The GAUGE OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self. A light cold or slight head.
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass of, and it is only
when a case of full-dedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences
that neglect are fully realized. AS
preventive and positive cure for Coughs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting OF blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages of consumption, use Eilert'J Ex-
tract of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-
pepsia, Nervousness and all Bilious
Complaints, use Eilert's Daylight Liver
Pills. Both are guaranteed.

Children and Crime.

With regard to capital crimes, by the
ancient Saxon law the age of twelve years
was established for the age of possible dis
erection, when first the understanding
might open," and thence till the offender
was fourteen it was ''about the age of pu-
berty" in which he might or might not be
guilty of a crime, according to his natural
capacity or incapacity. Under the age of
twelve it was held that he could not be
guilty in will, neither after fourteen could
he be supposed to be innocent
Since the time of Edward III the law ap-
pears to have been more DESTROYS to meas
ure the capacity of doing i'll or contracting
guilt by Che delinquents understanding
and judgment rather than by any specific
age after the age of seven was reached.
Under seven years of age an infant cannot
be guilty of felony, for then, as Blackstone
says, a felonious discretion is almost an
impossibility in nature, but at eight years
old he may be guilty of felony.
The same author says that under four
teen, though an infant shall be, prima
facie adjudged to be doll incapax, yet if it
appear to the court and jury that he was
doll capax, and could discern between good
and evil, he may be convicted and suffer
death.-London Lancet.

Ulin on the Dannhe.

Ulm is most interesting town to ex-
plore-full of quaint steep gables, crooked
little streets, houses that nod across the
way to one another five centuries crowded
together in as many acres of stone and tim
Der, and often crowded to death; for the
town chronicle tells us that in 1885 15,0 0C
of the people died, that in 1900 every elev-
enth man was carried away by disease, yet
100 years ago the town numbered less than
1900 and today only about double that
number
Now, with a Prussian commander the
sanitary condition of the place is properly
attended to, although from commercial
point of view, the town suffers consider
ably from having all the space before it's
walls subject to the rules of war-no one
can build within cannon range unless he
promises to tear his building down when

ing to manufacturers.-P Bigelow

Do the lower animals know how to play
games? One remarkable instance would
seem to show that birds in their wild state
ago in for organized romps just like chill
dren at Il Christmas party. Mr. Andrew
Crosse, the distinguished naturalist, was
one day looking out of his study window
in house on the Quantock hills, From
this window he could see into courtyard
little distance away, which was sheltered
by walls and was remote from any noises or
disturbances of any kind.
by and by the naturalist saw a robin
engaged in dragging the apparently dead
body of another robin around and around in
a circle on the pavement. 1t looked just
rs If the live robin had fought with and
killed the other and was indulging in the
cruel triumph of pulling the lifeless body
of its rival over the stones, as Achilles
dragged Hector around the walls of Troy
just as Mr., Crosse had come to the conclu-
sion that the strange proceeding of which
he was privileged to be the witness was the
termination of a battle to the death be-
tween two bird enemies, the live robin
suddenly stopped and threw itself on its
back as though stark dead
Its wings were half distended and rigid
and it's legs upturned to the sky. Never
apparently, had there been a robin more
dead than it was. Meanwhile the other
robin went through an exactly converse
transformation scene 1t had only been
shammiug dead, and now woke up into full
and vigorous life. Selling on its feathered
companion, it dragged the latter in its turn
all around the same circle, and repeated the
process several times over. The conclusion
of the scene was that both birds few off to-

Among all people the sucking of the
wound has ever been considered the most
effective remedy of immediate application
for snake bites. In Africa cupping in
strument is employed in emergencies of
the kind to draw out the poisoned blood.
The ancients followed the same methods,
and when Cato made his famous expedi-
ton through the serpent infested African
deserts, he employed many savage snake
charmers, called Psylli, to follow the army.
They performed many mysterious rites
over men who were bitten, but the efficacy
of their treatment appears to have con.
sisted in sucking the wounds Washing

BENSON, A. r., Feb. %. --Considerable
comment has been aroused by the state
ment of a prominent Mexican official of
the state of Sonora, Mex, while en- route
from Hermosillo to the city Of Mexico,
that resurvey of the international
boundary line would throw sixty miles
of American soil into Mexican iurisdic-
ton. The change would include tho
large towns of Tucson, Yuma, Tomb
stone, Nogalos, Bisbee, Wilcox, Benson,
ella Bend and many smaller ones; also
San Diego, Cal, and as far north as San
Juan, Capist-ano. An immense amount
of valuable mining property would also
come under thenew deal also the entire
line of the southern Pacific railroad in
Arizona. While tho statement is not
credited rs being correct, it is gener-
ally underst BOD that the survey now
about to commence will show some
looseness, at least, in the original lines.
