ceding tlio election, he sliall be entitled
to vote though liu shall not havo paid
taxes.
IV. As to tho voters. 1. Any quall
fled citizen of tlio district has a right to
challenge any voter, though Ids name
bo on tho registry list, and tho election
board aro rcemlred to recelvo tlio proofs
phbltcly, nud to ail in It or reject tho

2. On tho petition of five or more citi
zens of tlio county, stating under oath
that they bellevo that frauds will bo
practiced nt thu election about to be
held in any district, it shall bo the duty
of tlio court of common picas, or of n
Judgo thereof, to appoint two Judicious,
sober and intelligent citizens to act as
overseers of said election, who nro to'
belong todllTcront partlcs.oxcopt whero
both Inspectors belong to tho samo pol
itical party, and then tho overseers aro
to bo taken from tlio opposite political
party, and then tho overseers aro to
liavo tho right to hn present with tho
olllcers of election, to keep a list of vo
ters, to challenge voters, nnd generally
to perform tho same duties as Inspec
tors. The uct Is full of penalties and forfeit
ures; but in those are to bo enforced by
courts of Justice, It Is not necessary to
set them forth for Mm guidance of assess
ors, election olllcers ami voters. A pop
ular election will bo very dl lllcult If all
the provisions of thu law bo strictly en
forced. Indeed, it is not easy Iosco how
election olllcers aro lo llml time to re
ceive the ballot of tho qualified voters
in some precincts, if thoy investigate
thoroughly nil tlio issues that may bo
brought beforo them; and when It Is
considered that all tho elections aro
thrown upon tho general election, and
that separato tickets aro to bo voted for
State, county, township and municipal
olllcers at tlio samo timo that Judicial
questions nro to bo investigated and de
cided, It is apparent that many citizens
will bo liable to lose their chance to voto
unless thoy are vigilant and voto early.
Every man should sco for himself Hint
he Is registered, taxed and, If ho Is a na
turalized foreigner, that ho Is provided
with his proper papers. Tlio law will
bear, as It was designated to do, very
heavily on naturalized citizens. It cre
ates all possible obstructions to their
exercise of the right of suffrage, uud
nothing but vigilance aud perseverance
on their parts can sccuro their rights.

Arsenic Eaters in Duropo.
Dr. Lowy says that in Syria ami tho
lloltemlaii parts of iho Rlcsengcblrgo
thero nro families in which from timo
Immemorial tho habit of arsenic-eating
has been transmitted from father (oson.
Thcso peoplo nro nlwnys very silent
about their mania, nnd ouly by mere

with their per verted appetite. Llko tho

healthy looking, having finely blended,
delicate skin, which is free from every
kind of pimples nud Insects, aud re
markably exempt from eruptive dis

thclrcarlicst youth, whciiaboutuquartcr
ofn grain or whllo arsenic, (oxltlo of
nrscnlc,) measured by tho eye, is taken
dally. Tho doso is gradually increased
with tho ago, and an old nrsenlc-eatcr
will only feel coinforlablo when ho has
taken nt Icasl two or three grains dally.
lhey assert that tho poison keeps them
uprightly and healthy; that it protects
tliem against nil ehroulo diseases; that
lliey have, especially Just after taking
it, an agreeable feeling about tho ehest;
breathe freely,and havo n good appetite.
Thu efrect of taking nwny the nrecnlc

to that produced by the deprivation of
opium, tobacco, or spirits, only the ef
fect Is more Intese. Tho person thus do-

In such it way Hint ono can well beliuvo

The Deacon's Trial. A few years
ogo there lived on tlio outskirts of a
pretty village, In New Hampshire, an
old farmer who was known nmong his
neighbors as "Deacon Stubbs." In ear
ly life tho deacon had been rather wild,
aud It was only when somewhat advan
ced in years that ho was converted from
tho error of his ways under tho minis
tration of good old Parson Brown.
From that timo Stubbs had been n zeal
ous nnd exemplary member or tho vil
lage church. Rut the deacon had one
soro trial of patienco. Old Brlndlo, tho
best cow of ids small herd, was wofully
given to kicking. Manya time, after
tho deacon had nearly filled his three
gallon pall with rich milk from her
uddcrr a sharp quick motion of her
right hind leg would send pall and con
tents flying half way ncross tho barn
jurd. The deacon had tried coaxing,
ho had tried kicking, ami Anally come
to tho conclusion Hint nothing would
over break that cow of her bad tricks
One lino morning In June, just as tlio
sun was peeping over the eastern hills,
Stubbs sat down upon his three-legged
6tool to milk old Rrindle. Everything
went on well; the animal stood meekly
quiet, and tho deacon began to hope
that ho should have no mure trouble
witlt her. Tlio pail was almost full.tlio
creamy froth already overtopped tho
brim, when, whizz! tlio cow raised her
foot ; tho pall was upset in mi instant,
and its lacteal treasures scattered fur
nml wide. "I swowl" oxclnlmcd tho
deacon, with emphasis. Springing to
his feet ho seized a heavy stick and be
gan to belabor the poor cow with all his
might. As tho blows roll thick and fast
n shower or oaths such as ho hail not
uttered beroro since lie had "jinod
church" issued from (hudeucoii's mouth.
Desisting at length from his exercise,
ho was lliuiidersfiiick, on raising Ids
eyes to behold his own minister Parson
Rrown, looking over tho fence within
six feet oNiim.with hands uplifted uud
faco ghastly with horror, "Why, Pur
son Rrown! II " stammered tho
deacon. "Deacon Slubbs!" groaned
tho Parson, "I am shocked,! urn griev
ed to hear such profnuu langungu from
a member of my church 1" Tho deacon
humbly confessed his fault, anil express
ed tho grcatcs.1 contrition fur his fall
from grace. "Hut," ho added, "hut,
Parson Drown, I am persiiadisl that I
shall never enjoy religion so long as I
keep that 'ere keow."
To keep up tho fertility of our pas
tures It is evident that wo must do our
beat to check tho growth of such vege
tation as I.s rtjected by stock as well as
that which would injuro stock. If It
were eaten. Rut It Is not enough to do-
stroy the useless and Injurious plants;
wo must encourago tho growth of tho

boy became angry at .something, and
struck his playmate a sharp blow on tho

gan to cry plteously. Tho boy stood
looking on sullenly for n minute, nnd
then said: "I didn't mean to hurt you,
Katie; 1 am sorry." The little rosy
faco brightened instantly. Tlio sobs
wero hushed, and sho said: '-'Well, If

Taking up a linndfull us ho spoke, ho

Into tho barrel, and bit n kernel or so,
and gave It as their universal opinion
that there wasn't n pen In It.
"I tell you thero is," said tho old cap
