WIFE AND ADOITKD
SON.
A case 'involving n moat intricate)
legal problom and all the features of a
romanco was bruught to tho attention
of tho court at Humiliation on tho 12th
Inst. In 1872 Jacob Stahley, an old
man of eccentric habitc, died in Shav
er'it Creek, leaving property worth $30,
000. A protracted settlement of his
estate reduced this amount to about
$25,000 and over this a long and stub
born legal controversy was waged.
Stahley left a widow and a son. Tho
widow has been his fifth wife, and tho
son, who was also named Jacob was
supposed to be tho child of his second
wif, though it was found necessary to
legitimatize him by an act of Assembly.
In early life tho eon Jacob left home,
and in 18G0 married. He lived with
his wife fourteen years, and in 1874
suddenly disappeared, since which time
no trace of him could bo obtained un
til a short time ago, when he oluntari
ly put himself in communication with
Si. S. Loytlc, an attorney of Huntingdon.
In 18C8 young Stahley and his wife
went to Rebecca, Neb., where he was
appointed postmaster, but some irregu
larities resulted in bis being sent to the
House of Correction at Detroit, Mich.
Ho was extravagant and improvident,
and it was doubtless, his father's know
ledge of these qualities that induced
him to make a peculiar will. The in
strument was executed in December
1870, and two years later the testator
died, it provued that ttie real estate
should bo rented by his executor and
the rents paid annually to his son,
Jacob, at wlioe death tno property
should go to his heirs, including his
wife. It also provided that tho execu
tor might sell the real estate at his dis
cretion, and that all moneys at tho
death of tho ton, Jacob, should bo
equally divided among his heirs.
In 1872 young Jacob and his wife
returned from the West ofter the death
of his father. He had left numerous
creditors in this State, and as his fath
ers will did not provide that tho an
naity should not be liable for the son's
debts tho latter s creditors obtained
judgments against him and attached
tho money in the hands of the execu
tor, so that be never received any ol
it. Being childless, Stahley determined
upon obtaining an heir by adoption and
selected a boy 3 years old, named
George Lightner, son of a very poor
man in Stono Valley.
A rECUUAIt DISAITEAltANCE.
Stahley continued to live with his
family until February 13, 1874, when
he very mysteriously disappeared, leav
ing a noto for his wife, in which he
stated that he had concluded to drown
himself and that his body would be
found in tho Juniata River. His coat,
hat and other articles of clothing were
fouud at the place indicated, but al
though diligent search was continued
for several weeks in the river, no trace
of his body was ever found. After
waiting for seven years Mrs. Stahley
took out letters of administration on
his estate and a distribution of the
property left by old Jacob Stahley was
made equally between her and tho
adopted son. Soon after her husband'
supposed death, Mrs. Stahley remarried
and located in one of the extreme
Western states, where she is still living.
The adopted son. who is now in his
fifteenth year, resides with bis natural
parentB in Huntingdon county. A
considerable portion of his share of the
division has been expended on his cd
ucation.
Now comes the sequel of this singu
lar story. In January last Stahley.
whom every ono believes to be dead,
wrote to M. S. Leytle, uuder the assum
ed name of W. Vv. Williams, Ho was
then living in Boston, but now resides
in North Digbton, Mass. He made in
quiry after the Stahley fam'ly, and par
ticularly about tho estate of old Jacob
Stahley.' Mr. Leytle, having been his
attorney, at once recognized the. hand
writing, and during tho correspondence
that followed Stahlhy threw off his dis
guise and acknowledged his identity.
He baa never been awoy from Massa
chusetts, he says, since his sudden dis
appearance thirteen years ago. In his
letters he expresses repentanio for bin
erratic course, but says that under his
assumed name ho has lived an exemp
lary life and has acquired a good rep
utation. Ue now desires that his
father's estate, long sinco divided be
tween Lis wife, who has since remarried,
and their adopted son, be recovered
and transferred to himself, and to this
end his attorney brgan tho preliminary
proceedings in the prosecution before
Judge .burst. Whether tho estate can
be recovered is a question over which
there is much difference of ouininn
inasmuch as tho court six ears
ngo accepted tho supposition of Stan-
icy ueam uy reason oi ins protracted
absence and his expressed determin
ation to commit suicide.
A Lion-Tamer's Nerve.
Crockett made the greatest name for
himseit ol any Pon tamer, not in Eng.
land alone, but in France, Germany
and America. "I remember," says
Archibald Forbe, "the time when the
eix lions were loose at one timo in Ast.
ley's. Tho Sangers had sent the beams
on from Edmonton on tho night before.
Nobody to this day knows how they
got out of ihtir dens: but it was
thought at the timo that some ono of
the grooms with whera tho manager
was very unpopular, he used to fine
them so merci esslv had lnt tli.m
loose maliciously, tiiat they might get
at tho horses. There they were, any.
now, looso in the place, smelling the
horses, and mad to get at them. They
had already killed a man, and had eat
en him whoa Crockett arrived. With
out halting an instant, ho dashed in
among them single-handed, with only
a switch in his hand, and I'm blest if
he didn t manage to den them all single
handed. That-was nerve ior you."
A "Dull Boy."
One remarkable point in the career
oi mo late Henry Ward' Ueecher will
bo noted lv thn hnnpfnl nn,l nviinni
fathers of dull boys tho lateness of
the period at which his intellect began
to assume shape. This wonderful
orator, poet, actor and pulpiteer was
a dull boy. He loved to wander in tho
woods. Ho hated books, while ho had
a warm side for nature. At school he
was considered something of a dunce,
ono biographer says. His desiro for
reading was awakened by a sensational
sea Uorv, and ho camo near being a
sailor. But at hat point tho intellect
vivified, and out of the chrysalis came
tho great man whoso fame rlihd tho
world. Let not this bit of history bo
lost upon the parents who aro anxious
ly watching thu development of boys
who we moro for fishing than for

An Arab Thoatre in Cairo.
Lirgo roso colored bills posted on
tho doors announced that tho troupe of '
Abou Ulmlilo el lvabbanl, ol JJamas,
was to glvo a scries of performances of
tho love tragedy of "Emir Mahmoud,"
in tho presence; of tho nobility ond
gentry of tho neighborhood. Tho
theatre was crammed, it presented a
ptcturcsqo scene. The gallery was
filled with the white turbans and bluo
smocks of tho lower classes. Tho gen
try, dressed in colored statnboulincs or
black caftan and fez, occupied tho pit.
As for tho boxe, they wcro set apart
for tho nobility, who woro all in irre
proachable European costumes. No
ladies wcro there savo two English
girls in a stago box, probably daughters
of an officer belonging to tho army of
occupation. Lnudgosip and laughter
roso from nil sides. Tho purveyors of
refreshments kept up a mo9t infernal
din. Tho theatre was stifling with tho
smoke of cigarettes.
At length tho curtain rose, but it
wiu somo timo before tho nctors oould
get a hearing. They were attired as
Bedouins, and gesticulated furiously.
Thero were no actresses, tho female
roles being played by young men, as is
tin custom in the cast. It was tho
same with tho ballet, tho girls being
replaced bv youths, who whero got up
so skillfully that at a certain distance
tho delusion was complete. Tho audi
encc applauded not with their hands
bnt wit1! their feet and walking sticks.
Tho delivery of tho actors was tho
most monotonous and somnolent that
could bo imagined. The solemn, com
ic, or tender passages were all given in
tho same tone. In short, their acting
resembled that of a child who haB
learned a fable by heart and recites it
without any knowledge of what ho is
saying. Tho singing was of the same
kind ; it was ono monotonous nasal
howl or shriek, which either drove vou
to sleep or out of tho theatre. For

Onre for Piozen Feet.
For years I suffered great pain dur
ing tbo spring on account of frozen
feet. My feet wero frozen severely
once, and as a result thoy froze easily
afterward. When tho first warm
weather came, the itching would be al
most intolerable, and the flesh so ten
der that 1 could not wear a shoe, no
matter how largo I tried turpentine,
spirits of camphor, coal oil, etc., and
all tho liniments for frozen fee, that I
could hear of, and yet had no relief.
Ono day a friend gave me the follow
ing recipe : "Put enough boiling
water in a pail to cover your feet j in
this dissolve all the powdered alum
possible ; as soon as you can bear it,
place your feet in the water and soak
them for two hours, adding hot water
and alum a9 tho water in tho pail cools
keeping it as hot as it can bo borne "
I tried this ono evening, and tho next
morning drew on my boots (something
1 had not dono for wieks), though mv
feet wero a little sore ; by noon this
soreness was all gone, and I had nn
more trouble that season. I have
frozen my feet several times since, but
as soon as they became painful, I tried
the hot water and alum bath, and it
has never failed to effect a cure. Cor.

Managing for Eggs-
In relation to failures in tho rare of
fowls, the Dakota Farmer says :
When tho poultryman has made hi-pr-
parations and begun his operations,
ho is often disappointed at not receiv
ing a fair return in eggs for the atten
tion and care bestowed. The majority
of failures arise with those who -have
given tho fowls all they can eat, and,
with a liberal supply of ground oyster
shells, ground bone, grave), fresh water
and green food, no eggs reward the
persevering poultryman. Tho cause
of failure is that the hens aro overfed.
It is always a mistake to keep food be
fore them, and, though a variety should
bo given, care must be exercised not
to feed a full meal except at night. It
tho food is so given that the hens will
not be satisfied with the quantity they
have received they will hunt for mpre,
and keep busily at work. This avoids
idlenes" and prevents them from pull
ing'feathers or becoming too fat. In
tho morning tho soft food may be giv
en, but it is best not to give quite
enough rather than a full allowance.
Then scatter a few grains in cut straw,
dirt or litter, and let them get to work
scratching. At night giyo a full meal.
By keeping the hens warm, busy and
in moderate condition thoy will lay
well
Why Shoes Are Thrown at Wuddines-
The custom of throwing one or more
old shoes after the bride and gr iom,
either when they go to church to be
married or when they start on their
wedding journey, is so old that the
memory of man stretches not back to
its begining. Some think it repre
sents an a-sault, and is a lingering
trace of the ciiH-m aiming savage na
tions of carrying oway tho brido by
violmcc; otheis think that ii is a relic
of tho ancient law of exchango or pur
chase, and that it formerly implied tho
surrender by the parents of all domiii
ion or authority over their daughter.
It has a likenesh to a Jewish eu-tom
mentioned in the Bible, Thus in Deu
leronomy we rad. that when the bro
ther of a dead man refused to imrrv
his widow fhe asserted her indepentl
eneo of him by "loosing his shoe."
Also in Ruth, when tho kinsman of
Honz gavo up his claim to tho inheri
tance of liuili and to Ruth also lie in.
dicnted his a-ceut by plucking off his
shoe and giving it to Boaz. It was
also tho custom of the middle ages lo
plac tho husband's shoe on tho head
of tho nuptial couch, in token of his
domination.
The Toboggan Slifle.
"What is this toboggan business
wo read so much about in tho papers T"
no nn in u urauu iwver avenue
storo tho other day as ho and his wife
stood warming their bands at the stove.
"Why, n toboggan is a high plat-
lorm wiin an icy untie runmog down.
"Yes."
"Vou get up thcie with your sled,
take a pretty girl on for a partner, and
down you go like greased lightning."
"Girls aro willing, are they V
"Oh, yes."
"Lots of 'em around 1"
"DozenH of 'em,''
"Now, that's erongh P said the wife
as she turned on him. "If there was
twenty toboggans between hero anj
tho city hall you'd go right along and
sell them butter and eggs and then jog
home with me without a slide 1"
"Yes, I reckon I'd havo to," re
marked the old man with an awful
sigh, and then ho ohanged tho subject

What Voinpeii Did of.
A Rochester reporter chanced to bo
standing besido the delivery desk of
one ot tho city libraries when a well
dnsscd lady of thirty approached tho
desk, Tho librarian was cutting the
leaves of a new copy of tho "List Days
ol I'ompcii, every now and then stop
ping to read a passage from tho fa
mous novel. Tho lady glanced around
listlessly and said i "I would like to
find something new in tho way of nice

know, something light and amusing.
That is a nice looking book you havo

"I bcliovo he died of an eruption.
Yes, this is rather tragical," replied the
librarian, with the faintest smile im
aginable. Tho lady departed after eo
curing something "light and amusing,"
and without tho slightest idea that she
bad furnished any amusement.
BUSHING- TO DEATH
In the attempt U wim the Niagara
Whirlpool Itapids is no more reckless or
dangerous than to trifle with disease
wbicli each day secures a stronger hold
and hastens the end of life. This it
specially true of rlieumastLm, neuralgia,
sciatica, and nervous headache, which
though perhaps slight at first are ex,
tremely dangerous, ond steadily secure a
firmer grip until at last tho agony is unen
durable and sudden death brings relief.
These diseases can he cured by the use
of Athlophoros which, in connection with
Athlophoros Pills, never fails when prop
erly used. Iieod tho following from those
who have tested it.
C. A. 6teward, Kelson, Fa., says: "Ath
lophoros has saved my mother's life. Last
spring, two of the best physicians In the
county,said she could not live two months.
Fheliau been helpless fur a year, had to Le
lifted off aud on the bed, limbs all drawn
out of shape, cords contracted, flesh sore to
the touch, could not be lifted or touched
without screaming aloud. The soreness is
all gone, the cords relaxed, appetite goo
and gaining every day, and I think a few
moro bottles will cure her."
New Haven, Conn.
I had the neuralgia for three months in
my face. Went to tho doctor ; ho gave me
somo medicine to take internally and a
preparation of chloroform to put on the out
side, but it did not do any good. Could
not sleep night or day. Had suffered so
much and so long that I was afraid it
would drive mo crazy. Was told to try
Athlophoros by a party it had cured of tbo
rheumatism. After taking part of a bottle
the palp all left as by magic, and now I am
well, with not n sign of rcuralgia about me.
