PADDY O'DOwD'> ROMANCE.
4 tnster County Rsncher Does the Enoch
Arden Act in Newark, y. J..

The presentation OF a plain. matter
OF fact and elderly citizen ike Paddy
O'Dowd of Birney in the sensational
role Of an Enoch Arden is something
that those who knew him in this county
were totally unprepared for, and yet it
seems that none Of the conditions neces-
sary are wanting. After residence IN
this county that is coeval with that Of
the earliest settler, he departed two or
three weeks ago for the east and now all
the eastern papers are retailing the ro-
mantle story Of his return, which Is re-
lated in the following style:
NEWARK. n. J., June 6-When Pat
rick Dowd. after an absence OF twenty
seven years. turned up at his home IN
this city he found that his wife. believ
ing him dead. had been married thirteen
years to Thomas Higgins. Mrs. Dowd-
Higgins received a letter about fourteen
years from the chief Of police at Louis
VILE. KY. saying that her husband died
in St Louis from yellow fever. She
wore mourning for Dowd almost to the
time she married Higgins. After her
later marriage IN England to Higgins,
they came to This country and settled in
Bloomfield. where Higgins purchased a
house and lot and gave them to his wife.
Higgins was about TO go to work when
Dowd arrived. Mrs. Dowd Higgins rec
ognized her husband at once. and fell in
faint. When she revived Dowd told
Higgins who he was. The second hus-
band did not believe the story until his
wife confirmed I: Both husbands talk.
ed the matter over. which ended in
Dowd telling Higgins that II he had
anything around the house that be
longed TO him personally, he had better
take il and get out. Higgins has re-
tanned lawyer, and So has Mrs. Higgins
who says that she will apply for a
divorce from Dowd on the ground of
desertion, as she is happy and contented
with Higgins. Dowd says he has beon
living in Custer rounty. Mont. He says
he frequently wrote to his sons, but they
kept il from their mother.
There doesn't appear TO be much to
add to the story from this end OF the
line. Paddy seldom came to town. and
was not very communicative when here.
Some Of his immediate neighbors may
have known OF the old life "in the
states and OF his intention to again
assert himself as the head of the house.
but to the majority the story will doubt
less come as surprise.

Value Of the Hum an Hand

The commercial value of the numau
hand and its parts is assessed as follows
BY the German Mining Accident Insur-
snce companies. Taking the loss of both
hands as totality, the loss of the right
hand diminishes the aptitude of gaining
. livelihood by 20 to 50 per cent; of the
left hand. 60 to 20 per cent; of the
thumb. 20 to 80 per cent. The loss of the
index finger of the right hand reduces
working efficiency IA to IS per cent.
that Of the left hand, to 1875 per cent.
Tie loss of the middle finger Of either
hand reduces efficiency 10 to IS per cent;
that of the little finger Q to 12 per cent.
The third or ring finger is of the least
value. according t. these computations.

Beware OF Fruit skins.

With regard to the eating of fruit
an important caution must be given:
Fruit skins carry germs and are no
more intended for human susie
nance than potato skins, melon
rinds, or pea pods. The bloom of
the peach is luxuriant growth of
microbes, that of the grape only less
so; and when these skins are taken
into the stomach they find most
favorable conditions for their lively
and rapid development, which caus-
es the decay of the fruit before it is
possible to digest it. This is the
reason that many persons think
they cannot eat raw fruit. If they
would in all cases discard the skin
they could derive only good from
the fruit itself. Nature provides the
skin for the protection of the fruit
from the multitude of germs which
are ever ready to attack it, as in evil
dence when the skin is bruised or
broken in any way. The microbes
at once begin their work Of decay,
and the fruit is unfit for food.
Children are chief offenders in re-
spect to this rule, and should he
carefully watched and frequently
cautioned. A daintiness as to the
condition of fruit should also be
cultivated, to prevent its being eat
en- unripe, or too old, on the verge
of decay. Remember that it is
sweet and ripe fruit, in prime con-
dition only, that is recommended
