A cold in the head causes much discomfort
and annoyance aud if of frequent recurrence
often produces serious results. The membrane
of the nasal passages becomes intlamed and
stopped up, an acrid and poisonous virus is
formed, sores form in the head, Deafness
headache and roaring in the ears ensue and
the sufferer finally discovers that he has
Catarrh. This oathsone disease is by many
considered incurable but never fails to yield
to the power of Elys Cream Balm. This is
an article of undoubted merit, not liquid

Guitean's Poisoned Bouquet.

The Washington correspondent of the
Chicago NerS interviews the warden of
the jail, General Crocker, as follows:

to cheat the gallows by presenting her
brother with a poisoned bouquet was

1T is" replied the general. "Thc
night preceding the execution Mrs. SEQ.
vile called to see him. She was told
she could not except in my presence, and
that | was at home ill. She carried in
her hand beautiful bouquet of roses.
She asked permission to present them to
her brother, which was granted. AS she
handed the flowers through the grating
she said: Notice the centre flower espe-
cially. 1t is white and cmblematical of
your own purity and loftiness of purpose
She thea departed. | took the notion to
drive over to the Jail that night. My re-
sponsibility was rapidly drawing to an
end. and | wanted to be sure everything
was shipshape. When | was told about the
boquct | sent for it. 1t did not occur to
me that there was anything wrong about
it. 1 merely asked for it as matter of
prccaution. Upon being told what Mrs.
Scoville had said about the white flower.
| examined it more carefully and dis
covered that it was detached from the
others and supported by long, slender
stick which had evidently been forced
into the centre of the boquet after it was
finished. This rather unusual arrange
ment aroused my suspicious. While ex-
aiming it more closely a white powdery
substance fell into my hand. sent for
one of the chemists of the Smithsonian
Institute, who pronounced it arsenic, in
sufficient quantities to kill half dozen
men. Mrs. Scoville's idea was that
Guiteau should chew the bud, for it was
really nothing more, and in this way es-
cape the galOws by committing suicide. :"
"Why didn't Guitcau do thisN

"Was there any affection between him

cold as fish, l shall never forget Mrs.
Scovile's last interview with him. Said
she: We'll, Charlie, | suppose you must
die. | trust you are prepared.

When we were both out of sight the lit
tie Jerseyman gave the string Jerk and
pulled the split stick off of the birds
beak.
CHOW holler, blame YET exclaimed
the boy.
"And that crow did holler, and, just
as had been the case before, OH there
came the colony of crows, as wild, fierce,
frantic, and noisy as ever. They circled
above the captive bird, and finally a
number of them dropped down to see
what allied him. One lit on the strug-
giing bird and was instantly clutched
by the captive, and held tightly in its
grasp, both birds making hidcous out
cry.
Giles got him. shouted the little
villain by my side. Come on an let's
get him
"Thc boy ran out, and the flock of crows
swooped and cawed, and darted all
around him. lie grabbed the newly
captured crow, which was held tightly
in the claws of the decoy, and with two
or three mastery twirls wrung its neck.
Then he grabbed the other one by the
outlet and stopped its cries, whereupon
the flock of crows retired again, APP
parcntly believing that they had done
their duty. Satisfied that the cunning
little Jerseyman could do all that he said
he could, let him off from making the
crow clutch any more of its kind, and
paid him for full half dozen. At my
request he released the crow that he had
clutchcd himself, and it flew away and
joined the others in the woods, as though
nothing out of the usual in his every day
experience had occurred. AS we walked
back to the village my canny companion
remarked:
Say, boss, if ye ever want any moro
clutchin' done, all We got to do is to come
up here an asst for Grimesey.'
$50 say that things l never heard of
before keep happening right along, for
I'll swear l never heard of 'clutchin'

Fall Selections of Seed Corn.

| In view of the serious loss which has been
suffered in the great corn producing region
| of the United States in recent years from
seed of poor quality, u circular just sent out
| by Professor Morrow is most timely. The
advice he gives about early selection is not
only to secure seed that will terminate, for in
ordinary years that can be found in almost
any crib. But such selection has more i'm
portant use in maintaining the highest STAN
dard reached by any variety and improving
it to still greater degree. Any farmer can,
with little cost or labor, select few bushels
| for his own use of such varieties as have
proved most successful in his neighborhood,
and by continuing the practice great advance
in the quality of the crop can doubtless be
made 1t is well to try new varieties, but it
is not safe to abandon variety which has
stood the test of experience until it has been
demonstrated that there is a better one for
that particular locality.
Any variety may be improved by contin-
| ued careful selection of seed. ANY variety
will deteriorate if seed be carelessly or I'M
wisely selected. Selection of seed from the
bin, especially if this be done in the Spring,
only gives opportunity for the choice of sat.
siactory ears Selection in the field, in the
early Autumn, gives opportunity to deter
mine the comparative earliness of the chosen
ears and the character of the stalks on which
they were produced. And in both these re-.
specls great differences will be found in corn
of the same variety, even when growing in
the same hill. The proper process is to Sc
lect such ears as have the greatest number of
desirable qualities.
! There is no necessity that corn designed
for seed should fully mature on the stalk.
Experiments have shown apparent strong
vitality in kernels which were shriveled up
from the ears having been pucked long be-
fore maturity. There can be no objection to
plucking seed corn some weeks before it
would do to put in the crib. The essentials
in treatment Of the corn seem to be that both
kernels and cob shall become pretty
thoroughly dry before there is severe freez.
ing. Fire heat may be used to secure this,
but is usually not essential The old plan CT
tricing up the ears, pair by pair, by the
husks, and hanging them up in a dry, warm
room, will almost certainly give good results.
Better still is the use of the cork-screw wire,
put in the butt of each ear and slipped over
a vertical wire.

HEAVIER THE CROSS.

Heavier tho cross, the nearer heaven;
No cross without, no God within
Death, Judgment from the heart are driven
Amid the worlds false glare and din,
Oh happy with all his loss,
Whom God hath set beneath the cross.
Heavier the cross the better the Chrstian
This is the tombstone God applies,
How many garden would be wasting,
Unwept by showers from weeping eyes!
The gold by fire is purified;
The Christian is by trouble tried.
Heavier the cross the stronger faith;
The loaded pain strikes deeper root;
The vine juice sweetly issueth
When men have pressed the clustered fruit
And courage grows where dangers come,
Like pearls beneath the salt sea foam.
Heavier the cross, the heartier prayer;
The bruised reeds most fragrant are;
If sky and wind were always rare,
The sailor would not watch the star;
And David's psalm had neer been sung,
If grief his heart had never wrung.
Heavier the cross the more aspiring;
From wales we climb to mountain crest;
The pilgrim of the desert firing,
Longs for the Canaan of his rest
The dove has here no rest in sight,
And to the ark she wings her flight.
Heavier the cross, the easier dying,
Death is friendlier face to see;
To life's decay one bids defying,
From life's distress one then is free
The cross sublimely lifts our faith
To Him who triumphed over death.
Though crucifed the cross carry
The longer, may it dearer be;
And lest L faint while here tarry,
Implant Thou such heart to me
That faith, hope, love may flourish there,
Till for the cross my crown L wear
From the German.

and then replace the earth over them. The

the horn just as far as he can go, and remain
there trying to get through, as he cannot
turn round, and moles never go backwards.

Famed the Flies from Baby's Face.
Pittsburg Chronicle TelepraDh


Dog stories are always in order, provided
they are true. A gentleman in one of the
suburban wards owns a fine specimen of the
spaniel breed, which is very fond of children,
and when any little ones visit his masters
house constitutes himself their companion,
playmate and guardian. A few days ago a
lady with an infant visited the gentleman,
and in the course of the day the child was
laid on pillow on the floor to amuse itself
for time. The dog took his place near the
little one, as usual. The day was hot and
the flies bad, and they made the baby the tar.
get of frequent attacks. This rendered her
restless. Doggie watched her for few min
utes and then, walking close up, with his
nose or paw drove away every fly as soon as
it lit on the baby's face, and did it so gently,
too, as not to disturb her in the least. The
dogs actions attracted the attention of the
mother and others, who were filled with as.
constituent at his thoughtful kindness This
story has the merit of truth.
