An orininal Party.

If you want something original in
the way OF entertainments try a
something new party. Each guest
at this festivity must bring something
newt matters not what, depending
wholly. upon the originality and fertile
brain of the guest to secure something
unknown to the rest Of the party.
AT function Of this sort recently
given by a bright girl from the south
the program was extremely diversi-
fed. The guests had brought entirely
new songs, which we're sung for the
company; new waltzes and two-steps,
which were danced; new books, which
were discussed; new jokes, new games,
new styles of hair dressing or gowns,
and several brought visiting friends,
new to the rest of the company.
The hostess tried to make the menu
as new" as possible and in it were
several new dishes, such as lemons
stuffed with raw oysters rolled in
cracker crumbs, chopped celery and
tomato sauce, and nodded brick OF
turkey and cranberries In lemon jelly.

Feudst Was Attending to Business

tative South Trimble of Kentucky,
but this talk reminds me of the in
quest they held over the body Of
Chad Howard down in my state. Chad
Howard was mixed up In one OF the
feuds, and he killed few OF them.
and they took him to the county jail,
which was a big affair, made with
very thick walls and but one window
and an ironbound door. Howard was
the only prisoner in the jail. One
night the jailer came In to keep him
company, and they began shaking a
friendly game of dice on box top,
with candle between them.
after the game had been going on
for half an hour man who was allied
with the other end Of the Howard
feud came up to the window, put a
double barreled gun through, and
blew off the top Of Howard's head.
They had an inquest, and the jailer
was the star witness. He described
Howard's death in minute detail.
Then the coroner said: Can you

words Of the deceased?

Some New Desserts.

Juice, may be used instead Of apples.

A pretty dessert is made with a
quart Of rich custard for a basis, and
for this the yolks Of three eggs are
to be used. When still hot half a
box of gelatine, dissolved in cold wa

I had been engaged in the practice
OF law for q period longer than care
