HORSES WERE STARVING.
Burlinet ton Humane Society Finds tn
Worst Case in its History.

The worst case of cruelty that has yet
come under the notice of the Burlington
Humane society was reported Thursday
to Agent John Fuller lie learned that
pair of horses at "a North street had
been shockingy neglected for some time
past and upon investigation he found that
the animals suffcrings were not due t.
sickness but to starvation.
1t appears that the horses had had Moth
ing to eat but damaged straw since au-
tlmn and for three weeks past ono OF
the horses had lain III the barn so eAhaus,-
cd as to be unable to raise itself This
horse was left unhitchcd and wand red
about the barn until it dropped exhausted.
So great was its hunger that it had eaten
away u large portion of the side and fir mt
of it's stall. 1t has been heard nounderiug
on the floor for the past three weeks but
people residing in that section were not
aware of the suffcrings of either horse
until the shocking revelations were madc
by Thursday Investigations.
The other horse was younger and stood
the priVations better than its mate "a
though it. too, was in "A ptiablc condition.
The agent took this animal to shelter and
administered food to it and it is quite
certain that ii can be saved, but the othor
one was shot in the place where it WIS
found.
The horses were said to be worth so
apiece last summer. They are the prop
crty of George Tanltard, whose exact
whereabouts are unknown lie is al
man against whom complaint was mad
last summer for beating and ill-trcatiH g
an adopted son. The animals were u
charge of Joseph Hicks a brother-in-l w
of Tanhard and he has been placed und e
arrest In the afternoon he was hrouE
before JuJgc Hawkins. but the hoari Z
was continued. bail being fixed ~
$500, which he WAS unable to secure.

A FAMILY JAR.



Christmas day was not "A happy one for
the family of Joseph Bissett because of
differences which occurred between the
husband and wife. ON Christmas night
Mrs. BisSctt left the house with the re-
mark that she was going to see her sister.
Hissott suspected that she wished to meet
81 gentleman friend by the name Of Far

result that he saw them talking together.
From that point on the testimony of
Mr.. and Mrs. Bissctt is remarkable for )

Home Remedies.

The following simple remedies are
Given for the benefit of those who
have formed the habit of taking pat
ent medicines. Everybody is advised
to give these remedies a fair trial;
they surely can do no good and may
do some harm:
To Cure Toothache-When tooth
begins to jump tie same down by
means of stout rope, SO that jumping
is impossible. If tooth continues to
ache go to some dentist who has a
pull.
To Cure Insomnia-Shut your eyes
and count gray sheep. which you must
imagine you see jumping over 4 pair
of bars. Count from sheep No. 1 up
to sheep No. 57.432. By that time it
will be daylight and you will be
obliged to get up.
To Relieve Distress After Eating
Stop eating.
To Remove a Wart-Try fling it
off and if the wart does not succumb
to this use a stump puller If this
fails try saying words over it, but
don't swear so hard that the neigh
bors will hear you.-Ohio State Jour
nal.

Little Hints,

Marsh-grass green is rare shade
though it does happen to be common
this season in certain localities
which colors the lawns after a fort
night or two of successive rains.
Grief reigns among the dressmak-
ers, the shaped tlounce is relegated to
the oblivion of old styles. 1t was so
convenient and economical, as we'll
as graceful, that we sigh at it's de-
parture.
Rain-washed blue and marsh grass
green are the latest inventions in
color. This news comes direct from
Paris. Rain-washed blue is that tint
of faded cerulean which may be seen
in the sky between the clouds of q
thundershower.
Another convenience whose death
knell has been rung-is the girdle
corset. l suppose we were OVERRIDING
it and torturing long-suffering abd,-
men by straps and bands. The new
waist line is higher in front and the

A corsage decoration is made OF

yoke and bolero effect combined.
Straps of the ribbon and embroidery
are drawn up under the arm to meet
a yoke of ribbons crossed in diamond
shapes over lace. The joining Of the
bolero straps and the yoke is accen-
tuated if the ribbon is rose-colored by
lunches of tiny ribbon roses with
