While dying of a cough, Deirl to hear the latest news While he was going off. I took the paper and I read Of some new pills in force ; He bought a box and Is he dead t No hearty as a hor?e. I knew two men, as much allkji As e'er yoii s;i r two sttimps ; And no phrenologist could rind A difference in their bumps. One takes the papers, and his life Is happier than a king'3; Ilis children all tan read and write. And talk ot men and things. The other took no paper, and, . While strolling in the wood, A tree fell ddjyn and broke his crown, And killed liiiu Hery good." Had he been reading of the, news, , - At home like neighbor Jim, I'll bet a cent that accident Would not have happened him. Why don't you take the papers? . Nor from the printer sneak. Because yoii borrow from his boy A paper every week. For he who takes the paper. And pays his bills when due. Can live in peace with God and man, And with tlie printer too.

Further along In the testimony, the Judge again stopped the witness peremptorily, and; interrogat ing liim with regit rd to some otlier event that liad transpired, asked . "How long previous to this did the flare-up occur?" "Judge," said tlie model witness, "please explain yourself ; what do yott mean by Such an expression as 'flare-up ?" and for a few moments that court-room trembled witii the laugh that went rip from that au dience. ...... - ITfefLTH and Police. We direct the attention of tlie city anthoriites to the pools ot -water standinsr on the Sides or streets and allies in various places in the city, These pools of water should be drained off before they breed any more disease.
