MOUSE row ER.

A man in Scotland has trained a couple of
mice, and invented machinery for enabling
them to spin cotton yarn. Itis so construct
edfhat the mouse is enabled to make atone
mcnt to society for past offences by twisting
and reeling 100 to 100 threads per day. To
complete this, the little pedestrian has TO
run 1Oi miles. This journey it performs
every day with ease. A lmlGpenny's worth
of oatmeal, he says, at Is. 3D. per peck,
serves one of these tread-mil culprits for
five weeks In that time it makes 110 threads
per day, being an average of $3.50 threads
of "a ill.,, which is nearly nine lengths of the
reel. A penny is paid TO women for every
cut in the ordinary way AT this rate a
mouse earns Cd. every five weeks, which is
one iarthing per day, or Is. Cd. per annum,
Take Cd. Off for board, and Is. for machinery,
there will arise Is. clear profit from every
mouse yearly The canny Scot is going to
make application for the lease of an old
empty house. 100 #. by 80 A., and so f. in
height, which will hold ten thousand mouse
mills, besides sufficient room for keepers and
some hundreds of spectators. Allowing e200
for rent and task-masters, el0,000 TO erect
machinery, and $500 for the interests, there
will be left balance of e2, 300 per annumi
OF course, the "hundreds of spectators" are
likely to be also made to pay for their house
room, no less than the mice -BUilder

AGAIN AND AGA1N.-Our readers may think it strange that we so often urge upon their at tention a. medicinal preparation! Alteady have we, for a number of weeks, urged the i'm. portances of a supply of Goes Cough Balsam in the. house, ready for immediate use. But our excuse is the vast amount of sickness, sor. row and death that are the immediate result of sudden coughs colds and pulmonary attacks ; while thousands of our children are dying from ;croup. aud lung complaints. sa1ime and Sexperi- ence have proved that Goes Cough Balsam is the most speedy and reliable preparation ever known to the world; Like magic it relieves the irritation of the throat, removes the stop. pages that prevent breathing in croup, and heals,aH soreness of the throati chest aud lungs. No man should neglect to supply his family with Q safe and reliable medieipe like Goes Cough Balsam, any more than he should neg. feet the supply of their daily bread. tItc6sts but forty cents, and the bottles .sontain twice as much as those of any. others remedy at.ths same cost, while in merit it Is edbefi6r No all others. All drug stores keep 1t for sale.
