Gun=ShOt Wounds.

Major E. A. Darlington was shot
through the am at the battle of
Wounded Knee" December 20,
1890, the last fight between the
Indians and our troops. 1t is not
often that regular army officer
certifes to the value of a proprietary
remedy, but this is what Major
Darlington says about SALvA-CEA:
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
April 2I, 1895.
II have used SALvA-cEA for
soreness or rheumatic pains in the
muscles of my arm, which is dis
abled from gun-shot wound involv-
ing the elbow joint relief was quick
and complete.

Not many people suffer
from gun-shot wounds, to be
sure, but lots of us do suffer
from piles, local skin irrita-
ton, chafngs, colds and nasal
catarrh, and SALvA-cEA is
just as efficacious in all of
these as in gun-shot wounds.

SHE WAS JUSTIFIED.
She Had Left Her Husband, but There
Was an Excellent Reason.

Was an Excellent Reason.
All eyes rested upon the attorney for the
defendant as he rose to make his opening
statement.
Your honor" he began, II realize that
tho charge is serious one This woman
has left the man she swore to love, honor
and obey and refuses to return to him.
Yet hope to make it clear to your honor
that she is justified in all that she has
done, and that she, rather than he, has
just cause of action"
The judge scowled and inyoluntariy
shook his head.
Il understand your honor's feeling"
said the lawyer quickly, land my views
would be the same if were not acquainted
with all the circumstances of this case. If
this man had merely thrown doormat at
his wife, would be the last to claim that
she was justified in leaving him. If he
had knocked her down stairs, would say
that is part of the lottery of love and lot it
60 at that. If he had played battledoor
and shuttleoock with the children, would
say that, so far as the wife was concerned,
he was acting clearly within his rights,
and that it was her duty to bear with him.
If he had wild and ungovernable temper
and locked her out of the house, l should
hold that it was her duty to crawl in the
cellar window and try to pacify him. If
he refused to provide for her, I should hold
that it was her duty as good and true
wife to live on nothing and hope for better
times"
The Judge began to show some signs of
astonishment.
But, your honor" continued the law
yer, "there are occasions when it is absurd
to expect any human being to live with a
man. There are times when it would be
impossible for the most angelic creature
that ever lived to exist in the same house
with a man, and expect to show that
such was the case in this instance
The judge motioned the attorney to stop
and turned to the plaintiff.
"The attorney for the Defense" he said,
eliminates that you have been trying to
swear off smoking. Is it true?"
1t is, your honor"
cease dismissed" said tho judge sharp
ly. "She was justified. "-Chicago Post.

of saving their entire winter stock.
We think if the teachers, of Greene
would have a good local institute
where they might exchange views
and receive some instruction in re
gard to ways and methods of teach
ing, and how to teach a successful
school, it would be of far more bene-
fit to both teachers and pupils than a
wishy- washy method of exchang-
ing visits for the sole purpose of
visiting and receiving a mess Of
candy, and other stuff to tickle the
palate, which only serves to spoil
the minds of the pupils for a whole
fortnight.
Incentives to study should be of a
different nature. The power and

not lie in this superficial method OF
pleasing parents and children. What

That Wonderful Msrrr.eo.Round.

LAYTON, n. j., March 23rd 1896.
MIR EDTToR;-I have heard so many ask
what that merry -go-round down at Centre
vile is like that the spirit sort o'moves me
to relieve their curiosity through that
greatest of educators the PRESS. One of
our prominent citizens answered the
query by saying, Oh it only grand
drunk, but that is such an awfully crude
explanation that l have hardly recovered
from the shock yet 1t is enough to throw
one into spasms to think of such a thing.
l will try and do a little better than that,
kind o'throw glamour of sentiment and
poetry around the subject as it were. Most
merry-go-rounds go with wheezy old en-
gine, or turned by crank, but this one
runs by Jersey lightning so you can truly
call it an electrical machine. Having no
dynams near to furnish the motive power
this merry -go-round has to have the light
ming fed to it from storage batteries Keep
it in bottles you know, and give it a dose
whenever the motion slacks. Score one
for Centreville for adopting a new force to
an old, old movement This machine has
quite a number Of parts, but when it gets
in full motion it appears TO be nothing but
legs and arms with stove in the centre
and although it is nearly new it makes a
clatter to raise the dead. The timber of
which it is composed is not all grown at
Centreville; the best probably comes from
the limestone ridges west of the village,
though occasionally little choice timber
is imported from Port Jervis. This merry
go-round sometimes gets so highly charged
that it is liable to draw in any one stand
ing by, then it becomes rather erratic, and
is liable to border on a riot. Only the
other night gentleman standing near
was drawn into the machine and could not
get out until his coat was made ready for
rag carpet, only excepting the machine did
not wind them into balls. 1t is said it
painted them red though. / did not see
this however and cannot vouch for its cor
rectness. Everything else was painted red
so possibly 1t was not fish story.
| If 1t is essential to your understanding
of this narration to know 1t is absolutely
correct, will on hearing from you to that
effect get the manager of the merry-go-
round to send you an affidavit and then
you will probably know less about 1t than
you do now. This machine separates au-
tomaticaly when the seance is over, excep-
ting the bar-room stove, which is the pivot
around which the merry -go-round revolves.
After separating the various parts become
wonderful to tell farmers, editors, butch
ers, poets, ETC., and wander around the
world acting their several parts, until the
time comes for the club to meet, when
more wonderful to tell the component parts
again come together by mutual attraction,
and the machine after few doses gets in
to regular motion. saw q statement
sometime ago that the editor thought II
there were few more doors it wonld save
the machine the trouble of poking its heads
through the windows SO often. fear this
is not the exact language of the editor, but
when the butcher gets some ice under his
hat he will be able to tell you all that
may have forgotten sss
