Talking of the bravery of wo
men a story lias come from China
to which it would ho, difficult to
find a parallel. Mrs. William If.
Logan is the wife of a medical mis
sionary in China, and when living
in the far interior of that' vast
land, eight hundred miles from
the nearest doctor, her husband
was stricken with appendicitis.
Dr. Logan saw that his only
ehanoe of recovery lay in an oper
ation, which he asked his wife to
perform-according to instructions
which he gave her. A more ap
palling position fora human be-
I ing to he in could scarcely bo im
agined; but this herioc woman,
! who might, perhaps, have scream-
; ed if a mouse had run over her
I feet, placed her husband under an
1 ftiia'sthetic, and with her unski1L
I ed hand successfully removed his
appendix. Afterward, when he
| had rallied sufficiently to bo re-
j moved, she took him eight hun-
i dred miles by wagon and rail to a
; physician who completed the cure.
A light Brahma lien belonging
to a neighbor, with her brood of
! twenty six, half her own and half
'adopted, wandered into our garden
one day lately and made straight
1 for the potato patch, where there
was an abundance of the half
grown slugs of the Colorado beetle
at work on the vines. Then fol
lowed sometbig which we never
noted before—the old hen feeding
her chicks these slugs until tht?y
could hold no more. Our previous
experience had been that neither
poultry of any kind nor any wild
birds would touch these* pests un
der any circumstances. This was
ono case where the neighbor’s
chickens in the garden-: proved a
blessing —Ex.

The Vagrant Law.
The truth of the old saying that
“a guilty conscience needs no ac
cuser” is vividly illustrated by
the bad time a woman has been
having with a hill for .$30 which
she ran up for groceries twenty-
seven years ago and left town
without-paying. It seems that
one E. B. Gonzales conducted a
large grocery business in East
Orange, N. J., about 80 years ago.
One of his customers was the wom
an who ran up the $80 debt. Mr..
Gonzales did suddenly in 1877,
leaving many accounts outstand
ing. His heirs did not realize
much on them. Mrs. Gonzales
moved to Illinois. As the years
wore on her debt began to haunt
her. Dull and morbid fancies
a III ictecl her. She could not sleep.
In fact for twenty-seven long
years she did not enjoy a single
night of sound, unbroken sleep,
so much did that $80 get on her
nerves. At last she consulted a
lawyer, who told her the only way
to enjoy a good night’s rest was
to pay her bill. The check
handed over and a receipt
given, and she slept soundly
10 o’clock the next morning.
The postnffice at Rocky Mount,
N. C., was recently advanced to
the second class, and the postmas
ter was advised that he might
name five assistants for appoint
ment in the office. Promptly lie
sent in the names of his four sorts
and oue daughter. The depart-( express between Moscow and
meut notified uitn that the post-
office cannot be made a family af
fair, because of the civil service
rules.

The legislature passed a sweep

support them, and who are able to
work and do not work.
All persons able to work, having
no property to support them, and
who have no visible or known
means of fair, honest and repu

ible and known means of a fair,
honest and reputable livelihood,’ as
used in this section, shall he con
st rued reasonably continuous cuts

or a fixed and regular income from

Persons having a fixed abode.,
