A Jackson Township Horse Case.

In the case of Wm. M. Thomas vs. Riley Evans, both of Jackson township, Justice Spencer, of this city, rendered a verdict Monday in favor of Thomas for $100 and eosts. The case was tried Friday and was en appeal from 'Squire Reeves, of Jackson township. Mr. Thomas had sold Evans a horse for $100, which the latter claimed he had sold back to Thomas for $65, and heace was only owing him the difference. The court decided otherwise.

Kinder's open hack with John Mulvihill holding the ribbons, took a jolly party out to the shooting match north of Charlottesville today. John was dressed in full livery and looked as proud as a peacock in full feathers. The party consisted of Sheriff Pauley, Ed Mitchell, Dock Dye, Kim Duncan, Chas. Welch and Geo. Gappen. It is not expected that the boys will bring home any prizes, and in fact did not expt ct any when they started, but just wanted to see John start out in his plug h«t and brass buttons.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to care deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound orj imperfect' hearing, and when i) is.entirely •closed, Deafness is the result, -aod unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal cotdition, hearing^will be destroyed'forever -nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed4condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused' by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure Send for circulars free.

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.

ANTON MOCHTY.

He Is the Biggest Boy In the World and Has Twelve Fingers and Twelve Toes.

The largest boy in the world is Anton Mochty, and he is a peasant boy living with his parents, well to do people, at Haindorf, in lower Austria. He is 10 years old.

This growing colossus weighs at the present time 150 pounds, his breast measures 45 inches from armpit to armpit, and his head is 22 inches in diameter. He is exactly 5 feet high.

As a small child he was so phlegmatio that he refused to learn to walk for four years after his birth. With the beginning of his fifth year he began to creep and after a little while learned to walk.

When a baby, Anton was thought rather small. On his sixth birthday, when there was a party at his father's house, the boy first attracted attention on account of his large features.

During the last two years he has gained over 70 pounds in weight and 2 feet in height.

Nature gave Anton six toes and six fingers on each hand and foot. All of these members are perfectly developed

and well shaped except that the small fingers stand out from the Test. The joints, however, work like those of the other fingers.

Anton's footgear is expensive. His wooden shoes as well as those of leather must be made to order.

He wears his father's trousers, coats and vests, shirts, underwear and hats aud would be taken for a young man of 20 if it were not for the freshness of his complexion and his youthful manners.

Where nature is so generous in one direction she must be expected to even things up. So it happens that Anton is by no means a bright boy, but he enjoys average intelligence and a sunny temper. In his villagei they call him "the rubber ball" on account of the rotundity of his features.

He comes from normally built parents, and his numerous brothers and sisters are distinguished neither for largeness nor for extraordinary toes or fingers. Anton has naver been a big eater. —New York World.

Pronunciation Matches.

A pronunciation match is a line way of entertaining a party of clever young people in a dull evening hour, number can play. One is elected as leader. At first he will call out a letter, as A, and each person must think quickly while he counts five and be ready to tell the name of a city in the state agreed upon before the contest begins.

For instance, the leader, while he connts five, points to one of the company, who must give the name of a city beginning with the letter A, or C, as the leader may announce. When one answer has been given, he quickly connts again and points to another person until some one fails to respond, I when he is declared leader and also pays a forfeit.

It is very amusing and teaches people to think quickly and keep their wits about them. It is also sometimes played by choosing sides, as in a spelling match, and in that case each one who misses takes bis seat, and the side which re- 1 mains on the floor longest is declared the winner.

Bag of Lnck.

Children who have had one agree that quite the funniest thing for a child's party is a "bag of luck." It is a big, very stout paper bag a flour bag would not be amiss for the inside, but it must be made gay and tied with bright floating ribbons on the outside. In this bag put enongh pretty trifles and bonbons to supply the little guests and hang the bag high in a doorway. Give to each Child a pretty stick tied with ribbons, blindfold them, and as they pass under the bag give each one a chance to strike' and break it open. Each child has three chances, and the one who makes the first hole is given a prize. Candies, flowers and things not readily broken should fill this bag.—New York Post.

Skating.

Do you wonder why you cannot skate as well as your companions? Perhaps yout skates are not properly ground. For fancy skating you must have what is known as the right angled edge.

There is not much fear that girls will knowingly skate on ice that is not safe, bnt it is just as well that they should be told that the snow ice is that which is most likely to give way. Black ice, like black frost, is the hardest.

How Ned Expressed It.

Ned held up his pencil, which had lost its rubber. "Oh, dear," he exclaimed, "this lead pencil has come uncorked 1"—Youth's Companion.
