In 1882 German shoemaker named
y eimann died near Montrose, Penn.
He has a brother in Carbonate, 70
whom he bequeathed an old box about
the size of the vessels IN which WON
en- plant geraniums.
The brother who became heir TO the
pot knew not what 10 do with the leg
acy. but he kept it in a trunk until a
few years ago, when he married. IL
was subsequently taken from the
trunk and given 70 his little girl as
plaything. The little girl scattered
the contents of the box, pegs, ants,
etc, 20 the four winds.
About year ago her father died,
aud the loving wife utilized the box
as one IN which 10 plant some geran-
iums. and placed II on the grave Of
her dead husband. When the plants
grew the box was taken back 10 the
city and did service again as q play
thing.
One day the bottom fell out of the
box, and IL was then found that the
heirloom hal two bottoms. A roll Of
bank bills fell out of the false bottom,
and with the roll some silver-S3. The
fact was reported 10 the little girls
mother, and on counting the amount
she found il was S155. The man who
left the legacy died before he could
explain the reason for the gift of the
box.-New York Press.

notice of a young man who was muir
dered in Scotland about the year 1890.
Vengeance Is mine j will repay

ton that has always accompanied the
notice. The alleged murderer was
tried and acquitted OF the crime. more
from the lack of positive evidence than
from any belief in his innocence on
the part Of the jury. The notice may
or may not appear when the anniver-
