Accidentally Poisoned, On the 31st ult., Ransom Beckwith, a quiet, steady young man, 23 years of age, re siding V Sraethport, McKean county, feeling unwell went into Armstrong & Co's store to get a stimulent. The bot tle containing whiskey aud one contain ing aconite were on the same shelf, side by side; by mistake he took down the bottle of aconite and drank several swallows before le discovered his mistake. Medical aid was immediately summoned but he was beyond the power of human aid, and died in about twenty minutes. He was an unusually tem perate young man, and was not, - and never had been la the habit cf using intoxicating liquors of any kind, and is viry highly spoken of by the neighbors. Cameron Herald.

Remember the place at Blakely's, on Centre street, St. Mary's. im It often becomes desirable to insert screws in plaster walls, without attaching them to wood-work, but when we turn them in the plaster they give way, and our efforts are in vain. And yet a screw may be inserted in plaster so as to hold light pictures, &o., very firmly. The best plan is to enlarge the holo to about twice the diameter of the screw, fill it with plaster Paris, such as is issued for the tops of lamps &c, add bed the screw in the soft plaster. When the plaster has set, the screw will be held very strong. m A man named Tease went to see a lady named Cross, and teased her until she censcnttd to be Cross no more. The paper manufacture has become a very important industry in the United States. Sometimes, however, there is a great difficulty encountered in securing a sufficiency of material for the manu facture. Ibis has inspired the inventive faculty of several persons to search ioi means calculated to enlarge the source of supply. Straw, wood and niauy kinds of fibrous substances were thought of, but nothing that has yet been discovered can compare with the old material cotton rags for beauty, strength and durability. The addition of some linen to the cot ton basis forms fine writing paper, but certain kinds of grasses, old papers, &o., are worked into the more common grades. There is more paper used within the limits of the United btates than any ot the grand divisions of the old world. Much of it 14 used witu wanton prodigal ity, it being: appropriated for kindling fires, &c. In Europa every scrap of it is carefully preserved, and it is never found lyiDg about in the gutter or streets of the cities. The Beautiful New Chromo "Pet." This is the appropriate name of a new, superb, and wonderfully-taking 16x20 inoh chromo, made in Boston by the best chromo-maker oi the country, and now the exclusive property of the Pittsburgh Peoples Mouthly, the popular, illustrated paper for the home. Large and elegant as it is, it is given away "in the sheet" to every subscriber at only $1.60 a year. Every body has by this time heard of this monthly. It has just entered its third year, has a very rapidly-growing circu lation, and over one thousand ministers on its list; universally popular, and with its tinted paper and elegant typography, it is as beautiful a paper as is published in this, or any other country. It makes home matters a speciality; its illustra tions are generally in that line, and once taken, it becomes invaluable to both mothers and children. Good agents are allowed a very large commission and are now netting on it from ten to twenty dollars per day, depending on the agent and localitv. iiWttSi've.territory allotted live agents if applied for at once, and good references given.

City vs. Country Newspapers The city weekly newspaper is usually made up from reading matter used and paid for by the daily paper; hence it costs but little ; while the country paper on account of limited amount of local advertising riatronae, connot afford a daily, and must make up its weekly from matter expressly prepared for its columns. The city paper is made general in character, adapted to one part of the country as well as another, and conse quently has a wide field for circulation ; while the country paper must be made local and adapated to its particular lati tude, hence its circulation is made lim ited to particular locality. But does the city paper answer 'the purpose, and sat isfy the wants of tho country reader? By no means. The paper published in the city real izes thousands of dollars from, its adver tising patronage, while the local country paper gets a meager support from this source. The principle clerk in one of the agricaltural newspaper offices to New York informed us that the "alvertisiog patronage ot their paper amouncd to an annual income of over one hundred thousand dollars." And yet the people of the country expect the local paper to be furnished at a lower price than the city monopoly. And while he pays cash in advance for his city paper, he puts his home paper off with a promise to pay when he sells his produce after harvest, or when he gets ready, and can best spare the money, at the end of one to three year. The tendency of such procedure on the part of some delinquent subscribers, as well as the recent act of Congress taking away from country publishers and their own county subscribers the only boon they ever allowed them to have, will re puire the utmost economy in the con ducting of the country papers. The best way for subscribers to en courage their papers and keep to their present standard is to be prompt in their payments. Exchange. Shrewd. They have got a cat in Vicksburg, Miss., who has been amusiug herself by sitting upon a nest of hens eggs. At last accounts she had suc ceeded in getting three chickens safely from the shell, and entertained hopes of a large brood. Here is a theme for Dar win. How did the cat learn to hatch eggs? Where did she gain intelligence that eggs produce chickens? Now, we look upon this as a very extraordinary affair. Cats,' as a rule, are not partial to eggs, but chickens come from eggs and cats arc fond ot them. The cat must have reasoned as fol- ! lowp : "Why should I go about hunting for scrapes of meat, or rats, when 1 haVe only to sit upon a nest ot eggs to provide myself not only with all the food I de sire, bnt with lood of a delicacy and juci ness that is extremely welcome to my palate." And they tell us animals do not reason. Of course Vioks-burg, will not encourage this cat in her remarkable undertaking, but if we belonged to that place we should feel proud that we had such an intelligent fellow-citizen.

Commenced its Third Year. We are in receipt of 'he Pittsburgh Peoples Monthly (Illustrated), for June. This number keeps fully up, in the ex cellence of its illustrations and the va riety of its reading matter with those which have gone before. A new serial called "Scarlet," is oommenced and many original contributions from writers of repute promised. June begins tbis monthly's third year. The publication of an illustrated 16-page paper out West, was rather a hazardous enterprise, but we are glad to know that the ven ture is a snecessful one. The circula tion is over double that of last year, and it beara on every page the impress of prosperity. With its beautiful illustra tions for the home; its fine tinted paper, its "Household" and "Boys and Girls" departments, we don't know a paper in the country, which surpasses it in ele gant appearance, or attraotiveness. It now gives away to every subscriber a very choice and rich chromo, or a 24x 30 inoh engraving. The lact that it has over one thousand ministers on its lists, should be a sufficient guarantee to families that, as a paper for the home, it is arrayed on the side of virtue, purity, and morality.
