Marrow With Cheese,

Beef marrow is appreciated by
few cooks save the English, and still
it may be put to various uses in
making palatable dishes. Cut into
slices, boil in salted water, drain and
dip in grated cheese and bread
crumbs, place on a tin plate and put
in the oven until the cheese is melt
cd. Serve on slices of toast or on
heated plates with slices of lemon

Pocket Book 7 AIKEN.

On Friday evening of last week as
Mr.. Isaac Kocher of this place wa
in the post Office to mail several let
ters, his pocket book containing
about $50 in cash, several checks,
orders and notes, was taken. He
had laid it down at the writing desk
and had gone to the general delivery
window for stamps, aud when he re-
turned to the stand the pocket book
was gone. There were n number OF
persons i'll the Office at the time, and
although he has pretty fair suspicion
as to where it went, as yet he has no
satisfactory information on which to
proceed. The thief should at least
return the wallet with the papers, as
they are worthless to him, aud are
valuable to Mr.. Kochcr. .SHyRer

HOxie's DEFEAT.

Hoxie had never in his life been
on the witness stand, but he made
1t his boast that IL he ever chanced
to be thus situated he'd just like tc
see the lawyer who could rattle him
In his testimony. He fancied, did
Hoxie, that he would prove more
than match for the lawyer who
ohanced to tackle him. The other
day Hoxie had chance to utterly
rout and defeat one of these Little
sbyster lawyers, as he called them,
for Hoxie was called to testify.

and run out of the state of Ohio six
years ago next month? Now think
before you answer. 30 careful, be

No, sir; I'm not"
Didn't you, William Henry
Hoxie-didn't you elope from In.

"I-I-tell-you"-
BE careful, be careful now. Re.
member that you're under oath and

word you say. Have care!'

Didn't, eh? And you never
served sentence in tho Iowa peni.

fellow, to face the jury and toll

on your reply and have u care, have

tossed bigamist of any value in this
or i'll any other court? | ask the
court if this mans testimony is

No, it is not. And as ho is tho chief
