But it is never we'll to wait so long

How Watch Gases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture Of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar i'm
provements in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of
silver case was made of several pieces of
psetal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softsned the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every ona knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering sotensit.
To test the superiority of the Keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of 3 OF. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed,
and it will not give, while case of same
weight of any other make will give enough
to break the crystal. The Keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints. ezse

three plants being enough in hill. In
removing the weeds and stirring the soil,
too much care cannot be bestowed so as
not to disturb the vines after they have

indeed, much the larger proportion-of

Business Poultry.

In riding about the country, says the
New York Tribune, one seldom sees
pure blooded poultry. The fancy fowls
are IN nearly every instance, owned by
business men. Why is this? Is it be.
cause farmers are lacking in enterprise
and intelligence? l think the bottom
facts are that mixed lot of poultry
proves most profitable, being most
hardy and laying best. Where one
breeds for the one idea Of 'looks,n the
tendency evidently is to lessen the egg
production. These are my conclusions
after twenty years experience, in which
time | have tested most of the new
breeds as they came along 1t is en-
tirely legitimate for any one to keep
fancy fowls if they have taste in that
direction, and can afford it as others
keep fast horse or a "poodle dop,'
but the real business hen is not often
the most noted for beauty. Many new
breeds have been introduced; we have
plenty of poultry magazines pressing
their merits, with a. host OF energetic
champions writing up their alleged su-
perior excellences, and yet both poultry
and eggs bring better prices than in the
years gone by. The profit from keeping
poultry depends on the management,
feed. care, etc. of our fowls, and the
Kimball enterprise. (Kimball, Brule County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1883, 1883-07-27
Lawyers in a Republic.
From the New York Mail.

From the New YORK Mall
1t has been somewhat boastfully said
by member of the profession that this
is a government by lawyers, ard Sena-
tor Bayard virtually asserted as much in
his address to the students of the Yale
law school yesterday when he remarked:
"Under our American system the legal
profession is actually part of the gov
ernment itself, as much SO practically as
if nominated and commissioned in Of
fice." 1t is reported that there are now
10000 lawyers in the United States, and
the legal profession is growing more
rapidly than any other, except that OF
medicine. Iflawyers can save nation
there ought to be no doubt as to the Sc.
curity of our republic. Perhaps it is be.
cause there is SO much truth in the state
ment concerning our being ruled by
lawyers that we are governed so poorly.
Certainly there is profound need OF
reform in the government Of the Ameri-
can people, municipal, state and federal,
and the subject of Senator Bayard's ora
ton. The responsibility of the Legal Pro-
fession in a Republic. is one which
ought to have the serious attention of
our 10000 lawyers.
American lawyers:
"In no country in the world" SAID
Burke, fully a century ago, with refer
ence to America, sis law so general
study and this remark still holds good.
Law is, and always has been, regarded
there as road leading to all greatness.
Usually about two-thirds of the members
of Congress are lawyers. They swarm
in journalism. They become railroad
men or great tinanciers. They pull the
wires, organize parties, and play q
political part altogether out of proper.
ton to that which belongs to the
same class here. Our lawyers even the
greatest of them, have rarely had
more than secondary position in poll
tics. On the other hand, from Hamil-
toms time to our own, the same class in
the United States has always been in
the very front rank ofparty warfare. It
l5, moreover, a much more numerous
class than with us. We have, to be sure
no lack of lawyers, but an average
American town will contain three times
as many members of the profession as
an English town of equal size. Ameri-
can lawyers might claim with consider
able cogency that they cultivated not
merely the graces Of their profession
that they were accustomed to look at
new legal questions raised by the cir
cumstances of modern society with a
freedom and breadth of view which is
very rare here"
Strange that the more p.etentious
American newspapers can not write in
that way about their own country.
