Girl Uses Hatpin.

At public school at Chetek, Goldie
Anderson, a girl of u, became angry at
the boys for untying her hair ribbons,
and stuck a hatpin into Homer Cook, a
boy of Is. The pin struck the boys back
bone and broke off. 1t was not known at
first that any of the pin remained in the
wound, because the girl, when reprimand-
ed, produced perfect pin. The boy was
in great agony and was taken to the Eau
Claire hospital, where an inch and a quar-
ter Of pin was taken out, revealing a bad
abscess. He will be disabled for some
time,

met in a New York tavern to celebrate
the great generals birthday. They then
agreed to assemble in future on that day,
celebrating it with odes and toasts'

to the presidency gave new zest to the
annual" so that in time it became gen
eral and finally grew into legal holi'
day," the people demanding 1t from q
custom.
The first public celebration of Wash
ington's birthday occurred on teo. H.
1884. and the anticipated occasion was
thus alluded to by the pennsylvania

remedy, and when the coughing spell
would come on at night l would take
a dose and it seemed that in the briefest
interval the cough would pass Of and I
would go to sleep perfectly free from
cough and its accompanying pains. To
say that the remedy acted as a most
agreeable surprise is putting it very
mildly. I had no idea that it would or
could knock out the grip, simply because
l had never tried it for such a purpose,
