Wagon Was on Fire.

CHANGING over her shoulder she saw. that
the wagon was on fire back of the seat
The flames were being whipped eight feet
high by the wind and were sWirling from
Under the seat behind her husband and
burning his back. q
Mrs. Schick slipped wooden shawl from
her shoulder and threw it around her
husband dragging him from the wagon
Mr.. Schlck stouty denied that he was on
fire, and insisted that she desist. Mrs
Sch1ck succeeded in smothering the fire
with her shawl.
1t is remarkable that Mrs Schick's
clothing did not take fire, but the sup
position is that the wind held the fire on
FER husbands side of the wagon. The
supports of the seat were nearly burned
off and the bottom had been burned out
OF the wagon. the groceries bought in
town having been lost on the road.
Case Is Very Pulling.
The doctor summoned to attend the
sufferer reports he found that his entire
back was burned, one-half of it being
burned to a crisp. the burning being what
the doctors call a third degree. The
front of his body was blistered-burned
in the first degree, excepting a strip
about ten inches wide exactly in front
Mr.. Schich insists he did not feel the
fire.
There is no satisfactory explanation
of the reason why Schick did not feel
him, and who gives the story, made in
quiry He found that Schick had taken
two or three drinks while in town, but
was not drunk. Again, he had driven
twelve miles, facing Q stiff breeze, and
the influence of the liquor he did drink
should have worn off, at least sufficient
ly to admit of his feeling the flames
The doctor stated that the case was an

them.

FROG INSIDE OF WOMAN
PHYSICIANS REMOVE 1T ALIVE
FROM PATIENTS STOMACH
For Three Years She Has Complaint
ed of Acute Pain, but Doctors, In
creduIOus, Called Her Suffering
Indfgesticn-She Now Has Reptile
in Alcohol.

NEW YORK. April ga patient has
just been discharged from st. Catharine's
hospital in Brooklyn whose case is said
to be the most remarkable in the history
of that institution.
A live frog nearly four inches in length
was removed from the stomach of a wom-
an. The patient, Mrs Charles Burtis Of
HOpeweH Junction, N Y, believes that
the frog had been in her stomach at least
five years. 1t is supposed that she swaI-
lowed it in egg form or as a pollywog
while drinking water from a country
spring.
Mrs. Burtis was formerly Miss Ada Sea-
brooke, a trained nurse well known to
many of New York's most eminent physi-
clans, including Dr.. Janeway and DR.. Nc
Birney. She met her husband, who is
a Hopewell Junction business man. while
on a vacation at Sylvan Lake, and they
were married about eight years ago.
Her Appetite Abnormal.
About three years after her maFg,age
Mrs. Burtis began to feel pains in her
stomach far more acute than could be
caused by Indigestion. Medicine prescribed
for her by many doctors did no good.
AS the months passed her sufferings in
creased. What seemed to be the most puz-
zling symptom was her abnormal APP
petite. She could eat more than three
average women.
She complained constantly of feeling
something tearing at her stomach, as If
there was something alive there but was
Informed by her physicians that this was
impossible. Her sufferings were most
severe Immediately after eating certain
kinds of food. Finally she consulted DR.
Ralph A. Hayt, of F'ishkill, N ", who
decided to submit her to an X-ray ex-
animation. DR.. Hayt formerly belonged to
the surgical staff of St. Catharine's hos
pital and he sent his patient to that in
stitution.
Find Frog While Operating.
The X-rays disclosed a dark object in
her stomach, but what it was no one
could tell. Not until DIR. Hayt, assisted by
DIR. Gogswell, of the hospital staff, per-
formed the operation and removed the
live frog, was the cause of her ailment
disclosed.
Because of the fact that Mrs Burtis
was a private patient in st. Catharina's,
DR.. Gogswell would not give any details
of the case. He admitted that the opera
tion had been performed and that the
woman had taken the frog away with her,
preserved in alcohol, when she left the
hospital.
AT the hospital a young physician, who
requested that his name be withheld. said
the frog was of medium size and that it
had lived about an hour after it was
taken from the patients stomach 1t
was fat

In pretty little homily uttered in a
confidential Off-hand manner. Andrew
Carnegie told the graduating class of the
General Society of Mechanics and Trades
men that wealth was a delusion and a
snare, and that it never brings happi-
ness or satisfaction. He also found occa-
sion to praise the German race and Ger
man-Americans.
1t was the first time in nine years the
millionaire had been in the society s
building, in West Forty-fourth street
and after that occasion he had donated
$500 to the society. that it's home might
be furnished fittingly, And before he ap-
peared before the graduates and their
friends, he made a tour through the
building and expressed his delight that
lads who work for their living by day
had such pleasant place to pursue their
studies each evening.

Through fortunate circum- stances it reached home and was pre- served by c. R. DeJarnette, one of the original members of the company and by him, turned over to me many years ago. It was presented to us by the ladies of our community.

All will feel they are in safe hands, and will be duly appreciated. The roll of the company accompanying the flag tells how faithful those noble hoys were to the pledges made when they received it from the hands of the donors. The bat ties recorded there and the casualties of those terrible days, partly tells of what they endured, but the weary marches. hunger, exposure to cold and heat, sickness and death in the dreaded hospitals, the wounded and dead to fill unknown graves in Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania can never be told.

Green Soap Making.

Green soap Is an indispensable prepara- ton to the woman who would preserve the lustre and richness of her hair. It IS prepared and prescribed by all persons who make speciality of scalp treatment The following recipe was obtained from the wife of a prominent physician who prepares the liquid soap for her husband. Take equal parts of the very best green castle soap, water. alcohol and glyce- rine. Heat the water and shave the soap into it. Then stir 1t over the fire until 1t is perfectly smooth. Add the giycerfne and stir again very thoroughly. The al- cohol is added last of all. mixed with two ounces of essential oil of any preferred scent. A small quantity of oil of orris gives a suggestion of violet. while oil of verbena or oil ofsweet geranium gives an old-fashioned, wholesome scent Of course the alcohol Is volatile and inflam- mable and should not be carelessly dis tributed over a hot fire: otherwise, green soap making Is extremely simple.
