At the aoraer the street the small boy's leisurely demeanor suddenly changed, aw) stooping to piok up a brick he shied it artistically at a skurrying cat. In the next square a newly painted door Btep attracted his attention, and be stopped to embellish it with tbe end of a stlek. another small boy was encountered. Words of defiance were exchanged, thero was a souffle, and one small boy passed on with his Jacket torn. But there was a satisfied look on his faoe be bad bloodled the nose of tbe other small boy. Several minutes were pleasantly employed in the next square encouraging a fight between two street dogs, from which he was only diverted by a firstrate opportunity to heok some strawberries from a wagon while the owner was delivering some berries in the rear of the house. Of oourse, our small boy was lust one minute late at school.

Good Nftws for tbe Sick. 7 It will be good news for those who are afflicted with diseases of the throat, lungs, eyes, ears, or any of the respiratory organs to know that Dr. Von Aloschzisker, now at the Terra Haute House, can cure them. Dr. Ton Mosohzisker, by placing continually proofb before the publio of his trestment of theee and other special diseases of the air passages, hss now acquired sn undisputable reputation. There are in this country four, certainly not five, skilled aurists, though many proflaas to treat diseases of the ear. Among these Dr. Von Moschzisker Justly claims the largest experience. He also Justly claims superiority for his treatment of the respiratory organs, esjpecially catarrhal affections. He has for years held a high reputation for all diseased of the eye requiring medical treatment or surgical operation to restore sight.

Historical.

In the yssr of 66, Yespasion was sp. pointed by Nero to wage war agsinst the Jews. In a short time hs was mads emperor by the army, and acknowledged by all the nations in ths east. In the year 70 the Romans under the command of Titus, Isld seige to Jerusalem. He devastated tbe city, and destroyed tbe temple, so that "not ono stone was left on another," thus fulfilling the predictions of our Lord and tbe prophets. One million, one hundred thousand persons perished during the seige, and the Jewa were scattered into all nations^ Eighteep centuries later, Owen, Pixley & Co. inaugurated the system of retailing clothing aad gents' furnishing goods st New York Jobbing prices at 804 and 606 Main street, Terra Hauto, saving tbe consumer one big profit. .5
