T. Anderson, aged twenty-six. Three years ago he died from his neck downward. His head, how ever, is alive, and more vigorous .and active than before the body, -which it once governed, ceased to 0 be vital At the age of two James' father died, and his mother soon married again. At the age of three he was tossed several times by an angry cow. Shortly after ward, while he was eating bread and milk, a rattlesnake joined him, .and when the two had linished his pnakeship made his bow and re tired. At live years old a horse raiyiway with him, and made for a stable, across the entrance of which was a bar. The horse rush ed in under the bar, and his moth er seized him just in time to save his life. He grew up active and j strong, and was fond of sports. IIe6became a good gymnast. James, at the time of the acci dent that left him with a dead body and a living head, was a tine, two hundred pounds, and there was not an ounce of superfluous tlcsh on his body. One afternoon, when on a visit -5 to an uncle at Glemvood, Iowa, he 0 was exercising on a pole placed from one tree to another 111 the backyard, lie had on a pair of gaiters tipped with patent leather. He swung down from the pole by his feet; the leather slipped and he fell. lie struck his neck just where it joins the shoulders. He o was bewildered but perfectly con scious. Ilisjbody felt as though smashed to a icily. He experi enced a horrible tingling, and when the doctor came he t ld him not to touch him as his body was broken to pieces. His neck was broken; inflammation set in, and all thought his end was come. To the surprise of all, in a few days 0 lie began to mend. He was short ly after removed to his step-father's house, where he still resides, Time hung lieavilv on his hands, and he resolved to try to learn to writelwith his mouth. He accom plished this, and, as he says in a letter to J. K. Nutting, he soon wrote a tolerably good mouth. He is now trying to paint, and hopes by this means to obtain something for his support. He lias been, and still is, tenderly eared for by his sister, herself a cripple, and speaks in the highest terms of his step-lather, who, though a poor man, has shown him every kindness. His worst enemies are the ilies which buzz about his face. He holds a leafy twig in his mouth, however, ond manages to twirl it about in a wonderful manner to drive oil his tormentors. This case is without parallel, exc-ei.t that of John Carter of EiMan.l 1 Avho was injured in a similar way, and who became a lamous painter. St. L oues jl uncs. rtt Fire-Pro oHing Shingle Roofs. In this country, where shingle is the pivailing roof, at least in the rural districts, a simple method of rendering them impervious to tire ought to be acceptable to every owner of a dwelling thus covered. Even in the hearts of old cities, many old houses oiler these almost tinder-like roofs to the flames and cinders 'whenever a contlagration occurs in the neighborhood. It is, therefore, important to know that a wasli composed of lime, salt,and line sand or wood-ashes, put on in the ordinary way of whitewash, renders the roof fifty-fold more safe against fu from falling cinders, in case of fire in the vicinity. It pays the expenses a hundred-fold in its preserving influence against the effect of the weather; the older and the more weather-beaten the shingles, the more benefit derived. Such shingles are generallv more r less warped, rough, and cracked. 1 he application of wash, bv wet ting the upnor surface, rJstores them to thoir original or first form. mere ov cic as old sldngk-s, and thus the otlen vc glare of a whitewashed roof maybe avoided.-llchnulot l ' livin,. 1!. . , i the fmW.w o ' , "LLvl'-n ! deal ot penitence, iiesaia ne was sand by ml, n tU V"ne an'1 oriv tlat ho had permitted his sana, lniing up tisc ci-iot-c . .. . i i n vents it warpin- 1 v .Sr-' nn?Qr to obtam tbe mastery of him, f a small Juantitv of H1! ! d suffer him to do such an the wAsh ra.iv bo of tl, c,,1 "K i act cause it was a good chair, -ill'' 11tlw,i4 v-.-ii.-.. 1 . . . . 1 r --it Miscellaneous Items The clay to pick your wife is Choose-day.

A Ilacine (Wisconsin) girl want ed her lover to swear on the Bible that she was all the world to him, and when he wouldn't she knocked him down with the sacred volume. A colored preacher of Marion, S. C, is spending his summer va cation in the penitentiary for hog stealing. A woman that marries a man simply because he is a good match, must "not be surprised if he turn out a Lucifer.

An observer of human nature reports that he has seen some peo ple possessing the peculiarity of three hands a right hand, a left hand, and a little behind hand. Susan T.

A student at Yale started the class at recitation the other day. "What stars never set asked the professor, and "lioost-ars !" was the prompt reply, sub voce. Mrs. Woodhull never writes any thing herself, he dictates much; but all that appears over her name is written out by some other hand than her own.
