Sheriff James Mc Devitt of Dakota county will be removed from office for failure to suppress a public steer killing contest at Premo park last September. Governor Eberhart has instructed his private secretary to write the findings in the case as he h2s dictated them. As soon as this is done formal action will be taken. *“The Governor censures Sheriff Mc- Devitt,” Secretary Wheelock said, “and finds that he was guilty of non- feasance while in office. The con- test should have been stopped. The Governor debated for some time whether or not the sheriff should only be censured and permitted to remain in office until the expiration of his term, December 31. It is said that his failure to stop this contest result- ed in his defeat in the recent elect- ion.” Just to “‘keep you fit,” a few doses of Tubbs Bilions Man’s Friend, now and then, does wonders.

John Wesley as a Physician and Some of His Remedies. It is not generally known that John ‘Wesley in one of his brief intervals of leisure published a sort of medical vade mecum called not inappropriately “Primitive Physic.” It was first pub- lished in 1747, and it ran into at least twenty-four editions. The author was greatly surprised there was so swift and large a demand for it. In the later editions he was able to add the word “Tried” to certain remedies the virtues of which he had meanwhile found opportunities of testing. After| five years’ careful trial and notwith- .standing the objections of the learned he recommends for the ague “to go into the cold bath just before the cold fit,” but omits to say how to time the coming of the fit. To prevent apoplexy use_the cold bath and drink only wa- ter. 'If this proves useless and a. fit should ‘declare itself you have only to “put a handful -of salt with a pint of cold water and if possible pour it down the throat of the patient” To cure asthma “take a pint of cold wa- ter every morning, washing the head thereln immediately after” Wesley glves four ways of curing old age— “take tar water morning and evening” or “a decoction of nettles” or “be elec- trified daily” or “chew cinnamon daily and swallow your saliva.” The twe great panaceas in the Wesleyan doc- trine are the use qf cold water and the use of electricity, and at the end of the book are columns of every sort of disease which may be overcome by these simple "expedients.—St. James' Gazette, Warned. 2 “Too many ccoks spoil the broth,” quoted the wise guy. “Yes, just as too.many appetizers spoil the appetite,” agreed the simple mug. —Philadelphm Record.

There Was No Applauss, Just before the operation began the operating surgeon sald to-the students, “Now, gsntlemen no applause‘ if you please.”. , When he was convalescing ' the pa- tient declared that that warning re- mained his mést’ vivid impression of the ordeal, “I wondered then how any human being could have the heart to applaud sn act that had brought another face to face with death, but later 1 under- stood. - On account of heart trouble they did not dare administer an anaes- thetic, so I was conscious of every- thing, and in spite of the pain I re- alized that the surgeon was doing a mighty: skillful piece of work. No wonder. the students wanted to ap- plaud.-. They were justified in it. “‘Some years ago they would have -clapped the house down after an ex- hibition of that kind, an old hospital ‘attendant told me, ‘but nowadays doc- tors discourage any such demonstra- tion.” ”—New York Sun. Forgery In Excelsis. The most remarkable literary for- gery on record was perpetrated in 1870 on Michael Chasles, a French scien- tist of European reputation. Chasles, who was in his dotage, purchased within .a few years from one Vrain- Lucas no fewer than 27,000 auto- graphs. A. M. Broadley tells the story in his *“Chats on Autographs:” *“Be- ginning with a supposed correspond- .| ence between the youthful Newton and Pascal, Vrain-Lucas proceeded to fabricate letters of Rabelais, Montes- quieu and La Bruyere. Before he had finished M. Chasles became the posses- sor of letters in French, and written on paper made in' France, of Julius Cae- sar, Cleopatra. Mary Magdalene and even of Lazarus after his resurrec- tion.” ' Vrain-Lucas was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment, and among other forged manuscripts from his pen there were produced in court letters from Alexander the Great, Herod, Pompey, Judas Iscariot, Sappho, Pon- tius Pilate and Joan of Arc! The Llama With a Saddle. In his native country the llama is trained as a beast of burden, and in this capacity is very useful for, hard and wiry by nature, he can carry as much as a 160 pounds. As a mount. too, he is quite easy to train. Indeed. both the llama and the oneiko take to the saddle as to the manner born when once they have assured them- selves that their teacher wishes them well. Their most striking peculiarity as saddle animals. however, is a strong objection to having their heads in any way pulled abouf by their riders. So long as their mouths are left alone they will amble along quite contented- ly at a fair rate of speed, but if they are ridden by some one with a_heavy hand they show a tendency to stop at once; whipping round in a2 manner dis- tinetly disconcerting to those who do not quite realize what is going to hap- pen.—Wide World Magazine. Turn About. In a certain southern city the col- ored servants. as a rule, go to their own homes at night. The cook in the family of a clergyman not only does this, but of late has arrived at the rectory too late to cook breakfast. Hence her mistress lately told ber that for each breakfast missed there would be a reduction in her weekly wages. Dinah passively assented to this, but next day the mistress heard the maid next door say to her: “’Pears to me you get to work mighty late.” *1 gets to work when I gets ready,” was the reply. “How does you manage about de brekfus?” “Oh, I pays de missus to cook de brekfus.’ ”—Housekeeper. A Schoolboy’s Story of Jonah. A school board boy. competing for one of the Peek prizes, evolved this confusion of widely different events. He had to write a short biography of Jonah, and he produced the follow- ing: “He was the father of Lot and had two wives, One was called Ish- male and the other Hagher.

What She Did Wish. “Well, why don’t you say you wish you were a man?’ asked Mr. Potts during ‘a little discussion he was hav- ing with his spouse about .some mat- ters of domestic management, “Because 1 don't wish anything of the sort,”” she retorted; “I only wish you were one!” Quick Both Ways. A Scutch laird once said to his serv- ant, John, who had complained of his temper, “I. am sure, John, it is nae suner on than it's off.” “Aye,” said John; “but, laird, it's nae suner off than it's on.” [ Not at All Necessary. “What was the cause of the quarrel with your husbflnd?" “ want: you to understand. judge, that when ‘we want to fight we don’t have to have a cause.”—New York Press.
