He could do nothing but wait in
the hope that they would return.
Vain hope! Hours passed and they
came not back. They had evidently
gone in search of him, and would not
return until they found him. He sat
there until his limbs were cramped
and a suffocating feeling came over
him. Then the truth flashed upon
him--he should die here for the want
of air if they did not soon return.
He painted and gasped for breath; a
faintness came over him and he fell
forward against the wall. 1t slipped
back from its place and the air rushed
in. Clifton revived, and sitting up,
saw before him narrow passage run
ming between the outer wall Of the
building and the ceiling Of the room.
Scarcely knowing what he did, he
crawled through the opening and
stood within the passage.
1t ran only one way, and he walked
along feeling that he was making a
discovery of some sort, he knew not
what.

Horror of Mineral Poisoning.

Thousand of persons are poisoned
in America by the continued use of
Mercury, Iodide of Potassium and
other minerals, for various diseases.
The Mercury works its way into the
tissues, producing rheumatism and
decay of the bones. The Iodide of
Potassium eats away the coatingTOf
the stomach, and dries up the:gastric
juices which digest the food, land the
patient fingers along in agony Eor is
glad to die to get away from misery.
Swift's Specific is complete.antidOte
to all this poison. 1t Eliminates
Mercury from thel system, removes
the evil effects of IOdide ofIPOtassi-
UNI, and brings back healthIandIhap-
piness. Send your addressfor a copy

Paper slippers are the latest form in
which paper is introduced in new in
ventions. An Englishman has patent,
ed system of manufacturing slippers,
sandals, and other coverings for the
feet out of paper. Paper pulp, or
papier mache, is employed for the
upper, which is moulded to the desired
form and size, and a sole is provided
made of paper Or pastebOard, leather
board, or other suitable paper material,
which is united to the upper by means
of cement, glue, or other adhesive ma.
terial. The upper is creased, embossed,
or perforated at the iuStep and sides,
which renders them somewhat pliable,
and prevents their cracking while in
use.

One of the strongest points in a
really good COW is that she will con-
tinue to give good mess of milk
during a long time. Many otherwise
good cows fail in this respect. They
give large quantity in the first flow,
but soon drop off and are dry half
the year. The habit of the heifer
with her first calf fixes her habit as a
COW in this regard. 1t is, therefore,
not advisable to allow a young heifer
to drop second calf within year of
the first. 1t is better to wait, SO as to
have the calves fifteen months or
more apart, in which case the heifer
can be kept in milk a year or more.
