upon NJ. Pasteur's incubation theory have
been so audacious as an article published
in to-day's Pail Mall Gazette, written by II
person who claims to have personally OBJ
served Pasteur at work The article al
leues that DR.. Billings brought the New
ark boys over to Paris for the express pur-
pose of making them notorious and quail
fy ing them as valuable attractions for the
New York show in which they are now
being exhibited. The writer declares that
Billings himself limited to him, while in
Paris, that the matter which was being
injected into the boys flesh was some
thing weaker than rain water and more
harmless than ordinary vaccine virus,

The Port Clinton Neps has the followir

The Port Clinton NeWs has the following
concerning the Lakeside Railroad:
It is estimated that the road, including its
equipment, will cost above $125,0O0. 1t is
eight miles long; begins about half mile
west of Danbury, which point will be known
as Marblehead Junction, and Danbury station
will be erased from the map. The equipment
of the road will consist of two Brooks loco
motives, four Pullman built coaches and as
many freight cars as will be needed. The
passenger trains will ruI the year round.
The company anticipate having all the bust
ness they can manage. They have not de-
termined on the number of stations and
switches, but there will probably be two or
three; the people along the line seem to be
willing to give land and aid in erecting sta
ton houses. Three or four trains will be run
daily both ways during the excursion season
to Lakeside. 1t is said that sixteen new lime
kilns will be built at Marblehead in a short
time. The road is principally owned by
Boston parties.

in their seats and face the door and get good
look at the person coming in, he may get
away if you don't.
5th. Fall asleep in the midst of the sermon
and snore if possible.
9Th. The young people in the back pews
should whisper and laugh occasionally; that
is what pews are made for and why they are
placed in the back end of the church.
7th. Gentlemen should chew tobacco,
Black Strap, if obtainable, and spit under the
pew and in the aisles. Then perhaps the di-
rectors will purchase spittoons and have on
hand several plugs in case of emergency.
sth. Never remove your hat until you have
reached seat, and then forget it for few
minutes. 1t shows that you are deeply inter
ested in the congregation.
9Th. Garry your whips into church; anum-
ber of whips in church looks beautiful.
10th. Always stare at strangers, it makes
them feel as though they we're recognized

medical lectures for the purpose of
studying anatomy. had been at, per-
haps, a dozen lectures when the human
subject had been dissected and dis.
cussed, but it so happened that in every
case the subjects had been men-sailors,
brawny, muscular longshoremen, in
the prime of vigorous manhood, who
had met their deaths through accidents
or murder One night there was the
body of "a woman on the table, and as
the lecturer laid open the cavity of the
abdomen with few deft strokes of the
knife he remarked:
"There, gentlemen, is the result Of
tight lacing." will never forget it,
The girl must have had in life what
one would call trim figure, but every
organ was pushed out Of place, was
cramped, distorted and deformed. The
liver, the heart, the stomach, the lungs,
were crowded by one another and
hampered in their duties. 1t produced
so strong an impression upon Inc that |

tablishment Of J. G. Saur is un-
usually interesting, inasmuch
as the Holiday Stock of Goods
are being arranged, which oc-
cupies the attention of the force
of the establishment day and
night. We believe we are safe
in saying that never before in
the history Of this house has
such display Of ornamental
and useful articles been opened
up to the eyes and tastes of oUr
citizens. The Little Dutch
man" has completely outdone
himself in his efforts to please
the tastes, and at the same time
accommodate the pocket-books,
of the citizens of Napoleon and
surrounding country.
As the Holidays are near at
hand, and knowing that it is
more blessed to give than re-
ceive, Saur has made it point
this season to collect stock of
articles from which none can
fail of finding something to
please, no difference for whom
intended, let it be father,
mother, brother, sister, aunt,
uncle, niece, nephew, cousin,
husband, wife, sweetheart, or
of whatever kin.
1t would be the next thing

ate all the articles suitable for

an idea of the extent and nature
of the stock, we mention the one

Col. Bob Ingersoll proposes that al
homes shall be made free from taxation.
Henry George, Col. Bob's present
teacher in politics, wants to have moth
ing taxed except the bare land. The
progressive Democrats, Ingersoll's and
Georges party, want all the land
divided up, SO that each man may have
home. Supposing that all Of these
statesmen have their way and attain
their purpose, and that no taxes are
put on anything but the land, and all
the land is put into homes, and tho
homes are all free from taxes, then
there will be one thing to do: This
will be to fall back on Horace Greeley's
plan, and pay all the taxes out of the
