Raw Beef f1r Oopsunptives.

For a period Of more than dozen
years Joshua Hepford, a dry goods
clerk residing on Spruce street, has
eaten raw meat, at least pound and
half of it each day, for the sake of
his health. BY this strange dieting
he las developed from consumptive
young fellow into as robust man as
is to be found behind the counters of
the big store in which he works. He
apparently had not long to live when
an experimenting doctor gave him the
meat prescription. At first, as can
we'll be imagined, it was distasteful to
him, and it was especially so in his
case because he had always been
fastidious about his meals. He would
have steaks cut up into fine hash and
bolt it without looking. The treat
ment soon made its effect apparent,
and as Heptord improved in bodily
condition and spirits under the treat
ment, he gained an appetite for
chunks of uncooked flesh. In less
than year from the beginning it was
a positive pleasure for him to devour
it. He has on occasion eaten as
much as FIVE pounds in a day. Fat,
however, he does not care about.
Ordinarily he confines himself to eat
ing beef, mutton aid chicken, but in
the height of winter he INDUCES in =
little pork.-PailadeLphia Record.

KAISER OONFBssES.

Charles o. Kaiser, convicted OF the
murder of his wife Emma Kaiser, near
Norrstown last September, has made
confession, in which he admitted
having conspired with James A.
Clemmer to commit the crime, but
places all the blame for having fired
the fatal shot on Clemmer, who is
now in the county Jail, at that place,
awaiting trial for his alleged share in
the crime.
Lizzie DeKalb, the "woman in
black" who is also under arrest
charged with being implicated In the
murder, is, according to Kaiser's con-
fession, innocent of any knowledge OF
their purpose to kill Mrs. Kaiser.
Kaiser in his confession says that
he never had any intention of doing
away with his wife until after he had
heard that she was untrue to him.
Previous to that time he says he had
always loved her. AS soon as he was
told that she was untrue to him, he
lost all love for her, and when after
ward he met Clemmer in Philadelphia,
he it was who tempted him to enter
into a scheme to get rid of Mrs.
Kaiser.

LEARN MORE TRADES.

1t may sound just little startling,
but it is said to be true that more
young men are learning trades in
penitentiaries than outside of them,
because the parents are trying to make
clerks, doctors, lawyers, and even
preachers out of material intended
for blacksmiths, carpenters and other
trades for mechanics. The trouble is
that boys are too eager to avoid the
labor of life, and too anxious to follow
some calling that does not soil their
hands. No one but the parent is
responsible for this. Boys should be
taught that there is more dignity in
manual labor than in loa6ng, and
more honor in toll than in independ-
ence. The farm and the shop often
yield more profit than the Office or
counter.

which we wish to make this week
IS that reliable goods such as we
