A NEAR-F ABLE.

There was once gay young sport who believed in having a good time. The trouble was his idea of good time was not exactly up to the prop CT standard of morals, ethics and a lot of other things. When chided by relatives, warned by physicians and derided by others, he merely laughed good-naturedly and said: "Its never too late to mend" At 30 he became gray, at 35 he had paresis.
 Moral-It may never be too late to mend, but it is frequently too late to recuperate.

WHOLESALE POISONERS.

A remarkable case of wholesale poisoning has just come to light at the Hungarian market town of Kneez, in the county of Temesvar. On the strength of anonymous in- formation that half the persons re- gently buried in the cemetery there had died of poison, the authorities ordered 25 bodies to be exhumed, and analysts found considerable quantities of arsenic in 13 of them. So far four husbands and eight wives have been arrested on charges of suspected poisoning of their spouses. Among the arrested are two women who murdered two suc- cessive husbands, and one peasant who poisoned three wives. A woman named Petrubany was arrested when the discovery was first made, and now another woman called Hazyok has been arrested for providing the villagers with poison. Both poisoned their own husbands without exciting the least suspicion, and they made business of helping other women and men to get rid of their husbands or wives, taking payment in money or provisions, pigs, calves, etc.
