A Sharp Boy.

Ar q late hour Friday night the pc

sitting on the steps of the City Hall
and when he had been stirred up he ex

of the night. At an early hour in the
morning he walked into the American

''Do you run to Grass Lake?"
YES"

After few inquiries he was accepted
and duly tagged, and when the wagon
went down he was among the parcel

Thin Seeding Of Wheat.

Mr.. WV. j. THOMAS, Sandy Spring,
Nd, gives the following in the Ame1i-
can Farmer as the result of twenty-five
years. experience:
"More than twenty years ago, when
drills came into use here, one of tho
strongest arguments in their favor was
that We could save half q bushel of wheat
per acre lit was customary to SOW two
bushels per acre by handy by using the
drill. I could see no good reason why
less quantity would not do sown broad
cast; consequently l sowed field by
way of experiment, using one bushel
and four quarts per acre, at the same
time doubling the quantity s0wed on one
land. The yield was twenty -six bushels
per acre on the field; I did not keep the
one land separate, but the difference was
very perceptible. That sowed at the
rate of two bushels per acre was much
thicker than the part sowed with 1-8
bushels, and the heads were not much
more than half as long. So satisfied
was with this trial that l have con-
tinued to SOW 1-8 bushels per acre for
the last twenty years, and have raised, I
think, quite as good crops as most of
my neighbors. In 1876 Brother S. P.
Thomas had just purchased drill, and
from some cause some of the gearing
gave way, and in renewing it one of the
cogs was misplaced, causing the drill to
SOW three pecks per acre instead of five.

the fact to me when I got the drill, l had

hick, and the telling part was in the

Railroad on VesuVius.

A railroad now reaches to the top
of Mount Vesuvius. The grade is
sixty three feet in one hundred, and
the cars are moved by cables and a
stationary engine. The height is
about four thousand feet above the
sea level, and will not compare with
the engineering skill of the Union
Pacific railroad, where the highest
point is double that of Vesuvius.
The long, tiresome ride up Vesu
vius of seven hours is now made in
eight minutes. The Vesuvius rail-
road would doubtless have been
sooner built if engineers had not
deemed it almost impossible to Sc
cure the rails to soil of so crum-
bling nature on so steep a grade.
AS built, thick platform of wood,
not unlike a gigantic raft, is laid
over the whole road bed, and the
rails are thus cleared of the shifting
cinders, lava and detritus which
make up the cone. The station is
twenty-one feet under the lava, and
it is thought that in case of erup-
ton the last was in 1870 the de
struction of the railroad would not
necessarily follow.

A Progressive Race.

Tallahassee Floridian: An en-
terprising darkey, of a calculating
turn of mind, called a few days
since on a gentleman who owns q
garden in the western part of the
city, and represented that the gar
den was partly growing up with
grass, which, if left to 90 to seed,
would render it impossible to grow
vegetables on the spot next year,
and proposed to cut it down for
certain sum, which the gentleman
agreed to pay. He then went to
the gentleman who had recently
rented the premises and made him
the same proposition, which was
again accepted, the latter not know
irg, of course, that the owner had
agreed to pay for the work, as the
darkey had studiously kept that to
himself. After cutting the grass
and collecting pay from both gen.
tlemen, our hero proceeded to the
owner OF COW, sold the grass for
double what be charged for. cutting
it, pocketed four times as much
money as the work was worth,
and went on his way humming,
"Jesus my all to Heaven is Gone"
Now, who says the African is not

Witty but True.

Some of the sayings of that pious
but witty English clergyman, the
Rev. Rowland Hill, were remarkable
for hitting the nail on the head.
Not another blow was needed to
drive it home.
Being very much grieved at the
conduct of some of his congrega-
ton, who were frequently unpunct-
ual, he once offered the following
prayer:
20 Lord, bless those who are in
their places, have mercy on those
who are on the road, and save those
who are getting ready to come"
He once said of man who knew
the truth, but seemed afraid to
preach it in it's fullness:
"He breaches the truth as dom
key munches a thistle-very eau
tiously."
On a wet day number of per-
sons took shelter in his chapel, dur
ing a heavy shower, while he was
preaching. He remarked; "Many
people are greatly to be blamed for
making their religion a cloak, but 1
do not think that those are much
better who make it an umbrella"
Entering the house of one of his
congregation, he saw a child on a
rocking horse. Dear mer' ex-
claimed the aged minister, show
WI ndrously like some christians!
there is motion, but no progress"
A protested christian, who was
addicted to drinking, asked him I'M
pertinently, "Now, do you think,
Mr.. Hill, that glass of spirits
would drive religion out of my
hearth"
NO." he answered, "for there is
none in it,"
A lady who protested religion,
but whose daily practice was not in
harmony with it, once said to him,
81 am afraid lest, after all, shall
not be saved.' 81 am glad to hear
you say so, "replied Mr. Hill, "for
L have been long afraid for you, l
assure YOU"

Table Manners.

A writer in Lippincott's Maya
zine criticises American eating, re-
peating the old and well-worn com
plant. but putting it into a some
what fresh form:
''In 1905 lady who had returned
to this country after spending IL
years in Europe, told me she was
going abroad again-that she could
lot live here. She had passed six
months among her friends and re-
lations, all well-to do New England
people, she affirmed, and their hab
its and customs shocked her.
Everything is jumbled together on
the table, she declared. One is
confronted with medley of incon-
gruous edibles-well enough in
their way, but, presented at once,
they sicken taste and destroy ap-
petite. AS if it were not enough to
see them spread before one, they
are constantly thrust upon ones
notice. There is no conversation
here-there can be none. l am

How a Husband Was Lost.

Boston Post: When the late La
fayette S. Foster was a young and
rising lawyer he wooed and was en-
gagged to young lady whose family
enjoyed larger social prominence
than his own. The wedding-day
had been fixed and the couple were
talking over the prospective tour,
as a part of which young Foster
proposed that they should spend a
few days with his parents, who re-
sided in a town some distance away.
The lady rather reluctantly consent
ed, but said: 81 will go this time.
but in the future you must not eX
pect my visits to your parents to be
very frequent You must remem-
Der that our associations have been
very different" Surprised and
shocked by this cold-blooded de-
probation of the father and mother
whom he loved und honored, the
young man paced the floor, the
sport of seething and conflicting
emotions. Finally, taking his hat,
he turned to the lady and said: 81
am glad l have found you out in
time; you may go to the devil"
The rebuke might not have been
choice in style, but was earnest in
spirit. Thenceforth their ways lay
apart, and she was not the gamer.

This is the origin Of the phrase
81 acknowledge the corn" In 1928
Mr.. Stewart, member of congress,
said in a speech that Ohio, Ken
lucky and Indiana sent their hay.
stacks, corn-fieIds and fodder to
New York and Philadelphia for
sale. Mr.. Wickliffe, of Kentucky
called him to order, declaring that
those states did not send hay stacks
and corn-ields to New York for
sale.
"Well, what do you send?" asked
Stewart.
"Why, horses, mules, cattle and
hogs"
"Well, what makes your horses,
mules, cattle and hogs2 You feed
one hundred dollars worth of hay
to a horse. You just animate and
get on top of your hay-stack and
ride off to market. How is it with
your cattle? You make one of
them carry fifty dollars worth of
hay or grass to the eastern market.
How much corn does it take, at
thirty three cents a bushel, to fat

"Why, thirty bushels"
"Then you put thirty bushels

and said:

That Text.

A pious old lady, who was too
unwell TO attend meeting, used to
send her thick headed husband to
church to ind out the text the
preacher selected as the foundation
Of his discourse. TIE poor Ounce
was rarely fortunate enough To re-
member the words of the text, or
even the chapter and verse where
they could be found; but one Sun
day he came home in hot haste and
informed his wife that he could 20
peat every word without missing a
syllable. The text was as follows:
"An angel came down from Heav-
en- and took a live coal from the
altar"
"Know every word" said the
husband.
81 am anxious to hear it," said
the wife.
"They are nice words" observed
the husband.
81 am glad your memory is inn
proving, but don't keep me in sua-
pense," said she.

will say the words, for know them
