Be Careful of Wbwn You Buy.
The hog cholera is around through

should c inployraii expert who can di

for disease than to partake of the
meat of an animal that has died of
that hog pest, cholera.

A PLUCKY BULL
We have often heard of th bull
that attempted to butt a locomotive
off the track, but always considered
it as a libel on the bull, until last
Tuesday afternoon. Coming down
from Scranton on the D. I,. &: W.
road, we had just left Beach Haven,
wncn the train slacked up, and came
almost to a stand still. The cause of
the stop was a half dozen cows and a
young red bull. The latter was on
the track, and seeing the engine com
ing he braced himself with his head
down and tail up, and was. ready for a
tTght, and stood there until the train
was almost on him. The engineer
had slowed down, and when he came
close to the animal he opened the
cylinder valves and the steam came
mailing out. This was too much for
the bull, and he jumped about four
feet in the air, and made a dash from
the track, and concluded not to mash
the locomotive.
