Learn About the Pulse.

Every person should know how to
ascertain the state of the pulse in health;
then, by comparing it when he is ailing
he may have some idea of the urgency Of
his case. Parents should know the health
pulse of each child, as now and then a
person is born with peculiarly slow or
fast pulse, and the very case in hand may
be Of that popularity. An infants pulse
40; a child of about 80, and from 20 to
60 years is 10 beats minute; declining
tn 90 at fonr-scnra- A hoolthy grown
persons pulse beats 70 times minute
There may be good health down to 60,
but if the pulse always exceeds 70 there is
disease, the machine is working itself
out; there is a fever or Inflammation
somewhere, and the body is feeding on
itself; as in consumption, when the pulse
is quick, that is over 70. gradually increas-
ing, with decreased chances of cure, until
it reaches ITO to 1870, when death comes
before many days. When the pulse is
over 70 for months, and there is slight
cough, the lungs are affected. There are,
however, peculiar constitutions in which
the pulse may be over 70 in health.

History of the New Era Grader,

Labor-saving implements are rarely the
result of an accidental or happy thought,
but usually the patient working out of an
idea or suggestion.
As a rule inventors seldom profit by
their own inventions, either lacking
means or patience to fully demonstrate
and carry out their idea.
The New Era is no exception to this
rule, but is one of those triumphs of per-
severance and study, which is the history
of all the more valuable improvements of
the age.
In 1867, MIR. w. J. Edwards, president
of this company, then residingin Clifton,
ILL.,, bought of w. J. Wauchope, the in
ventor, the patents covering what is
known as the Wauchope Grader, and pro-
ceeded to develope the machine. After
expanding thousands of dollars in expert
menting and changing, with varying sue
cess. he removed in 1871 to Chicago, built
shops on the present site, and commenced
business on larger scale. Meeting with
considerable success, and turning out a
good machine-its only fault being that it
required skilled operators to run it, yet so
great was the opposition to new mach
inery, and it cost so much to overcome
the prejudice against 1t. that the expenses
quite absorbed the profits. In 1873 Mr..
Edwards had the great misfortune to have
his shops, tools and stock of machines en-
tirely destroyed by fire.
civ 0f ctr inck
fortune, such disaster would have caus-
ed most men to give up, but so strong
was Mr.. Edwards faith in the ultimate
success of his machine, he rebuilt his
shops and continued manufacturing.
During this time Mr.. Edwards attended
most of the State fairs, taking premium
after premium, and in 1875 the Grand
Gold Medal of the State Board of Agri-
culture.
Up to this time Mr.. Edwards had devot-
ed his time to perfecting machine for
township roads, but becoming convinced
that wider field of operations lay in de-
veloping a railroad machine, and desiring
more capital, stock company was form
ed, styled the Chicago Wauchope Road
Grader Manufacturing Company, Mr..
Edwards being made president.
With the advent of the new company,
it was determined to entirely remodel the
old machine, introducing several new
patentable points and build especially for
railroad work, embracing all the better fea-
lures of the Wauchope, and remedying or
avoiding its defects. The result was the
New Era Road Grader and Ditcher, per-
lection in its line. -...E.
While manufacturing the Wauchope
Mr.. Edwards aim was to cheaper the
machine, to bring within the reach of all.
With the new management the aim has
been strength and capacity, regardless
of expense, and the result is, the capacity
of the New Era is only measured by the
power applied.
During the year 1881 the great demand
for railroad work has occasioned great in
quiry for improved methods, and quicker
and cheaper ways, and the sharper and
better posted contractors are not slow to
avail themselves of the advantages of the
New Era, and this season the sales in car
loads have crowded the shops to the ut
most, even then unable to fully supply
the demand. i|I&.

sixty per cent. in the roots. 1t will thus
be seen that whether tops be used for
pasture or hay, or for saving the seed,

A CHANGE OF CLIMATE.
The North Located at Last in the Torrfd
Zone.

A gentleman who has devoted his life
to the science of astronomy, writes the
Times in support of the theory of Blake,
the astronomer of Cleveland, Ohio, who
declares that, owing to the change in the
the earth, which change took place dur
ing a superior PLANETARY conjunction Oct.
II, 1877, the entire United States is now
in the torrid zone. The writer says that
the state of Ohio is directly upon the
new equator. He sends the Times the
mean temperature at Cleveland, Ohio,
for twenty seven consecutive years, and
from the table we make comparison of
the four years preceding 1877 with the
four years that have since past, by which
it appears that it has been 8.25 degrees
hotter in Ohio since that state came on
the equator.

How Children had tsFun,"

On summer day, they went to play,
Down the road to Deacon jones' pasture;
Dick climbed the tree, Vic looked so gay;
The hours were spent in fun and laughter.
That night, those youngsters yelled with pain,
Yes, the funny Dick and Victoria;
The gripes were of the green apple kind,
But quickly cured by CastOria.
