A Eire-EIv Festival.

[Sen Katayama in Harpers Magazine.l
 But there is one season in summer when the hyakusho comes into closer touch with nature in her robes of night. It is when the hotaru, the fire-lies, come. Then as evening falls you can see their flashing lanterns along the brooks and the moist lowlands; and you can watch the children in their delight catching those tiny fragments of an unknown star as they rest upon the rushes, and then imprisoning them in little cages of gauzy transparent silk In a little earth at the bottom of the cage they planted millet seed and 1t has grown to a sprout of an inch or so, and here is tiny basin of water beside it. In such a cage the fire-fly will be the children's delight for several days.
 Of an evening some one will make up a party of the villagers and go to a. beautiful river or lake on a hotaru-gari Ca fire-f1y excursion). They will take a lunch and spend the evening there, see ing nature at her best, and bringing back store of joy. Their lunch they take to the azumaya, a little open rus tic house with a floor of bamboo, with a railing around it,and with quaint matched roof supported on four posts; and it always overlooks some pretty water scene. There they spread their dainties-sake Gice wine), takenoko (bamboo shoots cooked with rich sauce) rice cakes, pickles of many sorts, sWeetmeats, and a host of good things that taste can suggest and skill produce When they have finished their feasting they stroll in groups to the railing and watch the flashing of the fire-flies and their multiplied reflec- tions on the water below. The most bashful girl may converse without fear of exposing her blush; for the tire-fy gives only light enough to enable one

Almost an Accident.

Speaking of narrow escapes" ob- served MT. Chugwater reaching for his second cup of coffee, did tell you I was on train the other day that came within three feet of being run into by another train going at full speed?"
 For mercy's sake, no" exclaimed Mrs. Chugwater. "How did it hap pen?"
 "The train that came so near rum ming into ours" he rejoined, buttering a biscuit, was on the other track, and going the other way"
 It was several minutes before Mrs. Chugwater broke loose, but when she did she made up for lost time.-Chicago Tribune.

No Such Foot in Stock.

A lady, well dressed, and apparently intelligent entered a plaster casters shop on Province Court the other day and inquired earnestly:
 You make casts, don't you? Have you cast of Trilby's foot?"
 The good-looking young man in at- tendance blushed and stammered out that he had an impression that Trilby was a myth.
 Well" said the would-be customer, 'T was told that you would have it, if anybody; but if you haven't it must look elsewhere" And she glared at the presumptuous young man and flounced ont

. DIPHTHERIA o M

Too many homes bear this fear-inspir- ing placard, denoting the prevalence of that most insidious and dreaded of all diseases - Diphtheria
 It is to-day a recognized fact among the best practitioners that nine out of ten cases formerly, considered hopeless may be brought to happy termination by the use of that great original raw food product,
 Bovinine.
 This great blood-generating, life-main- taining, strength-developing, and flesh producing product of lean, raw meat, contains the greatest amount of life preserving qualities in the least pos sible bulk of any preparation known.
 In cases of Diphtheria, Bovinine has special advantages. In this disease, as in others, the rapidity with which it is assimilated gives to it a preference over all other foods, passing, as it does. into jhe system immediately, without causing she digestive organs to perform any labor. And considering the fact that the lesions Tn the throat prevent the swallowing of solid food, it becomes an absolute neces- slCy. ln the worst cases, where even liquids cannot be taken by the mouth, Bovinine
 Saves Life by being used as an injection. Above all Bovinine is in itself germcide. and in all such diseases as Diphtheria, caused by microbes, it not only performs it's greatest mission of maintaining life, but antidotes the existing bacilli.
 Bovinine has done wonders in thousands of cases of Diphtheria. When your doctor uses it you may cease to worry, and be assured of speedy recovery. To neglect it's use may mean years of remorse in the feeling that some loved one might still be with you if everything possible had been done. Bovinine is sold by all Druggists

TUESDAY EVENING. NOV. 10, 1885

a REMARKABLE CRIMINAL TRIAL
A remarkable criminal trial has been
in progress in Carroll county for nearly
six years. A white man named Tilley
was charged with having murdered a
woman and having burned her body
under bush pile The evidence was
purely circumstanlial, but strong, and
Tilley was condemned to be hanged.
An appeal was taken and the Court OF
Appeals set the verdict aside. Again
he was tried and again condemned
to be hanged, to be once more saved by
the Court OF Appeals. The Legislature
of Virginia passed law last winter
removing such cases from the jurisdic-
ton of the Circuit Court. By CON-
promise at the term of the Circuit
Court which has just adjourned in
Carroll county, between the common
wealth's attorney and Tilley's counsel,
Gen. Walker. is was agreed that Tilley
could be discharged by the Circuit
Court, rearrested and indicted in the
County Court; that he should be
tried for manslaughter and condemned
to two and a half years in the peniten-
tiary. During the five years he has
been under sentence Tilley has been
confined in Jail, much OF the time in an
iron cage and changed to the floor.

Group is terror to young mothers
and to post them concerning the cause,
first symptoms and treatment is the
object of this item. The origin of Group
is common cold. Children who are
subject to it take cold very easily and
Group is almost sure TO follow. The
first symptom is hoarseness: this is soon
followed by peculiar rough cough,
which is easily recognized and will
never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham.
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will soon disap-
pear. Even after the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the
attack, There is no danger in giving
this remedy for it contains nothing
injurious. For sale by L. Stabler & Co.
