Thin, Pale

One satisfaction in 'giving Scott's Emulsion to children is they never object to it. The fact is, they soon become fond of it. Another satisfaction is because it will make them plump, and give them growth and prosperity. It should be gfocn to all children who arc thin, or too pale. It does not make them over-fat, hut

plump. It strengthens the digestiveorgans and the nerves, and furnishes material for rich blood.

WHITE CANNIBALS.

Kecorda Sk«w That Lot# of 1 rtnli Is Not Confined to Tk« (juration has recently be*n asked by a French scientist whether white people were ever cannibals. An English Journal says that ao far as the records of primitive man are trustworthy they show that whether white, brown or black, he was a cannibal. Within hisr torlc times the evidence of Homer and Herodotus shows that the inhabitants of northeastern Europe and of the Caspian region were strongly suspected of cannibalism. Again, ther« is the authority of St. Jerome in support of I the statement that the BritlBh contingent enlisted by Theodoslus were cannibals and that cannibalism was flh« rule rather than the exception among the anciont Scots. There is a whitebearded race of savages among the forests of Maranon, in South America, supposed to be descended from deserters and stragglers from the Spanish conquerors, who are believed to be cannibals. After the English conquest in the fourteenth century, parts cf

Scotland were reduced to such fearful desolation that in places the unfortunate inhabitants were driven to cannibalism through sheer lack of food. During the first half of the seventeenth century the cannibal family of Alexander B«4n or Sawney Beane, flourished on the coast of Galloway. Before Its extermination the family consisted of eight sons and eighteen grandsons, six daughters and fourteen granddaughters. One of the girls, a mere Infant, was spared the fate which overtook the rest, but aho had hardly completed her twelfth year before the Inborn craving for human flesh broke out and she was burned to death for the crime of cani^ ball em,

THE UP-TO-DATE BURGLAR.

Work*

by Mean* T! Machinery, Sbt«C Time and Gets Rlonejr, The modern burglar Is adopting mo'c^ ern appliances. "The Jimmy bids fair to become a relic of the past before long, A recent burglary in France illustrates this fact. A gang of ingenious crack smew entered a banker's office armed with a steel saw of the newest construction, and a handy little gas entfine^ There was no need for the exerclfio Ot muocle, 'nor was there any hecessity for a good strong wrist at the saw, as there was at one time in the annals of famous robberies. The little engine was started, the saw put in the proper place, and the connexions made. Seating themselves s«ren£ly upon a couple of chairs near at hand, these modern burglars watched the tNie and rapid work of their appliances. The big safe mipht have resisted for honra the force of human hands, but the saw, impelled by the engine, it could not stand against. It promptly yielded up its contents of over ?3,000 of gold and bonds, and in a quarter of the time it would have taken to have committed the robbery under the old condition?, the burglars were well out of the building with their booty. *'r

Corn .Hlinrklng it,' lililtul*

Having ppent throb weeks with the ^reat corn shuckers of Palermo, Illinois, the writer thought of soiile things that

might be of interest to the REVIEW readers. Palermo is a beautiful Village of sixty-two inhabitants situated in the extreme northwestern corner of Edgar county, in the very heart of tho great corn country, here we find some of the most wonderful huskers of corn to bo found in the United States, and some of their wonderful work we desire to speak about. We had the pleasure to 6pen'l three pleasant weeks with a former Mont(»(mery county boy, Alfred Viern. Mr. Viers is doing well in that county, having married Miss Lizzie Parsho, of Sidell, on Oct. 22d, last, a most excellent lady, a former school teacher here. We met Oeo. Weaver who drove on the scales with a load of corn that weighed out *8 bushels and 10 pounds, shucked in three hour -. Money will be staked there that he is able to husk 1G0 bushels of corn and Ecoop it in 10 hours. Al.tJray has Bhucked up to date 4,500. Mr. Gray ehucks 113 bushels a day and will shuck 30 acres, himBelf. Among the strong armed shuckers is found Clint Jackson, who shucks 120 bushels a day, and able to wrestle any man in town at night. Edward Pillinger shucked 2.3 days and cribbed 2,380 bushels weighed on scales. This man is but 18 years old. His brotl er Charles shucks l.'M bushels and 20 pounds, from sun to sun. We saw other great work dono in this line by Chas. and Sain Weaver, who are well able to turn out one hundred and twenty bushels. Among the quick and speedy shuckers for a short time will be found Wm. bwank and Chae. Hickman, who ate able to shuck 20 bushels an hour. At Hildrette, two miles, is the large grain elevators the average is 100 loads of corn received each day. Average load 38 38 bushels. Several Montgomery county boys are livirg quiet and honorable lives in that country and are doing well farming corn. D. M.

I'oiiitry Association Meeting. At the meeting of the Western Indiana Poultry Association in tho small court room Saturday afternoon it was decided to place the price of admission at 13 cents for adults and 10 cents for children at the coming show. The show will be held in the Co. M. armory on north Washington street, formerly the old opera house. Tuesday will probably be children's day and all children admitted free.
