A Power That Cannot Be Stolen

According to the Electric Review, it
has been decided by court in Ger
many that electricity cannot be
stolen. An electric light company
discovered that man had tapped the
wires and was using electricity as
power. Several thousand amperes of
current had been consumed when the
discovery was made. The question
arose in court whether an invisible,
intangible material could be carried
off. With curious disregard for the
very evident facts in the case, the
court ruled that only movable, ma
terial object could be stolen. They de-
ciGed that electricity did not come
under that head, and the appropriation
of the electric current was allowed to
90 free.

ERApIcAT1NG scAB IN SHEEP.

Hot baths made by putting sulphur
in water are specific for scab in
sheep. 1t is very infectious, and any
sheep having it should be kept by it.
self. The bath will need to be re-
peated at intervals of one or two days,
for at least three times, in order to
destroy germs that were not advanced
enough for the first application to kill.
The Australian sheep growers have
succeeded IN eradicating scab from
that country. Now every sheep
brought to Australia has to submit to
the bath once to destroy possible
germs that have not become visible.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
EASY WAY TO CLEAN FURs.

A woman who knows says that
cleaning iurs is easy enough. Put a
quart or two of rye flour into an iron
pot and set it over the fire, stirring
and heating till very hot. Spread out
the furs and sprinkle the -four hot and
thick over them, rubbing it we'll in.
After. kneading for some moments,
shake the flour off and brush and beat
the furs we'll. The natural luster will
return and make the furs look almost
like new.

RAW BEEF FOR THE SICK.

One of the most satisfactory ways
of giving an invalid raw beef is in
sandwich. Butter lightly on the loaf
bread twenty-four hours old and slice
it very thin. Scrape choice, tender
piece of beef, season 1t with salt and
also pepper, if the latter can be taken !;
spread it upon the buttered bread, put
another piece of bread over it, and
then cut the sandwich into finger
pieces, being sure to remove all the
crust. Serve them upon a prettily
embroidered dolly or fringed napkin
as soon as they are made.

From tie Standard, Syracuse, ~ Y.
Miss Rosamond Ash. who resides with her

MASL1Us STREET, SYRACUSE. N. Y.
August 16, 1896.
"For the past ten years I have been a
fearful sufferer from the most painful type
of inf1ammatory rheumatism. which would
make its appearance on the least possible
provocation. Winter was when l suffered
the worst, and it generally attacked me from
my hips down, and I had to 60 to bed.
While these attacks lasted, If anyone touched
the bed even, I would scream with pain, as
the least contact was nnbearable, for every
joint and every muscle gaTe me eXcruciatlng
agony.
"WhiIe was in tn 8 terrible condition, my
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Campbell, came to visit
me, and told me he knew OF case very
similar to mine that had been entirely cured
by the use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and advised me to try them, as
the physicians were not doing me any good.
On this my father bought me two boxes,
WHICH look accOrQlnS 10 ulrectlOus, anu 1
began to recover, getting stronger every day.
I kept on with DR.. Williams remedy until
I had taken two dozen boxes. and by that
time every trace OF rheumatism was gone,
and am now as we'll as ever I was.
"If you have any doubts as to my state
ment, I refer you for its confirmation to
Rev. Mr.. Campbell OF Hastings, and Mr..
Server, OF Hastings the latter b ing Super
intendent OF the Methodist Sunday School,
who know all Of the facts surrounding my
extraordinary recovery. Pink Pills saved
my life and gave me health and strength,
and we will never be without them In our
house.
