COMMITTED SUICIDE.

]. T. Spence, of Lacrosse,
called Monday and informed us
that Thomas Prewitt, near Union,
committed suicide Saturday
morning, by hanging himself.
He rose early and told his wife
that he would 60 and feed the
stock while she got breakfast;
that he had promised his neigh
Dor, Mr.. Pitts, to help him plant
corn that day. When breakfast
was ready and Prewitt not ap-
pearing, his wife went to look for
him, when she found him dead
hanging to a joist between two
stables, with his toes touching
the ground. AS nothing was fed.
he no doubt hung himself as soon
as he went to the barn. Nc
cause is assigned for the rash
act. lizard Co lnty Register.

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.

A dispatch to the Arkansas
Democrat from Springfield, Ark,
says: "This place has had an
other mysterious hanging. Last
Thursday the daughter of Jess
Howard, a colored farmer living
three miles northwest of this
place, left the house as usual in
the afternoon to 60 to the field,
where she was stumbling sprouts
in their crop. No one happened
to be at work in the same part of
the field, and when night came
and she failed to come in from
her work, q search was instigated
but not until the next morning
was she discovered. When found
she was found swinging from q
maple limb, dead and cold. The
limb to which she was tied was
only about 9! seven feet high and
left her feet full on the ground,
one knee even resting upon the
earth Her apron had been torn
into strips and made to serve for
a hangman's rope. The qoron-
er's jury DECIDED that she had
first been murdered and then
hung that it might assume a
suicidal look" "

TOO MUCH MUSIC.

The other day thief broke in
to a mansion in st. Louis early
in the morning, and hid behind a
screen. From 7 to s o'clock the
eldest daughter took a piano
lesson. From s to 8 the second
daughter took a singing lesson.
From 8 to 10 tho eldest son had a
violin lesson. From 10 to II the
other son took a lesson on the
flute. AT II o'clock all the
brothers and sisters assembled
and studied an ear-splitting piece
Tor piano, violin, flute and voice.
AT half past eleven the thief
staggered from behind the screen
and, falling at their feet, cried
out; For heavens sake have
me took to the cooler, but cheese

Another funny lawsuit has

Another funny lawsuit has
been tried in Oklahoma, this
time at Enid. Ebert Butler
worked for s. H. Davis on the
latter's farm. Butler sued Davis
for $40, alleged to be due as
wages. Against this Davis set
up several items, one for SIG for
chemical analysis of water mel
ons. This is explained by the
fact that Davis found seven of
his melons plugged. He figured
that Butler had loaded them with
poison for him. He sent two of
the melons to a chemist, who
analysed them but did not find
any poison, and charged SIS.
Davis insisted that Butler ought
to pay for the analysis, but the
jury found no verdict against
him.-Ex.

PRINT SHOP MANNERS.

IT frequently happens that Wis
itors to a newspaper office do and
say things which are improper
and rude The visitor does not
mean to be rude, and really has
not the idea that he is making
himself disagreeable, for the rea-
son that he is not accustomed to
newspaper etiquette. For this
reason we wish to throw out a
few hints that will enable a visit
or to avoid unintentionally CIV
ing offence.
When you enter a printing Of
flee do not handle the type in the
cases. If you wish to examine
the type, say go to the printer,
and he will be glad to stop his
work and empty the type on the
EDITORS table, where you can sit
and examine the type at your
leisure. Never mind putting
back the type; the printer can do
that after you get through.
Don't read the proof sheets,
clippings or manuscript. If you
want to know what is going to
be in the next paper ask the edi.
tor to read aloud to you. He has
plenty of time and will be CRATE
full to you for the chance to quit
work and entertain you.
II you want to look over the
cash book make the editor 60 and
get it for you.
Never ask for a sample copy
but take half q dozen.
Never spit tobacco juice on the
floor; always spit on the exchange
es or on the walls, otherwise the
editor will think you are not ac-
customed to a newspaper Office.
Make the editor feel that his
presence does not annoy you.
Never ask for any old exchang-
es. Just help yourself to the I'M
opened ones, for they always
contain much later news than
those that have been opened.
Ask the editor, if you are a
perfect stranger to him, to sup
ply you with duplicate key to
his postoffice box, 80 that you
can get his papers regularly. II
he is a gentleman he will furnish
you with a duplicate key without
your asking, but some elitors
are not gentlemen, you know. So
Exchange, !

BOB TAfLOR'S coy.

The happiest thingI ever saw
was barefooted and dirty. He
carried mud between his toes and
freckles on his nose, and his
heart full OF dreams and his head
full OF schemes and his pockets
full Of strings and sings and
things. His billy goat and his
dogs were his daily companions,
and he roamed over the hills and
yelled because he had a yeller,
and whooped because he had a
whooper. AT homo he was the
autocrat at the breakfast table
and the dinner table and the sup
per table, at school he was the
democrat of the playground and
the republican of the lunch bas-
ket-he wanted everything in
sight. He abhorred the bath tub
and the Bible, and was the sworn
enemy of castor oil and civiliza-
ton. He was everlastingly I'M
der Indictment for high crimes
and misdemeanors, and was al
ways attempting to prove an
alibi. His father tried him, con-
victel him for lodging the Truth
one day, and turne1 to him with
a frown and said: "My son,
don't you 60 to Sunday SCHOOL,"

the Bible there?'' eyes SIR"
,"Well, can you tell me what it
says about a lie?' The boy
scratched his head and looked
guilty, but finally recovered his
equilibrium and replied, with a
twinkle in his eye: "It says that
a lie is an abomination in the
sight of the Lord, and a very
present help in time of trouble"

A H
and Powerful Piece Of
Mechanism ON Earth,

The human body is the most econom.
zeal machine in the world. 1t takes in
about 8 1-S pounds of food a day in the
shape of water, oxygen and solids.
This food gives man his power OF
doing work. 1t gives the strength for
bodily, muscular and mental work.
The heart does 100 foot tons of work
in "a hours. If the full work of the
heart for that period could be gathered
into one big lift it would raise 1870 tons
weight one foot high. The muscles OF
breathing do p foot tons work per
day.
The work of the whole body in all
its actions for "a hours amounts to
about 3,4OO foot tons.
This enormous working power is
developed from food in "a hours. Over
5000 foot ions go to produce heat,
which is a mode Of motion and is nee
essary for every vital process. The
remainder represents a mans actual
muscular and mental work.
1t must be remembered that 5000
foot tons about represent the force
which would raise a man of average
weight eight and one-half miles high.
Man has never succeeded in making
any engine that could compare with
the engineers own body in develop.
ing a relatively large amount Of en-
ergy IN a very small consumption Of
fuel or food.-N. Y, World.

Noted English Physician Discusses
the Value of Ordinary Vege-
tables as Medicine.

DR.. Wilton Norris, the well-known
English physician, says: "The value Of
green food as a preservation of health
cannot be Overestimated. Nature pro-
duces her own remedies and many vege-
tables are actually medicinal.
Lettuce salad is a cure for insomnia.
Lemon juice can be used in place of
vinegar by dyspeptics. French physi-
clans call spinach the boon of the
stomach They prescribe it for people
with indigestion, and declare that a
dish of spinach is equal to a liver pill
Spring onions, sliced and stewed in
cream, are also good for Indigestion.
Onions always form part of the "a.
lions of ships bound for the arctic re.
gions, as they are a well-known prevent.
i've of scurvy.
"Dandelion salad is an excellent diu.
retic. Turnip tops stewed will purify
and strengthen the blood. Celery is a
good nerVine. Baked apples and stewed
prunes must be numbered among the
pleasant medicines. If in the spring
and summer one green vegetable is on
the dinner table each day for the
stomach's sake, the services of the FAM
lily physician are not apt to be needed

EooD ZOE WARM wEArHER.
Health ana Lie Itself Depend Upon
the Nature Of what
We Eat.

In the cold weather the appetite
demands farinaceous food; In warm
weather a very different class Of food
is needed. In winter four-lfths Of
our food goes to furnish fuel for the
body; we consequently need four
times as much in cold weather as
in hot, says American Queen.
Our food in summer as in winter
must contain carbonates for the
lungs, n~itrates for the muscles and
tissue and phosphates for the vital
powers; but we need them in different
proportions, according to our habits
of life and the temperature in which
we live.
Health, and indeed length of life,
+ in exact proportion to the care
we take to live in accordance with the
laws of u being. A strict observ-
ance Of these laws would prevent fe-
vers, summer complaints and many
fatal diseases.
During hot weather fat meats, butt
ter, fine -four and other stimulating
carbonaceous food should be avoided
and such articles substituted as con-
tain these principles in a less concen-
trated form, with acid fruits, fresh
vegetables and more Of the nitrates
and phosphates.
Every housewife has the health OF
her family in her W hands-no
small responsibility-and she should
learn the dietetic laws so as to be able
to give them the variety Of wholesome
food for summer and winter; for
work of brain, or work OF muscles;
and thus add to the length Of life and
comfort and well-being of her family.
