Attorney General Thatcher intends

through the medium of a corporation
formed by the depositors and credit

The attorney general regrets the
action of Governor Oddie in refusing

whether or not Judge Langan should

Glass Cuttinu,

The layman who is introduced to the
mysteries of cutting glass for the first
time is amazed at the amount of work
that the workman does entirely by bis
eye. The first stage Of the bowl which
is to be cut finds it in a perfectly plain
condition, not a scratch upon it and
only a.half dozen or more marks in red
chalk. which lean absolutely nothing
to the Impractical eye. But TO the
workman they mean the whole pat
tern. Perhaps the dish is a salad bowl.
The marks in chalk will run from the
edge, five intervals apart, down to the
center Of the bowl at the bottom In
one of the divisions OF the bowl thus
marked there may be a little further
marking i'll the shape perhaps Of ada
mond. This indicates the pattern into
which the bowl is to be cut, and it will
be repeated in each Of the FIVE divi-
sions. All the intricacies of the design
the workman has in bis head. and they
develop on the glass In a way which
seems to the locker on absolutely mar
velous.-New York Times. ~ ,

Mercury POISONING.

II would suggest" says a doctor,
that, whenever persons are, found to
have swallowed b%ichloride Of mercury,
several eggs be forced down their
threats. The albumen in the eggs will
form a chemical compound with the
mercury, which will be insoluble. Then
the poison will pass out through the
fntestines Or be vomited by the vic
TIM. 1t is 1always a good thing to
