O’NEILL, • NEB. DUST AND FILTH. Mud Ii Kecommemled by PUyvlclaat as m Health Preserver. In London it wad noticed that when the streets were muddy there was a marked diminution of diseases that were prevalent when dust is blowing. Bowel troubles are plentiful when peo ple are compelled to inhale dust. Con sumption, too, often gets its start from dust. Other illnesses almost equally grave follow from the breath ing of flying particles of filth. Add sufficient water to transform the dust into mud, and the power for harm is gone, for mud is not inhaled. The germs that infest dry mud become in ert in mud, because these germs, vi cious as they are, are too lazy to go anywhere unless they are carried. Moreover, mud is very likely to get ultimately into the drain pipe, and the germs are carried oif where they can do no harm. Kven when mud dries on the clothing and is brushed off the dust that-arises therefrom does not appear to bo as dangerous as that which has not been recently wet. It will thus be apparent that there is a bright side to mud, and henceforth all but the most fastidious will revel in muddy streets. Many physicians may advise their more weakly patients to go abroad in search of exercise only when tho roads are muddy. Rich men may be looked for to have special mud spots somewhere on their grounds while sanitariums may bo expected to advertise that all tho walks about *helr buildings are so constantly attended to that mud is guaranteed every day in the year. Mud baths have long been utilized, and mud would seem certain to become one of the great curative agents of the near future. Yet wise medicos are learning nothing that has not been known for ages to mothers of large families in rural districts, whero "playing in tho mud” has al ways been known as the children's healthiest pastime. —Boston Tran script. A REVEREND LADY’S HORSE. Anltntil Compel* Stable-Keeper to Wear Skirt and Sunbonnet. Rev. Anna Shaw's friends are rela ting an incident concerning a horse which Miss Shaw purchased while on a visit to Gape Cod. The reverend lady is a good judge of horseflesh, be sides befng highly accomplished in numerous other ways. She has been heard to declare that David Harum himself would have difficulty in over reaching her in tho matter of a trade. The Cape Cod animal which she pur chased proved to be satisfactory as to speed, temper and disposition, and for several days Miss Shaw looked after his wants herself, there being no man on the premises just at that time. Rev. Anna finally secured tho services of a man servant just as she was leav ing to deliver a lecture In a town not far from Boston. The man entered tho stall to perform tho usual duties of a stable help and was at once kicked Into insensibility. Ho soon recovered, but refused to go near the horse again and tho animal fared rather poorly un til Miss Shaw’s return. Then another man was hired, but he met a similar reception. A third keeper was en gaged, Miss Shaw conscientiously in forming him as to the experience of his two predecessors. The newcomer made some inquiries as to the ante cedents of the horse and found that It had always been eared for by the wife of Us former owner. Borrowing a skirt and an old sunbonnet from Miss Shaw the man went up to the horso in safety and from that day to this has never had any trouble with the animal. An Alban? 1’oet. William Crossweil Doane, Episcopal bishop of tho diocese of Albany, who has just isucd a volume of poems, is one of Albany’s striking figures. lie dresses in tho style of the English clergyman, and in personal appearance he would readily be mistaken for an Englishman. In his walks about the state capital the bishop is always ac companied by his faithful dog, a fine specimen of the Great Dane breed. Whenever the bishop is invited to de liver tho prayer in the senate or as sembly he bids his dog lie down in the corridor and wait for him. Then he hands the animal his shovel hat. The dog takes it between his teeth and nev er budges until the bishop returns. What would happen if any one at tempted to take the hat away from him is a mere matter of conjecture, for no one has over had tho temerity to try tho experiment.—Chicago Journal. Over Mountain to Death. While descending from Camp McKin ney to Jolly Creek, H. C., the horse hauling Hoff’s mail stage bolted, and could not ho controlled by Andrew Kirkland, the driver. Finally the horses left the road and dashed over the bank dragging the stage down the steep in cline. Passengers, horses and coach rolled over and over and into the creek below. Kirkland was Instantly killed, his neck being broken. Of the passen gers, one, a woman, had her collar bone broken and besides was badly bruised. Harry Nicholson was seriously Injured, and another male passenger was also hurt. The horses were kille .. The Advent of Coffee About the year 1600 coffee began to be talked of in Christendom as a rare and precious medicine. In 1615 it was brought to Venice, and in 1621 Burton spoke of it In his "Anatomy of Melan choly” as a valuable article which he had heard of but not seen. In 1652 Sir Nicholas Crlspe, a Levant merchant opened in London the first coffee house known in lingiand, the beverage being prepared by a Greek girl brought over for the work. Other coffeo houses In I abundance were soon opened. Postponed Owing to the fact that it will be impossible for us to receive all our goods by Saturday, October 5, the date named for our open ing, we have been compelled to postpone our display until Satur October 12, when the greater portion of our new goods will have arrived. MANNS. War Destroy* Forest*. Twenty-five years ago, In 1876, Ser via was clothed with forests and was aptly termed “the land of the forest,” but the Servlan-Turco troubles of 1876-78 played havoc with the forests. Thousands of acres were stripped of trees in order to serve for fortifications or to bar the advance of the Turkish army or to warm the great masses of troops that camped on the land during two winters. The war was followed by a period of ruthless destruction of the forests, vast tracts being sold at a rid iculous price or denuded to supply the railroads. Tot Onuses Night Alarm. “One night my brother’s bnby wns tnken with Croup,” writes Mrs. J. C. Snider, of Crittenden, Ky., “it seemed it wood strnngle before we could get a doctor, so we gave it Dr. King’s New Discovery, which gave quick relief and permanently cured it.
