might incidentally say is edited by some
mighty good timber fer the governor

Inheritance BY Degrees.

It is doubtful whether there has ever
been more singular testament than one
which the family of rich iuhabitant of
Warsaw, in Poland, have had to submit
to, on pain of losing their share in the
estate.
Early in 1884 there died in Warsaw a
merchant who was known to possess q
comfortable fortune. He left sealed
will which bore superscription forbid
ding the opening Of the document before
the 10th of March, 1885.
On that date the family assembled at
the notary's in whose charge the will had
been left. The package was opened and
found to contain another envelope which
was not to be opened until the 14th ol
April, 1886.
On this second date the family assem-
bled again, only to find themselves put
off another year, and this was repeated
from year to year until, in 1890, the last
envelope was opened, and the will found
But new torment awaited the heirs
for the document was found to provide
that the entire fortune of the testator
which was in funds, and amounted tc
more than fifty thousand dollars, should
be deposited in the State Bank and left
to accumulate, the interest to be added tt
the capital until the year 1910, when il
should be divided among the surviving
heirs.

Nose Bleeding.

A mild attack of nose bleeding is ben
eficial and clears the system as would an
attack of illness. In the old or full
blooded such an occurrence may stave of
an attack of apoplexy. If much blood is
lost, or if the attacks are frequent, great
prostration will follow, and in some few
cases even death has resulted. Slight
attacks soon stop of themselves, the es-
Gaping blood forming q clot over the
bleeding part. 1t is always wise not to
blow the nose or pick it for day or two
after an attack or another one may come
on.
A person suffering from nose bleeding
should rest and lean forward, so that the
blood which escapes may run out of the
nostril in front, for if the blood is swal-
lowed it may cause vomiting or sickness.
Simple attacks are quickly cured by ap-
plying something cold to the spine, as a
cold door key or cold stone, as boys stop
it. More obstinate cases may have the
whole of the spine sponged with cold
water, and even the chest and neck as
we'll, the revulsive action Of the cold wa.
ter often stopping it.
To insert the fingers up the nostrils
and press on the bleeding part is some
times successful, 30 also is snuling cold
water up the nostrils, while some recon-
mend raising the hands above the head
to stop it. If very great loss occurs i.
will be wise to call in doctor, who will
plug up the nostrils if he thinks it nee

A Divers Bold Contract.

ALpENA, MICH, Feb. 5.-M. F. Chalk,
an expert diver of Detroit, has arrived
here to attempt to raise the wreck of the
Pewabic, which sank in Thunder Bay, in
12O feet of water, twenty-five years ago.
Four attempts have been made to raise
the vessel, in each of which the diver
lost his life.
The depth at which the work was to
be done was so great that the consequent
pressure of the icy waters was so enor-
NOUS that life was squeezed out.
Chalk has behind him several wealthy
men, who pay him $1,000 for each at
tempt, guarantee bis life insurance in
case he dies, and in case they are able to
bring up the wreck they agree to divide
the cargo equally with him.
The Pewabic is loaded with pig copper
valued at sl65,OO0. The diver has had
helmet made that will resist pressure
of $50 pounds to the square inch.
