GRAIN RAISERS REFUSE to submit to the
wasteful and imperfect work of other Threshers
when posted on the east superiority of this one, for
saving grain, saving time and doing FAST thorough
and economical work.
THRESHERMEN FIND 1T highly advanta-
geous to run machine that has no "Beaters,"
"Pickers" or "Apron," that handles Damp Grain,
Long Straw, Headings, Flax, Timothy, Millett and
all such difficult grain and seeds, with ENTIRE
EASE AND EFFECTIVENESS. Cleans to
perfection saves the farmer his thresh bill by
ira saving of grain makes no "Litterings requires
LESS THAN ONE-HALF the Usual Belts,
Boxes, Journals, and Gears easier managed; less
repairs one that grain raisers prefer to employ and
wait for, even at advanced prices, while
other machines are 'out of jobs"

TIE FIRST Ram BATTLE AT SEA.-Now
that the prompt and peremptory though
accidental. sinking of the British iron
clad Vanguard by her escort, the Iron
Duke, has called public attention so
sharply to the use of the ram in naval
warfare, it ought to be put on record
that the first modern fight in which this
method of settling an international diff
Guilty was decisively adopted. was fought
by the victorious commander on a hint
given him from this country. A writer
in the New York World says: allude.
of course, to the sewers naval engage
ment of July 1s. off Lissa, on the Dali
nation coast, between the Italian feet
of Admiral Persanon and the Austrian
fleet of Admiral Tegethoff.
The Admiral. who was one OF the
simplest as well as one OF the bravest OF
men. told me that on reading the ac-
count of the preparations which were
made at New York in 1862 to fit out the
Vanderbilt for the purpose of rammlng
and sinking the Confederate ircr clad
Merrimac, he made up his mind that
this would prove to be.the best way OF
dealing with armored vessels In action.
and devoted himself to a special study
of the qualities involved. When he was
ordered down with his small mixed
souad.on to Lissa, early in July 1856, to
relieve that place, then besieged by the
powerful ircn-clad feet of Admiral
Porter. his intention was to test his
theory on this subject. As he went
iuto action on the 10Th be signailed all
his shiys, bear down on the enemy
aud sink her," His own flagship, the
Ferdinand Max, if my memory serves
me RIGHTLY, was an iron-clad coo horse
power. His captain, Balon Won Stern
ek, had orders to go for all the iron
claGs in the enemy's line, one after
another, and did so with great spirit
and skill The Ferdinand Max success
fully ran three Italians aboard, captured
the flag of one, crippled another, and
sank the third, the Re d'Italia. in two
minutes, with her whols crew OF SIX
hundred men. The Austrians tried to
save these poor feAows, with humuh
Inconsistency, but only succeeded IN
rescuing a few. Admiral Won Tege-
thoff told me he never saw men behave
II ore gallantly than the Italians on this
ship. The clew cheered defiantly as
The huge ship careerd over. and the
sharpshooters went down fling their
fiiies.

- Il IS rather snrprising. writes

~ 1t is rather surprising, writes a
Paris correspondent, to see how the
dress of even the most fashionable
American ladies at home occasionally
differs from the Partisan model. which
they all profess to copy. For instance
a party of elegant and wealthy New
Workers arrived in Europe about SIX
weeks ago, all wearing bonnets with
immensely-broad. :urned-up brims' the
hike of which had never been seen IN
Paris during the entire season. SO much
attention. in fact, did their novel head-
gear excite that they were all forced to
pelay an early visit to the fasnlonao
milliner.

French Economics.

When a Frenchman in a CAFE puts two
of the little slabs of white sugar 10 his
coffee, and the remaining two 10 his
pocket, it is not meannesS, but economy.
The four consecrated to the demltasse
are paid for; aud the purchaser may
carry them home to the c~anary.bird, pre-.
sent them to the children of the con
cierge as a means of maintaining pleas
ant relations with that person, or keep
them for eau sucree. Life is not as
large as in the United States, where there
is elasticity in the incomes. Here they
are fixed; so much a year, month, and
day. The line about the budget of ex-
pense is rigid, especially in the case of
small renters, who abound in France.
The man Of 5000 francs a year rides on
the top of the omnibus for 3 sous; reads
the paper in one of the small reading
rooms for 4 sous; smokes l or 2 sous
worth Of Caporal tobacco a day, in a
pipe; goes to the theater once a week
for 3 to 5 francs, and to the cafe chan
tant once or twice, where his consom-
nation costs him 10 sous each time; he
eats 2-franc dinners, followed by that in
~dispensable black coffee, for 6 sous, with
l or 2 sons gratuity, at one of the second
class cafes. The chief part of his time he
strol.ls on the b~oulevards, looking in at
the windows or the people-never failing
under any circumstances, to admire a
pretty woman-anG in sitting in the pub
lie gardens, all of which is gratuitous
