A Beatuurksbla Toad. I In Surinam there is a remarkable . toadlike creature, the female of which , carries the young in a series of cells in > the thick skin of the back, which as- » sumes a strange honeycomblike appeari ance. When this lady toad is carrying ■ her nursery about with her, she is a 1 very repulsive looking object. Single handed she would be quite unable to cope with the important question of placing eggs where they will be most . favorably disposed for hatching, and for this she has to rely on the good services i of her mate. Soon after the eggs are i laid tlioy arc taken up by the male and pressed, one by one, into the cells in the thickened sxin of his partner’s back. There they grow until they fit closely to the bexagonalxorm of their prisons, each of which is closed above by a kind of trapdoor. After a p< riod of some 82 days the eggs reach their full development, aud produce, not tadpoles, but actually perfect little toads. The reason of this is that the tadpoles, which require to breathe the air dissolved in the water by means of their external gills, con’d pot exist, in the cells, and consequently this stage of development is passed through very rapidly within the egg. In due time the young toads to the number of 80 or 100 burst open the lids of 1 their cells, poke out their noses and. make their entrance into the world. The mother toad rubs off the remains of the cells against any convenient stone or plant stem and comes out in a brand new spring outfit. —Knowledge. People Wonder. People wonder at the great results obtained from the use of Dr. Marshall’s Lung Syrup. It is a remedy that has given uni . versa! satisfaction wherever usedr Mothers praise it as a medicine for children. It can be given to children without danger. It is very pleasant to the taste, and children cry for it. This Cough Syrup is a family medicine and should be in every house. You cannot afford to be without a bottle of Dr. Marshall’s Lung Svaup. It is guaranteed to give satisfaction. By dealers everywhere, 25, 50 and sl. o Colonel A. G. Patton has filed an answer to the suit, brought against him by the 1 southern prison board. The claim that he owes $30,000 is denied, and an offset is alleged which far exceeds the claim of the state. The Indiana Federation of Trades, which has been in session at Fort Wayne, elected Edgar A. Perkins of Indianapolis president and J. J. May of Logansport secretary. They declared in favor of the government ownership of railroads. ' ? There is one medicine which every family should be provided with. We refer to Chamberlain’s Pam Balm. When it is kept at hand the severe pain of a burn or scald may be promptly relieved and the sore healed in much less time than when medicine has to he sent for. A sprain may be promptly, treated before inflammation sets in, which insures a cure in about onethird the time other wise required.; Cuts atid bruises shoulD. receive immediate attention, before yhe parts become swollen and when Chamberlands Pain Balm is applied it will heal them without matter being formed, and without leaving a scar. A sore tlifoat may«be cured in one night. A piece of flannel yampened with this liniment and bound on over the seat of pain, will cure lame back or pain iff the side or chest in twenty-four hours. It is the rnpst valuabe, however, for rheumatism. Persons afflicted with tnis disease will be dedelighted with the prompt relief from pain which it affords, and it can be depended upoii to effect a complete cure.

Cincinnati, Oct. 15.—When car No. 23 on the east end electric line was going down the long grade in Martin street, at the foot of which it was to cross the Louisville and Nashville tracks, it refused to obey the motorman.
