on the streets for o mere tribe.
Farmer Greene took Q fancy to them
and bought dozen Of them. When he
reached home he had no bottle or lar to
put them In and threw them into the hog
lot with bucket Of spoiled potatoes.
A few days afterward one Of his lsrg-
est hogs became sick, refusing food, and
lying down In Q corner grunted % II in
constant pain. No signs of disease
could be discovered, but few days after
the hog died. The cause of death was
discussed in the usual family council
around the supper table, and 1t was
finally concluded best to cut up the hog
and hnd out, II possible, whether or not
the disease was contagious.
This was done, and the cause Of death
was instantly apparent The animal

stomach to cause II 10 grow. The bulb

August. One is from the pen of the
Speaker, the Hon. T. B. Reed; the
other is by Democratic leader, who

In connection with the suggestion
that the Chinese Government may re.
taliate against the United States by ex.

John Russell Young's article in the
August North american Review will be
read with interest.
"A Georgia man has just finished
writing the entire Old Testament on his

every word is distinctly legible."
