New, four-room house for sale In ' spiders the size of buckshot in the boy's ear. A horse dealer in Washington is being sued by a man who bought a horse of him on the ground that numerous sores on the animal were covered up at the ' time of the sale by pieces of cowhide, glued on so skilfully as to deceive the purchaser and caused him to pay a more or less fancy price, in the belief that he was getting a sound beast. This item contains elements of humor, of course, ' but it would seem that after the funny man an 1 the civil law both have their fling at the horse dealers the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals ' should step in and do something. Wallace Tittswath's cow got into his i yard at Clove Valley, and tumbled into a well fourteen feet deep. A derrick was rigged over the well, a hay-hoisting apparatus attaclfM and with the aid of a team of horses the cow was raised to top. Then the rope broke and the cow went to the bottom again. A stronger rope was obtained, and one end was tied to a peach tree. But when the cow reached the top a stcond time the tree came up by the roots, and back the cow tumbled again. A third time she was hoisted to the top and this rime planks were placed over the well. The planks broke tinder the weight and tbe beast made a fourth descent. A fourth at tempt resulted in landing her on hard graund. but that moment the derrick fell and knocked down Martin D. Lewis who was assisting to the rescue. His skull is fractured and he is expected to die. '/Anc and Grinding; make Devoe Lead and Zinc Paint wear twice HS long as lead and oil mixed by hand. A Great Bargain r.n easy terms.
