Sixteen years ago Albert Mills of
Birmingham, was nearly six feet tall,
weighing 100 pounds, and big, sturdy.
robust man, an engraver by trade. To.
day he is shrunken to less than four
feet, and every bit of him except the
head is gradully getting to infantile
size. He sleeps in baby's cot, is totally
blind, but has all his other faculties. His
affliction is known as osteomalachia. 1t
is a very rare, and disease hitherto
scarcely ever known outside one district
in Northern Italy and one on the Rhine
in Germany.
The bones turn to chalk, and fracture
at the slightest touch, and the flesh
becomes as wax, and shrinks. II Mr..

rare one but known in the United
States at Bellevue Hospital New York.
The man has been growing to absurd
proportions, even bis eyes growing larg-
er. He is 50 big now that he cannot
walk, and1it Is only 6 matter of months
before he will die. A bed in the hospital,
improvised out Of six ordinary beds, is
required to accommodate him.

Arthur A. Greene, who retired as
managing editor of the Union at the
close of last week, is a young man of
extraordinary literary ability and he
will no doubt make his mark as
writer of fivtion and poetry. Political

distasteful to him and that fact prob
ably had more than anything else to
do with his retirement as editor of a

taking an active part in factional poll

Greene great success and prosperity

LANDING ON GRASS.

There are situations where 1t is de-

grain are scarce and the means not at

Landing until grass comes-when, in
deed, grass is the chief asset Of the
shepherd-it Is wise to time the lamb

such a eve respond in her milk flow

lamb come after grass has started

It Is most wise, however, to see to it
that these late Landing ewes are
strengthened by some supplementary
feeding before the lambs appear. A
little grain feed then will repay its
cost several times. The shepherd who

Scatter the Flock, Feed the Ewes.
It is desirable to scatter the flock as

plan to lamb them on some specially
good piece Of grass, and to aid In keep

lambs will be saved by Landing on

THE STANDARD NOT A JOKE.

funny, but not SO blank funny. So one
might say of the defenses of the Stand

Nobody believes these defenses true
