About 17 School Trustee Ed Ashbrook, whose father then kept a grovery, was seut to deliver a sack of bran rof. J. T. Ross, now superintendent of the Broadway school building. He took the braa back to the stable. and was instructed to.cut the sack and empty the bran into the bin. He had no} koi! nd Prof. Ross gave him his to cut open the sack. In doing so the open knife fell into the bran, and was never recovered. Prof. Ross took care not to let it get into the bran so the cow could eat it, but strange to say, the knife was never found, instituted for it when gave out. A few years ago Prof. Ross sold the same cow he had at the time to Mr, Ulrich Beyer, the butcher, and the animal was killed. Io every cow there is a receptacle for the solids they e Whenever butcher kills one, he ys, for cu tiosity, cuts this receptacle to see what he can find. When it was sev- ered in this particular cow, the k ife in fairly good condition, aud cpen, was found. He did not know whose knife 1 was until yesterday, when the facts were accidently connected and Prof. Ross’ knife identified. Mayor Lang has been delegated to return to the venerable professor his long lost knife, and Trustee Ashbrook will doulitless be present to see it returned after all these many years. Mr. Beyer says that there is hardly ever less than a handful of nails io every cow’s stomach, and sometimes there are more. He now has 15 feet of rope gotten out of one cow's stom- ach a few lays ago. although a search the bran years ago], HEART DISEASE. Some Facts Regarding the Rapid Increase of Heart Troubles, Do Not Be Alarmed, But Look tor the Cause; Heart troubl at least among Americans, are certainly increasing and while this may be largely due tu the excitement and worry of \meri- can business life, it is more often the result of weak stomachs, of poor di- gestion. rganic heart disease is in- curable; but not one case in a bun- dred of heart trouble is organic. Tbe close relation between heart trouble and poor digestion is because both organs are controlled by branches of the same great nerves, and pneumogastric affected by that form of poor dige tion, which causes gas and fermenta- tion from half digested food ; e is ateeling of oppression and heavitiess in the chest caused by pressure of the distended stomach’ on the heart and lungs, interfering with their go. tion; hence arises palpitation ang short breath. 4 Poor digestion also poisons {he blood, makes it thin and Watery, which irritates and weakens the heart The most sensible treatment for heart irouble is to improve the qiges. tion and to insure the prompt aggimi- lation of food.

Condactor Peeples, of Gould ave- une, yesterday found several specks of some foreign substance in a bucket of lard, some butter and boiled ham, and one or two articles of food, His suspiclons were aroused, es- pecially when he saw where someone had made cuts in the lard and butter with a knife, as if to work in the poison, The lard was taken to Dr. A, List, at Robertson’s drug store, and the foreign substance was found to be arsenic. There was quite a quantity of it in the food, but Dr. List does not think the quantity was sufficient to kill. . The object was no doubt to poison the conductor and his family. He does not know who could have at- tempted such a cowardly trick, but a suspicion that it was a colored man with whom he had had trouble previously. The matter was reported to the police who are investigating it, with a hope of catching the culprit. OHURCH SOCIETY.
