NOT A JEW AFTER ALL. An Undertaker Sued for Taking Hebrew Money to Bury a Gentile. Several days ago the dead body of a man was found on the plank road near Hackensack River. The body which was described as that of a Jewish peddler, was taken to Hoboken by Coroner Wiggins, and the Hebrew societies of that city employed Undertaker Crane to bury it. When the body was being prepared for interment yesterday morning one of the watchers suspected that the peddler was not a Jew, and expressed his doubts to several of his race who had assembled to attend the funeral. The matter was discussed, and it was found that the body was not that of a Jew. There was a good deal of indignation at what the Hebrew society members denounced as an imposition practiced upon them. Mr. Hauser, a prominent Hebrew, called on the undertaker who had. it is alleged, represented that the dead man was a Jew, and demanded from him the return of $15.50, paid by the societies for the expense of the interment. Mr. Crane declined to refund the money, and thereupon Mr. Hauser commenced a suit against him in Justice Strong's court, to recover the amount. The peddler was hurried yesterday in a pauper’s grave. Joseph Snow, Gunning Cove, N. S., writes : “I was completely prostrated with the Asthma, but hearing of Dr. Thomas’ Eclectric Oil. I procured a bottle and it did me so much good, that I got another, and before it was used I was well. My son was cured of a bad cold by the use of half a bottle. It goes like wildfire, and makes cures wherever it is used.”

Ancient Grave-Stones. [Camoridge (Ohio) Jeffersonian.] On James Hannah’s farm, in Madison township, there was found last week what appears to be the head and footstones of an ancient grave. Both were standing, but the soil had covered them. The head-stone was of the size of sixteen by twenty-four inches, and had a cross and the date 1760. Other inscriptions were scarsely legible. Those who saw it believe that the date indicates the time of burial. If so, it must be the grave of some Spanish or French explorer. If you would make a lasting and earnest friend advise that person suffering from any Urinary trouble to use Days Kidney Pad. Sold by Dorwin & Holthouse.

FLAX STRAW. How to Cut it, How to Cure St. To farmers of Adams and adjoining counties, who desire to harvest their Flax crop to the best advantage, I will offer the following advice: Cut your Flax earlier than you have been accustomed to. Have no fear about your seed not being ripe. It will mature to better advantage after it is cut than if it was growing. Use a mowing machine; cut close to the ground; let it lay for two or three weeks. It will not mould or sprout while laying in this condition more than if it was standing in the ground. When yonr seed has matured and you wish to take up your flax to house, stack or take off the seed, use a horse rake, in the early part of the day while the dew is on. Rake, up about as much as you can take care of the balance of the day. It you want to take the seed off clean a piece of ground about twenty feet square, near your flax field. Commence tramping or rolling about 10 a. m., and you will get off your seed about as fast as one team can haul it from the field. Stack your straw neatly. While your horses are tramping, if you are going to have a rain storm, cover your seed heavy with tramped straw. Do not use a threshing machine to take off the seed. I buy unwillingly lots of flax seed at $4 and $5 per ton. Dark colored or swath-rotted, and green straw that is spread out to rot. will be the most desirable and bring the highest price. The curing or rotting can be done on rhe farm. It will not cost in labor over fifty cents per ton and will be worth $2 per ton more than unrotted when brought to the factory. Price, from $3 to $6 per ton. I will not purchase wet straw nor weeds. All information in regard to curing and rotting flax straw will be given at the factory. Farmers having last year’s crop will tiud market for it at the factory. TIIOS. F. MYLOTT, Prop’r. Decatur, July 15. 4w

Henry Clemont Almonte, writes: For a long time I was troubled with chronic Rheumatism, at times wholly disabled; I tried anything and everything recommended, but failed to get any benefit until a gentleman who was cured of Rheumatism by Dr. Thomas Eclectric Oil told me about it. I began using it both internally and externally, and before two bottles were used I was radically eured. We find it a household medicine, and for Croup, Burns, Cuts, and Bruises, it has no equal.” Sold by Dorwin & Holthouse. Tell it to your neighbors and friends, that there is a cure for every disease of the Kidneys, Bladder and Urinary Organs in Days Kidney Pad. Sold by Dorwin & Holthouse.
