Counterfeit Ivory.

Large quantities of articles made of
ivory having been put upon the market
at extremely reasonable prices led to
an investigation as to their source. The
supply of ivory is so limited that the
prices can scarcely be varied; therefore
there was evidence that something un-
commercial was being done. 1t was
found that the fruit of a variety of palm
was being utilized. This fruit has a
very hard and white kernel. 1t can be
worked in lathe and is of such fine
quality that experts may be puzzled to
distinguish it from the genuine article.
1t is susceptible to almost all uses to
which genuine ivory is put. To detect
the difference, apply small quantity
of concentrated sulphuric acid. This
causes the imitation article to assume a
shade of pink, while on genuine ivory
it produces no change whatever.-New
York Ledger.

4 COMEDY OF ERRORS.

A young lady presented her fiance
with beautifully worked pair of slip
pers. He acknowledged the gift by
sending her his picture in a beautiful
frame, writing a note to send with it.
At the same time he replied angriIy
to an oft repeated dun for an unpaid
for suit of clothes. He engaged boy
to deliver the package and notes. The
young lady received a note in her
adored ones handwriting, and flew to
her room to devour its contents. She
opened the missive with eager fingers
and read:
II am getting tired of your ever
lasting attentions. The suit is about
worn out already. 1t never amounted
to mudh anyway. Please go to thun-
der!'
And the tailor was struck utterly
dumb when he opened a parcel and
discovered portrait of his delinquent
customer, with an note that said:
"When you gaze upon my features,
think of how much owe you'll"
When the unfortunate young man
called that evening to receive the
happy acknowledgment of his sweet
heart, he was shown off the doorstep
by the young lady's father.

his warehouse fronts dusty street
Within the city's crowded heart,
Alas, the price of every beat,
Here, foremost in exchange and mart.
He sits alone, a silent man,
Unloved; all fear his vigil keen;
his thought, the ledger's page to scan,
And spy near desk and door unseen.
And yet Whenever the breath of spring
Steals shyly in upon the breeze
His voice takes on a kindlier ring,
His crusty mien a touch of ease
The flower girl ventures through the place,
Though he refuses to buy her wares;
The boys perceive an hour of grace
And softly whistle on the stairs.
For half unwittingly he dreams;
fancy, born mid orchards bloom,
Floats back upon the sunlight CLEANS
And haurts the dingy, cobwebbed room.
1t clings; he fain would drive away
The pleading wrath of boyish years.

Libby prison or Andersonville.
Upon his return Bigelow was pro-
NOTED to be lieutenant colonel, and in
February, 1777. he was made colonel of
the Fifteenth Massachusetts regiment
of the continental line. This regiment
was composed of Worcester county
men, the towns of Worcester, Leicester,
Spencer, Paxton and Holden contribut-
ing their respective quotas. Like his
company of minute men, Bigelow' s
regiment became famous for it's disci-
pline and efficiency, and it was soon
sent to join Gates, who was disputing
the passage of Burgoyne's army from
Canada to Albany, where a junction
was to be formed with Clinton, who
was to come up from New York, and
thus cut off New England and isolate
this section of the country.
Bigelow and his regiment participated
in both battles of Saratoga, and won
regulars and Baron RiedesePs Hes
SLAMS lay down their arms and take up
the march as prisoners of war for Rut-
land, Mass, where so many of the lat

old garrison house and stockade.
Meanwhile, Washington was harrass-
ing the British in Pennsylvania with
that skill, persistency and courage
which have given him name among
military commanders, and thither Big
Glow and his Worcester men were
hurried, with Morgan and his famous
rif1emen, the very flower of Gates
army. Upon his arrival at White
marsh, Bigelow was personally greeted
by Washington and introduced to other
officers, with complimentary references
to the appearance of the Worcester
company at Cambridge and of the vail
