1t Was Called the Gallows Plant.

There have existed many queer super
stitions regarding plants, but none more
grewsome than that attaching to the man
drake. The roots were formerly supposed
to bear strong resemblance to the human
form, and are figured as such in the OLD
herbals, being distinguished as to sex by
the respective roots having long hair or
long beard. During the Middle Ages man
drake was declared to grow only upon the
scene of some terrible crime, or where
some one had suffered the death of felon.
Some writers said that the plants of it
which grew under a gallows were the re-
suit of corruption dripping from dead
''bodysn, left long in the chains. 'When
dug up" they said, "it would utter great
shrek or terrible groan." "If man
pulls up a mandrake" says an oldtime
writer, "he will surely die soon thereafter.
In common prudence it is best to tie dog
to the plant, and thus escape the evil thy
self -

Burns vary in depth, from blister on
the surface to an actual destruction of a
part of a limb. In addition to pain, the
burned person Is in danger from an i'm
preston made on the nervous system
known as shock. This often has to be
treated, as well as the shock itself If the
clothes are on fire throw the victim down
and wrap a blanket around. Then add
water and cut the clothing away, not dis
turbing any parts that stick. Cover the
burn with a layer Of sweet oil, lard or lin
seed oil, vaseline-any fat not rancid.
Then wrap in cloths to keep the air out.

Do we ever need reminder IN our hurried
lives of the grace that lies in the kindly
spoken word? 1t may be as we pass a
friend in a crowded shop, or nod to her as
we hasten by her door on our morning
walk to the market or the ferry, that we
utter the gentle greeting, leave behind Us
the flash of the happy smile, and brighten
a day that was perhaps overcast Kind
ness costs little. Why should we not be
lavish of it in a world where nobody stands

Such is a brief resume of the bloodiest
encounter among newspaper men for many
years, the outcome Of the most sensational
Sunday journalism yet known in Ohio-a
journalism as questionable as the results
are bloody. In the worst days of the old
dueIing times in the southwest, when, says
Harriet Martineau, duels were fought every
Sunday morning on the levee near New
Orleans, and there were thirty one serious
street afrays month-at that time, be it
repeated, women were always spared. In
all the fierce recklessness of the Rocky
mountain mining camps women were safe
alike from direct attack as well as vile in-
sinuation; but the writer's of the Columbus
Sunday press dealt with each others female
relatives in language too plain to be quoted.
T. A Levering is proprietor OF The Sun
day World and A. c. Osborn was its city
editor; W. j. Elliott and his brother,
Patrick J., own and edit The Sunday Cap
itol. An extremely innocent personal
appeared in The World to the effect that
Mrs. Florence j. Elliott WAS visiting at
the home of her brother-in-law, William J.
AS it was an error, Mrs. William j. Elliott
was vexed, and so her husband opened q
war on Levering. Then began such throw
ing of mud as Is rarely witnessed
Osborn and Levering charged that the
Elliotts had let their mother die pauper.
The Elliotts retorted that Osborn was a
thief, seducer and blackmailer, and that
Levering had bought his paper with the
profits of a house of bad repute. This was
published few days after Levering's mar
riage Osborn in The World charged
William J. Elliott with being debauche,
drunkard, a wife beater, and an En-
glish spy in the Irish camp, and in the
same issue Levering intimated, or rather
openly stated, that he had held intimate
relations with a relative of the Elliotts.
Then every one KNEW there would be
blood" 1t came the day after the publ
cation.
The Elliotts opened fire in the midst of a
crowd that was looking at the parade. The
first result was the death of Washington
