Who ever knew of shoe lace to break
anywhere except at the bottom hole, which
is exactly where it can't be spliced? There
is no plausible reason why it should break
there for it is subject to no abrasion what
ever at that point, but not single shoe
lace in the whole history of the world was
ever known to give way anywhere else.
This is pure, unaduterated malice; that
is all.
And there are times moreover, when in
animate objects exhibit fiendsh ingenuity
in these outrages against mankind This
is evidenced by the fact that when a man
comes home ct night and wants to light
the gas he goes all through his clothes and
invariably discovers lone match in his
vest pocket. He se;Zes it with joy it
eludes his fingertips and after five
minutes chase gets it in n corner
and trumphantly draws it out. 1T proves
to be toothpick. This always happens
and would be certain to occur If there We're

Charlotte, II. c., January 2l.--(Special) >
The auietude Of this city was disturbed
yesterday by the appearance i'll our midst

The impression she made on the medical
fraternity of Charlotte was that she was
a fraud, but her manner and famiIlal1ty
with medical literature kept the doctors
guessing for awhile. on entering one Oh
