The price OF many drugs used In
medicine is astonishing to those who
are not acquainted with the subject"
remarked n druggist to n Philadelphia
Times representative. There are sew
eral that are worth their weight in gold
about $50 an ounce. while 81. 81 and
IS an ounce are quite common prices
In pharmacy. But there is one drug
that l can recall which is worth more
thai Its weight in gold. This is pseudo
physostiglnine. I don't think that it
has n popular name. II is too rich for
that. In the pharmacists list it is
quoted at 81 a grain. or Si37.J0 an
ounce. The seed from which the drug
Is mad grows in india and Brazil. as
well as in parts of South Africa. This
seed, tradition says. was once used by
native chiefs IS an ordeal. The ordeal
generally resulted in the death OF the
man upon whom it was tried and so it
was considered as a great truth finder.
The prepared drug is sometimes used
now in prescriptions for the treatment
of heart disease"

The mule is ready to begin work two
or three years earlier than the horse.
He a be put to pretty heavy pulling
when he is three years old. and from
that time until he is forty. IL he has
fair treatment and does not meet with
an accident. he is not likely to lose any
time. He is not subject to the many
ailments to which the horse Is a vic
tim, Mt least not to any great degree.
He lives about twice as long. and his
actual period OF usefulness Is nearly
three times as long. for the horse is
really not fit for heavy service until he
is five years old or after he is twenty,
while a mule will often do good service
for forty years, and they have been
known to work fifty. according to one
writer, without being turned nj at
any time during all that long period.
Lik the ass, the mule will live upon
next to nothing. and during all his for
ty years OF hard service n mule will
not require-and generally does not get
half the feed necessary to sustain a
horse during his much shorter period
Of usefulness.

The following verses were handed us
by p. l.. Howard, whose wife was
buried here last week. with the re-
quest that we publish them.

Well read the meaning of our tears,
And there, some time, we'll under

Wen catch the broken thread again.
And finish what we here began;
Heav'n will mysteries explain,
And then, ah, then, we'll under
stand,
Well know why clouds instead of sun,
Were owe many a cherished plan:
Why song has ceased when scarce be-
gun;
It's there, some time we'll under
stand,
Why what we long for most of all,
Eludes 5" oft, our eager hand;
Why hopes are crushed and castles
fall,
Up there, some time, we'll under
stand,
God knows the way, He holds the
key,
He guides us with unerring hand;
Some time with fearless eyes we'll
see;
Yes, there, up there, we'll under
stand.
Then trust in God through all thy
days:
Fear not, for He doth hold thy
hand,
Though dark thy way, still sing and
praise;
Some time. some time. Wen under

The term eating crow" comes from
an ante Revolutionary story. A sol
der of an English regiment stationed
In Virginia shot a pet crow belonging
to a farmer. The latter entered a
complaint with the colonel, who sen.
fenced the soldier to eat the crow.
The farmer was left alone with the
soldier 10 see that he did it. After
the soldier had consumed a portion OF
the bird he took his gun, presented 1t
at the farmer and told him to eat the
remainder of the crow or he would
shoot him. This was the origin of the
eating crow story.

no right to do business in Nevada. Muier

in Jail and his methods are such that 1T
