MCDOUGALLS' SHEEP DIP,

McDougalls' non.poisonous sheep DIP and
cattle dressing, scab specific and insect eX-
terminator on sheep, cattle, horses, dogs,
poultry, etc, has been used with great success
in this county for several years. 1t instantly
eXterminates all ticks, lice and maggots; is
the only true specific for scab, and finely
stimulates the growth of the fleece, making
its use very profitable. When used at II
special strength il also waterproots the tieeces
thus affording the animals great protection
from cold and wet. In the United States
Great Britain and many places abroad it is
now generally adopted-having to Il large
extent displaced the use OF tobacco, arsenic,
lime and sulphur, and poisonous mixtures.
1t has important advantages over such dress

A pretty but mystifying trick can be
done with wooden toothpicks or matches.
The problem is to make with twelve picks
four squares, as in the diagram, and to
change the positions of four picks, leaving
three squares instead of four. These must
all be joined together as at first, and be of
the same shape and size Although this
appears easy to solve, yet many people will
find it to be a perplexing proposition.

Keep Out of Debt.

From the Pnnadelpma LeuBor.J
Every one who has fixed income Of any
kind can and ought to regulate his expen-
ditures 80 as to bring them within it.
This is a habit which should be inculcated
in the very earliest years. The child with
an allowance for his pleasures, be it ever
so small, should never be suffered to ex-
coed it or to draw upon the future. The
youth should be taught to undergo any
self-denial rather than to borrow the mon
ey to obtain qualification. There is more
true independence in this lesson than in
hundreds of shouts or boasts of liberty,
which too often only convey the idea Of
casting off duty and obligation.
Such instruction, however, will be use
less while example points the other way.
The father and mother who live beyond
their means, who incur debt for the pleas
ures of the table or of dress, or for the
vanity of competing with neighbors and
keeping up certain style of living, or for
private indulgence of any kind, need new
er expect to cultivate in their child an
honorable determination to owe no man

Advances at the Opentng-Bears Ag-
gressive-Pressure on the Changers,
Coalers and Industr1als-Burlin
ton the Feature of the Regular List.
NEW YORK. Feb. Is.
Railroad bonds were more actual than usual OF
late, and the sales reached 81, 1s5, OO0 of which
Atchison incomes furnished $23s, 900. The tone
was irregular but generally steady, and the final
changes are insignificant.
The bears were more aggressive in the stock
market to-day than for a week past and the
prices of Burlington, Sugar. G. G. and St. Louis
and Rock Island, as well as the coal Stocks were
depressed materially. Stocks opened at advances
extending to n per cent, but the pressure was
begun immediately and the opening prices were,
in the great majority Of the list the best of the
day. The downward movement was almost con-
tnuous, though exceedingly slow in most stocks.
The Changers, Coalers and Industrials felt the
pressure most Severely, and Burlington, Jersey
Central and Sugar were most conspicuous for
tho losses sustained. The specialties, as rule,
were neglected, but Mobile and Ohio was again
specially strong, and the advancement Of the
shipping bill in the house of representatives was
sufficient to give Pacific Mail squirt which ena-
bled it to score large advance. Burlington was
the feature Of the regular list, but there was a
marked Increase in the activity of all the lead
ing stocks, owing to the effort of the bears to get
prices down, and undoubtedly the short interest
was increased by the operations of the day. Sill
yer was active, but moved within the narrowest
limits, closing practically unchanged. The mar
ket finally closed dull, but heavy, at about the
lowest figures.

and grammer, and left him to work out
the problem for himself. A few weeks Ia
ter they met again.

A Young Lawyers Lie.

A young lawyer in an eastern city Sc
cured one of his first clients in this way:
He was attending card party and noticed
that an old and wealthy citizen had taken
a note for sixteen dollars from his pocket
to keep the score on. He spoke to him
about it and was told that the note was
worthless. "But, sir, I am sure can COL
lect it for you," the limb of the law re-
piled: s'Well, you can have half of it if
you do" said the owner, and handed it
over. The young man failed to secure the
money, and was about returning the note
when thought struck him.
''Mr. -, have collected that note for
you," he said. ''Whata You haven't,
thought exclaimed the delighted capital
list. eyes, sir, and here's your half" the
lawyer replied, taking from his pocket
eight dollars of his own hard-earned cash
and giving it to the old man. The result
was that the capitalist concluded that if
the young lawyer was capable of collect
ing such debt as that he was equal to
anything, and he transferred all his extern
sive legal business into his hands

AN UNKNOWN HORSE.
Supposed to be the Fast Bronc

Supposed to be the Fast Broncho
PAGER b. b.
Herman Fox has at his training stable a
horse whose arrival in this city has caused
considerable comment and has been the
subject of many rumors among horsemen,
who, as far as known, are firmly convinced
that the unknown is the celebrated bron-
cho PAGER B. B.
The information which Mr.. Fox gives
regarding the identity of the horse is evil
IDENTIFY intsl led to convey the impression
that his new horse is nothing more than
saddle horse, but this statement is not
credited.
B. B. is u roam gelding that was one of
the most surprising race track performers
of last season. He was kept on the Cane
range during his early years when he was
the property of Gray & Howard, whose
side. He was started in races last season
and was SO often victorious that his fame
increased with every race until the close
of the season when he had obtained the
low record of 2:131. At Terre Haute he
forced the fast PAGER Hal Pointer to win
the first heat of a race in 2:09a, when B. B.
was at the throat latch of the winner.
One account of this heat states that
Hal Pointer had his victory by only six
inches. This performance went on record
as being the fastest heat ever trotted or
paced in race. Hal Pointer won the next
heats on the same conditions in 2:12a
and 2:13.
The pedigree of B. B. does not appear to
be established beyond doubt, but he is
said to be sired by Veto horse and out of
Copperbottom mare.
The horse in Mr.. Fox's stable has the
roam color and the brand which B. B. is
known to have,
