A few weeks ago, while Peter
Mosser, farmer residing between
Siegersville and Schnecksville, Lehigh
county, was engaged in moving grass
with a machine, he cut off both legs
of partridge, which was sitting on a
nest. The latter contained twenty
eggs. Mr.. Mosser took the eggs and
submitted them to the tender care Of
a motherly hen, which took them under
her wing and few days ago hatched
out nineteen partridges. The hen
was considerably surprised at first and
cackled at great rate, says the Allen
town ChroaicIe- NeaoS, but her mater
nal instinct came to the rescue and
she is all care and devotion. The

Barre's leading practitioners, had dis
covered new method for the cure of
rupture, wherein the patient is not
subjected to surgical operation, is
not detained from business and is
completely cured in from four to eight
weekly visits to the Doctors Office at
80 S. Washington street, those large
and handsome rooms are crowded
daily. The Doctors reputation and
standing are such that the people
have confidence in him, and the fact
that he has absolutely cured almost
every case that has come 10 him is
overcoming the incredibly of the
public in the statement that rupture
can be cured without the use of the
knife and long confinement. DR.. o
Malley's cures are absolute. 1t il
