A cat has grown up in the Camden
county Jail in an eccentric sort of way. 1t
has been the especial pet of all the pris-
oners and is ON calling terms with the
elite of murderers' row. 1t has Jared well
at the hands of its admirers, who spare
some scraps from their scant rations, but
1t steadily refused TO grow sleek and fat
as all well regulated and well fed cats
should do, but, ON the contrary, has reach
ed a slabsided maturity that was for a
time a mystery to the jail officials. No one
could account for Its knife blade shape
Finally 1t was noticed that it just snugly
fitted In between the bars as 1t passed in
and out Of the cells. Then 1t was found
that this constant movement had Kept Its
lateral growth down, while 1t developed
properly In all other directions.

An American traveller who has been ex.
ploring the interior of Japan came upon b
small village where a singular custom pre-
walls. Whenever robbery is committed
and the thief is undiscovered, the ruler oi
the hamlet summons the entire male pop
ulation and requests them to write on .
slip of paper the name of the person they
suspect of the crime.
The one receiving the largest number OF
ballots in declared duly "elected" and aft
erward promptly punished. This system
may have certain advantages not very cleal
to the western mind, but it must open tn,
door to numberless abuses and unfortu
nate possibilities. -Pittsburg Dispatch.

Office in New York City is at
No. 80 Tribune Building. lie is
strong, virile man, not
the sort of person to often
require medicines; and is
specially opposed to pills of any
sort, finding them too violent
in their action. In case of any
irregularity he had always
relied upon the use OF fruits,
until one day on railway
journey friend directed his
attention to Ripan's Tabules and
gave him some from box he
had in his portmanteau, He
made use of them when occasion
offered, and the result in his
case was all that could be
desired. He now depends upon
Ripan's Tabules entirely in the
case of any irregularity of the
bowels or arrangement of the
digestive apparatus. Mr.. Eiker
is picture of health and
manly vigor, is hearty eater,
and he regards Tabule after
hearty meal as sort of insur-
ance policy against future ills
of any sort.

The Missing Birds.

. The bluebirds, yellow birds and black.
birds seem to have disappeared from
western New York this year. Reports
from careful ornithologists in many
counties show that these birds have not
appeared this spring as usual. Walter
Burke of Batavia writes: Where are
the blackbirds? These birds in past
years congregated in large numbers in a
little grove near my residence and filled
the air with their melodious singing.
but now it is all hushed and still
The Livingston Republican says.
''The absence of bluebirds has been
commented ON by several papers, and,
come to think of it, we haven't noticed
any bluebirds or yellow birds either.
but the orioles are flashing through the
foliage in considerable numbers and oc.
casionally trilling a few bars Of song. Z"
