country. It is not true that Chinese
who cut Of their cues are executed.
They are not punished in any way

- At Palmer, Mass. December 3,
"Jack," shepherd dog owned by
Fredrick Gay, stopped a runaway
horse. Mr.. Gay left his horse on tho

- Comp.agsativeIy.:little jewelry was
worn by bhe'early people of the United
States. A few men had gold or silver
sleeve buttons, few womea had
bracelets or lookets, gnearly all Of sny
social standing had rings, which were
chiefly mourning rings. AS these
gloomy ornaments were given to all
the chief mourners at funerals, It csn

connections, or Of prominent social
standing, might acquire great many
of them. The minister and doctor
usually had ring at every funeral
they attended. 1t was told of an old
Salem doctor, who died IN 1853, that
he had a tankard full of mourning
rings which he had secured at funerals.
Men osomctimes wore thumb rings,
which seems no queer that the fact
that they carried muffs.
