly to the working
man and careful of his interests, then we
do not understand the logic of plain facts.
