The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1897-12-02

The doctor came In haste and found his
patient again in great agony from splitting
headache. II was his fifth call on the same
patient, and each time to treat the same
trouble. With suspicion that his diagno-
sis was Incorrect and that he was treating a
symptom and not the disease, he said to her
MADAM, IL is useless for me to visit you
again. You are keeping from me facts aud
symptoms which II il necessary | should
know. The patient finally acknowledged
that, through false modesty, she had not
told him all. Then she told how che had
suffered from female weakness but had kept
1t from him-too modest TO speak. The old
doctor was disgusted at such prudishness,
but when he knew the facts, cured her easily
aud quickly.
The following case differs from the above,
only in the fact that the patient is not afraid
to speak, and to "call a spade aspade."

WAS not free for one single day from the
most fearful headaches and intense tvitch-
ing pains In my neck and shoulders.
You would scarcely believe, to look at
me now, that for about three days every
week for nearly six years, had to stay In
bed. Those headaches would come on me
every week regularly. First I would notice
black spots before my eyes, and then !
would 90 blind, and send for the doctor.
At first they would treat me for indiges-
tion and dyspepsia, then finally acknowl-
sige that something else caused the trouble.

A Dogs Legal Status.

That so august tribunal as the Su-
preme Court of the United States
should be called upon to define the
local status of dog seems singular;
but decision bearing upon that point
has Just been rendered. The case was
q suit brought by citizen of Louisi-
ana to recover damages from rail-
road company for having run over his
dog; and the question was, whether
the state law recognizing dogs as per-
sonal property only when placed on
the assessment rolls was constitu-
tional. The court decided that it was.
Incidentally the court ruled that prop
erty in dogs is of an imperfect and
qualified nature, and that they stand
between wild animals, in which, till
they are subdued, there is no prop
erty, and domestic animals, in which
the right Of property is complies.

Poultry Points.

Dampness causes leg weakness in
ducks.
For large, heavy fowls have the
roosts low.
Dry earth is good material to scat
ter under the roosts.
Early Matched, we'll developed pullets
make good winter layers.
When a thrifty bird is fully matured,
it is easily fattened.
Stale bread soaked in milk Is a good
feed for young poultry.
Cleanliness and good feeding are the
secrets Of success with poultry.
Leghorns and Black Spanish lay eggs
with the whitest shells Of any breed.
On the average it will cost 81 to keep
laying hen one year.
Oilmeal, sunfower seed, hemp seed
ana buckwheat can all be used to good
advantage in feeding fowls intended
for exhibition.
A cross Of the Wyandottes and Lang
shans combines many good qualities
that make fowl valuable for market.

Where Wild Ducks Breed.

The breeding places of the Chesa-
peake ducks are in Canada, where
they are being destroyed in vast num-
bers by the cutting away of the forests
which shelter the lakes and pools
where they harbor, and by the use
and sale of their eggs. Thousands Of
these eggs, says Lippincott's, are an
nually marketed, and by these meth
DDS, rather than by the numbers ac-
tually shot, they have been greatly
diminished.
This condition of things seems to be
beyond remedy, since State cannot
make treaty with foreign power;
and the general government is not
likely to interfere On behalf of what is
practically Maryland industry, or to
provide such compensation as Canada
might see fit to ask if proposal were
made to her to protect the ducks in
their native habitat. So the prospect
is that fifty years will see the exter-
mination of the finest wild fowl in the
world and one of the most priced deli
cacies of the table,
The range of the wild duck reaches
almost from the Arctic to the Antarctic
circle.
It lives through the summer in the
far north, in Greenland, Iceland, lap
land, Siberia, and, as we have shown,
in Canada, until the waters in those
regions become frozen, so that it car
no longer obtain its food. Then be-
gins its fight southwark, sometimes
reaching as far as India and Egypt.
and, in this hemisphere, the Isthmus
of Panama.

A Race of Anne Eaters.


Does any one know of any good rea-
son why we should not be a race Of
apple eaters? By this we refer to the
habit or practice of eating apples raw.
The Bulletin of Pharmacy advances
what we believe to be valuable sug-
gestion along this line of action.
1t says: mo harm can come even to a
delicate system by eating of ripe and
juicy apples just before going to bed
IT also remarks that the apple is rich
is phosphoric acid. What is not so well
known, however, observes the Nebras-
la Farmer, it points out, is that it thor
oughly disinfects the mouth, excites
action of the liver, promotes a sound
and healthful sleep, helps the kidney
secretions and prevents calculus
growths, obviates Indigestion, and is
one Of the best-known preventives OF
diseases of the throat These are ben
efits enough to make US all apple eat

separate the Flocks.

The first thing to do with flocks that
are kept on farms rather than on
ranches is to separate the flock into a
number Of small ones, each composed
of one kind, and having a regard to sex,
age and general condition. The weak
ones should not be placed with the
strong. The wether or stock flock
should be in one flock, the breeding
ewes in another, and the lambs in an
other, il the best results are to be Sc
cured.

Mr.. Marchmont for the opportunity he
had given Them for inspecting his
trust accounts, which were all in due
order.
ssAnd now we have only to arrange
for the formal transference of the
property to Mr.. Williams and his Sis
ter, " remarked the lawyer, as he laid
down the last paper.
ssNo," exclaimed Harold, who, like
Mr.. Marchmont, had noted the cold
ness of his lawyers manner to the
trustee, sno, I've something else TO
do first
Both the other men looked at the
speaker in some surprise.
Il have to ask your forgiveness,
sir, said the youth ingenuously, adj
vancimg toward Mr.. Marchmont, and
holding out his hand; ST am utterly
ashamed to confess that, for some
while, have wronged you, my fathers
oldest friend, and the kind and faithful
guardian Of my own and my sisters
interests, by wicked and unjust
suspicious. Circumstances not
worth recalling now-had led me to
fancy that-well, I'm fairly ashamed
to say the words-that our money was
not quite safe in your keeping. ] see
now how mistaken-how wrong I
was here Mr.. Vivian mentally ejacu-
lated: s9Was he?"-ssand I ask your
pardon for the wrong did you in my
thoughts. I feel it only due to you,
sir, to make this confession, ashamed
as am to have to do it; but you will
forgive me, will you not?"
There was pause. Mr.. Marchmont
did not take the offered hand, but sat
still, with strange, fixed look upon
his face.
ST was so anxious about Ellie, my
little sister," went on the young man;
we are all alone in the world, as you
know. But if I cruelty misjudged
you, sir, I am at least ready to ac-
knowledge myself utterly in the wrong
and to ask your forgiveness. Were
my dear father here, added the young
man, with some emotion, 4 am sure
he would fully appreciate your kind
ness to his orphan children and thank
you as sincerely as I do for your noble
and conscientious fulfilment of the
trust he reposed in you
Mr.. Marchmont slowly staggered to
his feet; an awful grayness was over
spreading his face.
1T is-very touching graft
flying" he began, in strangely al
tered voice.
Then he suddenly collapsed, and fell
on the foor-dead.
ssThe fellow had some conscience
after all, /" thought Mr.. Vivian to him
self, whenever he looked back on the
awful occurrence; but, lawyer-like,
kept his own counsel.
Failure of the hearts action" was
the medical verdict, with the adden-
dunn that Mr.. Marchmont had long
been in critical state of health.
Harold Williams often reproached
himself for having, by little addi-
tional excitement, possibly accelerated
the fatal catastrophe; but yet, as the
young man once remarked to Mr..
Vivian:
ct cannot understand how my merely
thanking poor Mr.. Marchmont should
have affected him so much. It was not
as if anything had been wrong with
his accounts.
Mr.. Vivian only coughed in reply;
and, to the end of their lives, Harold
and his sister believed their trustee to
have been a model of honesty and
rectitude. Yet, perhaps, as the law
yer had surmised, it was Marchmont's
conscience that had killed him after
all.-Household Words.
