Egypt's Scattered ObeliskS.

Thirty obelisks transported from
Egypt from time to time are now stand
ing in various parts Of Europe. OF
these there are in Rome eleven, of
which four are higher than the New
York obelisk. The highest of these,
and the highest in Europe, being LOG
feet without the base, stands before the
church of St. John Lateran. The ODE
lisk in the piazza of St. Peters is 50 feet
8 inches high. Both of these were
mounted ON high pedestals. The ped
estals of the St. John Lateran obelisk is
II feet high, making the entire height
of obelisk and pedestal $50 feet. The
pedestal of the St. Peters obelisk is a
trifle less than 80 feet high, making
the W ole height of the monument
1872 feet inches. If Commander Cor
ringe has brought with him the entire
pedestal on which the New York ODE

because there are no ideas behind their

good health and dirty faces. But one
day the youngster appeared with gen.
teel little shoes, embroidered stockings,
a suit of bunting and a snowy leghorn
hat. AS she paraded herself before her
playmate, she completely captured her.
"Why you look like some rich young
one," was the exclamation of delight;
"but you won't play with me any more u

TANNERS SYRACUSE RIVAL.
Timothy HHfey Of a4eaidies Lives Near
~ Five Weeks Without Food.

syracuse herald.
Readers of the Herald will rem enlber
the case of Timothy Hefey of Geddes,
who fell backward into IL salt bin in
Block No. 8, in Geddes, and was seri-
ously injured about the spine. This
occurred On the 18th of June. The
injuries were in the spine, which was
SO badly fractured as to cause paralysis.
Since that time he has been helpless.
For 4 short time after this he endeav-
ored to take a little food, but feeling
that it distressed him, he was advised by
his physicians to give over the attempt
to take food, as the paralysis had ex-
tended to the lower part of his stomach,
and he could not digest the food. For
about a week the only nourishment he
took was lemonade, and Of that very
little at a time. After this he found
that even that distressed him, and he
gave it up and began to drink water.
From that time to the present not Il
particle Of food Of any description has
passed his lips. His wife has been in
the habit since his accident of giving
him bath once a day.
For week he slept from an hour to
tt1 AOul t1Ilu a. 1lslll sllLef tn1S pain, out
during the remainder of the time. up
to the present, he has not slept at ali.
During his long fast the unfortunate
man has remained perfectly rational
until within the last day or two. when
he became slightly delirious, although
still able to recognize his friends. 1t
was announced last night that NORTH
cation had set in, and the man was
slowly sinking and could not live long.
But the physicians say that but for the
modification the man might have
lived long time yet, so wonderfully
the constitution he possesses. He is
now slowly dying His wife very
worthy woman, has Il family of six chill
dren, and is worthy the sympathy and
material aid of charitable people. 1t
is in contemplation to start u subscrip-
ton paper soon in her behalf, which
will be circulated by a well-known Syr-
acuse gentleman: our informant. who
will vouch for the worthiness of the wo-
man. The case of Hefey is one of
the most remarkable upon record, and
is scarcely susceptible Of explanation.

RAISING APPLE TREES.

Please describe in the columns of your
paper how to raise apple trees, when and
how to plant the seed; also the grating
process, and how to make grating wax
EFFINGHAM, LII. In.
Answer:-It would require more time
and space than we can devote to the sub
iect in one issue of the Prairie Farmer to
give a suitable answer to our correspond
ent's questions, hence we can only reply
in a general way, and very briefly, to
them. If his intention is simply to oh
tain trees for his own use it will be much
the best plan to obtain trees of such va
rieties rs are suited to his locality from
some reliable nurserymau than to raise
them from scotland for several import
ant reasons. Bat if he desires to engage
In raising trees and grating popular sorts
upon Seeding stocks that is quite anoth-
er matter. The soil best suited to the
apple is one that is rich ana moist rather
than dry, aud either naturally Or arti-
ficialIy drained. The seeds are sown III
autumn, the ground, OF course, having
been previously well prepared. When
the plants appear IN the spring they are
to be thinned to about two inches apart
and kept free from weeds until Of proper
size for removal. At one or two years
they are taken up, their tap roots short
ened so that lateral roots will be produc
ed, and set out in nursery rows four fee
apart, where they are to be well cared
for until the time comes to transplant
and remove them to the orchard. Their,
are several modes Of grating, and as w
shall shortly have an article on that sub
jeet especially, we need not stop to detail
any of the processes now. The usua
time for this work is in April, although
sometimes it is done in March, and il
other cases, not until May; free circu
lation Of sap at the time is Indispensable
! to success.
