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. ■ PROGRAM OF Fanners lnsiidile •TT ! dealer* in OF 111 General Merchandise. Daih.o.nkua, thorn muku IOtii.

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.
