A Dseey Cow.

We hear good deal about the value
Of trained and tame animals in assist.
ing herders to manage unruly focks
and herds. The shepherd dogs about
the stock yards are Of almost incalcu-
liable value in driving stock. The COW
ponies of long experience play . not
unimportant part in helping the boys
to handle the unwieldy herds. Occa-
siOnally when steer gets on Q wild
rampage he can not be managed until
surrounded by a few lazy, good natured
beeves, which act as decoys to make
him forget his tormentors. At loading
places on the plains COW men frequently
have trouble in getting herds into tho
loading pens. 1t is said that at Dickin-
son, d. T., where 90 many Montana
cattle were loaded last year, there is .
COW which earned about ous thousand
one hundred dollars LAT yeor In leading
herds into the pens md preventing
stampedes. The COW b "a 10 20 into
big herd, run around fdf awhile and
got the cattle to follow her. then run
into the Enclosure, the others following.
Her owner receives five dollars per
head, we are told, for her decoy serv-
ices. If this is true it beats the milk or
beef business. -DrovsT' Journal.

A FRIEND INDEED.

How His Confederate Action EnabasA
Bridegroom - Rajsy Liberty.
A novel mode Of executing warrant
Of arrest for debt was adopted by ono
q the bailifs of the East Kent county
court The bailiff was in quest Of .
young man residing at Throwley, who
had on previous occasions given great
deal q trouble, the bailif being every
time frustrated in his attempts to catch
the debtor. Having heard the young
man was to be married at Throwley
Church, Croucher, the bailiff, betook
himself to the sacred edicfie, arriving
there just after the bridegroom had en-
tered to await the arrival of the bride.
Croucher very considerably decided to
await patiently outside until the mar
riage ceremony was over, and then to
serve the warrant on the bridegroom
as he came out Of church. Mean while,
however, q friend of the debtor came
along, and, suspecting the nature Of
Croucher's mission, got into converse
ton " til him, ascertained the amount
that would satisfy his demands, and
paid Il on the debtors behalf. The BRIDE
groom was this enabled to 20 ON his
honeymoon ins,ead of passing the first
few days of married life in her Males

A Little Book, Full Of valuable Informa-
tion and Rich Humor.
With the advent Of every year there
come new inventions, new discoveries
and new ideas, but certainly there
could be no happier idea than has been
carried out In q little book, copy of
which we have just received. To it the
best humorists and comic artists of
America have contributed, and when,
for example, we find the rich humor of
''Bill Nye" illustrated by the quaint
conceits Of Upper, Of Puck, it can readi-
ly be understood that the work is of the
most original character. m Quad"
Wade Whipple," r. X. Munkittrick,
Opie T. Read, and others who have af-
forded amusement to hundreds of thou
sands of people throughout the land,
are each represented by some char
acteristic production. The book,
which is published annually by
the Charles A. vogeler Company,
of Baltimore, Md, is the 81.
Jacobs Oil Family Calendar and Book OF
Heath and Hun'or for the Million for
1856. Besides the original contribu.
tons in prose and verse, it contains a
calendar for each month in the year,
with rising and setting of sun and
moon, dates of eclipses and church fes-
rivals and list of the most important
events of the worlds history. The two
special articles manufactured by this
house are St. Jacobs Oil and Red Star
Cough Cure. The wonderful efficacy
of the former as conqueror of pain, is
recognized all over the world and it
costs only fifty cents bottle. The lat
ter-the new twenty-five cent remedy
for coughs and colds-coutains no OPT.
ates or poisonous narcotics and is in.
dorsed by public men throughout the
country. The book is now being dis.
tributed in large cities by carriers; and
in small towns and villages it can
be had through druggists. In cases
where it can not be obtained through
either Of these mediums, it will be sent
