Putting live snake in his wife's
bed was one of the charges on which
r. 8. Cunningham, Slippery Rock
farmer. was recently arrested and en-
tered bail at New Castle. Pa. On an
other occasion she says he put live
toad in the bed, and later on some salty
stuff in her coffee. She Is afraid he will
kill her.
Cunningham about year ago adver-
tised in Pittsburg newspaper for q
housekeeper. The advertisement stated
that she was wanted more as compan-
ion than anything else. A pretty widow
Of Pittsburg answered the advertise
ment and came to live at the Cunning
ham home. Mrs. Cunningham did not
like this arrangement, and ON account
Of the attention bestowed upon the Wild
ow by her husband family trouble fol-
lowed. Cunningham wanted his wife
to leave, 1t is said. but she refused. FL
nally matters resulted in the pretty
widow going back to Pittsburg. Gun.
ningham subsequently sued for divorce
ON the ground Of cruel and barbarous
treatment, but couldn't prove his
charge and the case was dismissed.

purpose. Twas then q boy in Lancaster,
Pa, and was learning the printers

Union. John w. Forney, who made
such success of the Philadelphia Press,

turns working the old Franklin press.

The habit of companies. which insure
against accidents to compel their pa

in case Of injury was the occasion OF
this singular thoughtfulness, told by the

The Old SandbOx.

"Blotting paper" said a man Of ma
ture years, "has been commonly used
for only about 40 years. Before that we
used sand, which was poured from a
sand box out upon the paper. Enough
of it adhered to the wet Ink to keep it
from blotting. The rest was poured
back into the box. think liked the
old sand box better than do the mod
ern blotting paper. Sometimes when
you opened a letter you would find sand
in the envelope, which had rubbed off
the letter in transit But that didn't do
any hurt, and the letter itself was more
slightly to look at than the letter Of to-
day. 1t did not shade off pale, where
fresh ink had been taken from the lines
bodily by tho blotter-it was uniform
in color. And the lines, fine and coarse,
were just as the writer made them-not
blended or blurred or softened or spread
out, more nearly uniform. They were
clear and precise and characteristic Of
the writer.
