Gold from a Kitchen Stove.

II know man." said cable car pas
senger, ''who came to Chicago three
years ago when he was just of age, with
out dollar. He hired out to butcher
and delivered meat from basket which
he carried on his shoulder 1t was hard
work, and the young countryman didn't
get fat on it, but he kept his eyes open
and resolved to imp. owe the first oppor-
tunity to better his condition AS butcher
boy he went much into alleys and back
Yards, and there noticed that the ash
piles which came from the house stoves
had a good deal of coal in them, He
bought hand-cart with his savings, re-
signed from the butcher shop, and went
around and made arrangements with
householders to draw their ashes away.
His charges were surprisingly low, and
by hard work he managed to earn dol
lar and half day in this way. But
this was only half his earnings. He rugged
mp a sieve through which he screened all
the ashes he hauled, and the coal thus
secured was worth about dollar and a
half more. He then went into the bust
ness on larger scale, hiring laborers and
furnishing them carts and rigging up a
large screen whe.e load after load could
be dumped. He has boys to pick out the
cinders and clinkers and wagons to haul
the coal away and sell it. He now hauls
unsifted ashes away for nothing, but
charges for removing sifted ashes. A
good many people who used to sift the r
ashes don't do it now, saving themselves
the trouble and getting the refuse hauled
away for nothing. That butcher boy is
making about $4,000 year. Chicago

LATE issues Of the New York Herald
have been filled with exposes of the
Florida humbug. The bayous and
miasmas OF that unhappy region have
been sold at extravagant prices to
confding people from Scotland and
England, and on the most fiagitious
misrepresentation. After having
confessed the truth as TO the late
depredations OF the frost upon the
orange trees of the Flower State we
are now being treated TO false stories to
the effect that the first accounts were
exaggerated, etc. The fact is that Flor
ida is now undergoing the experience
which Louisiana recorded at an ear
lier day. Ten years ago Louisiana
produced ten times as many oranges
as she does to-day. Reason; The in
eyitable recurrence Of low tempera-
lures which kill both the fruit and
the trees OF the citrus family. Flori-
da, beginning later, had to strike her
triste experience at a later date
That is all there is to this matter.

There are hosts of men and women
who, to coin a phrase, are only half alive.
That is to say they seldom,if ever have an
appetite, are nervous, weak, fidgetty and
troubled by numberless small pains and
aches. In the presence of vigorous, ex'
uberant vitality, they seem mere pig.

frequently dosing themselves, swallow
ing enough drugs in the course OF year
to stock an apothecary's shop OF average
dimensions. This Of course, defeats in.
stead of furthering the end in view, viz;
the recovery OF health and vigor. Were
they to seek it from an unfailing source
of vitality, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
how different would be their case. Then
yigor would return to their debilitated
frames, the glow of health to their wan
cheeks, their trembling and uncertain
gait would grow firm and elastic, appe.

give a relish for the daily food, were IT
ever so coarse, and refreshing sleep
would crown the tasks of the day.

Oss of the pleasing and encourag-
ing signs of the development OF Los
Angeles OF late is the success which
has attended the founding OF the

has added one hundred thousand dol,
lars in premiums to its ample capital
and these premiums have been re-
tanned here. II, according TO the old
saw, a penny saved is a penny

The conspicuous success OF this pio'
neer venture will doubtless shortly
lead TO the investment Of other sums

COLUMBUS. o., February 22.-Judge
WyIie, of the Common Pleas Court, this
morning decided the case of Daniel j.
Dalton, clerk Of the court of Hamilton
county, on writ of habeas corpus. He
was arrested at the order of the House
of Representatives for contempt, in re-
fusing to produce before the House the
returns from Precinct A, of the Fourth
Ward, Cincinnati, for the purpose of
being photographed, and also for refus-
ing to bring them outside of Hamilton
county without order of the court. The
application was dismissed and Dalton
was remanded to the custody Of the Ser
Qeant at Arms. Dalton was not in town,
and the Acknowledgement states that
unless he arrives by the first train he
forfeits his recognizance, which is in the
sum of $4,000. The relator has the
alternative of either producing the re-
turns, as requested, or serving a speci-
fed time in Jail.
