A Three-Eyed Boy.

The Dayton Journal prints letter
from New Bremen, Ohio, which says:
Quite wonder has lately made its ap-
pearance, about eight miles north of
New Bremen, in the shape of q fine boy
with three eyes and but one ear. The
parents are a young married couple, who
came here to reside from the eastern
portion of Auglaise county about ten
months ago, and have been married a
little more than that period. The child
is about two weeks old. The parents
were astounded to find on the right side OF
the face an eye and an ear in their proper
natural positions, and on the left side OF
the face another eye in its natural posi-
tien, and about an inch further round on
the left side of the head third eye, all
perfect in form, but no ear where the
ear ought to be, the place for the left ear
being perfectly smooth and solid as any
other part of the head. The boy is
healthy, sound and bright as boy can
be. The eyes are perfect in sight and
action. When the eye on the left side
of the face opens or shuts its twin does
the same, both seeming to be controlled
and operated by the one set Of nerves,

Words of Wisdom.

Moroseness is always the evening Of
turbulence.
Charity is frequently best displayed
in helping others to help themselves.
Men, till matter be done, wonder
that it can be done; and as soon as it is
done, wonder again that twas no sooner
done.
Suffer not your spirit to be subdued
by misfortunes; but, on the contrary,
steer right onward, with courage
greater than your fate seems to allow.
Away sspeak the truth, but speak it in
q pleasing manner. Truth is the picture;
the manner is the frame that displays it
to advantage.
Men frequently do not exercise as
much discretion as some of the smaller
animals. In prosperous times all labor
ers have abundance. Then is the time
to save for winter and financial storms.
Angels in the grave, will not question
thee as to the amount of wealth thou
hast left behind thee, but of good deeds
thou hast done in the world, to entitle
thee to seat among the blessed
Koran.
The great wealth of nations has always
been and must always be based on agri
culture. Ont of the earth, directly OF
indirectly, comes all upon which men
subsist and need for food or raiment.
In its employment, come freshness and
an independence known to no other oc-
cupation.
Quarrels, like thunder storms, would
end in sunshine if it were not for the de
termination to have the last word. II
you are scolded or criticised just bite
you lips and keep still, and it will soon
be over; but if you retort you are In
''for three years of the war" Many
man pours himself in torrents of rain
for five minutes and then breaks out into
the sunshine of good temper again will
settle down into a three days dismal
drizzle if he is weak enough to insist on
having that last word.

Bee Stings.

Mr.. J. d. Hyatt, President of the
New York Microscopical Society, gave
an account of his investigations on the
subject of stings. These studies have
extended over period Of eight years,
but only recently have some obscure
points been made out, The general
form of the singing organs of the honey
bee is well known by microscopists. 1t
consists of horny sheath, within which
there are two stings, and these, when in
use, are thrust out. There is a poison bag
which discharges its contents into the
sheath. This is a point well known, but
it appears that the precise method by
which the fluid makes its way from the
sheath into the wound has not heretofore
been properly explained. According to
the generally accepted explanation the
poison is supposed 10 flow in channel
formed between the two piercers or
stings, and in this way makes its way
into the wound. Mr.. Hyatt advances
another hypothesis, and believes he has
positive proof that he is right, having
dissected and examined upwards Of a
thousand stlngs.
On examining a properly prepared
sting from honey bee we notice first
that the piercers are very sharp, and
barbed for some distance from the end,
there being nine barbs pointing upward
on each one. These barbs are gracefully
curved, and it can easily be seen that
when once they find their way into the
flesh it would be difficult to withdraw
them. This explains why the honey bee
sting still remains in the flesh, while the
stings of other insects, with finer barbs.
are withdrawn.
A more careful observation indicates
that the stings are tubes. There appears
to be a channel running through the
length of each one, having branches
which terminate in the notches just
above the barbs. After careful study of
these channels, many of which were
| found to contain air or water after mount
ing, and were thus proved to be veritable
channels, the question arose to their
use. The natural inference would be
that they were ducts for the poison, but
there could be found no possible connec-
tion between the poison gland and these
channels, for, as already stated, the
poison flows into the sheath.
After long and patient investigation
the explanation offered is as follows: At
the back part of the sting these channels
open into the sheath, and just in front
of that opening, attached to the stings,
is sort of valve which projects into the
sheath. When, in the operation of sting
ing, the piercers are thrust out, they
carry forN ard this valve 30 as to close
the front of the sheath, for which pur-
pose they are admirably adapted, and
the poison thus confined within the
sheath makes its way out through these
openings in the stings. Whence once
understood the operation seems very
simple. There are also some objections
to the common explanation. Gross Sec
tions of the stings show that the walls
are quite thin, but strengthened in some
places by internal deposits. The form
of the stings is such that no channel can
be formed between them to conduct the
poison.

A Mysterious Murder.

Willis James was believed to be the
murderer of five persons in Clark coun-
ty, NO., but he has been acquitted,
there being very slight evidence against
him. If he is innocent, the crime is in
deed mystery. The murdered persons
we're the Spencer family, consisting of
a farmer and his two sons and two
daughters. The father and one son
were killed in barn, the other son and
daughter in the house, and the re-
naming daughter in field close by. No
motive for this horrible butchery has
been discovered. James is a relative,
and it is not known that there was any
quarrel between him and the Spencers.
No robbery was committed. James
gave the first information of the crime,
having, as he said, found the bodies on
going to the house on an errand. There
was little blood on his handkerchief,
but he said that it had come from his
nose; and several splashes on his hat,
that looked as though they might be
blood, but chemist was not willing to
swear what they were. Conviction was
impossible on such slight evidence, and
no more could be obtained.

The experiment of tea growing in this
country is one of the most interesting
ever tried. Being successful in every
way, the time has come to go beyond
the experiment and cultivate it on a
large scale. In the Southern States,
many people have raised tea success
fully. It is hardy shrub, like thrifty
evergreen. The ordinary height of the
cultivated plant is from three to six feet,
and we are told the wild growth reaches
fifteen or twenty feet-in fact, tree ten
inches in diameter. Tea is raised from
small nuts or seeds. Three or four of
these are dropped into a hole and cover
ed with earth two or three inches deep.
The weeds must be removed, of course,
and at first little shading is necessary
until they are large enough to supply
their own shade. They also require
some pruning, and the leaves are not
collected for use until the plant is three
years old; when nine or ten years, they
are cut down to make room for the young
shoots. Tea gathering, which takes
place when the leaves are small, young
and juicy, is process of great niceness
and delicacy; it requires delicate, clean,
skilful hands; those of women and chill
dren are best fitted for the work, and
each leaf must be plucked separately
from the twig with great care, SO as not
to injure the yorng leaves just coming
out. After gail ing, the process Of
preparation for use is quite elaborate in
rolling, drying, clipping and packing
ready for transportation. They pack the
tea while warm, in box perfectly dry;
the evaporation of water and the drying
changes the color to dark brown or black.
Teas are named from the size and age OF
the leaf and the locality in which they
are raised. But we seldom taste this
favorite herb at its best, for the Chinese
send us an inferior article. What an ad.
vantage we gain by growing our own tea
In latitudes adapted to its growth every
farmer can have his tea garden. Foul
pounds of green leaves make one pound
of prepared tea, and one acre will pro-
duce four hundred and fifty pounds o.
tea.
