AN individual named Mason, in Califo

AN individual named Mason, in Califor- mia, the other day, purchased fifty pound box of giant powder, deliberately took his seat on it, and with a lighted match touch ed off the powder and himself. Another person, of similar name, in New York, a couple of evenings after, with equal delib- eration "fired himself off at a crowd of people assembled on Broadway He still lives, however, and it is to be hoped all those present on the occasion were unhurt, save as to their moral susceptibilities. The difference between the two was that the man who is dead and resting in pieces was crazy California stage driver; while the living Mason is bowling republican poll tician from Illinois, who never drove any thing more important than the donkey cart that carries his own fortunes.

The Proper Way to Drink Milk.

"What did you drink ?" asked the
doctor.
"Nothing that could have made me
sick, | am sure" replied the patient.
"Only glass of milk"
"Did you drink it quickly7"
"NO quicker than usual"
81 thought so. Now let me give
you word of advice. Many persons
complain that they cannot drink milk
without being distressed by it, The
most common reason why milk is not
we'll borne is due to the fact that peO-
pie generally drink it too quickly. If
a glass of it is swallowed hastily it en-
tiers the stomach and then forms in
one solid, curdled mass, difficult of di-
gestion. If, on the other hand, the
same quantity is slipped, and three
minutes, at least, is occupied in drink
ing it, then, on reaching the stomach,
it is so divided that when cOagulated,
as it must always be by the gastric
juice while digestion is going on, in
stead of being one hard, condensed
mass, upon the outside of which only
the digestive fluid can act, it is more
in the form of a sponge, and in and out
of the entire bulk the gastric juice can
freely play and perform it's function.
Milk may be rendered more digestible,
and, for many, of more agreeable
taste, if prepared by slowly adding a
few drops of dilute hydrOchloric acid
to it, drop by drop, while stirring it at
the same time. By this means the
curd is broken up, and it is in more
favorable state to be acted upon by
the digestive fluids. You follow my
advice and you will have no more at
tacks of sickness such as the one you
are troubled with today. Two dollars,
please. Good day"

A Plea for Wayside Beauty.

The sense of natural beauty is unfor-
tunately not highly developed in the
average farmer. Some of the more
successful owners of the soil have that
instinct of trim orderliness which is so
conducive to agricultural thrift, but
often it finds unnecessary and harmful
exercise. To such we commend this
little plea from a contributor to the
new horticultural weekly, Garden and
Forest In these days there is no lack
of advice to plant trees by every road
side, and village improvement societies
are furnishing good examples of neatly
kept highways. But many of our
country roads are already bOrdered
with trees and shrubs and climbing
vines of Natures own planting, and it
is quite as important to preserve the
wild beauty of this spontaneous growth
as it is to provide for the more formal
and stately rows of elms and naples
which are planted on arbOr days.
Many officials in charge of our high
ways appreciate the value of trees
when planted in straight rows and at
equal distances, bnt a group of cock
spur thorn, or sassafras, or black haw
or thicket of sumach or hazelnut is
JOO OiIOH IOOhSu upOii DIS uiShS vi O.
ment and proof that the Overseer is
neglecting his duty to keep the road
side neat and clean. Miles on miles of
wayside beauty are sacrificed every
year to this mania for trimming up"
but the trees and shrubs spring up
again to clothe the desert made by
man. In smooth and level regions a
strip of green sward bordering the
wheelway and running under the open
fences into adjoining fields is always
pleasing, and it cannot be too neatly
kept. But in all billy and stony re-
giOns east of the Alleghenies no love-
lier road border can be conceived of
than the native trees and shrubs which
flourish wherever they are left to
themselves. Every one recalls some
narrow lane or byways with fern en-
brOidered thickets on either hand,
where Juneberry and wild plum and
witch hazel blossom above the roses
and honeysuckles and red root, where
the wild grape covers the nakedness
of the stone walls and the bittersweet
swings from the branches of the trees
overhead where wild flowers can be
found in bloom any day between April
and November where the brown thrush
sings and the rabbit makes her home.
Indeed, it Ould be difficult to name a
spot where there is more of natural
beauty and melody and fragrance than
a country roadside against which the
hand of Improvement" has not been
lifted.

ACCORDING to the Buffalo Echo John
son and Sheridan counties have finally
reached an amicable settlement. 1t was
found that johnson county had three
6fths and Sheridan county two.ffths of
the property of the old county. The
bonded and floating Indebtedness of the
old county was found to be s72, OO7.l7 on
MAY II, 1888, and the proportion of this
that Sheridan county must bear is $685.
sO2.s6 The value of the county property
was found to be S27, 900, on which Sheri-
dan %county's credit is $40, 800, leaving q
balance due to johnson county on May IL
of SIS, OO2. sc for which amounts Sheridan
county will issue interest bearing warrants.
The delinquent taxes prior to 1888 -gill be
collected by each county on the property
within its limits.
