A CHICAGO dealer advertised folding
bed by placing it in show window and
employed a colored boy opening and
closing it apparently, The local humane
society interfered because the work was
thought too severe for the lad, but the
committee felt very cheap when the furui
ture man took them down into the cellar
and showed them 2 stout Irishman, who
furnished the real power for opening
and shifting the bed by means of rope
and a system of pulleys.-B0stOn T}GU-

An Arkansas farmer writes that
last year, when coons made havoc in
his corn field, he went to the drug
store to buy strychnine with which to
kill them. By mistake the druggist
gave him morphine, and the next
morning he found his field full of sleep
ing coons. He advises the use of
morphine instead of strychnine.

Humble Heroes.

There are men of worth and honor,
Who are ever brave and true,
Who are strong to work and suffer
In whate'er they find to do;
And although their lot be lowly.
Though they ne'er be known to fame.
Though the crowd should pass then
coldly,
They are heroes, just the same.
There are those who daily labor
Turning up the stubborn soil,
Winning home and food for loved ones
By the hands unceasing told.
Though they never gain the friendship
OF the rich and proud of earth.
'Mong the worlds renowned and noble
There are none of greater worth.
He who does his duty bravely.
Though ii lead through humble ways,
Who would scorn an evil action,
Needing neither blame nor praise,
Who would not withhold his helping
From a suffering brothers needs,
Surely is as much hero
AS he who does greater deeds.

Keep a Diary.

No family should be without a diary.
It is customary to poke fun at young
folks who make the attempt. Many
diaries are faithfully kept for about a
week of the new year and then for want
of material are given up. The diary
should not be the record of one PERSONS
life alone, but should embrace the whole
family. The new year is good season
for starting such a work, and it would be.
well to get book already dated. Begin
its use by inserting under the proper
dates the birthdays of every member of
the family and of as many of the uneles,
aunts, cousins, and near kinsfolks as pos
sible. By getting moderately large
book-folio size is not too large-a record
of many years can be kept in one book.
1t will be family date-book rather than
a diary perhaps, but as the years roll by
it will serve to recall all the important
family events. Births, marriages and
deaths, the time when the children first
went to school, the days on which one
and another Of them united with the
church, the date of the removal from one
home to another, possibly the date of a
visit made more than usually interesting
and many other events will suggest
themselves. If there should be nothing
to record, then do not make any entry.
Some dates will bear many entries. And
be sure that every day some member of
the family looks at the record, so that at
the breakfast-table the due announce
ment of the anniversary may be made.
This will recall family history, which is
too often ignored. Birthdays will be
remembered, the memory of the loved
and lost will be cherished. Incidents of
bygone days will be called up, the past
will be lived over again, with pleasure
often, with profit certainly, if profit be
sought. By all means keep a permanent
or, if you will perennial diary.

Against the wooded hills it stands,
Ghost of a dead home, staring through
Its broken lights on wasted lands
Where old-time harvests grew.
Unplowed, unsown, by scythe unshorn,
The poor forsaken farm-felds lie,
Once rich and rife with golden corn
And pale green breadths of rye.
OF healthful herb and flower bereft,
The garden plot no housewife keeps;
Through weeds and tangle only left
The snake, its tenant, creeps.
A lilac spray, once blossom clad,
Sways before the empty rooms;
Beside the roofess porch sad,
Pathetic red rose blooms.
His track, in mold and dust of drouth,
On floor and hearth the squirrel leaves,
And in the freless chimney's mouth
His web the spider weaves.
The leaning barn about to fall
Resound no more on husking ewes;
No cattle low in yard or stall,
No thresher beats his sheaves.
So sad, so drear, It's seems almost
Some haunting Presence makes it sign;
That down yon shadowy ldlf5 some
ghost
Might drive his spectral kline

THE DEAN POLYGAMY CASE.
Incidental Thereto is a Provo Tn.
lawful C0habitation Case.

The Dean polygamy case is serving the
purpose of unearthing other cases of i'm
portance, whether it shall result in con-
viction for that gentleman or not. On
Tuesday Deputy Marshal Tom Smith
went to Provo, where he met Deputy
Gleason, and the two busted themselves
in subpenaing witnesses for the above
case. 1t had been understood that
Florence Ridges was visiting the Love-
ridge family, at Provo, and thither the
officers proceeded with bright hopes and
plentiful stock of subpenaes. Lo.
and behold, their inquiries for
Mrs. Loveridge disclosed the appreciate
fact that there were two Mrs Loveridges,
and Mr.. Smith lost no time in tumbling
to the whole situation. He accordingly
subp9naed the two ladies, Mr.. Loveridge-
and his daughter, assuring them that they
were wanted on the Dean case.
On the way up from Provo last evening
Deputy Smith concluded that sure case
had been accidentally run on to. and
upon his arrival here he made out all the
necessary complaints and warrants

and while this gentleman was an
occupant of the witness room.
and after sufficient testimony had been
elected to persuade the officers of Love-
ridges guilt, Mr.. Smith served the war
rant upon him, and at II O'Clock to-day
he was taken before Commissioner Nc
Kay for examination. He waived all
action, and gave bonds in the sum of
81 800, his wives and daughter being also
required to give bonds. There appears
to be not the slightest doubt that Mr.. |
Loveridge will find an unanswerable case
Of unlawful cohabitation against him, and
possibly one of polygamy also. The
parties are all bound over for appearance
1t the Provo court and will return
south tomorrow morning. The officers

MAYOR ARMSTRONG In THE TOLLS.
The Deputies Raid His Residence
for Evidence I'm a q. C. Case.

And now it is Mayor Armstrong who is
brought into the tolls. Yesterday Deputy
Franks accompanied by Deputy Hurd
visited Mr.. Armstrong; residence in the
Eleventh ward and asked for Mrs. Arm
strong. The young lady who answered
the door, who since, by the way, proves
10 be Lizzie Siddoway, the supposed
polygamous wife of the Mayor, informed
the Deputy that the lady wanted was not
in, and it was not known when she would
be. Mr.. Franks asked if any of the family
were home, supposing that the person to
whom he was speaking was the SER
want girl. She brought a son and
daughter fMr. Armstrong into the par
Tor, and Deputy Franks subpenaed all
three of the parties. Perfect consterna-
tiou succeeded this act of the officer, and
while Miss Siddoway burst frantically
into tears the youngsters bolted for the
doors. Mr.. Franks, however, proved
equal to the emergency, and very soon
his work, leaving the
children to obey the subpenaes
In the meantime Captain Greenman
and others visited Mountain Dell, where
Mr.. Armstrong has considerable property,
and summoned quite number of persons
ound on the premises.
This morning the parties were all taken
before the Grand Jury, and Mayor Arm
strong himself was seen hanging around |

s claimed that the officers are in posses
ion of very conclusive evidence OF Arm
trong's guilt, and it is intimated that
here may be established a graver case

waited with general interest.
